The possible involvement of opioid peptides as part of the neurochemical substrates of self-stimulation (SS) in the medial prefrontal cortex (MPC) of the rat was investigated in two different groups of rats bilaterally implanted with monopolar electrodes in the MPC. In the first group, morphine (5,

## Abstract A wide variety of stressors elicit Fos expression in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). No direct attempts, however, have been made to determine the role of the inputs that drive this response. We examined the effects of lesions of mPFC catecholamine terminals on local expression of F
## Abstract The effects of selective ibotenate lesions of the complete hippocampus (CHip), the hippocampal ventral pole (VP), or the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) in male rats were assessed on several measures related to energy regulation (i.e., body weight gain, food intake, body adiposity, meta
We have previously shown that the nicotine-induced dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens can be attenuated by local administration into the ventral tegmental area (VTA), of antagonists at nicotinic and N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), but not alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate (AMP
