Activated mesenchymal stem cell administration inhibits chronic alcohol drinking and suppresses relapse ‐like drinking in high‐alcohol drinker rats
This study supports the neuroinflammation‐chronic ethanol intake hypothesis and suggest that mesenchymal stem cell administration may be considered in the treatment of alcohol use disorders. Neuroinflammation induced by ethanol has been proposed to perpetuate alcohol consumption. Present study shows that the administration of anti‐inflammatory human mesenchymal cells (hMSC) into the cerebrospinal fluid of rats that had consumed ethanol chronically inhibited their alcohol intake by 70% and reduced relapse binge‐like drinking by 80%. Astrocyte neuroinflammation induced in hippocampus by chronic ethanol consumption was...

Imaging the neuroimmune response to alcohol exposure in adolescent baboons: a TSPO PET study using 18F ‐DPA‐714
Abstract The effects of acute alcohol exposure to the central nervous system are hypothesized to involve the innate immune system. The neuroimmune response to an initial and acute alcohol exposure was investigated using translocator protein 18 kDa (TSPO) PET imaging, a non‐invasive marker of glial activation, in adolescent baboons. Three different alcohol‐naive adolescent baboons (3–4 years old, 9 to 14 kg) underwent 18F‐DPA‐714 PET experiments before, during and 7–12 months after this initial alcohol exposure (0.7–1.0 g/l). The brain distribution of 18F‐DPA‐714 (VT; in ml/cm3) was estimated in sever...
