项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Both memory and addiction produce long-lasting changes in behavior and result in chronic neural adaptations in response to repeated neural activity. It is therefore likely that memory and addiction recruit some of the same molecular mechanisms of synaptic plasticity in the same neural structures. In the present proposal, we explore the parallels between addiction and memory by examining the impact of genetic and anatomical manipulations known to affect memory on addiction-related behavioral plasticity. In a simple behavioral paradigm in mice we can rapidly quantify psychomotor sensitization to repeated cocaine injections, as well as the conditioned response to cues associated with cocaine administration, the contextual control over the expression of cocaine sensitization, and conditioned place preference induced by cocaine. First, we use this paradigm to evaluate the role of the hippocampus and amygdala in addiction-related memory. Second, we use inducible and region-specific disruption of calcium/calmodulin- dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII), a criticial kinase in memory formation, in addiction. Finally, we examine the role of calcium calmodulin in addiction. A benefit of using modern genetic manipulation is the ability to better localize key neuroadaptations through disruption of dendritic translation, and inducible region-specific disruption of alpha-CaMKI in the forebrain and striatum. The inducible and reversible molecular manipulations we propose, post-induction disruption of CaMKII or calcium calmodulin, actually have the potential to reverse sensitization to cocaine and related memories. Taken together, these studies will evaluate the parallels between memory and addiction-related behavioral plasticity and shed considerable light on whether manipulations of memory will prove useful in the treatment of addiction.Project Narrative Addiction is a major social and medical problem affecting millions of compulsive drug users. In the present proposal we examine the relationship between memory and addiction at the level of the brain. If memory and addiction prove to be highly related, disruptions of memory may prove highly useful in the treatment of addiction.

描述（由申请人提供）：记忆和成瘾都会产生持久的行为变化，并导致对重复神经活动的慢性神经适应。因此，记忆和成瘾很可能在相同的神经结构中招募了一些相同的突触可塑性分子机制。在本提案中，我们通过研究已知影响记忆的遗传和解剖学操作对成瘾相关行为可塑性的影响，探索成瘾和记忆之间的相似之处。在一个简单的行为模式在小鼠中，我们可以快速量化的精神敏化重复注射可卡因，以及条件反应的提示与可卡因管理，上下文控制可卡因敏化的表达，可卡因诱导的条件位置偏好。首先，我们使用这个范例来评估海马和杏仁核在成瘾相关记忆中的作用。第二，我们在成瘾中使用钙/钙调蛋白依赖性蛋白激酶II（CaMKII）的诱导性和区域特异性破坏，CaMKII是记忆形成中的关键激酶。最后，我们研究钙钙调素在成瘾中的作用。使用现代遗传操作的益处是能够通过破坏树突翻译和前脑和纹状体中α-CaMKI的可诱导区域特异性破坏来更好地定位关键神经适应。我们提出的诱导和可逆的分子操作，诱导后中断CaMKII或钙钙调蛋白，实际上有可能逆转敏感可卡因和相关的记忆。总之，这些研究将评估记忆和成瘾相关的行为可塑性之间的相似之处，并揭示记忆操纵是否会证明在成瘾治疗中有用。项目叙事成瘾是一个主要的社会和医学问题，影响着数百万强迫性药物使用者。在本提案中，我们从大脑层面研究了记忆与成瘾之间的关系。如果记忆和成瘾被证明是高度相关的，那么记忆的中断可能在成瘾的治疗中非常有用。
