Hypotheses

Alcohol effects only mediated by NMDA Antagonism

Metabolic Changes induced by Alcohol and Dextromethorphane are similar.

Chronic Alcohol consumption leads to Hypersensitivity of the NMDA System (Animal Model) Metabolic Changes more marked in alcoholics compared to controls.

Global Reduction of CMRglc, v.a. occipital und cerebella

(Wang et al. 2002)

LMU

Summary:

No significant differences in rCMRglc between alcoholics and controls under placebo conditionAlcohol-like effects following dextromethorphan – challenge in controls and alcoholics(controls > alcoholics)

Acute effects of alcohol similar to findings in previous studies (Volkow et al. 1990, Wang 2000)

LMU

Summary:

While in controls dextromethorphan induces a slight increase in rCMRglc (similar to ketamine), in alcoholics rCMRglc decreases. Contrary to our hypothesis concerning sensitivity of the NMDA-System: Differences between alcoholics and controls were qualitativ not quantitativ. In healthy controls dextromethorphan shows a spezific pattern, similar to ketamine but not other drugs of abuse.
