Project description:This study provides the first data on gene expression levels in whisker follicles and in the striatum in relation to MA reward and thereby may accelerate the research on the whisker follicle as an alternative source of biomarkers for the diagnosis of MA use disorder.

Project description:This study aimed to identify changes in novel miRNAs and their target genes during METH self-administration and investigate their roles in METH-induced locomotion. RNA sequencing analysis revealed that mir-183-5p was upregulated in the striatum of METH self-administered rats, and target gene prediction revealed that the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) gene, Nr3c1, was a potential target gene for mir-183-5p. We confirmed that single and repeated METH administrations increased METH-induced locomotion and plasma corticosterone levels in rats.

Project description:Methamphetamine is a widely abused, highly addictive drug. Regulation of synaptic proteins within the brain’s reward pathway modulates addiction behaviours, the progression of drug addiction and long-term changes in brain structure and function that result from drug use. Therefore, using large scale proteomics studies we aim to identify global protein expression changes within the dorsal striatum, a key brain region involved in the modulation of addiction. We performed LC-MS/MS analyses on rat striatal synaptosomes following 30 days of methamphetamine self-administration (2 hours/day) and 14 days abstinence. We identified a total of 84 differentially-expressed proteins with known roles in neuroprotection, neuroplasticity, cell cytoskeleton, energy regulation and synaptic vesicles. We identify significant expression changes in stress-induced phosphoprotein and protein Tppp, which have not previously been associated with addiction. In addition, we confirm the role of amphiphysin and phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein in addiction. This approach has provided new insight into the effects of methamphetamine self-administration on synaptic protein expression in a key brain region associated with addiction, showing a large set of differentially-expressed proteins that persist into abstinence.

Project description:Neuroplastic changes in the dorsal striatum participate in the transition from casual drug use to habitual and compulsive drug taking. These alterations might also play a critical role in the development of methamphetamine (METH) addiction. Nevertheless, the molecular substrates that underlie habitual METH consumption have yet to be elucidated. Therefore, in the present study, we examined the influence of METH self-administration on the expression of genes and proteins of interest, as potential substrates of METH-induced neuronal plasticity in the dorsal striatum. Rats self-administered METH (0.1 mg/kg/injection, i.v.) during 15 h sessions for 8 d and were euthanized after 2 h, 24 h, or 1 month of abstinence. Compared to yoked saline control, METH self-administration induced increases in the mRNA expression of the transcription factors, c-fos and fosb, the neurotrophic factor, Bdnf, and of the synaptic protein, synaptophysin (Syp) at 2 h after cessation of drug exposure. METH self-administration also caused changes in FosB, BDNF and TrkB protein levels, with increases at 2 and 24 h but decreases observed after 1 month of drug abstinence. Importantly, METH exposure caused increases in the levels of H3K4me3 and pCREB after 2 and 24 h of abstinence. Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by qPCR was used to clarify the role of these proteins in the regulation of gene expression. We found that METH self-administration caused enrichment of pCREB, but not of H3K4me3, on the promoters of c-fos, fosb, Bdnf and Syp at 2 h after drug cessation. These data indicate that METH-induced activation of their transcription is mediated, in part, by pCREB-dependent epigenetic phenomena. Thus, METH self-administration might trigger epigenetic changes that caused alterations in the expression of genes and proteins serving as substrates for addiction-related synaptic plasticity.

Animals were trained to self-administer METH for 8 d as described in the paper, dorsal striata were isolated 2 h, 24 h and 1 month after the final self-administration session. RNA extraction, RNA labeling and microarray hybridization were performed. In brief, total RNA was isolated from the samples using RNeasy Mini Kit (QIAGEN, Valencia, CA). RNA concentration and integrity was determined using Agilent BioAnalyzer (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA). Samples were stored at -80ºC. Microarray hybridization was done using RatRef-12 Expression BeadChips arrays (22 523 probes) (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA). A 600 ng of total RNA from each sample was amplified using Illumina RNA Amplification kit (Ambion, Austin, TX). Single-stranded RNA (cRNA) was generated and labeled by incorporating biotin-16-UTP (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, IN). 750 ng of each cRNA sample were hybridized to Illumina arrays at 55°C overnight according to the Gene Expression Protocol for BeadStation (Illumina Inc.). Hybridized cRNA was detected with cyanine3-streptavidin (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ) and quantified using Illumina's BeadStation 500GX scanner.
