Amphetamine regulates gene expression in rat striatum via transcription factor CREB
C Konradi, RL Cole, S Heckers and SE Hyman
Laboratory of Molecular and Developmental Neuroscience, Massachusetts General Hospital, Charlestown 02129.
Amphetamine is a psychostimulant drug of abuse that can produce long- lived
changes in behavior including sensitization and dependence. The neural
substrates of these drug effects remain unknown, but based on their
prolonged time course, we hypothesize that they involve drug- induced
alterations in gene expression. It has recently been demonstrated that
amphetamine regulates the expression of several genes, including c-fos, via
dopamine D1 receptors in rat striatum. Here we report that amphetamine
induces phosphorylation of transcription factor cAMP response element
binding protein (CREB) in rat striatum in vivo and that dopamine D1
receptor stimulation induces phosphorylation of CREB within specific
complexes bound to cAMP regulatory elements. In addition, we show by
antisense injection that CREB is necessary for c- fos induction by
amphetamine in vivo. Since CREB has been implicated in the activation of a
number of immediate-early genes as well as several neuropeptide genes, CREB
phosphorylation may be an important early nuclear event mediating long-term
consequences of amphetamine administration.
