Within the ventral tegmental area (VTA), opioids increase DA neural activity by disinhibiting—or decreasing the tonic inhibition of—DA neurons. This disinhibition results in an increase in DA in the nucleus accumbens, which has been widely implicated in addiction. With recent developments suggesting rich VTA DA neuron heterogeneity, a key question is whether opioid exposure activates distinct DA neuron subsets. Here, we address (i) whether this activation is uniformly distributed across the midbrain or, alternatively, is enriched in specific anatomically restricted DA populations, and (ii) the specificity of projections of activated DA neurons, giving insight into the circuitry receiving DA following opioid administration. Using intersectional cFos-based labeling, we find that captured cells are biased towards the VTA over the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc), specifically towards the <em>Aldh1a1</em>-rich paranigral region. We also find that the projection pattern of labeled cells is focused on the dorsomedial shell of the nucleus accumbens compared to the ventromedial shell, core, lateral shell, or dorsal striatum. Projections are also observed in the prefrontal cortex, olfactory tubercle, and basolateral amygdala. Our findings of pathway-specific opioid-induced recruitment of DA neurons provide potential for selective targeting of DA sub-circuits to decrease the addictive nature of opioids without disrupting overall DA function.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":72067,"journal":{"name":"Addiction neuroscience","volume":"17 ","pages":"Article 100233"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145120847","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In our study, we sought to characterize the effects of aSI on maladaptive behavioral phenotypes such as anxiety-like behavior, ethanol consumption, and aversion-resistant ethanol-intake as measured by the consumption of ethanol (20 %, v/v) adulterated with the bitterant quinine (0, 3, 10, 30, 100 mg/l). We further used <em>ex vivo</em> fast scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV) to probe dopamine release kinetics in the VP in response to aSI following both tonic and phasic stimulation. Finally, we measured the impact of an acute application of ethanol (80 mM, 150 mM) on dopamine release kinetics in the VP following both tonic and phasic stimulation. Our results indicated that aSI potentiates anxiety-like behavior and ethanol preference, but does not promote aversion-resistant ethanol drinking. While pallidal dopamine release kinetics were insensitive to aSI at baseline, ethanol perfused over slices containing the VP modulated <em>tonic</em> dopamine release in all rats, albeit at a lower magnitude in aSI rats. Furthermore, ethanol modulated <em>phasic</em> dopamine release in a stress-dependent and sex-specific manner.

We examined SCN transcriptomic changes in genetically diverse heterogeneous stock rats across different opioid physiological and behavioral states (naïve, oxycodone intoxication, acute withdrawal, and prolonged abstinence), alongside behavioral assessments. In females, intoxication and withdrawal altered pathways related to neurotransmission, circadian rhythms, and inflammation, while in males, changes involved immune regulation and DNA damage. During abstinence, females showed enrichment in stress-related pathways, particularly those involved in energy metabolism and neurotransmitter function, whereas males exhibited enrichment in pathways related to cellular detoxification and oxidative stress, suggesting lasting, sex-specific effects during withdrawal and abstinence. The highest proportion of sex-specific rhythmic differentially expressed genes were identified during abstinence compared to other states. Co-expression network analysis identified a module linked to synaptic signaling and another linked to ciliary function, which were positively and negatively associated with intoxication, respectively. The genes in the synaptic signaling module were positively correlated with addiction-related behaviors during abstinence, while the genes in the ciliary module inversely correlated with these behaviors during intoxication, linking opioid-induced alterations in the SCN to addiction-like phenotypes.

Importantly, these differences were particularly pronounced in BD women, who showed enhanced activation in the left inferior frontal cortex (LIFC) compared to BD men. LIFC activation correlated with binge drinking and drinking to cope with negative emotions only in BD women. Moreover, greater LIFC activation mediated the impact of coping motives on binge drinking in BD women, suggesting that coping-related negative affect may exacerbate their alcohol misuse.
