Exposure to alcohol during pregnancy produces Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders, which in its most severe form is characterized by physical dysmorphology and neurobehavioral alterations. Moderate prenatal alcohol exposure (mPAE) is known to produce deficits in discrimination of spatial locations in adulthood. However, the impact of mPAE on higher-order sensory representations, such as discrimination of perceptually similar stimuli, is currently unknown. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that mPAE would disrupt performance on hippocampal-sensitive tasks that require discrimination between perceptually similar objects or discrimination between spatial locations in a radial arm maze. Here we report that male mPAE rats exhibited intact performance on three types of object discrimination tasks: one in which rats discriminated between distinct toy objects, a second in which discrimination was made between distinct and similar LEGO objects, and a mnemonic similarity task in which rats discriminated between randomly presented LEGO objects that varied in similarity with a learned object. Although adult male mPAE rats performed similarly to control rats on all three object discrimination tasks, they showed deficits when tested in a radial arm maze spatial discrimination task. Specifically, male mPAE rats expressed a significantly higher number of working memory errors (returns to previously visited arms) and were more likely to use non-spatial strategies during training. Together, the findings of the present study support the conclusion that mPAE produces specific deficits in the online processing of spatial information and executing spatial navigation strategies, but spares the ability to discriminate between perceptually similar stimuli.
