- W2323367752 abstract "Event Abstract Back to Event The role of AVT in the modulation of the circadian rhythmicity of EOD basal rate in South American weakly electric fish. Adriana Migliaro1, 2 and Ana Silva1, 2* 1 Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad de la República, Instituto de Biología, Uruguay 2 Instituto de Investigaciones Biológicas Clemente Estable, Uruguay Keeping an adequate timing among physiological and behavioral processes is a key point for survival. Endogenous biological rhythms are synchronized with external cues, mainly photoperiod, which vary in circadian and circa annual fashion. In South American weakly electric fish, the basal rate of the electric organ discharge (EOD-BR) shows a nocturnal rise in coincidence with arousal and with the increase of locomotor activity (Silva et al, 2005). EOD-BR is driven by the medullary pacemaker nucleus (PN), whose activity is not only modulated by the circadian system but also by environmental, sensory, and social cues (Kawasaki et al, 1988). By exerting an effect on a specific nucleus (PN), neuromodulators act on the organism’s arousal as well as on communication in different social contexts. ¿How is this neuromodulation system shaped in the CNS? Previous studies in teleosts show that melatonin, a key hormone in circadian regulation, is also a neuromodulator acting on areas linked to social activity (hypothalamic preoptic area) (Falcón et al, 2010). On the other hand, arginine-vasotocin (AVT), the hypothalamic neuropeptide known to modulate social behavior, has been recently related to EOD-BR increases in the gregarious species, Brachyhypopomus gauderio but not in the solitary one, Gymnotus omarorum (Perrone et al, 2010). In order to assess the contribution of AVT to the circadian rise in EOD-BR, the EOD of isolated non-sexually mature adults of both species was recorded continuously during 5 days at constant water temperature and conductivity (22°C, 150µS/cm), and with a light-dark cycle 12:12. At day 3, fish were either injected with AVT (1µg/g), AVT V1a receptor antagonist (Manning compound, 1µg/g) or saline. AVT treated fish showed a larger increase in the nocturnal rise of EOD-BR than saline controls in B. gauderio but not in G. omarorum. The administration of Manning compound in B. gauderio lowered the nocturnal rise of EOD-BR with respect to saline controls. Our data suggest that that the AVTergic system involved in the modulation of the circadian rhythm of EOD rate of B. gauderio but is not the only determinant of it. However, the picture is less clear for G. omarorum. Whether the AVTergic system is involved in the circadian regulation in just one or both species, and to which extent, is a key point for better understanding the evolution of neuromodulation systems.
