Alcohol exposure disrupts mu opioid receptor-mediated long-term depression at insular cortex inputs to dorsolateral striatum
µ-opioid receptors (MOR) are known to modulate the reward effects of drugs of abuse, and MOR activation induces long-term depression (LTD) at striatal synapses. Here the authors show that alcohol exposure disrupts MOR-induced LTD only at specific cortical inputs to the striatum.
