项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The primary objective of this NADIA core is to integrate and expand the Consortium research projects. The hypothesis of the Scientific Core is that adolescent intermittent ethanol (AIE) impacts brain development and induces specific neuro-adaptations that persist into adulthood as a specific neurochemical and morphological phenotype. Thus, the Scientific Core will serve and link NADIA components by providing neurochemical and morphological brain atlases that will define the phenotype of the brain exposed to alcohol during adolescence. Each component will send brains to the core for immunohistochemical determination of pivotal neurotransmitter gene expression in brain regions related to the physiology and behaviors being studied. Additionally, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) data will be collected on select data sets in order to provide global structural information on the impact of different AIE models on adult brain. Finally, all the resulting data will be shared and unused brain tissue will be archived to allow for future analysis. Together, these approaches will provide critical information on neurobiological mechanisms that underlie AlE-induced changes in adult behavior and physiology. The Scientific Core will use an animal model of adolescence alcohol drinking to investigate how alcohol changes brain structure and neurochemistry. This endeavor, along with the resulting data repository, serves to integrate the research components of the NADIA Consortium and will provide a foundation for understanding differences in adolescent life trajectories and maturation of important behavioral repertoires.

描述（由申请人提供）：该NADIA核心的主要目标是整合和扩展财团研究项目。科学核心的假设是，青少年间歇性乙醇（AIE）会影响脑发育，并诱导特定的神经适应性，这些神经适应能够作为特定的神经化学和形态学表型。因此，科学核心将通过提供神经化学和形态学的大脑图谱来服务并连接NADIA成分，从而定义青春期暴露于酒精的大脑的表型。每个成分将向核心发送大脑，以确定与生理学和所研究行为有关的大脑区域中关键神经递质基因表达。此外，将在选定的数据集上收集磁共振成像（MRI）和扩散张量成像（DTI）数据，以提供有关不同AIE模型对成人大脑的影响的全球结构信息。最后，将共享所有结果数据，并将归档未使用的脑组织以进行将来的分析。这些方法一起将提供有关神经生物学机制的关键信息，这些神经生物学机制是麦芽啤酒引起的成人行为和生理学变化的基础。科学核心将使用青春期饮酒的动物模型来研究酒精如何改变大脑结构和神经化学。这项努力以及由此产生的数据存储库来整合Nadia联盟的研究组成部分，并将为了解青少年生活轨迹的差异和重要行为库的成熟提供基础。公共卫生相关性：科学核心将使用青春期饮酒的动物模型来研究酒精如何改变大脑结构和神经化学。这项努力以及由此产生的数据存储库来整合Nadia联盟的研究组成部分，并将为了解青少年生活轨迹的差异和重要行为库的成熟提供基础。
