项目摘要

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Deficits across the domains of reward and cognition are defining characteristics of virtually all neuropsychiatric disorders, and have deleterious effects on functional recovery, disease chronicity, and morbidity. Development of effective treatments is hindered by the lack of well-validated preclinical measures of target engagement that are functionally similar across species. Capitalizing on a partnership among basic and translational neuroscientists with a strong track record of collaborations, the overarching goal of this UH2/UH3 application is to develop new translational assessments of reward and cognition in which the neurophysiological and behavioral metrics are identical across species. We will address this objective by modifying and validating assessments of reward learning, cognitive control, and cognitive flexibility, each of which is disrupted across illnesses. During the UH2 phase, we will modify and test existing human and rodent versions of a probabilistic reward task (PRT; reward learning), a flanker task (cognitive control) [alternative task: 4-choice serial reaction time task], a probabilistic reversal learning task (PRL; cognitive flexibility), such that task parameters are analogous between humans and rats. Additionally, we will record EEG data in both humans and rats during performance of each task. In both species, EEG data will be analyzed using several techniques, including frequency-domain multi-taper power spectral analyses, time-domain event-related potential (ERP) analyses, and cross-frequency phase-amplitude coupling analyses. In humans, distributed source localization analyses will focus on a priori regions, such as the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC; reward learning and cognitive control), dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC; cognitive control), and lateral orbitofrontal cortx (OFC; reversal learning); EEG electrodes in rats will be placed over homologous regions. We hypothesize that by increasing the congruence of task parameters, task-related behavioral and neurophysiological assays will be similar across species. The two tasks that show the highest neurophysiological (and behavioral) concordance between humans and rats will be advanced to the UH3 phase, in which the selected task(s) will be validated with pharmacological challenges. Specifically, reward learning, cognitive control, or reversal learning and their respective neurophysiological mechanisms will be probed after administration of either the dopamine D2/D3 receptor antagonist amisulpride, the serotonin neurotransmission enhancer vortioxetine, or the cognitive enhancer modafinil. Each pharmacological challenge is based on specific a priori hypotheses regarding neurobiological mechanisms underlying each behavioral construct. Ultimately, these studies will provide novel measures of reward and/or cognition in both humans and rats that show clear parallels in behavior and neurophysiology that can be manipulated with putative treatments across species. Such tasks will help narrow the existing translational gap between preclinical animal and human research and will promote the development of urgently needed treatments for reward and cognitive disorders.
 描述(由申请人提供):奖励和认知领域的缺陷是几乎所有神经精神疾病的定义特征,对功能恢复、疾病慢性化和发病率具有有害影响。有效治疗的开发受到缺乏经过充分验证的跨物种功能相似的靶点接合的临床前措施的阻碍。利用基础和转化神经科学家之间的合作伙伴关系,具有良好的合作记录, 该UH 2/UH 3应用是开发对奖赏和认知的新的翻译评估,其中神经生理学和行为度量在物种之间是相同的。我们将通过修改和验证奖励学习,认知控制和认知灵活性的评估来实现这一目标,其中每一个都在疾病中被破坏。在UH 2阶段,我们将修改和测试现有的人类和啮齿动物版本的概率奖励任务(PRT;奖励学习),侧翼任务(认知控制)[替代任务:4选择序列反应时间任务],概率逆转学习任务(PRL;认知灵活性), 任务参数在人类和大鼠之间是类似的。此外,我们将记录人类和大鼠在执行每项任务期间的EEG数据。在这两个物种中,EEG数据将使用几种技术进行分析,包括频域多锥度功率谱分析,时域事件相关电位(ERP)分析和交叉频率相位振幅耦合分析。在人类中,分布式源定位分析将集中在先验区域,例如背侧前扣带皮层(dACC;奖励学习和认知控制),背外侧前额叶皮层(DLPFC;认知控制)和外侧眶额皮层(OFC;逆转学习);大鼠的EEG电极将放置在同源区域上。我们假设,通过增加任务参数的一致性,任务相关的行为和神经生理学测定在不同物种之间将是相似的。在人类和大鼠之间表现出最高神经生理学(和行为)一致性的两项任务将进入UH 3阶段,在此阶段,将通过药理学挑战对选定的任务进行验证。具体来说,在给予多巴胺D2/D3受体拮抗剂氨磺必利、血清素神经传递增强剂沃替西汀或认知增强剂莫达非尼后,将探索奖励学习、认知控制或逆转学习及其各自的神经生理机制。每种药理学挑战都是基于关于每种行为结构背后的神经生物学机制的特定先验假设。最终,这些研究将为人类和大鼠的奖励和/或认知提供新的测量方法,这些方法在行为和神经生理学上显示出明显的相似性,可以通过跨物种的假定治疗来操纵。这些任务将有助于缩小临床前动物和人类研究之间现有的转化差距,并将促进奖励和认知障碍急需的治疗方法的开发。
