Journal ArticleDOI
Imaging dopamine receptors in the human brain by positron tomography
Henry N. Wagner,H. Donald Burns,Robert F. Dannals,Dean F. Wong,Bengt Långström,Timothy Duelfer,J. James Frost,Hayden T. Ravert,Jonathan M. Links,Shelley B. Rosenbloom,Scott E. Lukas,Alfred V. Kramer,Michael J. Kuhar +12 more
TL;DR: The ligand 3-N-[11C]methylspiperone, which preferentially binds to dopamine receptors in vivo, was used to image the receptors by positron emission tomography scanning in baboons and in humans, and holds promise for noninvasive clinical studies of dopamine receptor in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Human Brain Activation During Cue-Induced Cocaine Craving
Luis C. Maas,Scott E. Lukas,Marc J. Kaufman,Roger D. Weiss,Sarah L. Daniels,Veronica W. Rogers,Thellea J. Kukes,Perry F. Renshaw +7 more
TL;DR: Functional MRI results suggest that functional MRI may be a useful tool to study the neurobiological basis of cue-induced craving.
Journal ArticleDOI
Buprenorphine treatment of refractory depression
TL;DR: A possible role for buprenorphine in treating refractory depression is suggested for the population of depressed patients who are unresponsive to or intolerant of conventional antidepressant agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age of onset of marijuana use and executive function.
TL;DR: Findings suggest that earlier MJ onset is related to poorer cognitive function and increased frequency and magnitude of MJ use relative to later MJ onset, and exposure to MJ during a period of neurodevelopmental vulnerability, such as adolescence, may result in altered brain development and enduring neuropsychological changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sex differences in plasma cocaine levels and subjective effects after acute cocaine administration in human volunteers
Scott E. Lukas,Michelle B. Sholar,Leslie H. Lundahl,X Lamas,Elena M. Kouri,James D. Wines,Laura Kragie,Jack H. Mendelson +7 more
TL;DR: There are significant gender and menstrual cycle differences in the response to acute intranasal cocaine administration and these differences may have implications for the differential abuse of this drug.
