Ethanol (EtOH) is a psychotropic drug, central nervous system (CNS) depressant, but widely encouraged and consumed by Brazilian society, as well as in much of the world, reflecting on a public health problem. In recent decades, teenagers have been practicing a very common practice, which is binge drinking. The harmful consumption of EtOH promotes, besides biopsychosocial alteration, the homeostatic imbalance that causes neurodegeneration and loss of function with motor disorders. In contrast, the practice of moderate physical training (MPT) has been recommended for the maintenance of physical and mental health, as well as prevention or minimization of the development of some diseases due to motor activity inducing plastic and dynamic changes in the CNS, in order to favor the neurogenesis, synaptogenesis and angiogenesis, besides contributing to the synaptic modulation. In view of the benefits of MPT, it was investigated the neuroprotective effects on motor, tissue and biochemical parameters in the cerebellum of rats exposed to binge-pattern EtOH from adolescence to adulthood. Forty male Wistar rats with 30 days old were used and divided into four groups, the control being sedentary animals and treated with distilled H2O; the trained, composed of animals exercised and treated with distilled H2O; EtOH, formed by sedentary animals and treated with doses of 3 g/kg/day EtOH, 20% (w/v); and Trained + EtOH, with exercised animals and treated with doses of 3 g/kg/day EtOH, 20% (w/v). The MPT protocol was performed on a rodent treadmill for 5 days for 4 weeks and binge-pattern EtOH doses were administered by intragastric gavage in the same weeks as the MPT. After this period, the animals were submitted to open field and beam walking behavioral tests. Then, they were euthanized for cerebellum collection, evaluating immunohistochemistry from the levels of trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC), reduced glutathione (GSH), nitrite and lipid peroxidation (LPO); as well as Purkinje cell morphology (PC), the fraction of anti-synaptophysine (SYP) and anti-myelin basic protein (MBP) immunolabeled area. According to the result, EtOH caused severe oxidative stress and motor damage, but the execution of the MPT performed promoted neuroprotective effects in the rat cerebellum, among them, the modulation of oxidative biochemistry by the restoration of GSH levels. decreased LPO levels and increased TEAC, as well as preventing neuronal loss, synaptic vesicle damage (SYP) and myelin components (MBP). Therefore, MPT can be considered as a significant therapeutic strategy for the acquisition of redox homeostasis, avoiding oxidative biochemistry imbalance, as well as tissue and functional damage in the cerebellum of rats treated by binge pattern EtOH.
