Abstract:
The mechanism of substance addiction in the central nervous system is the key point to solve the problem of drug addiction in clinical prophylaxis and treatment, but it has been obscure so far. Previous researches in this field suggested that the higher brain function of the learning and memory might be pivotal in understanding the mechanism of substance addiction. It is the intent of this review to integrate and analyze the substance addiction and the learning and memory in an attempt to shed light on the strategies to conduct further studies in this field.
