Repeated exposure to alcoholic beer does not induce long-lasting changes in alcohol self-administration and intake in Sardinian alcohol-preferring and Sardinian non-preferring rats.
AIMS Rats avidly consume non-alcoholic beer, and addition of alcohol to non-alcoholic beer may function as a medium to induce intake of large amounts of alcohol in rats. The present study investigated whether Sardinian alcohol-preferring (sP) and Sardinian non-preferring (sNP) rats, initially exposed to non-alcoholic beer, and subsequently to non-alcoholic beer containing increasing concentrati...
متن کاملTryptophan metabolism in male Sardinian alcohol-preferring (sP) and -non-preferring (sNP) rats.
Parameters of tryptophan (Trp) and related metabolism were compared in male Sardinian alcohol-preferring (sP) and -non-preferring (sNP) rats. Liver Trp pyrrolase activity was 38-58% higher in sP than in sNP rats, and this was associated with a greater expression of the enzyme mRNA as measured by multiprobe oligonucleotide solution hybridization. Moderately (about 10-19%), but significantly, low...
متن کاملCircadian drinking pattern of Sardinian alcohol-preferring rats.
The present study was designed to assess the temporal pattern of ethanol intake over a 24 h period in selectively bred, Sardinian alcohol-preferring (sP) rats. Ethanol intake occurred under the two-bottle, free choice regimen. sP rats consumed ethanol in three distinct peaks, rather regularly distributed over the 12 h dark phase of the light-dark cycle and positively correlated with food intake...
متن کاملConstant absolute ethanol intake by Sardinian alcohol-preferring rats independent of ethanol concentrations.
The present study was designed to evaluate ethanol drinking behaviour in Sardinian alcohol-preferring (sP) and Sardinian alcohol-non-preferring (sNP) rats in the presence of different ethanol concentrations. Ethanol intake was tested under the two-bottle, free-choice regimen and continuous access schedule. Ethanol-naive sP and sNP rats were initially given ethanol solution at the standard, cons...
متن کاملR(+)-Baclofen, but Not S(−)-Baclofen, Alters Alcohol Self-Administration in Alcohol-Preferring Rats
Racemic baclofen [(±)-baclofen] has repeatedly been reported to suppress several -alcohol-motivated behaviors, including alcohol drinking and alcohol -self-administration, in rats and mice. Recent data suggested that baclofen may have bidirectional, stereospecific effects, with the more active enantiomer, R(+)-baclofen, suppressing alcohol intake and the less active enantiomer, S(-)-baclofen, s...
