AMPA receptor plasticity in the nucleus accumbens after repeated exposure to cocaine
ME Wolf, CR Ferrario - Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2010 - Elsevier
This review focuses on cocaine-induced postsynaptic plasticity in the nucleus accumbens (NAc)

Homeostasis meets motivation in the battle to control food intake
Signals of energy homeostasis interact closely with neural circuits of motivation to control food
intake. An emerging hypothesis is that the transition to maladaptive feeding behavior seen …
