Imaging CRF X NOP Interactions in Alcohol Use Disorder (NCT07612631)
Does a Hyperactive Nociceptin Opioid Peptide Receptor System Promote Relapse in Heavy Drinking AUD Subjects: a [C-11]NOP-1A and Hydrocortisone PET Study
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This positron emission tomography imaging study uses \[C-11\]NOP-1A and hydrocortisone to image stress-modulating proteins in heavy drinking alcohol use disorder (AUD) subjects and healthy controls (HC). It will also characterize the role of these stress-regulating proteins in a relapse to alcohol.
