Effect of intra‐NAc microinjections of LY2817412 on voluntary alcohol drinking in male and female msP rats. Male (n = 8) and female (n = 9) msP rats were implanted with bilateral cannulas in the NAc and then subjected to a two‐bottle free‐choice test. Following treatment with LY2817412 (3 and 6 μg·μl−1 per rat) or vehicle, the voluntary intake of (a) alcohol, (b) water, and (c) food was recorded at 2 hr in both male and female msP rats. The data are expressed as mean ± SEM. No significant effects of LY2817412 were observed; two‐way ANOVA followed by Newman–Keuls post hoc test
