Project description:The objective of this study was to determine changes in gene expression within the extended amygdala following binge-like alcohol drinking by adolescent alcohol-preferring (P) rats. Starting at 28 days of age, P rats were given concurrent access to 15 and 30 % ethanol for 3 one-h sessions for 5 consecutive days each week until they were 49 days old. Rats were killed by decapitation 3 h after the first ethanol access session on the 15th day of drinking. RNA was prepared from micropunch samples of the nucleus accumbens shell (Acb-sh) and central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA). Ethanol intakes were 2.5 to 3.0 g/kg/session. There were 154 and 182 unique named genes that significantly differed (FDR = 0.2) between the water and ethanol group in the Acb-sh and CeA, respectively. Gene Ontology (GO) analyses indicated that adolescent binge drinking produced changes in the in biological processes involved in cell proliferation and regulation of cellular structure in the Acb-sh, and in neuron projection and positive regulation of cellular organization in the CeA. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis indicated that, in the Acb-sh, there were several major intracellular signaling pathways (e.g., cAMP-mediated and protein kinase A signaling pathways) altered by adolescent drinking, with 3-fold more genes up-regulated than down-regulated in the alcohol group. The cAMP-mediated signaling system was also up-regulated in the CeA of the alcohol group. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) indicated significant G-protein coupled receptor signaling and transmembrane receptor protein kinase signaling categories in the Acb-sh and CeA, respectively. Overall, the results of this study indicated that binge-like alcohol drinking by adolescent P rats is differentially altering the expression of genes in the Acb-sh and CeA, some of which are involved in intracellular signaling pathways and may produce long-term changes in neuronal function. Differences in gene expression in the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) were compared in two groups of alcohol-preferring (P) rats, one given water only and the other given access to 15 & 30% ethanol during adolescence.

Project description:Heavy alcohol drinking dysregulates lung immunity and host defense, which makes individuals with AUD more susceptible to develop inflammatory condition in lungs with poor prognosis. Current study, we focused on exploring the effects of chronic alcohol consumption on lungs using NIAAA alcohol feeding model in mice with 10 days of a Lieber-DeCarli liquid diet containing 5% ethanol followed by a single ethanol binge (5 g/kg) and population based human lung transcriptome data from Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project consist of 328 alcohol drinkers and 110 non-drinkers. Flow cytometry and transcriptomics analysis in mice lungs revealed that alcohol consumption dysregulates cellularity of immune cell levels and lung immunity. Transcriptomics analysis both in lungs and liver at 9-, 24- hours and 14 days post ethanol binge in mice uncovered that the lungs were more sensitive to alcohol effect to down-regulate pathways of immune system regulations than liver. Comparative data analysis of lung transcriptomes between mice and human subjects not only confirmed similar dysregulation on lung immunity but also provided evidence that immunometabolic changes are the central driver of alterations in lung transcriptome with down regulating immune pathways and upregulating metabolic pathways. Since the NIAAA model recapitulates multiple changes in the lung transcriptome that had been observed in human subjects with chronic alcohol drinking, this makes the mouse model suitable for experimental studies exploring role of alcohol drinking in lung health. Chronic alcohol drinking reduced mTOR signaling and cellularity of immune cells, which can be further attenuated by selective inhibition of mTOR. BCAA-mTOR signaling axis can be an upstream regulator of alcohol induced dysregulation in lung immunity

Project description:Adolescent binge alcohol exposure has been previously shown to have long-lasting effects on the expression of hypothalamic genes that regulate the stress response, even in the absence of subsequent adult alcohol exposure. Those data suggested that alcohol can induce permanent gene expression changes, potentially through epigenetic modifications. Importantly, epigenetic modifications can be transmitted to future generations therefore, in these studies we investigated the effects of adolescent binge alcohol exposure on hypothalamic gene expression patterns in the F1 generation offspring. It has been well documented that maternal alcohol exposure during fetal development can have devastating neurological consequences. However, less is known about the consequences of maternal and/or paternal alcohol exposure outside of the gestational time frame. Here, we exposed adolescent male and female rats to a repeated binge EtOH exposure paradigm and then mated them in adulthood. Hypothalamic samples were taken from the offspring of these animals at postnatal day (PND) 7 and subjected to a genome-wide microarray analysis followed by qRT-PCR for selected genes. Importantly, the parents were not intoxicated at the time of mating and were not exposed to EtOH at any time during gestation therefore, the offspring were never directly exposed to EtOH. Our results showed that the offspring of alcohol-exposed parents had significant differences in the expression of hypothalamic genes that mediate neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity during neurodevelopment, genes important for directing chromatin remodeling, posttranslational modifications or transcription regulation, as well as genes involved in regulation of obesity and reproductive function. These data demonstrate that repeated binge alcohol exposure during pubertal development can potentially have detrimental effects on future offspring even in the absence of direct fetal alcohol exposure. Male and female Wistar rats were purchased from Charles River Laboratories (Wilmington, MA) at weaning (postnatal day (PND) 23) and allowed to acclimate for 7 days after arrival. Animals were handled for 5 min./once/day beginning at PND 30. Pubertal EtOH exposure began on PND 37, which is defined as peri-puberty. Animals were undisturbed following the first exposure of our binge EtOH exposure paradigm until PND 68 (late puberty/early adult) at which time they received a second exposure to the same treatment paradigm. During the duration of the experiment, males and females were separately housed in pairs on a 12:12 light/dark cycle with lights on at 0700 h with food and water available ad libitum. Binge Exposure Paradigm and Treatment Design. Rats were handled 5min./once/day for 7 d prior to treatment to control for nonspecific stress responses. At 37 d, animals were given 3 g/kg EtOH (20% v/v in tap water; N = 3/sex), or tap water alone (N = 3/sex), once/day via oral gavage at 10:00 AM to avoid disrupting normal feeding patterns. This process was repeated according to the following schedule for a total duration of 8 consecutive days: 3 d EtOH, 2 d tap water, 3 d EtOH. Control animals were given tap water alone once/day for 8 consecutive days. Our previous studies showed that this repeated binge-pattern EtOH paradigm does not affect body weight/growth curves and consistently results in blood alcohol concentrations (BAC) of 150-180 mg/dl in males and 210-240 mg/dl in females. We and others have previously used this paradigm as a model for the pattern of binge alcohol consumption observed in adolescents and BAC achieved are similar to those observed in humans following a binge drinking episode . After peri-pubertal treatments, animals were left undisturbed in their home cage until PND 68 when each group was again exposed to their respective treatment (i.e. control or binge EtOH. We waited 24 hours after the last dose of EtOH to ensure that blood alcohol concentrations in the parents were undetectable at the time of mating (data not shown). Animals were grouped into mating pairs: binge male + binge female (N = 3 pairs); water male + water female (N = 3 pairs). All of the females gave birth to 12-16 pups approximately 28 d after being housed with a male, indicating that conception took place approximately 6 d after pairing; therefore, the pups were never directly exposed to alcohol at any time. At PND 7 pups were deeply anesthetized on ice and sacrificed. Brains were rapidly removed, the hypothalamus microdissected on ice, and then stored in -80ºC until further processing for a genome-wide analysis on hypothalamic total RNA samples using a chip-based microarray (Southern California Genotyping Consortium, SCGC, Illumina Rat Ref-12). The PND 7 time point was chosen because the extent of rat neurodevelopment at PND 7 is roughly equivalent to that of a human infant at birth

Project description:The goal of this study was to identify molecular mechanisms regulated by pharmacological and placebo effects of binge-drinking at a transcriptome-wide level. We performed RNA-seq on PBMC samples collected from healthy heavy social drinkers (N=18) enrolled in an upto 12-day in-patient, randomized, double-blind, cross-over human laboratory trial testing three alcohol doses: Placebo, medium (0.05g/kg (men), 0.04g/kg (women)), and binge (1g/kg (men), 0.9g/kg (women)), administered in three 4-day experiments, separated by minimum of 7-day washout periods. Effects of beverage doses on differential expression of genes (DEGs) within each experiment compared to its own baseline, across experimental sequences in which each beverage dose was administered, and responsiveness to regular alcohol compared to placebo assessing pharmacological effects of alcohol were analyzed.

Project description:The objective of this study was to determine changes in gene expression in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) following loss-of-control alcohol drinking by alcohol-preferring (P) rats. Adult female P rats (n = 7) were given concurrent access to 10, 20 and 30% EtOH for four 1-hr sessions daily for 10 weeks followed by 2 cycles of 2 weeks of abstinence and 2 weeks of EtOH access. Rats were killed by decapitation 3 hr after the 4th daily EtOH-access session at the end of the second 2-week relapse period. An age-matched water control group of female P rats (n = 8) was also killed. RNA was prepared from micropunch samples of the VTA from individual rats; analyses were conducted with Affymetrix Rat 230.2 chips. Ethanol intakes were 1.5-2.5 g/kg per sessions, resulting in blood levels >200 mg% at the end of the 4th session. There were 211 named genes that were significantly different (FDR = 0.1) between the water and EtOH groups. Bioinformatics analyses indicated alterations in (a) transcription factors that reduced excitation-coupled transcription and promoted exocitotic neuronal damage involving clusters of genes associated with Nfkbia, Fos and Srebf1; (b) genes that reduced cholesterol and fatty acid synthesis, and increased protein degradation; and (c) genes involved in cell-to-cell interactions and regulation of the actin cytoskeleton. Among the named genes, there were 62 genes in common with differences between alcohol-naïve P and non-preferring (NP) rats, with 43 of the genes changing in the opposite direction following excessive binge-like drinking. These genes are involved in a pro-inflammatory response, and enhanced response to glucocorticoids and steroid hormones. Overall, the results of this study indicated that excessive binge-like alcohol drinking by P rats may be altering the expression of genes that promote neuronal damage.

Project description:The objective of this study was to determine changes in gene expression within the extended amygdala following binge-like drinking by alcohol-preferring (P) rats. Adult male P rats were given 1-hr access to 15 and 30% ethanol (EtOH) three times daily for 8 weeks. Rats (n = 10/time point for EtOH and n = 6/time point for water) were killed by decapitation 1, 6 and 24 hr after the last drinking episode. Brains were extracted and rapidly frozen in isopentane in dry ice. RNA was prepared from individual micropunch samples of the nucleus accumbens shell (ACB-sh) and central nucleus of the amygada (CeA); microarray analyses were conducted with Affymetrix Rat 230.2 chips. EtOH intakes were 1.5-2 g/kg/session. Because too few genes changed at the individual time points, an overall effect, comparing the water and EtOH groups, was determined. In the ACB-sh and CeA, there were 276 and 402 probe sets for named genes, respectively, that were different between the two groups. There were 1.5- to 3.5- fold more genes up-regulated than down-regulated in both regions, with most differences between 1.1- to 1.2-fold. Although there were several significant Biological Processes categories in common between the 2 regions (e.g., synaptic transmission, neurite development), there were few genes in common between the two regions that differed between the EtOH and water groups. Overall, the results suggest that chronic binge-like alcohol drinking by P rats produces changes in the expression of genes that could alter neuronal function by different mechanisms in the ACB-sh and CeA. 17 samples of control and 31 samples of treatment for each brain region
