Abstract
We examined the effect of the sigma(1) receptor agonist, 1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenethyl)-4-(phenylpropyl)piperazine (SA4503), on the acquisition of the conditioned place preference response to subcutaneously administered (-)-nicotine in rats. (-)-Nicotine, but not SA4503 or vehicle, produced a significant conditioned place preference response. Pretreatment of animals with either 1 or 3 mg/kg of SA4503 significantly attenuated the conditioned place preference response to (-)-nicotine.Entities:
