摘要

The behavioral hyperactivity elicited by most drugs of abuse has been linked to changes in mesolimbic dopamine neurotransmission. However, the locomotor stimulant effects of toluene, a constituent in many abused inhalants, has not been clearly associated with this site of action. The present study was designed to examine the hypothesis that toluene-induced hyperactivity is also dependent upon intact dopamine neurotransmission. Using photocell-equipped cages, 600-1200 mg/kg toluene produced an inverted U-shaped dose response. However, in the presence of 5 mg/kg remoxipride, a selective D2-dopamine antagonist toluene-induced hyperactivity was reduced by 57%. The effects of remoxipride appear to be selective as a pretreatment, as it did not reduce either spontaneous locomotor activity or the stimulatory effects of the muscarinic antagonist scopolamine. These results clearly show that toluene induces locomotor hyperactivity through a dopamine-dependent mechanism. Because the mesolimbic dopamine system has been shown to play a role in the rewarding properties of drugs of abuse, its activation by toluene may also underlie the abuse potential of this and other inhalants.
