Neocortex Gene Expression Correlates for MDMA_ACT_MDA_1 measured in BXD RI Females obtained using GeneNetwork Neocortex ILM6v1.1 (Feb08) RankInv. The MDMA_ACT_MDA_1 measures Locomotor response of 10 mg/kg MDMA injected on Day 2 under the domain MDMA. The correlates were thresholded at a p-value of less than 0.001.

QTL for ethanol conditioned taste aversion on Chr2 at NA (35.13 Mbp , Build 37)
Description:
ethanol conditioned taste aversion spans 10.13 - 60.13 Mbp (NCBI Build 37) on Chr2. This interval was obtained by using an interval width of 25 Mbp around the peak marker (Build 37, MGI, http://informatics.jax.org).
QTL for METH responses for climbing on Chr2 at Brp13 (41.42 Mbp , Build 37)
Description:
METH responses for climbing spans 16.42 - 66.42 Mbp (NCBI Build 37) on Chr2. This interval was obtained by using an interval width of 25 Mbp around the peak marker (Build 37, MGI, http://informatics.jax.org).
QTL for ethanol consumption on Chr2 at D2Mit7 (47.24 Mbp , Build 37)
Description:
ethanol consumption spans 22.24 - 72.24 Mbp (NCBI Build 37) on Chr2. This interval was obtained by using an interval width of 25 Mbp around the peak marker (Build 37, MGI, http://informatics.jax.org).
Here, female High Drinking in the Dark (HDID) mice were stereotaxically injected with 0.5uL rAAV2/5-CMV-Cre-GFP and 0.5uL rAAV2-hSyn-DIO-hM3Dq-mCherry bilaterally into the NAc. A Drinking in the Dark (DID) experiment lasting 6 weeks was carried out with 2 fluid groups (water or ethanol) and 2 treatment groups (VEH/VEH/VEH or VEH/CNO/VEH). Mice were serially treated with vehicle prior to DID during week 1 to establish baseline drinking, CNO (1mg/kg) during weeks 2-5 to measure the effects of chronic treatment, and then mice were treated with vehicle again during week 6 to determine if there were any lasting effects of chronic CNO treatment. This gene set comprises 1,473 genes that were differentially expressed in the nucleus accumbens of ethanol drinking HDID mice treated with vehicle as compared to the water drinking and vehicle treated control group.

This gene set comprises 688 genes that were uniquely differentially expressed in the nucleus accumbens of only ethanol drinking HDID mice treated with vehicle as compared to the water drinking and vehicle treated control group.

differentially expressed genes (p < .05) for short access cocaine self-admin (2 weeks) or saline self-admin from C57 inbred mice. Used data from Walker et al. 2018 Biological Psychiatry.
Genes that are suppressed by THC in total lymph node (LN) cells in C57BL/6J mice. Gene expression was evaluated via RNA-seq. Values presented are "1" for effect presence. Data taken from Supplemental Data 1.

Authors develop a brain reward circuit-wide atlas of opioid-induced transcriptional regulation by combining RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and heroin self-administration in male mice modeling multiple OUD-relevant conditions: acute heroin exposure, chronic heroin intake, context-induced drug-seeking following abstinence, and relapse. Bioinformatics analysis of this rich dataset identified numerous patterns of transcriptional regulation, with both region-specific and pan-circuit biological domains affected by heroin. Integration of RNA-seq data. This design enabled investigation of the transcriptomic landscape in multiple conditions that model distinct aspects of the OUD syndrome: first-ever heroin exposure (SH), ongoing/early withdrawal from heroin intake (H24), context-induced heroin-seeking following protracted abstinence (HS), and a combination of drug-induced and context-induced heroin-seeking representative of a relapse-like episode (HH). with OUD-relevant behavioral outcomes uncovered region-specific molecular changes and biological processes that predispose to OUD vulnerability.
