Understanding stress impact considering critical variables, such as age, sex, and individual differences, is of utmost importance for developing effective intervention strategies. Methods Stress effects (daily footshocks for ten days) during adolescence (postnatal day, PND31–40) and adulthood (PND65–74) were investigated on behavioral outcomes and parvalbumin (PV)-expressing GABAergic interneurons and their associated perineuronal nets (PNNs) in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of male and female mice five weeks post-stress. Results In adulthood, adolescent stress induced behavioral alterations in male mice, including anxiety-like behaviors, social deficits, cognitive impairments, and altered dopamine system responsivity. Applying integrated behavioral z-score analysis, we identified sex-specific differences in response to adolescent stress, with males displaying greater vulnerability than females. Furthermore, adolescent-stressed male mice showed a decrease PV+ and PNN+ cell numbers and PV+/PNN+ colocalization, while in females, adolescent stress reduced prefrontal PV+/PNN+ colocalization in the PFC. Further analysis identified distinct behavioral clusters, with certain females demonstrating resilience to adolescent stress-induced deficits in sociability and PV+ cell number. Adult stress in male and female mice did not cause long-lasting changes in behavior and PV+ and PNN+ cell number.

Because people with methamphetamine use disorder (MUD) exhibit cognitive deficits, we evaluated mGlu5 in people with MUD and controls and tested its association with cognitive performance.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Positron emission tomography was performed to measure the total VT of [18F]FPEB, a radiotracer for mGlu5, in brains of participants with MUD (abstinent from methamphetamine for at least 2 weeks, N = 14) and a control group (N = 14). Drug use history questionnaires and tests of verbal learning, spatial working memory, and executive function were administered. Associations of VT with methamphetamine use, tobacco use, and cognitive performance were tested.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>MUD participants did not differ from controls in global or regional VT, and measures of methamphetamine use were not correlated with VT. VT was significantly higher globally in nonsmoking vs smoking participants (main effect, P = .0041). MUD participants showed nonsignificant weakness on the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Task and the Stroop test vs controls (P = .08 and P = .13, respectively) with moderate to large effect sizes, and significantly underperformed controls on the Spatial Capacity Delayed Response Test (P = .015). Across groups, Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Task performance correlated with VT in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and superior frontal gyrus.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Abstinent MUD patients show no evidence of mGlu5 downregulation in brain, but association of VT in dorsolateral prefrontal cortex with verbal learning suggests that medications that target mGlu5 may improve cognitive performance.</p>","PeriodicalId":14134,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11348008/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141909857","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
