Unique gene alterations are induced in FACS‐purified Fos‐positive neurons activated during cue‐induced relapse to heroin seeking

S Fanous, DH Guez‐Barber, EM Goldart… - Journal of …, 2013 - Wiley Online Library

Loss of plasticity in the D2-accumbens pallidal pathway promotes cocaine seeking

JA Heinsbroek, DN Neuhofer, WC Griffin… - Journal of …, 2017 - Soc Neuroscience
Distinct populations of D1-and D2-dopamine receptor-expressing medium spiny neurons
(D1-/D2-MSNs) comprise the nucleus accumbens, and activity in D1-MSNs promotes …

Cue reactivity in the ventral striatum characterizes heavy cannabis use, whereas reactivity in the dorsal striatum mediates dependent use

X Zhou, K Zimmermann, F Xin, W Zhao… - Biological psychiatry …, 2019 - Elsevier
Background Animal models of addiction suggest that the transition from incentive-driven
drug use to habitual and ultimately compulsive drug use is mediated by a shift from ventral to …

Detection of molecular alterations in methamphetamine‐activated Fos‐expressing neurons from a single rat dorsal striatum using fluorescence‐activated cell sorting …

QR Liu, FJ Rubio, JM Bossert… - Journal of …, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Methamphetamine and other drugs activate a small proportion of all neurons in the brain.
We previously developed a fluorescence‐activated cell sorting (FACS)‐based method to …
