Synergistic interaction between clonidine and ACPA on the modulation of anxiety-like behaviors in non-acute restraint stress and acute restraint stress conditions.
The present research examined the possible role of α-2 adrenergic receptor drugs (clonidine, selective α-2 adrenergic receptor agonist, and yohimbine, competitive α-2 adrenoreceptor antagonist,) on the effect of arachidonylcyclopropylamide (ACPA), a cannabinoid CB1 receptor agonist, in non-acute restraint stress (NARS) and acute restraint stress (ARS) mice. The animals were unilaterally implanted with a cannula in the left lateral ventricle. ARS was carried out by movement restraint at a period of 4 h. An elevated plus-maze (EPM) apparatus was used to evaluate anxiety-like behaviors. The results indicated that induction of ARS for 4 h induced anxiogenic-like behavior due to the reduction of %OAT (the percentage of time spent in the open arms) in male mice. Additionally, ARS caused neuronal degeneration in the prefrontal cortex. On the other hand, alone intracerebroventricularly (i.c.v.) infusions of ACPA (0.5 µg/mouse) and clonidine (0.5 µg/mouse) increased %OAT, indicating an anxiolytic-like response in the NARS and ARS mice. In contrast, alone i.c.v. infusions of yohimbine (0.5 µg/mouse) decreased %OAT and %OAE (the percentage of entries to the open arms), proposing an anxiogenic-like effect in the NARS and ARS mice. When the subthreshold dose of ACPA and different doses of clonidine were co-injected, ACPA potentiated the anxiolytic-like behavior produced by clonidine in the ARS mice. On the other hand, when the ineffective dosage of ACPA and different dosages of yohimbine were co-infused, ACPA reversed the anxiogenic-like effect induced by yohimbine in the NARS and ARS mice. Moreover, the results revealed a synergistic effect between ACPA and clonidine upon induction of anxiolytic-like behaviors. It can be concluded that the interaction between clonidine and ACPA modulates the anxiety-like behaviors induced by stress in male mice.
期刊介绍:
An international multidisciplinary journal devoted to fundamental research in the brain sciences.
Brain Research publishes papers reporting interdisciplinary investigations of nervous system structure and function that are of general interest to the international community of neuroscientists. As is evident from the journals name, its scope is broad, ranging from cellular and molecular studies through systems neuroscience, cognition and disease. Invited reviews are also published; suggestions for and inquiries about potential reviews are welcomed.
With the appearance of the final issue of the 2011 subscription, Vol. 67/1-2 (24 June 2011), Brain Research Reviews has ceased publication as a distinct journal separate from Brain Research. Review articles accepted for Brain Research are now published in that journal.
