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.

  • Animal Models of Pain: Progress and Challenges
    REVIEWS Animal models of pain: progress and challenges Jeffrey S. Mogil Abstract | Many are frustrated with the lack of translational progress in the pain field, in which huge gains in basic science knowledge obtained using animal models have not led to the development of many new clinically effective compounds. A careful re-examination of animal models of pain is therefore warranted. Pain researchers now have at their disposal a much wider range of mutant animals to study, assays that more closely resemble clinical pain states, and dependent measures beyond simple reflexive withdrawal. However, the complexity of the phenomenon of pain has made it difficult to assess the true value of these advances. In addition, pain studies are importantly affected by a wide range of modulatory factors, including sex, genotype and social communication, all of which must be taken into account when using an animal model. Therapeutic index Pain is both a highly important health problem and an The debate is complicated by the lack of published The ratio of the minimum dose increasingly mature topic of study.

  • 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.
