Summary
Background / Purpose: To determine if clinically effective deep brain stimulation (DBS) of neurosurgical targets for treatment-resistant depression regulates transient mesoaccumbens dopamine release in control and antidepressant-resistant animals (rats).
Main conclusion: In control rats, DBS stimulation of either the nucleus accumbens or infralimbic cortex significantly attenuated transient mesoaccumbens dopamine efflux, with nucleus accumbens DBS inducing a greater attenuation than infralimbic DBS. High frequency DBS of both targets induced long-term depression of transient accumbens dopamine release, lasting > 2hr post DBS.
Conversely, in antidepressant-resistant rats, infralimbic DBS significantly potentiated transient mesoaccumbens dopamine efflux during stimulation, but failed to induce long-lasting changes in neurotransmission. This suggests that a key mechanism of DBS for treatment-resistant depression is the regulation of dysfunctional mesoaccumbens dopamine neurotransmission.
