Journal ArticleDOI
Interchangeability of Stress and Amphetamine in Sensitization
TL;DR: It is suggested that amphetamine and at least some stressors may be interchangeable in their ability to induce a sensitization, and the possibility that stress might be a common variable contributing to both amphetamine psychosis and some forms of schizophrenia is raised.
Journal ArticleDOI
Norepinephrine-dopamine interactions and behavior
TL;DR: The proposed hypothesis is that the deleterious behavioral effects of decreased DA activity may be counterbalanced by a similar decrease occurring in NE activity, such compensation being most likely to occur under conditions of stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Criteria for rationally evaluating animal models of posttraumatic stress disorder.
TL;DR: Five criteria that must be fulfilled by animal models of stress for them to be useful to understanding the induction of PTSD are presented and two potential animal modelsOf stress--inescapable shock-learned helplessness and time-dependent sensitization--are evaluated to illustrate how to more successfully pair animal modelsof stress with the specific clinical syndrome of PTSD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tail pinch-induced eating, gnawing and licking behavior in rats: dependence on the nigrostriatal dopamine system.
TL;DR: Mild-tail-pinch induces a syndrome of eating, gnawing and licking behavior in rats in the presence of food that is critically dependent on the nigrostriatal dopamine system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stress-induced hyperphagia and obesity in rats: a possible model for understanding human obesity
TL;DR: Mild tail pinch administered to rats several times daily in the presence of sweetened mild induced immediate hyperphagia and led to considerable gain in body weight.
