...While the contributions of LTP and LTD to different forms of learning are uncertain, the form of one-trial learning we studied has been linked previously to changes in hippocampal LTP (Whitlock et al., 2006; Tokuda et al., 2010) suggesting that the behavioral effects observed here may be most relevant to ethanol-induced changes in LTP....

...For these studies, we used a one trial inhibitory avoidance learning task, a form of learning dependent upon hippocampal plasticity (Whitlock et al., 2006; Tokuda et al., 2010)....

...Prior studies have found that agonists at liver X receptors (LXRs), a subtype of nuclear receptors, can dampen ER stress via effects on membrane phospholipid composition (Sun et al., 2016; Rong et al., 2013; Janowski et al., 1999)....

...Greater intoxication (BAL ~ 20–40 mM) results in slowed thinking and altered learning; at BAL above 40 mM some individuals develop acute memory “blackouts” (White, 2003; Abrahao et al., 2017)....

...Memory blackouts can have devastating personal and societal effects, particularly among adolescents and young adults, and may predict further cognitive difficulties with ongoing alcohol use (White, 2003; Parada et al., 2011)....

...Prior studies have found that several neuronal stressors including low glucose, ammonia and brief hypoxia inhibit LTP via untimely activation of NMDARs (Zorumski and Izumi, 2012)....

...Mechanisms contributing to alcohol-induced memory blackouts are likely complex but thought to involve defects in the synaptic plasticity underlying learning and memory, particularly defects in long-term potentiation (LTP) (Abrahao et al., 2017; Chandler et al., 1998; Zorumski et al., 2014)....

...DISCUSSION Ethanol inhibits NMDARs (Izumi et al., 2005b; Zorumski et al., 2014; Abrahao et al., 2017) and inhibits NMDAR-dependent synaptic plasticity in hippocampal slices (Zorumski et al....

...Unexpectedly, we found that the LXR agonist but not ISRIB overcomes effects of ethanol on synaptic responses mediated by Nmethyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs)....
