Cystine/glutamate exchange serves as the source for extracellular glutamate: modifications by repeated cocaine administrationD A Baker
Department of Physiology and Neuroscience, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston South Carolina 29425, USA
Amino Acids 23:161-2. 2002..The studies presented reveal that this long-term neuroadaptation elicited by repeated cocaine results from a decrease in the activity of cystine/glutamate exchange...

Neuroadaptations in cystine-glutamate exchange underlie cocaine relapseDavid A Baker
Department of Physiology and Neuroscience, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, South Carolina 29425, USA
Nat Neurosci 6:743-9. 2003..Thus, withdrawal from repeated cocaine increases susceptibility to relapse in part by reducing cystine/glutamate exchange, and restoring exchanger activity prevents cocaine-primed drug seeking...
Modulation of group II metabotropic glutamate receptor signaling by chronic cocaineZheng-Xiong Xi
Department of Physiology and Neuroscience, Medical University of South Carolina, 173 Ashley Avenue, BSB 403, Charleston, SC 29464, USA
J Pharmacol Exp Ther 303:608-15. 2002..Together, these data demonstrate that repeated cocaine produces an enduring reduction in mGluR2/3 function in the nucleus accumbens...

Department of Biomedical Sciences, Box 1881, Marquette University, Milwaukee, WI 53201 1881, USA
Brain Res 1167:101-11. 2007..The findings suggest that cocaine use produces persistent changes in individual responsiveness to stressors that may contribute to the addiction process...
Surgical adrenalectomy with diurnal corticosterone replacement slows escalation and prevents the augmentation of cocaine-induced reinstatement in rats self-administering cocaine under long-access conditionsJohn R Mantsch
