Biomedical Research) Brigitte L. Kieffer, Ph.D. Dr. Brigitte L. Kieffer is Professor at the Department of Psychiatry, McGill University and the Scientific Director of the Douglas Mental Health Research Center in Montréal since 2014. She also is Professor at the Université de Strasbourg France, where she developed most her past research activity (IGBMC, one of the leading European centres of biomedical research). Brigitte Kieffer has isolated the first gene encoding an opioid receptor, opening an entire research field towards understanding the molecular basis of opioid-controlled behaviors. Her genetic dissection of the opioid system has demonstrated that both analgesic and addictive actions of morphine are mediated by a single receptor protein, the mu receptor, and that this receptor is responsible for rewarding properties of most drugs of abuse. She also discovered that delta receptors improve anxiety and depressive-like responses. She elucidated the molecular mechanism by which an opioid receptor turns on, and finally achieved functional imaging of the delta opioid receptor in vivo. Her work has important implications the development of treatment of pain, drug abuse and emotional disorders. Relevant to this application, she recently has developed novel genetic tools to achieve functional imaging of opioid receptors in vivo and address circuitry aspects of opioid receptor function. She has received numerous awards, including the Lounsbery (French and US Academies of Science) and the Lamonica Award of Neurology (French Academy of Science). In march 2014, she also received the International L’OREAL-UNESCO Award for Women in Science (European Laureate). She became an EMBO (European Molecular Biology Organization) in 2009 and was elected as a member of the French Academy of Sciences in 2013. She has published more than 200 original papers in international peer-reviewed journals, written 45 invited reviews and book chapters, and has presented more than 200 Invited Conferences throughout the world since 1993. .

Escaping this vicious cycle requires maintenance of abstinence for extended periods of time and is a true challenge for addicted individuals. The emergence of depressive symptoms, including social withdrawal, is considered a main cause for relapse, but underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here we establish a mouse model of protracted abstinence to heroin, a major abused opiate, where both emotional and working memory deficits unfold. We show that delta and kappa opioid receptor (DOR and KOR, respectively) knockout mice develop either stronger or reduced emotional disruption during heroin abstinence, establishing DOR and KOR activities as protective and vulnerability factors, respectively, that regulate the severity of abstinence. Further, we found that chronic treatment with the antidepressant drug fluoxetine prevents emergence of low sociability, with no impact on the working memory deficit, implicating serotonergic mechanisms predominantly in emotional aspects of abstinence symptoms.

  • Role of Mu-Opioid Receptors in the Behavioral Effects of the Antidepressant
    Role of Mu-Opioid Receptors in the Behavioral Effects of the Antidepressant Tianeptine Jaena Han Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2021 © 2021 Jaena Han All Rights Reserved Abstract Role of Mu-Opioid Receptors in the Behavioral Effects of the Antidepressant Tianeptine Jaena Han For over half a century, the monoamine hypothesis has been the dominant theoretical framework guiding depression research and drug development. This hypothesis posits that depression arises from a deficiency in the monoaminergic neurotransmitters serotonin, norepinephrine, and possibly dopamine, and that antidepressants function by increasing extracellular availability of these monoamines in the brain, especially at the synaptic level. It is clear however, that the monoamine hypothesis cannot fully explain either the pathophysiology of depression nor the mechanisms of antidepressant action. Tianeptine is an atypical antidepressant used in Europe to treat patients who respond poorly to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). The recent discovery that tianeptine is a mu opioid receptor (MOR) and delta opioid receptor (DOR) agonist has provided a potential avenue for expanding our understanding of antidepressant treatment beyond the monoamine hypothesis. This dissertation aims to understand the neural circuits underlying tianeptine’s antidepressant effects. We first characterized the acute and chronic effects of tianeptine on depressive-like and other opioid-related behaviors in mice, and used genetic and pharmacological models to test whether these behavioral effects are mediated by MOR and/or DOR. We found that acute tianeptine administration produced an antidepressant-like reduction in immobility time in the forced swim test, as well as classic opioid-like effects including analgesia, hypophagia, hyperactivity, and conditioned place preference.

  • Mu-Opioid Receptor Knockout Prevents Changes in Delta-Opioid Receptor Trafficking Induced by Chronic Inflammatory Pain

To determine whether dOR trafficking induced by chronic inflammation was dependent on the activation of mOR, we investigated by immunogold cytochemistry the effects of intraplantar CFA injection on the plasma membrane density of dOR in mOR knockout (KO) mice. In untreated wild-type (WT) mice, only a small proportion of dOR was associated with neuronal plasma membranes in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. The CFA-induced inflammation produced a significantly higher ratio of plasma membrane to intracellular receptors, as well as a 75% increase in the membrane density of immunoreactive dOR, in dendrites of the ipsilateral dorsal horn as compared to untreated mice.
