Mitragynine-Induced Conditioned Place Preference (CPP) And The Profiles Of Dopamine And Its Metabolites In Rats
Mitragyna speciosa (M. speciosa) Korth is a traditional herbal plant indigenous to Southeast Asia. Regular use of this plant by human may lead to addiction with profound withdrawal symptoms. It is hypothesized that the abuse of M. speciosa preparations could be attributed to mitragynine, the main ps...
