[Free amino acids in the brain in moderate alcoholization of animals and administration of ethanolamine]. 1990

S Iu Ostrovskiĭ, and B I Gorenshteĭn, and I L Bykov

Content of free amino acids was studied in rat brain after moderately-acute alcohol intoxication (Ig/kg of body mass), after administration of ethanolamine (100 mg/kg), phosphoethanolamine (230 mg/kg) and/or combination of these drugs with ethanol. Ethanolamine, as distinct from phosphoethanolamine, removed the effects of alcohol. Structural similarity of ethanol and ethanolamine was apparently responsible for their antagonism.

D001923	Brain Chemistry	Changes in the amounts of various chemicals (neurotransmitters, receptors, enzymes, and other metabolites) specific to the area of the central nervous system contained within the head. These are monitored over time, during sensory stimulation, or under different disease states.	Chemistry, Brain,Brain Chemistries,Chemistries, Brain
D004983	Ethanolamines	AMINO ALCOHOLS containing the ETHANOLAMINE; (-NH2CH2CHOH) group and its derivatives.	Aminoethanols
D000431	Ethanol	A clear, colorless liquid rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and distributed throughout the body. It has bactericidal activity and is used often as a topical disinfectant. It is widely used as a solvent and preservative in pharmaceutical preparations as well as serving as the primary ingredient in ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES.

D000596	Amino Acids	Organic compounds that generally contain an amino (-NH2) and a carboxyl (-COOH) group. Twenty alpha-amino acids are the subunits which are polymerized to form proteins.	Amino Acid,Acid, Amino,Acids, Amino
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
