Abstract
At doses that elicit behavioral activation, apomorphine does not induce Fos-protein in the nucleus accumbens of control animals but does under conditions of denervation supersensitivity. The purpose of this study was to determine whether apomorphine induces Fos-protein in animals sensitized by repeated treatment with apomorphine and whether the magnitude of such induction parallels the magnitude of behavioral response observed after different sensitizing paradigms. Apomorphine did induce Fos-protein expression in animals pretreated with apomorphine; however, the rats showing highest levels of induction were not those showing the largest behavioral responses.
