Abstract:
:Intermittent exposure to the same stressor can lead to a gradual decline in physiological, neuroendocrine and behavioral stress responses (habituation). We investigated possible habituation of cardiac autonomic responsiveness and susceptibility to cardiac arrhythmias in male rats exposed to either intermittent social victory (VIC) or defeat (DEF) stress (10 exposures in each case). Electrocardiograms were recorded via radiotelemetry and the sympathovagal balance at the level of the heart was evaluated via time-domain measurements of heart rate variability, namely average R--R interval (average time interval between two consecutive heart beats, RR), the standard deviation of RR (SD(RR)) and the root-mean-square of successive R--R interval differences (r-MSSD). Values of these parameters were significantly lower in DEF as compared to VIC rats in the second part of the test period (from Minute 6 to Minute 15), suggesting a more pronounced sympathetic dominance in the former group of animals. Accordingly, the occurrence of the most frequent cardiac arrhythmias (ventricular and supraventricular premature beats) was higher in DEF rats. Habituation of cardiac autonomic responsivity was observed across repeated exposure to victory, both in terms of sympathovagal balance and susceptibility to cardiac tachyarrhythmias, whereas no habituation was found in repeatedly defeated animals. A possible explanation to this discrepancy could be the different degree of controllability characterizing the two social challenging situations.
