Opioids, psychostimulants, and alcohol activate dynorphin, particularly in the shell of the NAc, triggered by cAMP-to-dynorphin activation.
“Another mechanism to explain the hypodopaminergic state is that opioids, psychostimulants, and alcohol activate dynorphin, particularly in the shell of the NAc, triggered by a cascade of molecular events that involve cAMP-to-dynorphin activation (Carlezon et al., 2000;Chavkin and Koob, 2016).”

Kappa-opioid receptor agonists and dynorphins produce aversive-like effects in both animals and humans and have been hypothesized to mediate negative emotional states associated with drug withdrawal, pain, and acute withdrawal.
“k-Opioid receptor agonists (administered systemically) and dynorphins (administered intracerebrally) produce aversive-like effects in both animals and humans (Shippenberg et al., 2007) and have been hypothesized to mediate negative emotional states that are associated with drug withdrawal (Chavkin and Koob, 2016), pain, and more specifically pain that is associated with acute withdrawal (see also”

“Chronic opioid pretreatment potentiates SEFL independent of treatment frequency and bouts of acute withdrawal The experience of acute withdrawal is frequently posited to underlie the changes in negative affective states associated with addiction [20, 21].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
