A, B, Effects of intra-VTA perfusion (15 min before nicotine administration) of different concentrations of CntxMII (A) or CntxPIA (B) on perfusate DA levels in nAc elicited by nicotine (0.4 mg/kg base, i.p.). Mean ± SEM values are expressed as percentage of the last three baseline values before nicotine injection. Statistical analysis was according to repeated-measures ANOVA. A, **p < 0.01 versus aCSF. Group size: aCSF, six rats; CntxMII (10 nm), six rats; CntxMII (100 nm), eight rats; CntxMII (1 μm), eight rats; CntxMII (10 μm), five rats. B, **p < 0.01 versus aCSF. Group size: aCSF, four rats; CntxPIA (10 μm), five rats; Cntx-PIA (100 μm), nine rats.
