Abstract:
:Intermittent cocaine administration induces sensitization (reverse tolerance) to its behavioral effects. The mechanism(s) mediating sensitization is not clear, however, previous research has implicated 5-HT(3) receptors in the expression of sensitization. The present experiment evaluated the ability of the 5-HT(3) receptor antagonist, ondansetron, administered during withdrawal from chronic intermittent cocaine administration, to block the expression of sensitization. Rats were pretreated for 14 days by daily subcutaneous injections of either 40 mg/kg cocaine or 0.9% saline. During the first 5 days of withdrawal from this pretreatment regimen, all rats received a daily subcutaneous injection of 0-1.0 mg/kg ondansetron. On days 7, 14 or 28 of withdrawal from the cocaine pretreatment, the rats received a 15.0-mg/kg cocaine challenge. Ambulatory behavior was automatically recorded for 60 min. Ondansetron had no significant effect on the subsequent behavioral response to cocaine in the saline control subjects. In contrast, daily injections of ondansetron blocked the expression of sensitization at all withdrawal times. We thus report that it is possible to permanently block the expression of sensitization once it has developed by administering a 5-HT(3) receptor antagonist.
