ABSTRACT
Adolescence is a critical period for brain maturation in which this organ is more vulnerable to the damaging effects of ethanol. Administration of ethanol in mice induces a rapid cerebral upregulation of pleiotrophin (PTN), a cytokine that regulates the neuroinflammatory processes induced by different insults and the behavioral effects of ethanol. PTN binds Receptor Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase (RPTP) ß/ζ and inhibits its phosphatase activity, suggesting that RPTPß/ζ may be involved in the regulation of ethanol effects. To test this hypothesis, we have treated adolescent mice with the RPTPß/ζ inhibitor MY10 (60 mg/kg) before an acute ethanol (6 g/kg) administration. Treatment with MY10 completely prevented the ethanol-induced neurogenic loss in the hippocampus of both male and female mice. In flow cytometry studies, ethanol tended to increase the number of NeuN+/activated Caspase-3+ cells particularly in female mice, but no significant effects were found. Ethanol increased Iba1+ cell area and the total marked area in the hippocampus of female mice, suggesting sex differences in ethanol-induced microgliosis. In addition, ethanol reduced the circulating levels of IL-6 and IL-10 in both sexes, although this reduction was only found significant in males and not affected by MY10 treatment. Interestingly, MY10 alone increased the total marked area and the number of Iba1+ cells only in the female hippocampus, but tended to reduce the circulating levels of TNF-α only in male mice. In summary, the data identify a novel modulatory role of RPTPß/ζ on ethanol-induced loss of hippocampal neurogenesis, which seems unrelated to glial and inflammatory responses. The data also suggest sex differences in RPTPß/ζ function that may be relevant to immune responses and ethanol-induced microglial responses.
