Effect of ethanol on the cyclic AMP system in rat brain

L Volicer et al. J Stud Alcohol. 1977 Jan.

Abstract

The effects of ethanol on adenylate cyclase and phosphodiesterase activity in vitro, and on cyclic AMP, ATP and adenosine levels in vivo were studied. Ethanol appeared to affect the cyclic AMP system indirectly, probably through its effect on neurotransmitter release or on adenosine formation.
