- W4311702168 abstract "Abstract Sign-tracking (ST) describes the propensity to approach and contact a Pavlovian reward cue. By contrast, goal-trackers (GTs) respond to such a cue by retrieving the reward. These behaviors index the presence of opponent cognitive-motivational traits, with STs exhibiting attentional control deficits, behavior dominated by incentive motivational processes, and vulnerability for addictive drug taking. Attentional control deficits in STs were previously attributed to attenuated cholinergic signaling, resulting from deficient translocation of intracellular choline transporters (CHTs) into synaptosomal plasma membrane. Here we investigated a post-translational modification of CHTs – poly-ubiquitination - and tested the hypothesis that elevated cytokine signaling in STs contributes to CHT modification. We demonstrated that intracellular CHTs, but not plasma membrane CHTs, are highly ubiquitinated in male and female sign-tracking rats when compared with GTs. Moreover, levels of cytokines measured in cortex and striatum, but not spleen, were higher in STs than in GTs. Activation of the innate immune system by systemic administration of the bacterial endotoxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS) elevated ubiquitinated CHT levels in cortex and striatum of GTs only, suggesting ceiling effects in STs. In spleen, LPS increased levels of most cytokines in both phenotypes. In cortex, LPS particularly robustly increased levels of the chemokines CCL2 and CXCL10. Phenotype-specific increases were restricted to GTs, again suggesting ceiling effects in STs. These results indicate that interactions between elevated brain immune modulator signaling and CHT regulation are essential components of the neuronal underpinnings of the addiction vulnerability trait indexed by sign-tracking. Significance Statement Sign-tracking rats (STs) have emerged as a fruitful animal model for determining the neuro-behavioral foundations, including the cholinergic-attentional control deficits, which heighten the risk for the manifestation of addictive behaviors. The results from the present experiments suggest that, in STs, elevated levels of neuro-immune signaling interact with a post-translational modification of choline transporters that yields a relatively low transporter capacity. Furthermore, the effects of activation of the innate immune system, by administrating the endotoxin lipopolysaccharide, mechanistically supported such an interaction. The results extend research on the neuronal vulnerabilities for addictive behaviors to the role of neuro-immune signaling and suggests a new role of neuro-immune modulators in influencing complex cognitive-motivational traits." @default.
