چکیده انگلیسی
Alcohol consumption produces various behavioral effects and its administration is associated with increases of dopamine (DA) levels in the nucleus accumbens (Acc). However, it is not yet clear if these behavioral and neurochemical effects are associated with a different functionality of the Acc and ventral tegmental area (VTA), the neural structures that constitute the dopaminergic mesoaccumbens system. The present study was designed to analyze whether the electroencephalographic (EEG) correlation between the Acc and VTA shows characteristic changes after the forced administration of ethanol in male rats. Simultaneous EEG recordings were obtained from the left and right Acc and VTA in adult male rats during a 40Â min period immediately after an i.p. injection of ethanol (15% v/v in a dose of 0.75Â g/kg). During the 40Â min period after i.p. ethanol administration, an increase of the fast frequencies (13-21Â Hz) was observed in Acc and VTA. The interaccumbens correlation showed a significant decrease in the theta frequencies (4-7 and 8-12Â Hz bands), whereas the intrahemispheric r in both hemispheres showed a clear increase in the fast frequencies. The possible participation of the mesoaccumbens system in the arousal state and in the motivo-emotional aspects of ethanol is suggested.
