Green tea as a potent antioxidant in alcohol intoxication.

abstract：:Excessive use of cocaine is known to induce changes in brain white and gray matter. It is unknown whether the extent of these changes is related to individual differences in vulnerability to cocaine addiction. One factor increasing vulnerability involves reduced expression of the serotonin transporter (5-HTT). Human s...

In order to understand better the interactive effects of ethanol (EtOH) and mazindol (MZ), we examined the effects of EtOH (1.2 g/kg) and MZ (5.0 mg/kg) given alone or in combination, on mouse behaviour. The results indicate that EtOH plus MZ induces ...
