Dysregulation of histone deacetylases (HDAC) has been proposed as a potential contributor to aberrant transcriptional profiles that can lead to changes in cognitive functions. It is known that METH negatively impacts the prefrontal cortex (PFC) leading to cognitive decline and addiction whereas modafinil enhances cognition and has a low abuse liability. We investigated if modafinil (90 mg/kg) and methamphetmine (METH) (1 mg/kg) may differentially influence the acetylation status of histones 3 and 4 (H3ac and H4ac) at proximal promoters of class I, II, III, and IV HDACs. We found that METH produced broader acetylation effects in comparison with modafinil in the medial PFC. For single dose, METH affected H4ac by increasing its acetylation at ...
