Sex-dependent effects of maternal separation on plasma corticosterone and brain monoamines in response to chronic ethanol administration

Highlights • Long maternal separation (LMS) does not alter motor activity or corticosterone levels. • In LMS females, chronic EtOH increases DA and 5-HT levels in frontal cortex. • In LMS males, chronic EtOH increased levels of hippocampal monoamines and metabolites. • Corticosterone response to chr...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Long maternal separation (LMS) does not alter motor activity or corticosterone levels. • In LMS females, chronic EtOH increases DA and 5-HT levels in frontal cortex. • In LMS males, chronic EtOH increased levels of hippocampal monoamines and metabolites. • Corticosterone response to chronic EtOH was higher in LMS males than in AFR counterparts.
