Experts address the role of neuromodulators and opiate receptors in alcohol and drug dependence. They present innovative research techniques, new discoveries, and possible clinical correlates that allow for a much greater understanding of the clinical phenomena surrounding alcohol and narcotic use. Included in this thought-provoking volume are a comprehensive review of the current knowledge of the endogenous opiates, their interactions with the opiate receptors, and the potential relationship that these substances might have in promoting the development of dependence, tolerance, and withdrawal; the translation of the basic physiologic findings occuring during withdrawal to treatment of withdrawal symptoms in the clinical setting; and a physiological explanation for the rationale of using clonidine and naltrexone to accelaerate the detoxification process without undue discomfort.

This valuable book serves as a forum for the communication of ideas between all segments of the research and treatment communities. Scientists and clinicians examine the exciting endeavors in science that have produced medical knowledge applicable to a wide spectrum of treatment and prevention efforts. The topics--from studies on the molecular actions of alcohol to clinical studies with human subjects--underscore the complexity of alcoholism and focus on both the biological and environmental determinants contributing to the etiology of the disorder. Contributors from the fields of biology, chemistry, neurology, child health, gastroenterology, genetics, psychiatry, and numerous other specialties describe the fascinating collaborative ventures that have enhanced the opportunities to apply the latest technology and medical knowledge to studies of alcohol's actions and alcoholism. This need to understand alcoholism at all levels of biologic and social complexity is highlighted throughout this scholarly volume. Alcohol Research From Bench to Bedside contains the published proceedings of a symposium sponsored by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism in 1987, as part of the 100th anniversary celebration of the National Institutes of Health.
