Ibogaine, an alkaloid found in the root bark of the African shrub Tabernanthe iboga, has been claimed to interrupt opioid dependence in humans; in animals, it has been shown to inhibit morphine self-administration and to attenuate signs of morphine withdrawal. However, ibogaine has some neurotoxicity, and because of this, efficacious and safer congeners of ibogaine have been sought, 18-Methoxycoronaridine (18-MC), a novel iboga alkaloid congener, has been shown, in animals, to mimic the effects of ibogaine on morphine self-administration without producing any ibogaine-like neurotoxiticity. In the present study, 18-MC was shown to attenuate five of seven signs of morphine withdrawal in rats. The data suggest that 18-MC will ameliorate symptoms of opioid dependence in humans. 相似文献

The results of 3 experiments demonstrated that (a) 20 mg/kg ibogaine (but not 10 mg/kg), administered 30 min before morphine, attenuates the development of tolerance to the analgesic effect of morphine in rats; (b) this 20 mg/kg dose of ibogaine, if administered 5 hr before morphine, has no effect on tolerance development; and (c) a high dose of ibogaine (40 mg/kg), administered 24 hr before morphine, does not affect analgesic tolerance (despite reports that this dose of ibogaine, administered 1 day before morphine, modulates the neurochemical and reinforcing effect of the opiate, see P. Popik, R. T. Layer, & P. Skolnick, 1995). The findings are discussed in the context of suggestions that ibogaine be evaluated as a treatment for opiate dependence, and recent research indicating that ibogaine is an N-methyl-{D}-aspartate antagonist.

The conditioned place preference (CPP) induced by increasing doses (1.25-40 mg/kg) of cocaine or the specific dopamine uptake inhibitor GBR12783 was investigated in rats previously treated with cocaine (10 or 20 mg/kg), GBR12783 (10 mg/kg) or morphine (10 mg/kg) for 15 days. In solvent-pretreated rats, cocaine- and GBR12783-induced CPPs were biphasic, with the highest scores observed at 20 mg/kg. Prior exposure to GBR12783 sensitized the rats to the rewarding effects of low doses of either GBR12783 or cocaine. Pretreatment with cocaine 20 mg/kg, but not 10 mg/kg, sensitized the rats to its own rewarding effects. Furthermore, it was less efficient than GBR12783 in sensitizing the animals to the rewarding effects of both drugs. These data confirm the major role of dopamine uptake inhibition in the sensitization process. On the other hand, the magnitude of CPP induced by a high dose of both drugs (20 mg/kg) was decreased after pretreatment with either GBR12783 or cocaine, reaching the lower scores observed at 40 mg/kg. This decrease was unrelated to altered anxiety level but was associated with sensitization to stereotypies. Morphine pretreatment modified neither the CPP induced by high doses of cocaine or GBR12783 nor cocaine- or GBR12783-induced stereotypies. However, prior exposure to morphine sensitized the rats to the rewarding effects of cocaine (2.5 mg/kg) but not to those of GBR12783, suggesting that other mechanisms working in concert with dopamine may facilitate the rewarding effect of cocaine without affecting that of GBR12783. 相似文献

The present study examines the effect of prior morphine exposure on ibogaine antagonism of morphine-induced dopamine release. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were pretreated once a day for 2 days with morphine (20 mg/kg, i.p.) or saline and given a low dose of ibogaine (10 mg/kg, i.p.) or saline 5 hr after the last morphine or saline injection. Nineteen hours later, rats (awake and freely moving) were challenged with morphine (5 mg/kg, i.p.), and dopamine and its metabolites were monitored in the striatum and nucleus accumbens using in vivo microdialysis. Neither saline pretreatment, morphine pretreatment, nor ibogaine alone altered morphine-induced increases in extracellular dopamine and dopamine metabolites in either structure. However, when morphine pretreatment was combined with ibogaine, the morphine-induced elevation of dopamine, but not of metabolites, was completely blocked. These data suggest that prior morphine exposure enhances an opioid antagonist action of ibogaine on dopaminergic systems and that prior drug exposure may be a clinically significant determinant of ibogaine efficacy and/or potency in the treatment of opioid addiction. 相似文献

Adult male rats gestationally exposed to cocaine and nonexposed control offspring were examined for differences in operant responding for cocaine and sucrose reinforcement. Offspring were derived from dams that had received subcutaneous injections of 40 mg/kg/3cc cocaine hydrochloride daily on gestational Days 8–20 and nontreated control dams. Although no prenatal treatment differences were seen when the animals lever pressed for sucrose pellets on a progressive-ratio (PR) schedule, adult offspring prenatally exposed to cocaine were observed to exhibit an enhanced rate of cocaine intravenous self-administration on a fixed-ratio 5 (FR-5) schedule along with a marked decrease in break point on the PR reinforcement schedule. These results suggest that the reinforcing efficacy of cocaine may be reduced in animals with a prenatal history of cocaine exposure. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) 相似文献

Examined the effects of the D?/D? dopamine receptor antagonist α-flupenthixol in animal models designed to assess abuse-related behavioral effects of cocaine. Rhesus monkeys self-administered cocaine (17 or 33 μg/kg/injection, iv) during 1-hr daily sessions; periods of food-maintained behavior preceded and followed cocaine access. α-Flupenthixol (0.003–0.03 mg/kg, iv) increased self-administration rates, indicating an antagonism of cocaine's reinforcing effects but decreased rates of food-maintained responding. α-Flupenthixol (0.03 mg/kg) blocked the discriminative stimulus effects of cocaine (0.3 mg/kg) in squirrel monkeys but did not do so in rats trained to discriminate 10 mg/kg cocaine from saline. On the basis of available animal data and preliminary clinical trials, α-flupenthixol may warrant further study as a cocaine abuse pharmacotherapy.

Because self-administration and discrimination of a drug by animals correlate with its abuse and subjective effects in humans, interventions that modify the reinforcing and discriminative stimulus effects of the drug may be useful in the treatment of its abuse. The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of the putative dopamine autoreceptor antagonist (+)-AJ76 (AJ) or the atypical antipsychotic clozapine (CLZ) on the reinforcing and discriminative stimulus effects of cocaine in monkeys. One group of rhesus monkeys (n = 6) was allowed to self-administer cocaine (0.03 or 0.1 mg/kg/injection i.v. fixed-ratio 10, 2 hr/day). A second group of monkeys (n = 5) was trained to discriminate cocaine (0.2 or 0.4 mg/kg i.m., 10 min presession) from saline in a two lever, food-reinforced, drug discrimination paradigm. When behavior was stable, AJ or CLZ was administered i.m., 15 or 30 min presession. Intermediate doses of both compounds (1.0-3.0 mg/kg of AJ; 0.3-1.0 mg/kg of CLZ) increased cocaine self-administration, while responding remained evenly distributed over the session. A higher dose of CLZ decreased cocaine self-administration in an apparently nonspecific manner. When combined with saline, partial substitution for cocaine was seen in one of three monkeys with AJ and in none with CLZ. In combination with the training dose of cocaine in the discrimination experiment, both AJ and CLZ decreased drug appropriate responding by at least 50% in two of four monkeys, but had little or no effect in the other monkeys up to doses that completely suppressed lever pressing (6.4 mg/kg of AJ; 3.2 mg/kg of CLZ). Taken together, the present findings suggest that any blockade of the reinforcing and discriminative stimulus effects of cocaine by AJ and CLZ was, at best, partial. Furthermore, the stimulant effects of AJ observed in rats were not prominent in monkeys. 相似文献

Recently synthesized compounds which have long-term mu antagonist activity and short-term kappa agonist effects prevent self-administration of cocaine and morphine in rats. Cyclazocine, a compound synthesized in 1962 and studied in animals and man in the 1960's and in the early 1970's is a mu antagonist in rats and man and is a potent kappa agonist in both species. It also prevents self-administration of cocaine and morphine in rats. Although it produces unpleasant side effects in man, subjects become tolerant to these side effects but not to the antagonistic actions of the drug after prolonged administration. 相似文献

The present study was designed to evaluate the relationship between reinstatement of drug-seeking behaviour following long-term extinction of intravenous (i.v.) drug self-administration (an animal model for craving) and long-term behavioural sensitization. Rats were allowed to self-administer heroin (50 microg/kg per inj., 14 daily sessions), cocaine (500 microg/kg per inj., 10 daily sessions) or saline. Following a 3-week extinction period, reinstatement tests were performed to evaluate priming effects of amphetamine, cocaine and heroin on nonreinforced drug-seeking behaviour. In addition, the occurrence of long-term behavioural sensitization in rats with a history of heroin or cocaine self-administration was determined. Heroin-seeking behaviour was reinstated by heroin (0.25 mg/kg), amphetamine (1.0 mg/kg) and cocaine (10 mg/kg). In addition, animals with a history of heroin self-administration displayed locomotor sensitization to both heroin and amphetamine. Cocaine-seeking behaviour was reinstated by cocaine and amphetamine, but not by heroin. Interestingly, locomotor sensitization to amphetamine, but not heroin, was observed in animals with a history of cocaine self-administration. In other words, the induction of drug-seeking behaviour following a prolonged drug-free period was found to be associated with the expression of long-term behavioural sensitization. These data provide experimental evidence for a role of behavioural sensitization in the incentive motivation underlying drug-seeking behaviour. If drug hyperresponsiveness would indeed be a crucial factor in drug-induced craving in human addicts, pharmacological readjustment of the neuroadaptations underlying drug sensitization may prevent relapse to drug use long after detoxification. 相似文献

Rats were fixed with a chronically indwelling bipolar electrode for direct electrical stimulation of the medial forebrain bundle as it courses through the lateral hypothalamus. In Experiment 1, the rats were trained to self-stimulate (i.e., lever press) at each of 3 intensities of intracranial stimulation (ICS) for 10 min daily. In Experiment 2, only 2 intensities were offered. After stable daily rates of responding for each intensity of ICS were established, rats received either cocaine (5 or 10 mg/kg) or morphine (4 mg/kg) daily. Both cocaine and morphine significantly increased rates of responding. Naltrindole (NTI; 10 mg/kg) reduced rats' rates of responding under cocaine to those observed under vehicle. NTI had very little impact on morphine's effects. These data support the conclusion that selective 8 opioid receptor antagonists may be useful for treating cocaine addiction.

Drugs that decrease drug-maintained responding at doses that do not decrease other behaviors in animals may be suitable candidates for development as medications to treat drug abuse in humans. The present study examined whether this effect could be obtained with phentermine, a drug that has been reported to decrease cocaine intake in humans. Rhesus monkeys were trained under multiple fixed-ratio 30-response schedules of food and i.v. cocaine delivery. Phentermine was always given as a slow, i.v. infusion. Acute treatment with phentermine (0.3-10 mg/kg) decreased cocaine-maintained responding at doses that did not decrease, or decreased less, food-maintained responding for each of three unit doses of cocaine (10-100 microg/kg/injection). Subacute treatment with phentermine (3 or 5.6 mg/kg, daily) also decreased cocaine-maintained responding more than food-maintained responding. After subacute treatment was terminated, rates of cocaine-maintained responding generally recovered to levels comparable to those seen during untreated control sessions. Phentermine (0.3-3 mg/kg) did not generally increase responding associated with a very low (1 microg/kg/injection) unit dose of cocaine, suggesting that the decrease in cocaine-maintained responding at higher unit doses was not the result of a leftward shift in the cocaine unit dose-effect function. Phentermine (0.1-3 mg/kg) decreased responding maintained by 1-[2-[bis(4-fluorophenyl) methoxy]ethyl]-4-[3-phenylpropyl] piperazine (GBR 12909) (30 microg/kg/injection) at doses similar to those that decreased food-maintained responding. These results show that phentermine is effective in decreasing cocaine self-administration and suggest that it may be an effective medication for cocaine abuse. 相似文献

Sixteen nonheroin dependent drug abusers, who identified intravenous cocaine and heroin as their drug combination of choice, participated in a study assessing the efficacy of buprenorphine in altering the subjective and cardiovascular effects of such combinations. A sublingual dose of buprenorphine (none, 2, or 4 mg) was administered 50 min before the intravenous administration of morphine sulfate (0, 5, or 10 mg/70 kg) in combination with cocaine hydrochloride (0, 8, or 32 mg/70 kg). Buprenorphine had minimal effects on the response to cocaine alone but decreased cardiovascular activity produced by morphine alone. Buprenorphine decreased ratings of drug liking when given before combinations of 32 mg of cocaine and morphine. The greater effect of buprenorphine on cocaine-morphine combinations suggests that buprenorphine may be effective as a treatment medication for individuals who use such combinations.

Concurrent abuse of cocaine and opioids is frequently observed clinically, and we have developed a model of "speedball" self-administration involving the simultaneous injection of cocaine and heroin combinations in rhesus monkeys (Mello et al. (1995) J Pharmacol Exp Ther 274:1325). In the present study, we evaluated the effects of buprenorphine (0.0075-0.75 mg/kg/day i.v.) and saline on speedball combinations of cocaine [0.001, 0.01 or 0.10 mg/kg/inj] and heroin [0.0001-0.032 mg/kg/inj]. We also examined the effects of buprenorphine (0.075 and 0.237 mg/kg/day i.v.) on self-administration of heroin alone (0.0001-0.01 mg/kg/inj). Drug and food (1-g banana pellets) self-administration were maintained on a second-order FR4 (VR16:S) schedule in four 1-hr sessions each day. Each buprenorphine or saline control treatment was evaluated for 10 consecutive days, and monkeys returned to base-line performance between each treatment condition. Buprenorphine (0.075-0.75 mg/kg/day) selectively reduced self-administration of speedball combinations of low-dose cocaine (0.001 mg/kg/inj) and heroin (0.001 or 0.0032 mg/kg/inj) (P < .05-.01), and buprenorphine (0.237 mg/kg/day) shifted dose-effect curves for speedball combinations of cocaine (0.001 mg/kg/inj) and heroin (0.0001-0.032 mg/kg/inj) downward (P < .05-.01) and approximately 1 log unit to the right. Buprenorphine treatment was less effective in decreasing responding maintained by speedball combinations of heroin and 0.01 and 0.10 mg/kg/inj cocaine. Buprenorphine treatment (0.075 and 0.237 mg/kg/day) also shifted the heroin dose-effect curve downward (P < .01-.001) and to the right. Both speedball and heroin self-administration were associated with dose-dependent decreases in food-maintained responding during saline control treatment. However, food-maintained responding was often higher than control levels during buprenorphine treatment (P < .05-.001), which suggests that buprenorphine antagonized the rate-decreasing effects of speedballs and of heroin. Buprenorphine's selective reduction of speedball and heroin self-administration is consistent with clinical treatment trials in opioid abusers and polydrug abusers. Thus, these primate models of speedball and heroin self-administration should be useful for preclinical evaluation of novel drug abuse treatment medications. 相似文献

The effect of a dopamine receptor antagonist on locomotor activity was examined during withdrawal from either self-administered or experimenter-administered cocaine. In the self-administration experiment, the locomotor response to a challenge injection of cis-flupenthixol was assessed in photocell cages at 4 h after the cessation of a 12-h cocaine self-administration session. Rats which had self-administered cocaine, and were challenged with cis-flupenthixol (0.05 mg/kg), were found to be hypoactive relative to controls. In the experimenter-administered cocaine experiment, animals were given eight IP injections of 15 mg/kg cocaine over a 9.5-h period, for a total of 120 mg/kg. At 4, 8, and 24 h (tested in three separate groups of rats) after cessation of the eight injections, the locomotor response to a challenge injection of saline or cis-flupenthixol was tested. Cocaine-treated animals displayed a dose-dependent, heightened sensitivity to the locomotor depressant effects of 0.05 mg/kg and 0.2 mg/kg cis-flupenthixol 4 h post-cocaine, whereas they did not show increased sensitivity to 0.05 mg/kg cis-flupenthixol 8 or 24 h post-cocaine. However, cocaine-treated animals displayed a mild hypoactivity 8 h post-cocaine. In a separate group of animals, a dose-response experiment was performed which indicated that a dose of cis-flupenthixol as high as 0.2 mg/kg was required to produce locomotor depression in cocaine-naive rats. The results of this study support clinical observations of dopamine antagonist-precipitated motor dysfunction in abstinent cocaine abusers, and lend further support to the hypothesis that alterations in dopaminergic neurotransmission consequent to prolonged cocaine exposure are partly responsible for some of the symptoms of cocaine withdrawal. 相似文献

Ten male Wistar rats had access to 9 doses of nicotine (0.01–0.10 mg/kg iv) during daily 5-hr sessions. Once responding for nicotine stabilized, nicotine infusions were replaced with either cocaine infusions (0.0–2.4 mg/kg) or saline infusions. Saline substitution results indicate that nicotine functioned as a reinforcer. Regulation of nicotine intake was compared with that of cocaine by obtaining the correlation between mean interdose interval and preceding dose size. Results reveal that although this correlation was significant for both nicotine and cocaine self-administration, nicotine self-administration was less precisely regulated than cocaine self-administration. This procedure suggests that there are differences in regulation among self-administered drugs and that it may serve as a useful baseline for studying differences in vulnerability to drug abuse and potential treatment strategies.

People report that ethanol improves the experience produced by cocaine. This effect may be attributable to cocaethylene (CE), a cocaine metabolite formed only in the presence of ethanol. To test this, rats were trained to run an alley for a single intravenous dose of either cocaine (0.5–2.0 mg/kg) or an equimolar dose of CE (0.75–2.88 mg/kg). The rats' start latency and running speed measured the reinforcing effects of the drugs and the number of times rats approached but failed to enter the goal box (i.e., approach-avoidance retreats) indexed anxiety. Rats reinforced with CE had shorter start latencies and faster running speeds and exhibited fewer "retreats" than cocaine-reinforced rats. These results suggest that CE is more reinforcing and less anxiogenic than cocaine and hence may account for the combined effects of cocaine and ethanol in humans.

The effects of acute and chronic administration of cocaine on the antinociception and tolerance to the antinociceptive actions of mu-(morphine), kappa-(U-50,488H), and delta-([D-Pen2,D-Pen5]enkephalin; DPDPE), opioid receptor agonists were determined in male Swiss-Webster mice. Intraperitoneal injection of 40 mg/kg of cocaine by itself produced weak antinociceptive response as measured by the tail-fick test but the lower doses were ineffective. Administration of morphine (10 mg/kg, SC), U-50,488H (25 mg/kg, IP) or DPDPE (10 microg/mouse, ICV) produced antinociception in mice. Cocaine (20 mg/kg) potentiated the antinociceptive action of morphine and DPDPE but had no effect on U-50,488H-induced antinociception. Administration of morphine (20 mg/kg, SC), U-50,488H (25 mg/kg, IP) or DPDPE (20 microg/mouse, ICV) twice a day for 4 days resulted in the development of tolerance to their antinociceptive actions. Tolerance to the antinociceptive actions of morphine and U-50,488H was inhibited by concurrent treatment with 20 or 40 mg/kg doses of cocaine; however, tolerance to the antinociceptive action of DPDPE was not modified by cocaine. It is concluded that cocaine selectively potentiates the antinociceptive action of mu- and delta- but not of the kappa-opioid receptor agonist. On the other hand, cocaine inhibits the development of tolerance to the antinociceptive actions of mu- and kappa- but not of delta-opioid receptor agonists in mice. 相似文献

Effects of agmatine, which is an endogenous polyamine metabolite formed by decarboxylation of L-arginine, were investigated on the morphine abstinence syndrome in rats. Two pellets containing 75 mg morphine base (total 150 mg) were implanted subcutaneously on the back of rats. Seventy-two hours after morphine implantation, agmatine sulphate (20, 30 and 40 mg/kg) or saline was injected intraperitoneally. Forty-five min later, naloxone (2 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally to induce precipitated withdrawal. Immediately after naloxone injection, rats were observed for 15 min, and abstinence syndrome signs, which included jumping, wet dog shake, writhing, defecation, ptosis, teeth chattering and diarrhea were counted or rated. Agmatine attenuated all of the signs of the morphine abstinence syndrome dose dependently and significantly. Our results suggest that agmatine prevents naloxone-precipitated abstinence syndrome in morphine dependent rats; thus, this drug may be beneficial in the treatment of opioid dependence. 相似文献

Estrogen increases and progesterone decreases the acquisition and reinstatement of cocaine-seeking behavior in female rats. Here estrogen and progesterone were studied for their effects on the escalation of cocaine self-administration in female rats. The rats received ovariectomy (OVX) or sham (SH) surgery and were treated with estradiol benzoate (0.05 mg/kg sc) and/or progesterone (0.5 mg/kg) or vehicle (indicated by E, P, and V), resulting in 5 groups: SH+V, SH+P, OVX+V, OVX+E, OVX+E+P. Rats self-administered intravenous cocaine (0.4 mg/kg) under a fixed ratio 1 (FR 1) schedule during 2-hr sessions and were then given 6-hr sessions (long access; LgA) (FR 1) for 21 days. After LgA, self-administration was reassessed with 2-hr sessions under the FR 1 and a progressive ratio schedule with 4 cocaine doses. There were no differences among the 5 groups in cocaine self-administration during initial 2-hr sessions. During LgA, the SH+V, OVX+E, and OVX+V groups escalated their cocaine self-administration, whereas the OVX+E+P and SH+P groups did not. Estradiol increased escalation in the OVX+E group compared with the OVX+V group, and progesterone (SH+P) reduced escalation compared with the SH+V group. When estrogen and progesterone were both administered in OVX rats (OVX+E+P), escalation was significantly lower than in the OVX+E group. Cocaine infusions during the 2-hr sessions were significantly higher after escalation than before in all groups except the progesterone-treated groups (SH+P and OVX+E+P). Estrogen promoted and progesterone inhibited escalation of cocaine self-administration, illustrating the importance of female gonadal hormones in drug-seeking behavior.

Intravenous self-administration of GBR 12909, an indirect dopamine agonist, was examined on a Fixed Ratio (FR 1) and a Progressive Ratio (PR) schedule of reinforcement in rats. Subjects were first trained to self-administer cocaine (1.5 mg/kg/inj) during daily 5 h sessions, after which GBR 12909 (0.187-1.5 mg/kg/inj) was substituted. On the FR 1 schedule, the inter-infusion interval for GBR 12909 self-administration was directly related to dose and was approximately three times longer than that established for equivalent doses of cocaine. Breaking points on the PR schedule were comparable for GBR 12909 and cocaine self-administration. The data indicate that, compared to cocaine, GBR 12909 has a longer duration of action and a similar reinforcing efficacy. 相似文献
