Conditioned responding to drug-predictive discrete cues can be strongly modulated by drug-associated contexts. We tested the hypothesis that differential recruitment of the nucleus accumbens core and shell mediates responding to drug cues in a drug versus non-drug context. Rats were trained to discriminate between two, 10-sec auditory stimuli: one stimulus (CS+) was paired with ethanol (10% v/v; 0.2ml; oral) while the other (CS−) was not. Training occurred in operant conditioning chambers distinguished by contextual stimuli, and resulted in increased entries into the ethanol delivery port during the CS+ compared to the CS−. In Experiment 1, port-entries were then extinguished in a second context by withholding ethanol, after which context-induced renewal of ethanol-seeking was tested by presenting both stimuli without ethanol in the prior training context. This manipulation stimulated strong responding to the CS+ in rats pretreated with saline in the core (n=9) or shell (n=10), which was attenuated by pharmacologically inactivating (muscimol/baclofen; 0.1/1.0 mM; 0.3μl/side) either subregion pretest. In Experiment 2, following discrimination training rats were habituated to a different context where ethanol and both stimuli were withheld. Cue-induced ethanol-seeking was then elicited by presenting the CS+ and CS− without ethanol in the different context. Saline pretreated rats responded more to the CS+ than the CS− (core n=8; shell n=9), and inactivating the core but not shell attenuated this effect. These data highlight an important role for the core in cue-induced ethanol-seeking, and suggest that the shell is required to mediate the influence of contexts on conditioned ethanol-seeking.
