Abstract excerpt

Lower tissue levels of dopamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) have been found in the nucleus accumbens of alcohol-naïve rats selectively bred to prefer ethanol than in rats bred to avoid it. These findings have led to the hypothesis that differences in the dopamine and 5-HT tone may be linked to ethanol preference. In the present study we used the in vivo microdialysis technique to determine the actual...
