RATIONALE: Clozapine N-oxide (CNO) has been developed as a ligand to selectively activate designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs (DREADDs). However, previous studies have revealed that peripherally injected CNO is reverse-metabolized into clozapine, which, in addition to activating DREADDs, acts as an antagonist at various neurotransmitter receptors, suggesting potential off-target effects of CNO on animal physiology and behaviors. Recently, second-generation DREADD agonists compound 21 (C21) and JHU37160 (J60) have been developed, but their off-target effects are not fully understood.
OBJECTIVES: The present studies assessed the effect of novel DREADD ligands on reward-seeking behavior.
METHODS: We first tested the possible effect of acute i.p. injection of low-to-moderate (0.1, 0.3, 1, 3 mg/kg) of CNO, C21, and J60 on motivated reward-seeking behavior in wild-type mice. We then examined whether a high dose (10 mg/kg) of these drugs might be able to alter responding.
RESULTS: Low-to-moderate doses of all drugs and a high dose of CNO or C21 did not alter operant lick responding for a reward under a progressive ratio schedule of reinforcement, in which the number of operant lick responses to obtain a reward increases after each reward collection. However, high-dose J60 resulted in a total lack of responding that was later observed in an open field arena to be due to a sedative effect.
CONCLUSIONS: This study provides definitive evidence that commonly used doses of CNO, C21, and J60 have negligible off-target effects on motivated reward-seeking but urges caution when using high doses of J60 due to sedative effects.
