Brain GABA levels are reduced in alcoholic liver disease: A proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy study.

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...
