Chronic ethanol attenuates centrally-mediated hypotension elicited via alpha-2-adrenergic, but not I1-imidazoline, receptor activation in female rats
(East Carolina University, 2009-01-16)Aims—This study dealt with the effect of chronic ethanol administration on hemodynamic responses elicited by α2-adrenergic (α-methyldopa) or I1-imidazoline (rilmenidine) receptor activation in telemetered female rats. Main ... -
Estrogen-dependent enhancement of NO production in the nucleus tractus solitarius contributes to ethanol-induced hypotension in conscious female rats
(East Carolina University, 2009-02)Background- Our previous pharmacological and cellular studies showed that peripheral (cardiac and vascular) NOS-derived NO is implicated in the estrogen-dependent hypotensive action of ethanol in female rats. The objective ... -
Interaction of memantine with ethanol consumption and dopaminergic function in high ethanol preferring rats
(East Carolina University, 2009)N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists have been reported to decrease ethanol consumption in rodents, but these drugs often produce adverse side effects. Memantine is a neuroprotective and low-affinity, ...
