Induction and expression of cocaine-induced behavioral sensitization: Modulation by a partial D₂-like agonist

Year: 2003

Type: article

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a partial D₂-like dopamine agonist (i.e. terguride) would block the induction or expression of cocaine-induced behavioral sensitization in pre-weanling rats. The ability of terguride to induce behavioral sensitization was also examined, as partial D₂-like agonists have agonistic actions in cases of low dopaminergic tone.
