Alcohol addiction is a chronic neuropsychiatric disorder that constitutes one of the most serious global public health problems,and yet lacks effective ***-3polyunsaturated fatty acids(n-3 PUFAs) have been demonstrated to exert beneficial effects in a variety of neurological disorders,particularly on reversing behavioral deficits and neurotoxicity induced by prenatal alcohol exposure and binge alcohol *** the present study,we found that n-3 PUFAs could effectively alleviate withdrawal symptoms of adult mice after chronic alcohol exposure(CAE),reduce the propensity to relapse,and significantly reverse CAE induced dendritic morphologic changes of MSNs in the core of nucleus accumbens(NAc).Moreover,n-3 PUFAs decreased the expression of GluA2-lacking AMPARl and AMPAR3 and prevented their accumulation in post synaptic ***,the mice treated with n-3 PUFAs exhibited reduced CAE-evoked aberrant synaptic ***,the results of the study suggest that n-3 PUFAs could ameliorate withdrawal symptoms and alcohol dependence possibly through modulating AMPARs mediated neuroplasticity.
