Chronic Stress, Drug Use, and Vulnerability to Addiction
Open accessAbstract
Stress is a well‐known risk factor in the development of addiction and in addiction relapse vulnerability. A series of population‐based and epidemiological studies have identified specific stressors and individual‐level variables that are predictive of substance use and abuse. Preclinical research also shows that stress exposure enhances drug self‐administration and reinstates drug seeking in drug‐experienced animals. The deleterious effects of early life stress, child maltreatment, and accumulated adversity on alterations in the corticotropin releasing factor and hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal axis (CRF/HPA), the extrahypothalamic CRF, the autonomic arousal, and the central noradrenergic systems are also presented. The effects of these alterations on the corticostriatal‐limbic motivational, learning, and adaptation systems that include mesolimbic dopamine, glutamate, and gamma‐amino‐butyric acid (GABA) pathways are discussed as the underlying pathophysiology associated with stress‐related risk of addiction. The effects of regular and chronic drug use on alterations in these stress and motivational systems are also reviewed, with specific attention to the impact of these adaptations on stress regulation, impulse control, and perpetuation of compulsive drug seeking and relapse susceptibility. Finally, research gaps in furthering our understanding of the association between stress and addiction are presented, with the hope that addressing these unanswered questions will significantly influence new prevention and treatment strategies to address vulnerability to addiction.

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.
