The Role of Dopamine, Reward Learning and Prefrontal Activity in Expectation-induced Mood Enhancement

Although placebo effects on depressive symptoms are well documented, the underlying mechanisms and moderating factors of expectation effects on mood and depression are poorly understood. Various studies show reduced reward processing in clinical and subclinical depression, presumably due to abnormalities in the dopamine (DA) system. Here, the investigators will test whether expectation-induced mood enhancement is mediated by endogenous DA activity and reward learning, and moderated by individual differences in depression-related personality traits. Healthy participants (N=296) will be tested for potentially relevant personality traits and given an inactive substance (placebo) or a DA D2-receptor antagonist sulpiride (400 mg) in combination with a low vs. high expectation manipulation (fully crossed 2x2 placebo design) before performing a probabilistic reinforcement learning task, an effort expenditure task, and undergo a depressed mood induction procedure. Further, EEG indices will be assessed throughout the tasks.
The investigators expect that positive expectation improves participants' reinforcement learning, increases participants' willingness to make effort in order to obtain reward, and leads to less depressive symptoms as indicated by mood ratings upon depressive mood induction. If the overall effect of positive expectations is mediated by DA, high-dose sulpiride should block expectation-induced effects, i.e., the anticipated enhanced reinforcement learning and effort expenditure as well as mood improvement in the high vs. low expectation group.

The Effect of Antiemetics on Bowel Preparation Before Colonoscopy

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is one of the most common laxatives used in colonoscopy. However, 5 - 15% of patients can not complete the preparation due to its poor taste and large volume. So this study is aimed to explore the effect of antiemetics on abdominal discomforts associated with PEG.

Exploring the contribution of the dopaminergic and noradrenergic systems in the antidepressant-like action of 1-(2-(4-(4-ethylphenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)phenyl)ethanone in mice

Article

1-(2-(4-(4-ethylphenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)phenyl)ethanone (ETAP) is a novel hybrid compound containing 1,2,3-triazole and acetophenone. It exhibits antidepressant-like effects in male mice, linked to modulation of serotonergic receptors and monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) inhibition. This study aimed to evaluate the involvement of the dopaminergic and noradrenergic systems, as well as MAO-B activity inhibition, in the antidepressant-like effect of ETAP in male mice, and to evaluate the antidepressant-like effect of ETAP in female mice. Male mice were treated with different dopaminergic and noradrenergic receptors antagonists 15 min before administering ETAP (1 mg/kg, intragastrically, i.g.). The tail suspension test (TST) was performed 30 minutes later. Different male mice were treated with ETAP (1 mg/kg, i.g.), and 30 minutes later, were euthanized to assess MAO-B activity in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus. To evaluate the antidepressant-like of ETAP in female mice, ETAP (1 mg/kg, i.g.) was administered, followed by the TST and the forced swimming test (FST) 30 minutes later. The dopaminergic antagonists haloperidol (0.05 mg/kg, intraperitoneally, i.p.), SCH23390 (0.01 mg/kg, subcutaneously, s.c.), and sulpiride (50 mg/kg, i.p.), as well the noradrenergic antagonists prazosin (1 mg/kg, i.p.), yohimbine (1 mg/kg, i.p.), and propranolol (2 mg/kg, i.p.), prevented the antidepressant-like effect of ETAP in the TST. MAO-B activity was unaffected by ETAP in both the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus. ETAP (1 mg/kg, i.g.) induced a significant antidepressant-like effect in female mice in the TST and FST. These findings provide valuable insights into the antidepressant-like effect of ETAP, highlighting its potential for developing more effective depression treatments.

Cannabidiol Plays a Modulatory Function on the Methamphetamine-Induced Reward Through Hippocampal D2-Like Dopamine Receptors

Article

Author: Haghparast, Abbas ; Azizbeigi, Ronak ; Omidiani, Seyed Erfan ; Mohammadi, Mahsa

Methamphetamine (METH), a stimulant that is extremely addictive, directly affects the central nervous system. METH's abuse and consumption are directly linked to mental illnesses, psychosis, and behavioral and cognitive impairments. It may disrupt the reward system and dopaminergic transmission. METH's rewarding qualities are associated with a rise in dopamine. Additionally, cannabidiol (CBD), one of the primary cannabinoid components of the cannabis plant, significantly affects dopaminergic transmission and may aid in reward- and addiction-related behaviors. To shed light on the role of the D2-like dopamine receptor (D2R) in the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG), the present study examined the effects of CBD on the acquisition and expression of the conditioned place preference (CPP) induced by METH. The function of D2R was ascertained by delivering Sulpiride microinjections, as a D2R antagonist Sulpiride (0.25, 1, and 4 μg/0.5 μL DMSO12%) into the DG. Moreover, an intracerebroventricular injection of CBD at a dose of 10 μg/5 μL for CPP acquisition and 50 μg/5 μL for CPP expression was given to rats. According to the current research, CBD dramatically reduced the acquisition and expression of CPP resulting from METH. However, Sulpiride suppressed the effect of CBD on METH-induced CPP acquisition and expression, with a greater impact on expression experiments. Ultimately, this study proposed that the expression experiment of METH-induced CPP appears to be heavily dependent on D2R in the DG.

Prolactin locally mediates follicular atresia in hyperprolactinemic vizcachas (Rodentia, Chinchillidae)

Article

Infertility in hyperprolactinemic females is attributed to the dysregulation of GnRH release, subsequently affecting gonadotropin levels, and ultimately leading to anovulation. However, in addition to the hypothalamus, prolactin receptor (PRLR) is expressed in ovaries as well, suggesting potential local effects of PRL in cases of hyperprolactinemia. We have developed an experimental model of sulpiride (SPD)-induced hyperprolactinemia using a wild rodent, the plains vizcacha, and studied the implications of pharmacological PRL levels on folliculogenesis and steroid production. Ovaries of SPD females showed a striking number of atretic follicles along with a reduction in the collective number of viable follicles leading to a higher atretic/viable follicle ratio compared to that of control females (CTL) (P < 0.05). In terms of sensitivity to the hormonal environment, SPD ovaries substantially changed their potential responsiveness to pituitary PRL, as evidenced by the three-fold increase in PRLR expression alongside heightened expression of both gonadotropic receptors in comparison to CTL ovaries (P < 0.05). Circulating estradiol (E2) values doubled post-treatment in the SPD females, which also showed higher expressions of aromatase and 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, along with both E2 receptors, ERα and ERβ than the CTL group (P < 0.05). Our findings strongly suggest that hyperprolactinemia-dependent dysregulation of ovarian function can be explained at least partially, by PRL direct actions facilitated by the heightened expression of PRLR in follicles and corpora lutea. Possibly these PRL actions synergize with those triggered by gonadotropic hormones ultimately leading to alteration of the steroidogenic pathway, folliculogenesis disruption and increased atresia.

Sanofi CEO Paul Hudson offloads two portfolios to German pharma company in continued effort to prune products

Sanofi warned earlier this year that some serious cuts were in order. CEO Paul Hudson made good on that promise this week, pruning more than a dozen marketed products. Germany-based Neuraxpharm revealed yesterday that it struck a deal for Sanofi’s CNS and pain and vascular disease portfolios. While the companies are keeping the financial terms under wraps for now, Neuraxpharm did say it’s swallowing 17 products representing 38 brands, including neuroleptics Nozinan and Tiapridal, anxiety med Tranxene and antipsychotics Dogmatil and Largactil. Within the pain and vascular portfolio, Neuraxpharm is getting pain narcotic Topalgic and Trental, which is used to improve blood flow. Neuraxpharm expects that the new products will boost sales to about $600 million this year. “There is significant growth potential in the pharmaceutical sector, especially in the CNS market driven by an aging population and an increasing awareness of mental health,” CEO Jörg-Thomas Dierks said in a news release. “With the upcoming acquisition, we will not only strengthen our presence in Europe, but also lay the ground for further expanding our international presence.” The new drugs will contribute to a portfolio of CNS drugs, as well as generics and consumer healthcare products such as nutraceuticals and probiotics, according to Neuraxpharm’s website. The company has main offices in Germany and Spain, with additional locations throughout Europe. Hudson has been on a mission to reshape Sanofi since he took the helm in 2019. He said earlier this year that nothing is off the table when it comes to restructuring, and has already culled a handful of programs. During the Q1 call, EVP of general medicines Olivier Charmeil said the company is looking to shave the general medicines unit down to about 125 product families, either by divesting or discontinuing programs. That’s a big difference from late 2019 and early 2020, when the unit boasted more than 350 product families. The company also revealed in its Q4 results that it plans on axing about 6,000 jobs in an effort to become more “agile.” Execs said at the time that they were aiming for a headcount of around 90,000 by the end of the year.
