DREADDs as a tool to investigate addictive behavior
A timely review out summarizing what is known and what might be the potential of DREADD technology to elucidate and perhaps to treat addictive behaviors.
CNO in drinking water
We frequently get requests regarding protocols for putting CNO in the drinking water for long-term studies. Here is our protocol: 1. Dissolve the CNO in a small volume of DMSO 2. Diluted the dissolved CNO in drinking water (e.g., 5mg/200ml) 3. Give mice with CNO drinking water and protect from light using foil-wrapped bottles 4. The mice will receive 5mg/kg/day CNO (assume that mice weight 30g and consume 6ml water per day) 5. Prepare fresh daily. 6. A small amount of saccharine in the drinking water will mask the slightly bitter taste of CNO
