(1) Alcoholic men and their sons (not daughters) apparently process information differently than non-alcoholic men and their sons. When they are relaxed and not processing information the brain waves of alcoholic men and their sons show more "fast wave" activity than non-alcoholic men and their sons. Evidently the alcoholics are not as relaxed as the non-alcoholics. (All this is at an early age in childhood, and is not true later on in adult life. (2) Whenever a stimulus, either visual or auditory, is presented to the subject, the brain processes that bit of information and a characteristic change in brain wave activity occurs. This change is called an Event Related Potential or ERP, one component of which is the P-3 or P-300 (same thing) wave form which normally indicates greater electrical activity. (3) Compared to their controls alcoholic men and their sons are deficient in P-3 wave activity. When a stimulus is presented there is less differences between before and after stimulus. (1) The deficiency in P-3 brain wave ERP can be used as a genetic marker to predict the likelihood that the male child will have a drinking problem. (2) Alcoholics tend to have lower amounts of the enzyme known as monoamine oxidase or MAO. This enzyme terminates dopamine and norepinephrine (excitory neurotransmitters). THIQ or Tetrahydroisoquinoline is a substance found in the brains of many alcoholics but not found in the brains of non-alcoholics. This substance is similar to heroin. In a real alcoholic some of the acetaldehyde is not broken down but is transferred to the brain as THIQ. Rats were tested. They were offered their choice of water or alcohol. They never drank alcohol. The water was taken away, and the rats would starve to death instead of drinking alcohol. When some THIQ was taken from the brain of a dead alcoholic and transplanted into the brain of the rats, the rats drank the alcohol to the complete exclusion of the water. They actually drank themselves to death." 110512 ... Death of a Rose That was a great piece hsg. How does the delivery to the synapses occur? Strictly blood based or processed through the liver as a delivery base vector? How does this gene get past the evoluntionary pass/fail test? What inhibitors are bypassed when the consumption of alcohol occurs? I would like to know. UCAG is our basis for life, as we know it today. Structure poisoned in this code? . 110512 ... Death of a Rose Codons & synthesis....sorta deal... Brainiac that I'm not. . 110512 ... hsg Idk. There's alcohol in my brain right_now as_a_matter_of_fact so I do not intend to try_and figure_this_out kiss_your_liver_goodbye 110512 what's it to you? who go blather from
