This study investigates the effect of ethanol and its pre-exposure on cell migration. Here, fibroblast cells were first pre-treated with ethanol, and their migratory behavior was tested in both chemotaxis and chemokinesis setup. 1% ethanol was taken as a potential chemotactic agent. The study reveals that in presence of ethanol gradient cells display migration towards ethanol, and pre-exposure further augments this migratory behavior by altering their chemotactic responsiveness. In uniform ethanol concentration, cells first undergo three staged adaptations to the new environment: shrinking, blebbing, and recovery, where cells use bleb-driven cell protection machinery to adapt. Thus, migration is initially stalled. But once the cells resume locomotion, no significant difference in migratory parameters is observed. Overall, this study establishes ethanol as a chemoattractant for fibroblasts, with cells showing enhanced alcohol-seeking behavior upon pre-exposure. Such behavior is reminiscent of seeking and tolerance exhibited by alcohol-dependent addictive behavior in higher organisms including humans.
