Publicación Sex differences in nicotine-induced impulsivity and its reversal with bupropion in rats(SAGE, 2020-12) Nazarian, Arbi; Ibias Martín, JavierAbstract References Supplementary Material Get access Cite article Share options Information, rights and permissions Metrics and citations Abstract Background: Enhancement in cognitive impulsivity and the resulting alterations in decision making serve as a contributing factor for the development and maintenance of substance-use disorders. Nicotine-induced increases in impulsivity has been previously reported in male humans and rodents. Although the potential for sex differences in nicotine-induced impulsivity has not been examined. Aims and methods: In the present study, male and female Sprague Dawley rats were submitted to a delay discounting task, in which several consecutive measures of self-control were taken. Firstly, rats were tested with vehicle, and next with nicotine doses of 0.4 and 0.8 mg/kg. Thereafter, chronic treatment with bupropion started, and the animals were tested again. Half the animals continued to receive 0.8 mg/kg of nicotine, while the rest received nicotine and also a daily dose of 30 mg/kg of bupropion. Results: When the animals were first tested with nicotine, female rats showed a significant nicotine dose dependent increase of impulsive behaviour, whereas male rats only showed a decrease on their elections of the larger but delayed reward under the highest dose of 0.8 mg/kg of nicotine. Treatment with bupropion blocked the effect of nicotine on decision making in female rats, as they showed results close to their baseline levels. On the other hand, bupropion did not affect the nicotine-induced delay discounting in male rats. Conclusion: These findings demonstrate sexually dimorphic effects of nicotine on cognitive impulsivity which may help to shed light on nicotine use vulnerabilities observed in women.Publicación Insulin dependent and independent normalization of blood glucose levels reduces the enhanced rewarding effects of nicotine in a rodent model of diabetes(Elsevier, 2018-10-01) O’Dell, Laura E.; Nazarian, Arbi; Ibias Martín, JavierThe rewarding effects of nicotine have been previously shown to be enhanced in rodent models of diabetes. It is presently unclear whether the enhanced nicotine reward observed in the diabetes models are mediated via an insulin or glucose mechanism. This study examined whether the enhanced rewarding effects of nicotine observed in streptozotocin (STZ)-treated rats are insulin-mediated. Male and female rats were treated with STZ and the rewarding effects of nicotine (0.2 mg/kg) were measured using the conditioned place preference (CPP) procedure. Some STZ-treated animals received insulin supplementation via subcutaneous pellets immediately after STZ administration, while other rats received daily injections of dapagliflozin (10 mg/kg), a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor. Both male and female STZ-treated rats displayed hyperglycemia, and their blood glucose levels (BGLs) were normalized to control levels following insulin supplementation or dapagliflozin administration. STZ-treated male rats displayed higher nicotine CPP relative to vehicle-treated controls. This effect was abolished in rats that received insulin supplementation or dapagliflozin administration. STZ-treated female rats displayed reduced levels of nicotine CPP as compared to male rats, regardless of treatment condition. These results suggest that glucose plays a major role in modulating the rewarding effects of nicotine in male rats treated with STZ.Publicación The Effect of Methylphenidate on the Microstructure of Schedule-Induced Polydipsia in an animal model of ADHD(Elsevier, 2017-08-30) Daniels, Carter W.; Sanabria, Federico; Ibias Martín, Javier; Miguens Vázquez, Miguel; Pellón Suárez de Puga, RicardoSchedule-induced polydipsia (SIP) was established in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY), and Wistar rats, using a multiple fixed-time (FT) schedule of food delivery, with 30- and 90-s components. Thereafter, animals were exposed to methylphenidate (MPH; 2.5 mg/kg/d) for six consecutive SIP sessions. A test to assess possible sensitization effects was also conducted four days after termination of the drug treatment. At baseline, FT 90-s produced longer and more frequent drinking episodes in SHR than in WKY. An analysis of the distribution of inter-lick intervals revealed that drinking was organized in bouts, which were shorter in SHR than in WKY. Across strains and schedules, MPH shifted drinking episodes towards the beginning of inter-food intervals, which may reflect a stimulant effect on SIP. MPH transiently reduced the frequency of drinking episodes in WKY in FT 30-s, and more permanently reduced the frequency of licking bouts in Wistar rats. MPH also increased the length of licking bouts in Wistar rats. Overall, SHR displayed a hyperactive-like pattern of drinking (frequent but short bouts), which 2.5 mg/kg MPH appears to reduce in WKY and Wistar but not in SHR rats. It appears that therapeutic effects of MPH on hyperactive-like SIP require higher doses in SHR relative to control strains.Publicación Depression as a Risk Factor for Dementia: A Meta-Analysis(Psychiatry Online, 2023-12-19) Fernández Fernández, Roberto; Ibias Martín, Javier; Maciá Antón, María AraceliDementia is a syndrome characterized by the deterioration of cognitive function beyond what is expected. The increased risk of developing this syndrome resulting from established modifiable risk factors, such as depressive episodes, is currently a subject of interest. The aim of this study was to review the scientific evidence that addresses the relationship between depression and dementia. A bibliographic search of the PubMed and PsycInfo databases for articles published over the past 20 years was conducted with the following medical subject heading terms: depression or depressive, dementia, and incidence or cohort studies. After articles meeting the inclusion criteria were selected, relevant moderating variables were grouped as sample characteristics, methodological characteristics, extrinsic characteristics, and outcome variables. The 26 selected studies resulted in a sample comprising 1,760,262 individuals. Statistical analysis revealed a pooled relative risk for the development of dementia of 1.82 (95% CI=1.62–2.06). The primary variables evaluated were the diagnostic methods for depression and dementia and the presence of depression. Other variables, such as mean age, methodological quality of each study, follow-up time, and publication year, were also evaluated. Age was statistically but not clinically significant. No relevant publication bias or alterations in the results were found when accounting for the quality of the studies. It is recommended that new moderating variables be evaluated or that existing variables be reformulated in future studies.
