This study shows psilocybin improves cognitive flexibility in rats under food restriction but not after anorexia exposure, with changes in striatal dopamine signaling.

This study shows psilocybin affects social behavior in male and female mice differently over time, with sex-specific changes in social preference and dopamine signaling.

The paper identifies transcriptional differences in striatal projecting cortical neurons that distinguish rats susceptible from resistant to activity-based anorexia, linking gene expression patterns to metabolic and neural functions.

This study uses computational models to show that psilocybin increases reward acquisition in rats by enhancing task engagement through altered forgetting rates and reduced loss aversion.

This study shows psilocybin improves cognitive flexibility and body weight in female rats with activity-based anorexia, mediated by 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptor mechanisms.
