Abstract
The administration of methamphetamine caused an increase of c-fos mRNA in the striatum of the mouse. A systemic injection of the delta-opioid receptor agonist, [D-Ala2, D-Leu5]enkephalin (DADLE), attenuated the c-fos mRNA increase induced by methamphetamine. These results suggest that endogenous delta-opioid peptides might counteract certain genomic influences exerted by psychostimulants such as methamphetamine.Entities:
