Habits are theorized to play a key role in compulsive cocaine seeking, yet there is limited methodology for assessing habitual responding for intravenous (IV) cocaine. We developed a novel outcome devaluation procedure to discriminate goal-directed from habitual responding in cocaine-seeking rats. This procedure elicits devaluation temporarily and requires no additional training, allowing repeated testing at different time points. After training male rats to self-administer IV cocaine, we devalued the drug outcome via experimenter-administered IV cocaine (a “satiety” procedure) prior to a 10-min extinction test. Many rats were sensitive to outcome devaluation, a hallmark of goal-directed responding. These animals reduced responding when given a dose of experimenter-administered cocaine that matched or exceeded satiety levels during self-administration. However, other rats were insensitive to experimenter-administered cocaine, suggesting their responding was habitual. Importantly, reinforcement schedules and neural manipulations that produce goal-directed responding (i.e., ratio schedules or dorsolateral striatum lesions) caused sensitivity to outcome devaluation, whereas reinforcement schedules and neural manipulations that produce habitual responding (i.e., interval schedules or dorsomedial striatum lesions) caused insensitivity. Satiety-based outcome devaluation is an innovative new tool to dissect the neural and behavioral mechanisms underlying IV cocaine-seeking behavior.

使用新颖的结果贬值程序区分大鼠的目标导向和习惯性可卡因寻找

从理论上讲,习惯在强迫性寻求可卡因方面发挥着关键作用,但评估静脉注射 (IV) 可卡因的习惯反应的方法有限。我们开发了一种新颖的结果贬值程序,以区分寻求可卡因的大鼠的目标导向和习惯性反应。此过程会暂时引起贬值,无需额外培训,允许在不同时间点重复测试。在训练雄性大鼠自行静脉注射可卡因后,我们在 10 分钟的消退测试之前通过实验者静脉注射可卡因(“饱腹感”程序)来降低药物结果的价值。许多老鼠对结果贬值很敏感,这是目标导向反应的标志。当实验者给予的可卡因剂量与自我给药期间的饱腹感水平相匹配或超过时,这些动物的反应会减弱。然而,其他老鼠对实验者施用的可卡因不敏感,这表明它们的反应是习惯性的。重要的是,产生目标导向反应(即比率计划或背外侧纹状体损伤)的强化计划和神经操作导致对结果贬值的敏感性,而产生习惯性反应(即间隔计划或背内侧纹状体损伤)的强化计划和神经操作导致结果贬值。不敏感。基于饱腹感的结果贬值是一种创新的新工具,可以剖析静脉注射可卡因寻求行为背后的神经和行为机制。其他老鼠对实验者施用的可卡因不敏感,这表明它们的反应是习惯性的。重要的是,产生目标导向反应(即比率计划或背外侧纹状体损伤)的强化计划和神经操作导致对结果贬值的敏感性,而产生习惯性反应(即间隔计划或背内侧纹状体损伤)的强化计划和神经操作导致结果贬值。不敏感。基于饱腹感的结果贬值是一种创新的新工具,可以剖析静脉注射可卡因寻求行为背后的神经和行为机制。其他老鼠对实验者施用的可卡因不敏感,这表明它们的反应是习惯性的。重要的是,产生目标导向反应(即比率计划或背外侧纹状体损伤)的强化计划和神经操作导致对结果贬值的敏感性,而产生习惯性反应(即间隔计划或背内侧纹状体损伤)的强化计划和神经操作导致结果贬值。不敏感。基于饱腹感的结果贬值是一种创新的新工具,可以剖析静脉注射可卡因寻求行为背后的神经和行为机制。比率计划或背外侧纹状体损伤)导致对结果贬值的敏感性,而产生习惯性反应的强化计划和神经操作(即间隔计划或背内侧纹状体损伤)导致不敏感。基于饱腹感的结果贬值是一种创新的新工具,可以剖析静脉注射可卡因寻求行为背后的神经和行为机制。比率计划或背外侧纹状体损伤)导致对结果贬值的敏感性,而产生习惯性反应的强化计划和神经操作(即间隔计划或背内侧纹状体损伤)导致不敏感。基于饱腹感的结果贬值是一种创新的新工具,可以剖析静脉注射可卡因寻求行为背后的神经和行为机制。
