Membrane properties in behaviorally ethanol-dependent rats.
A way of quantifying alcohol behavioral dependence in rats previously developed was used in the present study to get more insight into the relations between neuronal membrane "fluidity", degree of dependence and membrane "sensitivity" (ethanol partitioning and disordering capacities).
