Addictive substances mediate positive and negative states promoting persistent
drug use. However, substrates for aversive effects of drugs remain elusive. We
found that, in mouse lateral habenula (LHb) neurons targeting the rostromedial
tegmental nucleus, cocaine enhanced glutamatergic transmission, reduced K(+)
currents and increased excitability. GluA1 trafficking in LHb was instrumental
for these cocaine-evoked modifications and drug-driven aversive behaviors.
Altogether, our results suggest that long-lasting adaptations in LHb shape
negative symptoms after drug taking.
