| Research Abstract |
In this study, we investigated the role of endogenous opioid system in physical dependence induced by nicotine or alcohol. Treatment of opioid receptor antagonist, naloxone caused withdrawal symptoms in mice administered nicotine twice a day for 5-9 days. Nicotine dependence was suppressed by opioid receptor antagonist, naltrexone. On the other hand, treatment of naloxone caused withdrawal symptoms in mice given water including ethanol (1%). These results suggest that endogenous opioid system plays an important role in physical dependence induced by nicotine or alcohol.
