Involvement of µ-Opioid Receptor in Methamphetamine-Induced Behavioral Sensitization
Methamphetamine is a potent addictive stimulant drug that activates certain systems in the brain. It is a member of the amphetamine family, but the effects of methamphetamine are much more potent, longer lasting, and more harmful to the central nervous system. Repeated administration of methamphetamine induces behavioral sensitization, which is considered to be related to compulsive drug-seekin...
متن کاملAscorbic acid inhibits nicotine-induced behavioral sensitization in male mice
Repeated administration of nicotine causes incentive and behavioral sensitization in animals. Ascorbic acid administration inhibits some effects of nicotine. In the present study, the effect of ascorbic acid administration on nicotine-induced behavioral sensitization in Male Swiss-Webster mice (20-25 g) was investigated. Animals were injected with nicotine (0.25 mg/kg, i.p.) once daily for seve...
متن کاملInvolvement of Mu Opioid Receptor Signaling in The Protective Effect of Opioid against 6-Hydroxydopamine-Induced SH-SY5Y Human Neuroblastoma Cells Apoptosis
Introduction: The neuroprotective role of opioid morphine against 6-hydroxydopamineinduced cell death has been demonstrated. However, the exact mechanism(s) underlying such neuroprotection, especially the role of subtype receptors, has not yet been fully clarified. Methods: Here, we investigated the effects of different opioid agonists on 6-OHDA-induced neurotoxicity in human neuroblastoma...

متن کاملEffect of prenatal methadone on reinstated behavioral sensitization induced by methamphetamine in adolescent rats
It has been known that methadone maintenance treatment is the standard treatment of choice for pregnant opiate addicts. However, there are few data on newborn outcomes especially in the cross talk with other addictive agents. The present study was to investigate the effect of prenatal exposure to methadone on methamphetamine (METH)-induced behavioral sensitization as an indicator of drug addict...
