Ethanol and nicotine are often co-abused. However, their combined effects on fetal neural development, particularly on fetal neural stem cells (NSCs), which generate most neurons of the adult brain during the second trimester of pregnancy, are poorly understood. We previously showed that ethanol influenced NSC maturation in part, by suppressing expression of specific microRNAs (miRNAs). Here, we tested in fetal NSCs, the extent to which ethanol and nicotine co-regulated known ethanol-sensitive (miR-9, miR-21, miR-153 and miR-335), a nicotine-sensitive miRNA (miR-140-3p), and mRNAs for nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subunits. Additionally, we tested the extent to which these effects were nAChR dependent. Gestational day 12.5 mouse fetal murine cerebral cortical-derived neurosphere cultures were exposed to ethanol, nicotine and mecamylamine, a noncompetitive nAChR antagonist, individually or in combination, for short (24 hour) and long (five day) periods, to mimic exposure during the in vivo period of neurogenesis. Levels of miRNAs, miRNA-regulated transcripts and nAChR subunit mRNAs were assessed by qRT-PCR. Ethanol suppressed expression of known ethanol-sensitive miRNAs and miR-140-3p, while nicotine at concentrations attained by cigarette smokers, induced a dose-related increase in these miRNAs. Nicotine’s effect was blocked by ethanol and by mecamylamine. Finally, ethanol decreased expression of nAChR subunit mRNAs and, like mecamylamine, prevented the nicotine associated increase in α4 and β2 nAChR transcripts. Ethanol and nicotine exert mutually antagonistic, nAChR-mediated effects on teratogen-sensitive miRNAs in fetal NSCs. These data suggest that concurrent exposure to ethanol and nicotine disrupts miRNA regulatory networks that are important for NSC maturation.
