Enkephalinergic involvement in periaqueductal gray control of hypothalamically elicited predatory attack in the cat.

Abstract:

:The effects of central infusion of naloxone into the midbrain periaqueductal gray (PAG) upon predatory attack behavior in the cat were studied in 12 cats. Initially, quiet biting attack was elicited by electrical stimulation of sites within the lateral hypothalamus using monopolar electrodes. Then cannula-electrodes were implanted into sites within the PAG from which electrical stimulation facilitated or suppressed the attack response. Following identification of modulatory sites within the PAG, naloxone (1.0 micrograms/0.5 microliter) was microinjected into those sites and the effects upon hypothalamically elicited attack were assessed. At nine of twelve sites in the PAG where suppression was obtained, administration of naloxone served to block those effects. Similarly, at six of eight facilitatory sites within the PAG, naloxone also blocked the modulatory effects of PAG stimulation. However, vehicle (isotonic saline) alone did not alter the modulatory effects of PAG stimulation. Administration of DAME (250 ng/0.3 microliter) into PAG modulatory sites in four cats, two which facilitated and two that suppressed the attack response, reversed the effects of naloxone at these sites. These results demonstrate that opioid peptides within the PAG play a complex role in the expression of predatory attack behavior in the cat.
