Escalation of intravenous fentanyl self-administration and assessment of withdrawal behavior in male and female mice.
Rationale: The rise in overdose deaths from synthetic opioids, especially fentanyl, necessitates the development of preclinical models to study fentanyl use disorder (FUD). While there has been progress with rodent models, additional translationally relevant models are needed to examine excessive fentanyl intake and withdrawal signs.
Objective: The current study aimed to develop a translationally relevant preclinical mouse model of FUD by employing chronic intravenous fentanyl self-administration (IVSA).
Methods: The study performed intravenous self-administration (IVSA) of fentanyl in male and female C57BL/6J mice for 14 days. Mechanical pain sensitivity during withdrawal was assessed using the von Frey test. Anxiety-like behavior was evaluated via the open field test one week into abstinence, and drug seeking behavior after extended abstinence was assessed at four weeks abstinence.
Results: Both male and female mice demonstrated a significant escalation in fentanyl intake over the 14 days of self-administration, with significant front-loading observed in the final days of self-administration. Mice showed increased mechanical pain sensitivity at 36 and 48hours withdrawal from fentanyl. At 1-week abstinence from fentanyl, mice exhibited increased anxiety-like behavior compared to naive mice. Four weeks into abstinence from fentanyl, mice maintained lever-pressing behavior on the previous reward-associated active lever, with significantly higher active lever pressing compared to inactive lever pressing.
Conclusions: The study establishes a translationally relevant mouse model of IVSA of fentanyl, effectively encapsulating critical aspects of FUD, including escalation of drug intake, front-loading behavior, withdrawal signs, and drug-seeking behavior into extended abstinence. This model offers a robust basis for further exploration into behavioral and neurobiological mechanisms involved in fentanyl dependence and potential therapeutic strategies.
期刊介绍:
Official Journal of the European Behavioural Pharmacology Society (EBPS)
Psychopharmacology is an international journal that covers the broad topic of elucidating mechanisms by which drugs affect behavior. The scope of the journal encompasses the following fields:
Human Psychopharmacology: Experimental
This section includes manuscripts describing the effects of drugs on mood, behavior, cognition and physiology in humans. The journal encourages submissions that involve brain imaging, genetics, neuroendocrinology, and developmental topics. Usually manuscripts in this section describe studies conducted under controlled conditions, but occasionally descriptive or observational studies are also considered.
Human Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Translational
This section comprises studies addressing the broad intersection of drugs and psychiatric illness. This includes not only clinical trials and studies of drug usage and metabolism, drug surveillance, and pharmacoepidemiology, but also work utilizing the entire range of clinically relevant methodologies, including neuroimaging, pharmacogenetics, cognitive science, biomarkers, and others. Work directed toward the translation of preclinical to clinical knowledge is especially encouraged. The key feature of submissions to this section is that they involve a focus on clinical aspects.
Preclinical psychopharmacology: Behavioral and Neural
This section considers reports on the effects of compounds with defined chemical structures on any aspect of behavior, in particular when correlated with neurochemical effects, in species other than humans. Manuscripts containing neuroscientific techniques in combination with behavior are welcome. We encourage reports of studies that provide insight into the mechanisms of drug action, at the behavioral and molecular levels.
Preclinical Psychopharmacology: Translational
This section considers manuscripts that enhance the confidence in a central mechanism that could be of therapeutic value for psychiatric or neurological patients, using disease-relevant preclinical models and tests, or that report on preclinical manipulations and challenges that have the potential to be translated to the clinic. Studies aiming at the refinement of preclinical models based upon clinical findings (back-translation) will also be considered. The journal particularly encourages submissions that integrate measures of target tissue exposure, activity on the molecular target and/or modulation of the targeted biochemical pathways.
Preclinical Psychopharmacology: Molecular, Genetic and Epigenetic
This section focuses on the molecular and cellular actions of neuropharmacological agents / drugs, and the identification / validation of drug targets affecting the CNS in health and disease. We particularly encourage studies that provide insight into the mechanisms of drug action at the molecular level. Manuscripts containing evidence for genetic or epigenetic effects on neurochemistry or behavior are welcome.
