    Disruption of the CRF/CRF1 receptor stress system exacerbates the somatic signs of opiate withdrawal.

    Escape from the extremely stressful opiate withdrawal syndrome may motivate opiate seeking and taking. The corticotropin-releasing factor receptor-1 (CRF1) pathway mediates behavioral and endocrine responses to stress. Here, we report that genetic inactivation (CRF1-/-) as well as pharmacological antagonism of the CRF/CRF1 receptor pathway increased and prolonged the somatic expression of opiate withdrawal. Opiate-withdrawn CRF1-/- mice also showed aberrant CRF and dynorphin expression in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) and the striatum, indicating profound impairments in stress-responsive brain circuitry. Intake of nonstressful amounts of corticosterone effectively reduced the exaggerated somatic reactions of CRF1-/- mice to opiate withdrawal. Exogenous corticosterone also restored "wild-type-like" patterns of CRF and dynorphin gene expression in the PVN and the striatum of opiate-withdrawn CRF1-/- mice, respectively. The present findings unravel a key role for the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) system and brain extra-hypothalamic CRF/CRF1 receptor circuitry in somatic, molecular, and endocrine alterations induced by opiate withdrawal

    Pseudantechinus ningbing Kitchener, 1988. Rec. W. Aust. Mus., 14:62. TYPE LOCALITY: Australia, Western Australia, Kimberley region, Mitchell Plateau, ca. 220m, 14°53'40"S, 125°45'20"E.

    Pseudomys chapmani Kitchener 1980

    Pseudomys chapmani Kitchener, 1980. Rec. West. Aust. Mus., 8:405. TYPE LOCALITY: Australia, Western Australia, Pilbara Dist., East Hammersley Range, West Angelas Mine Site (Kitchener, 1980 provided additional information). DISTRIBUTION: Australia, NW Western Australia; extant specimens known only from Pilbara Dist. (see map in Kitchener, 1985:216), but distribution of pebble mounds indicated range once extended through Gascoyne to Murchison Dist. with southern limit near Mileura, northern limit the Great Sandy Desert, and eastern limit the Gibson Desert (see discussion and map in Dunlop and Pound, 1981). COMMENTS: This species builds pebble mounds and is sympatric with P. hermannsburgensis (Kitchener, 1980), which does not construct pebble mounds (Dunlop and Pound, 1981), but phylogenetically most closely allied to P. johnsoni, another species that constructs pebble mounds (Kitchener, 1985).Published as part of Guy G. Musser & Michael D. Carleton, 1993, Order Rodentia - Family Muridae, pp. 501-755 in Mammal Species of the World (2 nd Edition), Washington and London :Smithsonian Institution Press on page 645, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.735309
