Sensitization to stress: the enduring effects of prior stress on amphetamine-induced rotational behavior.
In rats with a unilateral 6-OHDA lesion of the substantia nigra exposure to footshock or immobilization stress produced a long-lasting enhancement in the rotational behavior evoked by a subsequent injection of amphetamine. However, the effect was dependent on the environmental context in which stress was applied. It is suggested that stress may induce enduring changes in brain and behavior simi...
متن کاملStress-induced sensitization and glucocorticoids. I. Sensitization of dopamine-dependent locomotor effects of amphetamine and morphine depends on stress-induced corticosterone secretion.
Repeated exposures to stress sensitize motor and addictive effects of drugs of abuse. Recently, it has been shown that stress-induced behavioral sensitization depends on the secretion of glucocorticoids. We investigated if sensitization of dopamine-dependent effects of psychostimulants and opioids was influenced by glucocorticoid. Sensitization of the dopaminergic response to drugs is considere...
متن کاملSusceptibility to sensitization. II. The influence of gonadal hormones on enduring changes in brain monoamines and behavior produced by the repeated administration of D-amphetamine or restraint stress.
Repeated amphetamine use produces an enduring sensitization of brain dopamine (DA) systems and behavior. Repeated exposure to stress can also produce sensitization, and amphetamine and stress may be interchangeable in this regard. There is, however, enormous individual variation in the susceptibility to sensitization by either stimulants or stress. The purpose of the present study was to determ...
متن کاملSex differences in the effects of gonadectomy on amphetamine-induced rotational behavior in rats.
The effects of gonadectomy on amphetamine-induced rotational behavior were studied in male and female rats. Different systemic doses were used to produce equivalent brain concentrations of the drug in each group, thereby controlling for sex differences in the metabolism of amphetamine. Ovariectomy of female rats significantly attenuated amphetamine-induced rotation, whereas castration of males ...
متن کاملEffects of N-acetylcysteine on amphetamine-induced sensitization in mice.
OBJECTIVE N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is beneficial in psychiatric conditions, including schizophrenia. Patients with schizophrenia exhibit mesolimbic dopamine hyperfunction consequent to an endogenous sensitization process. This sensitization can be modeled in rodents by repeated exposure to psychostimulants, provoking an enduring amplified response at subsequent exposure. The aim of this study was...
