Time course of morphine's effects on adult hippocampal subgranular zone reveals preferential inhibition of cells in S phase of the cell cycle and a subpopulation of immature neurons

TL;DR: Examining how morphine regulates progenitor cell cycle, cell death and immature SGZ neurons as well as the progression of SGZ progenitors through key stages of maturation revealed that morphine increased the percent of BrdU-IR cells that were type 2b and decreased the percent that were immature neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extracellular signal-regulated kinase in the basolateral amygdala, but not the nucleus accumbens core, is critical for context-response-cocaine memory reconsolidation in rats.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that ERK activation in the BLA, but not the NACc, is required for the reconsolidation of context-response-cocaine associative memories, which suggests that contextual drug-memory reconsolidations in Pavlovian and instrumental settings involves distinct neuroanatomical mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of chronic morphine on the dentate gyrus neurogenic microenvironment

TL;DR: Data suggest that following chronic morphine exposure, factors within the neurogenic microenvironment are maintained or upregulated to compensate for decreased SGZ proliferation.
