Exposure to Running Wheels Prevents Ethanol Rewarding Effects: The Role of CREB and Deacetylases SIRT-1 and SIRT-2 in the Nucleus Accumbens and Prefrontal Cortex. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • - Alcohol use disorder is influenced by environmental factors, and voluntary physical activity (VPA) may help reduce the rewarding effects of ethanol, potentially due to interactions involving the transcriptional factor CREB and sirtuins (SIRT-1 and SIRT-2).
  • - A study with mice demonstrated that those with access to running wheels (VPA) showed no development of ethanol-induced conditioned place preference (CPP), indicating that VPA could inhibit the appeal of alcohol.
  • - The findings revealed that VPA reduced the increased levels of CREB associated with ethanol exposure in brain regions linked to reward, suggesting that physical activity might counteract the molecular mechanisms behind alcohol's rewarding effects.

Article Abstract

Alcohol use disorder is one of the most prevalent addictions, strongly influenced by environmental factors. Voluntary physical activity (VPA) has proven to be intrinsically reinforcing and we hypothesized that, as a non-drug reinforcer, VPA could mitigate ethanol-induced rewarding effects. The transcriptional factor cAMP response element binding protein (CREB), and deacetylases isozymes sirtuins 1 and 2 (SIRT-1 and SIRT-2) have a complex interplay and both play a role in the rewarding effects of ethanol. To test whether the exposure of mice to running wheels inhibits the development of ethanol-induced conditioned place preference (CPP), mice were assigned into four groups: housed in home cages with locked ("Sedentary") or unlocked running wheels (VPA), and treated with saline or 1.8 g/kg ethanol during the conditioning phase. The groups were referred as Saline-Sedentary, Saline-VPA, Ethanol-Sedentary and Ethanol-VPA. The expression of CREB, SIRT-1 and SIRT-2 were evaluated in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and nucleus accumbens (NAc). VPA prevented the development of ethanol-induced CPP. VPA, ethanol and the combination of both inhibited pCREB and pCREB/CREB ratio in the NAc, suggesting that both reward stimuli can share similar patterns of CREB activation. However, we have found that ethanol-induced increased CREB levels were prevented by VPA. Both VPA groups presented lower SIRT-1 levels in the NAc compared to the Sedentary groups. Thus, exposure to running wheels prevented ethanol-rewarding effects and ethanol-induced increases in CREB in the NAc. The molecular alterations underlying CPP prevention may be related to a lower expression of CREB in the NAc of Ethanol-VPA compared to the respective Sedentary group, given the positive correlation between CPP and CREB levels in the Ethanol-Sedentary group.
