英文摘要
Ethanol use is a common occurrence worldwide, and the onset of ethanol exposure is a major
contributing factor to ethanol abuse. Adolescence is a developmental period when ethanol use
is typically initiated, making it a highly vulnerable time to predispose future abuse and
alterations in neurobehavioral function. Moreover, adolescents consume more ethanol per
drinking session than adults, perhaps due to the greater sensitivity to the anxiolytic properties of
ethanol during this highly stressful and anxiety-provoking developmental stage. However, the
neurobiological mechanisms of acute ethanol in adolescents are poorly understood. The opioid
system is a major target of ethanol and kappa opioid receptors (KORs), particularly, have been
shown to play a major role in the neurophysiological effects of ethanol in the reward and anxiety
circuits. The basolateral amygdala (BLA), a key structure of the reward and anxiety circuits, is
involved in ethanol-seeking behaviors. Specifically, alterations in GABA transmission within the
BLA are associated with the anxiolytic properties of ethanol and ethanol-seeking. Importantly,
KOR activation modulates BLA excitability and anxiety-like behaviors in an age-dependent
manner, suggesting that KORs may significantly contribute to the increased sensitivity to the
anxiolytic properties of ethanol in adolescents, which may drive increased ethanol consumption
in adolescence. Thus, the overarching goal of this proposal is to test the interactions between
BLA KORs and ethanol consumption in adolescents. Importantly, preliminary findings indicate
that a KOR agonist potentiates GABAergic transmission within the BLA of adolescents, but not
adults, and this effect is similar to that of acute ethanol. This suggests that ethanol may hijack
the KOR system, thereby resulting in anxiolysis, which helps promote ethanol consumption in
adolescents. Two Specific Aims will (1) determine the functional interactions between BLA KOR
activation and acute ethanol in vitro and (2) examine the interaction of BLA KORs and acute
ethanol on anxiety-like behavior and ethanol consumption. These innovative studies will test
novel and unique hypotheses surrounding the developmental differences of ethanol and
describe neural mechanisms specific to adolescent ethanol exposure.
