Microinjection of a dopamine-D1 receptor agonist into the ventral tegmental area reverses the blocked expression of morphine conditioned place preference by N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist

Background: The release of dopamine (DA) in the posterior ventral tegmental area (pVTA) plays an important role in cue-related learning, reward, and relapse. On the other hand, studies have shown that the use of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonist (AP5) inhibits the expression of morphi...
