Abstract in Portuguese
O objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar alterações comportamentais produzidas por etanol (ET) e estresse crônico imprevisível (ECI) em camundongos adolescentes (ADL) e adultos (AD), estudando a participação da enzima nNOS. Em camundongos AD também estudamos a atividade da nNOS via receptor NMDA na sensibilização cruzada entre estresse por imobilização (EI) e ET, utilizando dizocilpina (DZP) como pré-tratamento. Os resultados demonstraram haver sensibilização cruzada entre ECI e ET, tanto nos ADL quanto nos AD. Houve aumento da atividade da nNOS em hipocampo (HP) e córtex frontal (CF) de AD submetidos ao ECI. ET atenuou este efeito. A sensibilização cruzada em ADL aumentou atividade da nNOS em CF. O pré-tratamento com 7-nitroindazol inibiu sensibilização cruzada entre ECI e ET em ADL e AD, sinalizando a participação da nNOS. DZP potencializou sensibilização cruzada entre EI e ET e diminuiu a atividade da nNOS em HP e CF de animais submetidos ao EI. ECI e EI induzem sensibilização comportamental ao ET e nNOS participa na sensibilização cruzada entre ECI/EI e ET.

Abstract in English
The objective of this work was to investigate behavioral alterations produced by ethanol (ET) and chronic unpredictable stress (CUS) in adolescent (ADL) and adult (AD) mice, studying the nNOS enzyme activity. In AD mice was also studied the nNOS activity through the NMDA receptor in the cross-sensitization between immobilization stress (IS) and ET, by using dizocilpine (DZP) as a pretreatment. The results demonstrate cross-sensitization between CUS and ET in the ADL and AD mice. There was an increase in the nNOS activity in hippocampus (HP) and frontal cortex (FC) of AD submitted to CUS. This effect was attenuated by ET. The cross-sensitization in ADL increased the nNOS activity in FC. The 7-nitroindazole pretreatment inhibit cross-sensitization between CUS and ET in ADL and AD, signaling the nNOS participation. DZP potentiates cross-sensitization between IS and ET and decreased the nNOS activity in HP and FC of animals submitted to IS. CUS and IS induce behavioral sensitization to the ET and nNOS participate in the cross-sensitization between CUS/IS and ET.
