Ethanol causes long-term changes in the toll-like receptor (TLR) system, promoting activation of neuroinflammation pathways. Alcohol use during pregnancy causes neuroinflammatory processes in the fetus; this can lead to the development of symptoms of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD). Our study has shown that prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) induced long-term changes in the TLR system genes (Tlr3, Tlr4, Ticam, Hmgb1, cytokine genes) in the forebrain cortex of rat pups. Administration of rifampicin (Rif), which can reduce the level of pro-inflammatory mediators in various pathological conditions of the nervous system, normalized the altered expression level of the studied TLR system genes. This suggests that Rif can prevent the development of persistent neuroinflammatory events in the forebrain cortex of rat pups caused by dysregulation in the TLR system.
