摘要

Ethanol withdrawal is a dysphoric condition that arises from termination of ethanol intake by dependent individuals. Common withdrawal symptoms include anxiety, increased reactivity to stimuli and increased seizure susceptibility as well as the risk of increased seizure severity. We use an animal model of dependence and withdrawal to study withdrawal behaviors and potential underlying neurobiological mechanisms. For a number of years, we have quantified pentylenetetrazol seizure thresholds as an assessment of ethanol withdrawal at both one day and three days of withdrawal. Typically, we see a significant decrease in seizure threshold (increased sensitivity to seizure induction) that persists through three days of withdrawal for male rats. Increasing evidence indicates that voluntary exercise affords protection against various challenges to physical and psychological health, including ethanol-related challenges. Therefore, the current study investigated the effect of voluntary wheel running on seizure susceptibility following chronic ethanol administration and withdrawal. We found that voluntary wheel running attenuated the increased sensitivity to pentylenetetrazol-induced seizures observed with ethanol withdrawal, at both the one-day and three-day time points. This result was especially interesting as animals with access to the running wheels consumed more of the ethanol-containing diet. These findings showed that chronic voluntary wheel running reduces the severity of ethanol withdrawal in our animal model and suggest that exercise-based interventions may have some utility in the clinical management of heavy drinking and alcohol withdrawal.
