Possible Interaction: Ethanol and Alcohols

“AimExcess consumption of alcohol leads to impaired cognition and decision making; hence, alcohol-containing products and advertising contain warning messages about the adverse effects of excess drinking.”

“Nonoxidative metabolism of short-chain alcohols, including phospholipase D-mediated synthesis of alcohol phospholipids, and the synthesis of fatty acid alcohol esters are additional mechanisms by which alcohols can affect membrane structure and compromise cell function.”

“Although the addition of alcohol alone did not induce neurite development, both the NGF-induced increase in neurite length and the frequency of neurite-bearing cells were enhanced by alcohols.”

“However, the bioactive compounds in some alcohol-containing beverages might mitigate the negative effects of alcohol.”

“Widespread availability of tobacco and alcohol products contributed to the use and addiction of tobacco and alcohol.”

“… alcohol brand/product advertising exposure led to a relative increase of 1.13 (95% CI 1.01 - 1.28) in the odds of …. a participant who was exposed to advertisements via seven different channels was 2.08 times more likely to have used alcohol in the past … single channel).”

“Tolerance limits for ethanol and PG as proposed by the EMA are frequently exceeded in polymedicated neonates and infants due to the cumulative effect of these alcohols.”

“It was shown that these alcohols could suppress the phagocytic activity of monocytes in a concentration-dependent manner and when combined with ethanol , they caused a further decrease in phagocytosis.”

“The statement that ‘‘the concentration of higher alcohols in unrecorded alcohols is significantly lower than in commercial alcohol ’’ can be disputed for the following reasons.”

“The presence of alcohol enhanced the impairment of RBC deformability caused by subjecting cells to 100 Pa shear stress for 300 s, with significant differences from control being observed at higher concentrations of all four alcohols.”
