Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Moderate Alcohol Consumption on the Central Nervous System

TL;DR: The cognitive effects of acute and chronic moderate intake of ethanol is reviewed, and although a number of studies have noted a measurable diminution in neuropsychologic parameters in habitual consumers of moderate amounts of ethanol, others have not found such changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

N‐Methyl‐D‐Aspartate Receptors and Ethanol: Inhibition of Calcium Flux and Cyclic GMP Production

TL;DR: Measurements of calcium uptake and cyclic GMP production by cerebellar granule cells grown in primary culture demonstrated that ethanol preferentially inhibited N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate (NMDA) receptor‐gated cation channel function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ethanol withdrawal seizures and the NMDA receptor complex.

TL;DR: The present data show that chronic ethanol treatment results in an increase in the number of NMDA receptor/ionophore complexes in the hippocampus, a brain area known to be associated with ethanol withdrawal seizure activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toward understanding the genetics of alcohol drinking through transcriptome meta-analysis.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates the use of a microarray meta-analysis to analyze a behavioral phenotype (in this case, alcohol preference) and a congenic strain for identification of cis regulation and several functional groups were found to be significantly overrepresented.
Journal ArticleDOI

The multiMiR R package and database: integration of microRNA–target interactions along with their disease and drug associations

TL;DR: MultiMiR is presented, a new miRNA–target interaction R package and database, which includes several novel features not available in existing R packages and was used to generate testable hypotheses that were pursued experimentally.
