The role of the μ-opioid receptors in the mechanism of ethanol-stimulated mesolimbic dopamine release

The goal of this dissertation was to investigate the role of μ-opioid receptors in the mechanism of ethanol-stimulated dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens shell (NAcS) of rats. The underlying hypothesis is that blockade of the μ-opioid receptors leads to an attenuation of ethanol-stimulated me...
