Opioid-Induced Adaptations of cAMP Dynamics in the Nucleus Accumbens

Sarah Zych et al. Trends Pharmacol Sci. 2020 Apr.

Abstract

To investigate how opioid exposure alters dopamine (DA) responses in medium spiny neurons (MSNs), Muntean et al. used a novel cAMP sensor to track cAMP dynamics and report a coordinated effort of adaptations in D1- and D2-MSNs to integrate DA inputs and shift signaling strengths in various states of opioid dependence.

Keywords: GPCR; dopamine; opioid; striatum; striosome.
