Cocaine increases serotonergic activity in the hippocampus and nucleus accumbens in vivo: 5-HT1a-receptor antagonism blocks behavioral but potentiates serotonergic activation.
The hippocampus is an important mediator of learning and reinforcement, but its role in cocaine effects has received little attention. Neuronal activity in the hippocampus and the nucleus accumbens (Nac) depend on serotonergic (5-HT) transmission. Here we describe for the first time a cocaine-induce...
