Time-Course Analysis of Brain Regional Expression Network Responses to Chronic Intermittent Ethanol and Withdrawal: Implications for Mechanisms Underlying Excessive Ethanol Consumption
Long lasting abusive consumption, dependence, and withdrawal are characteristic features of alcohol use disorders (AUD). Mechanistically, persistent changes in gene expression are hypothesized to contribute to brain adaptations leading to ethanol toxicity and AUD. We employed repeated chronic intermittent ethanol (CIE) exposure by vapor chamber as a mouse model to simulate the cycles of ethanol...
متن کاملChronic ethanol consumption regulates cannabinoid CB1 receptor gene expression in selected regions of rat brain.
AIMS The aim of this study was to examine the effects of chronic ethanol consumption in cannabinoid CB(1) receptor gene expression in Wistar rats. METHODS Rats were exposed to a bottle containing a solution of ethanol (10% v/v) and saccharin (0.25% w/v) for 52 days. At the end of this period, rats were killed by decapitation and cannabinoid CB(1) receptor gene expression was measured by in si...
متن کاملWhole Brain and Brain Regional Coexpression Network Interactions Associated with Predisposition to Alcohol Consumption
To identify brain transcriptional networks that may predispose an animal to consume alcohol, we used weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA). Candidate coexpression modules are those with an eigengene expression level that correlates significantly with the level of alcohol consumption across a panel of BXD recombinant inbred mouse strains, and that share a genomic region that regula...
متن کاملChronic Ethanol Consumption Profoundly Alters Regional Brain Ceramide and Sphingomyelin Content in Rodents
Ceramides (CER) are involved in alcohol-induced neuroinflammation. In a mouse model of chronic alcohol exposure, 16 CER and 18 sphingomyelin (SM) concentrations from whole brain lipid extracts were measured using electrospray mass spectrometry. All 18 CER concentrations in alcohol exposed adults increased significantly (range: 25-607%); in juveniles, 6 CER decreased (range: -9 to -37%). In cont...
متن کاملChronic Ethanol Exposure Produces Time- and Brain Region-Dependent Changes in Gene Coexpression Networks
Repeated ethanol exposure and withdrawal in mice increases voluntary drinking and represents an animal model of physical dependence. We examined time- and brain region-dependent changes in gene coexpression networks in amygdala (AMY), nucleus accumbens (NAC), prefrontal cortex (PFC), and liver after four weekly cycles of chronic intermittent ethanol (CIE) vapor exposure in C57BL/6J mice. Microa...
