    Efeitos da exposição crônica ao etanol da adolescência à fase adulta em ratos sobre o processo mnemônico e na densidade celular no hipocampo

    The central nervous system is vulnerable to the action of several substances including these are psychoactive substances such as ethyl alcohol or ethanol, which is consumed by mankind for a long time and is associated with a range of medical social problems. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate the neurobehavioral alterations and tissue from exposure to ethanol from adolescence to adulthood on the hippocampus. For this, 30 Wistar rats were evaluated distributed into control and ethanol, which upon reaching 35 days of age (adolescence) received by gavage ethanol at a dose of 6.5 g/Kg/day for 90 days (adulthood ). After this period, the animals were subjected to behavioral tests of open field, social recognition and avoidance for evaluation and subsequently perfused tissue through histological processing by violet cresila. Were collected and processed sections of 50 μm, the samples were subjected to staining violet cresila. The results demonstrate a deficit in the parameters measured in the behavioral assays such as impairment in natural ambulation of the animal, the percentage of the number of quarters and time in the central core area which suggests anxiogenic-like behavior, increase in exploratory activity surveying related to animal. Observed impairment in the development of mnemonic processes with reduced memory retention of short and long term as well as in social recognition. Regarding the treatment histologically observed decrease in cell density in CA1 and CA3 regions of the hippocampus. These results indicate that chronic exposure to ethanol from adolescence to adulthood disrupts behavioral aspects related to the limbic system, the hippocampus where it entered.

    Minociclina atenua os prejuízos motores em ratos submetidos à isquemia focal no córtex motor e expostos cronicamente ao etanol da adolescência à fase adulta
    (Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012-08-30) OLIVEIRA, Gedeão Batista de; MAIA, Cristiane do Socorro Ferraz; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4835820645258101
    According to World Health Organization, alcohol consumption in the world has become a public health problem. In this context, Brazil is at 63th position in the world in per capita alcohol consumption for people aged 15 or older. In addition to its socio-economic effects, ethanol is an important risk factor in the occurrence of cerebral ischemia. Exacerbated consumption of this drug contributes to the poor prognosis, as well as possible treatment for health problems related to stroke. The objective of this study was to evaluate neuromotor changes after blocking micróglial activation with minocycline in rats subjected to focal ischemia in the motor cortex, when treated chronically with ethanol from adolescence to adulthood. Rats were given for 55 days by gavage ethanol (6.5 g/kg/dia, 22.5 w/v). At the end of 55 days the animals were microinjected with the vasoconstrictor peptide endothelin-1 (40 pmol) for induction of focal ischemic lesion. The ischemic animals were treated with minocycline receiving two daily doses of 50 mg/kg in the first two days, and five daily applications of single 25mg/kg, intraperitoneally, by the seventh day post-ischemic induction. Behavioral tests consisted of open field, inclined plane and rota-rod. The results showed that the animals were exposed to ethanol showed motor deficits in all behavioral tests. However, treatment with minocycline was able to reverse them, enabling better performance on all tests. The results suggest that minocycline was able to reverse damage caused by motors stroke, even in the presence of ethanol. The exact mechanism involved in this process need to be investigated in future research.
