Comparison of effect of ethanol on N-methyl-D-aspartate- and GABA-gated currents from acutely dissociated neurons: absence of regional differences in sensitivity to ethanolHugh E Criswell
Bowles Center for Alcohol Studies, Chapel Hill, North Carolina 27599 7178, USA
J Pharmacol Exp Ther 304:192-9. 2003..These data suggest that the regional differences in the effect of ethanol observed in vivo are not due to a differential action of ethanol at the postsynaptic NMDA or GABAA receptor subtypes...
Macrokinetic analysis of blockade of NMDA-gated currents by substituted alcohols, alkanes and ethersHugh E Criswell
Department of Anesthesiology, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC 27599 7178, USA
Brain Res 1015:107-13. 2004..These data indicate that a wide variety of volatile hydrocarbon based CNS depressants produce a similar inhibition of NMDA-gated currents and that the kinetics for these agents are inconsistent with an open channel block...
Brain regional differences in the effect of ethanol on GABA release from presynaptic terminalsHugh E Criswell
Bowles Center for Alcohol Studies, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC 27599, USA
J Pharmacol Exp Ther 326:596-603. 2008..This regional difference is consistent with earlier in vivo studies in which ethanol affected neural activity and sensitivity to GABA in some, but not all, brain sites...
A conceptualization of integrated actions of ethanol contributing to its GABAmimetic profile: a commentaryHugh E Criswell
Center for Alcohol Studies, UNC Neuroscience Center, Department of Psychiatry, University of North Carolina, School of Medicine, Chapel Hill, NC 27599 7178, USA
Neuropsychopharmacology 30:1407-25. 2005..Thus, an integration of these consequences induced by ethanol is proposed to provide a logical basis for its in vivo GABAmimetic profile...
Changes in the effect of isoflurane on N-methyl-D-aspartic acid-gated currents in cultured cerebral cortical neurons with time in culture: evidence for subunit specificityZhen Ming
Anesthesiology, Bowles Center for Alcohol Studies, School of Medicine, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 27599, USA
Anesthesiology 97:856-67. 2002..This effect of isoflurane was subunit dependent with the NR2B-containing receptors more sensitive to isoflurane than the NR2A-containing receptors. A potent tachyphylaxis occurred after brief exposure to isoflurane...
The role of protein kinase A in the ethanol-induced increase in spontaneous GABA release onto cerebellar Purkinje neuronsM Katherine Kelm
Department of Pharmacology, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC 27599 7178, USA
J Neurophysiol 100:3417-28. 2008..Overall, these results suggest that PKA activation is necessary for ethanol to increase spontaneous GABA release...
The PLC/IP 3 R/PKC pathway is required for ethanol-enhanced GABA releaseM Katherine Kelm
Department of Pharmacology, School of Medicine, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC 27599 7365, USA
Neuropharmacology 58:1179-86. 2010..Overall, these results suggest that activation of the PLC/IP(3)R/PKC pathway is necessary for ethanol to increase spontaneous GABA release from presynaptic terminals onto Purkinje cells...
Calcium release from presynaptic internal stores is required for ethanol to increase spontaneous gamma-aminobutyric acid release onto cerebellum Purkinje neuronsM Katherine Kelm
Bowles Center for Alcohol Studies, CB 7178, Thurston Bowles Building, Chapel Hill, NC 27599 7178, USA
J Pharmacol Exp Ther 323:356-64. 2007..Overall, these data suggest that calcium release from presynaptic internal stores plays a vital role in the mechanism of ethanol-enhanced spontaneous GABA release at the interneuron-Purkinje cell synapse...
Competing presynaptic and postsynaptic effects of ethanol on cerebellar purkinje neuronsZhen Ming
Department of Psychiatry, Center for Alcohol Studies, UNC Neuroscience Center, University of North Carolina School of Medicine, Chapel Hill, North Carolina 27599-7178, USA
Alcohol Clin Exp Res 30:1400-7. 2006..Specifically, ethanol acts presynaptically to increase inhibition by release of GABA, while simultaneously acting postsynaptically to increase intrinsic excitatory drive...
Genetic essential tremor in gamma-aminobutyric acidA receptor alpha1 subunit knockout miceJason E Kralic
Department of Pharmacology, University of North Carolina School of Medicine, Chapel Hill, North Carolina 27599 7178, USA
J Clin Invest 115:774-9. 2005..This genetic animal model elucidates a mechanism of GABAergic dysfunction in the major motor pathway and potential targets for pharmacotherapy of essential tremor...
Cytokine involvement in stress may depend on corticotrophin releasing factor to sensitize ethanol withdrawal anxietyDarin J Knapp
Bowles Center for Alcohol Studies, University of North Carolina School of Medicine, Chapel Hill, NC 27599, USA
Brain Behav Immun 25:S146-54. 2011..Interrupting this potential glial-neuronal interaction could provide a novel means by which to alter the development of emotional states induced by stress that predict relapse in the alcoholic...
PKCγ is required for ethanol-induced increases in GABA(A) receptor α4 subunit expression in cultured cerebral cortical neuronsDavid F Werner
Bowles Center for Alcohol Studies, University of North Carolina School of Medicine, Chapel Hill, NC 27599, USA
J Neurochem 116:554-63. 2011..We conclude that PKCγ regulates ethanol-induced alterations in α4-containing GABA(A) receptors...

Department of Psychiatry, UNC School of Medicine, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC 27599 7178, USA
Brain Res Brain Res Rev 48:57-73. 2005..Despite an extraordinary legacy from studies of the neurobiology of this treatment, a host of unknowns remain that will inspire future investigations...
