Papel dos receptores 5-HT1A do Núcleo Mediano da Rafe de ratos nas consequências comportamentais da exposição ao estresse de nado forçado

Abstract in Portuguese
A exposição a estressores incontroláveis leva a alterações comportamentais e bioquímicas significativas que parecem envolver um mau funcionamento da via serotoninérgica Núcleo Mediano da Rafe (NMnR)-Hipocampo Dorsal, mediada por receptores de tipo 5-HT1A (5-HT1aR), sugerindo que as associações aprendidas, relacionadas à exposição ao estresse e suas conseqüências emocionais, não foram desconectadas. Estudos na literatura sugerem que processos de memória são tempo-dependentes e podem ser alterados pela administração de drogas no momento de sua formação ou evocação. Assim, o objetivo do trabalho foi investigar se a interferência na neurotransmissão serotoninérgica mediada por 5-HT1aR, no NMnR, em diferentes momentos com relação à exposição ao estresse de nado forçado pode prevenir ou atenuar os efeitos desse estressor. Ratos Wistar machos (n=5-13/grupo) receberam duas injeções intra-NMnR de Salina (Sal), 8-OH-DPAT (DPAT; 3nmoles/0,2µL; agonista 5-HT1aR) e/ou WAY100635 (WAY; 0,3nmoles/0,2µL; antagonista 5-HT1aR) compondo os grupos experimentais: Sal+Sal, Sal+DPAT, WAY+Sal, WAY+DPAT. As drogas foram administradas em três condições experimentais distintas: antes da pré-exposição ao nado forçado; antes do teste em animais submetidos à pré-exposição; ou antes do teste em animais não pré-expostos. O teste ocorreu 24 horas após a pré-exposição. O tempo de latência para o primeiro episódio de imobilidade (LAT) e o tempo total gasto imóvel (IMO) foram registrados. Somente animais com sítios de injeção confirmados foram usados na análise (ANOVA de uma via seguida por teste post hoc de Duncan). Nossos resultados sugerem que o tratamento com 8-OH-DPAT antes da pré-exposição ou do teste em animais estressados previne ou atenua, respectivamente, as consequências comportamentais da exposição prévia ao estresse de nado forçado. Além disso, nossos dados sugerem que tanto a interferência no processo de aquisição da memória aversiva quanto da evocação da mesma são em parte mediados por 5-HT1aR.

Abstract in English
Exposure to uncontrollable stressors leads to significant behavioral and biochemical changes which has been associated to mal functioning of the Median Raphe Nucleus (NMnR) Dorsal Hippocampus serotonergic pathway, mediated by receptor type 5-HT1A (5-HT1aR), suggesting that learned associations related to exposure to stress and emotional consequences from such exposure were not disconnected. Published studies suggest that memory processes are time-dependent and can be changed by the administration of drugs at the time of its formation or retrieval. The objective of the present study was to investigate whether interference with serotonergic neurotransmission mediated by 5-HT1aR in NMnR at different times in relation to exposure to forced swim stress could prevent or reduce the effects of this stressor. Male Wistar rats (n = 5-13/grupo) received two intra-NMnR injections of Saline (Sal), 8-OH-DPAT (DPAT; 3nmoles / 0.2 mL; 5-HT1aR agonist) and / or WAY100635 (WAY; 0.3 nmol / 0.2 mL; 5-HT1aR antagonist) composing the experimental groups: Sal + Sal, Sal + DPAT, WAY + Sal, WAY + DPAT. The drugs were administered in three different experimental conditions: before preexposure to forced swim; before testing in animals subjected to preexposure; or before testing in animals not preexposed. The test occurred 24 hours after preexposure. The latency to the first episode of immobility (LAT) and the total time spent immobile e (IMO) were registered. Only animals who had their sites of injection confirmed were used in the analysis (one-way ANOVA followed by post hoc test Duncan). Our results suggest that treatment with 8-OH-DPAT before preexposure or testing in stressed animals prevents or attenuates, respectively, the behavioral consequences of prior exposure to forced swim stress. Furthermore, our data suggest that both the interference in the acquisition of aversive memory, and the retrieval of the same are partly mediated by 5-HT1aR.
