Handling prevents and reverses cognitive deficits induced by sub-chronic phencyclidine in a model for schizophrenia in rats. Physiol Behav 2023; 263:114117. [PMID: 36781093 DOI: 10.1016/j.physbeh.2023.114117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2022] [Revised: 01/23/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/13/2023]
Abstract
Treatments for schizophrenia are not effective in ameliorating cognitive deficits. Therefore, novel therapies are needed to treat cognitive impairments associated with schizophrenia (CIAS), which are modelled in rats through administration of sub-chronic phencyclidine (scPCP). We have previously shown that enrichment via voluntary exercise prevents and reverses impairments in novel object recognition (NOR) in this model. The present study aimed to investigate if handling could prevent delay-induced NOR deficits and prevent and reverse scPCP-induced NOR deficits. Two cohorts of adult female Lister Hooded rats were used. In experiment one, handling (five minutes/day, five days/week for two weeks), took place before scPCP administration (2 mg/kg, i.p. twice-daily for seven days). NOR tests were conducted at two, four, and seven weeks post-handling with a one-minute inter-trial interval (ITI) and at five weeks post-dosing with a six-hour ITI. In experiment two, rats were handled after scPCP administration and tested immediately in the one-minute ITI NOR task and again at two weeks post-handling. In both handling regimens, the scPCP control groups failed to discriminate novelty, conversely the scPCP handled groups significantly discriminated in this task. In the 6 h ITI test, vehicle control and scPCP control failed to discriminate novelty; however, the vehicle handled and scPCP handled groups did significantly discriminate. Handling rats prevented and reversed scPCP-induced deficits and prevented delay-induced NOR deficits. These findings add to evidence that environmental enrichment is a viable treatment for cognitive deficits in rodent tests and models of relevance to schizophrenia, with potential to translate into effective treatments for CIAS.

Dissociating the effects of distraction and proactive interference on object memory through tests of novelty preference. Brain Neurosci Adv 2021; 5:23982128211003199. [PMID: 35392130 PMCID: PMC8981243 DOI: 10.1177/23982128211003199] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2020] [Accepted: 02/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Encoding information into memory is sensitive to distraction while retrieving that memory may be compromised by proactive interference from pre-existing memories. These two debilitating effects are common in neuropsychiatric conditions, but modelling them preclinically to date is slow as it requires prolonged operant training. A step change would be the validation of functionally equivalent but fast, simple, high-throughput tasks based on spontaneous behaviour. Here, we show that spontaneous object preference testing meets these requirements in the subchronic phencyclidine rat model for cognitive impairments associated with schizophrenia. Subchronic phencyclidine rats show clear memory sensitivity to distraction in the standard novel object recognition task. However, due to this, standard novel object recognition task cannot assess proactive interference. Therefore, we compared subchronic phencyclidine performance in standard novel object recognition task to that using the continuous novel object recognition task, which offers minimal distraction, allowing disease-relevant memory deficits to be assessed directly. We first determined that subchronic phencyclidine treatment did not affect whisker movements during object exploration. Subchronic phencyclidine rats exhibited the expected distraction standard novel object recognition task effect but had intact performance on the first continuous novel object recognition task trial, effectively dissociating distraction using two novel object recognition task variants. In remaining continuous novel object recognition task trials, the cumulative discrimination index for subchronic phencyclidine rats was above chance throughout, but, importantly, their detection of object novelty was increasingly impaired relative to controls. We attribute this effect to the accumulation of proactive interference. This is the first demonstration that increased sensitivity to distraction and proactive interference, both key cognitive impairments in schizophrenia, can be dissociated in the subchronic phencyclidine rat using two variants of the same fast, simple, spontaneous object memory paradigm.

Abstract
Cognitive dysfunction and negative symptoms of schizophrenia remain an unmet clinical need. Therefore, it is essential that new treatments and approaches are developed to recover the cognitive and social impairments that are seen in patients with schizophrenia. These may only be discovered through the use of carefully validated, aetiologically relevant and translational animal models. With recent renewed interest in the neurodevelopmental hypothesis of schizophrenia, postnatal administration of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonists such as phencyclidine (PCP) has been proposed as a model that can mimic aspects of schizophrenia pathophysiology. The purpose of the current review is to examine the validity of this model and compare it with the adult subchronic PCP model. We review the ability of postnatal PCP administration to produce behaviours (specifically cognitive deficits) and neuropathology of relevance to schizophrenia and their subsequent reversal by pharmacological treatments. We review studies investigating effects of postnatal PCP on cognitive domains in schizophrenia in rats. Morris water maze and delayed spontaneous alternation tasks have been used for working memory, attentional set-shifting for executive function, social novelty discrimination for selective attention and prepulse inhibition of acoustic startle for sensorimotor gating. In addition, we review studies on locomotor activity and neuropathology. We also include two studies using dual hit models incorporating postnatal PCP and two studies on social behaviour deficits following postnatal PCP. Overall, the evidence we provide supports the use of postnatal PCP to model cognitive and neuropathological disturbances of relevance to schizophrenia. To date, there is a lack of evidence to support a significant advantage of postnatal PCP over the adult subchronic PCP model and full advantage has not been taken of its neurodevelopmental component. When thoroughly characterised, it is likely that it will provide a useful neurodevelopmental model to complement other models such as maternal immune activation, particularly when combined with other manipulations to produce dual or triple hit models. However, the developmental trajectory of behavioural and neuropathological changes induced by postnatal PCP and their relevance to schizophrenia must be carefully mapped out. Overall, we support further development of dual (or triple) hit models incorporating genetic, neurodevelopmental and appropriate environmental elements in the search for more aetiologically valid animal models of schizophrenia and neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs).

Abstract
It has been suggested that the isolation rearing paradigm models certain aspects of schizophrenia symptomatology. This study aimed to investigate whether isolation rearing impairs rats' performance in two models of cognition: the novel object recognition (NOR) and attentional set-shifting tasks, tests of episodic memory and executive function, respectively. Two cohorts of female Hooded-Lister rats were used in these experiments. Animals were housed in social isolation or in groups of five from weaning, post-natal day 28. The first cohort was tested in the NOR test with inter-trial intervals (ITIs) of 1 min up to 6 h. The second cohort was trained and tested in the attentional set-shifting task. In the NOR test, isolates were only able to discriminate between the novel and familiar objects up to 1-h ITI, whereas socially reared animals remembered the familiar object up to a 4-h ITI. In the attentional set-shifting task, isolates were significantly and selectively impaired in the extra-dimensional shift phase of the task (P < 0.01). Rats reared in isolation show impaired episodic memory in the NOR task and reduced ability to shift attention between stimulus dimensions in the attentional set-shifting task. Because schizophrenic patients show similar deficits in performance in these cognitive domains, these data further support isolation rearing as a putative preclinical model of the cognitive deficits associated with schizophrenia.

Atypical antipsychotics attenuate a sub-chronic PCP-induced cognitive deficit in the novel object recognition task in the rat. Behav Brain Res 2007; 184:31-8.

Abstract
The novel object recognition (NOR) task is a paradigm employed to detect both disruption and improvement of non-spatial memory in rats. PCP (phencyclidine) may be used to model aspects of schizophrenia symptomology in rats, in particular cognitive deficits. The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of typical and atypical antipsychotics to improve a sub-chronic PCP-induced impairment in cognition using the NOR task. Female hooded-Lister rats (195+/-12 g) received either vehicle (0.9% saline twice daily) or PCP (2 mg/kg, twice daily) for 7 days followed by 7-days drug free. Haloperidol (0.05 and 0.075 mg/kg), clozapine (1 and 5mg/kg), risperidone (0.05, 0.1 and 0.2 mg/kg) or vehicle (veh, saline) was administered i.p. 30 min prior to testing. Rats completed an acquisition trial followed by an inter-trial interval of 1 min, then a retention trial. Following sub-chronic vehicle treatment, rats spent significantly (p<0.05) more time exploring the novel compared to the familiar object, an effect that was abolished in the sub-chronic PCP treated animals. Clozapine (1.0 and 5.0 mg/kg) and risperidone (0.2 mg/kg) but not haloperidol significantly attenuated the PCP-induced impairment such that animals again spent significantly more time exploring the novel compared with familiar object (p<0.05). These results support our earlier work showing that acute PCP induces a robust object recognition deficit in female rats. Clozapine and risperidone but not haloperidol showed efficacy to reverse the deficit induced by sub-chronic PCP suggesting that this test may have some validity for assessing efficacy for improvement of cognitive deficit symptoms of schizophrenia.

Abstract
Extracts of the herb St John's Wort have been shown to reduce alcohol intake in alcohol-preferring rats, but it is not known which of the constituent(s) are responsible for this effect. In this study, the effect of a crude methanolic extract of Hypericum perforatum (negligible hyperforin content) on alcohol drinking in C57BL/6J alcohol-preferring mice was compared with that of a hyperforin-rich extract (45% hyperforin) prepared by extracting the herb with supercritical carbon dioxide. The dose of the hyperforin-rich extract required to significantly reduce 10% ethanol intake (5 mg/kg) was 125-fold less than that required for the crude extract (625 mg/kg), and was comparable to the dose of fluoxetine (10 mg/kg) required to produce a similar effect. None of these agents significantly affected water intake. These results suggest that the effects of H. perforatum extracts on alcohol drinking behaviour are due to the hyperforin content of the herb rather than to other, more polar constituents. Hyperforin is an unstable compound and this study also highlights the effect of different methods of extract preparation on hyperforin content.

Abstract
Distraction osteogenesis is an effective technique for reconstruction of the congenitally deficient mandible. However, the age at which it is best performed remains under discussion. Distraction performed at an early age, while possibly allowing the face to develop with a more normal functional matrix, may entail a higher rate of complications. Additionally, it is possible that subsequent asymmetric growth of the mandible may necessitate serial distraction. To address this issue, the clinical records and cephalometric radiographs of all patients less than 48 months of age undergoing mandibular distraction at New York University Medical Center between August of 1989 and August of 1997 were examined. There was a total of 14 patients ranging in age from 19 months to 43 months. Nine patients had a diagnosis of unilateral craniofacial microsomia, three had Treacher Collins syndrome, one had Nager syndrome, and one had bilateral developmental micrognathia. The average amount of distraction was 27 mm (range, 23 to 39 mm) in unilateral cases and 24 mm in bilateral cases (range, 15 to 31 mm). The period of clinical follow-up averaged 32.6 months (range, 12 to 92 months). All patients showed significant improvement in craniofacial appearance, and in four patients, long-term tracheostomy tubes were removed. There were two major complications. In one patient with craniofacial microsomia, there was a relapse in the early postretention phase related to the presence of a dentigerous cyst. This required removal of the cyst and repeat distraction. In the patient with Nager syndrome, a coronoid ankylosis developed requiring surgical release. There were no other major complications. The scars required revision in only two of the patients. Cephalometric analysis of the patients in the study revealed a differential in the rate of growth between the affected and the unaffected side in all cases of craniofacial microsomia. The affected side always grew at a slower rate than the contralateral side after the distraction process was complete. This led to a progressive asymmetry of the rami, clinically expressed by some degree of facial asymmetry and an occlusal cant. For this reason, secondary distraction was required in one patient and is planned in a second. Initial overcorrection of the patient would seem to minimize the likelihood that secondary distraction will be necessary. Distraction osteogenesis for reconstruction of the mandible in this subset of young patients was a safe and effective technique for improving the craniofacial skeletal form and appearance, with minimal associated morbidity. Longer follow-up is necessary to assess the full impact of growth in these cases.

Abstract
This article reports our clinical experience since 1994 with rigid-motion tracking of bone fragments during craniofacial surgical procedures, using a virtual reality approach. Three noncollinear infrared diodes are fixed to the skull base. A pointer is used to register anatomic features on the patient to those on the computerized tomography-based model of the patient within a computer work station. Three diodes are then attached to each fragment just before the osteotomy is completed. Rigid motions of the fragment are thus tracked and reported to the surgeon by using virtual reality techniques. Errors in fragment positioning are reported both graphically and numerically with respect to a precomputed optimum fragment position. This guidance system allows multisegment midface osteotomies to be performed more precisely. The main problems encountered so far have been devascularization-infection and difficulties in maintaining correct position during application of rigid fixation. Devascularization-infection problems have been addressed by minimizing surgical exposure of the bone. Soft-fixation plates and temporary Kirschner wire fixation have helped with intermediate positioning, but an intraoperative mechanical positioning device would be useful in the future.

Abstract
We present a new combined approach to primary bilateral cleft lip, nose, and alveolus repair using presurgical nasoalveolar molding combined with a one-stage lip, nose, and alveolus repair. Presurgical alveolar molding is used to bring the protruding premaxilla back into proper alignment with the lateral segments in the maxillary arch. Presurgical nasal molding produces tissue expansion of the short columella and nasal lining. A coordinated surgical approach involves a one-stage repair of the lip, nose, and alveolus. The nasal repair uses a retrograde approach in which the prolabial flap and columella are reflected over the nasal dorsum by continuing the dissection behind the prolabium up the membranous septum and over the septal angle. Tissues are dissected out from between the tip cartilages, and the domes are sutured together in the midline. This method joins a new class of bilateral cleft repairs that place the primary emphasis on correction of the deformity of the nasal tip cartilages.

Abstract
This paper describes a one-stage reconstruction of the complete bilateral cleft lip, nose, and alveolus using an asymmetrically designed prolabial flap. The columella of the nose and the central lip are produced by "unwinding" the columellar and labial sections of the prolabium around a small central tab, which is used to center the junction between the lip and columella. Only two scars are produced, both of which run vertically along each philtral column. Accurate preoperative orthopedics without lip adhesion is considered essential to this repair. The principal advantage/disadvantage to the method is its asymmetrical design. If asymmetries result, they have been easily corrected. Eight consecutive cases are presented with follow-up ranging from 1.5 to 6.3 years.

Abstract
A method for generating three-dimensional landmark locations from routine biplane pairs of cephalograms was previously introduced. In this article we compare the locations thus reconstructed to the same configurations as directly recorded through a redundant network of interpoint distances measured with calipers. Six mandibular landmarks were located by both methods on each of 10 dry skulls. With the caliper distances is associated a standard error that can be estimated without explicit remeasurement by the method of "adjustment of networks" familiar from surveying. These standard errors are consistent with the remeasurement error both of the caliper measurements and of the stereolocation from cephalograms; the methods appear to have the same precision, about 0.4 mm per distance. The bias (systematic shift) of the biplane reconstructions with respect to the points used for laying down the calipers may be estimated by regressions of distance discrepancies on the direction cosines of the separations between pairs of landmarks. The caliper tips placed condylion approximately 10 mm medially and a bit forward of where we chose to reconstruct it from biplane cephalograms. The caliper locations of gonion average about 1.6 mm back of their cephalometric position, while those at menton and lower incisal edge are forward by some 1.4 mm. We conclude that the biplane reconstruction (the "three-dimensional cephalogram") is sufficiently accurate for routine clinical and surgical application.

Abstract
The Broadbent-Bolton cephalostat produces intrinsically three-dimensional information about cranial form. Yet in the clinical setting, this information has been used primarily two dimensions at a time in the separate study of lateral or posteroanterior cephalograms. In this article we demonstrate an expedient use of existing cephalostat-based data sets to derive certain analyses of three-dimensional form. The technique is essentially the same as that of the Broadbent-Bolton "Orientator," an exploitation of the geometry of the cephalostat to simulate stereophotogrammetry. The three-dimensional method supports the usual biometrics of landmark locations, and takes advantage of a normative data base that is suited for semiautomatic analysis of syndromic data. The principal drawback of the method is its inability to represent curving form in three dimensions. However, in comparison with computed tomography (CT), it involves low radiation dose, is simpler to obtain, has an available normative data base, and is more practical for quantitative or long-term serial analysis.

Abstract
A computer program is described which aids the clinician in planning craniofacial surgical procedures. It operates on a three-dimensional landmark data base derived by combining posteroanterior and lateral cephalograms from the patient and from the Bolton normative standards. A three-dimensional surgical simulation program based on computerized tomographic (CT) data is also described which can be linked to the cephalometrically based program. After the clinician has selected the number and type of osteotomies to be performed on the patient, an automated optimization program computes the postoperative positions of these fragments which best fit the appropriate normal cephalometric form. The clinician then interactively modifies the design to account for such variables as bone-graft resorption, relapse tendency, occlusal disparities, and the condition of the overlying soft-tissue matrix. Osteotomy movement specifications are easily transferred between the CT-based and the cephalometrically based surgical simulation programs. This allows the automated positioning step to be performed on the cephalometrically based model while the interactive step is performed using the superior image provided by the CT-based model.

Abstract
A prospective clinical and cephalometric study was conducted on 12 patients under the age of 12 years undergoing Le Fort III advancement with the following findings: 1. There was a remarkable degree of postoperative skeletal stability of the midfacial segment. 2. Disharmony in jaw relationship (anterior crossbite) observed during the period of longitudinal postoperative study could be attributed to expected mandibular development. 3. In some patients, growth and development of the maxilla in a forward and downward direction were documented after Le Fort III advancement. The authors recommend that a Le Fort III advancement can be safely performed at approximately age 4 without a deleterious effect on midfacial development in the patient with craniofacial dysostosis.

Abstract
A prospective review is presented of 50 patients with one of the craniofacial synostosis syndromes who underwent early interventive craniofacial surgical correction (average age 7.6 months at time of surgery). The study has demonstrated the efficacy and safety of the techniques when employed in the infant. Satisfactory cranio-orbital form was achieved in the majority of the patients, although 10 patients required secondary surgery because of sutural refusion or the development of turricephaly or calvarial contour irregularities. Despite earlier hopes, this surgery did not result in the development of satisfactory occlusal relationships and midfacial form in the craniofacial dysostosis group (Crouzon's, Apert's, etc.). Based on this clinical experience, a surgical treatment plan is presented for the newborn with craniofacial synostosis.

Abstract
A protocol for cephalometric analysis is presented to enable the clinician to evaluate the bony face by subdividing it into four components: 1. Vertical facial measurements 2. Horizontal midface measurements 3. Horizontal lower face measurements 4. Dental measurements. The clinician is encouraged to view the components alone and together. Caution is advised in deriving the treatment plans solely from the cephalometric analysis. Emphasis is placed on integrating the data derived from the cephalometric analysis with the clinical picture, history, dental model analysis, soft-tissue analysis, and patient desires.
