The cholinergic receptor muscarinic 3 (CHRM3) rs2165870 and tachykinin receptor 1 (TACR1) rs3755468 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been reported to be involved in PONV. We evaluated the impact of these SNPs on PONV in a Japanese population who underwent orthognathic surgery under PONV prophylaxis with the 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) receptor 3A receptor antagonist ondansetron. In 121 patients, dexamethasone was administered after intubation, followed by ondansetron before the end of surgery. An 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS) score for PONV (0-2 h or 2-24 h after anesthesia endpoint [a.a.e.]) and the presence or absence of metoclopramide administration (0-2 h or 2-24 h a.a.e.) were evaluated. If patients complained of PONV and had an NRS score ≥ 4, then metoclopramide was administered intravenously for PONV rescue. Patients were genotyped for the CHRM3 rs2165870 and TACR1 rs3755468 SNPs, followed by the statistical analysis of associations between these SNPs and phenotypes. AA carriers of CHRM3 rs2165870 received metoclopramide at a significantly higher rate (P = 2.48 × 10<sup>- 2</sup>) and had higher NRS scores (P = 3.40 × 10<sup>- 2</sup>) under a diminished influence of ondansetron than GG and GA carriers. CC carriers of TACR1 rs3755468 had significantly higher NRS scores under the sufficient influence of ondansetron than CT and TT carriers (P = 9.97 × 10<sup>- 3</sup>). Numeric rating scale scores showed a significant interaction between \"time\" (the effect of ondansetron) and \"genotype\" (two-way analysis of variance, P = 4.39 × 10<sup>- 2</sup>). AA carriers of CHRM3 rs2165870 were significantly associated with \"time\" (P = 3.26 × 10<sup>- 2</sup>), and CC carriers of TACR1 rs3755468 were not (P > 0.05). These results suggest that ondansetron significantly affects nausea that is associated with CHRM3, whereas it has a minimal effect on nausea that is associated with TACR1. This indicates that nausea that is associated with CHRM3 is qualitatively different from nausea that is associated with TACR1. Ondansetron mainly exerts its effects outside the blood-brain barrier, which may lead to differential impacts on nausea that is associated with CHRM3 and TACR1. These findings may provide future directions for tailor-made preventive measures against PONV that depend on high-risk genotypes of the CHRM3 rs2165870 and TACR1 rs3755468 SNPs.</p>","PeriodicalId":18851,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Brain","volume":"18 1","pages":"64"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12278487/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144682799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The striatal activity is critical for adjusting initially disorganized gait to efficient rhythmic locomotion during forward running training, as well as for increasing the stride width during forward locomotion. The inputs from the motor cortex to striatum are important for the rhythmic locomotion, but not for changes of stride length and width during forward running training.

Long-term social isolation induces a variety of social and affective deficits and has been used as a stress model in animal studies, with increasing insight into its underlying neural mechanisms. In contrast, short-term social isolation is known to elicit prosocial behaviors such as rebound social interactions, yet the neural basis of these adaptive responses remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated the effects of short-term social isolation on social and appetitive behaviors and examined the role of the insular cortex in modulating social preference in male mice. Three days of social isolation increased social contacts in a three-chamber social preference test. Additionally, socially isolated mice showed higher food intake in the home cage compared with the group-housed mice, and those exhibiting a higher social preference following social isolation also tended to consume more food during the isolation, postulating a potential correlation of social craving and food craving. Furthermore, chemogenetic suppression of the insular cortex during social isolation reduced rebound social interactions. We propose that the insular cortex modulates social valence by serving as an alert center for social deprivation.

Previous studies demonstrate pronounced reduced density of calretinin (CR)-expressing GABAergic interneurons in both ASD patients and animal models. The object of the current study was to determine the role of CR in ASD-relevant behavioral aberrations. Herein, the mRNA and protein levels of CR in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of mouse model of ASD based on prenatal exposure to valproic acid (VPA) were determined by qRT-PCR and Western blot analysis, respectively. Moreover, the behavioral abnormalities in naive mice with CR deficiency mediated by recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) were evaluated in a comprehensive testing battery including social interaction, marble burying, self-grooming, open-field, elevated plus maze and novel object recognition tests. Furthermore, the action potential changes caused by CR deficiency were examined in neurons within the PFC in naive mouse. The results show that the mRNA and protein levels of PFC CR of VPA-induced mouse ASD model were reduced. Concomitantly, mice with CR knockdown displayed ASD-like behavioral aberrations, such as social impairments, elevated stereotypes, anxiety and memory defects. Intriguingly, patch-clamp recordings revealed that CR knockdown provoked decreased neuronal excitability by increasing action potential discharge frequencies together with decreased action potential threshold and rheobase.
