Drug abuse is considered a public health problem worldwide. In Brazil, epidemiological data have shown an increase in the consumption of licit and illicit drugs, among them anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) and ethanol. Studies have shown a relationship between use of AAS, ethanol consumption and physical exercise. Although the relevance of the theme, a comprehensive review of the litera…

Several evidences in the literature have demonstrated the deleterious effects that acute and chronic stress can trigger in individuals. The emergence of depression and anxiety disorder are possible consequences of these effects. The social defeat (SD) stress is an animal model that can be used to investigate the effects of acute and chronic stress on anxiety-related behavior in mice submi…
The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is ivolved in the modulation of different behaviors, which include those associated with the use of ethanol and response to stressors. This brain region is predominantly composed of glutamatergic neurons and GABAergic interneurons, in addition to receiving dopaminergic afferents from the ventral tegmental area. Recently, it has been proposed that the mP…
Learned associations play an important role in addiction. With repeated drug use, addicts learn to associate drug effects with stimuli or cues in the drug environment, such as drug paraphernalia, context, and people. Over time, these cues can promote drug craving and relapse. These drug-related cues are complex combinations of different stimuli that are recognized with a high degree of r…

Rats submitted to the single prolonged stress (SPS) procedure demonstrate impaired fear extinction and increased anxiety, similar to those behavioral and physiological symptoms observed in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) patients. The prefrontal cortex (PFC) plays a role in the modulation of emotional memory consolidation through its interactions with other brain regions like the amy…
Alcohol abuse is a worldwide problem with concomitant medical, social and economic costs for which pharmacotherapeutic approaches are limited. As a result, most patients relapse within the first months of treatment (MILLER and HESTER, 1986; SINHA, 2011). In particular, cues that have been associated with alcohol can trigger alcohol-related memories, leading to craving and relapse to alcoh…
Tobacco is considered a licit drug in the majority of countries around the world. Adolescence is considered a risk factor for drug abuse and dependence. High rates of nicotine dependence are seen among adolescents. The withdrawal effects of nicotine are considered as an important factor related to relapse to nicotine seeking. Previous studies indicate that specific patterns of sparsely di…
