Impaired synaptic inhibition and enhanced aversion encoding by lateral habenula neurons during Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol withdrawal.

Eun-Kyung Hwang, Deborah Daphne, C. Maddox…·Carl R. Lupica

This study shows that Δ9-THC withdrawal increases LHb responsivity to aversive stimuli through impaired synaptic inhibition and altered E-I balance.

Retinoic acid-mediated homeostatic plasticity drives cell type-specific CP-AMPAR accumulation in nucleus accumbens core and incubation of cocaine craving

Eun-Kyung Hwang, Amanda M. Wunsch, Marina E. Wolf

The paper shows that retinoic acid signaling in nucleus accumbens medium spiny neurons drives CP-AMPAR accumulation, contributing to cocaine craving incubation.
