In this study, we tried to find out the effect of acute and chronic restraint stress on reinstatement of extinguished METH-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) in rats.Methods: Subcutaneous (s.c.) administration of METH (0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 mg/kg) could induce CPP which dose of 0.5 mg/kg was more potent than other doses. In extinction phase, rats were put in the CPP box for 30 … Show more
