Suppression of ethanol intake following administration of dopamine-beta-hydroxylase inhibitors in rats

Suppression of ethanol intake following administration of dopamine-beta-hydroxylase inhibitors in rats. Amit, Z.; Levitan, D. E.; Lindros, K. O. (Cent. Res. Drug Dependence, Concordia Univ., Montreal, Que., Can.). Arch. Int. Pharmacodyn. Ther., 223(1), 114-19 (English) 1976. CODEN: AIPTAK. 26087-98-9 and 64-17-5 which are cas registry numbers of substances are two of reagents here. DOCUMENT TYPE: Journal CA Section: 4 (Toxicology) A comparison was made between the efficacy of action of dopamine-beta-hydroxylase [9013-38-1] and/or aldehyde dehydrogenase [9028-86-8] inhibition in suppressing voluntary ethanol [64-17-5] consumption in rats. Calcium carbimide [156-62-7], which caused the largest increase in blood acetaldehyde [75-07-0] levels following ethanol injections, was the least effective in reducing ethanol consumption, whereas FLA-63 [26087-98-9], which had a smaller effect on blood acetaldehyde levels, was the most potent suppressor of ethanol ingestion. Disulfiram [97-77-8], which inhibits both aldehyde dehydrogenase and dopamine-beta-hydroxylase, had an intermediate effect in terms of raising blood acetaldehyde levels and in suppressing ethanol intake. It is suggested that the inhibition of dopamine-beta-hydroxylase may be at least partly responsible for the suppression of ethanol intake seen following disulfiram administration, and that disruption of catecholamine synthesis may prove to be a more effective method for suppressing ethanol consumption. .

DOCUMENT TYPE: Patent CA Section: 19 (Fertilizers, Soils, and Plant Nutrition) Soil is desalinized by decreasing groundwater, leveling, loosening and drying the soil, adding a soil ameliorant, and leaching the soil with water. The effectiveness of the desalinization is increased by using Ca cyanamide (I) [156-62-7] as the soil improver and leaching the soil right after I addn.
