Effects of chronic alcohol consumption and withdrawal on the somatostatin‐immunoreactive neurons of the rat hippocampal dentate hilus

Effects of chronic alcohol consumption and withdrawal on the somatostatin‐immunoreactive neurons... Previous studies have demonstrated that the dentate granule and the CA3 pyramidal cells of the rat hippocampal formation are neuronal populations vulnerable to the toxic effects of ethanol. It also has been shown that the resulting alterations do not end after withdrawal from ethanol. As the neurons in the dentate hilus are heavily interconnected with the dentate granule cells, the authors decided to examine the fate of the hilar neurons after chronic alcohol consumption and withdrawal, inasmuch as the hilar somatostatin‐immunoreactive (SS‐I) neurons were found to be sensitive to cerebral ischemia and to seizures. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Hippocampus Wiley

Abstract

Previous studies have demonstrated that the dentate granule and the CA3 pyramidal cells of the rat hippocampal formation are neuronal populations vulnerable to the toxic effects of ethanol. It also has been shown that the resulting alterations do not end after withdrawal from ethanol. As the neurons in the dentate hilus are heavily interconnected with the dentate granule cells, the authors decided to examine the fate of the hilar neurons after chronic alcohol consumption and withdrawal, inasmuch as the hilar somatostatin‐immunoreactive (SS‐I) neurons were found to be sensitive to cerebral ischemia and to seizures.
