Moderate adolescent chronic intermittent ethanol exposure sex-dependently disrupts synaptic transmission and kappa opioid receptor function in the basolateral amygdala of adult rats

Abstract: Adolescent alcohol exposure is associated with many negative outcomes that persist into adulthood, including altered affective and reward-related behaviors. However, the long-term neurological disruptions underlying these behavioral states are not fully understood. The basolateral amygdala (BLA) plays a critical role in many of these behaviors, and shifts in the excitatory/inhibitory balance in this area are capable of directly modulating their expression.While changes to BLA physiology have been demonstrated … Show more

“…Our findings of sex differences in CIE effects on PNCs are in agreement with previously identified sex differences in CIE vapor exposure, such as females being relatively resilient to higher blood EtOH concentrations (BECs) (Glover et al, 2021), which may be due to accelerated clearance kinetics (Marsland et al, 2021). The fact that female PNCs maintained synaptic flexibility despite consistently higher BECs (due to lower body weights; Figure S1) is consistent with previous data showing that female rats following CIE vapor appear resistant to both CIE‐induced changes to biochemical physiology (Henricks et al, 2017; Kirson et al, 2021; Przybysz et al, 2021) and behavioral escalation of voluntary intake (Morales et al, 2015). Certain sex differences, such as prevention of EtOH‐induced changes in endocannabinoid signaling, appear to be mediated through ovarian hormones (Henricks et al, 2017), which may have contributed to the variability in female data displayed in Figure 2 and Figure S3.…”
