The effects of environmental enrichment on synaptic spine density in hippocampal area CA1 were examined in rats exposed prenatally to alcohol. Pregnant dams were given ethanol via intragastric intubation (6 g/kg/day) from gestational days 8 through 19, or given isocaloric sucrose. An untreated control group was also used. After weaning, offspring from the three groups were then reared for 10 weeks...
Alcohol teratogenesis may be due in part to inhibition of neuronal differentiation by ethanol. We showed previously that alcohol decreased neuronal differentiation (neurite extension) and increased N-myc and c-myc neuronal protein levels. Since Growth-Associated Protein 43 (GAP43/B50) levels must increase for neurons to differentiate, alcohol may decrease GAP43/B50. Alcohol dose-dependently (0-0...
