Program Overview/Statement of Need
The annual meeting of the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology
is designed to meet the educational needs of ACNP members and invited nonmember colleagues who are engaged at the leading edge of clinical and basic
science research on psychiatric disorders and their management. ACNP members
have been among the leaders in identifying underlying mechanisms for these
disorders and developing new treatment strategies. To continue and expand the

Autism Therapeutics
Jeremy Veenstra-VanderWeele
Vanderbilt University
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder
affecting approximately 1% of children. ASD is defined by core symptoms in two
domains: negative symptoms of impairment in social and communication function,
and positive symptoms of restricted and repetitive behaviors. Available treatments
are inadequate for treating both core symptoms and associated conditions. Twin
studies indicate that ASD susceptibility has a large heritable component. Genetic
studies have identified promising leads, with converging insights emerging from
single gene disorders that bear ASD features, with particular interest in mTORlinked synaptic plasticity mechanisms. Mouse models of these disorders are
revealing not only opportunities to model behavioral perturbations across species
but also evidence of postnatal rescue of brain and behavioral phenotypes. An
intense search for ASD biomarkers has consistently pointed to elevated platelet
serotonin (5-HT) levels and a surge in brain growth in the first two years of life. Following a review of the diversity of ASD phenotypes and its genetic origins
and biomarkers, we will discuss opportunities for translation of these findings
into novel ASD treatments, focusing on mTor and 5-HT signaling pathways and
their possible intersection. Paralleling the progress made in understanding the
root causes of rare genetic syndromes that affect cognitive development, we
anticipate progress in models systems using bona fide ASD-associated molecular
changes that have the potential to accelerate development of ASD diagnostics and
therapeutics.
Jeremy Veenstra-VanderWeele completed his undergraduate degree in Psychology
at Harvard University. He then attended medical school at the University of
Chicago, where he completed a pre-doctoral year and molecular genetic research
training in the lab of Dr. Edwin H. Cook, Jr., M.D. After completing general and
child psychiatry residency, he moved to Vanderbilt University for a postdoctoral
fellowship with Randy Blakely, Ph.D., to learn how to study mouse models of
autism and OCD-related susceptibility genes. Jeremy has now established his own
lab as an Assistant Professor at Vanderbilt, where his group works to understand
the contributions of genes in the serotonin and glutamate systems to social and

From Revolution to Evolution:
The Glutamate Hypothesis of Schizophrenia
and its Implication for Treatment
Bita Moghaddam
University of Pittsburgh
Glutamate is the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in mammalian brain. Disturbances in glutamate-mediated neurotransmission have been increasingly
documented in a range of neuropsychiatric disorders including schizophrenia,
substance abuse, mood disorders, Alzheimer’s disease and autism-spectrum
disorders. Glutamatergic theories of schizophrenia are based on the ability
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonists to induce schizophrenialike symptoms, as well as emergent literature documenting disturbances of
NMDAR-related gene expression and metabolic pathways in schizophrenia. Research over the past two decades has highlighted promising new targets for
drug development based on potential pre- and postsynaptic, and glial mechanisms
leading to NMDAR dysfunction. Reduced NMDAR activity on inhibitory
neurons leads to disinhibition of glutamate neurons increasing synaptic activity
of glutamate, especially in the prefrontal cortex. Based on this mechanism,
normalizing excess glutamate levels by metabotropic glutamate group 2/3
receptor agonists has led to the identification of the first non-monoaminergic
target with comparable efficacy as conventional antipsychotic drugs for treating
positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia. In addition, NMDAR has
intrinsic modulatory sites that are active targets for drug development, several of
which show promise in preclinical/early clinical trials targeting both symptoms
and cognition. To date, most studies have been done with orthosteric agonists
and/or antagonists at specific sites. However, allosteric modulators, both positive
and negative, may offer superior efficacy with less danger of downregulation. Bita Moghaddam, PhD is Professor of Neuroscience, Psychiatry, and
Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Pittsburgh. She received a PhD in
Biochemistry from the University of Kansas in the laboratory of Ralph N. Adams
and postdoctoral training in pharmacology at Yale University in the laboratory
of Steve Bunney. Her research focuses on the use of animal models to study the

cellular basis of cognitive constructs that are critical to psychiatric disorders,

targeting compound (targeting metabotropic glutamate receptors) for potential
treatment of schizophrenia. Her research has been funded continuously since
1991, including a MERIT award from the National Institute of Mental Health. Her education experience involves extensive didactic teaching of neuroscience
to undergraduates, graduate students, medical students and residents. She is the

Parkinson’s Disease Therapeutics
Yoland Smith
Emory University
The demonstrations that dopamine loss is the key pathological feature of Parkinson’s
disease, and the subsequent introduction of Levodopa, have revolutionalized
the field of Parkinson’s disease (PD) therapeutics. In this presentation, I will
discuss the significant progress that has been made in the development of new
pharmacological and surgical tools to treat PD motor symptoms since these
major breakthroughs in the 1960’s. However, I will also highlight some of
the challenges the field of PD therapeutics has been struggling with during the
past decades. The lack of neuroprotective therapies and the limited treatment
strategies for the nonmotor symptoms of the disease (i.e. cognitive impairments,
autonomic dysfunctions, psychiatric disorders, etc.) are among the most pressing
issues to be addressed in years to come. It appears that the combination of early
PD nonmotor symptoms with imaging of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system
offers a promising path towards the identification of PD biomarkers which, once
characterized, will set the stage for efficient use of neuroprotective agents that
could slow down and alter the course of the disease. Dr. Smith got his PhD degree in Neurobiology from Laval University, Quebec,
Canada in 1988, under the supervision of Professor Andre Parent. He then spent
two years of postdoctoral training in the laboratory of Professor Paul Bolam in
the Medical Research Council Unit in Oxford UK. After his postdoc training
in Oxford, he spent a year in the laboratory of Professor Mahlon DeLong in
Johns Hopkins University. After this stay in USA, he got a faculty position in the
Department of Anatomy of Laval University in Quebec where he spent five years
developing a research program that focused on the synaptic organization of the
primate basal ganglia. In 1996, he moved to the Yerkes National Primate Research
Center of Emory University in Atlanta where he is now a full Professor in the
Department of Neurology and the Yerkes Center. His research is supported by
grants from the National Institute of Health, the National Parkinson Foundation,
the Tourette Syndrome Association, the Michael J Fox Foundation and the RJG
Foundation. He is a member of the Emory University`s UDALL Center for
Parkinson`s disease. He has published over 200 peer-reviewed manuscripts and

Translational Development of Transcranial
Approaches to Depression Treatment
Sarah Lisanby
Duke University School of Medicine
Targeted modulation of brain function transcranially, without the need for surgery,
offers great potential in the treatment of depression. From the powerful efficacy
of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), to the relative safety of transcranial magnetic
stimulation (TMS), transcranial approaches have broadened the therapeutic
spectrum for depression, and new developments in the field promise a growing
array of safe and effective alternatives to come. Transcranial approaches to the
treatment of depression include a range of magnetic and electrical interventions
including the seizure therapies {ECT, magnetic seizure therapy (MST), focal
electrically administered seizure therapy (FEAST)} and subconvulsive therapies
{TMS, transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), cranial electrical stimulation
(CES)}. These interventions are similar with respect to their lack of invasiveness
and use of electrical currents to stimulate the brain, either directly or indirectly
via electromagnetic induction. Key to the successful clinical implementation
of these interventions is the determination of the optimal dosage to induce safe
and effective antidepressant response. Indeed, dosage has long been known to
determine the safety and efficacy of the gold standard transcranial approach to
depression – ECT. However, even in the case of ECT, understanding of how
to best quantify and control the dose of transcranial treatments is evolving. Recent research has questioned the wisdom of summary metrics that collapse
information across stimulus parameters, and highlights the critical importance of
individual parameters in determining impact on brain function. Preclinical studies
offer the opportunity to systematically evaluate the individual contributions of
parameters to determining specific physiological outcomes. However, there
are barriers to translating findings from the preclinical to the clinical context. These barriers include limits to homology across species, inappropriate scaling
of stimulation paradigms across head sizes and shapes, and limits to the validity
of animal models of clinical syndromes. These barriers can be addressed through
realistic head modeling to scale fields induced in preclinical models to match the
clinical context and the selection of appropriate intermediate outcome measures

Lifespan Studies of Depression: Implications for Treatment
Barbara Sahakian
University of Cambridge Department of Psychiatry
Many neuropsychiatric disorders are of neurodevelopmental origin, with an onset
or prodromal stage in childhood or adolescence. The identification of cognitive
and other biomarkers, including from neuroimaging and genetics, for detecting
vulnerability and onset is important for the prevention of neuropsychiatric
disorders, such as depression, becoming chronic and relapsing. Neuropsychiatric
disorders typically manifest as problems with attentional biases, aberrant learning,
dysfunctional reward systems and lack of top down cognitive control by prefrontal
cortex. The key to prevention, early detection and early effective treatment is the
use of cognitive biomarkers such as negative attentional biases (Roiser, Elliott &
Sahakian, in press). Otherwise, disorders may lead to changed states including
entrenched habits which are difficult, if not impossible, to treat such as is the
case of drug addiction. Similarly, in depression when the disorder has become
chronic and relapsing, it is often resistant to treatment, although fortunately, new
approaches, such as fast acting ketamine or deep brain stimulation are likely to
become more widely used (Holtzheimer & Mayberg, 2010; Kennedy et al, 2011;
Zarate et al, 2006; See also Drevets & Furey, 2010). This lifespan approach may
prevent some individuals from developing depression and lead to early effective
treatment in others. Given the cost of common mental health disorders in terms of
distress to the individual and their family as well as the cost financially to society
and governments, new developments for treatments across the lifespan should
be a priority so that all members of society can flourish (Beddington et al, 2008;
Collins et al, 2011; Insel, 2009; Sahakian et al, 2010).
Dr. Sahakian has an international reputation in the fields of cognitive psychopharmacology, neuroethics, neuropsychology, neuropsychiatry and neuroimaging. She is co-inventor of the CANTAB computerised neuropsychological tests, which
are in use world-wide. Indeed, she has over 300 publications covering these
topics in scientific journals, including Science, Nature, Nature Neuroscience,
The Lancet, British Medical Journal, Archives of General Psychiatry, American
Journal of Psychiatry, Biological Psychiatry, the Journal of Neuroscience, Brain,
Psychopharmacology and Psychological Medicine. From 2006 to 2010 she was

BACKGROUND: Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are characterized by
deficits in social communication and by repetitive behaviors and/or restricted
interests. Numerous rare genetic variants of major effect have been identified in
ASDs. To understand how such etiological heterogeneity translates into common
neurobiological pathways, we used gene enrichment and pathway analyses. METHODS: We made use of a manually collated list of genes where mutations
have been shown to be associated with high risk for ASD. These genes include
those that are well known (e.g., NRXN3, NRXN4, SHANK2, SHANK3, FMR1,
UBE3A, MECP2) and many other less common genes. To extend the findings to
an additional neurodevelopmental disorder related genetically to ASD, we also
curated a list of almost 200 genes where mutations lead to intellectual disability
(ID). We then used unbiased enrichment analyses, making use of data from largescale proteomic studies, to determine whether there was evidence for enrichment
of ASD genes in synaptic and subsynaptic compartments. As a further step we
took advantage of emerging whole exome sequencing data in ASD to determine
whether there was an enrichment of de novo variation in synaptic and subsynaptic
compartments. RESULTS: We observed strong enrichment of ASD genes in the murine or
human synaptic proteome (P < 1.8x10-4, hypergeometric test). Remarkably,
much of this enrichment could be traced to just two subsynaptic proteomes, that
of the NMDA-receptor complex (NRC) and that of the AMPA-receptor complex
(ARC). In contrast, the metabotropic glutamate receptor pathway, previously
hypothesized to be broadly implicated in ASD based on Fragile X syndrome,
did not show such enrichment. In validation experiments we found that these
pathways were also enriched for genes mutated in intellectual disability (ID). As we had two independent datasets (one for ASD and one for ID) we were able

to assess whether using existing protein-protein interaction (PPI) databases we
were able to identify known neurodevelopmental genes. In these analyses, genes
that were associated with ASD were significantly enriched for ID genes and vice
versa. This provided a strong rationale for using PPI databases to assess novel
ASD findings. We therefore made use of emerging data from a large-scale NIMH
and NHGRI-funded whole exome sequencing study (MH089025, Mark Daly,
communicating PI, Joseph Buxbaum, Bernie Devlin, Richard Gibbs, Gerard
Schellenberg, James Sutcliffe, collaborating PI’s), examining de novo mutations
in ASD trios to determine whether there was an enrichment of genes that were
associated with the NRC and ARC genes found in ASD and ID. We developed a
distance metric (Di) that assessed the average distance between a novel gene and
the prior list of ASD and ID genes, using a background PPI network, comparing
case to control variants. Even with data from only a modest number of trios
available to date, we found a significant (P<0.02, t-test) reduction in average
distance for case variants, indicating that amongst the de novo variants there is
an enrichment of genes that closely associated with prior ASD genes, particularly
those in the NRC and ARC complexes.
DISCUSSION: These studies highlight several important points. First,
ionotropic glutamate receptor signaling appears to be broadly disrupted in both
ASD and ID. Second, in spite of diverse molecular origins in specific cases of
ASD and/or ID certain compartments and pathways are recurrently impacted. Identifying pathways impacted by multiple independent mutations indicates that
novel therapeutics that target such pathways can have broader benefit. Third,
the findings underscore the role of synaptic function in these developmental
disorders and provide a strong rationale for using neurobiological approaches
in model systems to understand pathophysiology. Finally, these studies indicate
that systems biological approaches using unbiased datasets can be useful for
identifying additional genes in ASD and ID.

BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small interfering RNAs that
regulate gene expression by binding and inhibiting target mRNAs. miRNAs
expressed in the brain are critical for synaptic development and plasticity. Chronic ethanol exposure can cause lasting changes in the medial prefrontal
cortex (mPFC), in part due to changes in expression of genes involved in synaptic
plasticity. Using next-generation sequencing, we cataloged whole transcriptome
(WT) and miRNA expression alterations in the mPFC to further our understanding
of the global regulation patterns associated with alcohol dependence. METHODS: Rats were exposed to alcohol vapor for 7 consecutive weeks. Blood
alcohol concentrations (BACs) were taken weekly. Three weeks after exposure,
the mPFC was harvested using the atlas of Paxinos and Watson as reference. Total
RNA was isolated from the mPFC and run through the WT RNA sequencing
and small RNA sequencing protocol (n = 4/group). Log2 transformation and
normalization of the raw data using the Limma package from Bioconductor was
used. WT and Small RNA sequence reads were mapped to rat genomic sequences
(UCSC rn4) using Bowtie. Bioinformatics analysis (Ingenuity Pathway Analysis;
GO analysis) and the miRNA Sanger Database were used to determine miRNAgene interactions, pathways and functions, and networks involved in alcohol
dependence. RESULTS: For the mPFC, we generated a total of 3.4 million and 10.3 million
reads for WT and small RNA sequencing, respectively. Quantile probability plots
identified that the sequencing data are normally distributed. 566 genes and 20
miRNA families were found to be differentially regulated within our data set. Gene
Ontology analysis identified 150 of the 566 genes to be involved in neurological

disorders. 16 genes are specifically involved in regulating the quantity of synaptic
vesicles and activation of synaptic transmission. The miRNA Sanger Data base
identified that the 8 top differentially expressed genes are potentially regulated by
miR-200. miR-200 is known to be upregulated by oxidative stress and members
of the miR-200 family regulate genes involved in neurogenesis. A subset of these
mRNAs and miRNAs were further confirmed by Taqman qRT-PCR.
DISCUSSION: Our results demonstrate a significant and lasting shift in miRNA
and mRNA expression patterns in the mPFC following a history of alcohol
dependence. Alcohol dependent-regulated miRNAs may contribute to longlasting drug-induced neuroplasticity by fine-tuning regulatory pathways that
modulate oxidative stress, neurotransmitter quantity and release, and synaptic
plasticity. Ongoing in vitro and in vivo experiments are currently determining the
functional link between our dysregulated miRNAs and their target genes.

Selective Optogenetic Stimulation of Parvalbumin-positive
Basal Forebrain Neurons Reliably entrains Cortical Gamma
Oscillations and Promotes Wakefulness

BACKGROUND: The basal forebrain (BF) plays a crucial role in the
modulation of cortical activity across sleep-wake cycles via cortically projecting
cholinergic and non-cholinergic neurons. One of the more important facets of
cortical activation is the presence of gamma band (40Hz) activation, known to
be important in feature binding and to be impaired in schizophrenia. However,
little is known about the role of the BF in this important feature. Among noncholinergic neurons in BF, parvalbumin (PARV)-containing, gamma-aminobutyric
acid (GABA)ergic neurons are one of the important components. They project
to GABAergic PARV+ cortical neurons and their firing rates increase during
the electroencephalographic (EEG) low-voltage fast activity characteristic of
waking. However, their precise contribution to cortical activation and sleep-wake
regulation is not well understood. Therefore we sought to selectively express a
light-activated opsin (i.e. channelrhodopsin2, ChR2) in PARV-positive neurons
within BF to enable their selective activation using optogenetic stimulation, and
to determine the effect on the EEG and sleep-wake behavior. METHODS: To target channelrhodopsins selectively to BF PARV neurons,
adeno-associated viral vectors with double-floxed Channelrhodopsin2 (ChR2)eYFP were injected stereotactically into the BF of transgenic mice expressing Cre
recombinase under the control of the PARV promoter (PARV-Cre mice). Posthoc
immunohistochemistry was done for histological confirmation of selective
expression. To evaluate the physiological effect of activation of BF PARV neurons,
optical stimulation (laser light, 473 nm, 10 ms pulse width, various frequencies
from 2 to 60 Hz) was delivered through an optical fiber inserted into a guide
cannula targeting the BF. The effect on the sleep-wake cycle was investigated by
comparing one hour of baseline EEG with that of same time of day of one hour of
optical stimulation (40 Hz frequency, 5 s train duration, every 60 s). 39

RESULTS: Immunohistochemistry, performed at least two weeks after injection
of the virus, confirmed high levels of double labeling of ChR2-eYFP (green)
and PARV (red) indicating selective expression of ChR2-eYFP in BF PARV
neurons. BF entrainment of the cortical EEG was particularly dramatic when
the BF stimulation was at the gamma oscillation frequency (40 Hz). Notably,
this entrainment could be reproducibly elicited over the course of an hour of
stimulation; each and every train of 40 Hz BF stimulation was reliably followed
by cortical 40 Hz activity. 20 Hz stimulation elicited a clear 40 Hz harmonic. The
sleep-wake behavior was altered by optical stimulation, increasing wakefulness
from 9.2 % to 45.2 % and decreasing NREM sleep from 75.3 % to 43.5 %,
excluding the 5 s of stimulation. DISCUSSION: We believe this BF PARV-specific elicitation of cortical gamma
oscillation has not been previously reported, and may represent an important
but unsuspected feature of BF activation and of generation of cortical gamma
oscillations. We conclude that optogenetic stimulation of PARV-positive BF
neurons entrains cortical rhythms, particularly those in the gamma range, and
enhances wakefulness. A role of abnormalities of BF in the abnormalities of
cortical gamma oscillations in schizophrenia appears to be an intriguing, but as
yet unexplored, possibility raised by these findings.

Monday, Poster #7

BACKGROUND: Innate differences in human temperament strongly
influence how individuals cope with stress and predispose for specific types
of psychopathology. The present study examines developing brain circuits
in an animal model of temperamental differences to understand how altered
neurodevelopment may engender differences in emotional reactivity that are stable
throughout the animal’s life, and may put an individual at risk for a depressive/
anxious phenotype. METHODS: We utilize selectively-bred High Responder (bHR) and Low
Responder (bLR) rats that exhibit dramatic emotional behavior differences,
with bHRs exhibiting exaggerated novelty-exploration, aggression, impulsivity
and drug self-administration, and bLRs showing marked behavioral inhibition,
exaggerated anxiety- and depressive-like behavior. Using Affymetrix microarrays,
we assessed bLR/bHR gene expression in the developing brain on postnatal
days (P)7, 14, and 21, focusing on the hippocampus and nucleus accumbens,
two regions related to emotionality and known to differ in adult bLR/bHR rats. Stereological studies were used to examine potential differences in brain structure. Subsequent studies began to examine potential epigenetic mechanisms (e.g. DNA
methylation) that may contribute to putative gene expression differences in the
developing bHR versus bLR brain. To this end, we used in situ hybridization to
assess the mRNA expression of DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) – one of the
chief enzymes involved in DNA methylation in the brain. RESULTS: The microarray study revealed dramatic bLR/bHR gene expression
differences in the P7 and P14 hippocampus, with minimal differences in the
nucleus accumbens. Some of the most profound differences involved genes
critical for neurodevelopment and synaptogenesis. Stereological studies evaluated
hippocampal structure in developing bHR/bLR pups, revealing enhanced
hippocampal volume and cell proliferation in bLR animals. Results of the DNMT1

in situ hybridization study point to potential bHR/bLR differences in DNA
methylation within specific subregions of the hippocampus (upper blade of
the dentate gyrus and the CA3 region). Interestingly, additional analysis also
uncovered similar bHR/bLR DNMT1 differences within select nuclei of the
amygdala – another key brain region that controls emotional behavior, in part via
reciprocal connections with the hippocampus. DISCUSSION: Our work-to-date with the bHR/bLR rat lines demonstrates the
heritability of the bHR and bLR behavioral phenotypes. Their underlying genetic
differences appear to drive distinct formation of the hippocampus, leading to
marked differences in hippocampal morphology and gene expression during the
first two weeks of life. The DNMT1 findings in the hippocampus and amygdala
suggest that the observed bHR/bLR differences in gene expression, brain
morphology and behavior may be linked to epigenetic changes occurring in early
life. Ongoing efforts will continue to examine DNA methylation status in the
developing bHR/bLR hippocampus and select amygdalar nuclei, and determine
whether early-life interventions (such as environmental enrichment) known to
improve LRs’ anxious/depressive phenotype act by influencing hippocampal
DNA methylation levels. Taken together, this body of work may provide important
insight into the possible genesis of individual differences in emotionalty and
related risks for the emergence of emotional disorders (e.g. the anxiety-prone
nature of bLRs or drug addiction proclivity of bHRs).

BACKGROUND: The surprising rapid clinical effect of deep brain stimulation
in depressed patients supports the notion that depression is a neural circuit
disorder. In contrast, less is known if depression-like behaviors can be induced
or reversed rapidly in animal models. Our previous ex vivo and in vivostudies
showed that chronic social defeat consistently increased the firing rate and phasic
firing events of ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopamine (DA) neurons in the
brain reward circuitry of susceptible mice, but not of the resilient subgroup (Cell
2007; J Neurosci 2010). However, the physiological function of this increased
firing and its ionic mechanisms, as well as potential therapeutic targets, remain to
be elucidated. METHODS: Susceptible and resilient mice were segregated following a chronic
(10-day) social defeat paradigm, a well established model of depression. Utilizing
optogenetic techniques – Cre-dependent expression of channelrhodopsin-2
(ChR2) in tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-Cre mice, phasic firing was induced by
high frequency optoactivation of ChR2 specifically in VTA DA neurons, and
behavioral tests (social interaction and sucrose preference) were performed in
behaving mice. The ionic mechanisms that underlie the hyperactivity of these
neurons were also examined in TH-GFP mice by use of electrophysiological
techniques. RESULTS: Consistent with our earlier findings, we found that optoactivation of
ChR2 (mimicking phasic firing) during sub-threshold defeat, a paradigm that does
not induce depressive-like behaviors in normal mice, increased social avoidance
behavior and reduced sucrose intake. Importantly, the same optoactivation of
these neurons during social interaction tests instantly induced similar susceptible

behaviors in both resilient mice and the mice treated with sub-threshold defeat. These findings indicate that the phasic firing of VTA DA neurons encodes, and
is tightly linked to, the susceptible phenotype. Next, toward understanding the
ionic mechanisms of the higher VTA DA neuron firing, we previously found that
the current of Ih, an important channel in the transition between tonic and phasic
firing patterns, was upregulated in susceptible mice and that local infusion of
Ih inhibitors ZD 7288 and DK-AH 269 into the VTA normalized depressionlike social avoidance in susceptible mice within one hour after the infusion. This rapid effect is very different from classic antidepressants that take weeks to
show treatment efficacy. Surprisingly, in our ongoing studies, we also observed
that the antidepressant effect induced by a single-dose infusion of Ih inhibitor
DK-AH 269 lasted at least two weeks. More importantly, this long-lasting effect
was also seen with a single intraperitoneal dose of DK-AH 269. Following these
studies, we also found that chronic defeat induced a larger increase in Ih current
in resilient mice than in the susceptible subgroup. This finding suggests that the
force driving the pathological hyperactivity persists in resilient mice, and that
additional compensatory ionic mechanisms such as K+ channels are necessary to
drive the higher firing back to normal levels in resilient mice. Consistently, our
data showed that K+ currents were significantly increased selectively in resilient
mice, which is consistent with our earlier microarray data. In addition, we found
that local infusion of the K+ (KCNQ) channel activator flupirtine into the VTA
had similar rapid antidepressant effects as seen with Ih inhibitors. We are now
investigating the effect of systemic administration of this activator and others. DISCUSSION: Here we demonstrate that optogenetics is a powerful tool to
precisely imitate stress-induced physiological adaptations and reliably define
VTA DA neurons in the brain reward circuit as a therapeutic target. Interestingly,
optogenetically-induced phasic firing rapidly induces avoidance behavior during
interaction tests, even in resilient mice. Our data also strongly support that Ih

channels are one of the passive pathological ion mechanisms that underlie
the susceptible firing increase, while K+ channels are an important active ion
mechanism that drives the pathological hyperactivity back to normal levels in
resilient mice. Importantly, passive ion channel inhibitors and active ion channel
activators that inhibit the higher pathological firing of VTA DA neurons are both
antidepressant and pro-resilient. Our studies provide fundamentally novel drug
targets forrapid or long-lasting antidepressants, which are mechanistically distinct
from predominant monoamine-based medications.

Stress Exposure produces a Switch from Appetitive to Aversive
Signaling by Corticotropin-releasing Factor in the Nucleus

BACKGROUND: Stressors motivate an array of adaptive responses ranging
from “fight or flight” to an internal urgency signal facilitating long-term goals. However, traumatic or chronic uncontrollable stress promotes the onset of Major
Depressive Disorder where acute stressors lose their motivational properties. An emerging neurobiological substrate of clinical depression is the nucleus
accumbens which has the capacity to mediate a diverse range of stressor responses
by interfacing limbic, cognitive and motor circuitry. Here, we studied the actions
of the stress-related neuropeptide, corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) in the
nucleus accumbens on dopamine transmission and behavior. METHODS: Inmmunohistochemistry and transmission electron microscopy
were used to study anatomical interactions between CRF and dopamine terminals,
and fast-scan cyclic voltammetry was used to assess the effect of CRF on
dopamine transmission in the nucleus accumbens of mice. Subjective effects of
intrathecal administration of CRF into the nucleus accumbens was tested using a
place-conditioning paradigm. These experiments were carried out in stress-naïve
mice, or those exposed to a forced-swim-stress paradigm to elicit a depressive
phenotype. RESULTS: Within the nucleus accumbens, CRF-containing fibers were
interdigitated with dopamine-containing fibers. Both CRF R1 and R2 receptors
were co-localized with tyrosine hydroxylase expression, indicating that they are
expressed on dopamine-containing terminals. In the nucleus accumbens of stressnaïve mice, CRF increased dopamine release through co-activation of CRF R1
and R2 receptors. However, severe-stress exposure completely abolished this
effect without recovery for at least 90 days. This loss of CRF’s capacity to regulate
dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens was accompanied by a switch in the

perception of CRF from an appetitive to an aversive stimulus, indicating a
diametric change in the emotional response to acute stressors.
DISCUSSION: Here we demonstrate a specific defect in the regulation of
dopamine transmission in the nucleus accumbens in the genesis of depression. We show that severe stress disables the capacity of CRF to positively regulate
dopamine, removing CRF’s appetitive qualities, leaving a negative perceptual
bias. Indeed, depressive disorders produce a profound change in the perception
and behavioral response to acute stressors and other arousing environmental
stimuli that elicit CRF signaling. Taken together, our findings provide a
neurobiological mechanism for the affective shift from engagement of the
environment to withdrawal following severe stress, central to the manifestation
of Major Depressive Disorder.

BACKGROUND: The Val66Met single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in
the human brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene is associated with
alterations in brain anatomy and memory in humans, however its role in affective
disorders still remains unclear. Previously, we generated a variant BDNF mouse
(BDNFMet/Met) that reproduces the phenotypic hallmarks of human Met allele
carriers such as alterations in hippocampal anatomy and hippocampal dependent
memory. Variant BDNFMet is expressed in mouse brains at normal levels,
however its secretion from neurons is decreased. In addition, BDNFMet/Met
mice displayed an increased anxiety-like phenotype that emerges in adulthood,
which was not previously established in human carriers. This behavior is not
normalized by the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, fluoxetine, administered
in adulthood. We hypothesized that this behavioral consequence of the genetic
variant BDNFMet observed in the adult central nervous system was due to
reduced BDNF availability during postnatal development. We tested whether
transiently increasing BDNF levels via fluoxetine administration during an earlylife “sensitive period” when BDNF levels are peaking may prevent the emergence
of the increased anxiety-like behavior in BDNFMet/Met mice in adulthood. METHODS: BDNFVal/Val and BDNFMet/Met mice received fluoxetine
(160mg/L in drinking water) in three age groups: P21-P42, P40-P61, and
P60-P81. Anxiety-like behaviors were tested after a 3-4 week wash-out period. Hippocampal BDNF levels and neuronal morphology were also assessed. RESULTS: Early-life (P21-P42) fluoxetine treatment significantly reduced
anxiety-like behaviors in BDNFMet/Met mice in adulthood. Fluoxetine given
at other time periods to either BDNFVal/Val or BDNFMet/Met mice had no
significant effects on anxiety-like behaviors. BDNF levels increased at the end of
each treatment period, but were normalized with wash out. The highest levels of

total BDNF levels were achieved when fluoxetine was administered during the
P21-P42 period.
DISCUSSION: Fluoxetine administration during a peri-adolescent period
(P21-P42) with subsequent wash–out leads to a rescue of an adult-onset anxietylike phenotype in BDNFMet/Met mice. This transient drug administration led
to peak BDNF levels, which may have increased BDNF availability during
this developmental window in BDNFMet/Metmice. The findings suggest that
correctly timed interventions which raise BDNF levels during a defined postnatal
period can rescue subsequent anxiety-like phenotypes in a mouse model of the
BDNF Val66Met SNP.

The Involvement of Alpha3-Containing Nicotinic Acetylcholine
Receptors in the Habenulo-Interpeduncular Pathway in Nicotine
Self-Administration
Wednesday, Poster #87
Christie Fowler, Qun Lu, Paul Kenny
The Scripps Research Institute
BACKGROUND: Allelic variation in the CHRNA3-CHRNA5-CHRNAB4
gene cluster, which encode the alpha3, alpha5 and beta4 nicotinic acetylcholine
receptor (nAChR) subunits, has been repeatedly associated with a significantly
increased risk of tobacco addiction in humans. Until recently, very little research
has focused on the role of these nAChR subunits in the motivational properties of
nicotine, the major addictive agent in tobacco smoke. We recently demonstrated
that alpha5-containing nAChRs in the medial habenulo-interpeduncular (MHbIPN) pathway exert an inhibitory influence on nicotine intake, particularly when
high doses of the drug are available for consumption. Similar to the alpha5
nAChR subunit, the alpha3 nAChR subunit demonstrates a restricted distribution
pattern in the brain, with particularly dense expression in MHb-IPN pathway. Here, we investigated the role of alpha3 nAChR subunits in regulating nicotine
consumption in rats. METHODS: A lentiviral vector was developed to selectively knockdown
expression of the alpha3 nAChR subunit gene (Lenti-CHRNA3). Rats were
injected with the Lenti-CHRNA3 or empty vector (Lenti-control) stereotaxically
into either the MHb or IPN. Thereafter, they were trained to respond for food
reward under a fixed ratio 5, time-out 20 sec (FR5TO20 sec) schedule of
reinforcement during 1-h daily testing sessions. Next, the rats were permitted
access to a training dose of nicotine (0.03 mg kg-1 per infusion) for intravenous
self-administration. After stable responding on the training dose, a full nicotine
dose-response function was characterized. RESULTS: Rats injected with the Lenti-CHRNA3 and Lenti-Control vectors
into the MHb or IPN similarly responded for food reward and acquired nicotine
self-administration behavior at the lower training nicotine dose. However, when
provided access to a range of doses, rats with selective knockdown of alpha3

nAChR subunits in either the MHb or IPN persisted in responding for nicotine
infusions at higher levels than control rats at higher unit doses of the drug. DISCUSSION: These data demonstrate that alpha3-containng nAChRs in the
MHb and IPN exert an inhibitory influence on nicotine intake similar to that
previously reported for alpha5-containing nAChRs and suggest that alpha3 and
alpha5 nAChR subunits may combine to form a functional receptor subtype in the
MHb-IPN tract that negatively regulates nicotine intake. Together, these findings
reveal fundamental insights into the mechanisms of nicotine reinforcement that
are likely to have clinical and therapeutic implications. Supported by the National

The Novel Opioid Receptor Modulator RDC-0313(ALKS 33)
reduces Olanzapine-induced Weight Gain and Adipose Accretion
in a Novel Nonhuman Primate Model of Antipsychotic-related
Weight Changes

BACKGROUND: Antipsychotics (ATAP) can cause metabolic dysfunction and
weight gain. Female patients have a 3.6-fold increased risk of weight gain than
male patients (Hakko et al., 2006) and increases in BMI can be observed in as
little as 1 week post initiation of treatment (Kluge et. al., 2009). Weight gain
has been reported with risperidone, clozapine, sertraline and olanzapine (OLZ). ALKS 33 is a new chemical entity, currently under development for central
nervous system-related disorders that acts as an antagonist at μ opioid receptors,
with mixed agonist/antagonist activity at κ and δ receptors. We have previously
demonstrated in rats that co-administration with ALKS 33 mitigates OLZ-induced
weight gain whereas naltrexone does not (SFN, 2010). We are unaware of studies
using nonhuman primates (NHP) to investigate OLZ-induced changes in weight
gain or metabolic effects. Consequently, we investigated if: 1) OLZ would cause
similar metabolic changes in female cynomolgus monkeys as seen in humans;
and 2) would ALKS 33 attenuate OLZ-induced changes. METHODS: Three groups of late-adolescent female cynomolgus monkeys (n =
5/group; 4.04 ± 0.05 yrs) were used for this study: 1) vehicle control; 2) OLZ only;
and 3) OLZ with ALKS 33. Beginning two weeks prior to the study, monkeys
were given ad libitum access to a highly palatable, high caloric diet. On the day
prior to the start of treatment, monkeys were weighed and assigned to groups
using a randomized block design based on body weight (BW); average BW across
the 3 groups was 3.1 ± 0.08 kg on the day of randomization. Also, baseline whole
body CT scans were taken on the day prior to initiation of treatments. Monkeys
receiving OLZ were dosed twice daily (6 hours between doses) for 28 days. The
initial daily dose of OLZ was 1 mg/kg (PO, in 1% methylcellulose) and increased

every 3 days to a daily dose of 6 mg/kg by Day 10. For group 3, ALKS 33 (0.4 mg/
kg, IM) was administered in the morning immediately after administration of OLZ. Weights were taken every 3 days and on Day 28 blood samples were collected for
serum chemistry analysis. A second CT scan was conducted on day 29.
RESULTS: BWs were relatively constant for two months prior to the initiation
of ad libitum feeding. Vehicle treated monkeys gained an average of 0.28 kg (9%
of Day 0 BW) over the 28-day study. This gain was attributed to the ad libitum
feeding of the highly palatable diet. Over the same 28-day period, OLZ-treated
monkeys gained an average of 0.46 kg (15% of Day 0 BW). This marked increase
in average weight gain was driven by 3 of the 5 monkeys who gained between
19.8 and 37.8 % of their initial
body weight. An accretion of adipose tissue was observed in all monkeys compared
to baseline control values. However, monkeys in the OLZ group gained relatively
more adipose tissue compared to the vehicle group. Also, there was a difference
in the location of adipose tissue deposition with the OLZ group showing more
abdominal fat accretion. Concentrations of triglycerides (TGs) and LDL were
higher in OLZ-treated monkeys (86.6 and 105.8 mg/dL, respectively) compared
to the vehicle group (62 and 87.8 mg/dL, respectively). In monkeys treated with
OLZ and ALKS 33 the average BW gain over the 28-days was only 0.08 kg
(2.6% of Day 0 BW). While these monkeys also gained adipose tissue, the extent
and distribution of fat was similar to that observed in the vehicle group and lower
than the OLZ-only group. Finally, co-administration of ALKS 33 prevented OLZinduced elevations in TGs and LDL concentrations. DISCUSSION: Based on these data, treatment of nonhuman primates with OLZ
for 28-days resulted in qualitative changes in weight, adipose tissue accretion,
TGs and LDLs similar to those reported in patients. Furthermore, OLZ-induced
changes were mitigated by co-administration of ALKS 33.

BACKGROUND: G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) signal not only via
canonical pathways involving heterotrimeric large G proteins, but also via
non-canonical G protein-independent interactions with other signaling proteins
including, most prominently, β-arrestins. The process by which GPCR ligands
differentially modulate canonical and non-canonical signal transduction pathways
is a phenomenon known as “functional selectivity”. Such functionally selective
ligands preferentially engage either canonical or non-canonical GPCR pathways. Clearly, the discovery of ligands with discrete functional selectivity profiles will
be extremely useful for elucidating the key signal transduction pathways essential
for both the therapeutic actions and side-effects of drugs. However, only a small
number of functionally selective GPCR ligands have been reported to date. In
particular, although β-arrestin-biased ligands of Gq and Gs-coupled GPCRs
are known, β-arrestin-biased GPCR ligands that selectively activate β-arrestin
signaling pathways over Gi-coupled pathways have not been reported. In this
presentation, we report the discovery of the first β-arrestin-biased dopamine D2
ligands (UNC9975, UNC0006 and UNC9994) as chemical tools for probing
signal transduction pathways essential for antipsychotic efficacy. METHODS: Novel analogs of aripiprazole (OPC-14597), an FDA-approved
atypical antipsychotic drug, were designed and synthesized. These newly
synthesized compounds were evaluated in dopamine D2 receptor binding,
D2-mediated cAMP accumulation, and 3 orthogonal and complementary D2mediated β-arrestin-2 translocation assays (using the Tango, DiscoveRx, and
bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) assay technologies). In
addition, β-arrestin-biased compounds were evaluated in an extracellular
signal-regulated kinase phosphorylation (p-ERK) reporter assay to assess their

effects on β-arrestin-mediated signaling. UNC9975 and UNC9994 were tested in
C57BL/6 wild-type (WT) and β-arrestin-2 knockout (βARR2 KO) mice for their
ability to inhibit amphetamine- or phencyclidine-stimulated hyperlocomotion. A
drug-induced catalepsy model was used to assess potential extrapyramidal sideeffects of these compounds in WT and β-ARR2 KO mice.
RESULTS: We intensely explored 4 regions of the aripiprazole template and
prepared more than 150 novel compounds. Through this robust diversity-oriented
modification of the aripiprazole scaffold, we discovered UNC9975, UNC0006
and UNC9994 as the first functionally selective, β-arrestin-biased dopamine D2
ligands, which were simultaneously neutral antagonists of Gi-regulated cAMP
production and partial agonists for D2R/β-arrestin-2 interactions. In the D2mediated cAMP accumulation assay, UNC9975, UNC0006 and UNC9994 did
not activate this Gi-coupled signaling pathway, in stark contrast to aripiprazole,
which was a potent partial agonist with an Emax of 80%. In the 3 orthogonal and
complementary D2-mediated β-arrestin-2 translocation assays, these compounds
were potent partial agonists for β-arrestin-2 recruitment to D2 receptors. In
addition, UNC9975 and UNC0006 potently activated pERK as partial agonists
and co-expression of β-arrestin-2 and GRK2 significantly enhanced the efficacy
of these compounds. Importantly, UNC9975 displayed potent antipsychotic-like
activity without inducing motoric side-effects in inbred C57BL/6 mice in vivo. Genetic deletion of β-arrestin-2 simultaneously attenuated the antipsychotic
actions of UNC9975 and transformed it into a typical antipsychotic drug with
a high propensity to induce catalepsy. Taken together, our results suggest
that β-arrestin signaling and recruitment can be simultaneously a significant
contributor to antipsychotic efficacy and protective against motoric side-effects. DISCUSSION: We discovered the first functionally selective, β-arrestin-biased
dopamine D2 ligands through a combined medicinal chemistry and comprehensive
pharmacological profiling approach. Significantly, evaluation of these novel

chemical probes in WT and β-ARR2 KO mice show that β-arrestin can emerge as
an important contributor to both antipsychotic drug efficacy and antipsychotic sideeffects. This study represents a successful proof-of-concept for how functionally
selective GPCR ligands can be discovered and validated. The β-arrestin-biased
D2 ligands discovered here are valuable tools for the biomedical community to
further investigate D2R signaling in health and disease.

BACKGROUND: Comorbidity of major depressive disorder (MDD) and
cardiovascular disease risk (CVD), with a prevalence of ~20%, will be the number
one cause of disability worldwide by 2020, and is significantly higher in women
than men. We are investigating shared pathophysiology beginning in fetal brain
development that implicates a prenatal stress model. Preeclampsia and growth
restriction, implicated in MDD and CVD, are associated with maternal immune
activation and fetal disruption of the development of the HPA axis. Here we
hypothesized that these fetal risk factors significantly predict higher comorbidity
in women than men. Further, their impact will be expressed in adulthood as sexspecific stress response circuitry, and endocrine and autonomic nervous system
(ANS) deficits that mediate the association between fetal risk and MDD and CVD
risk in women. METHODS: In a 40-year cohort study with mothers followed through pregnancy
and sera stored at NIH, 295 fetally-exposed and unexposed adult siblings were
recruited. Pro- and anti-inflammatory prenatal assays included IL-1β, IL-6,
TNF-α, IL-10, IL-8. 60 of these adult offspring were scanned using fMRI tasks
of the stress response circuitry (~half exposed/half unexposed; 26 with recurrent
DSM-IV MDD in remission). Subjects viewed images with negative valence/high
arousal vs. neutral valence/low arousal stimuli. 3T Siemens MR scanner was used
and SPM8 for analyses of blood oxygen-level dependent (BOLD) signal changes
in hippocampus (HIPP), amygdala, anterior hypothalamus (aHYP), orbitofrontal
and medial prefrontal cortices (OFC; mPFC), anterior cingulate cortex (ACC),
and periacqueductal gray (PAG). Hormones, heart rate, and high frequency R-R
interval variability (HF-RRV)) were collected during scanning timed to stress

response (e.g., DHEAS, cortisol, E2, progesterone, and testosterone). General
linear models were used to relate adult hormone and HF-RRV and prenatal
cytokines to BOLD signal changes in fetal-exposed vs. unexposed subjects,
MDD and sex. RESULTS: Fetal exposure was significantly associated with low HF-RRV in
response to stress 40 years later (F = 6.06, P = 0.01), which was 3 times greater
among MDD vs. non-MDD. Fetal-exposed females had a significantly higher
risk for comorbidity of MDD and low HF-RRV than males (RR= 1.38, p <
0.01), which was significantly related to TNF-α in maternal sera of exposed vs. unexposed comorbid women (t=2.53, p<.01). In response to stress, there were
significantly greater BOLD changes in aHYP (p<.01; ES= 1.0), HIPP (p<.04;
ES=.67), and ACC (p<.05; ES= .74) and hypoactivity in OFC (ES= .48) in fetalexposed women (the latter of which was the only significant finding in exposed
men). Fetal-exposed female MDD cases showed the greatest hyperactivity in
aHYP (ES=1.5) and hypoactivity in ACC, OFC, and HIPP (ESs = .80; 1.15; .62),
suggesting hyperarousal and lack of cortical and HIPP control in fetal-exposed
MDD women. Key stress response brain regions were significantly associated
with loss of parasympathetic cardiac regulation. Higher TNF-α/IL-10 and IL-6
were significantly related to lower BOLD changes in HIPP and ACC, which cooccurred with disruptions in HPA and HPG hormones (i.e, lower DHEAS, E2,
and testosterone, and higher progesterone and cortisol in response to stress). DISCUSSION: Findings suggest shared fetal risk factors for the comorbidity of
MDD and CVD risk in women. They may, in part, act through a disruption of the
maternal immune response resulting in sex-specific effects on offspring’s HPA
circuitry, expressed in adulthood as brain activity, endocrine and ANS deficits. Thus, the fetal programming of the stress response circuitry may be important for
understanding vulnerability to MDD and CVD risk, particularly in women.

BACKGROUND: Parenting constitutes an evolutionarily conserved set of
attachment behaviors and associated thoughts that contribute to responses to a
distressed infant. These include immediate attention to needs and safety as well
as soothing and caring that shape child development. Parenting behaviors and
thoughts are influenced by a mother’s own life experiences and repertoire of
parenting-related thoughts. Upon hearing the distress signal of baby-cry, maternal
neurophysiological systems respond to ensure adaptive responses, including
increases in motivation to approach and decreases avoidance drives as a function
of parenting-related thoughts. However, the capacity of mothers to generate
caring behaviors and thoughts may be compromised by the accumulation of
risk factors, including a history of child abuse, post-traumatic stress disorder,
and/or major depression disorder. Thus, in this functional magnetic resonance
imaging (fMRI) study, we hypothesize that: 1. Mothers brain responses to babycry, as a function of psychopathological risk, will be associated with decreased in
positive motivation, rewarding and caring regions and increased avoidance and
fear regions 2. Mothers at risk for depression will have inhibited self-reflection/
empathy brain responses in response to personalized messages about parenting
METHODS: Eighteen mothers of 2-7 year old children were assessed for current
and cumulative psychopathological risk, including histories of child abuse, posttraumatic stress disorder, major depression. In addition, the working model of
the child interview (WMCI) was administered. In a Phillips 3T scanner, the
participants underwent two types of task in a pseudo-randomized block-design:
1. An auditory baby-cry task, in which mothers listened to 30 second-blocks of 3
conditions and a pattern-matched white noise preceded by one of three primers:
“a baby crying”, “your baby crying”, or “you yourself are crying as a baby”. 2. A personally tailored message task, in which mothers were shown excerpts from
their own responses to the WMCI, administered within a few days of the brain

scanning over two conditions: directed feedback (e.g., “You find it most difficult
to handle when [child’s name] screams.”) and open-ended feedback (e.g., “Think
about when [child’s name] screams.”). In addition there was a non-parentingrelated control message condition (e.g., “Think about the speed of the internet”). All data were analyzed with SPM 8. RESULTS: For the baby-cry task, we found the following: Listening to “a
baby-crying” vs. white noise differentially activated salience-related regions of
extended amygdala and insula, and that these neural responses increased with
cumulative psychopathological risk. Listening to “your baby crying” vs. “a baby
crying” differentially activated reward-related and salience regions of nucleus
accumbens, and hippocampus. Listening to “you yourself as a baby crying”
vs. “a baby crying” differentially activated anxiety- or stress-related regions
of middle frontal gyrus, caudate, posterior insula, and habenula proportionally
with cumulative psychopathological risk. To benchmark the neural regulation
between positive and negative motivations, we contrasted “you yourself as a
baby crying” with “your baby crying” and, as predicted, found that mothers with
higher cumulative psychopathological risks showed reduced neural responses in
the nucleus accumbens and hippocampus associated with positive motivation, but
enhanced neural responses in the hypothalamus, midbrain, amygdala, caudate,
anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), insula, and habenula associated with negative
emotions of fear and avoidance. For the maternal interview task, we contrasted
directed + open-ended feedback vs. control to find differential activation in the
self-reflection regions of the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex, precuneus, posterior
cingulate (PCC) cortex, and ACC. However, grouping subjects according
psychopathological risk showed reductions in neural response in PCC and
precuneus in to high vs. low risk. These results suggest a link between maternal
psychopathology and diminished neural response in brain regions that are integral
to self-reflection.

BACKGROUND: Endogenous opioids, which alleviate physical pain, are
also thought to have broader effects on the regulation of responses to stressors,
including social distress in several species including chicks, rats, guinea pigs,
dogs, and monkeys. It is not known if endogenous opioids perform a similar
function in humans. In this study, it was hypothesized that the endogenous opioid
system would respond to social rejection, an explicit declaration that one is not
liked, by measuring μ-opioid receptor binding in vivo at baseline and during
social rejection. Reductions in receptor availability (i.e., binding potential, BP)
are indicative of endogenous opioid release and μ-opioid receptor activation. METHODS: 10 healthy volunteers (7 females; mean age, 33 ± 11 years) were
clear of active medical illness, current or past psychiatric disorders, and had
no history of medication at the time of study. [11C]carfentanil, a selective and
specific μ-opioid receptor radioligand, was intravenously administered during
positron emission tomography (PET). BP was calculated using Logan plots with
occipital cortex as a reference region. Participants completed online ratings for
profiles of the opposite sex, and only the most-liked profiles were presented to
increase feedback saliency. During the scan, participants viewed these profiles
along with feedback that they were not liked (12 profiles/block). Baseline blocks
contained a similar visual presentation with no feedback. Blocks were presented
in a randomized, counterbalanced design across participants, and measures of
emotional state were obtained after each feedback. A prioriregions of interest
included the ventral striatum, amygdala, thalamus, insula, anterior cingulate
cortex, and periaqueductal gray (PAG). These regions have high levels of μ-opioid
receptors and have been previously shown to respond to physical pain. RESULTS: Measures of emotional state indicated that participants felt
significantly more “rejected” during rejection compared to baseline blocks (P
= 0.006). Reductions in μ-opioid binding potential was found during rejection

compared to baseline blocks in the bilateral ventral striatum (left, P = 0.002; right,
P = 0.003), left amygdala (P = 0.006), midline thalamus (P = 0.006), bilateral
insula (left, P = 0.02; right, P = 0.01), right anterior cingulate cortex (P = 0.03),
and PAG (P = 0.03). In contrast, no significant decreases in binding were found
during baseline compared to rejection blocks.
DISCUSSION: This is the first demonstration that the endogenous opioid system
responds to social rejection. The PAG, midline thalamus, amygdala, ventral
striatum, insula, and anterior cingulate comprise a pathway by which stressrelated information may influence emotion, mood, and motivation. Decreased
μ-opioid BP reflects the release of endogenous opioids interacting with μ-opioid
receptors, which may function to regulate activity along this pathway. Negative
repercussions of social rejection include lowered self-esteem, major depressive
disorder, social anxiety disorder, substance abuse disorders, risk-taking behavior,
and aggression. The results suggest that endogenous opioids are involved in
the link between social rejection and the potential to develop these psychiatric
illnesses and maladaptive behaviors.

Deep Brain Stimulation in Treatment Resistant Alcohol
Addiction - Longterm Results of the Magdeburg Pilot Study
Monday, Poster #169
Ulf Mueller, Bernhard Bogerts
University Hospitals Magdeburg
BACKGROUND: Worldwide, over 76 million people suffer from alcohol use
disorders. They are at increased risk for early death by somatic complications
with a reduced life expectancy by over 20 years and show an increased suicide
risk compared to the nonpsychiatric ill. Unfortunately, following current
treatment options, over 50% of alcoholics do not achieve long-term abstinence
and subsequently develop severe complications. Aside from these individual
medical consequences, addiction causes an immense financial damage to society. Thus, finding new treatment options remains a leading challenge in clinical
psychiatry. In the last years, there has been increased evidence that chronic
alcohol consumption leads to a dysfunction of the Nucleus accumbens (NAc),
thereby causing cue-induced craving, which is considered one of the main reasons
why patients cannot stay abstinent and relapse. The observation of remission of a
secondary alcohol addiction in a patient who received deep brain stimulation of
the NAc for treatment resistant anxiety disorder led to the initiation of this trial. METHODS: On the basis of an OFF-label single patient use, 5 patients with very
severe treatment resistant alcohol addiction for many years received bilateral deep
brain stimulation to the Nucleus accumbens at our centre. They were operated in
general anaesthesia using a modified Riechert-Mundinger stereotactic system with
a deep fronto-lateral approach. Quadrupolar electrodes (Medtronic Quad 3389)
for DBS were placed bilaterally in the shell region of the nucleus after presurgical
planning using high resolution T1-weighted MRI-scans. Subsequently, electrodecables were connected to an impulse generator located beneath the left pectoral
muscle (Kinetra, Medtronic®) similar to a cardiac pacemaker. RESULTS: All patients reported an immediate and ongoing absence of craving
for alcohol. All patients show a severe reduction of drinking days and amount
of drinks/day. 4/5 patients are continuously employed again after years of
unemployment. 2 patients remain completely abstinent for 4 years. Aside from
4 very short relapses for 2-3 days each a third patient remains abstinent as well. 66

Addiction - Longterm Results of the Magdeburg Pilot Study
Monday, Poster #169 (continued)
Ulf Mueller
DISCUSSION: DBS of the NAc showed to be safe and effective in this small
sample of 5 patients with a very severe treatment resistant alcohol addiction. As
relapses to drinking are considered to be a part of disease in this subsample of
severely ill patients, hard-reduction strategies such as reducing the days drinking
and drinks per day are increasingly being considered as a primary treatment
option. Therefore, our results even exceed this goal clearly in 3 out of 5 patients,
whereas the other patients still fulfil these criteria. Based on this favourable pilot
data, we believe that a randomized and sham-controlled clinical trial is justifiable
and required to further study the possibility of DBS as a novel treatment option
in alcohol addiction. The prospective, randomized, double-blinded and shamcontrolled multicenter study DeBraSTRA (Deep Brain Stimulation in Treatment
Resistant Alcoholism) has been authorized by federal authorities in Germany
and will be funded entirely independent from industries by the German Research
Foundation.

BACKGROUND: Prior studies have identified the selective GABAB receptor
agonist baclofen as a possible novel pharmacotherapy for alcohol dependence
(AD). We conducted a human laboratory study to investigate putative biobehavioral
mechanisms by which baclofen reduces drinking [attenuating urges to drink,
decreasing attention to alcohol cues, attenuating pleasurable affects of alcohol
and/or increasing the aversive effects of alcohol, attenuating pleasurable effects
of slip]; by ways of a cue-reactivity (CR) experiment, followed by an alcohol
self-administration (ASA) experiment. METHODS: This was a between-subject double-blind randomized controlled
pilot trial. We enrolled 14 non-treatment seeking alcohol dependent (AD)
participants who received baclofen 10mg t.i.d. or an ‘active’ placebo (i.e. cyproheptadine 2mg t.i.d.) for 8 days. Then, participants came to our lab to
perform a session consisting of an alcohol cue-reactivity (CR) experiment,
followed by an alcohol self-administration (ASA) experiment. Measurements of
craving [Alcohol Use Questionnaire (AUQ)], attention [Alcohol Attention Scale
(AAS)], salivation, sedation and stimulation [Biphasic Alcohol Effects Scale
(BAES)] were performed. Moreover, stress-related hormones were determined,
i.e. cortisol, prolactin (PRL) and growth hormone (GH). RESULTS: 13 out of the 14 participants completed the laboratory session. No
severe or serious side effects were reported during the study. There were no
significant differences in terms of craving or attention during the CR. As for
stimulation and sedation, we found an increase in the baclofen group compared
to placebo, stimulation: F(1,92)= 32.4, p<.001 and for sedation, F(1,88)=28.53,
p<.001. During the ASA, we found an effect size d of .76, t(6.4)=1.43 with means

of 1.43 vs. 0.17 drinks with p=.20. Furthermore, we found a similar robust effect
size t(12)=1.20, p=.25 of reported drinking during the two days before the ASA. We also found that after controlling for baseline GH, there was a trend toward
significance for the baclofen group and lower GH [r(5)=-.70, p=.08; repeated
measures ANCOVAs for GH determined between CR and ASA]. At the end of
the ASA, GH levels also correlated positively with the AUQ craving score r(7) =
0.76, p=.03. DISCUSSION: Although the small sample size, there was a non-significant
trend toward statistical significance with a robust effect (d=0.76) in the amount
of alcohol consumed during the ASA as well as in reducing standard drinking
units (SDUs) consumed on the two days prior to the lab session (after baclofen
dose was titrated up). Also, this study design was unique in that this is one of the
first studies to conduct the ASA after the CR experiment, resulting in additional
alcohol cues other than the priming drink in the ASA. Of particular interest is
baclofen’s effects on stimulation and sedation during the ASA. It’s been suggested
that baclofen reduces alcohol drinking by reducing the individual’s craving for
alcohol. This study shows that the reduction in craving might be secondary to
the stimulation and sedation effects from baclofen. Interestingly, sedation was
‘controlled’ for by using an ‘active’ placebo that induces sedation. Additionally,
the trend toward significance in lower GH levels for baclofen group and the
positive correlation between the AUQ scores and GH levels at the end of the ASA
suggest a possible link between lower GH and a reduction in alcohol drinking. These several mechanisms may account for the ability of baclofen to reduce
alcohol drinking even after individuals have been exposed to alcohol cues and
have received an alcohol ‘priming’ (a model of ‘lapse’). Future research is needed
to investigate these preliminary findings.

Ketamine for Treatment-Refractory Obsessive-Compulsive
Disorder
Tuesday, Poster #178

BACKGROUND: Roughly one-third of patients with obsessive-compulsive
disorder (OCD) experience little clinical benefit from first-line interventions
such as pharmacotherapy with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)
or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Furthermore, the full treatment benefits
of first-line interventions are only realized after two to three months. Limited
symptom relief and delay of symptom relief from first-line treatments are sources
of substantial morbidity and decreased quality of life in OCD patients. Convergent
evidence from neuroimaging, genetic and pharmacological studies suggests that
glutamate abnormalities may contribute to the pathogenesis/or pathophysiology
of OCD. Ketamine is a potent noncompetitive antagonist of the N-methyl-Daspartate (NMDA) receptor, a major type of glutamate receptor in the brain. Several trials have reported that a single dose of ketamine (0.5 mg/kg, delivered
intravenously over 40 minutes) had rapid antidepressant effects in depressed
patients.
METHODS: We conducted a pilot, open-label trial of ketamine (0.5mg/kg IV
over 40 minutes) in patients with treatment-refractory OCD. Patients had severe
OCD symptoms (Y-BOCS>24) despite at least two SSRI trials of adequate dose
and duration. Clinical ratings of OCD (Y-BOCS) and depression (HAM-D) were
performed at baseline, 1, 2 and 3 hours and 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 days after ketamine
infusion. Response for OCD was defined as a greater than 35% improvement
in symptoms from baseline at any time between 1-7 days following infusion. Response in depressive symptoms was defined as a greater than 50% reduction
in HAM-D ratings from baseline anytime between 1-7 days following infusion. RESULTS: We enrolled 8 patients with treatment-refractory OCD (6 with
comorbid depression). None experienced a clinical response in OCD symptoms
during the week following ketamine infusion. On average, the reduction of OCD

symptoms peaked 1 day following infusion (improving by 10±12%; not
significant). By contrast, 3 of 6 patients with OCD and comorbid depression
experienced a clinical response in their depressive symptoms. Improvement in
depressive symptoms peaked 2 days following ketamine infusion with a 45±40%
average reduction in symptoms (p=0.04). DISCUSSION: We observed a clear dissociation between OCD and depressive
symptoms in response to ketamine infusion. This pilot trial demonstrates no
effect of ketamine, an NMDA antagonist, in the treatment of OCD. By contrast,
we demonstrate a potent, though short-lived, antidepressant effect of ketamine
infusion, consistent with previous studies.

The Alpha7 Neuronal Nicotinic Receptor (NNR) Modulator TC5619 had Beneficial Effects and was Generally Well tolerated in
a Phase 2 Trial in Cognitive Dysfunction in Schizophrenia (CDS)
Monday, Poster #48

BACKGROUND: TC-5619 is a selective alpha7 NNR modulator. TC-5619 had
efficacy in preclinical models of memory and schizophrenia1 and was generally
well tolerated in phase 1 trials in healthy volunteers, demonstrating a robust
improvement in attention at 6.8mg in a multiple rising dose study. This trial
tested the effect of TC-5619 on cognitive and negative symptoms in subjects with
schizophrenia. METHODS: In the US and India 185 outpatients (18 – 65 years; male 69%; 46%
tobacco users) with stable schizophrenia and taking quetiapine or risperidone
were randomized to 12 weeks of placebo (n = 91) or TC-5619 (n = 94: 1mg po qd
Day 1 to Week 4; 5mg po qd Week 4 to Week 8; 25 mg po qd Week 8 to Week 12). The primary outcome measure tested executive function at Weeks 4, 8 and 12:
Groton Maze Learning Task (GMLT) of the computerized CogState Schizophrenia
Battery (CSB). Secondary outcome measures included: CSB composite score;
Scale for Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS); CGI-Global Impression
(CGI-I); CGI-Severity (CGI-S); Subject Global Impression–Cognition (subjectrated scale assessing Speed of Thinking, Memory & Attention). Safety measures
included: AEs; physical exam; vital signs; serum and urine labs; ECG; Abnormal
Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS); Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale
(CSSRS); and Calgary Depression Scale for Schizophrenia (CDSS). RESULTS: Blinded GMLT data showed a positive skew; all GMLT data were
log(10) transformed. GMLT results favored TC-5619 (Hochberg adjusted p =
0.054) and met predefined success criteria (1-sided p < 0.10). SANS, CGI-I and
SGI-Cog results favored TC-5619 (unadjusted p < 0.05) on a measurement date. The effect was driven primarily by tobacco users. TC-5619 was generally well
tolerated and there were no noteworthy safety findings. 72

EVP-6124, an Alpha-7 Nicotinic Partial Agonist, produces
Positive Effects on Cognition, Clinical Function, and Negative
Symptoms in Patients with Chronic Schizophrenia on Stable
Antipsychotic Therapy

BACKGROUND: Patients with schizophrenia have residual cognitive deficits,
even after treatment with available antipsychotic therapies. Currently, several
procognitive therapies are under development, including agonists of the alpha-7
nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptor (N-A7A). These receptors are located in
several brain areas involved in various domains of cognition, including attention
and long term and working memory. EVP-6124 is a novel, potent, and selective
N-A7A agonist. Nine clinical studies with EVP-6124 have been completed in 561
unique subjects. Of these, 403 received EVP-6124 and 158 received placebo. In
these studies, EVP-6124 was safe and well-tolerated and exhibited linear kinetics
with a long half-life (>60 hours) suitable for once daily dosing. METHODS: A Phase 2b study in participants with schizophrenia (n=319)
receiving stable chronic atypical antipsychotic therapy has recently been
completed. The study assessed the safety and efficacy of two doses of EVP-6124
(0.3 and 1 mg once daily) versus placebo. Efficacy was evaluated by quantitative
cognitive measurements using the Overall Cognition Index (OCI) from the
CogState testing battery and Trails 2 and 4 of the Neuropsychological Test Battery
(NTB) (all subjects), the MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB)
(only in a subset of subjects enrolled in the US), the Schizophrenia Cognition
Rating Scale (SCoRS) and the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Statistical results, as defined in the protocol, were considered significant at
P < 0.10 (one-sided tests). RESULTS: Patients with chronic stable schizophrenia, both smokers and nonsmokers, treated with stable doses of an antipsychotic drug other than clozapine
for at least 4 weeks before screening were treated with either placebo (n=106),

0.3 mg/d (n=107) or 1 mg/d (n=106) of EVP-6124 for a total of 84 days. Participants
with a score of >4 on the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (PBRS) were excluded
from enrollment. Approximately 54 % of the subjects were enrolled in the US. Participants were 18 to 55 years of age (both inclusive) at screening. Most of the
subjects were male (68%) and white (66%). The drug was well tolerated; there
were no clinically significant findings with respect to 12 lead ECGs, vital signs,
hematology, and serum chemistry evaluations or suicidal ideation and behavior. A total of 192 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported in 101
(31.9%) subjects, including 25 (23.4%) subjects in the 0.3 mg dose group, 35
(33.3%) subjects in the 1 mg dose group, and 41 (39%) subjects in the placebo
group. The most commonly reported TEAEs were headache (3.8%), nausea
(3.2%) and nosopharyngitis (2.5%). The incidence of serious adverse events
was similar among the three dosing groups; none were judged related to drug. The OCI plus Trails 2 and 4 suggested that 0.3 mg of EVP-6124, compared to
placebo, was associated with improvement in general cognitive function (P =
0.034) and that this improvement was due mainly to the beneficial effects of the
drug on visual learning, visual attention, and social cognition. The effect on the
OCI (minus Trails 2 and 4) was also significantly different among the treatment
groups (P = 0.05); further analysis indicated this was due to greater improvement
in the 0.3 mg dose group compared to placebo (P = 0.009). This positive effect
on the OCI was supported by a strong positive trend (NS) for improved cognition
on the MCCB Battery which was performed only in the US in a subset of patients
(n=166). For the 1 mg dose group, the mean change from baseline at day 84 in
the overall Composite T-score and the associated percentile change, respectively
(3.6;5.7), was higher than for the 0.3 mg dose group (3.0;2.6) and placebo group
(1.8;2.3). Significant effects in clinical function were also seen with EVP-6124

treatment as measured by the SCoRS Interviewer Rating of clinical function. The mean change from baseline in the SCoRS Interviewer Rating, over all visits,
between the 1 mg dose group and the placebo group was significant (P = 0.065). Improvement was also seen in the negative symptoms of schizophrenia (derived
from the PANSS). For the negative subscale of the PANSS, mean decreases were
greater in the 1 mg EVP-6124 group compared to the placebo group (P = 0.028 at
end of study versus baseline; P = 0.117 over all visits). DISCUSSION: In this study, EVP-6124 treatment of subjects with stable
schizophrenia resulted in improved cognition and clinical function, and
decreased negative symptoms. In addition, EVP-6124 was well tolerated in this
population. The beneficial effects of EVP-6124 will be further investigated in
larger confirmatory studies.

Gradual and Overlapping Antipsychotic Switch Strategies are
associated with less All-Cause Discontinuation in Schizophrenia:
Results from a Meta-analysis of Different Switch Strategies
Monday, Poster #173

BACKGROUND: Antipsychotic switching is common in schizophrenia. However, randomized, controlled trials (RCTs) of different switch strategies have
been scarce and inconsistent. METHODS: Meta-analysis of RCTs comparing different switch strategies in
schizophrenia, defined by abrupt vs. slow initiation or discontinuation of the
pre-switch or post-switch antipsychotic and by type of overlap (absent, partial
or full=“plateau”). Primary outcome was all-cause discontinuation; secondary
outcomes included specific-cause discontinuation, psychopathology and adverse
effects. Pooled relative risk (RR) [+/-95%CIs] was calculated using randomeffects model, with numbers-needed-to-treat/harm (NNT/NNH) calculations
where appropriate. RESULTS: In eight trials, 1162 patients were randomized to 2 or 3 of 5 different
switch strategies. Significantly more patients discontinued treatment with a) abrupt
vs. gradual initiation of the post-switch antipsychotic (N=2, n=467, RR:2.49
(CI:1.43,4.35), p=0.001; NNH=14 (CI:9-33); b) abrupt vs. gradual discontinuation
of the pre-switch antipsychotic (N=7, n=1109, RR:1.28 (CI:1.08,1.51), p=0.004;
NNH=16 (CI:9-100), and c) non-plateau vs. plateau-switching (N=5, n=587,
RR:1.42 (CI:1.12,1.79], p=0.003; NNH=11 (CI:7-25). Non-overlapping vs. partially/fully overlapping switching lead to significantly greater dropout when
switching from atypical to atypical antipsychotics (N=4, n=683, p=0.03), but not
when switching from typical to atypical antipsychotic (N=4, n=426, p=0.39). Global psychopathology changes did not differ across different switch strategies
(p=0.49-0.98), but few data were meta-analyzable (N=1-3, n=52-257). Abrupt vs. gradual discontinuation was associated with more insomnia (RR:2.61 (CI:1.07,
6.41; NNH 10 (CI:6-100), while abrupt vs. gradual initiation was associated with
less akathisia (RR:0.61 (CI:0.39, 0.96); NNH=-13 (CI:-7 to -100). 77

The Hypo-Functional 7-Repeat Allele of DRD4 predicts both
Objective and Reported Fat Intake in 4- to 6- Year Old Girls

BACKGROUND: The prevention and treatment of overeating and obesity
continues to be a major challenge. While the ease of availability of highly palatable
foods is a major factor in this regard, not all individuals overeat or become obese in
this environment. The current project examines individual differences in palatable
food intake at a critical time in human development. The current analysis studies
the relationship between dopamine genes and eating ehavior in children from 4
to 6 years of age. A particular focus is the hypo-functional 7-repeat (7R) allele
of the dopamine-4 receptor gene (DRD4), which associates with overeating and
obesity in several female overeater populations (e.g. Levitan et al, 2004, 2006,
2010). Recent imaging work suggests that weaker activation of the brain’s reward
circuitry may play a role in these associations (Stice et al, 2010). METHODS: The current sample consists of children taking part in a longitudinal
cohort study (Maternal Adversity, Vulnerability and Neurodevelopment) based in
Canada. The mothers of the children, oversampled based on maternal depression
and low SES, were recruited at 13-120 weeks of pregnancy, and the children
have been followed intensively since birth. Key outcome measures include: 1. A laboratory-based snack test at 48 months of age which provides an objective
measure of food preferences and overall caloric intake. 2. A food frequency
questionnaire at 48 and 72 months, based on maternal report, which assesses
naturalistic food intake and feeding behavior. 3. The childhood eating behavior
questionnaire (CEBQ; Wardle et al, 2001) which measures eating styles likely to
promote over- or under-weight. RESULTS: To date, 118 children have completed the 48 month snack test in the
lab. Of these, 47 (39.8%) carry the 7R allele, while 71 (60.2%) do not. Controlling
for total caloric intake, there is a significant gender X genotype interaction in

predicting fat intake during the snack test (F=7.16, df = 4, 113, p=.009). Girls
who carry the 7R variant are consuming 31.2 % more fat during this snack
than are non-carriers (mean=12.2 vs. 9.3 grams respectively) while in boys, 7R
carriers are eating 19.2% less fat than are non-carriers (mean=11.3 vs. 13.5 grams
respectively). This suggests that the 7R allele increases objective fat intake in girls
but not boys by four years of age. Strikingly, when intake is measured using the
48 and 72 month food diaries, which were completed two years apart, the gender
X 7R interaction is even more robust, accounting for 21 % of the variance in fat
intake (F=11.3, df=3, 42; p=.002; N=46). Based on these diaries, girls who carry
the 7R allele are consuming 39.8% more fat in their natural environments at 48
months than are non-7R carrier girls (820.5 vs. 587.0 calories/day respectively). Importantly, this difference remains robust at 72 months of age (881.5 calories as
fat in 7R carriers vs. 609.2 calories as fat in non-carriers, a 44.7 % difference). In boys, 7R carriers are consuming 40.1 % less calories from fat than are noncarriers at 48 months, and 25.4 less calories from fat at 72 months based on these
diaries. The consistency of these data across both laboratory based measures and
food diaries, and the consistency of the food diary data over a two year time
span, adds greatly to these findings. These findings are also highly consistent with
earlier work in female adult overeater populations (see above). DISCUSSION: These converging results show a highly robust association
between the hypo-functional 7R allele of DRD4 and fat intake in girls, but not
boys. The consistency of these findings across different outcome measures and
across a two year age span adds greatly to their validity and potential impact. Pending replication and detailed anthropomorphic outcomes later in childhood,
these results may identify a significant subgroup of young girls at higher risk
for childhood obesity and/or eating disorders. If so, this could inform novel
prevention strategies implemented as early as birth in this subgroup.

Rapidly Acting Chemical Antidepressants
PL Dennis Charney
Mount Sinai School of Medicine
This presentation will review the clinical data indicating that ketamine and
scopolamine have rapid (within hours) antidepressant effects in patients with
treatment resistant depression. Putative mechanisms underlying these clinical
effects will be discussed. A theoretical synthesis will be developed as a guide for
the discovery of a new generation of antidepressant drugs.
Dr. Charney’s distinguished career as a researcher and educator began in 1981
at Yale University School of Medicine. While at Yale, Dr. Charney chaired the
National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) Board of Scientific Counselors,
which advises the institute’s director on intramural research programs. In 2000
NIMH recruited Dr. Charney to lead the Mood and Anxiety Disorder Research
Program — one of the largest programs of its kind in the world — and the
Experimental Therapeutics and Pathophysiology Branch. That same year Dr. Charney was elected to the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of
Sciences. 84

Rethinking Depression and its Treatment: Insights from Studies
of Deep Brain Stimulation
Helen Mayberg
Emory University School of Medicine
Critical to the development of deep brain stimulation (DBS) as a novel therapy for
patients with treatment resistant depression has been the further characterization
of brain systems mediating normal and abnormal mood states as well as those
mediating successful and unsuccessful response to various antidepressant
interventions using functional neuroimaging. Building on converging evidence
implicating the subcallosal cingulate as a critical node within an imaging-based,
putative depression network model, the subcallosal cingulate white matter was
targeted for initial proof-of-principle testing of DBS in patients with treatment
resistant major depression, adopting neuromodulation techniques routinely used
to treat Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders. The theoretical and
data-driven foundation for this new treatment strategy as well as results from
ongoing experimental studies will be presented. Dr. Mayberg is Professor of Neurology and Psychiatry and the Dorothy C. Fuqua
Chair in Psychiatric Neuroimaging and Therapeutics at the Emory University
School of Medicine where she has an active research program in the neuroimaging
of depression. Dr. Mayberg is a neurologist, trained at Columbia’s Neurological
Institute in New York, with fellowship training in nuclear medicine at Johns

Viral-Mediated Gene Therapy for Neuropsychiatric Disorders
PL Michael Kaplitt
Weill Cornell Medical College
Gene therapy has held increasing promise in recent years as a novel approach
to neurological disorders. An important factor in the evolution of clinical gene
therapy for neurological diseases has been identification of important focal targets
within the brain which may widely influence dysfunctional circuitry essential to
the pathophysiology of specific maladies. Animal models and sophisticated human
functional brain imaging have in recent years led to a greater understanding of
circuits and focal brain regions which are dysfunctional in a variety of psychiatric
disorders. With increasing application of gene therapy to the human brain, and
our recent demonstration of the first successful randomized, double-blind, sham
surgery controlled clinical trial of gene therapy for a neurological disorder,
the possibility of clinical translation of this approach to psychiatric diseases is
now more realistic than previously contemplated. A variety of genes have been
altered with gene therapy agents over the years in animal models of psychiatric
disorders. Here we will focus on one gene, p11, as an example of how gene
therapy may evolve for psychiatric diseases. This gene was originally identified
by Paul Greengard and colleagues as a potential binding partner modulating the
activity of specific serotonin receptor subtypes. Mice lacking p11 (p11 KO mice)
manifest depression-like behaviors. Utilizing adeno associated virus (AAV)mediated gene therapy, we demonstrated that focal blockade of p11 expression
exclusively in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) of otherwise normal adult mice
resulted in depression-like behaviors similar to p11 KO mice. Focal restoration
of p11 expression only in the NAc of p11 KO mice using gene therapy then
reversed the depression-like behaviors, suggesting that this may be a potential
therapy for human depression if p11 is relevant to this disorder. To this end, in
collaboration with Carol Tamminga and Per Svenningson, we observed that NAc
p11 expression was in fact significantly lower in post-mortem brain specimens
from depressed human patients compared with matched controls, suggesting
that p11 deficiency in the NAc is a characteristic of human depression. We are
currently collaborating with investigators at the National Institutes of Mental
Health to examine NAc p11 gene therapy in non-human primates, to generate
initial data which may eventually support a human clinical trial. The other key

region currently of interest in depression, particularly for surgical interventions,
is the subgenual cingulate cortex (BA 25). Human functional imaging suggests
that increased activity of BA25 is associated with major depression, as opposed
to reduced activity of the NAc. Interestingly, we have recently demonstrated
that focal knockdown of p11 using gene transfer in the rodent equivalent of
BA25 (infralimbic cortex) also has a different effect than in the NAc, with no
effect on baseline depression but a potentiation of the action of anti-depressant
medications.
Finally, we have collaborated with Scott Russo and Eric Nestler to demonstrate
that p11 KO mice have increased susceptibility to cocaine using a placepreference model (CPP). Again p11 gene therapy in the NAc reduced CPP in
both p11 KO mice and in normal mice, suggesting that this may be an unusual
treatment which could block addictive behaviors while improve depressionlike behaviors as well. Ongoing development of psychosurgery and functional
imaging, along with greater experience with gene therapy in the human brain,
should help facilitate translation of this technique into clinical application for
refractory psychiatric diseases in the near future.

Using Human Stem Cells to Understand and Treat Diseases of
the Brain
Lawrence Goldstein
University of California, San Diego, School of Medicine
Stem cell technologies bring new and powerful opportunities to understand
and treat previously untreatable brain disorders. In my talk, I will discuss how
we are trying to use human embryonic and other types of stem cells to develop
new methods to understand, and eventually treat Lou Gehrig’s Disease (ALS),
Alzheimer’s Disease, and other related diseases of the brain by generating new
approaches for drug discovery or therapy. For example, Alzheimer’s Disease is
a severe, progressive, and incurable disease characterized by memory loss and
dementia. Although common pathological features of the disorder are known,
their relationship to the development of the disease remains problematic. Rare
hereditary forms of Alzheimer’s Disease identify genetic changes that can
cause disease. In one approach, we are working to generate human neurons
from human stem cells that carry the genetic changes that can cause hereditary
Alzheimer’s Disease to try and test several ideas about what causes this terrible
disease. However, the relationship of hereditary forms of Alzheimer’s Disease
to the common “sporadic” form of the disease remains unclear. Human stem
cell technology letting us begin to probe the relationship of the two forms of the
disease. A second example of an approach we are taking is from ALS, which is
characterized by progressive loss of the cells that control movement, resulting in
paralysis and ultimately death. We have been working to identify which cells are
at fault in this disease, and have begun to develop methods that might allow stem
cells to someday be used for therapeutic intervention.

A Method for Innovative Thinking as Applied to
Neuropsychopharmacology
Chair: Mark H. Rapaport
Presented by: Roberta Ness
Innovation, defined as creativity with a purpose, is widely considered to be the
engine of scientific progress. Although technical inventions in the last generation
have transformed everyday life, novel solutions to some of the greatest concerns
in neuropsychopharmacology (addiction, schizophrenia, intractable depression,
to name a few) remain less forthcoming. Indeed, American science in general was
deemed to be lagging in the “Principal ingredients of scientific innovation and
competitiveness – knowledge capital, human capital, and a creative ecosystem,”
when recently assessed by a blue ribbon Committee of the National Academies
of Science. That Committee, entitling its report, Rising Above the Gathering
Storm, opinioned that America is losing its international hegemony. Our normal mental tendency is to think in ways that are habitual and formulaic. Daring new solutions emerge only when we explode our ordinary patterns of
thought. You are familiar with the “war on cancer”. How would you react to the
alternative suggestion of “cancer as neighbor”? Crazy? Maybe not. In fact, this
alternative idea might lead to more rational policies toward cancer screening and
more humane approaches toward cancer treatment. Dr. Roberta Ness, Dean of
the University of Texas School of Public Health, describes Innovation Generation
a method she has developed for enhancing innovative thinking. Consisting of
a readily applicable toolbox, this method provides a means for enlarging the
innovative space within neuropsychopharmacology.

Insights into Circadian Clock and Sleep from Human Genetics
PL Louis J. Ptáček
University of California San Francisco
On planet earth, organisms have evolved mechanisms to synchronize metabolic
and physiological functions and behavior with the approximately twentyfour hour light/dark cycle of a day. These rhythms touch on our cognitive
performance, metabolism, immune and cardiovascular function, sleep/wake, and
other behaviors. Advanced sleep phase syndrome (ASPS) is a common alteration
in the biological sleep- and wake-time preferences in humans and is common in
aging individuals. As we get older, we tend to fall asleep and wake earlier then
we did in youth. A dramatic autosomal dominant form of ASPS (Familial ASPS,
FASPS)—distinct from the ASPS of aging—was described by our group. We
now know that FASPS affects 0.3% of the general population. Recognition of
this phenotype has allowed genetic studies to identify and characterize causative
mutations and to generate animal FASPS models. Disruption of the circadian
clock has also been linked to numerous ailments including cancer, cardiovascular
diseases, depression, and learning disorders. Thus, the investigation of the human
circadian and sleep mechanism promises enormous benefits to our understanding
of human health and disease. Studies in one intriguing family with FASPS led to
identification of a mutation in casein kinase Iδ (CKIδ). Remarkably, the mutation
in this family segregates not only with FASPS, but also with Asthma and Migraine
with Aura suggesting the possibility that this mutation causes these other
phenotypes too. We have the strong anecdotal impression that other behavioral
phenotypes are more common in FASPS individuals although study of such
phenotypes in humans is extremely difficult. The mouse models of human FASPS
mutations that we’ve generated are a resource for beginning to test hypotheses
suggested by observations in humans. More recently, we have also recognized
and begun collecting families with Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome (FDSPS) and
Familial Natural Short Sleep (FNSS). Identifying genes causing phase and sleep
phenotypes is beginning to shed light on the mysterious processes regulating
human sleep and this will have profound consequences for human health and
understanding and treatment of human diseases. Modeling human circadian and
sleep mutations in model systems is enabling parallel studies in humans carrying

such mutations with rodent and fly models to explore similarities and differences
between circadian clocks and sleep in different species. Ultimately such work
may lead to understanding of connections between human clock and various
diseases and behaviors and identification of novel therapeutic targets.
Dr. Ptácek’s laboratory focuses on genetic diseases of muscle, heart and brain
and hereditary variation of human sleep behavior. His group has cloned genes
causing many disease and behavioral phenotypes in humans. In addition, he and
his collaborators probe the biology underlying normal function of the encoded
proteins in the nervous system and pathophysiology of the mutant proteins in
human neurological diseases. To this end, they use cellular electrophysiology,
biochemistry, cell biology and animal modeling. He and Chris Jones identified
and characterized the first human families with a Mendelian circadian rhythm
variant. These individuals have an extreme “morning lark” phenotype and they
called this variant familial advanced sleep phase syndrome (FASPS). His group
and the group of Ying-Hui Fu have gone from the clinical and physiologic
characterization of this phenotype to the mapping and cloning of the causative
genes, biochemical study of the encoded proteins, and generation of animal
models. In addition, they have collected a large group of families with FASPS
and other circadian phenotypes, and these are being studied to identify additional
human circadian rhythm genes. They have also identified families with genetic
variants of sleep and begun to clone genes regulating the sleep hemostat. This
work represents a move from purely ‘disease genetics’ to the genetics of human
behavior. Insights into the proteins causing these disorders and traits will
ultimately lead to new insights into the normal function of the human nervous
system and mechanisms of disease. Ultimately, such insights will lead to new
therapies for treating patients with various neurological and other disorders.

DREADDed Decision-Making: Revealing a Role for the ‘Direct’
Pathway in Reward Preference.
Tuesday, Poster #37

Background: A central feature of many neuropsychiatric disorders, such as drug
addiction and obsessive-compulsive disorder, is the development of aberrant
reinforcement learning and decision-making processes. Dysregulation of the
striatum is thought to contribute to these disorders; however, the striatum is a
heterogeneous structure containing distinct populations of GABAergic medium
spiny projection neurons(MSNs) that differ in their neuropeptide composition
and form two major efferent pathways. MSNs that contain the neuropeptides
dynorphin and substance P are part of the striatonigral, or ‘direct’, pathway whereas
MSNs that contain the neuropeptide enkephalin are part of the striatopallidal, or
‘indirect’, pathway. The roles of these specific striatal sub-types in reinforcement
learning and decision-making are not yet known. As a first step toward addressing
this question, we used a novel chemical-genetic approach to determine how
modulating activity of the striatonigral pathway would change preferences in a PL
high versus low reward decision-making task. Methods: Briefly, we developed viral vectors that use the preprodynorphin
promoter to target expression of hemagluttin-tagged Gi/o-coupled DREADD
(Designer Receptor Exclusively Activated by a Designer Drug) receptors or
hemagluttin-tagged Gs-coupled DREADD receptors to striatonigral neurons. Activation of Gi/o-DREADD receptors allows for transient reduction of neuronal
excitability whereas activation of Gs-DREADD receptors allows for transient
increases in neuronal excitability using the pharmacologically inert synthetic
ligand clozapine-N-oxide (CNO). Results: After viral infusion and DREADD receptor expression into the
dorsomedial striatum of Long Evans rats, we found that decreasing activity of
striatonigral neurons impaired the acquisition of a high-reward preference in a
decision-making task for small versus large magnitude natural rewards (i.e., 1
or 4 food pellets) whereas transiently increasing activity of striatonigral neurons

produced the opposite effect. However, altering activity of striatonigral neurons
had no effect on performance in this decision-making task once the high-reward
preference was established. Discussion: These findings demonstrate that the ‘direct’ pathway is an important
modulator of decision-making processes related to reward choice. They also
support the idea that striatal dysregulation contributes to the development of
aberrant reinforcement learning and decision-making that is common among
neuropsychiatric disorders.

Background: The pro-inflammatory cytokine Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is increased
in patients with major depressive disorder (Dowlati et al., 2009). It is currently
unknown whether IL-6 levels are altered as a result of a depressive episode or
whether IL-6 is functionally involved in the etiology of depression. Methods: Using multiplex enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA)
we examined circulating levels of cytokines in humans experiencing their first
depressive episode or those with chronic major depressive disorder (CMDD). We
then conducted further validation of blood and brain levels of IL-6 after repeated
social defeat stress, a mouse model of depression. We also tested whether
alterations of IL-6 levels in the Nucleus Accumbens (NAc) were sufficient to
induce susceptibility to stress. IL-6 was infused into the NAc and depressionlike behavior was examined following a one-day micro-defeat, a stress paradigm
that does not induce depression-like behavior in control animals. Additionally, to
further understand the mechanism of IL-6 induction in NAc, we examined gene
expression profiles of inflammatory signaling pathways in mice exposed to social
defeat and in post-mortem tissue from subjects with major depression. Results: We found a similar increase in circulating levels of IL-6 in both
susceptible mice exposed to repeated social defeat stress and in CMDD patients
(p < 0.05), but not in resilient mice or in patients experiencing a single depressive
episode (p > 0.05). Standard antidepressant treatment did not alter IL-6 levels in
either susceptible mice or CMDD patients (p > 0.05). A more detailed analysis of
the time course of IL-6 induction in susceptible mice showed a 150 fold increase
in blood levels of IL-6 30 min after their first social defeat compared to animals
that displayed resiliency to social stress (p < 0.05). We also found that IL-6 levels
were elevated in the blood (p < 0.05) and NAc (p < 0.05) of susceptible mice 48
hours after the last social defeat. Providing a functional role for this induction,
we found that infusion of IL-6 directly into the NAc increased susceptibility to a

micro-defeat (p < 0.05). Surprisingly, transcription of IL-6 and its receptors was
decreased in the NAc of both susceptible and resilient mice, and in postmortem
NAc from humans with depression (p < 0.05). These data indicate that the source
of elevated NAc IL-6 protein is not from local production and we are currently
examining what the source may be. Discussion: Based on these results, we feel that repeated social defeat stress has
strong validity as a model for CMDD, especially when examining the role of
cytokines in depression. Our mouse model indicates that elevations in IL-6 blood
levels immediately after a single stressful experience may be a good biomarker for
susceptibility to stress. A single IL-6 infusion in the NAc prior to a sub-threshold
micro-defeat induced depression associated behavior indicating a functional
role for IL-6 in susceptibility to stress. While IL-6 protein levels in the NAc
were increased in animals susceptible to the effects of social defeat stress, gene
expression data indicated that local transcription of IL-6 was decreased, which
suggests that the source is likely from the periphery or other brain structures. Overall, our data suggests that individual differences in the IL-6 response to a
stressful experience may mediate the development of depression. Given the higher
levels of IL-6 in the blood of patients with CMDD and the lack of regulation
by traditional antidepressants, IL-6 may be a novel target for drug development
with great potential for use in subsets of patient with dysregulated inflammatory
pathways.

The Impact of Placebo on IL-18 and its Relation to Analgesic
Expectation and Central μ-Opioid Receptor Activation
Tuesday, Poster #219

Zubieta Department of Psychiatry, University of Michigan
Background: Existing evidence implicates IL-1 family pro-inflammatory
cytokines (i.e. IL-1ß, IL-18) in their association with negative affective states (i.e. pain, depression). In animal models and humans, peripheral injection of IL-1ß
has been identified as having a hypernociceptive effects and as being associated
with negative affective state. These effects are blocked by peripheral injection
of an IL-1ß antagonist, IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) in animal models. Such
effects (i.e. IL-1ß’s hypernociception and its reversal by IL-1ra) have been shown
to result in part through effects on endogenous opioid neurotransmission in animal
models. Another IL-1 family cytokine, namely IL-18, is structurally similat to
IL-1ß and induces pro-nociceptive cytokines, including IL-1ß. However, few
studies have investigated IL-18 for its nociceptive (or negative affective) effects. Placebos have been shown to exert powerful effects on mood and pain, albeit the
interface between placebo-induced neurobiological responses and inflammatory PL
mechanisms is poorly understood, and barely examined either in animal models
or in humans. Methods: We applied a standardized sustained pain model within a PET
neuroimaging paradigm using the μ-opioid receptor selective radiotracer [11C]
Carfentanil (CFN), to determine the relation between plasma IL-18 concentration
(as measured by standard ELISA techniques) and endogenous opioid
neurotransmitter responses to a pain-stress challenge in the presence or absence
of placebo administration (isotonic saline iv with expectations of analgesic
efficacy). Following PET scanning subjects rated their pain experience using the
McGill Pain Questionnaire and measures of pain intensity. Results: We observed a significant placebo induced reduction in IL-18 plasma
levels (p<0.001). Also, placebo-induced reductions on IL-18 plasma levels were
significantly correlated with the expected magnitude of placebo effect, as subjectively
rated by the volunteers (r=0.485,p<0.012). and placebo-induced activation of

-10,2; Z1,65=4.62; puncorr=0.000).
Discussion: These findings are consistent with an effect of placebo administration
on pro-inflammatory cytokines in humans in the context of expectations of
analgesia, and relationships between those effects and a neurotransmitter system,
the endogenous opioid and μ-opioid receptors, involved in pain, stress and mood
regulation.

Motivational Saliency Signal in Ventral Striatum is Modulated
by Genetic Variation in the ARC Gene Region
Tuesday, Poster #75

National Institute of Mental Health, NIH
Background: In humans, reward anticipation has been shown to reliably and
robustly evoke activation in the ventral striatum (vSTR). Using fMRI, we have
previously demonstrated that activation in the vSTR during reward anticipation
corresponds to motivational saliency, as cues associated with greater motivational
value, rather than reward value per se, evoke greater vSTR signal than cues
associated with less motivational value. Based on animal research, such a signal
in the vSTR is likely generated by dopamine neurotransmission and/or dopamine
modulation of glutamatergic neurotransmission; however, this information
cannot be ascertained using traditional fMRI techniques in humans. In the current
study, we used “imaging genetics” to investigate the influence of dopaminergic
and glutamatergic related genetic variations on the motivational saliency signal
in the vSTR. Methods: During fMRI (3T scanner), 80 healthy participants performed an
adapted Monetary Incentive Delay task, in which reward cues informed subjects
of upcoming target difficulty in order to manipulate motivation. On each trial,
subjects responded, via single button press, to a visually presented target. On
reward trials, each successful response resulted in the receipt of $2 (represented
visually). Just prior to target appearance, participants were shown one of two cues
predicting potential reward: one associated with relatively higher motivational
value (a shorter response window) and one associated with relatively lower
motivational value (a longer response window). A control cue was not predictive
of a reward or difficulty. The imaging data were subjected to an event-related,
random-effects analysis, with a particular interest focused on neural activity
associated cue presentation. Individual first level contrasts were created for the
main effect of motivational value (high motivational value cue > low motivational
value cue) and were then entered into a second-level regression analysis to assess

the influence of selected genetic variations in dopaminergic and glutamatergic
system genes on related neural activity. Gender, age, and IQ were entered into the
model as regressors of no-interest to remove these potential confounds. Statistical
maps were thresholded at p < 0.05, corrected for multiple comparisons across
voxels. Results: Participants responded significantly faster to the cues associated
with higher motivational value compared to lower motivational value and no
motivational value (non-reward predicting control cues). In concordance with
previous investigations, high motivational value cues elicited significantly greater
activation in the vSTR compared to cues associated with low motivational value. Using a regression analysis, we found that a single nucleotide polymorphism
(SNP) downstream, yet in close proximity, to the ARC gene (rs9324593),
predicted the vSTR response to motivational salience, with the G allele being
associated with significantly greater vSTR BOLD signal. Discussion: ARC protein expression is activity dependent and is involved in the
endocytosis of AMPA receptors. While the effect of the rs9324593 SNP on ARC
protein is still under investigation, these results highlight a genetic variation with
potential functionality in the glutamatergic system that may account for individual
differences in the neural coding of motivational value. It is striking that of the
genetic variations studied here, a genetic variation related to the glutamatergic
system, rather than the highly hypothesized dopaminergic system, accounted
for the most variability in vSTR reactivity to motivational value. These findings
shed light on the genetic influence on neural activity underlying the evaluation
of motivationally valuable stimuli, which is highly relevant to the elucidation of
the neurobiology of mental illnesses that involve deficits in the proper evaluation
of motivationally important stimuli, including schizophrenia and drug addiction.

Dopamine Transporter Knockdown Mice exhibit Poorer
Within-Session Risk Learning in a Mouse Iowa Gambling Task
Consistent with Bipolar Mania Patients
Tuesday, Poster #35
Jared W. Young, Jordy van Enkhuizen, Mark A. Geyer
University of California, San Diego
Background: Patients with Bipolar Disorder (BD) mania exhibit a range of
symptoms that contribute to many of the difficulties they face throughout their
lives. During manic episodes, patients exhibit risk-taking behaviors that are
detrimental to their well-being, including high-risk gambling. This behaviorcan
be quantified using the Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) and is not currently treated
adequately, as evidenced by the fact that poor IGT performance is also observed
during periods of euthymia. The IGT requires subjects to learn within a session
to select options that provide lower reinforcement because there is less associated
risk and more gained overall. BD patients do not learn this rule to the same level
as healthy comparison subjects. Animal models of this impaired learning are
required in order to test for novel treatments for this symptom. We have described
dopamine transporter (DAT) knockdown (KD) mice that exhibit an aberrant profile
of exploratory behavior that is consistent with BD mania patients when assessed in
the mouse and human Behavioral Pattern Monitors (BPM) respectively. Moreover,
the reduced DAT levels in unmedicated subjects with BD support the etiological
validity of this model. To further examine the similarity of this model to mania,
we 1) replicated our findings of abnormal exploration in the BPM using mice
backcrossed onto the C57BL/6 strain, and 2) tested the risk learning behavior of
these mice in a mouse version of the within-session learning IGT. Methods: After testing in the BPM, male DAT wildtype (WT) and KD (n=28 and
31 respectively) littermates were trained to holepoke for a single food reward in
any 1 of 4 locations. The reward contingencies were altered for a single 60 min
IGT session whereby 2 locations provided 2 rewards but also long punishment
durations (flashing light), while the other 2 locations continued to provide only 1
reward but with short punishment durations. Holepokes into each location were
rewarded and punished randomly on similar schedules. Good, intermediate, and

poor learners were quantified by taking % good choices (% holepokes into the
low reward holes from total holepokes) of the third trial period from the % good
choices from the first trial period and stratifying them as 1) >0.5, 2) between
0.5 and -0.5, and 3) <0.5 standard deviations from the mean respectively. IGT
performance was analyzed using a repeated measures ANOVA with gene and
group as between-subjects factors and trial period as the within subject factor. BPM performance was analyzed using a one-way ANOVA with gene as the
between-subjects factor. Significant main effects and interactions were subjected
to Tukey post hoc analyses.
Results: DAT KD mice exhibited increased activity (F(1,52)=46.3, p<0.0001)
and exploration (F(1,52)=4.9, p<0.05), as well as more straight-line patterns of
movement (F(1,52)=6.0, p<0.05) in the BPM. When tested in the IGT, there were
more WT (39%) than KD (29%) mice in the good learners group, despite % good
choices not differing between the 3 groups during trial period 1 (F(2,53)=1.5, ns). Although both WT (F(2,20)=13.3, p<0.0001)and KD (F(2,16)=11.0, p<0.005)
mice exhibited risk-related learning in the IGT, WT mice exhibited a trend for
more % good choices when compared with KD mice (F(1,18)=3.9, p=0.064). The
% good choices of WT and KD mice in the intermediate (F(1,21)=2.8, p=0.11)
and poor (F<1, ns) groups did not differ significantly.
Discussion: Mice with reduced expression of the DAT exhibit poor risk-related
learning in a mouse IGT consistent with subjects with BD in the human version
of the IGT. The increased risk preference of these mice in a within-session risklearning paradigm supports their use as a model of BD. Despite changing the
background strain of these mice (C57BL/6 compared with 129/S previously),
the DAT KD mice continued to exhibit an abnormal pattern of exploration in
the mouse BPM consistent with that of patients with BD mania in the human
BPM. These data provide further support for the use of these mice in testing novel
compounds to treat BD mania.

Evidence That Mutation in Neuregulin 1, a Schizophrenia
Susceptibility Gene, Alters Glucose Tolerance in Animals
Tuesday, Poster #21

Columbia University/NYSPI
Background: Neuregulin 1 (Nrg1) alleles have been associated with schizophrenia
and Nrg1 mutant animals show psychosis related phenotypes. Nrg1 is an EGFlike growth factor implicated in muscle glucose metabolism as well as in brain
development and synaptic function. Nrg1 and its receptor ErbB4 have recently
been described as showing signals of positive selection in human populations,
although it is unclear whether this would relate to energy balance, neuronal
functions, or other growth factor related functions of Nrg1. We hypothesized that
Nrg1 mutant animals would show impaired glucose tolerance. This would have
relevance for patients with schizophrenia, as diabetes is very common, likely due
to effects of antipsychotic medications. Methods: Male animals heterozygous for Nrg1 Immunoglobulin domain isoform
null mutation (Nrg1IGhet) were fed a normal diet and tested as adults. The mutant
animals were on a c57Bl/6 background, and were tested against wild-type (WT) PL
littermate controls. Each group consisted of eight to ten animals. Blood glucose
was tested with a clinical glucometer immediately prior to and 30, 60, and 120
minutes after i.p. administration of a 1.5 g/kg glucose load. Fasting glucose was
also recorded for animals treated chronically (two months) with clozapine at 10
mg/kg in drinking water (a blood level of 59 ng/ml Norclozapine). Results: Contrary to the hypothesized result, Nrg1IGhets showed improved
glucose tolerance with an average maximum blood glucose of 165 mg/dl at 30
minutes after glucose load, while wild type littermates had a max of 220 mg/dl
at 30 minutes after glucose load (p< .05). There were no significant differences
between WT and heterozygous animals for baseline fasting glucose. There were
also no significant differences in baseline fasting glucose between animals treated
chronically with clozapine and those treated with vehicle, regardless of genotype. Discussion: This result suggests that Nrg1 genotypes may impact risk for diabetes,
for instance, reducing risk in low expression situations. It also provides alternate

frameworks for interpreting the psychosis and seizure related phenotypes found
both in Nrg1 hypomutant animals and in Nrg1 overexpression mutants. It is of
particular relevance to understanding neurological phenotypes produced by acute
peripheral administration of recombinant Nrg1, as a strong immediate effect on
blood glucose levels may mediate many downstream effects. Nrg1 effects on
blood glucose metabolism may also be of interest in determining populations at
higher risk for side effects of antipsychotic medications.

Background: Negative symptoms, which include apathy, impoverished speech,
flattened affect, and social withdrawal, cause substantial morbidity and functional
impairment among patients with schizophrenia. These problems are compounded
by the lack of effective treatments for negative symptoms. Previous work from
our group and others suggests a link between negative symptom severity and
altered folate metabolism in schizophrenia. Moreover, a common genetic variant
in MTHFR, which plays a key role in folate metabolism, may contribute to this
pattern: the hypofunctional 677T allele of MTHFR, each copy of which reduces
MTHFR activity by 35%, has been associated with increased schizophrenia
risk and specifically with increased severity of negative symptoms and related
neurocognitive dysfunction. A previous pilot investigation by our group suggested
that folate supplementation may improve negative symptoms in schizophrenia, PL
but only among patients who carried the 677T allele. Here, we conducted a large
multi-site investigation to determine whether folate plus B12 supplementation,
by itself and in concert with MTHFR 677C>T genotype, influenced symptom
severity among medicated schizophrenia patients. Methods: We enrolled outpatients with schizophrenia at three sites (Massachusetts
General Hospital, University of Rochester, and Michigan State University). Patients were taking stable regimens of antipsychotic medication upon enrollment
and were continued on their medications throughout the study. A total of 140
patients were randomized, double-blind, in a 2:1 ratioto receive 16 weeks of daily
treatment with either 2 mg folic acid plus 400 mcg B12 or placebo. Fasting serum
folate values and clinical measures including the Scale for the Assessment of
Negative Symptoms (SANS) and Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS)
were obtained at screening and at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 16 week follow-up visits. For
data analysis, linear mixed models that included treatment status (active versus

placebo), MTHFR genotype (C/C versus T allele carrier), and baseline folate
levels were used to examine changes in SANS total score, PANSS total score,
and PANSS positive symptoms over time. Alpha (2-tailed) was set at 0.05.
Results: Preliminary analyses are as follows, with additional analyses to
be presented at the meeting. The two treatment groups did not differ on any
demographic or clinical variable at baseline. Sixteen week retention was 78%. Serum folate levels rose significantly in the active treatment group. SANS total
scores improved significantly in the folate group and significantly more compared
to the placebo group, which did not show a change in negative symptoms. PANSS
total scores improved significantly in the folate group, but not significantly more
compared to placebo. No effects of treatment were seen for PANSS positive
symptoms. MTHFR genotype influenced each main outcome variable. For SANS,
genotype effects differed by treatment group, as only T allele carriers showed
significant improvement compared to placebo. For PANSS total and PANSS
positive symptoms, C/C patients improved significantly across both treatment
groups on average and significantly more than T carriers, who did not improve,
regardless of treatment. Discussion: Folate plus B12 supplementation confers a specific benefit for
negative symptoms of schizophrenia, for which no other treatment is available. Confirming our hypothesis and replicating previous results from a smaller
sample, these effects were especially pronounced in patients who carried the lowfunctioning 677T variant of MTHFR, which has previously been associated with
increased negative symptom severity and related cognitive impairment. Studies of
wider-scale implementation of folate plus B12 supplementation in schizophrenia
are warranted, as are prospective investigations of whether folate and B12 status
influence schizophrenia risk, especially among individuals who are genetically
predisposed to altered folate metabolism.

A Zebrafish Model for the Functional Analysis of Genes in Autism
Tuesday, Poster #1

Background: A critical challenge in the genetics of neuropsychiatric disorders
is distinguishing deleterious rare mutations from neutral variants, as rare
sequence and structural variants have been identified throughout the genomes
of both affected and unaffected individuals, including at candidate gene loci. The ability to distinguish rare functional from rare neutral variation is critical
for confirming the association of risk genes carrying rare alleles. For this reason,
we propose to develop an in vivo model that will allow us rapidly to differentiate
mutations that alter the function of susceptibility genes from neutral rare variants. This novel approach capitalizes on critical advantages of zebrafish, including
visualization of the developing nervous system in transparent embryos, ease of
genetic manipulation, and large progenies that facilitate the conduct of largescale pharmacologic screens. Therefore, we generated zebrafish knockouts of
the ASD risk gene, CNTNAP2, using the emerging technology of zinc finger
nucleases (ZFN). We anticipate that CNTNAP2 will be particularly informative PL
in this regard, as homozygous disruption of CNTNAP2 by a single base pair
deletion in the Old Order Amish population causes a monogenic syndrome that is
highly associated with ASD. In addition, the State laboratory identified a de novo
chromosome 7q inversion disrupting CNTNAP2 in a child with cognitive and
social delay. Our goals in developing this model are: 1) to leverage any distinctive
reproducible and quantifiable phenotype for forward genetic studies that will
help to elaborate conserved molecular mechanisms and pathways involving these
susceptibility genes; and 2) to test the relative ability of the wild type human
gene compared to constructs containing rare mutations identified in affected and
unaffected individuals to rescue the identified phenotype. Methods: We identified the zebrafish orthologs of the human CNTNAP2 gene
by conducting a search of the zebrafish genome (Zv7) in the National Center for
Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database. We analyzed the expression patterns
of these paralogs in zebrafish embryos at 30 and 48 hours post fertilization by in

situ hybridization. We utilized ZFN directed against exons 2 and 3 of CNTNAP2a
and CNTNAP2b, respectively, to generate targeted germline deletions in each
gene. Founders were generated by injecting mRNA encoding ZFN (SigmaAldrich) targeting either CNTNAP2a or 2b into embryos at the one-cell stage. Founders were identified by screening the progeny of incrosses of ZFN-injected
adult fish by PCR followed by high-resolution fragment analysis. Founders were
outcrossed to wild-type fish, and the heterozygous CNTNAP2a and 2b knockouts
were incrossed to generate viable homozygous knockouts. Results: We identified two zebrafish orthologs of CNTNAP2, CNTNAP2a and
2b. In situ analysis of these transcripts between 30 and 48 hours after fertilization
revealed expression of both paralogs in the CNS, predominantly in the midbrain
and hindbrain. These paralogs demonstrate distinct yet partially overlapping
expression patterns. Utilizing ZFN targeting each gene, we generated multiple
zebrafish founders with deleterious germline mutations in both CNTNAP2a and
2b and outcrossed these founders to wild-type fish, producing viable heterozygous
CNTNAP2a and 2b knockouts. These mutations are predicted to be damaging as
they occur early in the coding regions of each gene and produce a frameshift,
resulting in a premature stop codon and truncation of the protein in or immediately
after the N-terminal discoidin domain. In total, we have successfully generated
zebrafish founders with deleterious germline mutations in both CNTNAP2
paralogs. We are currently conducting a battery of morphological and behavioral
assays to identify quantifiable phenotypes in CNS structure and larval neural
circuits in mutant fish. Discussion: Our experiments lay the foundation for the use of zebrafish as
a model system for elucidating the function of susceptibility genes in ASD. We have identified the zebrafish orthologs of the ASD susceptibility gene,
CNTNAP2, demonstrated its expression in the zebrafish CNS, and successfully
generated the first ZFN-induced deletions in each CNTNAP2 paralog. This model
has tremendous promise for illuminating common pathways involving ASD

Background: Sensorimotor disturbances are present in the majority of individuals
with autism. It remains unclear whether these deficits reflect impaired processing
of sensory feedback for action planning, or fundamental deficits in motor control. Methods: Twenty-six individuals with autism and 26 age- and IQ-matched
healthy controls performed sustained precision grip force tasks in which the
amplitude of the required target force (motor manipulation) and the precision of
visual feedback (sensory manipulation) each were varied. They viewed a white
bar that moved upwards with increased grip force toward a fixed green target
bar. Subjects were instructed to sustain a constant force in order to stabilize the
white bar at the level of the green bar. During the motor manipulation, the green
target bar was set to 5, 25, 45, 65 or 85% of individual subjects’ maximum force
contraction. During the sensory manipulation, the vertical distance the white bar
moved per Newton of force applied was set to visual angles of .02, .06, .19, .62,
2.02, 6.66 and 21.13 deg. When the visual angle was small, the white bar moved
a smaller distance for every Newton of force applied, increasing the information
fidelity of sensory feedback. All trials were 15 sec in duration and were followed
by 15 sec of rest. Subjects completed dominant and non-dominant hand testing
separately. Results: The mean force did not differ between subjects with autism compared to
controls. However, subjects with autism showed reduced control of their motor
output as demonstrated by greater force variability during the trial. This impairment
was more robust at greater force amplitudes, especially for the non-dominant
hand. Changes in the precision of sensory feedback did not affect force control
impairments in individuals with autism; force variability was increased to similar
degrees across visual angles in individuals with autism compared to controls. Increased variability of sustained force was associated with clinical ratings of
communication impairment and motor stereotypies in individuals with autism. 134

Sensory and Motor Contributions to Visuomotor Impairments
in Individuals with Autism
Tuesday, Poster #76 (continued)

Discussion: We examined whether deficits in visuomotor control in autism result
from disruptions to sensory feedback processing and/or feedforward motor
systems. Our results provide clear evidence that visuomotor impairments are due
to deficits in producing motor output, and this deficit appears to be independent
of the quality of sensory feedback. Further, motor impairments appear to be
related to altered development of language skills and stereotypies, indicating
a relationship with core clinical features of the disorder. This pattern of motor
deficit implicates dysfunction of lobules V-VI and Crus I/II of the cerebellum
which generate efferent motor commands to multiple cortical regions, including
motor, premotor, and parietal cortices. Our finding that changes in the quality of
visual feedback do not affect the degree of motor control impairment in autism
suggests that motor cortices which scale their activity according to the precision of
visual feedback may be relatively spared. Combined with findings from multiple
postmortem studies of autism documenting reduced Purkinje cell size and density,
these results suggest that cerebellar abnormalities may underlie the dyspraxia and
poor fine motor control that are present in the majority of individuals with this
disorder.

The Role of Orexin in Adverse Menopause-Associated “Hot
Flash” and Anxiety Symptoms
Tuesday, Poster #218

Background: Menopause is a condition in which estrogen levels are severely
depleted which leads to a cluster of adverse menopausal symptoms such as
cutaneous vasomotor/sudomotor “hot flashes”, anxiety, sleep disturbances, and
appetite changes (Freeman et al., 2005; Seritan et al., 2010). Currently, estrogen
replacement therapy is the first line treatment for menopausal symptoms. However, it is no longer acceptable because of shifts in its risk (e.g., cancer)benefit ratio uncovered by the Women’s Health Initiative study (Rossouw et
al., 2002). Therefore, there is a need for non-hormonal therapies to reduce the
incidence of adverse menopausal-related symptoms. Unfortunately, the scientific
understanding of menopausal symptoms is limited and the few non-hormonal
therapies that exist are much less effective than estrogen replacement and have
adverse side effects (Nelson et al., 2006). Although the understanding of the
neural circuits involved in menopausal symptomology is not clear, it is commonly
accepted that the hypothalamus plays a critical role (Miller and Li, 2004). For
instance, menopausal symptoms are clearly induced by estrogen withdrawal and,
within the brain, estrogen receptors are highly expressed and fairly concentrated
in the hypothalamus (Laflamme et al., 1998). Furthermore, the hypothalamus
plays a critical role in setting the thermoneutral zone (Guyton, 1976), and
postmenopausal women have a reduced thermoneutral zone (i.e., lower thresholds
of ambient temp increases to elicit hot flashes) (Freedman and Krell, 1999). In
1998, a neuropeptide called orexin (ORX: also known as hypocretin) was found
to be exclusively synthesized in the perifornical hypothalamus (De Lecea et al.,
1998 and Sakurai et al., 1998) that has long been known to play a critical role in
wake-promotion, thermoregulation, and anxiety (Ferguson and Samson, 2003;
Sakurai, 2007), which are all components of menopausal symptoms. Recently
our lab determined that a hyperactive ORX system is linked to an animal model

of panic disorder and in patients with panic symptoms (Johnson et al., 2010,
Nature Medicine). Similarly, in female rats ORX expression in the hypothalamus
is highest when estrogen levels are low (Porkka-Heiskanen et al., 2004). Methods: In order to test this hypothesis, we removed the ovaries (ovariectomy:
OVEX) in female rats to model an acute menopausal state then surgically
implanted radiotelemetry probes to measure core body and tail temp. Next, we
created a novel model of menopause-induced “hot flashes” utilizing peripheral
vasodilators that reliably result in tail-flushing response in female rats, utilizing
either an acute CO2 inhalation-induced or yohimbine-induced vasodilation.
Results: We were able to demonstrate that submaximal doses of these compounds
were able to induce profound and significantly greater tail flushes in OVEX rats
compared to SHAM rats. Utilizing these and other accepted models of anxiety and
autonomic responses, we determined that pretreating OVEX rats with a systemic
injection of a centrally active ORX 1 receptor antagonist: 1) blocked OVEXinduced anxiety behavior; and 2) blocked an exacerbated “hot flash”-associated
increase in tail flushes and temperature following a clinically relevant “hot flash”
provocation stimulus.
Discussion: These results clearly demonstrate preclinical evidence that orexin
antagonists may be very effective therapies for post-menopausal hot flashes. This
is consistent with clinical data demonstrating that compared to reproductive female
controls, menopausal women had 300% higher ORX levels in their cerebrospinal
fluid and these levels were restored to control levels following estrogen
replacement (El-Sedeek et al., 2010). Therefore, loss of normal inhibitory control
by estrogens of the ORX system may lead to menopausal-related symptoms, and
ORX antagonists could constitute a potential novel treatment strategy for adverse
menopausal symptoms.

Progression of Drug Cue-Induced Phasic Dopamine Release
from Limbic to Sensorimotor Striatum Mediates Action
Selection of Drug-Taking Behavior in a Rodent Model of Drug
Addiction
Tuesday, Poster #36

Background: Dopamine neurotransmission in the ventral striatum is strongly
implicated in the acute reinforcing effects of drugs of abuse. After repeated drug
intake, the dorsolateral striatum is thought to become increasingly involved
in the control of drug taking and the automation of this behavior. Dopamine
neurotransmission in the dorsolateral striatum is potentially regulated by
ventral striatal circuitry via serial striatonigrostriatal connection. Therefore,
we simultaneously characterized phasic dopamine signaling in these two brain
regions using an animal model of drug addiction. Changes in dopamine release
were measured over the course of weeks in rats self-administering cocaine. Furthermore, we tested whether dopamine release in the dorsolateral striatum is
dependent upon ventral striatal circuitry. Finally, we blocked dopamine signaling
in the dorsolateral striatum to further investigate its role in the control of drug
taking. Methods: Multiple carbon-fiber microelectrodes for fast-scan cyclic voltammetry
or guide cannulas for microinfusion of the dopamine receptor antagonist alphaflupenthixol were chronically implanted in the striatum of rats bearing indwelling
intravenous catheters for drug self-administration. Animals had access to cocaine
for one hour per day for 20 days. During a self-administration session, a nose
poke into the active hole elicited a cocaine infusion (FR1, 0.5 mg/kg/infusion)
that was accompanied by a 20-second presentation of an audiovisual stimulus
(drug cue). Additional responses during this time-out period or nose pokes into
the inactive hole (control) were without consequences. Results: Throughout self-administration training, we observed phasic dopamine
release in the ventral striatum associated with contingent and non-contingent
presentation of the drug cue. In contrast, cue-related dopamine signals in the

dorsolateral striatum developed only during later stages of training. Unilateral
lesion of the ventral striatum with quinolinic acid inhibited the development of such
dorsolateral dopamine signals in the ipsilateral, but not contralateral, hemisphere
without affecting drug intake. Bilateral blockade of dopamine receptors in the
dorsolateral striatum with alpha-flupenthixol increased drug intake both early in
training, before dorsolateral dopamine signaling were detected, as well as later in
training, when dopamine signals were present. However, the efficiency of drug
intake (successful / total nose pokes) was affected at the late time point only. Discussion: Our results demonstrate that phasic dopamine signaling in the
striatum in response to the presentation of drug cues is dynamic and region
specific, developing in the ventral then dorsolateral striatum sequentially. This
progression of dopamine signaling from limbic to sensorimotor regions of the
striatum requires intact ventral striatal circuitry and plays a role in the action
selection of drug-taking behavior. Overall, these data implicate recruitment of
sensorimotor striatal circuitry for dopamine-mediated encoding of drug cues in
the development of long-term efficient performance of the drug-taking response
and, thus, such recruitment may contribute to automated, habitual drug intake
observed in addicts.

Background: Hippocampal hypermetabolism characterizes schizophrenia and
related psychotic disorders. Here, we hypothesized that elevations in extracellular
glutamate underlie disease-associated increases in hippocampal metabolism in
early stages of psychotic disorder and that elevations in extracellular glutamate
drive hippocampal tissue loss upon progression to first episode psychosis. To test
this hypothesis, we exploited a high-resolution variant of functional magnetic
resonance imaging (fMRI) that can map hippocampal subregional metabolism
in patients and in animal models. To translate observed functional imaging
abnormalities into underlying neurochemical mechanisms, we applied a glutamate
biosensor to measure evoked changes in extracellular glutamate in mice exposed
to acute ketamine challenge (30mg/kg), a pharmacological condition that reliably
produces positive, negative, and cognitive symptoms of acute psychosis in
humans. Methods: High-resolution functional and structural MRI in a prospective
longitudinal cohort of individuals at clinical risk for psychotic disorders imaged
at baseline (n=25) and at 2.5 years prospective follow-up for clinical outcomes
(n=20) and a combined high-resolution structural and functional MRI/glutamate
biosensor approach in C57b6 WT mice exposed to acute, as well as chronic
ketamine challenge (30mg/kg). Results: Using this cross-species imaging approach, we observed that as compared
to individuals at clinical risk for psychosis who did not progress to psychosis
over 2.5 years clinical follow-up, those individuals who did progress to psychotic
disorders exhibited hypermetabolism in the CA1 subfield (F1,19=6.2, p=.03) and
subiculum (F 1,19=5.8, p=.03), replicating an imaging profile we have previously
described in schizophrenia. Hippocampal hypermetabolism at baseline in left

progressors to first episode psychosis (r=.7, p=.003). Morphometric shape
change localizes this volume reduction to the left anterior CA1 and subiculum
subregions. In mice, with acute ketamine challenge (30 mg/kg, i.p.), we again
observed a selective increases in metabolism within the CA1 subfield (F4,13=4.1,
p=.02) and subiculum (F4,13=3.8, p=.03). Second, using an in vivo glutamate
biosensor, we found that acute ketamine challenge (30mg/kg i.p.) selectively
produced increases in extracellular glutamate in the CA1 (t11=2.4, p=.03) and
subiculum (t10=2.5, p=.03); there were no changes observed in medial entrorhinal
cortex or dentate gyrus. Pretreating mice over five-days with glutamate-reducing
agents LY379268 (10mg/kg), gabapentin (600mg/kg), or lamotrigine (10mg/kg)
showed that relative to saline pretreatment, each drug pretreatment significantly
decreased the post-ketamine extracellular glutamate response (LY379268:
t10=2.4, p=.04, lamotrigine: t10=2.9, p=.02, gabapentin: t10=3.1, p=.01); as well
as the evoked CBV response (LY379268: t8=9.1, p<.001, gabapentin: t8=3.9,
p=.004, lamotrigine: t7=1.9 p=.09). Discussion: Our study results confirm that hypermetabolism in the CA1 subfield
and the subiculum are characteristic of schizophrenia and related psychotic
disorders, and are inducible by acute ketamine challenge in rodents using the
same imaging paradigm. Moreover, the pharmacological model shows that this
hypermetabolism is mediated by increases in extracellular glutamate, and can
be blocked by diverse glutamate-limiting therapeutic strategies. Longitudinal
imaging results in patients across the transition to psychosis suggest that
hippocampal hypermetabolism drives a pattern of hippocampal volume loss
that is maximal in the left anterior body of the structure. These findings have
immediate implications for a glutamate-limiting preventive therapeutic strategy
in patients at clinical high risk for psychotic disorders who exhibit hippocampal
hypermetabolism.

Orexin mediates Yohimbine Actions in BNST and
Impaired Extinction of Cocaine Place Preference through a
Norepinephrine-independent Process
Kelly L. Conrad
Vanderbilt University Medical Center
Background: The alpha2 adrenergic receptor (a2-AR) antagonist yohimbine
is a widely used tool for the study of anxiogenesis and stress-induced drugseeking behavior. We previously demonstrated that yohimbine produces both a
paradoxical depression of excitatory transmission in the bed nucleus of the stria
terminalis (BNST) along with an impairment of extinction of cocaine conditioned
place preference (cocaine CPP) that are independent of (a2-AR) signaling. The
target of yohimbine that mediates these actions, however, is unknown.
Methods: We utilized whole-cell patch clamp and field potential recordings in
the BNSTex vivo to examine the effects of yohimbine (30-50 uM), orexin A
(100 nM), orexin 1 receptor (Ox1R) antagonist (SB-334867; 2-5 uM), orexin 2
receptor (Ox2R) antagonist (JNJ-10397049), and a novel dual OxR antagonist
MTBDQ (1uM), and the norephinephrine transport blocker reboxetine (100
nM) on excitatory transmission in wild-type and prepro-orexin knockout mice
PL
(Ox-KO). The ability of yohimbine to directly activate Ox1R was investigated
utilizing an Ox1R expressing stable cell line. To examine the potential behavioral
implications of these findings, the ability of OxR antagonists to alter yohimbine
impairment of cocaine CPP extinction was investigated
Results: Yohimbine-induced depression of excitatory transmission in the BNST
is blocked by two distinct OxR antagonists, absent in Ox-KO mice, and mimicked
by exogenous orexin A application but not blockade of norepinephrine uptake. Moreover, we show that the action of yohimbine is not through direct activation
of Ox1R, suggesting yohimbine facilitates orexin release. Behaviorally, we find
that yohimbine-induced impairment of cocaine CPP extinction is also blocked by
an Ox1R antagonist.
Discussion: These data describe a major new mechanism for orexin action
on excitatory anxiety circuits, and show that significant behavioral actions of
yohimbine may be directly dependent upon orexin signaling and independent of
norepinephrine.

Csnk1e is a Genetic Regulator of Sensitivity to Psychostimulants
and Opioids
Camron D. Bryant
University of Chicago
PL
Background: Csnk1e, the gene encoding casein kinase 1-epsilon, has been
implicated in sensitivity to amphetamines. We previously identified a quantitative
trait locus (QTL) in mice for methamphetamine (MA)-induced locomotor activity
near Csnk1e. Additionally, CSNK1E genetic variants have been associated with
amphetamine euphoria and heroin addiction in humans. The casein kinase 1
(CK-1) family phosphorylates dopamine- and cyclic adenosine monophosphateregulated neuronal phosphoprotein-32 (DARPP-32) and co-administration of the
casein kinase 1-delta (Csnk1d)-preferring inhibitor PF-670462 with amphetamines
inhibits DARPP-32 phosphorylation and the locomotor stimulant response. This
suggests that CK-1 acts via the DARPP-32 pathway to influence psychostimulant
sensitivity. The objective of this study was two-fold. First, we wished to narrow
the QTL near Csnk1e that influences MA sensitivity and test for its relevance in
opioid sensitivity. Second, we wished to directly test the hypothesis that Csnk1e
regulates sensitivity to psychostimulants and opioids using knockout mice and
selective pharmacological inhibition.
Methods: We conducted a genome-wide QTL mapping study of MA-induced locomotor activity (2 mg/kg, i.p.) in C57BL/6J (B6) x DBA/2J (D2)-F2 mice
and a highly recombinant F8 advanced intercross line. We also generated
and phenotyped B6.D2Csnk1e and D2.B6Csnk1e reciprocal congenic lines
capturing Csnk1e (78-86.8 Mb and 78.7-81.6 Mb, respectively; Csnk1e = 79.25). B6.D2Csnk1e mice were also tested for sensitivity to the mu opioid receptor
agonist fentanyl (0.2 mg/kg, i.p.). Additionally, mice harboring a null allele of
Csnk1e were tested for MA-induced locomotor activity. Last, we tested the effect
of the Csnk1e-selective inhibitor PF-4800567 (40 mg/kg, i.p.) on the locomotor
stimulant response to methamphetamine, fentanyl, or saline.
Results: We identified a QTL on chromosome 15 for MA sensitivity that contained
Csnk1e (63-86 Mb; Csnk1e = 79.25 Mb) and further narrowed the locus to 3 Mb
using reciprocal congenic mice (78.7-81.6 Mb). This locus also affected fentanyl
sensitivity. Csnk1e knockout mice showed an increase in basal and MA-stimulated

locomotor activity. The selective Csnk1e inhibitor PF-4800567 also produced
an increase in MA- and fentanyl-induced locomotor activity but did not have
any effect by itself. Interestingly, the enhancement of MA sensitivity with PF4800567 depended on the genotype of congenic mice, providing further support
that genetic variation in Csnk1e regulates the response to MA.
Discussion: These results show that a narrow genetic locus that contains Csnk1e
is associated with differences in sensitivity to MA and fentanyl. Interestingly, the
precise locus has also been identified for variation in ethanol consumption in mice. The convergence of a QTL on this locus for the response to psychostimulants,
opioids, and ethanol implicates gene(s) acting via dopaminergic mechanisms. Gene knockout and selective pharmacological inhibition of Csnk1e define its
role as a negative regulator of sensitivity to psychostimulants and opioids. This
suggests that our previous findings regarding the Csnk1d-preferring inhibitor PF670462 were mediated by Csnk1d and that the two isoforms exhibit opposing
control over the response to drugs of abuse. In support of this hypothesis and PL
similar to the results with Csnk1e knockout mice, overexpression of Csnk1d in the
forebrain has been shown to increase basal and amphetamine-induced locomotor
activity. Future studies will examine the role of DARPP-32 and cell type-specific
expression of Csnk1e and Csnk1d in regulating sensitivity to drugs of abuse as
well as their role in motivational behaviors such as pain and reward. 145

The Glial Modulator Propentofylline impairs Reinstatement in a
Rat Model of Cocaine Abuse
Kathryn J. Reissner
Medical University of South Carolina
PL
Background: Accumulating evidence indicates that activation of glial cells is
a cellular feature associated with drug abuse. Noncontingent administration of
cocaine leads to upregulation of markers for glial activation, including GFAP and
vimentin, 3 weeks after one week of daily cocaine administration. Moreover,
glial high affinity glutamate transporters GLT-1/EAAT2 and GLAST/EAAT1
are also chronically downregulated following cocaine self-administration and
extinction training. Because these observations occur several weeks following
withdrawal, the findings collectively suggest that glial reactivity may represent a
long-lasting cellular adaptation following cessation of cocaine use, and may thus
contribute to mechanisms of relapse. As an initial step to test this hypothesis,
we have employed the glial modulator propentofylline in a rat reinstatement
model of cocaine abuse. Propentofylline is a xanthine derivative with numerous
cellular functions, including adenosine uptake inhibition and phosphodiesterase
inhibition. Propentofylline has also been shown to reverse markers for reactive
gliosis following nerve injury, including changes in expression of GFAP, GLAST,
and GLT-1.
Methods: Following intrajugular catheterization and recovery from surgery, male
Sprague-Dawley rats were trained to self-administer cocaine on an FR1 schedule
during 2h sessions each day. A lever press resulted in a cocaine infusion (0.2 mg
per infusion), as well as presentation of light and tone drug-paired cues. Criteria
for self-administration was a minimum of 10 sessions receiving 10 infusions or
more. Following self-administration, rats entered an extinction training phase
for 2 weeks, during which a lever press no longer resulted in drug or drugpaired cues. During the last 6 days of extinction, rats received an injection of
propentofylline (10 mg/kg, i.p.) or saline 30 min prior to the extinction session. One final injection was also given 30 min prior to a cue-prime reinstatement test. In a separate series of experiments, one injection of propentofylline (10 mg/kg or
25 mg/kg, i.p.) or saline was given 30 min prior to a reinstatement test only.
Results: Animals that received chronic propentofylline treatment during the last
6 days of extinction and prior to a reinstatement test reinstated significantly less

than animals receiving saline only, as measured by number of active lever
presses (experiment 1). However, acute propentofylline given once prior to
a reinstatement test was without effect at 10 mg/kg or 25 mg/kg (experiment
2). Animals receiving chronic propentofylline or saline (experiment 1) were
allowed to re-enter extinction training following reinstatement without continued
treatment, for a second test one week later. Number of active lever presses
was not significantly different between animals receiving propentofylline or
saline in the second reinstatement test, indicating that continued treatment with
propentofylline is necessary for an enduring effect on reinstatement.
Discussion: Results presented here indicate that chronic administration of the
glial modulator propentofylline can impair drug seeking behavior. These findings
indicate that reactive gliosis may represent a credible target for pharmacotherapy
for cocaine abuse. Ongoing studies are designed to measure changes in protein
expression for glial markers known to be affected by cocaine abuse which are
also identified targets for propentofylline, including GFAP, GLT-1, and GLAST. 147

Differential Role of ΔFosB in the Prefrontal Cortex in CCK
Sensitivity and Vulnerability to Stress
Vincent Vialou
Mount Sinai School of Medicine
Background: Chronic social defeat stress in mice induces long-lasting
abnormalities, including social avoidance, which can be normalized by chronic,
not acute, antidepressant treatment (Berton et al., 2006). However, a significant
proportion of defeated mice avoid these abnormalities (Krishnan et al., 2007),
allowing a look at mechanisms of resilience in addition to vulnerability. Recently, we observed decreased expression of markers of neuronal activity
in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) of susceptible mice (Covington et al.,
2010), and found that optogenetic stimulation of the mPFC of susceptible mice
reversed their depression-like symptoms (Covington et al., 2010). A potential
molecular mechanism underlying the susceptible phenotype could be the release
of cholecystokinin (CCK) in the mPFC, which has been shown to be released
during social stress and to mediate an anxiogenic response.
Methods: We first quantified ΔFosB levels by immunohistochemistry, a marker
implicated in the persistent neuronal alterations induced by chronic exposure to
stress. In order to evaluate its role in sensitivity to stress, we used viral-mediated PL
gene transfer into different regions of the PFC. We used quantitative PCR to
evaluate CCK-B receptor, a known target gene of ΔFosB, after chronic social
defeat and after ΔFosB manipulation. Finally, we tested the antidepressant effect
of an infusion of CI-988 (1ng), a CCK-B antagonist, into the mPFC of susceptible
mice.
Results: We show here that social defeat induces long-term molecular adaptations
differentially in susceptible vs. resilient mice in the mPFC as well as in the
orbitofrontal cortex (OFC). Resilient mice show a greater induction of ΔFosB
in the OFC, while susceptible mice show greater induction in the mPFC. These
results suggest that ΔFosB induction after chronic stress in these two brain regions
regulates specific neural pathways that contribute to the susceptible and resilient
phenotype, respectively. Preliminary evidence indicates that ΔFosB overexpression
in the OFC reduces immobility in the forced swim test, an antidepressantlike effect. We are currently testing whether ΔFosB overexpression in the

OFC of susceptible mice promotes resilience. Conversely, ΔFosB overexpression
in the mPFC increased social avoidance induced by social stress, a pro-depressant
effect. To verify that CCK-B is implicated in the behavioral deficits induced
by social stress, we infused CI-988 in the mPFC of susceptible mice. This was
sufficient to reverse the social avoidance induced by social defeat. We are currently
testing the binding of ΔFosB at the CCK-B promoter gene after social defeat.
Discussion: Long-term alterations in the mPFC mediate the behavioral
abnormalities observed after social defeat. We identified ΔFosB as mediator
of the depressive-like phenotype induced by chronic stress. Blockade of CCK
actions in the mPFC promotes social interaction, an antidepressant-like effect. Conversely, increased ΔFosB levels in the OFC after social defeat promotes
resilience, revealing a differential role for ΔFosB in OFC and mPFC. Together,
these experiments complement our earlier demonstration that ΔFosB acting in
the nucleus accumbens reward circuitry mediates resilience and antidepressant
responses (Vialou et al., 2010), and will provide a better understanding of the role
of ΔFosB in the pathophysiology of depression and its treatment.

Modulation of Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis through HPA
Axis Activity determines the Divergent Effects of Distress and
Eustress on Affective Disorders
Michael L. Lehmann
National Institutes of Health
Background: In animals, complex environments and physical exercise have
been shown to reduce depressive behavior, increase hippocampal neurogenesis,
and improve cognitive function. Previously, we showed that environmental
enrichment facilitated the recovery from social defeat stress and enhanced stress
resiliency. In a social conflict paradigm, repeated social defeat stress consistently
yields a submissive phenotype and is an ethological means of inducing depression
in mice. Social defeat stress (SD) and enriched environments (EE) are both strong
modulators of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis function. However, they
have divergent effects on the HPA axis. SD stress is a negative stressor (distress)
and has been shown to induce HPA axis dysfunction, whereas physical exercise
and enriched housing—both of which are positive stressors (eustress)—render
the HPA axis more adaptive. We hypothesized that the persistent arousal of HPA
activity by SD contributes to the pathogenesis of depression. We also hypothesized
that HPA activity during EE is requisite for the restoration of normal phenotype
in depressed mice. Because the hippocampus provides inhibitory control on
HPA axis output, and because hippocampal neurogenesis has been implicated
in the pathology of depression, we also hypothesized that divergent outcomes
of eustress and distress exposure are hippocampal neurogenesis-dependant. We
designed three experiments to test these hypotheses.
Methods: We first examined if adrenalectomy (ADX) coupled with basal
corticosterone (CORT) replacement would alter how animals respond to SD. We
exposed ADX and sham-operated male C57BL6/J mice to 14 days of chronic SD
and measured the expression of maladaptive behaviors. We also examined the
survival of newborn hippocampal neurons during SD. Next, we examined the
involvement of adrenal glucocorticoids in the restorative effects of environmental
enrichment (EE) in defeated mice. We hypothesized that HPA activity during
EE are required for behavioral recovery after defeat stress. Male mice were
exposed to SD for 2 weeks then either ADX (and basal CORT-replaced) or sham

operated. Mice were then housed in EE for 3 weeks and subsequently examined
for affective behavioral disorders. Lastly, we tested if decreased neurogenesis
contributes to the etiology of SDinduced depression or if it is downstream from
changes in behavior. We hypothesized that SD results in depressive-like behavior
through a glucocorticoid-induced decline in surviving hippocampal neurons
and the protective effects of ADX in distress would not persist in mice with
conditionally suppressed neurogenesis (NG-). Suppression is achieved through
the administration of ganciclovir to the diet of GFAP-HSVtk transgenic mice. NGmice and their wildtype (WT) littermate controls were ADX and exposed to
defeat stress as described in the first experiment.
Results: Mice ADX prior to social defeat showed decreased anxiety- and
depressive-like behaviors and increased survival of adult born hippocampal
neurons compared to sham-operated mice. During behavioral recovery after SD,
sham-operated mice housed in EE showed decreased expression of anxiety- and
depressive-like behaviors and increased survival of adult born neurons. However,
if we ADX defeated mice prior to EE, the beneficial effects of EE disappeared,
and hippocampal neurogenesis was decreased. Lastly, while ADX conferred
stress resiliency to the WT mice, ADX NG- mice lacked resiliency and developed
depressive behavior.
Discussion: The current experiments show a strong correlation between survival
of adult-born hippocampal neurons, adrenal corticosteroids, and expressions
of affective disorders. For instance, HPA axis stimulation during EE promotes
behavioral recovery in defeated mice and ADX prevents behavioral depression
from social defeat. Both manipulations promote the survival of adultborn
hippocampal neurons; HPA-activity during EE increases survival and ADX before
SD protects against decreased survival. Decreased hippocampal neurogenesis
and dysregulation of the HPA axis are implicated in the etiology of depression. The finding of the present study—demonstrating that ADX protects WT mice
from the detrimental effects of SD but did not protect mice with conditionally

suppressed neurogenesis (NG-)— suggests that SD causes depressive behavior
through CORT-induced decreases in hippocampal neurogenesis. Because ADX
did not afford protection from defeat in NG- mice, this suggests that decreased
hippocampal neurogenesis—even in the absence of high-levels of CORT—is
sufficient to eliminate stress-resilience in mice.

Optical Activation of Nucleus Accumbens Neurons modulates
Depression- and Anxiety-Like Behaviors
Mary Kay Lobo
University of Maryland School of Medicine
PL
Background: The nucleus accumbens (NAc) plays a crucial role in regulating
mood, including maladaptive behaviors seen in depression and anxiety disorders. Recently, deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the nucleus accumbens was shown to
alleviate depression and anxiety symptoms in patients suffering from treatment
resistant depression. Methods: We employ optogenetic technologies to apply repetitive (5 days)
high frequency (130Hz) and low frequency (10Hz) stimulation to NAc neurons,
using adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) expressing Channelrhopsin-2 (ChR2), in
animals exhibiting social avoidance (a depression-like behavior) after chronic
social defeat stress. Additionally, we optogenetically activate specific NAc
neuronal subtypes with a low frequency stimulation (10Hz) during acute moodrelated behaviors including tail suspension test (TST–a form of stress) and
elevated plus maze (EPM–a measure of anxiety).
Results: Repetitive high frequency, but not low frequency, ChR2 activation of
NAc neurons reversed the social avoidance seen after chronic social defeat stress. Furthermore, low frequency stimulation of dopamine receptor 1 (D1)-containing
NAc projection neurons during acute mood-related behaviors decreased time
spent immobile during the TST and increased time in the open arms in the EPM.
Discussion: These results provide insight into the mechanism of DBS stimulation
in the NAc, since directly activating NAc neurons repetitively with high frequency
stimulation can alleviate depression symptoms displayed after chronic social
defeat stress. Additionally, we show that activation of D1-containing NAc neurons
is important for mediating acute mood-related behaviors, since activation of these
neurons has antidepressant- and anxiolytic-like effects.

Essential Role of Ventral Tegmental Area Dopamine Neurons in
Mediating the Induction and Rapid Reversal of Depression-Like
Behaviors
Ming-Hu Han
Mount Sinai School of Medicine
PL
Background: The surprising rapid clinical effect of deep brain stimulation in
depressed patients supports the notion that depression is a neural circuit disorder. In contrast, less is known if depression-like behaviors can be induced or reversed
rapidly in animal models. Our previous ex vivo and in vivo studies showed that
chronic social defeat consistently increased the firing rate and phasic firing events
of ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopamine (DA) neurons in the brain reward
circuitry of susceptible mice, but not of the resilient subgroup (Cell 2007; J
Neurosci 2010). However, the physiological function of this increased firing
and its ionic mechanisms, as well as potential therapeutic targets, remain to be
elucidated.
Methods: Susceptible and resilient mice were segregated following a chronic
(10-day) social defeat paradigm, a well-established model of depression. Utilizing
optogenetic techniques – Cre-dependent expression of channelrhodopsin-2
(ChR2) in tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-Cre mice, phasic firing was induced by
high frequency optoactivation of ChR2 specifically in VTA DA neurons, and
behavioral tests (social interaction and sucrose preference) were performed in
behaving mice. The ionic mechanisms that underlie the hyperactivity of these
neurons were also examined in TH-GFP mice by use of electrophysiological
techniques.
Results: Consistent with our earlier findings, we found that optoactivation of
ChR2 (mimicking phasic firing) during sub-threshold defeat, a paradigm that does
not induce depressive-like behaviors in normal mice, increased social avoidance
behavior and reduced sucrose intake. Importantly, the same optoactivation of
these neurons during social interaction tests instantly induced similar susceptible
behaviors in both resilient mice and the mice treated with sub-threshold defeat. These findings indicate that the phasic firing of VTA DA neurons encodes, and is
tightly linked to, the susceptible phenotype. Next, toward understanding the ionic
mechanisms of the higher VTA DA neuron firing, we previously found that the

current of Ih (hyperpoplarization-activated cation channel), an important channel
in the transition between tonic andphasic firing patterns, was upregulated in
susceptible mice and that local infusion of Ih inhibitors ZD 7288 and DK-AH 269
into the VTA normalized depression-like social avoidance in susceptible mice
within one hour after the infusion. This rapid effect is very different from classic
antidepressants that take weeks to show treatment efficacy. Surprisingly, in our
ongoing studies, we also observed that the antidepressant effect induced by a
single-dose infusion of Ih inhibitor DK-AH 269 lasted at least two weeks. More
importantly, this long-lasting effect was also seen with a single intraperitoneal dose
of DK-AH 269. Following these studies, we also found that chronic defeat induced
a larger increase in Ih current in resilient mice than in the susceptible subgroup. This finding suggests that the force driving the pathological hyperactivity persists
in resilient mice, and that additional compensatory ionic mechanisms such as K+
channels are necessary to drive the higher firing back to normal levels in resilient
PL
mice. Consistently, our data showed that K+ currents were significantly increased
selectively in resilient mice, which is consistent with our earlier microarray data. In addition, we found that local infusion of the K+ (KCNQ) channel activator
flupirtine into the VTA had similar rapid antidepressant effects as seen with Ih
inhibitors. We are now investigating the effect of systemic administration of this
activator and others.
Discussion: Here we demonstrate that optogenetics is a powerful tool to
precisely imitate stress-induced physiological adaptations and reliably define
VTA DA neurons in the brain reward circuit as a therapeutic target. Interestingly,
optogenetically-induced phasic firing rapidly induces avoidance behavior during
interaction tests, even in resilient mice. Our data also strongly support that
Ih channels are one of the passive pathological ion mechanisms that underlie
the susceptible firing increase, while K+ channels are an important active ion
mechanism that drives the pathological hyperactivity back to normal levels in
resilient mice. Importantly, passive ion channel inhibitors and active ion channel

Evidence from Mouse and Man for a Role of Neuregulin 3 in
Nicotine Dependence
Jill R. Turner
University of Pennsylvania
Background: Smoking is the largest preventable cause of death and disease
in the United States, with about 46 million U.S. adults currently smoking [1]. Though there are effective medications approved by the FDA to treat nicotine
addiction, roughly 80% of smokers treated with these approaches relapse within
one year [2]. Interestingly, failed smoking cessation has been shown to have
genetic contributions [3-5]. One protein associated with mechanisms of both
gene regulation and nicotine response is the transcription factor CREB. To further
investigate mechanisms underlying nicotine dependence, the current study sought
to identify downstream targets of CREB and their regulation following treatment
with nicotine as well as during 24h withdrawal. Methods: Using functional genomic approaches (chromatin immunoprecipitation
(ChIP) and whole genome sequencing), CREB targets were identified following
chronic nicotine administration and withdrawal. GLITR (GLobal Identifier of
Target Regions) analysis was performed to assess potential target regions. Two
independent biological replicates were used to validate genomic targets using PL
ChIP, quantitative PCR and Western blotting. Validated genomic targets were then
assessed for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the clinical population.
Results: Chronic nicotine and withdrawal differentially modulates CREB binding
to the gene for Neuregulin 3 (NRG3). Quantitative PCR and Western blot analysis
of saline, nicotine, and nicotine withdrawal groups in two biological replicates
corroborate this finding, with NRG3 increases in both mRNA and protein following
nicotine treatment and withdrawal (p=0.008). Single nucleotide polymorphisms
(SNPs) across NRG3 were examined for association with prospective smoking
cessation among 595 smokers of European ancestry treated with transdermal
nicotine in two independent cohorts. Individual SNP and haplotype analysis
support association of NRG3 SNPs and smoking cessation success; however, the
function of these specific SNP markers in NRG3 is unknown. Discussion: These data suggest a role for NRG3 in nicotine dependence and
withdrawal. NRG3 is a neural-enriched member of the EGF family, and a specific

Changes in Figural Memory Performance and fMRI Activity
across the Adult Age Span
Sharna Jamadar
Olin Neuropsychiatry Research Center, Institute of Living
Background: Older adults perform worse than younger adults on tests of
recognition memory. This decreased performance is often accompanied by
changes in fMRI activity, both in task-related regions that are activated by young
participants, and in additional regions not activated in young participants. This
over-recruitment of neural activity has been attributed to either compensatory
processes or dedifferentiation of function. The vast majority of studies of
cognitive aging compare young (~20-30yrs) and old (~60-70yrs) participant
groups, however this artificial categorizing of age groups ignores the continuous
nature of age as a variable, and also can inflate estimates of age relations because
the variance associated with middle-age is ignored. In this study, we examined
changes in figural memory performance and fMRI activity in a large sample of
adults aged 17-81yrs. The figural memory task is a visual recognition task that
uses stimuli that are resistant to verbal encoding and has been developed for the
study of cognitive aging, however to date no fMRI study has been conducted with
the task, nor has changes in performance/neural activity been examined across PL
the adult age range. Methods: Two hundred and thirty five individuals aged 17-81yrs (mean 35yrs,
127 female) participated in the study. Ages 18-20 were oversampled, with ages
21-81 sampled with a frequency of around 25 per 10yr age bin. Task stimuli
were black line drawings that were resistant to verbal encoding presented in two
phases. In the Encoding phase, participants silently examined 20 Target stimuli. In the recognition phase, 20 Target and 20 Distractor stimuli were presented, and
participants pressed a button with either their index or middle finger to indicate if
they had seen it previously or not, respectively. Results: Reaction time (RT) increased linearly for Hit Targets (i.e. true positive
responses) with age; RT for Miss Target (false negative) and Hit Distractors (false
positive), Distractor error rate, and response bias showed a quadratic relationship
with age, such that RT increased until around 30yrs, plateaued, then decreased
around 60-yrs of age. So, the youngest and oldest participants were faster, made

fewer errors and showed a more conservative response bias than participants in the
median age ranges. During Encoding, participants activated a distributed bilateral
network encompassing frontal, parietal, lateral and medial temporal and occipital
cortices. fMRI activity during Encoding did not correlate with age. To determine
if Encoding differed between remembered vs. forgotten trials, we compared
Encoded-Remembered to Encoded-Forgotten trials. Encoded-Remembered trials
showed increased activity in bilateral occipital cortex and reduced activity in
precuneus, right inferior parietal and temporal cortex. This activity also did not
correlate with age. For Hit Targets, a distributed network encompassing premotor
(PM), subcortical, lateral and medial temporal (LatTEMP, MedTEMP), parietal
and occipital regions was activated. Activity in PM, cingulate and parahippocampal
gyrus (PHG) were linearly positively correlated with age; additional non-task
related activity in prefrontal (PFC), PM, parietal, LatTEMP, MedTEMP and
occipital regions was quadratically correlated with age. A similar network was
activated for Hit Distractors; activity in PFC, PM, putamen, PHG, parietal and
LatTEMP cortex were positively linearly correlated with age, additional nontask activity in PFC, PM, LatTEMP, MedTEMP and occipital regions were
quadratically related to age. Miss Targets activated a similar network to Hit
Targets. fMRI activity during Miss Targets did not correlate with age. Discussion: Behaviorally, younger and older participants were more likely to
be faster, make fewer errors and respond ‘no’ when uncertain. The changes in
performance in our youngest age range are likely to reflect continued maturation
of the brain that continues into the late 20s. Older adults showed greater activation
of task-related regions for Hit Targets and Distractors, and also showed differential
recruitment of additional non-task related brain regions. Together with the finding
that older participants performed better than middle aged participants on the task,
this pattern of fMRI activity suggests that older adults successfully compensated
for age-related changes in function of the brain.

Background: Disruptions to the molecular mechanisms controlling glutamatergic
synapse structure and function are believed to underlie certain neurodevelopmental
disorders, such as Intellectual Disability (ID), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
and schizophrenia. Deleterious mutations in several synaptic proteins have
been liked to these disorders, though the impact of such mutations on neural
development and cognitive maturation is unclear. Recently, haploinsufficiency
of the gene that encodes the essential synaptic RasGAP, SynGAP, was shown
to cause ID in 3-4% of sampled patients. CNVs of this gene are linked to ASDs
and SynGAP expression levels are altered in elderly patients with schizophrenia. Because SynGAP is exclusively localized to forebrain dendritic spines, where it
directly regulates G-protein signaling controlling glutamatergic synapse structure
and function, the neurodevelopmental outcome of SynGAP1 mutations may
provide valuable insight into the patho-neurobiology underlying these disorders. Methods: The mice used for in this study were a mixed genetic background of
129sv/ev (Taconic) and c57/B6J (Jackson Labs). Electrophysiological studies
were carried out in mice at three different age groups: PND8-9, PND14-16,
PND>60. Two-photon imaging of dendritic spines in acute slices was performed
by exciting eGFP in SynGAP Het mice crossed to THY1-GFPm mice. Laser
photo-stimulation was performed by uncaging glutamate in the dentate gyrus and
then measuring spread of activity using a voltage sensitive dye. Dentate gyrus
function was assessed by mouse performance in a memory test designed to test
pattern separation.
Results: We show that excitatory synapses in the hippocampus of SynGAP1
haploinsufficient mice develop at an accelerated rate starting in the second
postnatal week. The changes in synaptic function were specific to glutamatergic
synapses and were caused by elevated AMPAR function. There were no observed
alterations to intrinsic neuronal properties or inhibitory currents onto glutamatergic
neurons. At this same point in development, SynGAP mutants exhibited enhanced
excitability of the hippocampal tri-synaptic circuit. Laser photo-stimulation of

the dentate gyrus resulted in a more than 8-fold increase in signals reaching CA1
from Hets compared to WT mice. In addition, SynGAP P16 SynGAP Hets also
exhibited an enhanced seizure threshold and audiogenic seizures, while also
exhibiting behavioral abnormalities related to hippocampal dysfunction. These
developmental disruptions had persistent consequences because adult mutants
performed poorly on a test for pattern separation, a memory test designed to
assess hippocampal function during memory encoding and retrieval.
Discussion: We conclude that SynGAP expression restricts the functional
maturation of glutamatergic synapses by tempering AMPAR accumulation at
postsynaptic sites. This negative tuning of glutamatergic synapses by SynGAP
appears essential for maintaining the balance of neural excitability in developing
hippocampal networks, which has implications for the organization of connected
brain regions and the emergence of cognitive ability. SynGAP tempers synaptic
function by down-regulating signals in dendritic spines that promote plasticity. Thus, these studies provide a neurobiological link connecting a disease-causing
genetic mutation to the abnormal development of neural circuits that underlie PL
human intellectual ability.

Neuropsychological Tests as Predictors of Fear Conditioning and
Extinction
Karen G. Martinez
University of Puerto Rico
PL
Background: Anxiety disorders are characterized by specific emotions, thoughts
and physiological responses. The psychological symptoms of anxiety disorders
are usually measured with self-report scales such as Beck Anxiety Inventory
(BAI) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), which asses fear (thoughts
of threat, perception of physiological arousal) and anxiety (worry, avoidance,
muscle tension)[1]. Cognitive function, assessed with neuropsychological
tests like the Emotional Stroop, shows increased attention to threat in anxiety
patients[1]. Anxiety patients also show a characteristic psychological profile
consisting of high neuroticism and low extraversion[2]. Physiological responses
can be assessed at baseline, or in response to a sensory stimulus that has been
paired with a mild shock, a process known as fear conditioning. Little is known
about the relationship between psychological/cognitive symptoms of anxiety and
physiological responses. We studied this relationship in healthy subjects. Methods: Forty-seven healthy adults living in San Juan, Puerto Rico (31 female
and 16 male aged 21-54) were administered a series of tests that included the
NEO-PI personality inventory, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Beck
Anxiety Inventory (BAI), the Multi-Source Interference Task (MSIT, a counting
interference task), the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) and an Emotional
Stroop Task (EST) which required subjects to identify the color of words that had
either neutral or emotional significance. All tests were administered in Spanish
and validated for Puerto Rico. Subjects were then trained in an established fear
conditioning and extinction paradigm (Milad et al., 2005), which assessed the
SCR to pictures of a colored light associated with shock (CS+, CS-), and to the
room in which the light CS was presented (context). On day 1, subjects received
habituation, conditioning and extinction trials. On day 2, subjects were tested for
memory of extinction (recall), and contextual renewal. The extent to which tests
predicted the physiological responses was assessed with individual regressions,
and then with predictive models using a combination of tests (multiple linear
regressions). Adjusted R2 were used to assess the predictive power of the models
outside of our own sample.

Neuropsychological Tests as Predictors of Fear Conditioning and
Extinction (continued)
Karen G. Martinez
Results: While individual tests showed poor prediction of fear learning and
extinction, a combination of tests yielded significant predictive models. We
were able to predict the response to the CS+ during conditioning and renewal
using combinations of the STAI, BAI, NEO-PI, MSIT, and sex (Cond:R2=0.304,
p<0.01; Renewal: R2=0.263, p<0.001). Thus, simple psychological tests were
sufficient to predict as much as 30% of the variance of the fear responses in our
sample. We were also able to explain the variance of baseline skin conductance
using extraversion scores.
Discussion: We assessed the relationship of several tests related to the anxiety
phenotypes with physiological indices, both at baseline and during various
phases of experimental fear conditioning. While we were unable to predict
extinction learning or extinction recall, we were able to predict 26-30% of SCR
variance in conditioning memory and renewal, both indicators of the strength
of conditioning. We also were able to explain 16% of the variance in baseline
SCL with extraversion alone. We developed a simple battery of psychological
tests capable of predicting approximately 30% of variance in experimental fear
conditioning and renewal. Predicting conditioned fear responses could help
identify people at risk for anxiety disorders and/or serve as a marker for relapse.

The Role for NDEL1 in nNOS Signaling: Implications for
Cortical Development and Prefrontal Cortex-mediated
Cognitive Behaviors
Atsushi Kamiya
Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine
PL
Background: Higher brain function and behavior are influenced by neuronal
circuit formation during brain development. Many genetic risk factors for
schizophrenia, such as Disrupted-in-Schizophrenia-1 (DISC1) and neuronal nitric
oxide synthase (nNOS), have key roles in neurodevelopment. Consequently,
disturbances in brain development are suggested to underlie the pathology of
such devastating conditions. Although roles for these factors have been reported
at the molecular level, there are limited studies on whether they act in common
molecular pathways that contribute to disease pathology. In this study, we
explored the role of NudE-like 1 (NDEL1), a schizophrenia-associated protein
interactor of DISC1, in nNOS signaling for the development of the prefrontal
cortex and resultant behaviors. Given that nNOS and NDEL1 are highly expressed
in the cortical plate of developing cerebral cortex, NDEL1 may function as a
downstream effecter of nNOS signaling for cortical development, which may
also contribute to the NO-mediated establishment of neuronal circuits responsible
for long-lasting behaviors. Method: We examine the role of S-nitrosylation of NDEL1 via nNOS signaling
for cortical development and their underlying molecular mechanisms by using
cortical neuron cultures with RNAi approach and brains from nNOS KO mice. To manipulate NDEL1 function in the developing cerebral cortex, we use a Cre/
loxP-mediated inducible expression system with in utero electroporation. Result: We found that NDEL1 is S-nitrosylated in nNOS signaling. S-nitrosylation
of NDEL1 is required for dendritic development. We also found the interaction
of NDEL1 with nNOS, which is mediated by DISC1. Furthermore, our data from
the behavioral characterization of nNOS KO mice suggest that prefrontal cortexmediated cognitive functions are impaired in nNOS KO mice. Discussion: We are currently exploring the impact of nNOS/NDEL1 signaling in
vivo by in utero electroporation with an inducible gene expression system. With
this technique, we can dissect the temporal requirement for the studies of NDEL1

Animal Research in Neuropsychopharmacology: What are the
Critical Ethical Issues?
David Jentsch
University of California, Los Angeles
Because of the way in which life on our planet originated, we share a tremendous
amount in common (genetically, physiologically, biochemically, etc.) with nonhuman animals, particularly other mammals. Consequently, we believe that - by
studying non human animals, we believe that we can better understand our own
brains and minds – how they operate both in health and in disease. On the other
hand, there appear to differences between humans and even our closest relatives
in the animal world, with ample evidence of very substantial gaps in morallyrelevant cognitive abilities, like theory of mind. A conflict has arisen between
those in support of and against animal use in biomedical research, and the
disagreement focuses on these two issues. Many scientists believe that biological
similarity makes animals useful models for investigating the building blocks
of our bodies, while the differences in cognition and socio-emotional function
justify their involuntary participation. Perhaps ironically, opponents of that
work often make precisely the opposite arguments, namely that animals are too
biologically different from us to be useful models and that their complex humanlike minds make their involvement in research heinous. In the resulting conflict –
which has escalated from name calling to criminally violent direct action against
researchers, key ethical issues are lost. In this presentation, I will address the
question of differences in moral agency in humans and animals and suggest that
embracing the concept that animal welfare is a responsibility of humans, rather
than a right of animals, and is key to successfully navigating the social milieu on
this complex issue.

The Process of Informed Consent: The Perspectives of a Clinical
Investigator on the Past and Future
Nina Schooler
State University of New York Downstate Medical Center
The belief that patients who will be the subjects of research should have a say in
the matter is a relatively recent concept. It has required biomedical researchers
to re-define their relationships with the people who will be the subjects of
research. As is suggested by the title of this symposium, that re-definition has
been challenging and has changed over time. The goal has been to insure that
research subjects, now often called research participants, understand the nature
of the research they are being asked to take part in, including risks and benefits,
give their consent freely and are able to exercise the right to withdraw that
consent should they change their minds. Rather than considering the social and
institutional structures that have developed to implement protection procedures,
e.g. Institutional Review Boards and their support system, I will focus on the
interaction between the research investigator and the person who is the potential
subject of research. I will first describe the implementation of procedures to
obtain informed consent and how this implementation has changed over time. I
will then examine the implications of the exclusion of individuals who do not
consent to participate on the results of clinical studies. This will be followed
by discussion of novel strategies to improve understanding of the risks and
benefits of potential research participation. The presentation will conclude with
recommendations for improvements to the process of informing people that leads
to enhanced understanding. The hope is that enhanced understanding can lead to
increased rates of participation and thus to clinical research that is more valid and
generalizable to the patent populations whose lives we hope to improve.

Mentorship-style advice and information will be provided to facilitate the
advancement of Associate Members, including tips on how to negotiate for faculty
positions and compare opportunities across institutions; suggestions on how to
progress from a K award to a R01 award; perspectives on obtaining foundation
grants and grants from industry sponsors; information about how to become a
more active member in ACNP, along with thoughts on achieving a manageable
balance of time and energy participating in organizations like ACNP as well
as other duties; reflections on hitting the right personal balance for attending
to demands of career versus the needs of partners/spouses and children. Data
from a variety of perspectives (basic and clinical scientists; men and women;
PhDs and MDs; individuals funded 100% for scientific work, and individuals
in administrative positions; individuals who have worked in different types of
institutional settings).
Representatives of the new Member Advisory Task Force Committee (Linda
PA Carpenter and Paul Holtzheimer) will act as moderators for this lively and
interactive session. A panel of “Experts” comprised of ACNP leaders and
successful senior scientists will be gathered to address critical topics of interest
to their junior colleagues in the College. Since the path to career success and
personal fulfillment may vary considerably from one individual to the next (based
on different backgrounds, circumstances, interests, skills and career goals), each
panelist will be asked to address questions or topics, posed by the moderators

Career Development Program (continued)
during this program, from their own unique professional perspective. In addition
to describing their best and most timely mentoring pearls, panelists may be asked
to share lessons learned from their own (good or bad) past experiences with
career development challenges. Moderators will facilitate a discussion of why/
how some strategies offered by the panel may be particularly useful for some,
but not all, of our Associate Members, given certain professional and personal
considerations. Moderators will also facilitate the identification of career
development advice that achieves consensus endorsement by many or all of the
panel members. Associate members may send suggestions for names of expert
panel members, and for specific questions/topics for consideration, in advance
of the annual meeting. Invited panel members will be given a list of topics/
questions that reflect the needs/requests of the junior membership in advance
of the program, so they can prepare their thoughts. However, the format of this
program is informal, as panelists will not be asked to deliver slide presentations. PA
