Accepted for publication December 8,1993 Current research suggests there are genetic differences in sus-ceptibility to drug abuse. One way to examine this relationship Is to study inbred strains, such as Lewis (LEW) and Fischer 344 (F344) rats, that show differential biochemical and behavioral effects in response to psychoactive drugs. In the present study several behavioral effects of cocaine were compared in these strains, Including conditioned place preference (CPP), cord-tioned taste aversion and locomotor actMty. Cocaine CPP was greater In 11W rats than in F344 rats. In contrast, cocaine conditioned taste aversion did not differ between LEW and F344 rats, or did the locomotor activfty levels seen after the first cocaine administration....
