ABSTRACT
Studies have shown that protein phosphorylation plays an important role in morphine abuse. However, the neurobiological mechanism of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) underlying the morphine-priming process is still unclear. Here we constructed T29-2-Cre; PP2Afl/fl conditional knockout mice (KO) and investigated the role of hippocampal PP2A in morphine priming. We observed that the deficit of PP2A inhibited the priming behavior of morphine and blocked the priming-induced long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus of KO mice. Moreover, the expression levels of Rack1 and the membrane GluN2B were significantly reduced in the nucleus accumbens of KO mice compared with those in the control mice, which may be attributed to the decreased HDAC4 in the hippocampus of KO mice. Consistent with it, the similar inhibited priming effects were also observed in the wild-type mice treated with sodium butyrate (NaB)-a nonspecific inhibitor of histone deacetylases-3 h after morphine administration. Taken together, our results suggest that hippocampal PP2A may be involved in morphine priming through the PP2A/HDAC4/Rack1 pathway.
