title: [The effect of acute alcoholization on the neuronal activity of the normal ventromedial hypothalamus and in pharmacological actions on the brain monoaminergic and opiate systems].
abstract: In experiments on white outbred male rats the specificity was studied of the influence and mechanisms of action of acute alcoholization (30%-solution of ethanol, intraperitoneally, 0.7 g/kg) on the activity of functionally different neurones of the ventromedial hypothalamus. Experimental results showed that the neurones, the activity of which lowered after saturation (I-st type), increased the discharges frequency at administration of ethanol. Nerve cells, the activity of which increased (II-nd type) and did not change (III-nd type) after saturation, had inhibitory character of reaction in response to alcoholization. The increase of serotonin content in the brain elicited by intraperitoneal administration of 5-OTPh (50 mg/kg) blockaded the action of ethanol on the nerve cells of the I-st type and did not change the effect of the alcohol on the neurones of the II-nd and III-nd types. Preliminary lowering of the noradrenaline level in the brain (disulphiram, intraperitoneally, 100 mg/kg) and blockade of opiate receptors (nalorphine, 5 mg/kg) fully eliminated ethanol influence on the activity of all types of neurones.
