Resistance to cocaine addiction may be passed down from father to son

Posted on by

London, December 17 (ANI): A new study found that sons of male rats exposed to cocaine are resistant to the rewarding effects of the drug, suggesting that cocaine-induced changes in physiology are passed down from father to son.

The study was carried out by researchers from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH).

"We know that genetic factors contribute significantly to the risk of cocaine abuse, but the potential role of epigenetic influences - how the expression of certain genes related to addiction is controlled - is still relatively unknown," said senior author R. Christopher Pierce, PhD, associate professor of Neuroscience in Psychiatry at Penn.

"This study is the first to show that the chemical effects of cocaine use can be passed down to future generations to cause a resistance to addictive behavior, indicating that paternal exposure to toxins such as cocaine can have profound effects on gene expression and behavior in their offspring," he commented.

In the current study, the team used an animal model to study inherited effects of cocaine abuse. Male rats self-administered cocaine for 60 days, while controls were administered saline. The male rats were mated with females that had never been exposed to the drug. To eliminate any influence that the males' behavior would have on the pregnant females, they were separated directly after they mated.

The rats' offspring were monitored to see whether they would begin to self-administer cocaine when it was offered to them. The researchers discovered that male offspring of rats exposed to the drug, but not the female offspring, acquired cocaine self-administration more slowly and had decreased levels of cocaine intake relative to controls.

Moreover, control animals were willing to work significantly harder for a single cocaine dose than the offspring of cocaine-addicted rats, suggesting that the rewarding effect of cocaine was decreased.

In collaboration with Ghazaleh Sadri-Vakili, MS, PhD, from MGH, the researchers subsequently examined the animals' brains and found that male offspring of the cocaine-addicted rats had increased levels of a protein in the prefrontal cortex called brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which is known to blunt the behavioral effects of cocaine.

"We were quite surprised that the male offspring of sires that used cocaine didn't like cocaine as much," said Pierce.

"While we identified one change in the brain that appears to underlie this cocaine resistance effect, there are undoubtedly other physiological changes as well and we are currently performing more broad experiments to identify them. We also are eager to perform similar studies with more widely used drugs of abuse such as nicotine and alcohol," he noted.

Integrative Nutrition Founder Joshua Rosenthal and Key Graduates Organize Health Coaching Conference to Support International Students and Empower the Hispanic Community

New York, NY (PRWEB) December 17, 2012

I am thrilled to announce this special international event in Mexico City to support our students and to empower our Hispanic community, says Integrative Nutrition Founder, Director, and Primary Teacher Joshua Rosenthal, MScEd. The Integrative Nutrition community has expanded to over 30,000 students and graduates in over 100 countries worldwide, and my focus for 2013 is to better connect with and support our international community. This conference is a great opportunity for students and graduates to study together in a small setting in Mexico and learn from one another on a personal level.

Integrative Nutrition trains students in nutrition education, health coaching, and business skills, through their signature Health Coach Training Program. The courses innovative online learning platform reaches students all over the globe, helping students launch successful health coaching careers in their local communities.

The Mexico City Conference is possible due to the hard work and initiative of four Integrative Nutrition graduates, who are coordinating the event: Gabriela Bambrick-Santoyo and Caren Laboy, both Class of 2012, and Georgina Ferrer and Anaclara Arizmendi Salem, both Class of 2011.

Today we are facing a global health and well-being crisis that affects everyone, said Gabriela Bambrick-Santoyo. We have the gift of being a part of Integrative Nutrition and we need to be a strong community ourselves in order to reach more people more effectively. Personally, I hope to learn from my colleagues and from Joshua, and to exchange ideas and experiences with my fellow coaches. I also hope our group will gather strength and inspiration from being and learning together.

The conference has a limited audience of 100200 students to keep the sessions small and the learning intimate. Attendees will have the opportunity to share personal stories about how they launched their health coaching careers, sharpen their coaching skills, and connect and collaborate with other wellness professionals.

I started Integrative Nutrition over 20 years ago from my living room in Toronto, Canada, said Rosenthal. It is so gratifying and exciting to see how we are making such an impact all over the world. With more than 30,000 students and graduates, we are creating a ripple effect of health and happiness that is reaching millions of people. I appreciate our community for continuing to do this important work.
