BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
The analgesic action of 5-HT and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) on nociceptive synaptic transmission in the spinal cord is poorly understood. We investigated the effects of milnacipran, an SNRI, on C-fibre-evoked field potentials (FPs) in spinal long-term potentiation (LTP), a proposed synaptic mechanism of hypersensitivity, and on the FPs in a neuropathic pain model.EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH
C-fibre-evoked FPs by electrical stimulation of the sciatic nerve fibres were recorded in the spinal dorsal horn of anaesthetized adult rats, and LTP was induced by high-frequency stimulation of the sciatic nerve fibres. A rat model of neuropathic pain was produced by L5 spinal nerve ligation and transection.KEY RESULTS
Milnacipran produced prolonged inhibition of C-fibre-evoked FPs when applied spinally after the establishment of LTP of C-fibre-evoked FPs in naïve animals. In the neuropathic pain model, spinal administration of milnacipran clearly reduced the basal C-fibre-evoked FPs. These inhibitory effects of milnacipran were blocked by spinal administration of methysergide, a 5-HT1/2 receptor antagonist, and yohimbine or idazoxan, α2-adrenoceptor antagonists. However, spinal administration of milnacipran in naïve animals did not affect the basal C-fibre-evoked FPs and the induction of spinal LTP.CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS
Milnacipran inhibited C-fibre-mediated nociceptive synaptic transmission in the spinal dorsal horn after the establishment of spinal LTP and in the neuropathic pain model, by activating both spinal 5-hydroxytryptaminergic and noradrenergic systems. The condition-dependent inhibition of the C-fibre-mediated transmission by milnacipran could provide novel evidence regarding the analgesic mechanisms of SNRIs in chronic pain. 相似文献2.
Milnacipran Remediates Impulsive Deficits in Rats with Lesions of the Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex

Background:
Deficits in impulse control are often observed in psychiatric disorders in which abnormalities of the prefrontal cortex are observed, including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and bipolar disorder. We recently found that milnacipran, a serotonin/noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, could suppress impulsive action in normal rats. However, whether milnacipran could suppress elevated impulsive action in rats with lesions of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex, which is functionally comparable with the human prefrontal cortex, remains unknown.Methods:
Selective lesions of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex were made using quinolinic acid in rats previously trained on a 3-choice serial reaction time task. Sham rats received phosphate buffered saline. Following a period of recovery, milnacipran (0 or 10mg/kg/d × 14 days) was orally administered 60 minutes prior to testing on the 3-choice task. After 7 days of drug cessation, Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, electrophysiological analysis, and morphological analysis were conducted.Results:
Lesions of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex induced impulsive deficits, and repeated milnacipran ameliorated the impulsive deficit both during the dosing period and after the cessation of the drug. Repeated milnacipran remediated the protein levels of mature brain-derived neurotrophic factor and postsynaptic density-95, dendritic spine density, and excitatory currents in the few surviving neurons in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex of ventromedial prefrontal cortex-lesioned rats.Conclusions:
The findings of this study suggest that milnacipran treatment could be a novel strategy for the treatment of psychiatric disorders that are associated with a lack of impulse control. 相似文献3.

Rationale
Elevated impulsivity is often observed in patients with depression. We recently found that milnacipran, an antidepressant and a serotonin/noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, could enhance impulse control in rats. However, the neural mechanisms underlying the effects of milnacipran on impulsive action remain unclear. Milnacipran increases not only extracellular serotonin and noradrenaline but also dopamine specifically in the medial prefrontal cortex, which is one of the brain regions responsible for impulsive action.Objectives
Our goal was to identify whether D1- and/or D2-like receptors in the infralimbic cortex (IL), the ventral portion of the medial prefrontal cortex, mediates the milnacipran-enhanced impulse control in a three-choice serial reaction time task.Methods
The rats were bilaterally injected with SCH23390, a selective D1-like receptor antagonist (0.3 or 3 ng/side) or eticlopride, a selective D2-like receptor antagonist (0.3 or 1 μg/side) into the IL after acute intraperitoneal administration of milnacipran (10 mg/kg).Results
Intra-IL SCH23390 injections reversed the milnacipran-enhanced impulse control, whereas injections of eticlopride into the IL failed to block the effects of milnacipran on impulsive action.Conclusions
This is the first report that demonstrates a critical role for D1-like receptors of the IL in milnacipran-enhanced control of impulsive action. 相似文献4.

Introduction
Serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) are antidepressants which have high affinity to both serotonin transporter (SERT) and norepinephrine transporter (NET). In studies in vitro, SNRIs have been reported to show a large variability in the affinity ratio between SERT and NET. For instance, the reported affinity ratio is about 30 for venlafaxine and 1.6 for milnacipran. In this study in nonhuman primates, we aimed to investigate the relationship between SERT and NET affinity by measuring the in vivo occupancy at both transporters of venlafaxine and milnacipran.Methods
PET measurements with [11C]MADAM and [18F]FMeNER-D2 were performed in two female cynomolgus monkeys at baseline and after pretreatment with venlafaxine and milnacipran, respectively. Relationships between dose, plasma concentration, and transporter occupancy were evaluated by saturation analysis using a hyperbolic function. Binding affinity (Kdplasma) was expressed by the dose or plasma concentration at which 50 % of the transporter was occupied.Results
SERT and NET occupancy by venlafaxine and milnacipran increased in a dose and plasma concentration-dependent manner. The Kdplasma ratio of SERT to NET was 1.9 for venlafaxine and 0.6 for milnacipran.Conclusions
In this nonhuman primate PET study, the affinity in vivo for SERT and NET, respectively, was shown to be at a similar level for venlafaxine and milnacipran. Both drugs were found to produce balanced inhibition of SERT and NET binding. This observation is not consistent with previous in vitro binding data and illustrates the need to characterize antidepressants at in vivo condition. 相似文献18.
