Abstract

Here, we present recent studies suggesting that specific DRD3 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs, e.g. rs324029 and rs2654754) might serve as prognostic biomarkers for opioid use disorder (OUD). Additionally, preclinical studies with novel dopamine 3 receptor (D3R) partial agonists and antagonists have been evaluated as candidate OUD therapeutics and have shown a reduced risk of cardiovascular toxicity compared with the original D3R antagonist. From these findings, we argue that DRD3 SNPs could serve as a diagnostic tool for assessing OUD risk and that more research is warranted examining the D3R as a safe and effective therapeutic target for treating OUD.

29. Effects of pharmacological and environmental manipulations on choice between fentanyl and shock avoidance/escape in male and female rats under mutually exclusive and non-exclusive choice conditions

Abstract

Substance use disorders are defined by persistent drug consumption despite adverse consequences. Accordingly, we developed two fentanyl-vs-shock avoidance/escape choice procedures in which male and female rats responded under a fixed-ratio (FR)1:FR1 concurrent schedule of shock avoidance/escape and IV fentanyl under either mutually exclusive or non-exclusive choice conditions. Initial experiments using a discrete-trial procedure determined behavioral allocation between mutually exclusive shock avoidance/escape and different fentanyl doses (0.32–18 μg/kg/infusion; Experiment 1). Shock intensity (0.1–0.7 mA) and shock avoidance/escape response requirement (FR1-16) were also manipulated (Experiment 2). Next, we used a free-operant procedure in which shock avoidance/escape and fentanyl were continuously available under non-exclusive conditions, and response-shock (R-S) interval (30–1000 s) was manipulated (Experiment 3). Finally, we tested the hypothesis that extended-access fentanyl self-administration would produce fentanyl dependence, establish fentanyl withdrawal as an endogenous negative reinforcer, and increase fentanyl choice in both procedures (Experiments 4 and 5). The shock avoidance/escape contingency decreased fentanyl self-administration, and rats consistently chose shock avoidance/escape over fentanyl in both choice conditions. Decreasing shock intensity or increasing shock avoidance/escape response requirement failed to increase fentanyl choice, suggesting that fentanyl and shock avoidance/escape are independent economic commodities. Increasing the R-S interval increased fentanyl choice but failed to increase shock delivery. Extended fentanyl access engendered high fentanyl intake and opioid withdrawal signs but failed to increase fentanyl choice under either choice condition. These results suggest that neither positive fentanyl reinforcement nor negative reinforcement by fentanyl withdrawal is sufficient to reduce shock avoidance/escape-maintained responding and increase foot shock as an adverse consequence.
