Zebrafish are getting themselves high — and that could help us develop new addiction treatments

When given the chance, zebrafish willingly dose themselves with opioids — even putting themselves at risk in order to get their fix.

Scientists tested the drug-seeking behavior in a tank that allows the fish to trigger the release of the opioid hydrocodone in the water. The new tool, described in a study published online today in Behavioral Brain Research, can be used to study the underlying biological pathways that push zebrafish to seek drugs. And because zebrafish and humans are surprisingly similar, that could tells us more about biological pathways in people. Eventually, this could lead to new treatments for addiction.

Riddle Me this:

When is a person, like a piece of wood?

I'm watching the Batman TV series, yes I know the answer.

I want to see if anyone else knows.



Euhh? When he sticks around too long?

Poor riddle, not worthy of the Riddler. A ruler can be plastic or metal or a variety of other materials. Plastic ones may not have been common back then, but I'm sure carpenters had metal ones.

I got two letters in the mail Saturday. They were dated three days apart, but both arrived the same day. One said they had applied a temporary credit while investigating my fraud claims. The other said they had finished investigating and the matter is settled.

Still remember Stevie Ray very fondly.
Still remember that last night at Alpine Valley.
I am sure if he were still with us, he'd be writing 'Texas Flooding Again'.

COBRA still hasn't gone through. Starting to run out of meds.

No new job creds yet either.

Not sure what you mean about new job creds, but will you get reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses retroactively once COBRA catches up?

Credentials, ID cards. Theoretically, but don't feel like testing the theory quite yet. Maybe Friday, if necessary.
