| Resumen: | Methamphetamine (METH) use disorder (MUD) is a public health catastrophe. Herein, we used a METH self-administration model to assess behavioral responses to the dopamine receptor D1 (DRD1) antagonist, SCH23390. Differential gene expression was measured in the dorsal striatum after a 30-day withdrawal from METH. SCH23390 administration reduced METH taking in all animals. Shock Resistant (SR) rats showed greater incubation of METH seeking, which was correlated with increased Creb1, Cbp, and JunD mRNA expression. Cytoplasmic polyadenylation element binding protein 4 (Cpeb4) mRNA levels were increased in shock-sensitive (SS) rats. SS rats also showed increased protein levels for cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor (CPSF) and germ line development 2 (GLD2) that are CPEB4-interacting proteins. Interestingly, GLD2-regulated GLUN2A mRNA and its protein showed increased expression in the shock-sensitive rats. Taken together, these observations identified CPEB4-regulated molecular mechanisms acting via NMDA GLUN2A receptors as potential targets for the treatment of METH use disorder. |
