Reduction of sucrose preference by chronic unpredictable mild stress, and its restoration by a tricyclic antidepressant
Abstract
Rats exposed chronically (5-9 weeks) to a variety of mild unpredictable stressors showed a reduced consumption of and preference for saccharin or sucrose solutions. Preference deficits took at least 2 weeks to develop and were maintained for more than 2 weeks after termination of the stress regime. Sucrose preference was unaffected by 1 week of treatment with the tricyclic antidepressant DMI but returned to normal after 2-4 weeks of DMI treatment. DMI did not alter sucrose preference in unstressed animals. No significant changes were seen in saline preference either during stress or following drug treatment. DMI reduced blood corticosterone and glucose levels, but stress did not significantly alter either measure. The results are discussed in terms of an animal model of endogenous depression.

The sucrose preference test measures the ability to feel joy by studying rats' binge on a sugary solution.
“We were interested in evaluating the efficacy of studying the effects of this stress protocol using the sucrose preference test -a test that measures the ability to feel joy by studying how rats, when given the chance, will binge on a sugary solution 14 .”

Chronic and sequential exposure of rats or mice to a mild stress regimen causes decreases in responsiveness to rewards, including decreased consumption of and preference for sucrose solutions and decreased rewarding properties of pharmacological and natural rewards in the place preference paradigm.
“In particular, Willner and colleagues originally reported that chronic and sequential exposure of rats or mice to a mild stress regimen caused decreases in responsiveness to rewards [190,191], commonly reported as a decrease in the consumption of and preference for sucrose solutions, and a decrease in the rewarding properties of pharmacological and natural rewards in the place preference behavior”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
