PROJECT SUMMARY
Alcohol use disorders (AUDs) manifest from a convergence of characteristics of the individual, the
environment, and the alcohol itself. The affective disturbances associated with alcohol withdrawal are
examples of this convergence and represent a critical barrier to successful treatment. Reduction of these
affective disturbances has been suggested to represent an important conceptual approach to reduce negative
reinforcement-based alcohol intake in dependent individuals. However, treatment of these affective
disturbances is complicated by data indicating reduced efficacy of antidepressants such as selective-serotonin
reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) in patients with AUDs, and that these traditional treatments can actually increase
alcohol intake in some people;; thus, alternate non-monoamine-based treatment approaches for affective
symptoms associated with AUDs are critically needed. Here we will test the novel hypothesis that
pharmacological augmentation of endogenous cannabinoid signaling could represent an effective treatment for
negative affective states associated with alcohol withdrawal including anxiety and depression, and could
thereby facilitate abstinence in patients with AUDs. We will test the overall hypothesis that 2-
arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG)-mediated endocannabinoid signaling reduces anxiety and depressive-like
behaviors associated with acute and protracted alcohol withdrawal in a mouse model of voluntary alcohol
consumption. To interrogate the underlying mechanism of this effect, we will test the hypothesis that insula
cortical-extended amygdala circuits are hyperactive during alcohol withdrawal and that over activation of this
circuit is causally linked to the affective phenotypes observed during alcohol withdrawal. Finally, we will test the
hypothesis that 2-AG-mediated inhibition of insula-extended amygdala circuit activity represents a key
mechanism by which endocannabinoid signaling reduces alcohol withdrawal-induced anxiety and depressive-
like behaviors. These data could provide new insight into the neural circuit mechanisms responsible for
generating negative affective states associated with alcohol withdrawal, and reveal novel neuromodulatory
mechanisms capable of counteracting these processes. If successful, these studies could support
advancement of 2-AG-based pharmacological treatments for AUDs and co-morbid affective disorders.
