Prenatal ethanol exposure produces severe changes in brain, liver, and kidney through mechanisms involving growth factors. These molecules regulate survival, differentiation, maintenance, and connectivity of brain, liver, and kidney cells. Despite the abundant available data on the short and mid-lasting effects of ethanol intoxication, only few data show the long-lasting damage induced by early ethanol administration. The aim of this study was to investigate changes in nerve growth factor (NGF), brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in brain areas, liver, and kidney of 18-mo-old male mice exposed perinatally to ethanol at 11% vol or to red wine at the same ethanol concentration. The authors found that ethanol per se elevated NGF, BDNF, HGF, and VEGF measured by ELISA in brain limbic system areas. In the liver, early exposure to ethanol solution and red wine depleted BDNF and VEGF concentrations. In the kidney, red wine exposure only decreased VEGF. In conclusion, the present study shows that, in aged mice, early administration of ethanol solution induced long-lasting damage at growth factor levels in frontal cortex, hippocampus, and liver but not in kidney. Otherwise, in mice exposed to red wine, significant changes were observed in the liver and kidney but not in the hippocampus and frontal cortex. The brain differences in ethanol-induced toxicity when ethanol is administered alone or in red wine may be related to compounds with antioxidant properties present in the red wine.

Young and aged rats were treated chronically with ethanol or scopolamine. Muscarinic receptors were measured in cerebral cortex, hippocampus and striatum. Following scopolamine treatment muscarinic receptor density in cerebral cortex, hippocampus and striatum of young rats increased by 34, 57 and 27%, respectively; in brains of aged rats the increase was 41% in cerebral cortex, 43% in hippocampus and nil in striatum. Affinity of muscarinic receptors was not changed by scopolamine treatment. Following chronic ethanol administration there was a 48% increase in cortical muscarinic receptor density in young, but not aged rats. The density of muscarinic receptors in hippocampus and striatum of both young and aged rats was not affected by ethanol treatment. Affinity of receptors in hippocampus of aged, ethanol-treated rats was increased compared to age-matched controls. Adaptative responses of the muscarinic receptor/transducer system to neurotransmitter availability are present in both young and aged rats, both the ethanol-induced response is present only in young animals. This suggests differences in the mechanism of action of ethanol and receptor agonists and antagonists in modulating receptor plasticity.

Rats of two different ages (2 and 7 months) were treated with an ethanol-containing liquid diet for 24 days and change of the ceramide composition of gangliosides were studied in the brain synaptosomal, microsomal and myelin fractions. Greater differences were observed in the younger age, where ethanol treatment caused a significant increase of C20:1 LCB in GM1 ganglioside of synaptosomes and microsomes and in GD1a of myelin.

The effects of maternal ethanol consumption for 4 weeks before and throughout gestation on polyamine content and diamine oxidase activity of maternal, embryonal and fetal tissues are reported. At the 12th day of pregnancy, a decrease of putrescine in the liver of the mother and marked increases in putrescine, cadaverine and spermidine in embryos were observed. At day 18, putrescine and cadaverine diminished in maternal liver and placenta, and no changes in amine content in fetal liver and brain were found. At day 12, diamine oxidase activity increased in maternal liver and placenta, whereas it greatly diminished in embryos. At day 18, enzyme activity decreased in maternal liver, placenta, fetal liver and brain. These results indicate that chronic ethanol ingestion induces alterations in polyamine concentrations and metabolism in growing and developing tissues during pregnancy that might contribute to the adverse effect of ethanol on conceptual development.

Activation of A1 adenosine receptors (ARs) has been associated with anxiolytic-like effects in different behavioral tests, but development of A1AR agonists for therapeutic use has been hampered, most likely due to the presence of side effects. With the aim to identify a safer approach for the treatment of anxiety, we investigated, in mice, the anxiolytic-like properties of a novel A1AR positive allosteric modulator, TRR469. Acute administration of TRR469 (0.3-3 mg/kg) resulted in robust anxiolytic-like effects in the elevated plus maze, the dark/light box, the open field and the marble burying tests. The magnitude of the anxiolytic action of TRR469 was comparable to that obtained with benzodiazepine diazepam (1 mg/kg). The use of the A1AR antagonist DPCPX (3 mg/kg) suggested that the effects of TRR469 were mediated by this receptor subtype. In contrast to diazepam, the novel positive allosteric modulator did not potentiate the sedative effect of ethanol (3.5 g/kg) evaluated by the loss of righting reflex. While diazepam produced motor coordination impairment in the rotarod test, this effect being enhanced by the presence of ethanol (1.5 g/kg), TRR469 did not elicit locomotor disturbances either when administered alone or in the presence of ethanol. In vitro, TRR469 was able to increase the number of A1AR recognizable by the agonist radioligand [3H]-CCPA in mouse brain regions involved in emotional processes. TRR469 markedly increased the affinity of the agonist CCPA, suggesting the capability, in vivo, to increase the affinity of endogenous adenosine. Taken together, these findings indicate that the positive allosteric modulation of A1AR may represent a promising approach for the treatment of anxiety-related disorders.

AbstractThe prelimbic (PL) and infralimbic (IL) medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) are thought to play opposing roles in drug‐seeking behaviour. Specifically, the PL promotes drug‐seeking whereas the IL is necessary for the inhibition of drug‐seeking during extinction. We studied the roles of the PL, IL and dorsal peduncular PFC (DP) in the expression of context‐induced reinstatement, reacquisition and extinction of alcoholic beer‐seeking. In context‐induced reinstatement (renewal), animals were trained to nosepoke for alcoholic beer (context A), extinguished (context B) and then tested in context A and B. In reacquisition, animals received the same instrumental training and extinction without any contextual manipulation. On test, alcoholic beer was again available and responding was compared with naive controls. Just prior to the test, rats received bilateral infusion of baclofen/muscimol into the PL, IL or DP. Reversible inactivation of the PL attenuated ABA renewal but augmented reacquisition. Reversible inactivation of IL had no effect on the reinstatement or reacquisition of alcoholic beer‐seeking and had no effect on extinction expression (ABB and AAA). IL inactivation did, however, increase the latencies with which animals responded on test but only when animals were tested in the extinction context. DP inactivation had no effect on reinstatement or reacquisition. These studies are inconsistent with the view that PL and IL exert opposing effects on drug‐seeking. Rather, they support the view that PL is important for retrieval of drug‐seeking contingency information and that the use of contextual information is enhanced with IL manipulation.

In four experiments we studied the impact of retrieval-extinction training on the extinction and reinstatement of alcoholic beer seeking. Experiment 1 showed that preceding daily extinction sessions with a brief (10 min) extinction session (retrieval-extinction) attenuated the context-induced reinstatement of alcoholic beer seeking, thereby replicating and extending the findings of Xue et al. (2012). Experiment 2 then showed that the retrieval-extinction manipulation could attenuate the reinstatement produced by reversible inactivation of the nucleus accumbens shell prior to test. Experiment 3 showed that a modified extinction protocol that involved a reversed retrieval (i.e., extinction then retrieval) was also able to attenuate context-induced reinstatement. Finally, experiment 4 showed that the extinction-retrieval manipulation facilitated the reacquisition of alcoholic beer seeking as evidenced by increased breakpoints and responses during tests under a progressive ratio schedule. Taken together, these findings show that retrieval-extinction training protocols can alter the propensity to reinstate extinguished drug seeking but that these alterations are not always protective. These findings are inconsistent with accounts of the retrieval-extinction manipulation in terms of memory reconsolidation and deepened extinction. Instead, they are consistent with the notion that this manipulation increases the sensitivity of animals to the contingencies in effect during testing.

Plasma AVP levels, physiological and biochemical variables were measured during tests. Physiological and biochemical variables were similar in all tests. During the control test, exercise significantly increased plasma AVP levels, with a peak value five times higher than baseline. The AVP response to exercise was similar in the presence of naloxone, whereas it was abolished by ethanol. When ethanol tests were repeated in the presence of naloxone, at both lower and higher dose, ethanol inhibition on AVP secretion was only partial, with mean peak responses 2.5 times higher than basal values. Results indicate an ethanol involvement in regulation of the AVP response to physical exercise. Furthermore, naloxone-sensitive endogenous opioids appear to play a role in the mechanism underlying ethanol inhibitory action, but not in mediation of the AVP response to physical exercise.

Naltrindole, a specific delta-opioid antagonist, infused by reverse dialysis in the nucleus accumbens of freely moving rats completely prevented the increase in extracellular dopamine concentrations elicited in the nucleus accumbens by ethanol (1.0 g/kg i.p.) as well as by the delta-opioid receptor agonist [D-Ala2]deltorphin II (50 microM), also perfused by reverse dialysis, but not by cocaine (15 mg/kg s.c.). The results provide in vivo evidence for a critical role of delta-opioid receptors in the dopamine-releasing properties of ethanol in vivo.
