“…This limitation may be addressed by the utilization of a three-choice (e.g., alcohol, water, lysergic acid diethylamide-LSD) drug discrimination procedure (Grant, 1999), that could behaviorally capture a qualitative shift from the stimulus being less alcohol-like, and more like another stimulus (LSD, for example). Additionally, given the complexity of the alcohol discriminative stimulus (e.g., contribution of various transmitter systems: Helms, McCracken, Heichman, & Moschak, 2013; Hodge & Cox, 1998; Kostowski & Bieńkowski, 1999; Platt & Bano, 2011) it is unlikely that manipulation of one system (glutamate) would completely block expression of the interoceptive effects of alcohol, as we had predicted.…”

“…Over the past 30 years, studies employing ethanol discrimination procedures in adult animals have contributed to our understanding of the neural mechanisms underlying the subjective effects induced by ethanol administration (see Kostowski and Bienkowski, 1999). For discrimination training, food-deprived animals are typically administered either ethanol or vehicle and placed in conditioning chambers outfitted with two levers.…”

“…Bienkowski and Kostowski [33] also reported a similar finding in that the sulfated derivative of DHEA, DHEAS, was ineffective at blocking the discriminative-stimulus effects of ethanol. Thus, the effects of DHEA on the discriminative-stimulus effects of ethanol are similar to those of RO15-4513, a partial inverse agonist at the benzodiazepine receptor site, which negatively modulates the GABA A receptor complex and has only been shown to modestly attenuate the subjective effects of ethanol (for review, see [14]). When these data are considered together, there seems to be little evidence to suggest that compounds that negatively modulate the GABA A receptor alter the discriminative-stimulus effects of ethanol even though these drugs can attenuate some of the other behavioral effects of ethanol.…”

“…Although a variety of neurotransmitters and signaling pathways have been shown to be involved in the behavioral effects of ethanol (e.g., [1416]), central GABAergic activity is widely accepted to be one of the most important components of ethanol's effects as a CNS depressant [17, 18]. Behaviorally, this supposition is supported by research showing that benzodiazepines and barbiturates that positively modulate the GABA A receptor complex can substitute for ethanol in drug-discrimination procedures [19, 20].…”
