Neurokinin 3 receptor activation potentiates the psychomotor and nucleus accumbens dopamine response to cocaine, but not its place conditioning effects.
Neurokinin(3) receptors (NK(3)-Rs) have been implicated in psychomotor activity and reinforcement mechanisms. Recently, we showed that NK(3)-R antagonism blocked the psychostimulant properties of cocaine both in rats and in primates. Here, using in vivo microdialysis in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) o...
