Food Chem Toxicol 2023; 174:113685. [PMID: 36813153 PMCID: PMC10110353 DOI: 10.1016/j.fct.2023.113685] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2022] [Revised: 02/17/2023] [Accepted: 02/18/2023] [Indexed: 02/22/2023]
Abstract
Parkinson's Disease (PD) and Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) are disorders that involve similar dopaminergic neurobiological pathways and dysregulations in motivation- and reward-related behaviors. This study explored whether exposure to a PD-related neurotoxicant, paraquat (PQ), alters binge-like alcohol drinking and striatal monoamines in mice selectively bred for high alcohol preference (HAP), and whether these effects are sex-dependent. Previous studies found female mice are less susceptible to PD-related toxicants compared to male mice. Mice were treated with PQ or vehicle over 3 weeks (10 mg/kg, i.p. once per week) and binge-like alcohol [20% (v/v)] drinking was assessed. Mice were euthanized and brains were microdissected for monoamine analyses by high performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection (HPLC-ECD). PQ-treated HAP male mice showed significantly decreased binge-like alcohol drinking and ventral striatal 3,4-Dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) levels compared to vehicle-treated HAP mice. These effects were absent in female HAP mice. These findings suggest that male HAP mice may be more susceptible than female mice to PQ's disruptive effects on binge-like alcohol drinking and associated monoamine neurochemistry and may be relevant for understanding neurodegenerative processes implicated in PD and AUD.

Neural dysfunctions following experimental permanent occlusions of bilateral common carotid arteries cause an increase of rat voluntary alcohol drinking behavior. Leg Med (Tokyo) 2021; 51:101875.

Abstract
We have previously reported that ischemic animal models treated with a respiratory inhibitor, rotenon, show an increased voluntary alcohol intake. Although it is clear that ischemic brain, as a result of reduced-blood flow, shows pathological events and/or neuro-degenerations apparently, little is known of causal relationship between the mechanism of neural dysfunction and voluntary alcohol consumption. Authors have investigated effects of permanent two-vessel occlusion (p2VO) on rat voluntary alcohol drinking behavior. In first experiment the p2VO-treated rats showed an increase of voluntary alcohol drinking behavior, as compared with sham controls. Using brain microdialysis technique, increases of only nucleus accumbens (ACC) dopamine (DA) releases were suppressed in the p2VO-treated rats significantly, following the high K+ (40 mM) perfusion through the microdialysis probe membrane. Alcohol (200 mM) perfusion-induced DA and serotonin (5-HT) releases in the ACC of the p2VO-treated rats were suppressed significantly in the second experiment, as compared with the sham-treated rats. In third experiment p2VO-treated rats showed significant decreases of the contents of DA, not 5-HT, in the ACC, caudate-putamen (C/P), ventral tegmental area-substantia nigra (VT/SN) and lateral hypothalamus (LH). Dopaminergic neurons in the ACC showed more functional vulnerability against the p2VO treatments, as compared with the serotonergic neurons. An increase of alcohol intake in the p2VO-treated rats means the compensation for the neural degeneration of the dopaminergic system in the ACC consisted brain rewarding system. It was likely suggested that neural disturbance of higher functions involved with incomplete global brain ischemia leads the risk of an abnormal alcohol drinking in human.

Abstract
In the third millennium where ethical, ethological and cultural evolution seem to be leading more and more towards an inter-species society, the issue of animal experimentation is a moral dilemma. Speaking from a self-interested human perspective, avoiding all animal testing where human disease and therapy are concerned may be very difficult or even impossible; such testing may not be so easily justifiable when suffering-or killing-of non human animals is inflicted for forensic research. In order to verify how forensic scientists are evolving in this ethical issue, we undertook a systematic review of the current literature. We investigated the frequency of animal experimentation in forensic studies in the past 15 years and trends in publication in the main forensic science journals. Types of species, lesions inflicted, manner of sedation or anesthesia and euthanasia were examined in a total of 404 articles reviewed, among which 279 (69.1%) concerned studies involving animals sacrificed exclusively for the sake of the experiment. Killing still frequently includes painful methods such as blunt trauma, electrocution, mechanical asphyxia, hypothermia, and even exsanguination; of all these animals, apparently only 60.8% were anesthetized. The most recent call for a severe reduction if not a total halt to the use of animals in forensic sciences was made by Bernard Knight in 1992. In fact the principle of reduction and replacement, frequently respected in clinical research, must be considered the basis for forensic science research needing animals.

Abstract
Many studies have shown that mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) functions as a cellular protector against oxidative stress by detoxification of cytotoxic aldehydes. Within dopaminergic neurons, dopamine is metabolized by monoamine oxidase to yield 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (DOPAL) then converts to a less toxic acid product by ALDH. The highly toxic and reactive DOPAL has been hypothesized to contribute to the selective neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s disease (PD). In this study, we investigated the neuroprotective mechanism and therapeutic effect of ALDH2 in rotenone models for parkinsonism. Overexpression of wild-type ALDH2 gene, but not the enzymatically deficient mutant ALDH2*2 (E504K), reduced rotenone-induced cell death. Application of a potent activator of ALDH2, Alda-1, was effective in protecting against rotenone-induced apoptotic cell death in both SH-SY5Y cells and primary cultured substantia nigra (SN) dopaminergic neurons. In addition, intraperitoneal administration of Alda-1 significantly reduced rotenone- or MPTP-induced death of SN tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-positive dopaminergic neurons. The attenuation of rotenone-induced apoptosis by Alda-1 resulted from decreasing ROS accumulation, reversal of mitochondrial membrane potential depolarization, and inhibition of activation of proteins related to mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. The present study demonstrates that ALDH2 plays a crucial role in maintaining normal mitochondrial function to protect against neurotoxicity and that Alda-1 is effective in ameliorating mitochondrial dysfunction and inhibiting mitochondria-mediated apoptotic pathway. These results indicate that ALDH2 activation could be a neuroprotective therapy for PD.
