Reinstatement of toluene self-administration behavior. (A) Cue-induced reinstatement of responding in rats extinguished from toluene SA behavior. Left panel shows average vapor deliveries in rats self-administering toluene (SA; last week average), after extinction (EXT) or during re-instatement (REIN); ∗∗∗p < 0.001 REIN vs. EXT, Dunnett’s post hoc. Right panel shows vapor deliveries, active (ANP) and inactive nose pokes (INP; right panel) vapor deliveries in rats self-administering toluene (SA; last week average), after extinction (EXT) or during re-instatement (REIN); ^^p < 0.01 REIN vs. SA; ∗∗p < 0.01 REIN vs. EXT; ++p < 0.01 Tol ANP vs. Tol INP during REIN, Sidak’s post hoc. (B) A brief (15 s) exposure to 500 ppm toluene vapor prior to testing failed to reinstate responding in the active hole. One-way ANOVA and post hoc testing revealed a significant difference between SA and REIN groups (∗∗p < 0.01) Data shown are average vapor deliveries (left panel) or active (ANP) and inactive nose pokes (INP, right panel) in rats self-administering toluene (SA; last week average), after extinction (EXT) or during re-instatement (REIN). (C) Cues did not alter responding in Air rats. Data shown are average vapor deliveries (left panel) or active (ANP) and inactive nose pokes (INP; right panel) in rats self-administering Air (SA; last week average), after extinction (EXT) or during re-instatement (REIN). All data are mean ± SEM. Air N = 6, Tol N = 6.
