Ovariectomized mice on a high fat diet represent a model of diet-induced obesity during estrogen deficiency. Here, we tested the hypothesis that sensitivity to centrally administered leptin in ovariectomized mice with diet-induced obesity could be restored by estrogen supplementation. Ovariectomized mice on a high fat diet developed extreme obesity and hyperleptinemia and moderate hyperinsulinemia compared to those on a standard diet.

The acute behavioral effects of cocaine were evaluated in open-field, elevated plus-maze and forced swimming tests. Results were compared between a group of 80 mice consuming a balanced diet and a high-fat diet, and a group of 80 mice fed a commercially available rodent chow formula Ralston Purina but receiving recombinant leptin rLeptin or saline ip. These results suggest that anxiolytic effects and increased general activity were induced by leptin in cocaine-treated mice and that low leptin levels are associated with behavioral depression. Chronic changes in diet composition producing high leptin levels or rLeptin treatment may result in an altered response to cocaine in ethologic tests that measure degrees of anxiety and depression, which could be attributed to an antagonistic effect of leptin. Behavioral changes induced by cocaine in mice are modified by a hyperlipidic diet or recombinant leptin. Correspondence and Footnotes E. Erhardt, L. Zibetti, J. Godinho, B. Bacchieri and H. It is currently recognized that appetite expression, body adiposity control, beginning of puberty, behavioral and affective changes, among other functions, are chemically coded in the hypothalamus. The derangement of neurochemical signaling in the hypothalamus by environmental, genetic and hormonal factors may produce hyperphagia, anorexia and anomalies of sexual development and gonadal function 1. Leptin, our study target, is a recently discovered hormone which was initially considered to be a feeding regulator 2,3. Leptin is produced in many organs and secreted mainly by adipose tissue. It plays an important role in the control of food ingestion, in the reproductive system and in several steps involved in metabolism, such as insulin secretion, lipolysis and glucose transport. However, one of its most important physiological roles is to signal the nutritional status during periods of food deprivation Leptin levels vary widely among individuals with similar body compositions and in depressed and anorectic patients, suggesting that factors other than body adiposity modulate leptin secretion In fact, the fat content of a meal and habitual dietary fat content, but not carbohydrate or protein intake, are important factors that can modify leptin secretion It has been observed that body mass index BMI, the quotient of weight kg divided by the square of the height m 2 can be correlated with serum leptin levels linearly in both men and women This relation was not seen in depressed patients, suggesting a disturbed regulation of leptin secretion in mood disorders In fact, these patients present more intense leptin secretion during the night when compared to normal subjects, despite a reported weight loss by the majority of patients A sexual dimorphism was seen between depressed and normal patients, with higher leptin levels in females There are other factors that suggest a role of leptin in mood disorders. Leptin stimulates the sympathetic nervous system whereas both galanin and neuropeptide Y NPY reduce sympathetic tone NPY has anxiolytic activity, and leptin, which antagonizes the action of NPY, may have anxiogenic effects In addition, leptin administration inhibits diencephalic nitric oxide synthase, thus increasing serotonin metabolism in mice Since serotonin has a role in depressive diseases, it is possible that leptin may play a role in mood regulation 13, The elevated consumption of foods rich in calories such as high-fat food, associated with low physical activity, have led to an increase in obesity in the developing world, particularly among children and adolescents 20, In addition, cocaine addiction represents another important problem in modern society and the consumption of this drug has been increasing among teenagers It has been extensively reported that cocaine alters the reward system, thus impairing the effects of natural rewards, such as eating, drinking, sex, and social interactions On this basis, it is important to determine a possible interaction between high-fat foods as enhancers of leptin production and behavioral changes induced by cocaine. Thus, the objective of the present study was to determine whether the acute behavioral effects of cocaine are influenced by exogenous treatment with leptin or by enhanced endogenous production of leptin through a high-fat diet. Animals were randomly divided into two groups of 40 animals each. During this period, the animals were weighed three times a week. According to the method reported by Lin et al. Drugs were administered 60 min before the open-field test, 30 min before the plus-maze test, and 24, 5, and 1 h before the forced swim test. Behavioral tests were applied once a day starting on the 46th day of the special diet, in the following order: open-field, elevated plus-maze and forced swimming test. The cages were carried to test rooms, illuminated with a red fluorescent light on the ceiling, and each test was recorded on a video recording system for further analysis. Thumbnail Table 1. Composition of the balanced and high-fat diets in macronutrients offered to the animals diet contained minerals and vitamins. Drugs were administered according to the same schedule as in Experiment 1. After an adaptation time of 1 week in our laboratory, mice were submitted to the behavioral tests in the same daily sequence as described in Experiment 1, i. All tests were performed in a quiet and dark room lighted by a red ceiling fluorescent lamp and behaviors were recorded on a video recording system for later analysis. The animal is placed inside a lighted arena from which it cannot escape, and patterns of ambulation and behaviors such as rearing, grooming, and defecation are observed for brief periods of time. The open-field used was a circular arena 90 cm in diameter, with a center circle 40 cm in diameter with cm high acrylic walls covered with white paper. The mouse was placed in the center of the arena and allowed to explore for 5 min The elevated plus-maze consisted of a black acrylic cross of two closed arms 30 x 5 x 15 cm and two open arms 30 x 5 cm raised 50 cm above the floor. For each test, the mouse was placed in the center of the cross facing an open arm and was allowed to explore the maze for 5 min. Behavior was recorded for analysis during the last 4 min of the test. It was noted that, if mice are forced to swim in an inevitable situation, first they present a vigorous attitude, as if looking for an exit, and later they remain immobile, performing only the movements necessary to keep their heads out of water. When significant differences were found, subgroup analysis was performed with the Student-Newman-Keuls test using the statistical package Sigma Stat for Windows, version 2. No difference in body weight gain was observed between mice that received a balanced diet and mice that received a high-fat diet. High-fat-fed mice were less susceptible to the stimulant effects of cocaine when compared to mice that received a balanced diet. The latter presented an increase in locomotion and exploration when compared to the former. In Experiment 2 there was no interaction between leptin and cocaine. Administration of leptin did not alter the locomotor stimulant effects of cocaine. Regarding grooming behavior, in Experiment 1, the group of mice that received a high-fat diet showed lower intensity compared to the group of mice maintained on a balanced diet Table 2. However, in Experiment 2, administration of leptin did not change the increase in grooming that followed cocaine administration Table 3. Interaction between cocaine and the hormonal condition was observed for some behaviors. Thumbnail Table 2.

In rodents, high-fat intake may be associated with increased serum leptin and obesity, and these leptin levels are related to the amount of body lipid 13, It was our objective to compare data for high-fat-fed mice with those for mice receiving a dose of rLeptin, in behavioral tests in order to detect changes in animal behavior due to leptin. In contrast to other methods used to study anxious behavior in rodents, such as the elevated plus-maze, the open-field test allows a comprehensive description of the animal's behavior, since more behaviors can be readily observed and quantified 30, Locomotion, a behavioral that can be interpreted as an adaptation to a stressful situation, was affected by an interaction between high-fat or balanced diets and cocaine or saline treatments in the first experiment. In Experiment 2, mice that had received cocaine also showed significant hyperactivity and leptin decreased this effect. Therefore, the results demonstrate that mice treated with cocaine display higher locomotion and that a high-fat diet or leptin treatment decrease this behavioral effect This could be interpreted as an antagonism of leptin against the effects of cocaine. It might be suggested that the effect of leptin is an adaptation to stressful situations. Grooming behavior might also be considered to be an index of behavioral adaptation to a stressful situation. Increased grooming behavior has been related to fear or an increased emotional response, and has been associated with conflict or frustration in different species. Cocaine treatment induces an increase in grooming, but this effect was dependent on the diet. The mice fed a high-fat diet displayed lower frequencies of grooming compared to mice fed a balanced diet. Leptin treatment also decreased grooming behaviors after cocaine treatment. All of these results point to a possible anxiolytic effect of leptin in the open-field test. As pointed out by Rogerio and Takahashi 35 in their experiment about the anxiogenic action of cocaine in mice, the ability of cocaine to induce anxiogenic effects in mice may depend, at least in part, on the animals' emotional state. They proposed that repeated handling made animals less anxious and more susceptible to the anxiogenic effects of cocaine. They concluded that a single cocaine injection induces anxiogenic-like effects in handling-habituated mice, while repeated injections of the drug did not alter the indices of anxiety as measured in the elevated plus-maze. This could be the case for our mice on special diets that were handled every two or three days. However, our animals showed the opposite effect with cocaine - an 'anxiolytic' effect in mice on a high-fat diet or receiving leptin spent more time in the open arms. Also important to note is that the anxiolytic effect of leptin became more evident in those animals exposed to the highest dose of cocaine, i. This effect has been rarely reported by other laboratories, but has been seen with Wistar rats in our laboratory Loebens M and Barros HMT, unpublished data on other occasions. The explanation for this effect still needs to be determined. We believe that cocaine decreases risk evaluation by the animals and induces open-arm entries in spite of the risk involved, due to the impulsivity-induced effect. High-fat-fed animals showed less immobility, spent more time swimming and climbing, and presented higher values of swimming frequency compared to mice fed a balanced diet. These results are consistent with the findings of Collin et al. In addition, a clinical study performed by Kraus and colleagues 37 showed low levels of leptin in depressed patients. In contrast, we found no difference in immobility between mice treated or not with leptin. Frederich and co-workers 29 demonstrated that a high-fat diet evokes a sustained increase in circulating leptin in both normal and transgenic mice, and high levels of leptin have been shown to increase energy expenditure. However, it is important to point out that, when animals on each diet type were divided into two groups - above or below the mean weight gain of control animals - no differences in behavior were detected between these groups. Leptin exerts its action through several other hormones in a cascade of reactions involving, for example, cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcripts CART. These CART peptides are neurotransmitters that have received much attention as mediators of feeding behavior and body weight regulation in mammals, and animal studies have demonstrated that CART expression is regulated by both leptin and glucocorticoids CART have also been implicated in the behavioral and neuroendocrine effects of leptin On the other hand, CART peptides have a role in drug abuse. It is important to note that injection of CART peptides into the VTA caused a small increase in locomotor activity and promoted conditioned place preference, suggesting that CART has psychostimulant-like effects. However, co-treatment of the animals with both intra-VTA CART and systemic cocaine produced only partially additive effects, and this additivity seemed to occur at lower concentrations of the drugs. At higher doses, CART tended to oppose the locomotor activity induced by systemic cocaine, acting as a functional 'partial agonist' in the VTA Also, we observed an increased anxiolytic effect as shown by an increase in percent time spent in the open arms in the elevated plus-maze test with increasing doses of cocaine and leptin. Mice that had received cocaine and no leptin showed higher locomotion values. Thus, we may conclude that leptin can change the effects of cocaine in mice by increasing CART expression, as reported in other studies. We have demonstrated that animals exposed to high leptin levels evoked by a high-fat diet or to rLeptin treatment can change the behavioral effects induced by cocaine in ethologic tests that measure degrees of anxiety and depression. Further studies are necessary to validate these findings and establish a link between cocaine effects and nutritional status in humans. Address for correspondence: E. Neuza G. Brizola, , Apto.
