Abstract

Cuprizone is a copper-chelating agent and able to induce oligodendrocyte loss and demyelination in C57BL/6 mouse brain. Recent studies have used the cuprizone-fed mouse as an animal model of schizophrenia to examine putative roles of altered oligodendrocytes in this mental disorder. The present study reported the effects of cuprizone on the brain metabolites and oxidative parameters with the aim of providing neurochemical evidence for the application of the cuprizone mouse as an animal model of schizophrenia. In addition, we examined effects of quetiapine on the cuprizone-induced changes in brain metabolites and oxidative parameters; this atypical antipsychotic was shown to ameliorate the cuprizone-induced demyelination and behavioral changes in previous studies. C57BL/6 mice were fed a standard rodent chow without or with cuprizone (0.2% w/w) for four weeks during which period they were given sterilized saline or quetiapine in saline. The results of the proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) showed that cuprizone-feeding decreased (1)H-MRS signals of N-acetyl-l-aspartate (NAA), total NAA (NAA + NAAG), and choline-containing compounds (phosphorylcholine and glycerophosphorylcholine), suggestive of mitochondrial dysfunc...Continue Reading
