    M Behnam Ghasemzadeh

    Eur J Neurosci 18:1645-51. 2003
    ..These data indicate that the expression of behavioural sensitization arises in part from a reduction in Homer1 gene products in the accumbens, while the development of sensitization requires stimulation of AMPA/kainate receptors...
