Semaglutide, tirzepatide, and retatrutide attenuate the interoceptive effects of alcohol in male and female rats.
Rationale: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) remains a major public health challenge, yet effective pharmacotherapies are limited. As such, there is growing interest in repurposing medications with novel mechanisms of action. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, originally developed for type 2 diabetes, have emerged as promising candidates due to effects on intake regulation and reward processing. GLP-1 receptor agonists, including semaglutide, reduce alcohol intake and relapse-like behaviors in rodent and non-human primate models, and a recent clinical trial found that semaglutide decreased alcohol craving and drinking in adults with AUD. Modulation of the subjective/interoceptive effects of alcohol may contribute to the therapeutic potential of GLP-1 receptor agonists.
Objectives: This study used operant drug discrimination in male and female rats to assess how acute and repeated semaglutide treatment affects alcohol's discriminative stimulus (interoceptive) effects. We hypothesized that GLP-1 receptor activation would disrupt alcohol's interoceptive effects. We also evaluated acute treatment with tirzepatide, a dual GLP-1/gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP) receptor agonist, and retatrutide, a triple GIP/GLP-1/glucagon receptor agonist, to determine whether broader receptor activity would differentially influence alcohol's subjective effects.
Results: Acute administration of semaglutide, tirzepatide, and retatrutide each attenuated alcohol discrimination, suggesting modulation of subjective alcohol effects. Repeated semaglutide maintained efficacy across the 15-day treatment period; alcohol discrimination returned to control levels three days after treatment cessation.
Conclusions: Building on prior work with GLP-1 receptor agonists, these results provide important context for interpreting clinical observations of reduced drinking behavior among individuals receiving this class of therapeutics.
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.
