Abstract

AbstractThe transition from hedonic alcohol drinking to problematic drinking is a hallmark of alcohol use disorder that occurs only in a subset of drinkers. This transition is known to require long-lasting changes in the synaptic drive and the activity of striatal neurons expressing dopamine D1 receptor (D1R). The molecular mechanisms that generate vulnerability in some individuals to undergo the transition are less understood. Here, we report that the Parkinson’s-related protein leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) modulates striatal D1R function to affect the behavioral response to alcohol and the likelihood that mice transition to heavy, persistent alcohol drinking. Deletion of the Lrrk2 gene specifically from D1R-expressing neurons potentiates D1R signaling at the cellular and synaptic level, enhancing alcohol-related behaviors and drinking. Mice with cell-specific deletion of Lrrk2 are more prone to heavy alcohol drinking and consumption is insensitive to punishment. These findings identify a novel role for LRRK2 function in the striatum in promoting resilience against heavy and persistent alcohol drinking.
