Upregulation of kappa opioid receptor system and its association with relapse to morphine/methamphetamine (poly-drug) addiction
The kappa opioid receptor (KOR) system has been linked to many types of drug addiction. An upregulation of the KOR leads to negative reinforcement effects which might contribute to drug relapse. Previously, our study has shown that a treatment combination of 0.3 mg/kg buprenorphine and 1.0 mg/kg met...
