Schematic of the experimental paradigm. Each session following training
assessed breakpoints on a progressive-ratio schedule of reinforcement using
cocaine (0.1875, 0.375, 0.75 mg/kg/infusion) across three phases based on
treatment. Phase 1 (blue shaded) tested the effects of LY379268 (0.03 or 0.30
mg/kg, counterbalanced) alone, Phase 2 (non-shaded/white) allowed time for
breakpoints to stabilize after the last LY379268 dose, Phase 2 (green and white
checker shaded) tested the effects of phenmetrazine alone, and Phase 3 (green
shaded) tested the combined effects of LY379268 and phenmetrazine on cocaine
breakpoints. Osmotic mini-pump delivered phenmetrazine (25 mg/kg/day). FR1,
fixed ratio 1; PR, progressive ratio.
