Rationale: Alcohol use is reliably preceded by discrete and contextual stimuli which, through diverse learning processes, acquire the capacity to promote alcohol use and relapse to alcohol use. Objective: We review contemporary extinction, renewal, reinstatement, occasion setting, and sex differences research within a conditioning framework of relapse to ...

Sex differences in alcohol use and abuse are pervasive and carry important implications for the prevention and treatment of alcohol use disorder (AUD), yet insight into underlying sexually dimorphic mechanisms is limited. Growing experimental and clinical evidence points to an important influence of circadian rhythms and circadian clock genes in the contr ...

This supplementary dataset is supportive of the research article entitled 'The role of context on responding to an alcohol-predictive cue in female and male rats' [1]. This article describes the raw data pertaining to the behaviour of male and female rats during intermittent to ethanol and Pavlovian conditioning training and testing procedures. Sp ...

Ketamine has been shown to acutely and rapidly ameliorate depression symptoms and suicidality. Given that women suffer from major depression at twice the rate of men, it is important to understand how ketamine works in the female brain. This review explores three themes. First, it examines our current understanding of the etiology of depression in women. ...

Most existing studies investigating profiles of anxious and depressive symptoms in adolescent boys and girls do not consider the high cooccurrence between them, which prevents from identifying how heterogeneous groups might distinctly use coping strategies. To address this gap, the current study relies on a sample of 976 adolescents (56.0% girls (n = 547) ...

In male rats, physical contexts that are associated with alcohol can amplify responding to a discrete, alcohol-predictive conditioned stimulus (CS), and amplify prime-induced reinstatement. Here, we examined these effects as a function of biological sex. Male and female Long-Evans rats were acclimated to drinking ethanol (15% v/v) in their home cages. Nex ...

Vasopressins are evolutionarily conserved peptide hormones. Mammalian vasopressin functions systemically as an antidiuretic and regulator of blood and cardiac flow essential for adapting to terrestrial environments. Moreover, vasopressin acts centrally as a neurohormone involved in social and par ...
