【Abstract】 Fos family of transcription factor include Fra 1, Fra 2, FosB, and ΔFosB. The latest found and the smallest known Fos family protein is ΔFosB, derived from the fosB gene via alternative splicing.ΔFosB plays an important role in the long term regulation of brain function, and explain the long lasting behavior response to addictive drug well. Chronic cocaine, morphine, nicotine and amphetamine treatment increases strongly expression of ΔFosB in animal brain, even long time after withdrawal behavior disappears. But acute addictive drug treatment does not increase it. The evidence supports the view that ΔFosB is an important transcription factor in long lasting drug dependence.更多还原
