Research Abstract |
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been shown to have a therapeutic effect on affective disorder and anxiety disorders. However, some reports have linked rTMS to a significant increase in anxiety in normal volunteers. This study investigated the effect of rTMS on anxiety and the use of acute and chronic paroxetine treatment on this animal model of anxiety. In normal rats, rTMS for 10 days induced anxiety, as shown by elevated plus maze, black and white box, and conditioned fear tests. This anxiety was suppressed by chronic paroxetine, acute diazepam, alprazolam and buspirone but not acute paroxetine treatment. These results suggest that rate receiving chronic rTMS treatment can be used as a model of anxiety and that the anxiety induced by rTMS might involve the serotonergic and GABA system.
