Background: Recent studies have shown that the cerebellum directly interacts with ventral tegmental area, a critical component of reward system. Objectives: This study aimed to explore potential changes in expression neurotrophic factors and various types voltage-gated calcium channels following morphine dependence withdrawal. Methods: involved three groups male Wistar rats. For ten consecutive days, second third were administered (10 mg/kg), while first group received saline (1 mL/kg)....
Backgrounds: Molecular mechanisms involved in adverse effects of morphine, including tolerance and dependence, have remained elusive. We examined possible alterations the gene expression proenkephalin (Penk), prodynorphin (Pdyn), mu-opioid receptor (Oprm1) reward brain areas following frequent morphine treatment. Methods: Two groups male Wistar rats were used. The received either saline (1 mL/kg) or (10 mg/kg) twice daily for eight days. On day 8, decapitated, addiction dissected, midbrain,...
