Several review articles have been published on the neurobehavioral actions of
acetaldehyde and other ethanol metabolites as well as in major alcohol-related disorders …

Background: Previous studies have used c‐Fos‐like immunoreactivity (cFLI) to examine the
neuroanatomical location of cells that are activated in response to ethanol administration …

Background: The mechanism by which ethanol reduces cardiac output (CO) and blood
pressure (BP) in female rats remains unclear. We tested the hypothesis that enhancement of …

Background The purpose of this study was to determine whether gender influences the
association of alcohol drinking with blood pressure. Methods The subjects (43,810 healthy …

Previous reports from our laboratory have shown that ethanol elicits hypotension in female
but not in male rats and that this effect of ethanol is estrogen dependent (El-Mass MM and …

Ethanol consumption influences cardiovascular functions. In humans, acute consumption of
ethanol causes dose-dependent tachycardia. Our previous study showed that ethanol …

Background The molecular mechanisms of the acute hypotensive and indirectly assessed
cardiac depressant effect of ethanol (E t OH)‐evoked myocardial depression and …

Acute ethanol lowers blood pressure (BP) and cardiac output in proestrus and after chronic
estrogen (E2) replacement in ovariectomized (OVX) female rats. However, whether rapid …

Evidence suggests that male rats are protected against the hypotensive and myocardial
depressant effects of ethanol compared with females. We investigated whether E 2 modifies …

Background We documented the dependence of ethanol (EtOH)‐evoked myocardial
dysfunction on estrogen (E2), and our recent estrogen receptor (ER) blockade study, in …
