Sex differences in subcellular distribution of delta opioid receptors in the rat hippocampus in response to acute and chronic stress

Sex differences in subcellular distribution of delta opioid receptors in the rat hippocampus in response to acute and chronic stress

Drug addiction requires associative learning processes that critically involve hippocampal circuits, including the opioid system. We recently found that acute and chronic stress, important regulators of addictive processes, affect hippocampal opioid levels and mu opioid receptor trafficking in a sex...
