The arginine vasopressin (Avp) 1b receptor (Avpr1b) present on anterior pituitary corticotrophs is involved in the stimulation of adrenocorticotrophin (ACTH) secretion, especially during times of stress. Corticotrophin-releasing hormone (Crh) is considered the major ACTH secretagogue during acute stress while Avp appears to be the more dominant mediator of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis response during chronic stress situations. To investigate the role of the Avpr1b in the HPA axis response to acute stress, we measured ACTH and corticosterone (CORT) plasma levels in Avpr1b knockout (KO) mice and wild-type controls in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge and ethanol (EtOH) administration. Mice deficient in Avpr1b had markedly compromised plasma ACTH and CORT responses to acute (30 min) LPS, but normal ACTH and CORT response to more extended exposure (4 h) to the immune system activator. The plasma ACTH and CORT levels stimulated by intoxicating, sedative doses of EtOH (3.2 and 4g/kg) were significantly decreased in the Avpr1b KO mice, as compared to wild-type littermates. Significantly higher EtOH-induced plasma ACTH and CORT secretion was measured in female than in male Avpr1b wild-type mice. There was no difference in the blood alcohol levels (BALs) following acute EtOH administration in Avpr1b KO or wild-type mice of either gender. Our results clearly suggest that the Avpr1b plays a significant role in the HPA axis response to acute immune stress and EtOH intoxication.
