Description
Lasting behavioral and physiological changes such as abusive consumption, dependence, and withdrawal are characteristic features of alcohol use disorders (AUD). Mechanistically, persistent changes in gene expression are hypothesized to contribute to these brain adaptations leading to ethanol toxicity and abuse. Here we employed repeated chronic intermittent ethanol (CIE) exposure by vapor chamber as a mouse model to simulate the cycles of ethanol exposure and withdrawal commonly seen with AUD. This model has previously been shown to induce progressive ethanol consumption in rodents. Brain regional expression networks contributing to CIE-induced behavioral changes were identified by microarray analysis across five brain regions in the mesolimbic dopamine system and extended amygdala with tissue harvested from 0-120 hours following the last cycle of CIE. Weighted Gene Correlated Network Analysis (WGCNA) was used to identify gene networks over-represented for CIE-induced temporal expression changes across brain regions. Differential gene expression analysis of CIE vs. air-treated controls showed that long-lasting gene regulation occurred 5-days after the final cycle of ethanol exposure only in prefrontal cortex (PFC) and hippocampus. In the majority of brain-regions, however, ethanol regulated gene expression changes occurred only immediately following CIE or within the first 8-hours of removal from ethanol.
