Abstract

Childhood adversity is associated with an increased risk of mood, anxiety and substance use disorders. Maternal separation is a reliable rodent model of early life adversity that leads to depression-like symptoms, which may increase the vulnerability to alcohol consumption during adolescence. However, the specific alterations in the pattern of alcohol consumption induced by maternal separation and the underlying molecular mechanisms are still unclear. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term effects of maternal separation with early weaning (MSEW) on emotional and social behaviour, alcohol rewarding properties, and alcohol consumption, abstinence and relapse in adolescent male C57BL/6 mice. In addition, endocannabinoid and monoamine levels were analysed in discrete brain areas. Results showed that MSEW mice presented emotional alterations related to depressive-like behaviour and modified endocannabinoid levels in the striatum and the prefrontal cortex. MSEW mice also showed impairments in alcohol-induced conditioned place preference and higher alcohol intake in a model of binge drinking. Moreover, MSEW animals displayed a higher propensity to relapse in the two-bottle choice paradigm following a period of alcohol abstinence associated with reduced monoamine levels in the striatum. Such results indicate that exposure to early life stress increased the vulnerability to alcohol binge-drinking during adolescence, which may be partially explained by decreased sensitivity to alcohol rewarding properties and the ability to potentiate alcohol intake following a period of abstinence.

  • Neglected rodents exhibited significantly elevated corticosterone levels, indicating a dysregulated HPA axis response and heightened sensitivity to stress.

    “The same rodents also exhibited significantly elevated corticosterone levels, indicating a dysregulated HPA axis response and, thus, heightened sensitivity to stress.”

    From Childhood Trauma, the HPA Axis and Psychiatric Illnesses: A Targeted Literature Synthesis (2022) · cites this paper as [146]

    The Results (section 3.4, p. 14) report significantly lower deoxycorticosterone (DOC) in maternally separated mice than in controls, not elevated levels. DOC is distinct from corticosterone, which the paper does not report measuring; the Introduction (p. 5) discusses heightened stress-hormone responsiveness as background, but does not establish the claimed result in these mice. (LLM, conf=0.86)

    Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.

  • Neglected rodent offspring have shown increased susceptibility to anxiety and depressive-like behaviors when exposed to stress in both adolescence and adulthood.

    “Neglected rodent offspring have shown increased susceptibility to anxiety and depressive-like behaviors when exposed to stress in both adolescence and adulthood (145, 146).”

    From Childhood Trauma, the HPA Axis and Psychiatric Illnesses: A Targeted Literature Synthesis (2022) · cites this paper as [146]

    The Discussion (p. 15) reports despair-like behaviour and heightened social anxiety in adolescent mice exposed to maternal separation. It also mentions a previous report of reduced interest in social novelty in adult maternally separated mice, but does not establish increased anxiety and depressive-like behaviours in adulthood following a later stress exposure.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
