  • The Anxiolytic Etifoxine Protects Against Convulsant and Anxiogenic
    Alcohol 43 (2009) 197e206 The anxiolytic etifoxine protects against convulsant and anxiogenic aspects of the alcohol withdrawal syndrome in mice Marc Verleye*, Isabelle Heulard, Jean-Marie Gillardin Biocodex-De´partement de Pharmacologie-Zac de Mercie`res, Chemin d’Armancourt 60200 Compie`gne, France Received 11 December 2008; received in revised form 3 February 2009; accepted 4 February 2009 Abstract Change in the function of g-aminobutyric acidA (GABAA) receptors attributable to alterations in receptor subunit composition is one of main molecular mechanisms with those affecting the glutamatergic system which accompany prolonged alcohol (ethanol) intake. These changes explain in part the central nervous system hyperexcitability consequently to ethanol administration cessation. Hyperexcitability associated with ethanol withdrawal is expressed by physical signs, such as tremors, convulsions, and heightened anxiety in animal models as well as in humans. The present work investigated the effects of anxiolytic compound etifoxine on ethanol-withdrawal paradigms in a mouse model. The benzodiazepine diazepam was chosen as reference compound. Ethanol was given to NMRI mice by a liquid diet at 3% for 8 days, then at 4% for 7 days. Under these conditions, ethanol blood level ranged between 0.5 and 2 g/L for a daily ethanol intake varying from 24 to 30 g/kg. These parameters permitted the emergence of ethanol-withdrawal symptoms once ethanol administration was terminated. Etifoxine (12.5e25 mg/kg) and diazepam (1e4 mg/kg) injected intraperitoneally 3 h 30 min after ethanol removal, decreased the severity in handling-induced tremors and convulsions in the period of 4e6 h after withdrawal from chronic ethanol treatment.

  • Col.V.MISSION of the EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
    COl.V.MISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES SEC(90) 1985 final· Brussels, 29 October 1990 Proposa I for a COUNCIL DIRECTIVE on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relat.ing to cosmetic products -2- EXPLANATORY UEUORANDUM 1. In the context of a people's Europe, the Commission attaches great Importance to simplifying and clarifying Community law so as to make It clearer and more accessible to the ordinary citizen, thus giving hIm new opportunItIes and the chance to make use of the spec if i c rights It gives him. This aim cannot be achieved so long as numerous provisions that have been amended several times, often QUite substantially, remain scattered, so that they must be sought partly In the original Instrument and partly In later amending ones. Considerable research work, comparing many different Instruments, Is thus needed to Identify the current rules. For this reason a consot tdatton of rules that have freQuently been amended Is essential If Community law Is to be clear and transparent. 2. In Its resolution of 26 November 1974 concerning consolidation of Its acts (1), the Council recommended that those of Its acts which have been amended several times be assembled Into a single text. It stressed that, In the Interests of legal certainty, a genuine legislative consolidation, Involving the repeal of earlier acts, should wherever possible be effected (as Is being done In this case). it conseQuently Invited the Commission to let it have proposals for consol !dation and undertook ·to examine them "as Quickly as possible, whltout bringing Into QUestion, during that consol ldatlon, the substantive solutions contained In the consol !dated texts".
