The cannabinoid receptor ligands, WIN 55,212-2, a non-selective cannabinoid receptor agonist (0.25; 0.5 and 1 mg/kg, ip) and rimonabant, a CB1 cannabinoid receptor antagonist (0.25; 0.5; 1 and 2 mg/kg, ip) were injected prior to each injection of saline or acute and subchronic d-amphetamine or nicotine.

In the second study, the endocannabinoid CB1-receptor antagonist AM251 (1, 3 and 10mg/kg, intraperitoneal) or vehicle was acutely administered before taste reactivity measurement during chronic nicotine administration.

New molecular and neurochemical adaptations in the glutamatergic system which drive cocaine relapse have been identified, such as the ability of CB1 receptor stimulation to reduce basal glutamate levels and the involvement of the GluR1 receptor subunit in reinstatement.
Furthermore, it is apparent that similar glutamatergic neuroadaptations arise after self-administration of cocaine, heroin, nicotine, and alcohol.

Specifically, cannabinoid CB (1) receptor antagonists--including the prototype, rimonabant--have been reported to suppress: (a) acquisition and maintenance of alcohol drinking behavior under the 2-bottle "alcohol vs water" choice regimen; (b) the increase in alcohol intake occurring after a period of alcohol abstinence (an experimental model of alcohol relapse); (c) alcohol's reinforcing and motivational properties measured in rats trained to perform a specific task (e.g., lever-pressing) to access alcohol; (d) reinstatement of extinguished alcohol-seeking behavior triggered in rats by a nicotine challenge or presentation of cues previously associated to alcohol availability (another model of alcohol relapse).

The aim of the present studies is to evaluate the role of CB1 cannabinoid receptors in the reinstatement of nicotine-induced conditioned place preference.

The effect of the acute nicotine challenge (0.05, 0.1 and 0.2 mg/kg, s.c.) and the CB1 receptor antagonist AM251 (0.1, 0.3 and 1 mg/kg, intraperitoneal [i.p.]) on responding for the CS and/or UCS was examined.

Nicotine and the CS were only able to independently maintain responding to similar level under the [FI 10' (FR3: S)] schedule, which was subsequently employed to examine the effects of the selective CB1 receptor antagonist AM251.

Furthermore, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of CB1 cannabinoid receptor antagonist rimonabant (0.5, 1 and 2mg/kg, i.p.) in blocking the reinstatement of nicotine-induced CPP provoked by nicotine and morphine.
