Targeted CRFR1 knockdown revealed increased binge drinking in mice, indicating divergent roles along the anterior-posterior axis.

CRFR1 knockdown in the posterior lateral hypothalamus led to increased alcohol consumption in mice, suggesting its regulatory role.
Total alcohol consumption was negatively correlated with the location of CRFR1 knockdown along the LH axis, showing regional specificity.
Knockdown did not affect water intake or body weight, indicating that the increase in alcohol consumption was not due to other factors.
Increased anxiety-like behavior was observed with CRFR1 knockdown, highlighting its complex role in binge drinking and emotional regulation.

Ritchie et al. (2025) studied this question.
