dc.description.abstract | Abusive use of alcohol is classified as a substance-induced disorder, capable of
producing intoxication, withdrawal, and anxiety, possibly leading to relapse. Several
studies have demonstrated the role of the serotonergic system as a modulator of
behaviors related to anxiety and reward and alcohol dependence. Among
serotonergic sources projecting to many brain areas, we can mention Dorsal raphe
nucleus (DRN) and its portions. Therefore, the goal of this study was to investigate
whether alcohol would alter the labeling of serotonergic cells in the dorsal (DRD) and
ventral (DRV) portions of the NDR, in animals submitted to short (3 days) and long
term (21 days) withdrawal, as well as continuous consumption and correlate the
marking of the cells with behavioral states related to the anxiety generated by alcohol
withdrawal. For this, two independent experiments were performed: in experiment 01
(behavioral stage), male Wistar rats were divided into 3 experimental groups, being a
control group (water), 3 days withdrawn group and 21 days withdrawn group, all
groups received chronic treatment with alcohol for 21 days. After a 3 days withdrawal
and withdrawal of 21 days, animals were submitted to the elevated plus maze (EPM).
Twenty-four hours later, they were submitted to the open field (OF) where
anxietyrelated behaviors were assessed for 5 minutes. In the experiment 02
(immunohistochemical analysis) the groups mentioned above were added to the
group that received continuous alcohol for 21 days, without withdrawal and followed
the same treatment and withdrawal scheme. Then, it was performed a perfusion and
immunohistochemistry test in the DRD and DRV portions of the DRN. Body weight
and consumption of food and water-alcohol were monitored throughout the
experimental period, for both experiments. In experiment 1, it was observed that
alcohol withdrawal for 3 or 21 days altered neither the conventional and ethological
parameters related to anxiety in the EPM and OF, nor the locomotion in EPM. In
Experiment 2, it was observed that alcohol withdrawal for 3 or 21 days and
continuous consumption did not change the immunoblot of serotonergic cells in both
the observed portions. However, a significant increase in cell density was observed
for the 3 day withdrawn group. This study demonstrated that serotonergic
neurotransmission may be affected by alcohol withdrawal, but this change was not
related to anxiety-related behaviors. | |
