Presents a study on brain responses of alcohol addicts upon seeing visual images of alcoholic beverages in Berlin, Germany. Uses of computed tomography (CT) scans in analyzing brain activity; Activities in the ventral putamen area upon presenting alcohol images; Applications of CT scans in ...
Brain Receptor, Alcohol Addiction Linked More Getty Images Researchers used an experimental compound to activate a receptor in the brain that plays a role in alcohol addiction. Activation of a specific receptor found in brain cells eases certain alcohol withdrawal sy...
whereas EtOH intake was statistically different between the two groups on the 8th day and later. After this confirmation of individual alcohol drinking behaviors inTH-BAC-Cremice, we bilaterally injected 7-week-old EtOH naiveTH-BAC-Cremales with AAV5-EF1α-DIO-hChR2-eYFP or AAV5-EF1α-DIO-...
Histone acetylation in neurons may thus be under the influence of acetate that is derived from alcohol4, with potential effects on alcohol-induced gene expression in the brain, and on behaviour5. Here, using in vivo stable-isotope labelling in mice, we show that the metabolism of alcohol ...

BEIJING, Jan. 13 (Xinhua) -- A recent international study found that different brain areas are associated with smoking and drinking which may shed light on the prevention and treatment of alcohol and nicotine abuse. Researchers from China's Fudan University, the University of Warwick in the U....
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a widespread disease leading to the deterioration of cognitive and other functions. Mechanisms by which alcohol affects the brain are not fully elucidated. Splicing constitutes a nuclear process of RNA maturation, which resu
Males consumed more alcohol and they also had larger brain volumes, and therefore the effect of sex was analyzed in more detail. Based on the results, the rate of change was of the same magnitude among sexes. In earlier studies, association between gray matter volume and alcohol use has been...
