Prenatal Ethanol Exposure and Adolescent Stress Are Associated, in Male Rats, with a Compulsive-Like Phenotype and Alterations in Microbiota Composition and Neuroimmune Gene Expression.

Prenatal ethanol exposure (PEE) alters neurobehavioral function, yet the factors associated with these effects, particularly in interaction with stress, remain poorly understood. We examined whether combined exposure to PEE and adolescent restraint stress altered compulsive-like behavior and, in the sex showing the cle...
