'Drunken' Synapse
Kluwer Academic / Plenum Publishers (Verlag)
978-0-306-46111-8 (ISBN)
This volume is divided into three sections, synaptic transmission, synaptic modulation, and synaptic plasticity, and deals with disorders brought on by alcohol. Some of the topics covered include: molecular targets underlying ethanol-mediated reduction of hormone release from neurohypophysial nerve terminals; alcohol and general anesthetic modulation of GABAA and neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors; alcohol and the 5-HT3 receptor, adenosine and ethanol; metabotropic hypothesis for ethanol sensitivity of GABAergic and glutamatergic central synapses; alcohol, memory, and molecules; novel forms and analyses of ethanol effects on synaptic plasticity; and ethanol suppression of hippocampal plasticity.
