The Effects of Ceftriaxone on Glutamate Transporter Expression and the Gut Microbiome: Implications for a Role of Antibiotic-Induced Dysbiosis in Mediating Drug Seeking and Relapse

Ceftriaxone (CTX), a beta-lactam antibiotic, is widely used in drug seeking and relapse studies due to its ability to enhance glutamate transporter (GLT-1) expression in the brain. Since increased synaptic glutamate is believed to drive drug seeking and relapse, CTX’s effect on GLT-1 offers potentia...
