Norepinephrine is a neurotransmitter that signals by stimulating the α1, α2and β adrenergic receptor (AR). We determined the role of these receptors in regulating the immediate early genes, Activity Regulated Cytoskeleton Associated Protein (Arc) and Zif268 in the rat cerebral cortex. RX821002, an α2-AR antagonist, produced Arc and Zif268 elevations across cortical layers. Next we examined the effects of delivering RX821002 with an α1-AR antagonist, prazosin, and a β-AR antagonist, propranolol. RX821002 given with a prazosin and propranolol cocktail, or with each of these antagonists individually, decreased Arc and Zif268 to saline-treated control levels in most cortical layers. Arc and Zif268 levels were also similar to saline-treated control levels when rats were given a prazosin and propranolol cocktail alone, or when each of these antagonists were delivered individually. Taken together, these data reveal that α2-AR uniquely exert a tonic inibitory regulation of both Arc and Zif268 compared to α1and β-AR. However, the ability of RX821002 to increase Arc and Zif268 is interdependent with α1and β-AR signaling.
