Acute ethanol disrupts conditioned inhibition in the male rat

Author(s): Germé K; Pfaus JG;

Rationale: Alcohol can disrupt conditioned sexual inhibition (CSI) established by first-order conditioning in male rats. CSI can also be induced using second-order conditioning, during which male rats are trained to associate a neutral odor with a nonrecept ...

Effects of cabergoline and dimethylcabergoline on the sexual behavior of male rats

Author(s): Pfaus JG; Antonie RA; Dosa PI; Kim SW;

Rationale: Cabergoline (CAB) is an ergot derivative typically prescribed for the treatment of hyperprolactinemia. It suppresses the release of prolactin through agonist actions on dopamine (DA) D2 receptors; however, it possesses binding affinity for other ...

Reciprocal effects of single or repeated exposure to methylphenidate or sex in adult male rats

Author(s): Pallikaras V; Mac Cionnaith CE; Rosales VCF; Arvanitogiannis A; Pfaus JG;

Rationale: Exposure to rewards can alter behavioral reactivity to them. For example, stimulants sensitize locomotor activation, whereas sexual experience sensitizes copulatory behaviors. Moreover, rewards can cross-sensitize one another. Although stimulants ...

Author(s): González Cautela BV; Quintana GR; Akerman J; Pfaus JG;

RATIONALE: Sexual side effects of chronic treatment with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) in humans include anorgasmia and loss of sexual desire and/or arousal which interferes with treatment compliance. There are few options at present to re ...

Appetitive olfactory conditioning in the neonatal male rat facilitates subsequent sexual partner preference.

Author(s): Ménard S, Gelez H, Jacubovitch M, Coria-Avila GA, Pfaus JG

Pairing a neutral odor with a male rat's initial sexual experiences to ejaculation produces a subsequent conditioned ejaculatory preference (CEP) in which males ejaculate preferentially with receptive females that bear the odor relative to unscented rec ...
