Abstract

Nitric oxide (NO) metabolites nitrite and nitrate were measured in the cerebrospinal fluid in 12 alcohol-dependent subjects and in 16 healthy controls. The amounts of NO metabolites in alcoholics were not different from those in the controls. The results suggest that NO is not a major factor responsible for brain damage in these patients.
