项目摘要
Despite their dangers, the number of opioid prescriptions written for veterans has increased sharply since
2000, and veterans are more prone than the general population to both suicide and the development of use
disorders following opioid treatment. Target receptors for opioids are widely expressed throughout the brain
and periphery, but their reinforcing properties are largely mediated by their action in mesocorticolimbic areas
such as the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and the nucleus accumbens (NAc). In the VTA, activation of
presynaptic mu-opioid receptors is known to blunt release of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA, thus
“disinhibiting” dopamine neuron activity. Preliminary work has established that the modulatory peptide
neurotensin can activate presynaptic neurotensin 1 receptors (NtsR1) to enhance GABA release in the VTA.
While this novel form of synaptic plasticity would be expected to directly counteract the effects of opioids, it is
not known how repeated opioid exposure interacts with neurotensin effects on GABA signaling. Opioids and
neurotensin are both known to modulate pain; however, there are significant gaps in our knowledge of how
these compounds interact at the synaptic and circuit level in the VTA to affect drug reinforcement. Improved
treatments for opioid use disorders are desperately needed, both for the general population but also for aging
veterans that will increasingly develop painful conditions that require long-term treatment. The proposed
studies are necessary to determine the feasibility of targeting the neurotensin system to modulate
reinforcement and relapse in individuals that no longer can control their opioid intake.
We will combine brain slice electrophysiology and cell type-specific molecular techniques with self-
administration of the opioid remifentanil in mice to explore these issues. The use of operant self-administration
in mice offers several key advantages: mice are able to titrate their intake based on individual sensitivity, and
using mice instead of rats opens up the powerful tools of mouse genetics (i.e., Cre-lox technology) to
experimental manipulations. The hypothesis to be tested is that a history of remifentanil self-administration
decreases neurotensin-induced enhancement of GABA release in the NAc VTA circuit, removing a critical
break on dopamine neuron excitability during drug intake to increase reinforcement. Experiments in Aim 1 will
identify the sensitivity of individual GABA inputs in the VTA to neurotensin, and determine how plasticity is
affected by remifentanil self-administration as well as following a forced abstinence. Experiments in Aim 2 will
use chemogenetics to activate specific GABA inputs to determine their effect on remifentanil self-administration
behavior and cue responding following a forced abstinence. A novel cell type-specific neurotensin receptor
knockout will provide additional information on the role of specific cell types on opioid self-administration.
Experiments in Aim 3 will use a discovery approach to determine transcriptomic and epigenomic alterations
following remifentanil self-administration in single cell types of the VTA. This will be done with several novel
NuTRAP (Nuclear Tagging and Translating Ribosome Affinity Purification) mouse lines under the control of Cre
recombinase that allow for labeling and isolation of both DNA and RNA from specific cell types. Improved
strategies are desperately needed to improve the quality of life for veterans at risk of adverse consequences
following opioid treatment. Data obtained will delineate the behavioral and physiological interactions between
GABA input to the VTA, neurotensin signaling, and opioid exposure, and identify novel gene and receptor
targets for exploration as treatments for opioid use disorders.
尽管存在危险,但自2009年以来,为退伍军人开具的阿片类药物处方数量急剧增加。
2000年,退伍军人比一般人群更容易自杀和发展使用
阿片类药物治疗后的症状。阿片类药物的靶受体在整个大脑中广泛表达
和周边,但它们的强化性能主要是介导的,他们的行动在中皮质边缘区
如腹侧被盖区(VTA)和延髓核(NAc)。在腹侧被盖区,
已知突触前μ-阿片样物质受体抑制抑制性神经递质GABA的释放,因此
“解除抑制”多巴胺神经元活动。初步工作已经确定,
神经降压素可激活突触前神经降压素1受体(NtsR 1)以增强VTA中的GABA释放。
虽然这种新形式的突触可塑性预计将直接抵消阿片类药物的影响,但它是
不知道重复的阿片样物质暴露如何与神经降压素对GABA信号传导的影响相互作用。阿片类药物和
已知神经降压素都可以调节疼痛;然而,我们对如何调节疼痛的知识存在重大空白。
这些化合物在VTA中的突触和回路水平上相互作用以影响药物强化。改进
阿片类药物使用障碍的治疗是迫切需要的,无论是对普通人群,
退伍军人将越来越多地发展需要长期治疗的痛苦状况。拟议
