Prevent Child Mother Love Drug Use
by A new study recommends
that mothers more often show affection to the baby and their baby. Compassion
and caring mother to give the immune system early in a child’s life that will help prevent children from drug
addiction as an adult.
Researchers from Duke University and the University of Adelaide in Australia, found attention in early childhood can alter the immune response of brain child. In studies in mice, they found that rats get the most touches of their mothers had higher levels of a molecule called Interleukin-10.
This means they are better able to resist the temptation of drugs and illicit drugs later in life.
During the study researchers used a technique called ‘paradigm treatment’. Children are still young rats removed from their parent cages for 15 minutes and then returned. “When the children return, the parent inspect, clean and care for their children,” said Professor Bilbo told the Daily Mail.
Whereas in the control group, children are not rats separated from their mothers. However, naturally there is some stem more attention than others.
Later time through two space preference test, rats children will receive a dose of morphine when it enters a room and salt on the other side. Over the next four weeks, the mice returned to the two sides three times a week for five minutes. “Although initially it showed prefer morphine space, over time their desire extinguished,” said Professor Bilbo.
Eight weeks after contact with morphine, rats were given each child a small dose of morphine and then returned to the room. Control mice were more like to spend time in the mice given morphine while love does not have a clear preference.
Molecular Response
This study first demonstrated the morphine molecule causes a response in certain cells in the center of the circuit arrangement are identified as drug addiction. IL-10 against the inflammation and the desire to use drugs.
And, the brain of mice that had a touch of the mother most often have a more active genes that produce IL-10 four times more than control mice.
Scientists chose rats because these animals have the same vulnerability as human beings against drug addiction. The brain and the genes that regulate the same addiction. The team will look at long-term effects of stress on the immune response of the brain stem of children.
