Exposure of rats to a single session of foot shocks sensitizes behavioral responses to novel stimuli. There is evidence that metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors play a role in sensitization processes. In the present study, we investigated the role of mGlu(2/3) receptors in the long-term (14 days) increase in defensive withdrawal behavior after a single session of foot shocks. Exposure to foot shocks increased defensive withdrawal behavior. The mGlu(2/3) receptor agonist LY354740 ((1S,2S,5R,6S)-(+)-2-aminobicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-2,6-dicarboxylic acid, 0.1 mg/kg, i.p.) normalized the increased latency and the decreased time in the light of the preshocked rats. We conclude that activation of mGlu(2/3) receptors attenuates the foot shock-induced expression of behavioral sensitization.
