Single Cell Scale Neuronal and Glial Gene Expression and Putative Cell Phenotypes and Networks in the Nucleus Tractus Solitarius in an Alcohol Withdrawal Time Series

Abstract: Alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS) is characterized by neuronal hyperexcitability, autonomic dysregulation, and severe negative emotion. The nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) likely plays a prominent role in the neurological processes underlying these symptoms as it is the main viscerosensory nucleus in the brain. The NTS receives visceral interoceptive inputs, influences autonomic outputs, and has strong connections to the limbic system and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis to maintain homeostasis. Our prior … Show more

“…An important consideration for our electrophysiology work is that future studies should expand to other brain regions and networks that are key to both alcohol consumption and GLP-1 signaling. For example, the NTS is a key region where some GLP-1 neurons show hyperexcitability after alcohol withdrawal ( 118 ). Unlike our behavioral experiments that included both sexes, the electrophysiology experiments only included males, and future work should expand to females.…”
