Stress-Induced Reinstatement of Drug Seeking: 20 Years of Progress.

TL;DR: The phenomenon of stress-induced reinstatement, first shown with an intermittent footshock stressor in rats trained to self-administer heroin, generalizes to other abused drugs, including cocaine, methamphetamine, nicotine, and alcohol, and is also observed in the conditioned place preference model in rats and mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Repeated N-Acetylcysteine Administration Alters Plasticity-Dependent Effects of Cocaine

TL;DR: Findings indicate that N-acetylcysteine selectively alters plasticity-dependent behaviors and that normal system xc− activity prevents pathological changes in extracellular glutamate that may be necessary for compulsive drug seeking.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of extended access to high versus low cocaine doses on self-administration, cocaine-induced reinstatement and brain mRNA levels in rats.

TL;DR: The escalation of cocaine SA under LgA conditions is dose-dependent and is associated with heightened susceptibility to drug-induced relapse, and the characterization of neurobiological alterations that accompany escalated SA should facilitate the identification of mechanisms underlying the onset of human addiction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictable individual differences in the initiation of cocaine self-administration by rats under extended-access conditions are dose-dependent.

TL;DR: The present findings indicate that predictable individual differences in cocaine SA under extended access conditions are relevant only at low doses and are surmountable by increasing the available dose of cocaine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Repeated N -Acetyl Cysteine Reduces Cocaine Seeking in Rodents and Craving in Cocaine-Dependent Humans

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that N-acetyl cysteine diminishes the motivational qualities of a cocaine challenge injection possibly by altering pathogenic drug-induced plasticity.
