ABSTRACT Introduction Substance use disorders, particularly alcohol represent a significant public health problem, with adolescents vulnerable to their adverse effects. This study examined the possible anxiolytic and antidepressant effects of biotin, crucial vitamin for brain function, in attenuating behavioral neurobiological changes associated withdrawal adolescent rats. Materials Methods Sixty male Sprague–Dawley rats were exposed 20% ethanol solution 21 days, followed by 21‐day drug‐free period assess long‐term physiological changes. Behavioral assessments included Open Field Test, Elevated Plus Maze, Forced Swimming administered post‐withdrawal evaluate anxiety depression behaviors. Additionally, biochemical analyses performed measure serotonin levels, monoamine oxidase‐A (MAO‐A) activity, BDNF concentrations. Results The results indicate that significantly induced anxiety‐ depression‐like behavior However, treatment at higher doses, effectively attenuated these withdrawal‐related Mechanistically, biotin administration was found regulate oxidase brain‐derived neurotrophic factor, glial fibrillary acidic protein, alleviate oxidative stress markers cortical tissue. Discussion this suggest may have therapeutic potential alleviating negative withdrawal, those related depression. Further research is needed elucidate underlying mechanisms examine clinical supplementation individuals undergoing withdrawal.

Early life stress (ELS) is a major risk factor for alcohol use disorder (AUD) and comorbid neuropsychiatric conditions. We previously demonstrated that an adolescent social isolation (aSI) model of ELS significantly increased behavioral factors these disorders (e.g. anxiety-like behaviors, drinking) in male, but not female rats. Since many neurodevelopmental milestones are accelerated females, we investigated whether earlier/shorter window (PND 21-38) would yield comparable phenotypes both sexes. In two experiments, Long Evans rats were socially isolated (SI) or group-housed (GH) on postnatal day (PND) 21 locomotion was assessed the open field test (OFT; PND 30).

Abstract Aims This study examined how adolescent social isolation affects adult binge-like alcohol drinking and stress–axis function, via basal levels of circulating corticosterone (CORT), in male female mice with a genetic predisposition toward high preference (HAP). Methods Male HAP2 were randomly assigned to group-housed or (ISO) group. Social began at postnatal Days 40–42 lasted for 21 days prior assessment using 4-day drinking-in-the-dark (DID) procedure. Blood samples assess CORT taken 6 after ended 24 h before DID started, again 60 ended, during the light portion cycle. Results Adolescent increased but not mice. All groups showed significantly lower compared DID. Pearson bivariate correlation coefficients between first 2 grams-per-kilogram intake on Day 4 indicated significant positive ISO males only negative correlations females Conclusions These findings demonstrate that Stress–axis adaptations may be associated social-isolation-induced increase drinking.

We analyzed 17th population-based cross-sectional data from Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed compare BDE, by sex. In 54,848 adolescents, prevalence of BDE 5.3 % in boys 4.4 girls. The suicidal ideation, plans, attempts girls 7.8 %, 2.4 1.4 respectively. suicide with both moods higher than that boys. Boys mood had 12.60 times 14.50 adjusted odds ratio (aOR) ideation plan, respectively, compared non-drinking/non-depressed group. Girls 22.06 aOR has few limitations including use self-report questionnaires, participants' response bias, lack diagnosis mental health professionals.
