Decreased BDNF levels in amygdala and hippocampus after intracerebroventricular administration of ouabain

Abstract: Objective: e present study aims to investigate the e ects of ouabain intracerebroventricular injection on BDNF levels in the amygdala and hippocampus of Wistar rats. Methods: Animals received a single intracerebroventricular injection of ouabain (10 -3 and 10 -2 M) or arti cial cerebrospinal uid and immediately, 1h, 24h, or seven days a er injection, BDNF levels were measured in the rat's amygdala and hippocampus by sandwich-ELISA (n = 8 animals per group). Results: When evaluated immediately, 3h, or 24h a er … Show more

“…Studies with this animal model showed that manic-like hyperactivity induced by ouabain is associated with severe brain damage, increasing formation of lipid and protein oxidation products in the frontal cortex and hippocampus of rats [19,32,33]. In addition, the ICV ouabain injection decreased BDNF levels in the hippocampus of animals submitted to this model [18,34]. In this context, several studies have reported Na + /K + -ATPase alterations in BD patients [30,35,36].…”
