Gene Information
Original ID1:D28560
Fold Change:2.7
Tissue:Amygdala
Dataset Information
Name:11772933
Method:Microarray
Tissue:Frontal cortex and amygdala
Phenotype:Ethanol response
Publication:Rimondini et al FASEB J. (2002) Long-lasting increase in voluntary ethanol consumption and transcriptional regulation in the rat brain after intermittent exposure to alcohol. PubMed
Summary:Here we demonstrate that rats subjected to repeated cycles of intoxication and withdrawal develop a marked and long-lasting increase in voluntary ethanol intake. Exposure-induced but not spontaneous alcohol intake is antagonized by acamprosate, a compound clinically effective in human alcoholism. Expression analysis of cingulate cortex and amygdala reveals a set of long-term up-regulated transcripts in this model. Here lists the gene expression changes 3 wk after termination of 7 wk of intermittent ethanol exposure. Fold change values are ethanol exposed vs. control rats.
