Immune signals that contribute to addiction vulnerability identified in the brain umich SfNJournals
The results indicate elevated levels of ubiquitinated CHTs and of several cytokines in the brain, but not spleen, of STs, and that stimulation of the innate immune system further elevates CHT ubiquitination levels in parallel with increases in cytokine production. Together our findings signify a role of neuro-immune modulators in the regulation of the choline transporter, thereby suggesting a role of these modulators in the addiction vulnerability trait indexed by sign-tracking.
Following phenotype assessment, brain tissues and spleen were harvested to determine levels of brain CHT ubiquitination, brain and spleen cytokines and chemokines, and the effects of LPS on these measures. All experiments were designed to follow identical timelines, including animal housing periods, PCA testing periods, and the time between PCA testing and tissue harvesting .

Immune system cells in the gut linked to stress-induced depressionIn experiments with mice and humans, a team led by Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers says it has identified a particular intestinal immune cell that impacts the gut microbiome, which in turn may affect brain functions linked to stress-induced disorders such as depression. Targeting changes mediated by these immune cells in the gut, with drugs or other therapies, could potentially bring about new ways to treat depression.
