Blockade of cannabinoid receptors by SR141716 selectively increases fos expression in rat mesocorticolimbic areas via reduced dopamine D sub(2) function

The present study investigated, in rats, whether blockade of cannabinoid CB sub(1) receptors may alter Fos protein expression in a manner comparable to that observed with antipsychotic drugs. Intraperitoneal administration of the selective CB sub(1) receptor antagonist, SR141716, dose-dependently (1...
