Impact of adolescent stress on the expression of stress‐related receptors in the hippocampus of animals exposed to alcohol prenatally
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Many functions of the hippocampus are affected by prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE). In particular, dysregulation of the stress response is especially important because individuals with PAE carry increased risks for exposure to stressful environments throughout life. Little is known, though, about how adolescent stress in the context of PAE-related stress system dysregulation may further alter hippocampal development. Here, we investigate the short- and long-term effects of adolescent chronic mild stress (CMS) on mRNA expression of stress-related mineralocorticoid (MR), glucocorticoid (GR), and type 1 CRH (CRHR1) receptors in the dorsal and ventral hippocampal formation of PAE and control rats. Our results indicate that PAE affects the expression of stress-related receptors in the hippocampus; however, PAE effects were more prominent during adolescence, as MR and CRHR1 mRNA expression were altered in both male and female PAE animals, with GR mRNA expression alterations observed only in PAE female. In adulthood, the effects of PAE were restricted to alterations in CRHR1 mRNA expression in females, while there were no effects in males. In contrast, the effects of adolescent CMS were more pronounced in adulthood, long after stress exposure termination. Importantly, PAE animals were less responsive to adolescent CMS, with effects only on CRHR1 in PAE animals compared to the altered MR, GR, and CRHR1 mRNA expression observed in controls. Together, our results show that PAE and adolescent CMS induce dynamic alterations in the expression of stress-related receptors in the hippocampal formation that manifest differently depending on the age and sex of the animal.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
