Post-mortem neuropathological and in vivo neuroimaging methods have demonstrated the
vulnerability of the inferior colliculus to the sequelae of thiamine deficiency as occurs in …

Background: Ethanol has a broad range of actions on many neurotransmitter systems. The
depressant actions of ethanol in the brain are related in part to facilitation of γ‐aminobutyric …

Glut1 is a specific transporter system that mediates glucose transfer across the blood–brain
barrier (BBB). Although the main location of Glut1 is in the capillary endothelium of the brain …

Regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) changes were studied with high resolution SPECT and
99 mTc-HMPAO in six healthy males during basal condition and after they had rapidly …

In order to determine potential rapid changes in extracellular dopamine (DA) and 5-
hydroxytryptamine (serotonin, 5-HT) during the first 5–10 min after ethanol, intracerebral …

Alterations in gene expression are thought to help mediate certain effects of alcohol in the
brain. We have analyzed the expression of approximately 24,000 genes using …

Alcohol consumption causes neurocognitive deficits, neuronal injury, and
neurodegeneration. At the cellular level, alcohol abuse causes oxidative damage to …

The effects of ethanol on acoustically stimulated blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD)
signal response in healthy humans was examined with echo planar functional magnetic …

Cessation of ethanol administration in ethanol-dependent rats results in an ethanol
withdrawal (ETX) syndrome, including audiogenic seizures (AGS). The inferior colliculus (IC) …

The functional effects of the voluntary consumption of ethanol in rats were investigated using
the quantitative autoradiographic 2‐[14C] deoxyglucose method for measurement of rates of …
