Self-administration of morphine, DAMGO, and DPDPE into the ventral tegmental area of rats

Open access

Abstract

Intracranial self-administration of mu- and delta-opioid agonists was demonstrated in male Long-Evans rats. Independent groups were allowed to lever-press for ventral tegmental area (VTA) microinfusions of morphine, the selective mu agonist [D-Ala2,N-Me-Phe4-Gly5-ol]- enkephalin (DAMGO), the selective delta-agonist [D-Pen2,D-Pen5]- enkephalin (DPDPE), or ineffective drug vehicle. Morphine, DAMGO, and DPDPE were each effective in establishing and maintaining lever- pressing habits. Lever-pressing responses were extinguished during a session when vehicle was substituted for drug, and reinstated when drug reinforcement was reestablished. Thus, it appears that VTA mu- and delta-opioid receptors are each involved in reinforcement of opiate self-administration. The effective dose of DAMGO--both for establishing and for maintaining the lever-press habit--was 100 times lower than the effective doses for DPDPE and morphine, suggesting that the major contribution of VTA mechanisms to intravenous heroin self- administration involves an action on mu-opioid receptors.

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.
