Behavioral sensitization and cross-sensitization between methylphenidate amphetamine, and 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) in female SD rats.
The psychostimulants amphetamine and methylphenidate (MPD/Ritalin) are the drugs most often used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). In addition, students of all ages take these drugs to improve academic performance but also abuse them for pleasurable enhancement. In addition, other psychostimulants such as 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA/ecstasy) are used/abused f...
متن کاملReciprocal cross-sensitization between amphetamine and salt appetite.
Previous work in our laboratory has demonstrated a potentiation of the psychomotor effects of amphetamine in animals with a history of sodium depletion, a process referred to as cross-sensitization. The present studies were done to further develop this finding by assessing multiple effects of amphetamine in rats with and without a history of sodium depletion. For Experiments 1-3, rats were depl...

Several lines of evidence indicate that the use of stimulant drugs, including methylphenidate (MPD), increases tobacco smoking. This has raised concerns that MPD use during adolescence could facilitate nicotine abuse. Preclinical studies have shown that repeated treatment with an addictive drug produces sensitization to that drug and usually cross-sensitization to other drugs. Behavioral sensit...
متن کاملBehavioral sensitization following concurrent exposure to mephedrone and D-amphetamine in female mice.
Recreational use of illicit methcathinone derivatives is a public health concern in the USA and Europe. Recent reports indicate that mephedrone (MEPH) produces neurochemical and behavioral effects comparable with amphetamines. The present study investigated the effects of a mixture of MEPH and D-amphetamine (AMPH) on the induction and expression of behavioral sensitization. Thirty female CD-1 m...
متن کاملBehavioral cross-sensitization between testosterone and fenproporex in adolescent and adult rats
The abuse of psychoactive drugs is considered a global health problem. During the last years, a relevant number of studies have investigated the relationship between anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS) and other psychoactive drugs. AAS, such as testosterone, can cause a dependence syndrome that shares many features with the classical dependence to psychoactive substances. Pre-clinical evidence s...
