Journal ArticleDOI
Social dominance in monkeys: Dopamine D2 receptors and cocaine self-administration
Drake Morgan,Kathleen A. Grant,H. Donald Gage,Robert H. Mach,Jay R. Kaplan,Osric A. Prioleau,Susan H. Nader,Nancy Buchheimer,Richard L. Ehrenkaufer,Michael A. Nader +9 more
TL;DR: PET imaging data demonstrate that alterations in an organism's environment can produce profound biological changes that have important behavioral associations, including vulnerability to cocaine addiction.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Key areas in biomedicine where primate models have been, and continue to be, essential for advancing fundamental knowledge in biomedical and biological research are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
PET imaging of dopamine D2 receptors during chronic cocaine self-administration in monkeys
Michael A. Nader,Drake Morgan,Drake Morgan,H. Donald Gage,Susan H. Nader,Tonya L Calhoun,Nancy Buchheimer,Richard L. Ehrenkaufer,Robert H. Mach,Robert H. Mach +9 more
TL;DR: Evidence for a predisposition to self-administer cocaine based on D2 receptor availability is provided, and it is demonstrated that the brain dopamine system responds rapidly following cocaine exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of bone metastases in patients with prostate cancer by 18F fluorocholine and 18F fluoride PET–CT: a comparative study
Mohsen Beheshti,Reza Vali,Peter Waldenberger,Friedrich Fitz,Michael A. Nader,Wolfgang Loidl,Gabriele Broinger,Franz Stoiber,Ignac Foglman,Werner Langsteger +9 more
TL;DR: FCH PET–CT may be superior for the early detection of bone metastases in prostate cancer and in patients with FCH-negative suspicious sclerotic lesions, a second bone-seeking agent (e.g. 18F fluoride) is recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI
18F choline PET/CT in the preoperative staging of prostate cancer in patients with intermediate or high risk of extracapsular disease: a prospective study of 130 patients.
Mohsen Beheshti,Larisa Imamovic,Gabriele Broinger,Reza Vali,Peter Waldenberger,Franz Stoiber,Michael A. Nader,Bernhard Gruy,Guenter Janetschek,Werner Langsteger +9 more
TL;DR: FCH PET/CT could be useful in the evaluation of patients with prostate cancer who are at high risk for extracapsular disease, and it could be used to preoperatively exclude distant metastases.
