Abstract:
:Cocaine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) was tested in adult offspring of Sprague-Dawley dams that had been injected subcutaneously with 40 mg/kg/3cc cocaine HCl (C40) daily from gestational days 8-20, pair-fed (PF) dams injected with saline, and nontreated control (LC) dams. C40 and PF dams gained significantly less weight than LC dams, although offspring body weights did not differ among the three prenatal treatment groups at birth or in adulthood. Significant place conditioning was obtained in LC and PF offspring when either 2.0 or 5.0 mg/kg of cocaine was paired with the designated place. In contrast, C40 offspring did not exhibit place conditioning at either training dose. Yet, all animals exposed to 5 mg/kg of cocaine during conditioning exhibited less activity during the test (when no cocaine was given) than controls given unpaired exposures to the apparatus and cocaine and C40 offspring did not differ from LC and PF offspring in this respect. Therefore, despite their lack of a conditioned place preference for cocaine, rats that had been exposed gestationally to cocaine nevertheless revealed an effect of cocaine during conditioning in one aspect of their test behavior. Possible explanations for the lack of cocaine-induced place preference in these animals include a learning deficit or a change in cocaine's effectiveness as a reward.
