“…Some lines of mice carrying a constitutive 5-HT 1B receptor mutation demonstrate increased ethanol consumption compared to wild types (Crabbe et al, 1996;Phillips et al, 1999;however, see Risinger et al, 1999;Bouwknecht et al, 2000;Gorwood et al, 2002 for conflicting reports). Other serotonin receptors, including 5-HT 3 R (Engel et al, 1998;Engel and Allan, 1999;Rodd-Henricks et al, 2003), 5-HT 2A R Maurel et al, 1999;however, see Wilson et al, 2000;Blakley et al, 2001 for conflicting reports), and 5-HT 2C R (Maurel et al, 1999;Tomkins et al, 2002) also modulate ethanol ingestion. Finally, multiple lines of evidence demonstrate that SSRIs affect multiple responses to ethanol ingestion, including overall ethanol ingestion, taste aversion, and ethanol discrimination (Gulley et al, 1995;Gardell et al, 1997;Risinger, 1997;Lamb and Jarbe, 2001).…”
