Repeated injection of morphine during conditioned place preference (CPP) leads to spatial craving due to high-level nitric oxide (NO) in the central nucleus of amygdala (CeA). Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) can produce oxygen-free radicals that lead to NO formation. We aimed to show the Ag-NPs protective effect on naloxone (NLX)-induced morphine withdrawal in the conditioned rats. Wistar rats (300-350g) were implanted with cannulae in the CeA. After recovery, they were randomly divided into experimental and saline groups. CPP was conducted by three-phase unbiased program. Morphine (0.5-7.5mg/kg) was injected subcutaneously (s.c.) once/per day during the conditioning phase. Naloxone (NLX) (0.05-0.4μg/rat) was given, intra-CeA, 10min before the CPP test. Ag-NPs (0.0001-0.01μg/rat) were administered alone or prior to the NLX effective dose (0.4μg/rat), intra-CeA. Conditioning score and withdrawal signs (wet dog shaking and scratching) were obtained and compared with saline group data. All rats' brains were collected in formalin 10% and after 48-72h stained with NADPH-diaphorase, the NO marker. All data were analyzed by one-way or two-way ANOVA. Morphine (2.5-7.5mg/kg, s.c.) induced a significant CPP vs. saline (1mL/kg, s.c.). The single Ag-NPs had no significant effect, whereas the NLX caused meaningful WDS and scratching. However, the NLX pre-treatment in combination with Ag-NPs eliminated these signs. Furthermore, the NO level increased in the CeA. The Ag-NPs may protect the morphine-conditioned rats against the NLX-induced withdrawal symptoms due to high-level NO in the CeA.
