Postnatal administration of two peptide solutions affects passive avoidance behaviour of young rats.
The effects of two subcutaneously injected peptide solutions CERE (100 mg/kg b. wt.) and E021 (1 mg/kg b. wt.) and of 0.9% saline on passive avoidance reaction (PAR) of young rats were examined. Animals were trained and tested in a step-through avoidance task using a footshock of 0.5 mA or 1 mA. Step-through latencies were observed up to 200 s and from these data the percentage of good learners (latency = 200 s) and bad learners (latency < 200 s) was calculated. Two experimental schedules were performed (n > 6). In Expt. 1 rat pups were chronically treated with the substances within the first 7 days after birth. In Expt. 2 the 7 days of treatment started in the 4th postnatal week. In both experiments PAR acquisition was trained on the 28th day after birth (learning trial), PAR extinction testing started on the 29th day (retention trials). After applying a 0.5-mA footshock, rat pups treated with E021 within the first 7 days of life (Expt. 1) displayed significantly slower PAR extinction when compared to saline- and CERE-treated rats. In the 1 mA groups, significant differences in step-through latencies were measured between 0.9% saline- and E021-pretreated animals on retention day 11 and between saline and CERE on retention days 9 and 13. E021-treated rats of Expt. 2, receiving a footshock intensity of 0.5 mA, showed significant lower step-through latencies when compared to E021-treated rats of Expt. 1. In Expt. 2 no significant differences between treatment groups were observed.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The effects of rat atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP 1-28) on passive avoidance behaviour were tested following its administration into the lateral brain ventricle in rats. Different doses of ANP 1-28 were administered immediately after the learning trial of passive avoidance behaviour and the effects on the consolidation of learning were tested 24 h later. ANP 1-28, in doses in the range 50-2000 ng/rat, caused a dose-dependent increase in passive avoidance latency. Selected doses (100, 200 and 500 ng/animal) were given 30 min before the learning trial. These doses lengthened the passive avoidance latency in a dose-dependent manner. When the peptide was given 30 min before the retention trial, there was no significant alteration in passive avoidance response. The data suggest that ANP 1-28 is able to facilitate the learning and consolidation of fear-motivated passive avoidance behaviour. 相似文献

The effects of intracerebroventricular administration of two different cholecystokinin antisera were tested on the latency of passive avoidance behaviour of rats following 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h retention. In a 1:2 dilution, both CCK antisera caused a shorter latency than in the controls following 6, 12, 24 and 48 h retentions. These data suggest that the endogenous CCK of the brain might be a physiologic modulator of memory processes. 相似文献

Antinociceptive profile of intracerebroventricular salmon calcitonin and calcitonin gene-related peptide in the mouse formalin test 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effects of intracerebroventricularly administered salmon calcitonin (sCT) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) on the behavioural response of the mouse to formalin injections were investigated. Mice lick their hindpaws for 5 min after formalin injections, then stop, and resume intensive licking for another 10 min beginning 20 min after the injections. Both peptides reduced the nociceptive response in the two phases of the test (0-5 and 20-30 min after formalin injection). Antinociceptive A50 values were 3.3 micrograms/mouse and 4.7 micrograms/mouse respectively in the first phase for sCT and CGRP. The effects of sCT and CGRP appeared to be dose-dependent in the first phase. Since in the second phase sCT appeared more effective and CGRP gave a bell-shaped curve, possible differences in the mechanisms of action of the peptides in the two response intervals of the test are suggested. 相似文献

We examined the effects of stimulation on either postnatal days 1–7 or 21–27 on passive avoidance reaction (PAR) of young rats. Animals received tactile or visual stimulation for 10 min each day, and were trained on postnatal day 28 in a step-through apparatus using a footshock of 0.75 mA for 2 s. Retention was tested on five consecutive days beginning on day 29. Memory retention was measured for each rat 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 h after the acquisition trial. Step-through latencies to enter the dark compartment, time spent in the illuminated compartment and number of crossings of the light beam were recorded up to 200 s. Rats that received tactile or visual stimulation during the 4th postnatal week displayed significantly lower PAR latencies, a shorter stay in the illuminated compartment and a higher number of crossings of the light beam compared to rats treated during the 1st postnatal week. The untreated control group showed a rapid decline of PAR latencies. All experimental groups remained in the illuminated compartment longer and showed PAR latencies well above those of the control group. The differences became more pronounced when visual stimulation in the first postnatal week was used. The number of crossings of the light beam was significantly reduced by the treatment, with the exception of the experimental group stimulated visually in the 4th week. The behavioural changes induced by tactile or visual stimulation have a long-lasting effect in coping with a stressful task. 相似文献

Two-day-old male rats received a subcutaneous injection of arginine-vasopressin (AVP) antiserum and avoidance behaviour was studied 3 months later. Rats treated with the antiserum showed a clear retention deficit in a one-trial learning, step-through passive avoidance situation. Anti-AVP treatment also induced an impairment on the acquisition of a two-way active avoidance task. Systolic blood pressure was lower than normal in these animals. The results obtained appear to be indicative of the high vulnerability of the developing nervous system, and are discussed in the context of the different hypothesis on the role of central or peripheral mechanisms in the behavioural effects of AVP. Although no definite conclusions may be drawn in this regard, the present data strongly suggest that neonatal administration of AVP antiserum exerts long-lasting effects upon the functionality of several physiological mechanisms related to the behavioural adaptation of the organism. 相似文献

Effects of calcitonin gene-related peptide and vasoactive intestinal peptide on nicotine-induced sweating in man 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effects of two neuropeptides, calcitonin gene-related peptide and vasoactive intestinal peptide on nicotine-induced sweating in human skin were investigated. Intradermal injection of nicotine induced local sweating and each peptide, administered together with nicotine, inhibited these responses in a concentration-dependent manner. The concentration of calcitonin gene-related peptide for threshold and half-maximum inhibition were about 10(-10) M and 10(-8) M, respectively, while those of vasoactive intestinal peptide were approximately 10(-9) M and 10(-7) M, respectively. The results suggest that calcitonin gene-related peptide and vasoactive intestinal peptide have inhibitory effects on the nicotinic action, and release of endogenous calcitonin gene-related peptide and/or vasoactive intestinal peptide may influence sweating in human skin under physiological conditions in vivo. 相似文献

The effects of intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) administration of ultra low doses (ULDs) of histamine, clobenpropit and pyrilamine are studied on morphine state-dependent (STD) memory in mice. Although pre-test administration of different doses of histamine and clobenpropit showed no effect on impairment of memory induced by pre-training morphine, when the above drugs were co-administered with morphine, they inhibited the restoration of memory by morphine. These effects were opposite to microgram doses of the same drugs. 相似文献

The effects of two different doses of cholecystokinin octapeptide sulphate ester and its unsulphated form on the passive avoidance behaviour were studied following intraperitoneal administration to rats. Administered immediately after the learning trial in a dose of 400 nmole/kg, both peptides resulted in significantly increased passive avoidance latencies as compared to the control. There were no effects on the latency of passive avoidance behaviour when the animals were treated 1 h before the learning trial. When the cholecystokinin octapeptides were given 23 h after the learning trial, the latency tended to be increased, but this difference was not statistically significant. 相似文献

Effects of intracerebroventricularly administered somatostatin on passive avoidance, shuttle-box behaviour and open-field activity in rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Behavioural effects of somatostatin after intracerebroventricular (icv) administration have been investigated in male rats. In a passive avoidance learning test, somatostatin (1 microgram), given 30 min before the learning session, increased the avoidance latency at 24 h, but not at 48 h, after the injection, when compared to a 10 micrograms treated group. However, compared to a saline treated group, somatostatin (0.01, 0.1, 1, or 10 micrograms) did not significantly influence the avoidance latency. In a shuttle box experiment somatostatin (1 microgram) facilitated the learning process. In an open-field behaviour test, immediately after the 24 h passive avoidance test, 10 micrograms of the peptide decreased the rearing activity without influencing other open field behaviours, like locomotion, grooming and defecation. In a second open-field experiment somatostatin (1 microgram), given 30 min prior to the test, similarly as in the shuttle box learning experiment, increased the locomotion of the animals. These data suggest that somatostatin influences both the passive avoidance and shuttle box behaviours. The peptide-induced motor performance of the animals may play an important role in influencing the responses observed in these behavioural tests. 相似文献

To investigate the effects of nitric oxide (NO) on passive avoidance learning, L-NAME, D-NAME, and L-arginine were administered i.p. 30 min prior to learning trial; the effects of these substances were tested 24 h later using a passive avoidance apparatus in rats. To reveal the effect of NO on consolidation of acquired memory, L-NAME, D-NAME, and L-arginine were administered i.p. immediately after learning trials and animals were tested 24 h later. Effect of NO on retention was also investigated by injecting L-NAME, D-NAME, and L-arginine (same dosages) 30 min prior to 24 h testing (retrieval). L-NAME administered 30 min before and 24 h after learning trial significantly decreased the avoidance latency but there was no significant effect on consolidation. L-Arginine appeared to enhance the retention of acquired memory significantly, whereas D-NAME had no effect on any testing regime. The results suggest that NO may be involved in learning and retention of passive avoidance. 相似文献

The effects of intracerebroventricular administration of synthetic ovine corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF 1-41) have been investigated on the retention of passive avoidance behaviour, and on the dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin contents of the hypothalamus, mesencephalon, amygdala, septum and striatum, as well as on the plasma corticosterone levels of hypophysectomized and sham-operated rats. Treatment with CRF 1-41 20 min before the first retention test, 24 hours after the learning trial, significantly facilitated the passive avoidance behaviour of hypophysectomized animals in a dose-dependent manner. No effect was found in sham-operated rats. No significant effects of a wide dose range of intracerebroventricularly injected CRF on the monoamine contents of limbic brain structures were detected. However, the same doses of CRF 1-41 increased the plasma corticosterone level in sham-operated rats. The data suggest that the release of CRF from neurons in the limbic system does not alter the monoamine contents in this system, although this peptide facilitates the retention of the passive avoidance behaviour of hypophysectomized rats. 相似文献

The effects of the selective opiate kappa-receptor agonist tifluadom on memory were investigated in a passive avoidance task in 3 sets of experiments carried out with DBA/2 (DBA) mice both familiarized and unfamiliarized with the apparatus. In a first set of experiments, tifluadom (1.0 or 2.5, but not 0.5 mg/kg) administration immediately after training impaired retention performance of non-familiarized mice. This impairment was still evident when the drug was injected 15 or 30, but not 60 min after training. A second set of experiments was carried out with mice familiarized with the apparatus. Tifluadom was less effective in impairing memory in this group of animals, as compared with non-familiarized mice. Finally, in a third set of experiments, carried out with non-familiarized mice, a 15 min immobilization stress, which was ineffective when administered alone, enhanced the effects of tifluadom (1.0 mg/kg). The results are discussed in terms of attenuation of emotionality, resulting in impaired retention, following post-training opiate administration. 相似文献

Biphasic effects of orchidectomy on calcitonin gene-related peptide synthesis and release. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We hypothesize that the decline of male gonadal hormones may play a role in age-related decrease of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) synthesis and release. Orchidectomized rats were raised with or without testosterone replacement and CGRP levels in serum and some tissues as well as the perfusate from the isolated mesenteric arterial bed (MAB) were measured at 1, 2 and 4 months after orchidectomy. CGRP levels of serum and tissues, and CGRP release from MAB were significantly elevated after 1 month and decreased after 4 months in orchidectomized rats. The changes were restored by testosterone replacement. Our results indicate that the age-related decline of testosterone might contribute to the age-related decrease of CGRP synthesis and release. 相似文献

The effect of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) on prolactin (PRL) secretion was studied in female rats. Prepubertal female rats were submitted to the stressful stimuli of injection, blood puncture and thermal stress. Lactating rats were exposed to suckling stimulus. The effects of CGRP on PRL release were compared to those of calcitonin (CT). CGRP i.p. or s.c. prevents the increase in circulating PRL induced by stress. This effect was observed two hrs and even 24 hrs after CGRP administration. It was elicited at all doses tested, 2.5, 1.25 and 0.6 micrograms per animal. The time course of the actions of CGRP and CT are different. It is proposed that CGRP and CT act on different receptors. 相似文献

Direct androgenic regulation of calcitonin gene-related peptide expression in motoneurons of rats with mosaic androgen insensitivity. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The spinal nucleus of the bulbocavernosus (SNB) and its target muscles, bulbocavernosus and levator ani (BC/LA), form a sexually dimorphic neuromuscular circuit whose development and maintenance are androgen-dependent. The mechanisms whereby androgen regulates gene expression in the SNB of adult rats are largely unknown, although a retrograde influence from the BC/LA muscles has been suggested to underlie the suppression of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) expression observed in SNB motoneurons after systemic androgen treatment. A mosaic paradigm was used to determine the site of action of androgen in the regulation of CGRP expression in SNB motoneurons. As a consequence of random X chromosome inactivation, androgenized female rats heterozygous for the tfm androgen receptor (AR) mutation (XwtXtfm-mosaics) express a mosaic of androgen-sensitive and androgen-insensitive motoneurons in the SNB, whereas the BC/LA target musculature appears to be uniformly sensitive to androgens. In adult mosaics, testosterone administration resulted in a reduction in the proportion of androgen-sensitive cells expressing CGRP, whereas no such reduction was observed in the androgen-insensitive population, indicating that neuronal AR plays an essential role in the neuromuscular regulation of CGRP expression in these motoneurons. This provides the first in vivo demonstration of AR regulation of gene expression unambiguously localized to a neuronal population. 相似文献

Antinociceptive effects of calcitonin gene-related peptide injected into periaqueductal grey of rats with mononeuropathy 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Intra-periaqueductal grey (PAG) injection of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) induced dose-dependent increases in hindpaw withdrawal latency (HWL) to thermal and mechanical stimulation in rats with mononeuropathy. CGRP-induced increases in HWLs were blocked by intra-PAG injection of the CGRP antagonist CGRP8-37. The results demonstrated that CGRP and CGRP receptors in PAG play an important role in antinociception in rats with mononeuropathy. 相似文献
