Abstrakt:	Background: In humans, early life stress (ELS) is associated with an increased risk for developing both alcohol use disorder (AUD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We previously used an infant footshock model that produces stress-enhanced fear learning (SEFL) in rats and mice and increases aversion-resistant alcohol drinking in rats to explore this shared predisposition. The goal of the current study was to extend this model of comorbid PTSD and AUD to male and female C57BL/6J mice. Methods: Acute ELS was induced using 15 footshocks on postnatal day (PND) 17. In adulthood, alcohol drinking behavior was tested in one of three two-bottle choice drinking paradigms. In continuous access, mice were given 24 h access to 5% or 10% ethanol and water for five consecutive drinking sessions each. In limited access drinking in the dark, mice were given 2 h of access to 15% ethanol and water across 15 sessions 3 h into the dark cycle. In intermittent access, mice were presented with 20% ethanol and water Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, for four consecutive weeks. In a fifth week of intermittent access drinking, increasing concentrations of quinine (10 mg/L, 100 mg/L, and 200 mg/L) were added to the ethanol to test aversion-resistant drinking. Intermittent access drinking was tested with and without a period of adolescent drinking (PND 35). Results: Infant footshock did not alter drinking in the continuous or limited access tasks. Adult consumption and preference were lower in the intermittent access task when adolescent drinking was included and there were ELS-induced differences in consumption of quinine-adulterated ethanol in females. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that infant footshock followed by a period of adolescent drinking is a viable model of comorbid PTSD and AUD in rats and mice.
