Behavioral Responses to Methylphenidate: Correlations With Neuronal Activity In The Caudate Nucleus
… chronic responses to the same dose of MPH. Behavioral and caudate nucleus (CN) neuronal activity following acute and chronic doses of MPH was assessed by simultaneously recording the behavioral and neuronal activity. The experimental protocol lasted for 10 days using four groups; saline, …

Effects of Response-Independent Food Pellet Delivery on the Development of Tolerance to the Rate-Decreasing Effect of d-Amphetamine in Rats
… reinforcement can affect the development of behavioral tolerance. Environmental enrichment affects many drug-related phenomena, but its effects on the development of tolerance are not clear. The present study examined how enriching the environment by providing non-contingent food pellets …

Ventral Tegmental Area Neuronal Responses to Methylphenidate Correlated to Behavioral Responses of Adolescent and Adult Rats
… psychostimulant action thought to be involved in behavioral sensitization. The aim of the this study was to first determine if there are differences in neuronal responses between individuals, with respect to neuronal firing patterns in the ventral tegmental area (VTA), and whether these …

Infectious disease as a cause and consequence of phenotypic responses to challenge in a songbird species
Throughout their lives, animals are faced with numerous ecological challenges stemming from abiotic and biotic conditions of their environment. Phenotypic shifts in response to one challenge can have cascading effects on other organismal systems, with downstream implications for individual fitness. …

Repeated Zolpidem Treatment Effects on Sedative Tolerance, Withdrawal, mRNA Levels, and Protein Expression
… positive allosteric modulators (PAM) can lead to behavioral tolerance, the diminished response to the same drug dose with repeated use, and withdrawal, a group of symptoms that occur due to abrupt end of drug treatment. Zolpidem is a short-acting, non-BZ GABAAR PAM whose potential for tolerance …
