Journal ArticleDOI
Sites of alcohol and volatile anaesthetic action on GABA(A) and glycine receptors.
S. John Mihic,S. John Mihic,Qing Ye,Marilee J. Wick,Marilee J. Wick,Vladimir V. Koltchine,Matthew D. Krasowski,Suzanne E. Finn,Maria Paola Mascia,C. Fernando Valenzuela,Kirsten K. Hanson,Eric P. Greenblatt,R. Adron Harris,R. Adron Harris,Neil L. Harrison +14 more
TL;DR: Observations support the idea that anaesthetics exert a specific effect on these ion-channel proteins, and allow for the future testing of specific hypotheses of the action of anaesthetic action.
Journal ArticleDOI
The anesthetic mechanism of urethane: The effects on neurotransmitter-gated ion channels
Koji Hara,R. Adron Harris +1 more
TL;DR: At concentrations close to anesthetic 50% effective concentration, urethane had modest effects on all channels tested, suggesting the lack of a single predominant target for its action, which may account for its usefulness as a veterinary anesthetic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gene expression in human alcoholism: microarray analysis of frontal cortex.
Joanne Marie Lewohl,Joanne Marie Lewohl,Long Wang,Michael F. Miles,Li Zhang,Peter R. Dodd,R. Adron Harris +6 more
TL;DR: These gene expression changes suggest a mechanism for the loss of cerebral white matter in alcoholics as well as alterations that may lead to the neurotoxic actions of ethanol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nicotine addiction and comorbidity with alcohol abuse and mental illness.
John A. Dani,R. Adron Harris +1 more
TL;DR: The World Health Organization estimates that one-third of the global adult population smokes, and death resulting from tobacco use continues to rise in developing countries, because tobacco use is on the rise in developed countries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of gaseous anesthetics nitrous oxide and xenon on ligand-gated ion channels: Comparison with isoflurane and ethanol
TL;DR: The results suggest that NMDA receptors and nACh receptors composed of &bgr;2 subunits are likely targets for nitrous oxide and xenon, which are distinct from that of isoflurane or ethanol.
