This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), issued by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), encourages Research Project Grant (R01) applications proposing to conduct studies on the functional relationships between alcohol abuse, circadian rhythms and sleep disorders. Recent investigations in both humans and animal models have suggested possible connections between circadian processes and alcohol intake, with alcohol affecting the expression of clock genes and polymorphisms in these genes influencing levels of ethanol intake. Furthermore, there is considerable evidence that acute and chronic alcohol consumption disrupts patterns of sleep. These disruptions can persist long after cessation of drinking in abstinent alcoholics and may be an important factor in relapse. Disordered sleep, particularly in adolescence, may also be a factor in the development of alcohol dependence. However, despite the clear connections between alcohol and sleep disorders, the precise mechanisms involved in this interaction remain incompletely understood. The objective of this FOA is therefore to promote research in both humans and animal models on the mechanisms underlying the relationships between alcohol, circadian rhythms and sleep disorders with the ultimate goal of improved understanding of the causes of and treatments for alcoholism. NIAAA strongly encourages collaborative efforts between experts in circadian and/or sleep research and established alcohol investigators to facilitate the development of proposals incorporating both areas of research.
Related Funding Opportunity: Investigators who are interested in proposing exploratory and developmental research projects should submit applications in response to the partner FOA of identical scientific scope (), which uses the NIH R21 grant mechanism.
Background
A wide variety of investigations has shown that both acute and chronic alcohol consumption cause sleep disturbances, with virtually every type of sleep problem observed. These sleep changes may persist for months or even years of abstinence, suggesting that alcohol abuse may have enduring effects on circadian and/or homeostatic sleep processes. Alcohol-induced sleep disruptions may particularly harmful to recovery from alcohol abuse/addiction because they are a significant cause of relapse in dependent individuals, who frequently self-medicate with alcohol to induce sleep. Studies indicate that alcohol can also aggravate sleep disordered breathing and further increase the decrements in cognitive performance resulting from sleep deprivation. Mechanistically, there is some evidence from human MRI studies that losses of gray and/or white matter are associated with sleep deficits in alcoholics but the precise causal relationship is unclear. Persistently altered neurochemistry may play a role in alcohol-related sleep disturbances as well. For example, chronic alcohol intake can modify wake-modulating cholinergic projections from the basal forebrain and alter sleep-promoting GABAergic function. Additional studies have suggested links among alcohol, adenosinergic neurotransmission and sleep disruption. Furthermore, recent investigations suggest that altered levels of brain cytokines like Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha may also play a role in alcoholism-related insomnia. However, despite these intriguing results, the precise relationships between alcohol-related sleep disorders and the observed alterations in brain structure and neurochemistry remain incompletely understood, and it is unclear whether abstinence leads to a normalization of these measures.
Sleep has been shown to involve both a circadian component which regulates sleep timing and a homeostatic aspect modulating sleep pressure. Available evidence suggests that alcohol abuse may affect both aspects of sleep, as indices of circadian rhythms and sleep homeostasis have been shown to be altered significantly in abstinent alcoholics. The mechanistic connections between circadian rhythms and sleep are beginning to be understood, but homeostatic regulation is less explored.
Alcohol consumption by pregnant women can result in Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder, which includes a variety of neurodevelopmental effects. Long-term disruptions in circadian rhythms and sleep are seen frequently in FASD children, and can lead to fragmented activity rhythms later in life, with alterations in entrainment and period. These disturbances may reflect damage to either cells in the SCN, its input pathways or alteration of the properties of the biochemical circadian oscillator.
Alternatively, prenatal exposure to ethanol can impact orexinergic neurons in the hypothalamus that regulate wakefulness. Pediatric sleep disturbances may have some relationship to the cognitive deficits in these children, so improving their sleep may ameliorate these deficits. An additional concern is that sleep disruption in children can predict sleep problems in adolescence, which are frequently associated with alcohol abuse. Alcohol exposure during critical developmental periods in animal models also results in long-lasting changes in sleep patterns that may play a role in later increases in voluntary self-administration.
Finally, recent studies have suggested possible connections between circadian processes and alcohol intake. For example, the genes that regulate circadian function have been shown to influence a variety of ethanol effects, including its rewarding properties, and thus may influence vulnerability to alcohol dependence. Accordingly, human polymorphisms in these genes can affect alcohol consumption, either directly or in combination with various stresses. Furthermore, voluntary ethanol intake in rodents is higher in the night phase, which may indicate that its rewarding properties are greater at that time. Additionally, altered circadian properties in lines of animals bred selectively for ethanol preference suggest a possible genetic linkage between ethanol intake and circadian rhythms. In these scenarios, variations in clock genes may lead to disruptions in clock-regulated physiological processes, ultimately resulting in altered alcohol intake. Alternatively, this connection could involve non-circadian functions of these genes. Alcohol can also modify the expression of clock genes and the rhythmic behaviors they control. Additionally, ethanol interferes with circadian rhythms and their resetting in response to environmental stimuli, which can eventually lead to desynchrony and disruption of rhythms, with a broad array of adverse health consequences, including susceptibility to relapse. Determining the mechanistic basis for these connections between the circadian system and alcohol consumption may eventually aid in treating alcoholism.
Thus the available evidence reveals many reciprocal interactions between alcohol, sleep and circadian rhythms, some of which may have profound impact on health. Previous studies have suggested some of the mechanisms involved, but the precise relationships remain incompletely understood. Research that addresses this issue, in either humans or animal models amenable to genetic and/or mechanistic analyses is therefore solicited. Research on these effects across the lifespan is encouraged, as restricting studies to a small number of time points may not permit an accurate assessment of the extent, trajectory or potential reversibility of the changes being monitored.
