3,4-Methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV), and other structurally-related synthetic cathinones, are popular alternatives to prototypical illicit psychostimulants, such as cocaine and methamphetamine. These drugs are often referred to as “bath salts”, and function either as cocaine-like inhibitors of monoamine uptake, or amphetamine-like substrates for dopamine (DAT), norepinephrine (NET), and serotonin (SERT) transporters. These studies used male Sprague-Dawley rats trained to discriminate MDPV from saline to evaluate the substitution profiles of structurally-related synthetic cathinones, cocaine, and other direct acting dopamine and noradrenergic receptor agonists in order to characterize the relative contributions of dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin to the discriminative stimulus effects of MDPV. As expected, each of the cathinones and cocaine dose-dependently increased MDPV-appropriate responding, with a rank order potency that was positively correlated with their potency to inhibit DAT and NET, but not SERT, a relationship that is consistent with the rank order to maintain self-administration. The dopamine D2/3 receptor-preferring agonist quinpirole produced a modest increase in MDPV-appropriate responding whilst the dopamine D1/5 receptor agonist, SKF 82958, non-selective dopamine receptor agonist, apomorphine, as well as the α–1, and α–2 adrenergic receptor agonists, phenylephrine and clonidine, respectively, failed to increase MDPV-appropriate responding at doses smaller than those that suppressed responding altogether. Although these studies do not support a role for serotonergic or adrenergic systems in mediating/modulating the discriminative stimulus effects of MDPV, convergent evidence is provided to suggest that the discriminative stimulus effects of MDPV are primarily mediated by its capacity to inhibit DAT, and the subsequent activation of dopamine D2 and/or D3 receptors.
