First, it discusses to distinguish between the activation of reward circuitry by the initial molecular targets of addictive drugs in the brain; drugs and natural activation of the same circuitry by useful then the molecular and cellular changes induced by drugs behaviors (e.

In humans, psycho- and cellular studies of pathophysiology, as well as suggest stimulants increase alertness and produce a sense of well biochemical pathways that can be exploited for treatment. In animal studies, psychostimulants produce a dose- dependent increase in locomotor activity at low doses and stereotypies at high doses.

However, as described mines and related drugs increase dopamine, serotonin, and in other chapters in this section, addictive drugs share the norepinephrine neurotransmission by acting as a substrate ability to activate mesocorticolimbic dopamine projections for their transporters.
