英文摘要
Project Summary
A major goal of modern addiction research is to understand the neural adaptations that underlie the chronic,
maladaptive and, for many, treatment-‐refractory behaviors produced by drugs of abuse, including cocaine.
Considerable optimism exists in this regard, as powerful preclinical tools and well-‐established animal models
have resulted in dramatic advances in our understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms of cocaine-‐
related plasticity [1]. Nonetheless, a considerable gap remains in the clinical-‐translational testing and validation
of such preclinical findings in human cocaine addiction.
In seminal preclinical studies nearly 20 years ago, Robinson & Kolb [2, 3] demonstrated enduring increases in
synaptic (i.e., dendritic spine) density in both the nucleus accumbens [NAc] and medial prefrontal cortex [mPFC])
of rodents following behaviorally sensitizing regimens of cocaine. Their findings were compelling and suggested
an important pathophysiological mechanism – aberrant structural synaptic plasticity – whereby cocaine might
produce the chronic, recalcitrant behaviors (e.g., craving, compulsive use, and relapse) so seemingly ‘hard-‐
wired’ in those suffering from the disorder.
Our group has developed a novel radiotracer, 11C-‐UCB-‐J, for imaging synaptic density in the living human brain
using positron-‐emission tomography (PET) [62, 63]. Thus, the current Cutting Edge Basic Research Award
(CEBRA)/R21 application seeks to apply this breakthrough methodology to explore whether observations of
increased synaptic density in the NAc and mPFC of rodents are recapitulated in cocaine dependent (CD) humans.
If achieved, the current study would have a major impact, providing powerful clinical-‐translational support for
aberrant brain structure at the synaptic level, setting the stage for future studies of the relationship of such
aberrant synaptic density to withdrawal/abstinence, cocaine-‐related behavior and clinical outcome.
