Site-Specific Microinjection of Baclofen Into the Anterior Ventral Tegmental Area Reduces Binge-Like Ethanol Intake in Male C57BL/6J Mice.

The GABAB agonist baclofen has been shown to alter ethanol intake in human and animal studies (E. M. Moore et al., 2007). GABAB receptors are located within the ventral tegmental area (VTA; A.
