LASP1 in the nucleus accumbens modulates methamphetamine-induced conditioned place preference in mice
Methamphetamine (METH) is a highly addictive and widely abused drug that causes complex adaptive changes in the brain's reward system, such as the nucleus accumbens (NAc). LASP1 (LIM and SH 3 domain protein 1) as an actin-binding protein, regulates synaptic plasticity. However, the role and mechanism by which NAc LASP1 contributes to METH addiction remains unclear. In this study, adult male C57BL/6J mice underwent repeated METH exposure or METH-induced conditioned place preference (CPP). Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to determine LASP1 expression in the NAc. Furthermore, LASP1 knockdown or overexpression using adeno-associated virus (AAV) administration via stereotactic injection into the NAc was used to observe the corresponding effects on CPP. We found that repeated METH exposure and METH-induced CPP upregulated LASP1 expression in the NAc. LASP1 silencing in the NAc reversed METH-induced CPP and reduced PSD95, NR2A, and NR2B expression, whereas LASP1 overexpression in the NAc enhanced CPP acquisition, accompanied by increased PSD95, NR2A, and NR2B expression. Our findings demonstrate an important role of NAc LASP1 in modulating METH induced drug-seeking behavior and the underlying mechanism may be related to regulate the expression of synapse-associated proteins in the NAc. These results reveal a novel molecular regulator of the actions of METH on the NAc and provide a new strategy for treating METH addiction.
