Year: 2006
Type: article
Abstract: This article summarizes the proceedings of a symposium presented at the 2005 annual meeting of the Research Society on Alcoholism in Santa Barbara, California, USA. The organizer and chair was L. Judson Chandler. The presentations were (1) Chronic Ethanol Exposure, N‐Methyl‐d‐Aspartate (NMDA) Receptor Dynamics, and Withdrawal Hyperexcitability, by Adam Hendricson, Regina Maldve, and Richard Morrisett; (2) Ethanol‐Induced Synaptic Targeting of NMDA Receptors Is Associated With Enhanced Postsynaptic Density‐95 Clustering and Spine Size, by Judson Chandler and Ezekiel Carpenter‐Hyland; (3) Presynaptic and Postsynaptic Alterations in the Nucleus Accumbens Following Chronic Alcohol Exposure, by Feng Zhou, Youssef Sari, and Richard Bell; and (4) An Active Role for Accumbens Homer2 Expression in Alcohol‐Induced Neural Plasticity, by Karen Szumlinski.
