3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, “Ecstasy”) is a potent psychedelic drug inducing euphoria and hyper-sociability in humans, as well as hyperactivity and anxiety in rodents. Adult zebrafish (Danio rerio) have become a widely used species in neurobehavioral research. Here, we explore the effects of a wide range (0.25–120 mg/L) of acute MDMA doses on zebrafish behavior in the novel tank test. While MDMA was inactive at lower doses (0.25–10 mg/L), higher doses reduced bottom swimming and immobility (40–120 mg/L) and impaired intra-session habituation (10–120 mg/L). MDMA also elevated brain c-fos expression, collectively confirming the utility of zebrafish models for screening of hallucinogenic compounds.

In the index hospitalization, CR in STEMI patients is associated with significant risk reduction in cardiac death and revascularization and a non-significant reduced trend of CI-AKI, despite increased use of contrast when compared with IRA.
