Journal ArticleDOI

Stress- and pharmacologically-induced behavioral sensitization increases vulnerability to acquisition of amphetamine self-administration

TL;DR: It is shown that vulnerability to develop amphetamine SA may be influenced by stressful experiences, and that previous contact with the drug may enhance a predisposition to amphetamine-taking behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Corticosterone levels determine individual vulnerability to amphetamine self-administration.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the stress-related activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis may play a role in the pathogenesis of psychostimulant addiction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dopaminergic activity is reduced in the prefrontal cortex and increased in the nucleus accumbens of rats predisposed to develop amphetamine self-administration.

TL;DR: The HR rats displayed a specific neurochemical pattern: a higher DOPAC/DA ratio in the nucleus accumbens and striatum and a lower one in the prefrontal cortex, corresponding to the mean of these compounds for the three structures studied over the three environmental conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased locomotor response to novelty and propensity to intravenous amphetamine self-administration in adult offspring of stressed mothers

TL;DR: It is shown that prenatal stress (restraint of the mother during the last week of pregnancy) may contribute to an individual's vulnerability to develop amphetamine self-administration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hippocampal type I and type II corticosteroid receptor affinities are reduced in rats predisposed to develop amphetamine self-administration.

TL;DR: Differences in affinities suggest a relation among amphetamine self-administration, control of the corticosterone feedback loop, serum levels of cortic testosterone and characteristics of hippocampal corticosteroid receptors, and the implication is that pharmacological manipulations of Corticosteroids receptors may reveal new therapeutic strategies for drug abuse.
