Brain protein links moncler sale alcohol and anxiety Symptoms mean and What you should do nexta brain protein linked to emotion and fear may explain why some people who suffer high levels of anxiety may be at greater risk of alcoholism, a study has found.The research could help in the development of treatments for both anxiety and alcoholism.Scientists at the university of illinois at chicago(Uic)Found that rats selectively bred to have a preference for alcohol(P rats), had higher anxiety levels and consumed more alcohol than rats that had no preference for alcohol(Np rats).Tests also showed that the alcohol loving p rats displayed lower levels of a protein, called creb, in parts of the brain associated with emotion, fear and anxiety, compared with their teetotal np cousins.One function of the creb protein is to regulate the brain's production of a molecule that regulates anxiety and alcoholdrinking behaviours.For the p rats, alcohol consumption eased anxiety and increased creb levels.But alcohol did not have a similar effect on the temperate rats.The findings are intriguing, according to dr tingkai li, director of the national institute on alcohol abuse and alcoholism which supported the research. "These experiments help us address questions about the potential role that anxiety might play in human alcoholism", he said.Rats' anxiety levels were measured with a piece of apparatus consisting of two open arms and two closed arms connected to a central platform.Rats who spend more time in the closed arms were judged to be more anxious.The researchers showed that chemically stimulating creb activity in the parts of the brain associated with anxiety could decrease the anxiety and alcohol intake in p rats.And chemically blocking creb prompted np rats to display anxious behaviour and turn to alcohol.Lead researcher subhash pandey said that the p rats appear to selfmedicate with alcohol to alleviate anxiety, a behaviour often seen in humans.The research suggests a deficit of the creb brain protein in people who are genetically predisposed to anxiety and alcohol drinking behaviours, he said. "This is the first direct evidence that a hereditary deficiency of creb protein is associated with high anxiety and alcoholdrinking behaviours,"Said dr pandey, who is director of neuroscience alcoholism research at the uic college of medicine.Results of the study are published in this month's issue of the journal of clinical investigation.Adfero ltd Health azsdiseases and moncler jacket conditions a zexaminations and tests a zmedicines a zslideshows azsupport groups a zsurgical and cosmetic procedures a zvideos a z The materials in this web site are in no way intended to replace the professional medical care, advice, diagnosis or treatment of a doctor.The web site does not have answers to all problems.Answers to specific problems may not apply to everyone.If you notice medical symptoms or hotswing feel ill, you should consult your doctor for further information see our terms and conditions.
