Anxiolytic effects of alcohol participate in the reinforcing properties of the drug, in which nucleus accumbens (NAcc) is implicated. The opioidergic system in NAcc is considered a main pathway involved in the emotional responses of animals: rats microinjected with morphine

Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) exerts an orexigenic effect that resembles that of opioids, suggesting that the MCH and opioid systems could interact in controlling the food intake behavior. Three series of experiments were conducted in male Wistar rats: 1) to test

beta-Funaltrexamine (beta-FNA) is an alkylating derivative of naltrexone. In addition to acting as an irreversible inhibitor of mu-receptor-mediated physiological effects, intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) administration of beta-FNA to rat attenuates the ability of selective delta receptor antagonists and naloxone to reverse delta

Neuropathic pain alters opioid self-administration in rats. The brain regions altered in the presence of neuropathic pain mediating these differences have not been identified, but likely involve ascending pain pathways interacting with the limbic system. The amygdala is a brain
