Neurosci Lett . 2021 Feb; 749:135745. PMID: 33610663
Ethanol consumption may promote neuroplasticity and alterations in synapses, resulting in modifications in neuronal activity. Here, we treated male Swiss mice with ethanol (2.2 g/kg) or saline once per day...

Reis H, Rodrigues I, Anjos-Santos A, Libarino-Santos M, Serra Y, Cata-Preta E, et al.
Psychopharmacology (Berl) . 2020 Jul; 237(11):3269-3281. PMID: 32676773
Rationale: Accumulating evidence suggests that ayahuasca, a hallucinogenic beverage used in traditional Amazonian communities for ritualistic and curative purposes, has been associated with reduced rates of substance use disorders. However,...

Pharmacol Biochem Behav . 2017 Apr; 156:16-23. PMID: 28366798
CB1 receptor antagonists have been shown to prevent acute and long-term behavioral effects of cocaine. Here we evaluate the effectiveness of the CB1 receptor antagonist rimonabant to modify sensitized responses...

Prog Neuropsychopharmacol Biol Psychiatry . 2014 Dec; 58:22-31. PMID: 25496830
Rationale: The endocannabinoid system has been implicated in the neurobiological mechanism underlying drug addiction, especially the primary rewarding dopamine-dependent processes. Therefore, endocannabinoid receptor antagonists, such as the CB1 cannabinoid antagonist...
