Journal ArticleDOI

Viral restoration of dopamine to the nucleus accumbens is sufficient to induce a locomotor response to amphetamine.

TL;DR: Restoration of dopamine specifically to the nucleus accumbens (NAc) of DD mice completely restores the ability of these mice to respond to amphetamine, and shows that release of dopamine restricted to the NAc is sufficient for this response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of norepinephrine transporter abundance by catecholamines and desipramine in vivo.

TL;DR: NET levels are normal in dopamine beta-hydroxylase knockout mice that lack NE, demonstrating that the NET does not require endogenous NE for appropriate regulation under physiological conditions, and chronic treatment with the NET inhibitor, desipramine, reduced NET levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Attenuating GABA(A) receptor signaling in dopamine neurons selectively enhances reward learning and alters risk preference in mice.

TL;DR: A selective role for GABAA signaling in DA neurons in appetitive learning and decision-making is identified and β3-KO mice had enhanced risk preference in a probabilistic selection task that required mice to choose between a small certain reward and a larger uncertain reward.
Journal ArticleDOI

Norepinephrine and epinephrine-deficient mice are hyperinsulinemic and have lower blood glucose.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the primary difference in Dbh-/- mice is chronic hyperinsulinemia associated with an altered glucose set point, however, these animals compensate for NE/Epi-mediated glycogenolysis and feeding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone in the regulation of protein synthesis in chick oviduct.

- 23 Nov 1971 - 
TL;DR: Testosterone given with estrogen increased weight of oviduct and acted synergistically on differentiation initiated by estrogen and if given with progesterone promotes function of differentiated tubular gland cells.
