Orexin and orexinergic receptors, found in crucial brain areas involved in reward processing, may play a significant role in reward mechanisms and addiction. Studies have shown that physical exercise can be an effective non-pharmacological approach to controlling drug use but limited research explores its role as pre-conditioning to prevent dependency on narcotics. In this study, 48 male Wistar rats were assigned into six groups: exercise training+saline (EX-SA), exercise training+METH 1mg/kg (EX-METH1), exercise training + METH 2 mg/kg (EX-METH2), control+saline (CON), control+METH 1 mg/kg (CON-METH1), control+METH 2 mg/kg (CON-METH2). The pre-conditioning groups underwent forced wheel-running training (five days a week, at 65 % Vmax) for eight weeks. Following pre-conditioning with exercise training, the METH groups received intraperitoneal (IP) METH injections using the conditioned place preference (CPP) model. After the post-test, the animals were dissected, and hippocampal tissue was collected to measure orexin receptor1 (OXR1) expression levels. The results showed that long-term, moderate-intensity forced exercise pre-conditioning prevented METH-induced CPP. However, CPP was observed only in the EX-METH2 group, receiving a double dose of the drug. Molecular analysis also revealed a significant increase in OXR1 expression in the hippocampus following METH injections, while physical exercise caused suppression in OXR1 increment. Seemingly, prior exercise influences this pathway and effectively prevents conditioning to METH, probably through OXR1, indicating an adaptation in the mesolimbic reward pathway that helps protect against METH addiction.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20201,"journal":{"name":"Physiology & Behavior","volume":"295 ","pages":"Article 114892"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143743454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we investigated whether suppressing activity in rNST GABA neurons likewise affects behavioral taste responsivity. Using mice in which Cre was expressed under the control of the GAD65 promoter, we made bilateral rNST injections of a Cre-dependent AAV driving expression of the inhibitory DREADD, hM4Di. Subsequently, we assessed concentration-dependent licking responses to sucrose, quinine, and quinine mixed in 300 mM sucrose. Relative to intraperitoneal injections of saline, clozapine-N-oxide injections significantly increased licking to sucrose and decreased licking to quinine, regardless of whether it was presented alone or mixed in sucrose. Neither oromotor (inter-lick intervals) nor appetitive (number of trials) variables were affected. Consistent with these behavioral effects, the neuronal activity marker, Fos, was expressed in more NST, reticular formation, and parabrachial nucleus cells following clozapine-N-oxide injections. A final experiment compared effects of chemogenetic GABA inhibition on sucrose licking in food deprived versus fed mice. Inhibiting GABA neurons enhanced sucrose licking in both homeostatic states.

Social isolation has been shown to inhibit infanticidal behavior in some strain of mice. However, it is unclear if highly infanticidal male CB57BL6 mice can sensitize after repeated exposures to pups. The aim of this study was to determine whether repeated non-contact exposure to pups (to prevent immediate attack), with or without movement restriction and social isolation, can inhibit infanticidal behavior in male mice. We also investigated whether pup-directed aggression was associated with male-male aggression in a resident-intruder test. We found that repeated non-contact exposure to pups, in socially isolated males or in males with movement restraint, significantly reduced the incidence of aggression towards pups and increased the incidence of parental behavior. Social isolation or movement restraint alone had no significant effect. Finally, the frequency of pup-directed aggression was not associated with the levels of male-male aggression. This study shows that the experience of being exposed to newborns without contact with them can inhibit the highly driven impulsive-like attacking behavior towards pups and facilitate parental behavior. Our results suggest that aggressive behavior towards pups can be blocked in naïve male mice and that this behavior differs from male-male aggression.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20201,"journal":{"name":"Physiology & Behavior","volume":"295 ","pages":"Article 114885"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143693106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
