“…Moreover, in humans, high impulsivity has been positively correlated with high opioid receptor concentrations in the brain, particularly in regions important for motivational behavior and substance abuse ( Love et al, 2009 ). Significantly, Kamboj et al (2021) observed a positive correlation between liking for N 2 O and impulsivity. Since subanaesthetic N 2 O and ketamine have opioid properties ( Smith et al, 1987 ; Sarton et al, 2001 ; Matussek, 2003 ; Emmanouil and Quock, 2007 ; for additional references, see Gillman, 2019a , 2019b), these observations ( Kamboj et al, 2021 ) are more likely to have been due to opioid activity rather than NMDAR blockade.…”
