Food and Drug Reward: Overlapping Circuits in Human Obesity and Addiction
[chapter]
2011

Targeting the treatment of drug abuse with molecular imaging
2007
Nuclear Medicine and Biology
Although imaging studies in and of themselves have significant contributions to the study of human behavior, imaging in drug abuse has a much broader agenda. ...
The specific examples discussed here were chosen to illustrate how PET can be used to map the regional distribution and kinetics of compounds that may or may not have abuse liability. ...

Limbic activation to novel versus familiar food cues predicts food preference and alcohol intake
2013
Brain Research
In the same animals, after training, cue-induced brain activity was measured, and the relationships between activity and preference for three rewards, the conditioned foods and ethanol (EtOH), were separately ...
Overall, these results suggest that natural variation in mesocorticolimbic sensitivity to reward-paired cues underlies behavioral preferences for and vulnerability to alcohol abuse, and support the notion ...

Biomarkers for the Development of New Medications for Cocaine Dependence
2013
Neuropsychopharmacology
Putative diagnostic, pharmacodynamic (PD), and predictive biomarkers for cocaine dependence are discussed across a range of methodological approaches. ...
In this review, we highlight current opportunities and difficulties pertaining to the identification and development of biomarkers for SUDs. We focus on cocaine dependence as an example. ...

Ventral Striatum Binding of a Dopamine D2/3 Receptor Agonist But Not Antagonist Predicts Normal Body Mass Index
2015
Biological Psychiatry
Normal-weight rats given free access to high-fat diets demonstrate behavioral sensitization to D2/3R agonists but not to antagonists. ...
Positron emission tomography research has shown that dopamine D2/3 receptor (D2/3R) availability is negatively correlated with body mass index (BMI) in obese but not in healthy subjects. ...

Variability in Reward Responsivity and Obesity: Evidence from Brain Imaging Studies
2011
Current Drug Abuse Reviews
Elevated sucrose preference in animals is associated with greater self-administration of cocaine [8] and sucrose intake reduces cocaine's reinforcing value [9] . ...
Brain imaging techniques, including functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and positron emission tomography (PET), are increasingly being employed to investigate the neural basis of eating behavior ...
Research also indicates that preferences for high-fat foods predict elevated future weight gain [61, [63] [64] [65] . ...

Translational Psychiatry
Preclinical and human studies suggest a role for dopaminergic function in temporal discounting but this relationship has not yet been verified using molecular imaging of the living human brain. ...

Beer Flavor Provokes Striatal Dopamine Release in Male Drinkers: Mediation by Family History of Alcoholism
2013
Neuropsychopharmacology
Forty-nine men, ranging from social to heavy drinking, mean age 25, with a varied family history of alcoholism underwent two [ 11 C]RAC PET scans: one while tasting beer, and one while tasting Gatorade ...
Employing positron emission tomography (PET), we hypothesized that beer's flavor alone can reduce the binding potential (BP) of [ 11 C]raclopride (RAC; a reflection of striatal DA release) in the ventral ...
