Dopamine and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor expression in peripheral blood of patients undergoing alcohol withdrawal.

17 Mar 2007 The aim of the present pilot study was to explore whether a change in cerebral receptors can be demonstrated in human peripheral blood lymphocytes during alcohol withdrawal. Dopamine (D1 and D2) and NMDA (1 and 2B) receptor expressions of 14 male ... Read more...

The effect of oral consumption of perchlorate, alone and in combination with ethanol, on plasma thyroid hormone and brain catecholamine concentrations in the rat.

30 Oct 2006 Literature has reported a controversy concerning the effects of the environmental pollutant perchlorate on pertinent physiological systems. However, no research to date has evaluated the effect of concomitant consumption of perchlorate and an ... Read more...

Changes in the beta-endorphin plasma level after repeated treatment with acamprosate in rats selectively bred for high and low alcohol preference.

2 Nov 2005 The aim of this study was to evaluate the beta-endorphin (beta-endorphin) plasma level in Warsaw Low Preferring (WLP) and Warsaw high-preferring (WHP) rats after repeated administration of acamprosate, one of most effective drug in the treatment of ... Read more...
