A role for neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in ethanol-induced stimulation, but not cocaine- or methamphetamine-induced stimulation.

Psychopharmacology - 1 Feb 2008

Kamens Helen M, Phillips Tamara J

Abstract excerpt

RATIONALE: Cocaine (COC), ethanol (EtOH), and methamphetamine (MA) are widely abused substances and share the ability to induce behavioral stimulation in mice and humans. Understanding the biological basis of behavioral stimulation to COC, EtOH, and MA may provide a greater understanding of drug and alcohol abuse. OBJECTIVES: In these studies we set out to determine if neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors...
