Influence of nitric oxide on morphine-induced conditioned place preference in the rat central amygdala 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Effects of intra-central amygdala injections of L-arginine, a nitric oxide (NO) precursor, and N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), a NO synthase (NOS) inhibitor, on morphine-induced conditioned place preference in rats were investigated by using an unbiased 3-day schedule of place conditioning design. Animals receiving once daily injections of morphine (0.5-7.5 mg/kg, subcutaneously, s.c.) or saline (1.0 ml/kg, s.c.) showed a significant place preference in a dose-dependent manner. The maximum response was observed with 5.0 mg/kg of the opioid. Co-administration of morphine (5.0 mg/kg) with L-arginine (0.3, 1.0 and 3.0 microg/rat), but not with L-NAME (0.3, 1.0 and 3.0 microg/rat), during the acquisition of morphine-induced conditioned place preference increased morphine-induced conditioned place preference. The response to L-arginine was blocked by L-NAME preadministration. L-arginine and L-NAME by themselves did not induce conditioned place preference. When L-arginine or L-NAME at 0.3-3.0 microg/rat was administered 1 min before conditioned place preference testing, L-arginine but not L-NAME caused an increase in the expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference, the effect that was blocked by L-NAME preadministration. A dose of L-arginine (0.3 microg/rat), but not L-NAME, during expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference produced an increase in locomotion compared with that in the control group. It may be concluded that an increase in the NO levels in the central amygdala may have an effect on the acquisition and expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference. 相似文献

The effect of the non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonist dizocilpine (MK-801) on conditioned place preference induced by morphine was studied in mice. As expected, morphine (1–8 mg/kg, IP) elicited a significant preference for the drug-paired compartment. Pretreatment of mice with (+)-dizocilpine (0.1 and 0.2 mg/kg, IP), the more active dizocilpine enantiomer, dose-dependently reversed the conditioned place preference produced by morphine (4 mg/kg, IP), whereas (–)-dizocilpine (0.2 mg/kg, IP) did not modify morphine-induced effects. In contrast, both enantiomers of dizocilpine (at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg, IP) elicited a conditioned place preference. These data suggest that (1) NMDA receptors play a role in morphine-induced place preference, and (2) dizocilpine-reinforcing properties in the place preference paradigm do not seem to be dependent on NMDA receptor blockade. 相似文献

Role of nitric oxide in the rat hippocampal CA1 area on morphine-induced conditioned place preference 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Effects of intrahippocampal CA1 injections of L-arginine, a nitric oxide (NO) precursor, and N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, on morphine-induced conditioned place preference in male Wistar rats were investigated. Animals received subcutaneous (s.c.) injections of saline (1.0 ml/kg) or morphine (0.5-7.5 mg/kg) once daily for 3 days to induce conditioned place preference. The administration of L-arginine (0.3, 1.0, and 3.0 microg/rat), but not L-NAME (0.3, 1.0, and 3.0, microg/rat), prior to administration of morphine (5.0 mg/kg) during acquisition of morphine-induced conditioned place preference increased morphine-induced conditioned place preference, but the interaction between the response to morphine and/or L-arginine was not statistically significant. The response to L-arginine was blocked by L-NAME pre-administration. L-Arginine or L-NAME by itself did not induce conditioned place preference. The administration of L-arginine but not L-NAME, 1 min before conditioned place preference testing, increased the expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference. Pre-administration of L-NAME blocked the L-arginine response. It is concluded that NO in the rat hippocampal CA1 area may be involved in morphine-induced conditioned place preference. 相似文献

Mesolimbic NMDA receptors are implicated in the expression of conditioned morphine reward 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Systemic administration of a variety of N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists inhibits morphine’s rewarding properties in the conditioned place preference
test. In this study, we investigated the anatomical loci implicated in the inhibition of expression of morphine’s reward by
bilateral microinjections of a selective NMDA antagonist into the mesolimbic areas, including ventral tegmental area and nucleus
accumbens. During conditioning, injections of 1 mg/kg morphine were associated with placing rats in one chamber of the place
preference box; the exposures to the other chamber were associated with placebo administration. On the test day, drug-free
control subjects demonstrated a marked preference for the morphine-associated chamber. Systemic administration of 5 mg/kg
and 10 mg/kg of the competitive NMDA antagonist, NPC 17742 (2R,4R,5S-2-amino-4,5-(1,2-cyclohexyl)-7-phosphonoheptanoic acid), significantly reduced the expression of morphine-induced conditioned
place preference; the dose of 10 mg/kg produced also an inhibition of locomotor activity. Similar attenuation of the expression
of morphine-induced conditioned place preference was observed in rats receiving 15.6 and 62.5 ng/0.5 μl side of NPC 17742
injected bilaterally into the nucleus accumbens and ventral tegmental area. While the higher intra-accumbal dose of NPC 17742
produced behavioral stimulation, intra-tegmental injection did not affect locomotor activity. These findings suggest that
activation of NMDA receptors in the nucleus accumbens and ventral tegmental area is necessary for the elicitation of approach
by environments previously associated with morphine’s rewarding action.

In the present study, the effects of acute administration of nicotine, as well as nicotinic and muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonists, on the expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference, have been investigated in male Swiss-Webster mice. Animals received different doses of morphine 5 days after surgical cannulation in the lateral ventricle. Subcutaneous injections of morphine (2-5 mg/kg) in mouse produced place preference in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, both intraperitoneal (0.0006-0.1 mg/kg) and intracerebroventricular (0.007-25 ng) nicotine administration significantly reduced the expression of morphine-induced place preference, in a dose-dependent manner. Nicotine, however, was effective over narrow ultra-low dose ranges (0.0012, 0.0025, 0.005 and 0.01 mg/kg; intraperitoneal) and (0.03, 0.1, 0.3 and 0.6 ng/mouse; intracerebroventricular). In addition, locomotor activity was reduced when higher doses of nicotine [both intraperitoneal (0.02, 0.03 and 0.1 mg/kg) and intracerebroventricular (10 and 24 ng/mouse)] were used. Nicotine alone, however, did not cause motivational effects. Intracerebroventricular injection of hexamethonium (0.03, 0.1 and 0.3 mug/mouse; 10 min before nicotine) diminished the effects of nicotine on morphine-induced conditioned place preference. This effect could neither be obtained by intraperitoneal administration of hexamethonium (1, 5 and 10 mg/kg; 30 min before nicotine), nor be reproduced after either intracerebroventricular or intraperitoneal injection of atropine (a muscarinic receptor antagonist). The antagonists, themselves, did not show any motivational effects when used alone and were unable to affect the expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference. It appears that ultra-low doses of nicotine can reduce the expression of morphine-induced place preference, and that central nicotinic acetylcholine receptors play a role in this regard. 相似文献

In the present study we examined the effect of MPEP [2-methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)-pyridine] a potent, selective and systemically active metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) type I (subtype mGluR5) antagonist on conditioned morphine reward in mice. In an unbiased version of conditioned place preference (CPP) paradigm, single conditioning with 10 mg/kg of morphine produced reliable place preference. MPEP at 30, but not 10 mg/kg significantly inhibited the acquisition as well as expression of morphine-induced CPP, but it neither produced place preference or aversion, nor affected locomotor activity of mice. Effects of MPEP on learning and memory were studied in the elevated plus maze model of spatial learning. In contrast to 0.1 mg/kg of MK-801, which inhibited the acquisition of this task, 30 mg/kg of MPEP affected neither learning nor memory retrieval. These data suggest that mGluR5 may be involved in conditioned morphine reward. 相似文献

The present study was conducted to investigate the potential sex-differences in morphine-induced conditioned place preference. A 3-day unbiased conditioning procedure was used to establish conditioned place preference in adult male and female Wistar rats (weighing 200-250 g). The effect of morphine on locomotor activity of subjects was also studied. Naloxone (0.5-2 mg/kg, i.p.), a selective antagonist of mu-opioid receptor or sulpiride (0.5-2 mg/kg, s.c.), a selective antagonist of dopamine D(2) receptor was administered, during conditioning, to indicate the receptor-mediated mechanisms governing upon possible sex-differences to the opioid response. Results show that morphine (0.5-10 mg/kg, s.c.) differently produced a significant place preference in female and male Wistar rats. Although, the opioid maximum response in both sexes was observed at 7.5 mg/kg, but, it was found that female rats acquired conditioned place preference at a lower dose (0.5 mg/kg, s.c.) of morphine compared to male rats. Moreover, the increase in morphine-induced response at higher doses (5-10 mg/kg, s.c.) was more pronounced in females than the males, indicating that female Wistar rats are more sensitive to the place conditioning induced by morphine. Also, the females were more sensitive to locomotor activation induced by morphine at least at one dose (7.5 mg/kg). Animals' body-weight at 10 mg/kg of opioid was increased, the effect that was not dependent to sex. The results also demonstrate that naloxone (1 and 2 mg/kg, i.p.) induced a significant place preference in two sexes with no significant effect on animals' locomotor activity. The antagonist in males but not in females showed a significant effect on animals' body-weight. Naloxone (0.5-2 mg/kg, i.p.) prior-administration to morphine, during conditioning, attenuated the opioid response in two sexes. The attenuation of the morphine response was more pronounced in males than the other sex at the higher dose (2 mg/kg) of the antagonist. In addition, the preadministration of naloxone, during morphine conditioning, both attenuated the drug-induced hyperactivity in females and decreased the animals' body-weight, albeit more effectively in females than the males. Sulpiride injections (1 and 2 mg/kg s.c.), during the conditioning period, induced a significant aversion in males but not in females with no significant effect either on locomotor activity or body-weight in both sexes. When sulpiride (0.5-2 mg/kg, s.c.), during conditioning, was morphine pre-injected, the antagonist at higher doses significantly attenuated the opioid response in males, reflecting the involvement of dopamine D(2) receptor in sex-dependent morphine-conditioned place preference. Prior-injections of sulpiride to morphine produced a significant effect on locomotor activity of females. The effect of the antagonist preinjections on body-weight was also observed in males. Present results indicate sex-differences both in reinforcing and locomotor activity effects of morphine in Wistar rats. 相似文献

The effect of l-12-chloroscoulerine (l-CSL), a novel ligand with dual dopamine D1 receptor agonistic and D2 receptor antagonistic actions, on the development of morphine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) was investigated in mice. Morphine (10 mg/kg)-induced place preference was dose dependently suppressed by coadministration of l-CSL (5, 10 and 20 mg/kg), which induced neither place preference nor place aversion when administered alone at a dose of 20 mg/kg. The D1 receptor antagonist SCH23390 (0.1 mg/kg) suppressed, whereas the D2 receptor agonist (+/-)-2-(N-phenylethyl-N-propyl)-amino-5-hydroxytetralin (PPHT) (0.5 mg/kg) had no influence on the development of morphine-induced place preference. However, SCH23390 (0.1 mg/kg) did not affect, whereas PPHT (0.5 mg/kg) reversed the suppressive effect of l-CSL on the development of morphine-induced place preference. These results indicate that l-CSL suppresses the development of place preference of morphine by blocking D2 receptors. 相似文献

Inhibition of glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCP II; NAALADase) produces a variety of effects on glutamatergic neurotransmission. The aim of this study was to investigate effects of GCP II inhibition with the selective inhibitor, 2-PMPA, on: (a) development of tolerance to the antinociceptive effects, (b) withdrawal, and (c) conditioned reward produced by morphine in C57/Bl mice. The degree of tolerance was assessed using the tail-flick test before and after 6 days of twice daily (b.i.d.) administration of 2-PMPA and 10 mg/kg of morphine. Opioid withdrawal was measured 3 days after twice daily morphine (30 or 10 mg/kg) administration, followed by naloxone challenge. Conditioned morphine reward was investigated using conditioned place preference with a single morphine dose (10 mg/kg). High doses of 2-PMPA inhibited the development of morphine tolerance (resembling the effect of 7.5 mg/kg of the NMDA receptor antagonist, memantine) while not affecting the severity of withdrawal. A high dose of 2-PMPA (100 mg/kg) also significantly potentiated morphine withdrawal, but inhibited both acquisition and expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference. Memantine inhibited the intensity of morphine withdrawal as well as acquisition and expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference. In addition, 2-PMPA did not affect learning or memory retrieval in a simple two-trial test, nor did it produce withdrawal symptoms in morphine-dependent, placebo-challenged mice. Results suggest involvement of GCP II (NAALADase) in phenomena related to opioid addiction. 相似文献

Morphine-induced place preference: involvement of cholinergic receptors of the ventral tegmental area 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

In the present study, the effects of intra-ventral tegmental area injections of cholinergic agents on morphine-induced conditioned place preference were investigated by using an unbiased 3-day schedule of place conditioning design in rats. The conditioning treatments with subcutaneous injections of morphine (0.5-7.5 mg/kg) induced a significant dose-dependent conditioned place preference for the drug-associated place. Intra-ventral tegmental area injection of an anticholinesterase, physostigmine (2.5 and 5 microg/rat) or nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist, nicotine (0.5 and 1 microg/rat) with an ineffective dose of morphine (0.5 mg/kg) elicited a significant conditioned place preference. Furthermore, intra-ventral tegmental area administration of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist, atropine (1-4 microg/rat) or nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist, mecamylamine (5 and 7.5 microg/rat) dose-dependently inhibited the morphine (5 mg/kg)-induced place preference. Atropine or mecamylamine reversed the effect of physostigmine or nicotine on morphine response respectively. The injection of physostigmine, but not atropine, nicotine or mecamylamine, into the ventral tegmental area alone produced a significant place aversion. Moreover, intra-ventral tegmental area administration of the higher doses of physostigmine or atropine, but not nicotine or mecamylamine decreased the locomotor activity. We conclude that muscarinic and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the ventral tegmental area may critically mediate the rewarding effects of morphine. 相似文献

Fenamate-induced enhancement of heterologously expressed HERG currents in Xenopus oocytes 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
In the present study, the effects of intra-nucleus accumbens injection of L-arginine, a nitric oxide (NO) precursor, and N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), a nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor, on morphine-induced conditioned place preference in male Wistar rats were investigated. Our data showed that subcutaneous (s.c.) injection of morphine sulphate (0.5-10 mg/kg) significantly increased the time spent in the drug-paired compartment in a dose-dependent manner. Intra-accumbens administration of L-arginine (0.03 and 0.05 microg/rat) with an ineffective dose of morphine (0.5 mg/kg) elicited significant conditioned place preference, while intra-accumbens administration of L-NAME (0.3, 0.1 and 1 microg/rat) decreased the acquisition of conditioned place preference induced by morphine (7.5 mg/kg). The response to different doses of L-arginine was decreased by L-NAME (0.03 microg/rat). L-Arginine and L-NAME by themselves did not elicit any effect on place conditioning. Intra-accumbens administration of L-arginine but not L-NAME significantly decreased the expression of morphine (7.5 mg/kg)-induced place preference. The attenuation of already established morphine-induced place preference on the test day by L-arginine was inhibited by L-NAME. The results indicate that NO may be involved in the acquisition and expression of morphine-induced place preference. 相似文献

NMDA receptors of dorsal hippocampus are involved in the acquisition, but not in the expression of morphine-induced place preference 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In the present study, involvement of the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors of the CA1 region of dorsal hippocampus (intra-CA1) in the acquisition or expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference in rats was studied. Male Wistar rats were used in these experiments. NMDA-receptor agonist (NMDA) and antagonist (MK-801) were injected into the CA1 region of the dorsal hippocampus (intra-CA1) and morphine was injected subcutaneously. An unbiased conditioned place preference paradigm was used to study the effect of these agents. In the first set of experiments, the drugs were used during the development of conditioned place preference by morphine or they were used alone in order to see if they induce conditioned place preference or conditioned place aversion. Our data showed that subcutaneous (s.c.) injection of morphine sulphate (2.5-10 mg/kg) induced conditioned place preference in rat. NMDA (0.1-1 microg/rat) or MK-801 (1-4 microg/rat) did not induce conditioned place preference or conditioned place aversion. Intra-CA1 administration of different doses of NMDA (0.1-1 microg/rat) increased, while MK-801 (1-4 microg/rat) decreased morphine-induced place preference. MK-801 reversed the effect of NMDA on morphine response. In the second set of experiments, when the drugs were used before testing on Day 5, in order to test their effects on the expression of morphine (7.5 mg/kg)-induced place preference, intra-CA1 administration of NMDA or MK-801 did not alter the morphine response. None of the drugs influenced locomotion. It is concluded that NMDA receptor of the CA1 region of hippocampus are involved in the acquisition but not expression of morphine-induced place preference. 相似文献

Theophylline inhibits tolerance and sensitization induced by morphine: a conditioned place preference paradigm study in female mice 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The effect of theophylline on reward properties of morphine was examined in the present study. A biased conditioned place preference paradigm was used to study the effects of theophylline on the development of conditioned place preference by morphine in sensitized and tolerant female mice. Subcutaneous injection of morphine (0.5-10 mg/kg) induced conditioned place preference in mice, while intraperitoneal administration of theophylline (2.5-100 mg/kg) did not induce conditioned place preference or conditioned place aversion. Theophylline (2.5-100 mg/kg) in combination with morphine (5 mg/kg), during conditioning sessions, decreased the acquisition of morphine conditioned place preference dose independently. Administration of theophylline (2.5-100 mg/kg) before testing also caused a significant reduction of the expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference in a dose-independent manner. Administration of morphine (12.5, 25 or 50 mg/kg) daily, for 3 days, produced tolerance to conditioned place preference induced by the drug (5 mg/kg). Administration of theophylline (2.5 and 10 mg/kg) 1 h before morphine (12.5, 25 mg/kg), during development of tolerance, abolished morphine tolerance. A higher dose of theophylline (100 mg/kg), however, did not alter morphine tolerance. In addition, theophylline (2.5, 10 and 100 mg/kg) failed to reduce tolerance to a higher dose of morphine (50 mg/kg). Daily administration of morphine (5 mg/kg) for 3 days followed by a 5-day interval caused sensitization to morphine place conditioning. When theophylline was administered (2.5, 10 and 100 mg/kg) 1 h before morphine (5 mg/kg), during development of sensitization, inhibition of morphine-induced sensitization was demonstrated. The effect of theophylline was dose independent. It is concluded that while theophylline has no effect by itself, it reduced both the acquisition and expression of morphine conditioned place preference. In addition, theophylline reduced the acquisition of morphine conditioned place preference in morphine-sensitized and morphine-tolerant mice. 相似文献

Effects of beta-funaltrexamine and naloxonazine on single-trial morphine-conditioned place preference and locomotor activity 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Bardo MT Gehrke BJ Shortridge BE Rauhut AS 《Pharmacology, biochemistry, and behavior》2003,74(3):617-622
The current study assessed the ability of the selective irreversible mu-opioid receptor antagonists beta-funaltrexamine (betaFNA) and naloxonazine (NALZ) to alter the locomotor and rewarding effects of a single intravenous injection of morphine using the conditioned place preference (CPP) model. In the first experiment, rats were conditioned with a single injection of morphine (10 mg/kg iv) paired with one compartment of a CPP apparatus and then were tested for CPP at either 1 or 7 days after conditioning. Rats showed hypoactivity following acute morphine on the conditioning trial and showed CPP when tested either 1 or 7 days later. In the next experiments, rats were pretreated with betaFNA (20 mg/kg sc, 20 h before conditioning), NALZ (15 or 30 mg/kg sc, 24 h before conditioning) or saline and then were conditioned with a single injection of morphine (10 mg/kg iv) or saline. Pretreatment with NALZ alone, but not betaFNA, significantly decreased locomotor activity; neither antagonist alone produced a significant shift in preference for either compartment of the CPP apparatus. Pretreatment with either betaFNA or NALZ blocked completely morphine-induced hypoactivity, but neither antagonist had a significant effect on morphine CPP. These results indicate that mu-opioid receptors are more critically involved in acute morphine-induced hypoactivity than in acute morphine reward. 相似文献

Effects of the novel NMDA/glycine receptor antagonist, L-701,324, on morphine- and cocaine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) were examined in male Wistar rats. After determination of initial preference, animals were conditioned with morphine (5 mg/kg, i.p.) or cocaine (5 mg/kg, i.p.) for 3 conditioning trials, alone or in combination of these drugs with L-701,324 (2.5 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg, p.o.). L-701,324 prevented acquisition of the place preference produced by morphine and cocaine. Administration of L-701,324 on the test day attenuated the expression of morphine-induced CPP, whereas it had no effect on cocaine CPP. When L-701,324 was given alone it did not affect dependent variables (i.e. time spent in non-preferred compartment) suggesting that L-701,324 did not display any reinforcing properties by itself. Our current data suggest that glycine site on the NMDA receptor complex may be involved in the mediation of the rewarding effects of drugs of abuse. 相似文献

In the present study, the effects of bilateral intrahippocampal CA1 injections of dopamine receptor agonists and antagonists on the acquisition and expression of morphine-induced place preference were examined in male Wistar rats. Subcutaneous administration of different doses of morphine sulphate (0.5-10 mg/kg) produced a conditioned place preference (CPP) dose-dependently. Using a 3-day schedule of conditioning, it was found that dopamine D1 receptor agonist, SKF 38393 (0.01-1 microg/rat), dopamine D1 receptor antagonist, SCH 23390 (0.25-1 microg/rat), dopamine D(2/3) receptor agonist, quinpirole (0.3-3 microg/rat) or dopamine D2 receptor antagonist, sulpiride (0.04-5 microg/rat) did not produce significant place preference. The administration of SKF 38393 (1 microg/rat) significantly potentiated the acquisition of morphine (0.5 and 2.5 mg/kg)-induced place preference. This potentiation was reversed by SCH 23390 (1 microg/rat) pretreatment. Quinpirole injection (0.3 microg/rat) induced CPP in combination with the lower doses of morphine but decreased the response of the higher doses of morphine. These responses of quinpirole were reversed by sulpiride (5 microg/rat) pretreatment. SCH 23390 or sulpiride reduced the acquisition of morphine (7.5 mg/kg)-induced place preference. The administration of sulpiride, but not other drugs, during acquisition showed an increase in the locomotor activity on the testing days. SKF 38393, SCH 23390 or sulpiride, but not quinpirole when used before testing, reduced the expression of morphine-induced place preference. Sulpiride, but not other drugs, increased locomotion when used before testing. It is concluded that dorsal hippocampal dopamine receptors may play an active role in morphine reward. 相似文献

The effects of systemic (s.c.) treatment with the κ-agonists U-50,488H and E-2078 (a stable dynorphin analog) on the morphine-induced place preference were examined in mice. Morphine (s.c.) caused a dose-related preference for the drug-associated place; the effects at doses of 3 and 5 mg/kg were significant. On the other hand, U-50,488H or E-2078 produced a dose-related conditioned place aversion. Both U-50,488H (1 mg/kg, s.c.) and E-2078 (0.1 mg/kg, s.c.) induced a slight, nonsignificant place aversion. Pretreatment with U-50,488H (1 mg/kg) abolished the morphine (3 mg/kg)-induced place preference. The morphine-induced place preference was also significantly decreased by pretreatment with E-2078 (0.1 mg/kg). The inhibitory effects of the κ-agonists were antagonized by the κ-antagonist nor-binaltorphimine (nor-BNI; 3 mg/kg, s.c.). In contrast, pretreatment with U-50,488H did not affect the place preference induced by the dopamine (DA) receptor agonist apomorphine (1 mg/kg, s.c.). In addition, morphine (3 mg/kg, s.c.) significantly increased the levels of the DA metabolites, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and homovanillic acid (HVA) in the limbic forebrain (nucleus accumbens and olfactory tubercle) but not in the striatum, implying that activation of the mesolimbic DA system may play an important role in the morphine-induced place preference in mice. Pretreatment with U-50,488H significantly reduced the morphine-induced elevation of DA metabolites in the limbic forebrain. These results suggest that κ-agonists suppress the morphine-induced place preference, and that activation of κ-opioid receptors could suppress the reinforcing effects of morphine which may be induced by enhanced DA transmission in the mesolimbic DA system. 相似文献

The effects of intra-basolateral amygdala (intra-BLA) injections of physostigmine, atropine, nicotine and/or mecamylamine on morphine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) in rats was investigated by using an unbiased 3-day schedule of place conditioning design. Animals that received 3 daily injections of morphine (0.5-10 mg/kg) subcutaneously (s.c.) or saline (1.0 ml/kg, s.c.) showed a significant preference for compartment paired with morphine. The maximum response was observed with 7.5 mg/kg of the opioid. Administration of the anticholinesterase drug, physostigmine (1, 3 and 5 microg/rat) with an ineffective dose of morphine (0.5 mg/kg) elicited a significant CPP. Injections of antimuscarinic receptor agent, atropine (1, 4 and 7 microg/rat) dose-dependently inhibited the morphine (7.5 mg/kg)-induced place preference. The injections of nicotine (0.75, 1 and 2 microg/rat) potentiated the morphine (0.5 mg/kg)-induced place preference, while the nicotinic receptor antagonist, mecamylamine (1, 3 and 6 microg/rat) dose-dependently inhibited the morphine (7.5 mg/kg)-induced place preference. Furthermore, administration of atropine (7 microg/rat) but not mecamylamine (6 microg/rat) reduced the response induced by different doses of physostigmine plus morphine. Moreover, mecamylamine (6 microg/rat) but not atropine (7 microg/rat) reduced the response induced by different doses of nicotine plus morphine. It is concluded that the muscarinic and nicotinic receptor mechanisms in the BLA may be involved in the acquisition of morphine-induced place preference. 相似文献

A growing body of evidence indicates the prominent actions of melatonin on the opioidergic system. Nevertheless, effect of melatonin on rewarding properties of morphine is still obscure. In particular, effect of melatonin on the expression of morphine reward is unknown. We evaluated the effect of exogenous administration of melatonin on the expression of morphine reward in mice using a conditioned place preference (CPP) paradigm. The conditioned place preference was induced by morphine (s.c., 3 mg/kg, once each day for 5 consecutive days) in mice. Our data showed that the intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration of melatonin (12.5-50 mg/kg) reversed the expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, the intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) administration of melatonin (0.125-0.5 mg/kg) also resulted in dose-dependent reversal effect on the expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference. We further investigated which of melatonin receptor subtypes within the central nervous system was mediating this reversal action in mice using luzindole (2-benzyl-N-acetyltryptamine, a non-selective antagonist for melatonin MT(1) and MT(2) receptors) and K185 {N-butanoyl-2-(5,6,7-trihydro-11-methoxybenzo[3,4]cyclohept[2,1-alpha]indol-13-yl)ethanamine, a selective antagonist for melatonin MT(2) receptor}. It was shown that the i.c.v. administration of either K185 (5, 20 mug) or luzindole (6.25, 12.5 mug) significantly antagonized the reversal effect of melatonin (50 mg/kg, i.p) on the expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference, while the i.c.v. administration of 20 mug of K185 or 12.5 mug of luzindole by itself did not alter the expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference. These results suggest that melatonin reverses the expression of morphine-induced rewarding effect, and this action is mediated by the activation of melatonin MT(2) receptor subtype within the central nervous system. 相似文献

In the present study, the effects of intra-central amygdala (CeA) injections of dopamine (DA) D2-like receptor agonist and antagonist on the acquisition and expression of morphine-induced place preference in male Wistar rats have been investigated. Subcutaneous administration of different doses of morphine sulphate (0.5-10 mg/kg) produced a dose-dependent conditioned place preference (CPP). Using a 3-day schedule of conditioning, it was found that the DA D2/D3 receptor agonist, quinpirole (0.3-3 microg/rat), or the DA D2 receptor antagonist, sulpiride (0.04-5 microg/rat), did not produce a significant place preference or place aversion. Intra-CeA administration of quinpirole (0.3 and 1 microg/rat) with an ineffective dose of morphine (0.5 mg/kg) elicited a significant CPP. On the other hand, quinpirole (0.3 microg/rat) injection into the CeA induced CPP in combination with the lower doses of morphine (0.5 and 2.5 mg/kg), but decreased the response of higher dose (7.5 mg/kg) of morphine. This response of quinpirole was attenuated by sulpiride (0.2 microg/rat). Sulpiride by itself (0.04-5 microg/rat) reduced the acquisition of morphine (7.5 mg/kg)-induced place preference. The administration of the higher dose of sulpiride (1 and 5 microg/rat) or the higher dose of quinpirole (3 microg/rat) during acquisition decreased the locomotor activity of the animals on the testing days. The injection of the low dose of quinpirole (0.3 microg/rat) on the test day reduced the expression of morphine-induced CPP, but the high dose of quinpirole (3 microg/rat) potentiated this expression. The administration of sulpiride (5 microg/rat) attenuated the quinpirole response. The injection of sulpiride (1 and 5 microg/rat) abolished the expression of morphine-induced CPP. It is concluded that the CeA DA D2-like receptors may play an active role in morphine reward. 相似文献
