Abstract:
:Individual vulnerability to the reinforcing effects of drugs appear to be a crucial factor in the development of addiction in humans. In the rat, individuals at risk for psychostimulant self-administration (SA) may be identified from their locomotor reactivity to a stress situation such as exposure to a novel environment. Animals with higher locomotor responses to novelty (High Responders, HR) tend to acquire amphetamine SA, while animals with the lower responses (Low Responders, LR) do not. In this study, we examined whether activity of dopaminergic (DA) and serotoninergic (5-HT) systems differed between HR and LR animals. These transmitter systems are thought to be involved in the reinforcing effects of psychostimulants. Animals from both groups were sacrificed under basal conditions and after exposure for 30 or 120 min to a novel environment, and the DA, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC), 5-HT, and 5-hydroxyindolacetic acid (5-HIAA) contents were determined in the prefrontal cortex, nucleus accumbens and striatum. The HR rats displayed a specific neurochemical pattern: a higher DOPAC/DA ratio in the nucleus accumbens and striatum and a lower one in the prefrontal cortex. Furthermore, HR animals had lower overall 5-HT and 5-HIAA levels, corresponding to the mean of these compounds for the three structures studied over the three environmental conditions.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
