Abstract:
:The present study assessed whether there are age-dependent differences in up-regulation of opiate receptors following chronic naloxone treatment in mature (3 months) and aged (27 months) male Wistar rats. Half of each age group were implanted subdermally with slow-release naloxone pellets for 10 days, and half were given sham surgery. Twenty-four hours after pellet removal, the rats were decapitated and various CNS areas including spinal cord, hindbrain, midbrain, diencephalon, hippocampus, striatum, olfactory tubercles/nucleus accumbens and prefrontal cortex were dissected and assayed for [3H]naloxone binding. The results indicated that aged rats had fewer opiate receptors in the spinal cord, midbrain, striatum, and olfactory tubercle/nucleus accumbens. Despite this age-related decline in opiate receptors, aged rats showed an up-regulation response similar to mature rats in all areas except the hippocampus of the left hemisphere, where they showed enhanced up-regulation relative to mature rats. The maintained plasticity of the opioid system contrasts with findings in other receptors systems where age-related impairments of antagonist-induced up-regulation have been reported.
