| Chryst_al_Mighty User Info... | Alcohol Intoxication Gene Found In Worms - Finding May Lead to Sobriety Pill http://content.health.msn.com/content/article/78/95777.htm McIntire's team spent six years looking for genes that affect roundworm responses to alcohol. At last they found a gene called slo-1, which controls a chemical message circuit in the brain. That circuit, the BK channel, is also found throughout the human body. "We have found that alcohol acts on this channel in nerve cells to cause neural depression [slowing of nerve function] and intoxication," McIntire says in a news release. "We would expect that the same process functions in humans." The implication is a drug might be found that could change the effect of alcohol on the BK channel. That might quickly sober someone up after a bout of drinking. It might also help alcoholics lose their taste for drinking. - I think that just sucks , they should turn their efforts to making a pill u pop, and get smashed from... now that would be cool. - Mon, 15 Dec 2003 11:40pm | ||

| Wreaker of Havoc User Info... | Scientists have found that females do not encounter hangovers when they have performed oral sex on a male before they go home. The effects are doubled when combined with the fresh air and dim light of an alley....Because I am a humanitarian I am willing to help out any drunk ladies that find the need to uh... not be hungover. Ladies only Brad..... - Wed, 17 Dec 2003 9:01am | ||
| ML7Mike User Info... | There's a pill in the states you can buy, which you take before drinking to avoid hangovers. - Wed, 17 Dec 2003 10:54am | ||

| hunt User Info... | just drink a lot of water to avoid hangovers considering hangovers are mostly caused by dehydration from your body trying to drain out the bad stuff alcohal puts into you. - Wed, 17 Dec 2003 11:21am | ||
| ROSS B AY User Info... | Piss off Mike we all know you can't drink nearly enough to get yourself hungover. Unless by hungover you mean hung over a playground swing with yer pants down. Again. - Wed, 17 Dec 2003 11:29am | ||
| Broccoli User Info... | Okay, So the human equivelent of this gene product is probably multiple receptors (not just one like the worm), so any pill they make for this worm probably wont do TOO much for humans (it'd be nice if they said what kindaworm it was in the mockery of a review, I lost my copy of cell;). Also, this pill would NOT stop hangovers, only REDUCE the depressing affects of alcohol, and wouldn't sober you up if you were allready drunk. - Wed, 17 Dec 2003 2:25pm | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | Heh... - Wed, 17 Dec 2003 3:53pm | ||
