We recently reported that central injections of noradrenaline (NA) induce reinstatement of cocaine seeking in rats. Here, we replicate and extend our finding to an additional dose of NA and show that it is associated with the induction of c-fos mRNA expression (a marker of neuronal activation) in functionally relevant brain regions, including the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis and central nucleus of the amygdala.
