An ethopharmacological analysis of the behavioral effects of 8-OH-DPAT.

abstract：RATIONALE:Neurosteroids are implicated in various stages of drug dependence, including the acquisition phase, tolerance, and withdrawal. The neurosteroid allopregnanolone is also able to substitute for drugs with abuse potential and possesses reinforcing properties. OBJECTIVES:The effects of acute treatment with, and ...
