DREADD-induced inactivation of the lateral orbitofrontal cortex increases drinking in ethanol-dependent but not non-dependent mice
I'm seeing a lot of work with DREADDs among researchers in the ETOH field. Here's an interesting paper
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
