Pharmacological effects of acute and repeated administration of Delta(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol in adolescent and adult rats.

TL;DR: The effects of initial exposure to Δ9-THC may not be entirely predictive of the effects of repeated exposure, and adolescents and adults may exhibit differences in the pattern of transition from use to abuse.
Journal ArticleDOI

How much is too much? Phenotypic consequences of Rai1 overexpression in mice

TL;DR: It is shown that Rai1 dosage has major consequences on molecular processes involved in growth, development, and neurological and behavioral functions, thus providing evidence for several dosage-thresholds for phenotypic manifestations causing dup(17)(p11.2) syndrome or SMS in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decreased sensitivity in adolescent vs. adult rats to the locomotor activating effects of toluene.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that exposure to abuse patterns of high concentrations of toluene through inhalation can alter spontaneous locomotor behavior in rats and that the expression of these effects appears to depend upon the postnatal age of testing and sex of the animal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of test conditions on the outcome of place conditioning with morphine and naltrexone in mice.

TL;DR: Overall, the present data indicated that failure to exhibit place preference or place aversion when tested in a drug-free state does not imply the failure of conditioning procedure; and effects of the morphine cue reinstatement during the post-conditioning tests appeared to be related to the unique pharmacological profile ofThe morphine stimulus.
