The epigenetic effect of nicotine on dopamine D1 receptor expression in rat prefrontal cortex
Nicotine is a highly addictive drug and exerts its effect partially through causing dopamine
release, thereby increasing intrasynaptic dopamine levels in the brain reward systems. …

Forced swim stress elicits region-specific changes in CART expression in the stress axis and stress regulatory brain areas
CART mRNA and peptides are highly expressed in the anatomical structures composing the
hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and sympatho-adrenal system. Anatomical and …
