项目摘要

Alcohol abuse disorders (AUD) are a major health hazard that affects millions of people every year in the United States. Repeat alcohol exposure can lead to tolerance, increased preference and consumption. Such behavioral changes, and the accompanying neuronal plasticity, underlie addiction, yet many molecular mechanisms governing these changes remain to be elucidated. Signaling through the insulin receptor (InR) in neurons is known to modify plasticity, but its effects on alcohol-induced behavioral responses are not known. Our goal is to understand the cellular, neural, and circuit mechanisms of Arf6-dependent nervous system InR signaling in alcohol-induced plasticity. This is based on our published data that Arf6 mediates InR signaling in vivo and in cell culture. First, we will determine the mechanisms of Arf6-mediated InR signaling and endocytosis. We will systematically, and comprehensively test the role of two gene families known to directly regulate the function of Arf6. Second, we will determine neural circuits that specifically affect ethanol-induced tolerance and consumption preference, as well as the naïve aversive reactions to alcohol. We will test the role of Arf6 regulators in these circuits in alcohol-induced behavioral responses. Third, we will determine in vivo mechanisms how signaling from the InR pathway can affect distinct alcohol-induced behavioral changes: tolerance, and consumption preference. The genes we propose to investigate are all conserved from Drosophila to humans, and the proposed research will advance our molecular understanding of the mechanisms regulating alcohol-induced behavioral changes. This in turn, will result in the identification of new risk factors and therapeutic targets for the treatment of alcohol abuse disorders.

酒精滥用障碍（AUD）是一种主要的健康危害，每年影响数百万人，美国的重复饮酒会导致耐受性，增加偏好和消费。等行为变化和伴随的神经元可塑性是成瘾的基础，但许多分子控制这些变化的机制仍有待阐明。通过胰岛素受体（InR）的信号传导已知神经元可改变可塑性，但其对酒精诱导的行为反应的影响尚不清楚。我们的目标是了解Arf 6依赖性神经系统INR的细胞、神经和回路机制。酒精诱导的可塑性信号。这是基于我们发表的数据，Arf6介导InR信号传导，体内和细胞培养中。首先，我们将确定Arf6介导的InR信号传导的机制，内吞作用我们将系统地，全面地测试两个已知的基因家族的作用，调节Arf 6的功能。其次，我们将确定专门影响乙醇诱导的神经回路。耐受性和消费偏好，以及对酒精的天真厌恶反应。我们将测试角色在酒精诱导的行为反应中，Arf6调节剂在这些回路中的作用。第三，我们将在体内确定 InR通路的信号传导如何影响不同的酒精诱导的行为变化的机制：消费偏好和消费偏好。我们打算研究的基因都是保守的果蝇到人类，拟议的研究将推进我们对人类基因组的分子理解。调节酒精诱导的行为变化的机制。这反过来又会导致新的治疗酒精滥用障碍的危险因素和治疗目标。
