title: Ethanol and gene expression in brain.
abstract: This article represents the proceedings of a symposium at the 2000 ISBRA Meeting in Yokohama, Japan. The chairs were Izuru Matusmoto and Peter A. Wilce. The presentations were (1) GABA receptor subunit expression in the human alcoholic brain, by Tracey Buckley and Peter Dodd; (2) NMDAR gene expression during ethanol addiction, by Jorg Puzke, Rainer Spanagel, Walther Zieglgansberger, and Gerald Wolf; (3) Differentially expressed gene in the nucleus accumbens from ethanol-administered rat, by Shuangying Leng; (4) Expression of a novel gene in the alcoholic brain, by Peter A. Wilce; and (5) Investigations of haplotypes of the dopamine D2-receptor gene in alcoholics, by Hans Rommelspacher, Ulrich Finckh, and Lutz G. Schmidt.
