Enduring changes in brain and behavior produced by chronic amphetamine administration: a review and evaluation of animal models of amphetamine psychosis.

Some people who repeatedly use stimulant drugs, such as amphetamine (AMPH), develop an AMPH-induced psychosis that is similar to paranoid schizophrenia. There has been, therefore, considerable interest in characterizing the effects of chronic stimulant drug treatment on brain and behavior in non-human animals, and in developing an animal model of AMPH psychosis. A review of this literature show...

The effect of low dose amphetamine in rotenone-induced toxicity in a mice model of Parkinson’s disease

Objective(s): The effects of low dose amphetamine on oxidative stress and rotenone-induced neurotoxicity and liver injury were examined in vivo in a mice model of Parkinson’s disease. Materials and Methods: Male mice were treated with rotenone (1.5 mg/kg, every other day for two weeks, subcutaneously). Mice received either the vehicle or...

INFLUENCES OF DIFFERENT ADRENOCEPTOR AGONISTS AND ANTAGONISTS ON AMPHETAMINE- INDUCED CLIMBING IN MICE

Administration of apomorphine and amphetamine induces climbing behavior in mice due to stimulation of brain dopamine receptors. In the present study, the effects of adrenoceptor agonists and antagonists on amphetamine-induced climbing have been investigated. Intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of different doses of amphetamine (2,4 and 8 mglkg) induced climbing in mice (p<O.OOO 1). The u2- ad...

The effects of footshock stress on regional brain dopamine metabolism and pituitary beta-endorphin release in rats previously sensitized to amphetamine.

The repeated intermittent administration of amphetamine (AMP) produces an enduring enhancement in the response of dopamine (DA) systems in the brain to a subsequent "challenge" with amphetamine. However, former amphetamine addicts are not only hypersensitive to amphetamine, but also to "physical or psychological stress". This suggests that sensitization to amphetamine may change the response of...

Susceptibility to sensitization. II. The influence of gonadal hormones on enduring changes in brain monoamines and behavior produced by the repeated administration of D-amphetamine or restraint stress.

Repeated amphetamine use produces an enduring sensitization of brain dopamine (DA) systems and behavior. Repeated exposure to stress can also produce sensitization, and amphetamine and stress may be interchangeable in this regard. There is, however, enormous individual variation in the susceptibility to sensitization by either stimulants or stress. The purpose of the present study was to determ...
