    Neuroscience 132:1159-71. 2005
    ..In conclusion, the FSL animal model of depression demonstrates marked blunting of the locomotor and dynorphin neuroadaptative responses to cocaine in accordance with its enhanced cholinergic sensitivity...

    Eur J Neurosci 17:2212-8. 2003
    ..In addition, the temporal nature of the changes in PDYN gene expression within the striatal compartments could reflect a change in drug responsivity that occurs during the transition to drug dependence...

    ..Rat brain specimens were also studied and many similarities to the human CART mRNA expression were evident. However, the most marked species difference was the virtual absence of the CART mRNA in the rat thalamus...
