2022, Pharmacology Biochemistry and BehaviorSubstance use modulates stress reactivity: Behavioral and physiological outcomes
2016, Physiology and BehaviorCitation Excerpt :One clear mechanism by which chronic drug use can alter stress response is via actions on CRF signaling. Acute administration of cocaine, morphine, nicotine, cannabinoids and alcohol lead to increases in CRF release, mRNA, and/or immunoreactivity [60–65]. While transient increases are seen following acute drug administration, chronic drug administration leads to sustained increases in CRF release [66,67] and CRF immunoreactivity [68].
The combination of metyrapone and oxazepam for the treatment of cocaine and other drug addictions
2014, Advances in PharmacologyCitation Excerpt :In fact, cocaine can even stimulate the release of CRF from rat hypothalamic organ culture systems in vitro (Calogero, Gallucci, Kling, Chrousos, & Gold, 1989). Acute cocaine administration has also been reported to decrease CRF-like immunoreactivity in the hypothalamus, hippocampus, and frontal cortex, while increasing it in the amygdala (Sarnyai et al., 1993), indicating that cocaine can also affect CRF activity in areas located outside the hypothalamus. Similarly, chronic exposure to cocaine decreases CRF receptor binding in brain regions primarily associated with the mesocorticolimbic dopaminergic system (Goeders, Bienvenu, & De Souza, 1990).
