3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, "ecstasy") and its stereoisomers as reinforcers in rhesus monkeys: serontonergic involvement
(Springer-Verlag, 2002-06)
Rationale: The reinforcing effects of MDMA and its enantiomers have not been extensively characterized in laboratory animals. Objectives: To investigate whether MDMA and its stereoisomers would be self-administered ...
Observing responses maintained by stimuli associated with cocaine or remifentanil reinforcement in rhesus monkeys
(Springer-Verlag, 2002-10)
Abstract
Topiramate attenuates exaggerated acoustic startle in an animal model of PTSD
(Springer-Verlag, 2004-03)
Exaggerated acoustic startle is a prominent symptom of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD); however, its physiological basis is not well understood, and there are few available treatments. Neurobiological research has ...
The ascending limb of the cocaine dose-response curve for reinforcing effect in rhesus monkeys
(Springer-Verlag, 2003-02)
Rationale. To date, the literature on the intravenous self-administration of cocaine by laboratory animals lacks a compelling demonstration of an ascending limb to the dose-response function. It has been argued that previous ...
Hallucinogen-like actions of 2,5-dimethoxy-4-( n )-propylthiophenethylamine (2C-T-7) in mice and rats
(Springer-Verlag, 2005-09)
Few studies have examined the effects of 2,5-dimethoxy-4-( n )-propylthiophenethylamine (2C-T-7) in vivo.
Child Sexual Abuse, Peer Sexual Abuse, and Sexual Assault in Adulthood: A Multi-Risk Model of Revictimization
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2001-04)
This study explored the predictors and consequences of sexual assault occurring after the age of 16 years in a nonclinical sample of women. Child sexual abuse occurring before the age of 16 years was the only predictor of ...
Nantenine: an antagonist of the behavioral and physiological effects of MDMA in mice
(Springer-Verlag, 2004-05)
No selective antagonists for the effects of MDMA have yet been identified. The structurally-similar, naturally-occurring plant alkaloid nantenine (9,10-methylenedioxy-1,2 dimethoxyaporphine) may represent such a compound.
Associations of Food Addiction in a Sample Recruited to Be Nationally Representative of the United States
(SpringerWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2018-03)
The current study investigated the prevalence of food addiction and its associations with obesity and demographic factors in a sample recruited to be more nationally representative of the United States than previous research. ...
A role for the prefrontal cortex in stress- and cocaine-induced reinstatement of cocaine seeking in rats
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag, 2003-07)
It is well established that stress induces reinstatement of drug seeking in an animal model of relapse. Here we studied the role of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) in foot-shock stress-induced ...
Summary of a National Institute of Mental Health workshop: developing animal models of anxiety disorders
(Springer-Verlag, 2001-10)
Rationale: There exists a wide range of animal models and measures designed to assess anxiety or fearfulness. However, the relationship between these models and clinical anxiety symptoms and syndromes is unclear. The ...
