The paper examines stress-related biochemical changes in rats after withdrawal from cocaine, heroin, and sucrose, finding reinforcer-specific and shared adaptations in CRH and noradrenergic systems.

This study develops a method to efficiently knock down specific miRNAs in the rodent brain using Cas9 and AAV vectors, demonstrating functional effects on neuronal migration and AMPA receptor activity.

This study examines the effects of adolescent THC exposure on behavior, brain structure, and gene expression in rats, finding altered psychological and brain development but no clear support for the Gateway Hypothesis.

This study compares how cocaine, heroin, and sucrose self-administration affect perineuronal nets in different regions of the rat prefrontal cortex during early and protracted withdrawal.

This study uses ex vivo 1H-MRS to identify metabolic changes in a two-hit schizophrenia model, showing LPS and stress effects on brain metabolites.

The paper examines changes in mTOR pathway gene expression and phosphoprotein levels in rat brain regions after morphine self-administration and extinction training, finding persistent amygdala-related changes.
