G9a inhibitors are a potential therapeutic for addiction! I'm excited about my first "last author" paper and the first data from my lab at @lsu.bsky.social @lsuvetmed.bsky.social With co-authors Marcelo Lopez, Paulina Misztak, Howard Becker, Christopher Cowan! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40926332/
Targeting G9a decreases escalated alcohol drinking in male mice in a model of combined stress and chronic alcohol exposure - PubMed
These preclinical data suggest that reducing NAc G9a levels, or suppressing its enzymatic activity, can effectively reduce potentiated alcohol drinking produced by stress and/or alcohol dependence. Th...

It was great hosting Kade Smith from the office of Representative Julia Letlow, Ph.D. recently at Louisiana State University. We were excited to show you some of the great research funded by the NIH right here in Baton Rouge as a follow up to #SfNHillDay. #NeuroAdvocates #neuroscience #biomedical
We welcomed Kade Smith, legislative assistant to Louisiana Congresswoman Julia Letlow, to LSU Vet Med. His visit included a tour, meetings with biomedical researchers, and a discussion of the vital role LSU Vet Med plays in advancing health and well-being across Louisiana.

New paper out! We examined a novel role for a sodium channel subunit in the nucleus accumbens on heroin seeking behavior. Thanks to all the other authors for their excellent help! www.eneuro.org/content/earl...
Heroin regulates the voltage-gated sodium channel auxiliary subunit, SCN1b, to modulate nucleus accumbens medium spiny neuron intrinsic excitability and cue-induced heroin seeking.
Self-administration of addictive substances like heroin can couple the rewarding/euphoric effects of the drug with drug-associated cues, and opioid cue reactivity contributes to relapse vulnerability ...
