Abstract

Cytokine-specific alterations of monoamine activity were evident in the hypothalamus, hippocampus and prefrontal cortex 2 h following peripheral administration of recombinant interleukin (IL)-1 beta, IL-2 and IL-6 (200 ng, i.p.) in male, BALB/c mice. IL-1 induced the broadest range of neurochemical changes, affecting central norepinephrine (NE), serotonin (5-HT) and dopamine (DA) activity. In particular, IL-1 enhanced NE turnover in the hypothalamus and hippocampus, 5-HT turnover in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex (owing to increased utilization and reduced content of the transmitters in these brain regions), and enhanced DA utilization in the prefrontal cortex. IL-6 increased 5-HT and DA activity in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex in a manner similar to IL-1, but failed to affect central NE activity. Moreover, IL-2 increased hypothalamic NE turnover (reflecting a profound increase in NE utilization) and enhanced DA turnover in the prefrontal cortex, but did not influence central 5-HT activity. Hence, these cytokines differentially altered neurochemical activity in brain regions that mediate neuroimmune interactions and that are influenced by physical and psychological stressors. In addition to the neurochemical changes, plasma corticosterone concentrations were profoundly enhanced in IL-1-treated animals, but not significantly altered by IL-2 or IL-6 treatment. The IL-1-induced corticosterone elevations did not significantly correlate with alterations of hypothalamic NE activity.

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.
