Baclofen suppresses cFos and ΔFosB mRNA expression levels as well as phosphorylation of DARPP32 in the CPu. (AC) The mRNA expression levels of cFos (A) and ΔFosB (B), and phosphorylation of dopamine- and cyclic-AMP–regulated phosphoprotein of molecular weight 32,000 (DARPP32) protein (C) in the caudate putamen (CPu) in wild-type (WT) mice of the binge group treated with baclofen and vehicle. (DF) The mRNA expression levels of cFos (D) and ΔFosB (E), and phosphorylation of DARPP32 (F) in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) in WT mice of the binge group treated with baclofen and vehicle. All values are mean ± SEM. Statistical analyses were performed using two-way factorial analysis of variance (ANOVA) (A,B,D and E) followed by Sidak’s post-hoc test or an unpaired t test (C and F). #p < 0.05 versus 0 min in WT mice. †p < 0.05 versus 0 min in KO mice. *p < 0.05 versus WT mice.
