Using ssRNA-seq, we examined the alteration of transcription profiles in the nucleus accumbens of methamphetamine-sensitized mice. Methamphetamine was a commonly abused psychostimulant. Repeated exposure to methamphetamine elicited long-lasting cellular and molecular changes, including the aberrant ...

Genetic association studies, pharmacological investigations and analysis of mice-lacking individual genes have made it clear that Cocaine administration and Withdrawal have a profound impact on multiple neurotransmitter systems. The GABAergic medium spiny neurons of the nucleus accumbens (NAc) exhib...

Drug exposure during critical periods of development is known to have lasting effects, increasing one’s risk for developing mental health disorders. Emerging evidence has also indicated the possibility for drug exposure to even impact subsequent generations. Our previous work demonstrated that adole...

Neuroanatomical methods enable high-resolution mapping of neural circuitry, but do not allow systematic molecular profiling of neurons based on their connectivity. Here, we report the development of a novel approach for molecularly profiling projective neurons. We show that ribosomes can be labeled ...

Background: The incidence of alcohol and tobacco co-abuse is as high as 80%. The molecular mechanism underlying this comorbidity is virtually unknown but interactions between these drugs have important implications for the development of, and recovery from drug dependence. Methods: We investigat...

To identify distinct transcriptional patterns between the major subcortical dopamine targets commonly studied in addiction we studied differences in gene expression between the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST), nucleus accumbens (NAc), and dorsal striatum (dStr) using microarray analysis. ...

ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling proteins are being implicated increasingly in the regulation of complex behaviors, including models of several psychiatric disorders. Here, we demonstrate that Baz1b, an accessory subunit of the ISWI family of chromatin remodeling complexes, is upregulated in the n...

Depression and anxiety disorders are more prevalent in females, but the majority of research in animal models, the first step in finding new treatments, has focused predominantly on males. Here we report that exposure to subchronic variable stress (SCVS) induces depression-associated behaviors in fe...

Using microRNA-Seq, we examined the alteration of microRNA expression profiles in the nucleus accumbens of methamphetamine-sensitized and saline-control mice. Nucleus accumbens lysate from eight mice of each group were pooled as one sample. Two RNA samples from each group were prepared and were then...

This study investigated changes in gene expression associated with ethanol drinking in adult male P rats under the following conditions for 8 weeks: continuous access (24 hr/day, 7 days/week), multiple scheduled access (three 1-hr sessions during the dark cycle/day, 5 days/week) and ethanol-naive (w...
