J Pharmacol Exp Ther 298:226-33. 2001..These data identify a mechanism to elicit a motor stimulant response from the ventral tegmental area that does not involve activating dopamine transmission...
Repeated cocaine administration into the rat ventral tegmental area produces behavioral sensitization to a systemic cocaine challengeJ L Cornish
Department of Physiology and Neuroscience, Medical University of South Carolina, 29425, USA
Behav Brain Res 126:205-9. 2001..These data support the possibility that increased dopamine transmission in the VTA is involved in the cellular events that determine the initiation of behavioral sensitization to cocaine...
