This dissertation was aimed to elucidate the influence of brain 5-HT depletion during the neonatal period on the metabolic programming and the behavioral expression of adulthood rats. Brain 5-HT depletion was raised with the subcutaneous (s.c) administration of 100 mg. Kg-1 para-chlorophenylalanine (pCPA), a competitive inhibitor of the tryptophan hydroxylase enzyme, from the eighth at sixteenth post-natal days. In order to investigate the influence of pCPA on the subject metabolic programming, during and after treatment, the milk intake and body weight gain from the neonatal period to adulthood were evaluated. Furthermore, evaluating indirectly this influence on the energetic metabolism, the repercussions on the glycemic homeostasis through of the glycemia baseline measurements and under fasting in the adult rat were investigated. Around the ingestive behavior, baseline conditions paradigm and under fasting were made. In these experimental trials, water intake, ration, 2% sucrose and 0.3M NaCl were evaluated. Also, the 0.3 M NaCl intake after sodium depletion (furosemide 20mg. Kg-1, s.c) and water intake after hypertonic stimulus (1.0 M NaCl, s.c) were measured. The behavioral expression was evaluated through models involved with emotional-behavioral signals. In this analysis, the rat s anxiety status was investigated through of open field test, elevated plus-maze (EPM), social interaction and forced swimming. The results showed that treatment with pCPA reduces milk intake (P˂0.001) and therefore the body weight gain in the neonatal period (P˂0.001), claiming to be smaller until adulthood (P˂0.01). The glycemic homeostasis was also affected reflected in lower pCPA-male (P˂0.01) and pCPA-female (P˂0.001) levels after 24 hours of fasting. About to baseline intake, a higher pCPA-female sodium appetite (P˂0.05), related to a greater demand for 2% sucrose solution in both females (P˂0,001) were observed. Under fasting, a lower male-pCPA cumulative ration intake at 60 min (P˂0.05) and a higher female pCPA at 60 (P˂0.05) and 120 min (P˂0.01) were observed. Furthermore, after water deprivation, a higher pCPA-female cumulative water intake at 120 min (P˂0.05) compared with pCPA-male was rated. Was also observed a greater pCPA-male water intake at 120 and 180 min (P˂0.001) after hypertonic stimulus, however, it was not observed significant difference in the natriorexigenic responses in sodium depleted rats. In addition, pCPA male showed a evident anxiolytic activity in EPM test expressed by the higher time spent in the open arm (O.A) (P˂0.05), higher head-dipping in the O.A episodes (P˂0.001), less S.A.P. (P˂0.001) and grooming episodes (P˂0.01). Therefore, these results showed that 5-HT depletion during the neonatal period programme the energetic metabolic homeostasis and the behavioral expression of adulthood rats. === A deple??o cerebral de serotonina (5-HT) durante o per?odo neonatal acarreta uma altera??o pl?stica na citoarquitetura do sistema seroton?rgico influenciando diretamente o desenvolvimento ontog?nico de diversos sistemas cerebrais. Nesta disserta??o objetivou-se elucidar a influ?ncia da deple??o cerebral de 5-HT durante o per?odo neonatal sobre a programa??o metab?lica energ?tica e express?o comportamental de ratos adultos. A deple??o cerebral de 5-HT foi evocada com a administra??o subcut?nea (s.c) de 100 mg. Kg-1, de para-clorofenilalanina (pCPA), um inibidor competitivo da enzima triptofano hidroxilase, do oitavo ao d?cimo sexto dias p?s-natais. A fim de investigar a influ?ncia da pCPA, durante e ap?s o tratamento, sobre a programa??o metab?lica do indiv?duo, foram avaliadas a ingest?o de leite e o ganho de peso corporal do per?odo neonatal ? vida adulta. Ademais, avaliando indiretamente esta influ?ncia sobre o metabolismo energ?tico, foram investigadas as repercuss?es sobre a homeostase glic?mica atrav?s da mensura??o basal e sob jejum da glicemia do rato adulto. Em rela??o ao comportamento ingestivo foram realizados protocolos em condi??es basais e sob jejum. Nestes ensaios experimentais foram avaliadas as ingest?es de ?gua, ra??o, sacarose 2% e NaCl 0,3 M. Outrossim, foram mensuradas as ingest?es de NaCl 0,3 M ap?s deple??o de s?dio (furosemida 20mg. Kg-1, s.c) e de ?gua ap?s est?mulo hipert?nico (NaCl 1,0 M, s.c). A express?o comportamental foi avaliada atrav?s de modelos envolvidos com aspectos afetivo-comportamentais. Nesta an?lise, foi investigado o status de ansiedade dos ratos atrav?s dos testes de campo aberto, labirinto em cruz elevado (LCE), intera??o social e nata??o for?ada. Os resultados demonstraram que o tratamento com pCPA diminui a ingest?o de leite (P˂0,001) e conseq?entemente o ganho de peso corporal no per?odo neonatal (P˂0,001), sustentando-se menor at? a vida adulta (P˂0,01). A homeostase glic?mica tamb?m foi afetada refletida nos menores n?veis glic?micos em machos-pCPA (P˂0,01) e f?meas pCPA (P˂0,001) ap?s jejum alimentar de 24 horas. Em rela??o ?s ingest?es basais, foi observado um maior apetite por s?dio em f?meas-pCPA (P˂0,05), al?m de uma maior procura pela solu??o de sacarose 2% em ambas as f?meas (P˂0,001). Sob jejum alimentar, foi observada uma menor ingest?o cumulativa de ra??o em machos-pCPA aos 120 min (P˂0,05) e maior ingest?o em f?meas-pCPA aos 60 (P˂0,05) e 120 min (P˂0,01). Ademais, ap?s jejum h?drico, foi notada uma maior ingest?o cumulativa de ?gua em f?meas-pCPA aos 120 min (P˂0,05) em rela??o aos machos-pCPA. Observou-se ainda uma maior ingest?o de ?gua nos machos-pCPA aos 120 e 180 min (P˂0,001) ap?s est?mulo hipert?nico, por?m, n?o foi observada diferen?a significativa na resposta natriorexig?nica em ratos s?dio-depletados. Al?m disso, foi observada uma evidente atividade ansiol?tica no LCE expressa pelo maior tempo gasto no bra?o aberto (B.A) (P˂0,05), maior n?mero de epis?dios de head-dipping no B.A (P˂0,001), menos epis?dios de S.AP. (P˂0,001) e grooming (P˂0,01). Em resumo, estes resultados demonstram que a deple??o de 5-HT durante o per?odo neonatal programa a homeostase metab?lica energ?tica e a express?o comportamental de ratos adultos.
