Previously we demonstrated profound effects of dopamine transporter (DAT) SLC6A3
genotype on limbic responses to smoking cues (SCs). Probands carrying at least one copy …

The development and expression of the midbrain dopamine system is determined in part by
genetic factors that vary across individuals such that dopamine-related genes are partly …

Cocaine addiction is a debilitating neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by uncontrolled
cocaine intake, which is thought to be driven, at least in part, by cocaine-induced deficits in …

We previously demonstrated differential activation of the mesocorticolimbic reward circuitry
in response to cigarette cues independent of withdrawal. Despite robust effects, we noted …

To investigate the combined effect of an exon III variable number tandem repeat in the
dopamine receptor gene (DRD4) and insecure attachment style on risk for tobacco …

We have previously shown that brief (1 h) and extended (6 h) daily access to IV cocaine self-
administration produce different behavioral and neural consequences following 2 weeks of …

Background Dopamine D1 receptors (encoded by DRD1) are implicated in drug addiction
and high‐risk behaviors. Delay discounting (DD) procedures measure decisional balance …

Background Subjective effects of cocaine are mediated primarily by dopamine (DA)
transporter (DAT) blockade. The present study assessed the hypothesis that different DAT …

Although both cocaine and amphetamine mainly target the dopamine transporter (DAT) and
cause psychomotor effects, they have very different mechanisms of actions. The authors …

Cigarette‐dependent smokers automatically and involuntarily orient attention toward
smoking cues (SCs). This attentional bias is clinically significant, as it may contribute to …
