BACKGROUND: There is evidence that post-training exposure to nicotine, cocaine, and their conditioned stimuli (CS), enhance memory consolidation in rats. The present study assessed the effects of blocking noradrenergic and dopaminergic receptors on nicotine and cocaine unconditioned and conditioned memory modulation.
METHODS: Males Sprague-Dawley rats tested on the spontaneous object recognition task received post-sample exposure to 0.4 mg/kg nicotine, 20 mg/kg cocaine, or their CSs, in combination with 5-10 mg/kg propranolol (PRO; beta-adrenergic antagonist) or 0.2-0.6 mg/kg pimozide (PIM; dopamine D2 receptor antagonist). The CSs were established by confining rats in a chamber (the CS +) after injections of 0.4 mg/kg nicotine, or 20 mg/kg cocaine, for 2 h and in another chamber (the CS -) after injections of vehicle, repeated over 10 days (5 drug/CS + and 5 vehicle/CS - pairings in total). Object memory was tested 72 h post sample in drug-free animals.
RESULTS: Co-administration of PRO or PIM blocked the memory-enhancing effects of post-training injections of nicotine, cocaine, and, importantly, exposure to their CSs.
CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that nicotine, cocaine as well as their conditioned stimuli share actions on overlapping noradrenergic and dopaminergic systems to modulate memory consolidation.
