ABSTRACT:

Addiction is a chronic disorder with a high risk of relapse. The neural mechanisms mediating addictions require protein synthesis, which could be relevant for the development of more effective treatments. The mTOR signaling pathway regulates protein synthesis processes that have recently been linked to the development of drug addiction. PUBMED: 30887859
