It is also hypothesized that these neurobiological changes might explain the emotional and cognitive dysfunctions experienced by crack cocaine addicts. Molecular changes include decreases in neurotrophic factors and increases in oxidative stress and inflammatory cytokines, which may be responsible for the morphological alterations observed. Among the neurobiological alterations are reductions in the activity of the prefrontal, anterior cingulate cortex, and nucleus accumbens. The main behavioral sequelae include cognitive and emotional changes, such as increased anxiety and depressive symptoms, attention and memory deficits, and hyperactivity. The results show that the use of crack cocaine induces important behavioral, neuroanatomical, and biochemical alterations. The present study is a literature review of articles published between the years 20 on the theme вЂcrack cocaine and brainвЂ™ available in PUBMED, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Google scholar databases. Nevertheless, which alterations in the central nervous system are related to its frequent use is still a matter of discussion. It is hypothesized that crack cocaine is able to induce important changes in different tissues and organs, and thus dramatically alter behavior. Crack cocaine is the crystal form of cocaine and can be smoked, and rapidly absorbed, and, in part for this reason, is potently addictive.
