Neuroimaging for drug addiction and related behaviors.
In this review, we highlight the role of neuroimaging techniques in studying the emotional and cognitive-behavioral components of the addiction syndrome by focusing on the neural substrates subserving them. The phenomenology of drug addiction can be characterized by a recurrent pattern of subjective experiences that includes drug intoxication, craving, bingeing, and withdrawal with the cycle cu...
متن کاملThe Involvement of Norepinephrine in Behaviors Related to Psychostimulant Addiction
Although it is generally accepted that the abuse-related effects of amphetamines and cocaine result from the activation of the brain dopaminergic (DA) system, the psychostimulants also alter other neurotransmitter systems. In particular, they increase extracellular levels of norepinephrine (NE) and serotonin by inhibiting respective plasma membrane transporters and/or inducing release. The pres...
متن کاملMolecular mechanisms underlying behaviors related to nicotine addiction.
Tobacco smoking results in more than 5 million deaths each year and accounts for almost 90% of all deaths from lung cancer. Nicotine, the major reinforcing component of tobacco smoke, acts in the brain through the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). The nAChRs are allosterically regulated, ligand-gated ion channels consisting of five membrane-spanning subunits. Twelve mammalian...

متن کاملPutative Epigenetic Involvement of the Endocannabinoid System in Anxiety- and Depression-Related Behaviors Caused by Nicotine as a Stressor
Like various stressors, the addictive use of nicotine (NC) is associated with emotional symptoms such as anxiety and depression, although the underlying mechanisms have not yet been fully elucidated due to the complicated involvement of target neurotransmitter systems. In the elicitation of these emotional symptoms, the fundamental involvement of epigenetic mechanisms such as histone acetylatio...
