The decrease in relapse risk was likely due to a decrease in attention to the stimuli over the course of repeated engagement in the alternative behavior. However, this previous procedure was time consuming and did not mirror the procedure we used to observe changes in relapse risk. This study aimed at replicating the previous relationship between the duration of engaging in an alternative behavior and shift in stimulus generalization for drinking using a procedure that allows longitudinal analysis over time and is consistent with other procedures we have developed. Rats were trained to respond for ethanol in the presence of one stimulus (16 kHz tone; food Fixed Ratio (FR)150 and ethanol FR5), and for food in the under another stimulus (8 kHz tone; food and ethanol FR5). Then, recovery-like sessions with food predominant responding occurred in the presence of only the low-cost food stimulus. During these sessions, rats were exposed to non-reinforced graded stimuli alternation from 8 to 16 kHz alternating with the reinforced low-cost food stimulus. The number of responses on each (food and ethanol) lever before completing 5 responses on either lever was the main measure. Consistent with the earlier procedure, the current procedure showed that graded variation of tone from 8 to 16 kHz produced a graded increase in responding for ethanol compared to responding for food. In addition, longer periods of engaging in recovery-like responding shift the generalization function downwards. This procedure confirms the earlier pattern of stimulus generalization over longer periods of behavior consistent with recovery. This strengthens our hypothesis that shifts in attention to alcohol-related stimuli are important to the development of relapse resistance during recovery.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":7712,"journal":{"name":"Alcohol","volume":"121 ","pages":"Pages 161-167"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142373689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current studies sought to develop and assess a novel alcohol + nicotine co-access self-administration (SA) model in adult male and female Long-Evans rats. Further, both drugs are implicated in neuroimmune function, albeit in largely opposing ways. Chronic alcohol use increases neuroinflammation via toll-like receptors (TLRs) which in turn increases alcohol intake. By contrast, nicotine produces anti-inflammatory effects, in part, through the monomeric alpha7 receptor (ChRNa7). Following long-term co-access (6 months), rats reliably administered both drugs during daily sessions, however males generally responded for more alcohol and females for nicotine. This was reflected in plasma analysis with translationally relevant intake levels of both alcohol and nicotine, making it invaluable in studying the effects of co-use on behavior and CNS function. Moreover, male rats show sensitivity to alterations in alcohol concentration whereas females show sensitivity to alterations in nicotine concentration. Rats trained on this procedure also developed an anxiogenic phenotype. Finally, we assessed alterations in neuroimmune-related gene expression in the medial prefrontal cortex – prelimbic, (mPFC-PL), nucleus accumbens core (AcbC), and ventral tegmental area (VTA). In the AcbC, where α7 expression was increased and β2 was decreased, markers of pro-inflammatory activity were decreased, despite increases in TLR gene expression suggesting that co-use with nicotine modulates inflammatory state downstream from the receptor level. By contrast, in mPFC-PL where α7 was not increased, both TLRs and downstream proinflammatory markers were increased. Taken together, these findings support that there are brain regional and sex differences with co-use of alcohol + nicotine SA and suggest that targeting nicotinic α7 may represent a novel strategy for treating alcohol + nicotine co-dependence.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7712,"journal":{"name":"Alcohol","volume":"121 ","pages":"Pages 115-131"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0741832924001150/pdfft?md5=e1355ae20beb527810f3ef20e0cc2fef&pid=1-s2.0-S0741832924001150-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142094288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Investigations of brain structure and function are therefore critical for disentangling factors that lead to sex differences in AUD abstinence. This review will discuss current human neuroimaging data on sex differences in alcohol abstinence, focusing on structural and functional brain measures. Current structural imaging literature reveals that abstinent men have smaller gray and white matter volume and weaker structural connectivity compared to control men. Interestingly, abstinent women do not show differences in brain structure when compared to controls; instead, abstinent women show a relation between alcohol use and decreased measures of brain structure. Current functional brain studies reveal that abstinent men exhibit greater brain activation and stronger task-based functional connectivity to aversive stimuli than control men, while abstinent women exhibit lesser brain activation and weaker task-based functional connectivity than control women. Together, the current literature suggests that sex differences persist well into alcohol abstinence and impact brain structure and function differently.

Though AUD impacts people of all backgrounds and demographics, increasing evidence has suggested robust sex differences in alcohol drinking patterns and AUD-induced negative emotionality or hyperkatifeia. Rates of problematic drinking have significantly risen among women, and women face more severe negative emotional consequences in abstinence such as increased risk of comorbidity with an anxiety or mood disorder and more severe symptoms of depression. As such, a bevy of preclinical literature using contingent methods of alcohol (ethanol) consumption has amassed in recent years to better understand sex as a biological variable in alcohol drinking and abstinence-induced negative emotionality. Mice are widely used to model alcohol drinking, as they are conducive to genetic manipulation strategies, and many strains will voluntarily consume alcohol. Sex-specific results from these mouse studies, however, have been inconsistent. Therefore, this review aims to summarize the current knowledge on sex differences in AUD-related contingent ethanol drinking and abstinence-induced negative emotionality in mice. Various contingent mouse drinking models and negative emotional-based behavioral paradigms are introduced and subsequently discussed in the context of sex differences to show increasing indications of sex specificity in mouse preclinical studies of AUD.

From these observations we hypothesized that alcohol induces facilitated working memory performance via down-regulation of these channels’ activity specifically within interneurons. To test this hypothesis, we employed a Pol-II compatible shRNA expression system to elicit targeted knockdown of HCN channel activity in these cells, and measured performance on a delayed Non-Match-to-Sample (NMS) T-maze test to gauge effects on working memory performance. A significant baseline enhancement of working memory performance with HCN channel knockdown was observed, indicative of a critical role for interneuron-expressed HCNs in maintaining optimal cortical network activity during cognitively-demanding tasks. Consistent with previous observations, ethanol exposure resulted in enhanced NMS T-maze performance, however elevated working memory performance was observed in both <em>scram-</em> and <em>hcn-</em>shRNA infected groups after alcohol administration. We therefore conclude that interneuron-expressed HCN channels, despite representing a minor population of total cortical HCN expression, contribute substantially to maintaining working memory processes. Downregulated HCN channel activity, though, does not alone appear sufficient to manifest alcohol-induced enhancement of working memory performance observed in female rats during acute withdrawal.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7712,"journal":{"name":"Alcohol","volume":"121 ","pages":"Pages 59-67"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141735969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
