Neurotrophic signaling is thought to be important for neuroplasticity in certain forebrain regions following psychostimulant exposure. In this study, we found that repeated administration of amphetamine (5 mg/kg, once daily, 5 days) to rats significantly increased tyrosine kinase-B receptor mRNA levels in the striatum, ventral bed nucleus, and piriform cortex. The most robust increase in tyrosine kinase-B expression occurred in dorsal aspects of the striatum, which also showed elevated levels after a single amphetamine injection. These findings indicate that changes in striatal tyrosine kinase-B signaling could play a role in neuroadaptations and behavioral changes induced by amphetamine treatment.
