Effects of Thryptophan Hydroxylase Blockade by P-Chlorophenylalanine on Contextual Memory Reconsolidation after Training of Different Intensity. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:E2087.

Abstract
The processes of memory formation and its storage are extremely dynamic. Therefore, the determination of the nature and temporal evolution of the changes that underlie the molecular mechanisms of retrieval and cause reconsolidation of memory is the key to understanding memory formation. Retrieval induces the plasticity, which may result in reconsolidation of the original memory and needs critical molecular events to stabilize the memory or its extinction. 4-Chloro-DL-phenylalanine (P-chlorophenylalanine-PCPA) depresses the most limiting enzyme of serotonin synthesis the tryptophan hydroxylase. It is known that PCPA reduces the serotonin content in the brain up to 10 times in rats (see Methods). We hypothesized that the PCPA could behave the similar way in snails and could reduce the content of serotonin in snails. Therefore, we investigated the effect of PCPA injection on contextual memory reconsolidation using a protein synthesis blocker in snails after training according to two protocols of different intensities. The results obtained in training according to the first protocol using five electrical stimuli per day for 5 days showed that reminding the training environment against the background of injection of PCPA led to a significant decrease in contextual memory. At the same time, the results obtained in training according to the second protocol using three electrical stimuli per day for 5 days showed that reminding the training environment against the injection of PCPA did not result in a significant change in contextual memory. The obtain results allowed us to conclude that the mechanisms of processes developed during the reconsolidation of contextual memory after a reminding depend both on the intensity of learning and on the state of the serotonergic system.

Abstract
AbstractObjectives: A significant number of depressed individuals experience inadequate benefit from long-term antidepressant use. This paper investigates the hypothesis that in some individuals persistent use of antidepressants may be prodepressant.Methods: Literature regarding the effect of long-term use of antidepressants was reviewed by searching PubMed and Ovid data bases with terms: antidepressant tachyphylaxis, treatment-resistant depression, chronic depression and antidepressant tolerance.Results: Antidepressant treatment-resistant patients frequently had a positive initial response to antidepressants. When resistance appeared, initial increases in dose or medication changes usually resulted in transient improvement. Eventually, the episodic course of the original depressive illness was replaced with a continuous, unresponsive depressive syndrome. We propose the term tardive dysphoria to describe this phenomenon.Conclusions: The phenomenon of antidepressantinduced depression, or tardive dysphoria, needs to be experimentally examined in blinded, randomised antidepressant discontinuation studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The regeneration and repair of damaged neuronal networks is a difficult process to study in vivo, leading to the development of multiple in vitro models and techniques for studying nerve injury. Here we describe an approach for generating a well-defined subcellular neurite injury in a microfluidic device. APPROACH A defined laminar stream of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was used to damage selected portions of neurites of individual neurons. The somata and neurites unaffected by the SDS stream remained viable, thereby enabling the study of neuronal regeneration. MAIN RESULTS By using well-characterized neurons from Aplysia californica cultured in vitro, we demonstrate that our approach is useful in creating neurite damage, investigating neurotrophic factors, and monitoring somata migration during regeneration. Supplementing the culture medium with acetylcholinesterase (AChE) or Aplysia hemolymph facilitated the regeneration of the peptidergic Aplysia neurons within 72 h, with longer (p < 0.05) and more branched (p < 0.05) neurites than in the control medium. After the neurons were transected, their somata migrated; intriguingly, for the control cultures, the migration direction was always away from the injury site (7/7). In the supplemented cultures, the number decreased to 6/8 in AChE and 4/8 in hemolymph, with reduced migration distances in both cases. SIGNIFICANCE The SDS transection approach is simple and inexpensive, yet provides flexibility in studying neuroregeneration, particularly when it is important to make sure there are no retrograde signals from the distal segments affecting regeneration. Neurons are known to not only be under tension but also balanced in terms of force, and the balance is obviously disrupted by transection. Our experimental platform, verified with Aplysia, can be extended to mammalian systems, and help us gain insight into the role that neurotrophic factors and mechanical tension play during neuronal regeneration.

J Morphol 2012; 273:776-90.

Abstract
The database on neurotransmitter distribution during central nervous system development of cephalopod mollusks is still scarce. We describe the ontogeny of serotonergic (5-HT-ir) and FMRFamide-like immunoreactive (Fa-lir) neurons in the central nervous system of the benthic Octopus vulgaris and Fa-lir distribution in the pelagic Argonauta hians. Comparing our data to previous studies, we aim at revealing shared immunochemical domains among coleoid cephalopods, i.e., all cephalopods except nautiluses. During development of O. vulgaris, 5-HT-ir and Fa-lir elements occur relatively late, namely during stage XII, when the brain neuropils are already highly differentiated. In stage XII-XX individuals, Fa-lir cell somata are located in the middle and posterior subesophageal mass and in the optic, posterior basal, and superior buccal lobes. 5-HT is predominately expressed in cell somata of the superior buccal, anterior basal, and optic lobes, as well as in the subesophageal mass. The overall population of Fa-lir neurons is larger than the one expressing 5-HT. Fa-lir elements are distributed throughout homologous brain areas of A. hians and O. vulgaris. We identified neuronal subsets with similar cell number and immunochemical phenotype in coleoids. These are located in corresponding brain regions of developmental stages and adults of O. vulgaris, A. hians, and the decapod squid Idiosepius notoides. O. vulgaris and I. notoides exhibit numerous 5-HT-ir cell somata in the superior buccal lobes but none or very few in the inferior buccal lobes. The latter have previously been homologized to the gastropod buccal ganglia, which also lack 5-HT-ir cell somata in euthyneuran gastropods. Among coleoids, 5-HT-ir neuronal subsets, which are located ventrally to the lateral anterior basal lobes and in the anterior middle subesophageal mass, are candidates for homologous subsets. Contrary to I. notoides, octopods exhibit Fa-lir cell somata ventrally to the brachial lobes and 5-HT-ir cell somata close to the stellate ganglia.

Abstract
There is increasing awareness that, in some cases, long-term use of antidepressant drugs (AD) may enhance the biochemical vulnerability to depression and worsen its long-term outcome and symptomatic expression, decreasing both the likelihood of subsequent response to pharmacological treatment and the duration of symptom-free periods. A review of literature suggesting potential side effects during long treatment with antidepressant drugs was performed. Studies were identified electronically using the following databases: Medline, Cinahl, PsychInfo, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library. Each database was searched from its inception date to April 2010 using "tolerance", "withdrawal", "sensitization", "antidepressants" and "switching" as key words. Further, a manual search of the psychiatric literature has been performed looking for articles pointing to paradoxical effects of antidepressant medications. Clinical evidence has been found indicating that even though antidepressant drugs are effective in treating depressive episodes, they are less efficacious in recurrent depression and in preventing relapse. In some cases, antidepressants have been described inducing adverse events such as withdrawal symptoms at discontinuation, onset of tolerance and resistance phenomena and switch and cycle acceleration in bipolar patients. Unfavorable long-term outcomes and paradoxical effects (depression inducing and symptomatic worsening) have also been reported. All these phenomena may be explained on the basis of the oppositional model of tolerance. Continued drug treatment may recruit processes that oppose the initial acute effect of a drug. When drug treatment ends, these processes may operate unopposed, at least for some time and increase vulnerability to relapse. Antidepressant drugs are crucial in the treatment of major depressive episodes. However, appraisal and testing of the oppositional model of tolerance may yield important insights as to long-term treatment and achievement of enduring effects.

Abstract
Cephalopods are unique among mollusks in exhibiting an elaborate central nervous system (CNS) and remarkable cognitive abilities. Despite a profound knowledge of the neuroanatomy and neurotransmitter distribution in their adult CNS, little is known about the expression of neurotransmitters during cephalopod development. Here, we identify the first serotonin-immunoreactive (5-HT-ir) neurons during ontogeny and describe the establishment of the 5-HT system in the pygmy squid, Idiosepius notoides. Neurons that are located dorsally to each optic lobe are the first to express 5-HT, albeit only when the lobular neuropils are already quite elaborated. Later, 5-HT is expressed in almost all lobes, with most 5-HT-ir cell somata appearing in the subesophageal mass. Further lobes with numerous 5-HT-ir cell somata are the subvertical and posterior basal lobes and the optic and superior buccal lobes. Hatching squids possess more 5-HT-ir neurons, although the proportions between the individual brain lobes remain the same. The majority of 5-HT-ir cell somata appears to be retained in the adult CNS. The overall distribution of 5-HT-ir elements within the CNS of adult I. notoides resembles that of adult Octopus vulgaris and Sepia officinalis. The superior frontal lobe of all three species possesses few or no 5-HT-ir cell somata, whereas the superior buccal lobe comprises many cell somata. The absence of 5-HT-ir cell somata in the inferior buccal lobes of cephalopods and the buccal ganglia of gastropods may constitute immunochemical evidence of their homology. This integrative work forms the basis for future studies comparing molluscan, lophotrochozoan, ecdysozoan, and vertebrate brains.

Abstract
Nervous systems are capable of structural adjustments. Such plastic changes also occur in the auditory system of the locust Schistocerca gregaria in which a deafferentation leads to compensatory mechanisms, such as collateral sprouting of interneurons. In this study we further investigated lesion related changes in the major auditory neuropil, the median ventral association center (mVAC) of the metathoracic ganglion. The auditory sensory organ of adult locusts was unilaterally extirpated and the mVAC was histologically and immunocytochemically analyzed until 20 days postoperative. Measurements of the neuropil area in transverse sections showed a decrease in size. The putative transmitter of the afferents, acetylcholine, was investigated by acetylcholinesterase histochemistry. Comparisons of staining intensities in the intact and deafferentated mVAC indicated that the amount of acetylcholinesterase in the deafferentated mVAC decreased shortly after the operation. Both, the decreases in size of the mVAC as well as that in acetylcholinesterase histochemistry were only less than 10% compared to the controls. The immunoreactivity against the neurotransmitters gamma-amino butyric acid and serotonin was not influenced by the deafferentation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antidepressants administered to bipolar subjects may induce manias, mixed states, or rapid cycling. More recently, we have noted that long-term use of antidepressants may induce a chronic dysphoric, irritable state. METHOD A case series is presented in which six type I bipolar subjects receiving antidepressants continuously for several years developed chronic irritable dysphoria. RESULTS A triad of dysphoric mood, irritability, and middle insomnia that is frequently associated with occupational and social dysfunction can occur in some bipolar patients receiving antidepressants for at least 3 years. Typically, initial treatments with antidepressants for the index episode were effective. Over time, depressive symptoms returned and would transiently improve with dose increase or change of agents. Ultimately, the dysphoria and associated symptoms became chronic and resulted in dysfunction. Concomitant mood stabilizer did not appear to alter this pattern. Discontinuation of antidepressants was associated with a slow and gradual improvement in these symptoms over the ensuing year. CONCLUSION Additional studies are required to investigate safety of long-term use of antidepressants in bipolar illness.

Abstract
Gastropod research is providing many insights into mechanisms of neural regeneration. These observations were made possible by the pioneering work of individuals who described the nervous systems of gastropods, mapped prominent neurons and determined their roles and connections, and developed the techniques for culturing them. This information has allowed questions about injury responses, target selection, and pathway cues to be explored at the level of individually identified neurons. Because of gastropod studies, more is known about axon sealing, growth cone formation and behavior, signals that travel from the site of axotomy to the soma, and the second messengers that are activated there. The responses in neurons and non-neuronal cells during neural development and injury are coordinated by chemical messenger systems that are highly conserved, including neurotransmitters, cytokines, and neurotrophins. The nervous system is modified in learning paradigms by some of the same messenger systems activated by injury, because learning and injury both challenge neurons to change. The conservation of basic mechanisms that coordinate neuronal plasticity allows us to approach basic questions in relatively simple nervous systems with reasonable confidence that the findings will be relevant for other nervous systems, including possible applications to the mammalian nervous system.

Abstract
Recent attention has been focused on the involvement of serotonin (5-HT) in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia and its role in mediating antipsychotic drug effects. There are two reasons for the new emphasis: the tremendous success of the so-called "atypical" antipsychotic drugs (a common feature of which is their high affinity for specific 5-HT receptor subtypes); and the elucidation of a complex family of 5-HT receptors whose function and pharmacology is only beginning to be understood. This paper will review the evidence that pertains to the role of 5-HT in mediating antipsychotic drug effects. The interaction of dopamine and 5-HT systems will be reviewed, and the mechanisms of action of atypical antipsychotic drugs will be evaluated in this context. The impact of serotonin on neurodevelopment, and the involvement of serotonin in the psychotomimetic and psychotogenic properties of hallucinogens, will be discussed. Together, these facts will be placed into the context of changes in serotonergic function in schizophrenia.

Abstract
As a result of previous studies using hypergravity (centrifuge) or virtual microgravity (clinostat), it was proposed that gravity was involved in embryonic development, i.e., in the establishment of the embryonic polarities and the body plan pattern which subsequently direct morphogenesis and organogenesis of the central nervous system and of sensory organs. Recent experiments were performed in space using sounding rockets and orbiting space-modules to ascertain whether gravity is indeed required for embryogenesis in Invertebrates and Vertebrates. Eggs fertilised in vivo or in vitro in microgravity showed some abnormalities during embryonic development but were able to regulate and produce nearly normal larvae.
