TAK‐137 was synthesized by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (Fujisawa, Japan) and suspended in 0.5% (w/v) methylcellulose in distilled water; oral administration (p.o.) was conducted at a volume of 2 mL kg−1 in rats, 20 mL kg−1 in mice, and 5 mL kg−1 in monkeys. A solution of 0.5% methylcellulose was administered as the vehicle control. Methamphetamine hydrochloride (METH, Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma, Osaka, Japan) at 0.5 mg kg−1 and (+)‐MK‐801 hydrogen maleate (MK‐801, Sigma‐Aldrich St Louis, MO) at 0.08 or 0.1 mg kg−1 were dissolved in 0.9% saline and subcutaneously administered (s.c.) to rats at a volume of 2 mL kg−1. Phencyclidine hydrochloride (PCP, Sigma‐Aldrich, Poole, UK) (2 mg kg−1) was dissolved in 0.9% saline and administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) to rats at a volume of 1 mL kg−1 twice per day for 7 days. Ketamine hydrochloride (KETALAR, Daiichi Sankyo Propharma Co. Ltd, Tokyo, Japan) was dissolved in 0.9% saline and administered intramuscularly (i.m.) to monkeys at a volume of 5 mL kg−1.

Investigating Ghrelin and PCP Interactions

All drugs used were dissolved in a physiological saline solution (0.9 % NaCl) in the morning on the day of the experiment and administered in a volume of 2 ml/kg via intra peritoneal (i.p.) injections. Acyl ghrelin (Tocris, Bristol, UK) was given in a dose range (0.033, 0.1, and 0.33 mg/kg) that previously has been shown to affect feeding responses, central c-Fos expression, and behavior (Hewson and Dickson 2000 (link); Wren et al. 2000 (link); Davis et al. 2007 (link)). The doses of the selective GHSR-1A neutral antagonist, JMV 2959 (a gift from AeternaZentaris GmBH, Frankfurt, Germany), used for the JMV 2959 dose response were 1, 3, and 6 mg/kg. The 3 and 6 mg/kg doses have previously been shown to inhibit ghrelin and fasting-induced feeding and affect various behavioral responses (Salome et al. 2009 (link)). Phencyclidine hydrochloride (PCP, Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) was given at a dose of 2 mg/kg, which is known to produce robust disruptions of PPI (Geyer et al. 2001 (link)). The sub-threshold dose of PCP used was 0.75 mg/kg which has no or very weak effects on PPI (Geyer et al. 2001 (link)). For the interaction studies between PCP and JMV 2959 or ghrelin, a dose of 2 mg/kg of JMV 2959 and 0.33 mg/kg of ghrelin was used.

Phencyclidine hydrochloride (PCP) (Sigma Aldrich, MO) was dissolved in 0.9% saline and administered by a subcutaneous (s.c.) injection of a volume of 2 ml/kg and a concentration of 2 mg/kg. Aripiprazole (Forest Laboratories, NY) was suspended in 2% Tween 80 in distilled H2O and administered by oral (p.o.) gavage (1, 3, or 10 mg/kg). Cariprazine HCl (Forest Laboratories, NY) was also dissolved in 2% Tween 80 and administered p.o. (0.03, 0.1, or 0.3 mg/kg). Drugs were administered according to the treatment regimen described as follows by an experimenter blind to all treatment groups throughout testing.

Pharmacological Evaluation of EGIS 11150

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All solutions were freshly prepared and mice were administered a volume of 10 mL/kg (ip. and sc.) or 20 mL/kg (p.o.). Rats received a volume of 5 mL/kg for p.o. and 2 mL/kg for ip. and sc. treatments.
EGIS 11150 (4-Chloro-5-{2-[4-(6-fluoro-benzo[d]isoxazol-3-yl)-piperidin-1-yl]-ethylamino}-2-methyl-2H-pyridazin-3-one;), risperidone and olanzapine were synthesized by EGIS Pharmaceuticals PLC. Budapest Hungary. Phencyclidine hydrochloride (PCP) was from Sigma (St. Louis MO, USA, or Tocris Biosciences, Bristol, UK), as were atropine and prazosin; ZD7288 and gabazine were from Tocris Biosciences (UK), and ketamine, haloperidol and clozapine from RBI (Natick, MA, USA). For the EEG experiments PCP, ketamine and the other drugs were dissolved in 0.9% NaCl containing agar. Phencyclidine hydrochloride was suspended in 0.4 % (w/v) hydroxypropyl methylcellulose solution (Methocell F4 M, Dow Chemical Company, Midland, MI, USA). The doses administered were calculated on the basis of the salt.

Pharmacological Evaluation of 25CN-NBOH Interactions

2-([2-(4-Cyano-2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)ethylamino]methyl)phenol hydrochloride (25CN-NBOH; Tocris Bioscience, Minneapolis, MN, USA); LY379268 (donated by the NIMH Chemical Synthesis and Drug Supply Program, RTI International, Research Triangle Park, NC, USA); 6-chloro-2,3-dihydro-5-methyl-N-[6-[(2-methyl-3-pyridinyl)oxy]-3-pyridinyl]-1H-indole-1-carboxamide dihydrochloride (SB242084; Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, USA); (R)-(+)-α-(2,3-dimethoxyphenyl)-1-[2-(4-fluorophenyl)ethyl]-4-piperidinemethanol (M100907; donated by Hoechst Marion Roussel Inc., Kansas City, MO, USA); and phencyclidine hydrochloride (PCP; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). All drugs were dissolved in water containing 1% Tween 80 and administered SC, except for PCP, which was dissolved in saline and administered IP. Drugs were injected at a volume of 5 mL/kg. At the concentrations used in these experiments, aqueous solutions of LY379268 are relatively acidic (pH = ~3). Stress can alter the HTR induced by hallucinogens (Yamada et al. 1995 (link)); hence, any discomfort caused by injection of LY379268 could potentially influence the behavioral response produced by 25CN-NBOH. Pilot experiments, however, confirmed that the response to LY379268 and 25CN-NBOH is not affected by the pH of the pretreatment injection.

We used phencyclidine hydrochloride (PCP; Sigma-Aldrich) 10 mg/kg, 5+5 days, as in Rajagopal et al. (2014) (link); risperidone (RIS; Sigma-Aldrich) 0.5 mg/kg, 14 consecutive days. PCP was administered subcutaneously (SC) and risperidone intraperitoneally (IP). The following pharmacological groups were investigated: sPCP (n = 21 mice), sPCP-RIS (n = 9), and their corresponding saline controls: SAL (n = 8), sPCP-SAL (n = 7), SAL-SAL (n = 8; Figure 1B and Supplementary Figure 1).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
