Abstract
The subthalamic nucleus (STN) houses a dense cluster of glutamatergic neurons that play a central role in the functional dynamics of the basal ganglia, a group of subcortical structures involved in the control of motor behaviors. Numerous anatomical, electrophysiological, neurochemical and behavioral studies have reported that serotonergic neurons from the midbrain raphe nuclei modulate the activity of STN neurons. Here, we describe this serotonergic innervation and the nature of the regulation exerted by serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) on STN neuron activity. This regulation can occur either directly within the STN or at distal sites, including other structures of the basal ganglia or cortex. The effect of 5-HT on STN neuronal activity involves several 5-HT receptor subtypes, including 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT2C and 5-HT4 receptors, which have garnered the highest attention on this topic. The multiple regulatory effects exerted by 5-HT are thought to be modified under pathological conditions, altering the activity of the STN, or due to the benefits and side effects of treatments used for Parkinson's disease, notably the dopamine precursor l-DOPA and high-frequency STN stimulation. Originally understood as a motor center, the STN is also associated with decision making and participates in mood regulation and cognitive performance, two domains of personality that are also regulated by 5-HT. The literature concerning the link between 5-HT and STN is already important, and the functional overlap is evident, but this link is still not entirely understood. The understanding of this link between 5-HT and STN should be increased due to the possible importance of this regulation in the control of fronto-STN loops and inherent motor and non-motor behaviors.

Abstract
Dopaminergic medication for Parkinson’s disease is associated with troubling dystonia and dyskinesia and, in rodents, dopaminergic agonists likewise induce a variety of orofacial motor responses, certain of which are mimicked by serotonin2C (5-HT2C) receptor agonists. However, the neural substrates underlying these communalities and their interrelationship remain unclear. In Sprague-Dawley rats, the dopaminergic agonist, apomorphine (0.03–0.3 mg/kg) and the preferential D2/3 receptor agonist quinpirole (0.2–0.5 mg/kg), induced purposeless oral movements (chewing, jaw tremor, tongue darting). The 5-HT2C receptor antagonist 5-methyl-1-[[2-[(2-methyl-3-pyridyl)oxyl]-5-pyridyl]carbamoyl]-6-trifluoromethylindone (SB 243213) (1 mg/kg) reduced the oral responses elicited by specific doses of both agonists (0.1 mg/kg apomorphine; 0.5 mg/kg quinpirole). After having confirmed that the oral bouts induced by quinpirole 0.5 mg/kg were blocked by another 5-HT2C antagonist (6-chloro-5-methyl-1-[6-(2-methylpiridin-3-yloxy)pyridine-3-yl carbamoyl] indoline (SB 242084), 1 mg/kg), we mapped the changes in neuronal activity in numerous sub-territories of the basal ganglia using c-Fos expression. We found a marked increase of c-Fos expression in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) in combining quinpirole (0.5 mg/kg) with either SB 243213 or SB 242084. In a parallel set of electrophysiological experiments, the same combination of SB 243213/quinpirole produced an irregular pattern of discharge and an increase in the firing rate of STN neurons. Finally, it was shown that upon the electrical stimulation of the anterior cingulate cortex, quinpirole (0.5 mg/kg) increased the response of substantia nigra pars reticulata neurons corresponding to activation of the “hyperdirect” (cortico-subthalamonigral) pathway. This effect of quinpirole was abolished by the two 5-HT2C antagonists. Collectively, these results suggest that induction of orofacial motor responses by D2/3 receptor stimulation involves 5-HT2C receptor-mediated activation of the STN by recruitment of the hyperdirect (cortico-subthalamonigral) pathway.

Abstract
Abnormality of dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) function, often observed as D2R supersensitivity (D2RSS), is a commonality of schizophrenia and related psychiatric disorders in humans. Moreover, virtually all psychotherapeutic agents for schizophrenia target D2R in brain. Permanent D2RSS as a feature of a new animal model of schizophrenia was first reported in 1991, and then behaviorally and biochemically characterized over the next 15-20 years. In this model of schizophrenia characterized by production of D2RSS in ontogeny, there are demonstrated alterations of signaling processes, as well as functional links between the biologic template of the animal model and ability of pharmacotherapeutics to modulate or reverse biologic and behavioral modalities toward normality. Another such animal model, featuring knockout of trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1), demonstrates D2RSS with an increase in the proportion of D2R in the high-affinity state. Currently, TAAR1 agonists are being explored as a therapeutic option for schizophrenia. There is likewise an overlay of D2RSS with substance use disorder. The aspect of adenosine A2A-D2 heteroreceptor complexes in substance use disorder is highlighted, and the association of adenosine A2A receptor antagonists in discriminative and rewarding effects of psychostimulants is outlined. In summary, these new animal models of schizophrenia have face, construct, and predictive validity, and distinct advantages over earlier models. While the review summarizes elements of D2RSS in schizophrenia per se, and its interplay with substance use disorder, a major focus is on presumed new molecular targets attending D2RSS in schizophrenia and related clinical entities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pathophysiological hypothesis underlying tic disorders in Tourette syndrome (TS) is that basal ganglia are not capable of properly filtering cortical information, leading patients with difficulties in inhibiting unwanted behaviors or impulses. One of the main challenges for furthering such a hypothesis is to find appropriate animal models summarizing some aspects of the disease. METHODS It has been established for more than 25 years in rodents that the prototypical serotonin (5-HT) agonist meta-chlorophenylpiperazine (m-CPP) elicits purposeless oral movements including chewing behavior. These bouts of oral movements, originally thought to mimic human oral dyskinesia consequent to long-term administration of antipsychotic drugs or parkinsonian tremor, could correspond to an undefined form of tics. Here, we describe the nature of the purposeless oral movements triggered by m-CPP and other agonists which could be associated with obsessive compulsive disorders. We report the pharmacology of this response with a focus on the 5-HT2C receptor subtype and the degree to which the dopaminergic and cholinergic systems are involved. The orofacial dyskinetic effects are related to the action of these compounds in associative/limbic territories of the basal ganglia, rather than sensorimotor ones, as expected from the human disease. CONCLUSION In spite of the low translational value of these oral movements, the neurobiological analysis of these oral movements could help to a better understanding of the pathophysiology of tics and compulsive disorders often cormorbid with TS.

Abstract
The classic rodent model of Parkinson's disease (PD) is produced by unilateral lesioning of pars compacta substantia nigra (SNpc) in adult rats, producing unilateral motor deficits which can be assessed by dopamine (DA) D2 receptor (D2-R) agonist induction of measurable unilateral rotations. Bilateral SNpc lesions in adult rats produce life-threatening aphagia, adipsia, and severe motor disability resembling paralysis-a PD model that is so compromised that it is seldom used. Described in this paper is a PD rodent model in which there is bilateral 99 % loss of striatal dopaminergic innervation, produced by bilateral intracerebroventricular or intracisternal 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) administration to perinatal rats. This procedure produces no lethality and does not shorten the life span, while rat pups continue to suckle through the pre-weaning period; and eat without impairment post-weaning. There is no obvious motor deficit during or after weaning, except with special testing, so that parkinsonian rats are indistinguishable from control and thus allow for behavioral assessments to be conducted in a blinded manner. L-DOPA (L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine) treatment increases DA content in striatal tissue, also evokes a rise in extraneuronal (i.e., in vivo microdialysate) DA, and is able to evoke dyskinesias. D2-R agonists produce effects similar to those of L-DOPA. In addition, effects of both D1- and D2-R agonist effects on overt or latent receptor supersensitization are amenable to study. Elevated basal levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), namely hydroxyl radical, occurring in dopaminergic denervated striatum are suppressed by L-DOPA treatment. Striatal serotoninergic hyperinnervation ensuing after perinatal dopaminergic denervation does not appear to interfere with assessments of the dopaminergic system by L-DOPA or D1- or D2-R agonist challenge. Partial lesioning of serotonin fibers with a selective neurotoxin either at birth or in adulthood is able to eliminate serotoninergic hyperinnervation and restore the normal level of serotoninergic innervation. Of all the animal models of PD, that produced by perinatal 6-OHDA lesioning provides the most pronounced destruction of nigrostriatal neurons, thus representing a model of severe PD, as the neurochemical outcome resembles the status of severe PD in humans but without obvious motor deficits.

Abstract
The neonatally 6-hydroxydopamine (n6-OHDA)-lesioned rat has been the standard for 40 years, as an animal model of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Rats so lesioned during postnatal ontogeny are characterized by ~99 % destruction of dopaminergic nerves in pars compacta substantia nigra, with comparable destruction of the nigrostriatal tract and lifelong ~99 % dopaminergic denervation of striatum, with lesser destructive effect on the ventral tegmental nucleus and associated lesser dopaminergic denervation of nucleus accumbens and prefrontal cortex. As a consequence of striatal dopaminergic denervation, reactive serotoninergic hyperinnervation of striatum ensues. The striatal extraneuronal milieu of DA and serotonin is markedly altered. Also, a variety of sensitization changes occur for dopaminergic D1 and D2 receptors, and for serotoninergic receptors. Behaviorally, these rats in adulthood display spontaneous hyperlocomotor activity, attentional deficits, and cognitive impairment-all of which are acutely attenuated by the psychostimulants amphetamine (AMPH) and methylphenidate (MPH) (i.e., opposite to the acute effects of AMPH and MPH in intact control rats). The acute behavioral effects of AMPH and MPH in intact and lesioned rats are analogous to their respective acute effects in non-ADHD and in ADHD humans. The neurochemical template of brain, and behavioral series of changes in n6-OHDA-lesioned rats, is described in the review. Despite the fact that nigrostriatal damage is not an underlying pathophysiological process of human ADHD (i.e., lacking construct validity), the described animal model has face validity (behavioral profile) and predictive validity (mirror of ADHD/MPH effects, as well as putative and new ADHD treatment effects). Also described in this review is a modification of the n6-OHDA rat, produced by adulthood partial lesioning of the serotoninergic fiber overgrowth. This ADHD model has even more accentuated hyperlocomotor and attentional deficits, counteracted by AMPH-thus providing a more robust means of animal modeling of ADHD. The n6-OHDA rat as a model of ADHD continues to be important in the search for new ADHD treatments.

Perinatal Treatments with the Dopamine D₂-Receptor Agonist Quinpirole Produces Permanent D₂-Receptor Supersensitization: a Model of Schizophrenia. Neurochem Res 2015; 41:183-92.

Abstract
Repeated daily treatments of perinatal rats with the dopamine D2-receptor (D2-R) agonist quinpirole for a week or more produces the phenomenon of 'priming'-gradual but long-term sensitization of D2-R. In fact a daily dose of quinpirole as low as 50 µg/kg/day is adequate for sensitizing D2-R. Primed rats as neonates and in adolescence, when acutely treated with quinpirole display enhanced eating/gnawing/nursing on dams, also horizontal locomotor activity. Between 3 and 5 weeks of age, acute quinpirole treatment of primed rats produces profound vertical jumping with paw treading-a behavior that is not observed in control rats. At later ages acute quinpirole treatment is associated with enhanced yawning, a D2-R-associated behavior. This long-term D2-R supersensitivity is believed to be life-long, despite the relatively brief period of D2-R priming near the time of birth. D2-R supersensitivity is not associated with an increase in the number or affinity of D2-R, as assessed in the striatum of rats; nor is it induced with the D3-R agonist 7-OH-DPAT. However, quinpirole-induced D2-R supersensitivity is associated with cognitive deficits, also a deficit in pre-pulse inhibition and in neurotrophic factors, and low levels of the transcript regulator of G-protein signaling (RGS) RGS9 in brain; and acute reversal of these alterations by the antipsychotic agent olanzapine. In sum, rats ontogenetically D2-R supersensitized have face validity, construct validity and predictive ability for schizophrenia.

Abstract
Tardive dyskinesia (TD), first appearing in humans after introduction of the phenothiazine class of antipsychotics in the 1950s, is now recognized as an abnormality resulting predominately by long-term block of dopamine (DA) D2 receptors (R). TD is thus reproduced in primates and rodents by chronic administration of D2-R antagonists. Through a series of studies predominately since the 1980s, it has been shown in rodent modeling of TD that when haloperidol or other D2-R antagonist is added to drinking water, rats develop spontaneous oral dyskinesias, vacuous chewing movements (VCMs), after ~3 months, and this TD is associated with an increase in the number of striatal D2-R. This TD persists for the duration of haloperidol administration and another ~2 months after haloperidol withdrawal. By neonatally lesioning dopaminergic nerves in brain in neonatal rats with 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA), it has been found that TD develops sooner, at ~2 months, and also is accompanied by a much higher number of VCMs in these haloperidol-treated lesioned rats, and the TD persists lifelong after haloperidol withdrawal, but is not associated with an increased D2-R number in the haloperidol-withdrawn phase. TD apparently is related in part to supersensitization of both D1-R and serotoninergic 5-HT2-R, which is also a typical outcome of neonatal 6-OHDA (n6-OHDA) lesioning. Testing during the haloperidol-withdrawn phase in n6-OHDA rats displaying TD reveals that receptor agonists and antagonists of a host of neuronal phenotypic classes have virtually no effect on spontaneous VCM number, except for 5-HT2-R antagonists which acutely abate the incidence of VCMs in part. Extrapolating to human TD, it appears that (1) 5-HT2-R supersensitization is the crucial alteration accounting for persistence of TD, (2) dopaminergic-perhaps age-related partial denervation-is a risk factor for the development of TD, and (3) 5-HT2-R antagonists have the therapeutic potential to alleviate TD, particularly if/when an antipsychotic D2-R blocker is withdrawn.

Serotoninergic and dopaminergic modulation of cortico-striatal circuit in executive and attention deficits induced by NMDA receptor hypofunction in the 5-choice serial reaction time task. Front Neural Circuits 2014; 8:58.

Abstract
Executive functions are an emerging propriety of neuronal processing in circuits encompassing frontal cortex and other cortical and subcortical brain regions such as basal ganglia and thalamus. Glutamate serves as the major neurotrasmitter in these circuits where glutamate receptors of NMDA type play key role. Serotonin and dopamine afferents are in position to modulate intrinsic glutamate neurotransmission along these circuits and in turn to optimize circuit performance for specific aspects of executive control over behavior. In this review, we focus on the 5-choice serial reaction time task which is able to provide various measures of attention and executive control over performance in rodents and the ability of prefrontocortical and striatal serotonin 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A, and 5-HT2C as well as dopamine D1- and D2-like receptors to modulate different aspects of executive and attention disturbances induced by NMDA receptor hypofunction in the prefrontal cortex. These behavioral studies are integrated with findings from microdialysis studies. These studies illustrate the control of attention selectivity by serotonin 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C, and dopamine D1- but not D2-like receptors and a distinct contribution of these cortical and striatal serotonin and dopamine receptors to the control of different aspects of executive control over performance such as impulsivity and compulsivity. An association between NMDA antagonist-induced increase in glutamate release in the prefrontal cortex and attention is suggested. Collectively, this review highlights the functional interaction of serotonin and dopamine with NMDA dependent glutamate neurotransmission in the cortico-striatal circuitry for specific cognitive demands and may shed some light on how dysregulation of neuronal processing in these circuits may be implicated in specific neuropsychiatric disorders.

Abstract
Data from many experiments has shown that serotonin2C (5-HT2C) receptor plays a role in the control of orofacial activity in rodents. Purposeless oral movements can be elicited either by agonists or inverse agonists implying a tight control exerted by the receptor upon oral activity. The effects of agonists has been related to an action of these drugs in the subthalamic nucleus and the striatum, the two input structures for cortical efferents to the basal ganglia, a group of subcortical structures involved in the control of motor behaviors. The oral effects of agonists are dramatically enhanced in case of chronic blockade of central dopaminergic transmission induced by neuroleptics or massive destruction of dopamine neurons. The mechanisms involved in the hypersensitized oral responses to 5-HT2C agonists are not clear and deserve additional studies. Indeed, while the oral behavior triggered by 5-HT2C drugs would barely correspond to the dyskinesia observed in humans, the clinical data have consistently postulated that 5-HT2C receptors could be involved in these aberrant motor manifestations.

Abstract
Serotonin2C (5-HT2C) receptors are expressed in the basal ganglia, a group of subcortical structures involved in the control of motor behaviour, mood and cognition. These receptors are mediating the effects of 5-HT throughout different brain areas via projections originating from midbrain raphe nuclei. A growing interest has been focusing on the function of 5-HT2C receptors in the basal ganglia because they may be involved in various diseases of basal ganglia function notably those associated with chronic impairment of dopaminergic transmission. 5-HT2C receptors act on numerous types of neurons in the basal ganglia, including dopaminergic, GABAergic, glutamatergic or cholinergic cells. Perhaps inherent to their peculiar molecular properties, the modality of controls exerted by 5-HT2C receptors over these cell populations can be phasic, tonic (dependent on the 5-HT tone) or constitutive (a spontaneous activity without the presence of the ligand). These controls are functionally organized in the basal ganglia: they are mainly localized in the input structures and preferentially distributed in the limbic/associative territories of the basal ganglia. The nature of these controls is modified in neuropsychiatric conditions such as Parkinson's disease, tardive dyskinesia or addiction. Most of the available data indicate that the function of 5-HT2C receptor is enhanced in cases of chronic alterations of dopamine neurotransmission. The review illustrates that 5-HT2C receptors play a role in maintaining continuous controls over the basal ganglia via multiple diverse actions. We will discuss their interest for treatments aimed at ameliorating current pharmacotherapies in schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease or drugs abuse.

Abstract
This study examined in naive or hemiparkinsonian rats the effect of various serotonin 2C (5-HT(2C)) receptor ligands differing in their intrinsic activity at 5-HT(2C) receptors on purposeless oral movements, a motor response integrated in the basal ganglia. Intraperitoneal administration of a non-selective [meta-chlorophenylpiperazine (m-CPP) 0.1-3 mg/kg], preferential [S-2-(6-chloro-5-fluoroindol-1-yl)-1-methylethylamine, Ro60-0175, 0.1-3 mg/kg] or selective [(7bR,10aR)-1,2,3,4,8,9,10,10a-octahydro-7bH-cyclopenta-[b][1,4]diazepino[6,7,1hi]indole, WAY163909, 0.3-10 mg/kg] 5-HT(2C) agonists enhanced oral bouts in naive rats. The 5-HT(2C) inverse agonists SB206553 [1-20 mg/kg; 5-methyl-1-(3-pyridylcarbamoyl)-1,2,3,5-tetrahydropyrrolo[2,3-f]indole] and S32006 [1-20 mg/kg; N-pyridin-3-yl-1,2-dihydro-3H-benzo[e]indole-3-carboxamide], but not the 5-HT(2C) antagonist SB243213 [1-10 mg/kg; 5-methyl-1-[[2-[(2-methyl-3-pyridyl)oxy]-5-pyridyl]carbamoyl]-6-trifluoromethylindoline], likewise dose-dependently enhanced oral movements. The effects induced by preferential 5-HT(2C) agonists and inverse agonists, but not by the cholinomimetic drug pilocarpine (5 mg/kg), were abolished by SB243213 underpinning its specificity. S32006-induced oral bouts was unaffected by the 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine lesions of 5-HT neurons. Nigrostriatal dopaminergic lesions potentiated oral effects induced by the agonists Ro60-0175 (3 mg/kg) and WAY163909 (1 mg/kg), but not by the inverse agonist SB206553 (10 mg/kg). The effect of Ro60-0175 in dopamine-lesioned rats was suppressed by SB243213. These data show that 5-HT(2C) agonists and full inverse agonists (but not neutral antagonists) perturb oral activity in rodents, paralleling studies of common antidepressant, anxiolytic and antipsychotic properties. The differential sensitivity of their actions to depletion of dopamine suggests recruitment of different contrasting neural mechanisms in the basal ganglia.

Abstract
Lesions of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons as seen in Parkinson's disease (PD) increase orofacial responses to serotonergic (5-HT) agonists in rodents. Although this response to 5-HT agonists has been related to aberrant signalling in the basal ganglia, a group a subcortical structures involved in the control of motor behaviours, it deserves additional studies with respect to the specific loci involved. Using measurements of orofacial activity, as well as single-cell recordings in vivo, we have studied the role of the entopeduncular nucleus (EPN; equivalent to the internal globus pallidus of primates), an output structure of basal ganglia, in the hypersensitized responses to a 5-HT agonist in sham- or unilaterally dopamine-depleted rats. Intra-EPN injections of Ro 60-0175 (0.3 and 1 μg/100 nl) promoted robust oral movements in 6-OHDA rats without affecting oral activity in sham-depleted rats. Peripheral administration of Ro 60-0175 (3 mg/kg ip) decreased EPN neuronal firing rate in 6-OHDA rats compared to sham-depleted rats. Such an effect was also observed when the agonist (0.2 μg/20 nl) was locally applied onto EPN neurons. These data demonstrate the contribution of EPN to hypersensitized responses to 5-HT agonists in a rat model of PD.

Abstract
RATIONAL Prefrontal cortex (PFC) and dorsal striatum are part of the neural circuit critical for executive attention. The relationship between 5-HT and aspects of attention and executive control is complex depending on experimental conditions and the level of activation of different 5-HT receptors within the nuclei of corticostriatal circuitry. OBJECTIVE The present study investigated which 5-HT(2A) and 5-HT(2C) receptors in the dorsomedial-striatum (dm-STR) contribute to executive attention deficit induced by blockade of NMDA receptors in the PFC. MATERIALS AND RESULTS Executive attention was assessed by the five-choice serial reaction time task (5-CSRTT), which provides indices of attention (accuracy) and those of executive control over performance such as premature (an index of impulsivity) and perseverative responding. The effects of targeted infusion in dm-STR of 100 and 300 ng/μl doses of the selective 5-HT(2A) antagonist M100907 and 1 and 3 μg/μl doses of 5-HT(2C) agonist Ro60-0175 was examined in animals injected with 50 ng/μl dose of a competitive NMDA receptor antagonist 3-(R)-2-carboxypiperazin-4-phosphonic acid (CPP) in the mPFC. Blockade of NMDA receptors impaired accuracy as well as executive control as shown by increased premature and perseverative responding. The CPP-induced premature and perseverative over-responding were dose-dependently prevented by both M100907 and Ro60-0175. Both drugs partially removed the CPP-induced accuracy deficit but only at the highest dose tested. CONCLUSIONS It is suggested that in the dorsal striatum, 5-HT by an action on 5-HT(2A) and 5-HT(2C) receptors may integrate the glutamate corticostriatal inputs critical for different aspects of the 5-CSRT task performance.

Abstract
Serotonin2C (5-HT(2C)) receptors act in the basal ganglia, a group of sub-cortical structures involved in motor behavior, where they are thought to modulate oral activity and participate in iatrogenic motor side-effects in Parkinson's disease and Schizophrenia. Whether abnormal movements initiated by 5-HT(2C) receptors are directly consequent to dysfunctions of the motor circuit is uncertain. In the present study, we combined behavioral, immunohistochemical and extracellular single-cell recordings approaches in rats to investigate the effect of the 5-HT(2C) agonist Ro-60-0175 respectively on orofacial dyskinesia, the expression of the marker of neuronal activity c-Fos in basal ganglia and the electrophysiological activity of substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) neuron connected to the orofacial motor cortex (OfMC) or the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). The results show that Ro-60-0175 (1 mg/kg) caused bouts of orofacial movements that were suppressed by the 5-HT(2C) antagonist SB-243213 (1 mg/kg). Ro-60-0175 (0.3, 1, 3 mg/kg) dose-dependently enhanced Fos expression in the striatum and the nucleus accumbens. At the highest dose, it enhanced Fos expression in the subthalamic nucleus, the SNr and the entopeduncular nucleus but not in the external globus pallidus. However, the effect of Ro-60-0175 was mainly associated with associative/limbic regions of basal ganglia whereas subregions of basal ganglia corresponding to sensorimotor territories were devoid of Fos labeling. Ro-60-0175 (1-3 mg/kg) did not affect the electrophysiological activity of SNr neurons connected to the OfMC nor their excitatory-inhibitory-excitatory responses to the OfMC electrical stimulation. Conversely, Ro-60-0175 (1 mg/kg) enhanced the late excitatory response of SNr neurons evoked by the mPFC electrical stimulation. These results suggest that oral dyskinesia induced by 5-HT(2C) agonists are not restricted to aberrant signalling in the orofacial motor circuit and demonstrate discrete modifications in associative territories.

Abstract
The process of receptor supersensitivity (RSS) has a long history and is an epiphenomenon of neuronal denervation. Dopamine (DA) RSS (DARSS) similarly occurs after DA denervation, and this process is invoked in neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. From studies largely over the past 25 years, much has been learned regarding DARSS. For example, overt D1 DARSS occurs after perinatal destruction of nigrostriatal DA fibers. However, following perinatal destruction of DA innervation, the most-prominent behavioral effects of a D1 agonist are observed after a series of D1 agonist treatments--a process known as priming of D1 DA receptors. Moreover, perinatal lesioning of DA fibers produces prominent serotonin (5-HT) RSS, and in fact 5-HT RSS appears to modulate D1 DA RSS. In rodents, receptor supersensitization by these means appears to be irreversible. In contrast to the observed D1 DARSS, D2 DARSS apparently does not occur after perinatal DA denervation. Also, while repeated D1 agonist treatment of intact rats has no observable effect, repeated D2 agonist treatments, during or after the ontogenetic phase, produces prominent life-long D2 RSS. The process may have an association with substance abuse. Therefore, production of D1 and D2 DARSS occurs by different means and under different circumstances, and in association with perhaps different neuronal phenotypes, and with greater incidence in either intact (D2) or DA-lesioned counterparts (D1). The physiological consequence of RSS are multiple.

Abstract
Previous studies in the auditory cortex of Mongolian gerbils on discrimination learning of the direction of frequency-modulated tones (FMs) revealed that long-term memory formation involves activation of the dopaminergic system, activity of the protein kinase mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), and protein synthesis. This led to the hypothesis that the dopaminergic system might modulate memory formation via regulation of mTOR, which is implicated in translational control. Here, we report that the D1/D5 dopamine receptor agonist SKF-38393 substantially improved gerbils’ FM discrimination learning when administered systemically or locally into the auditory cortex shortly before, shortly after, or 1 day before conditioning. Although acquisition performance during initial training was normal, the discrimination of FMs was enhanced during retraining performed hours or days after agonist injection compared with vehicle-injected controls. The D1/D5 receptor antagonist SCH-23390, the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin, and the protein synthesis blocker anisomycin suppressed this effect. By immunohistochemistry, D1 dopamine receptors were identified in the gerbil auditory cortex predominantly in the infragranular layers. Together, these findings suggest that in the gerbil auditory cortex dopaminergic inputs regulate mTOR-mediated, protein synthesis-dependent mechanisms, thus controlling for hours or days the consolidation of memory required for the discrimination of complex auditory stimuli.

Abstract
For more than 50 years, heavy metal exposure during pre- or post-natal ontogeny has been known to produce long-lived hyperactivity in rodents. Global brain injury produced by neonatal hypoxia also produced hyperactivity, as did (mainly) hippocampal injury produced by ontogenetic exposure to X-rays, and (mainly) cerebellar injury produced by the ontogenetic treatments with the antimitotic agent methylazoxymethanol or with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). More recently, ontogenetic exposure to nicotine has been implicated in childhood hyperactivity. Because attention deficits most often accompany the hyperactivity, all of the above treatments have been used as models of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, the causation of childhood hyperactivity remains unknown. Neonatal 6-OHDA-induced dopaminergic denervation of rodent forebrain also produces hyperactivity - and this model, or variations of it, remain the most widely-used animal model of ADHD. In all models, amphetamine (AMPH) and methylphenidate (MPH), standard treatments of childhood ADHD, typically attenuate the hyperactivity and/or attention deficit. On the basis of genetic models and the noted animal models, monoaminergic phenotypes appear to most-closely attend the behavioral dysfunctions, notably dopaminergic, noradrenergic and serotoninergic systems in forebrain (basal ganglia, nucleus accumbens, prefrontal cortex). This paper describes the various pharmacological models of ADHD and attempts to ascribe a neuronal phenotype with specific brain regions that may be associated with ADHD.

Abstract
Tardive dyskinesia (TD), a movement disorder produced by long-term treatment with a classical antipsychotic drug, is generally considered to be a disorder of dopamine (DA) systems, since classical antipsychotics are potent DA D(2) receptor blockers. Also, acute DA D(1) agonist treatment of rats is known to produce vacuous chewing movements (VCMs), a behavioral feature resembling the oral dyskinesia that is so prominent in most instances of TD. In this paper we outline a series of studies in a new animal model of TD in which DA D(1) receptor supersensitivity was produced by neonatal 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) -induced destruction of nigrostriatal DA fibers. In rats so-lesioned 5-HT receptor supersensitivity is additionally produced, and in fact 5-HT receptor antagonists attenuate enhanced DA D(1) induction of VCMs. Moreover, in 6-OHDA-lesioned rats treated with haloperidol for one year, there a 2-fold increase in numbers of VCMs (vs intact rats treated with haloperidol); and this high frequency of VCMs persists for more than 6 months after discontinuing haloperidol treatment. During this stage, 5-HT(2) receptor antagonists, but not DA D(1) receptor antagonists, attenuate the incidence of VCMs. This series of findings implicates the 5-HT neuronal phenotype in TD, and promotes 5-HT(2) receptor antagonists, more specifically 5-HT(2C) receptor antagonists, as a rational treatment approach for TD in humans.

Abstract
Repeated treatments of rats with the dopamine (DA) D2 receptor agonist quinpirole, consistently produce long-lived DA D2 receptor supersensitization, by the process that has been termed priming. Rats so-primed in ontogeny behaviorally demonstrate adulthood enhancement of low-dose quinpirole-induced yawning. Because 1) dopaminergic neurons originate in midbrain nuclei (substantia nigra and ventral tegmental area), and 2) noradrenergic neurons originate in pontine (locus coeruleus) and medullary areas, it might be presumed that these two monoaminergic systems are independent, not interdependent. However, in the present study we demonstrate that there was an attenuation of quinpirole-enhanced yawning at 8 weeks in rats that were 1) primed by repeated neonatal quinpirole HCl treatments (50 microg/kg per day SC) during the first ten days of postnatal ontogeny, and 2) lesioned at 3 days after birth with DSP-4 (N-2-chloroethyl-N-ethyl-2-bromobenzylamine hydrochloride, 50 mg/kg SC). Dose-effect curves indicated a 23-45% reduction in yawning by DSP-4 treatment of quinpirole-primed rats, acutely treated as adults with quinpirole (25, 50, or 100 microg/kg). Effectiveness of DSP-4 is reflected by the 95% and 99% reductions in norepinephrine contents of frontal cortex and hippocampus, respectively (HPLC/ED method). The findings are supportive of a modulatory role of noradrenergic fibers on dopamine receptor priming (supersensitization) in rat brain.

Abstract
RATIONALE Haloperidol is a representative of typical antipsychotics that are still in clinical use and which can lead to abnormal motor activity following repeated administration. The mechanisms underlying antipsychotic-induced dyskinesias are not well understood but are widely held to be related to excessive loss of dopamine function. In several models of dopamine hypofunction, serotonin 5-HT2C receptors have been shown to mediate vacuous chewing movements (VCM), a form of abnormal motor activity. It is well established that repeated haloperidol administration also elicits VCM, but there is no information on how repeated haloperidol administration affects 5-HT2C receptor signaling. OBJECTIVES In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that repeated daily administration of haloperidol leads to enhanced serotonin 5-HT2C receptor signaling that is associated with increased 5-HT2C-mediated VCM. METHODS Rats were treated by subcutaneous injection once daily for 21 days with either vehicle, a low dose of haloperidol (0.1 mg kg(-1) day(-1)), or a high dose of haloperidol (1.0 mg kg(-1) day(-1)). Following 1-day withdrawal, rats were either used for behavioral scoring of VCM or sacrificed for biochemical assessment of 5-HT2 receptor-mediated phospholipase C activity and radioligand binding. VCM were scored following two successive "drug" challenges. The first challenge was an injection of vehicle (0.9% saline), and the second challenge was an injection of the 5-HT2C agonist meta-chlorophenylpiperazine (1.0 mg/kg). In this manner, a measure of "spontaneous" and "5-HT2C-elicited" orofacial activity could be made while minimizing animal use. RESULTS Following 21-day haloperidol treatment at either dose, there was an increase in expression of meta-chlorophenylpiperazine-induced VCM. In a separate experiment, meta-chlorophenylpiperazine-induced VCM were shown to be mediated through 5-HT2C receptors. Striatal 5-HT2C receptor-mediated phospholipase C (PLC) activity and high-affinity agonist-labeled 5-HT2C receptors were also increased following either dose of haloperidol as compared to vehicle treatment. GTP-stimulated PLC activity and striatal Gq proteins were unchanged by haloperidol suggesting that enhanced signaling could be accounted for by alterations at the level of the receptor and not at downstream mechanisms. CONCLUSIONS Repeated daily administration of haloperidol leads to an adaptive increase in 5-HT2C signaling which may contribute to abnormal motor function associated with antipsychotic use.

Abstract
Loss of dopaminergic innervation to the striatum increases the sensitivity of dopamine (DA) D1 and serotonin (5-HT) 5-HT2 receptor signaling. Previous work from our laboratory has shown that systemic co-administration of D1 and 5-HT2 receptor agonists leads to the synergistic overexpression of striatal preprotachykinin mRNA levels in the DA-depleted, but not intact animals. In the present study, we examined this mechanism as related to locomotor behavior. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were subject to bilateral i.c.v. 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA; 200 microg in 10 microl/side) or vehicle (0.9% saline and 0.1% ascorbic acid). After 3 weeks, rats were tested for locomotor responses to bilateral intrastriatal infusions of vehicle (0.9% NaCl), the D1 agonist SKF82958 [(+/-)6-chloro-7,8-dihydroxy-3-allyl-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetra-hydro-(1H)-3-benzazepine hydrobromide; 0.1, 1.0 or 10.0 microg/side], the 5-HT2 agonist DOI [(+/-)-1-(4-iodo-2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-2-aminopropane; 0.1, 1.0 or 10.0 microg/side] or subthreshold doses of DOI and SKF82958 (0.1 microg+0.1 microg in 0.8 microl/side). Rats with DA loss demonstrated supersensitive locomotor responses to SKF82958, but not DOI. Combined administration of subthreshold SKF82958 and DOI doses (0.1 microg+0.1 microg) synergistically increased locomotor behavior only in 6-OHDA-lesioned rats. These effects were blocked by either the D1 antagonist SCH23390 3-methyl-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-7-chloro-8-hydroxy-(1H)-3-benzazepine or the 5-HT2 antagonist ritanserin (each 1.0 microg in 0.8 microl/side). The results of this study suggest that the behavioral synergy induced by local co-stimulation of D1 and 5-HT2 receptors within the 6-OHDA-lesioned striatum may lead to hyperkinesias that can occur with continued pharmacological treatment of Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
Striatal dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT) functions are altered following DA denervation. Previous research indicates that intrastriatal coadministration of D1 and 5-HT2 receptor agonists synergistically increase locomotor behavior in DA-depleted rats. In the present study, we examined whether striatal 5-HT2 mechanisms also account for supersensitive D1-mediated locomotor behavior following DA denervation. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to bilateral striatal cannulation and then received either intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) or intrastriatal 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA; 200 microg or 20 microg/side, respectively). After at least 3 weeks, i.c.v.-lesioned rats received intrastriatal infusions of the 5-HT2 receptor antagonist ritanserin (2.0 microg/side) or its vehicle (DMSO) followed by systemic SKF 82958, a D1 agonist (1.0 mg/kg, i.p.) and locomotor activity was monitored. In another experiment, intrastriatal sham and 6-OHDA-lesioned rats received bilateral intrastriatal infusions of ritanserin (2.0 microg/side) or its vehicle (DMSO) followed by intrastriatal infusions of SKF 82958 (5.0 microg/side) or vehicle (0.9% saline). Rats with DA loss demonstrated supersensitive locomotor responses to both systemic and intrastriatal SKF 82958. Ritanserin pretreatment blunted systemic SKF 82958-induced hyperlocomotion and returned intrastriatal D1-mediated hyperactivity to sham lesion levels. The results of this study suggest that striatal 5-HT2 receptors contribute to D1-mediated hyperkinesias resulting from DA loss and suggest a pharmacological target for the alleviation of dyskinesia that can develop with continued DA replacement therapy.

Abstract
The characteristic feature of neurotoxicity is a definable lesion which can account for observed deficits, corresponding to loss of nuclei or axonal fibers normally comprising a specific pathway or tract. However, with ontogenetic lesions, the operative definition fails. In rats lesioned as neonates with 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA), near-total destruction of dopamine- (DA-) containing nerves is produced, and this itself is definable. However, the most prominent feature of rats so-lesioned is the DA receptor supersensitivity (DARSS) that develops and then persists throughout the lifespan. DA D(1) receptors show overt supersensitivity to agonists producing vacuous chewing movements (VCMs), while D(1) receptors associated with locomotor activity have a latent supersensitivity that must be unmasked by repeated D(1) or D(2) agonist treatments - a 'priming' phenomenon. This D(1) DARSS is not usually associated in either a change in D(1) receptor number (B(max)) or affinity (K(d)). In contrast to D(1) DARSS, D(2) receptors are not so predictably supersensitized by a lesion of DA neurons. In reality, the permanently exaggerated response to an agonist by supersensitized receptors is per se a manifestation of neurotoxicity. Despite dramatic behavioral responses mediated by supersensitized receptors, DARSS has not been easy to correlate with enhanced production of second messengers or early response genes. Altered signaling (i.e., neuronal cross-talk) in defined pathways may represent the mechanism that produces so-called receptor supersensitization. Long-lived agonist-induced behavioral abnormality, with or without anatomic evidence of a neuronal lesion, is one of the products of DA D(1) receptor supersensitization -- itself an index of neurotoxicity.

Abstract
The loss of dopaminergic innervation of the basal ganglia, a group of subcortical regions involved in motor control, is the hallmark of Parkinson's disease. The resulting molecular and cellular alterations mediate behavioral deficits and may modify neuronal responses to other neurotransmitters. In the present study, we sought to determine the effects of chronic dopamine (DA) depletion on responses mediated by stimulation of serotonergic 2C (5-HT(2C)) receptors, a serotonergic receptor subtype present in discrete regions of the basal ganglia. Specifically, the effects of unilateral lesions of nigrostriatal DA neurons on oral dyskinesia and Fos protein expression induced by the non-selective 5-HT(2C) agonist 1-(m-chlorophenyl)piperazine (m-CPP) were examined. Confirming previous findings, both peripheral and local injections of m-CPP into the subthalamic nucleus elicited oral dyskinesia. Nigrostriatal lesions markedly enhanced oral bouts induced by peripheral but not intrasubthalamic administration of m-CPP. In intact rats, Fos expression was increased by m-CPP (1 mg/kg, i.p.) in the striatum and the subthalamic nucleus. After nigrostriatal lesions, m-CPP-induced Fos expression remained unchanged in the subthalamic nucleus but was reduced in the medial quadrants of the striatum and was markedly enhanced in the entopeduncular nucleus. These data demonstrate regionally specific alterations in behavioral and cellular responses to a serotonergic agonist in an animal model of Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
The role in spatial divided and sustained attention of D1 and D2-like dopamine (DA) receptors in the rat prelimbic medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) was investigated in a five-choice serial reaction time task. Rats were trained to detect brief flashes of light (0.5-0.25 sec) presented randomly in a spatial array of five apertures. When performance stabilized, animals received bilateral microinfusions of either the D1 DA receptor antagonist SCH 23390, the D1 DA receptor agonist SKF 38393, or the D2 DA antagonist sulpiride into the mPFC. Rats were divided into two groups, with low (<75% correct) and high (>75%) baseline levels of accuracy. Infusions of the D2 receptor antagonist sulpiride had no significant effect on any task variable. SCH 23390 (0.3 microg) selectively impaired the accuracy of attentional performance in rats in the high baseline condition. By contrast, SKF 38393 (0.06 microg) enhanced the accuracy of attentional performance in the low baseline condition, a lower dose (0.03 microg) also increasing the speed of making correct responses. Finally, the beneficial effects of SKF-383893 on choice accuracy were antagonized by SCH 23390 (1.0 microg). The results provide apparently the first demonstration of enhanced cognitive function after local administration of a D1 receptor agonist to the mPFC and suggest dissociable roles of D1 and D2 DA receptors of the mPFC in modulating attentional function.

Abstract
1. The effect of the D1 agonist SKF38393 and the 5HT2C agonist m-CPP on repetitive jaw movements (RJM) was studied in rats. Acute administration of SKF38393 and/or m-CPP induced RJM in a dose dependent manner. In rats treated with both drugs, RJM responses were about equal to the sum of those obtained with each drug alone. 2. The induction of RJM by SKF38393 was somewhat lower in rats pretreated with 5HT2C receptor antagonist, mianserin, whereas mianserin severely reduced RJM induced by m-CPP alone. 3. D1 antagonist SCH23390 inhibited SKF38393 induced RJM but had no effect on m-CPP induced chewing behavior. 4. The present study confirms earlier evidence that D1 agonists used at optimal doses for the induction of RJM do not involve the serotonergic system in a significant way. It does, however, implicate the system in the emergence of drug induced oral behavior in rats. 5. The effect of the atypical antipsychotics, clozapine, olanzapine and risperidone was studied on SKF38393 and m-CPP induced RJM. Pretreatment with the atypical antipsychotics clozapine and olanzapine inhibit SKF38393 and m-CPP induced RJM. Pretreatment with risperidone inhibits m-CPP induced oral behavior in rats while increases dose dependently SKF38393 induced RJM.
