The reduction in alcohol intake by the 5-HT1A agonist 8-OH DPAT and its attenuation by the α2 adrenergic antagonist idazoxan correlates with blood glucose levels
TLDR
Results support a role for glucoregulatory processes in serotonergically-mediated changes in alcohol consumption and attenuated the hyperglycemic effect of 8- OH DPAT and completely reversed 8-OH DPAT’s inhibitory effect on alcohol intake.
Preclinical Effects of Opioid Antagonists on Feeding and Appetite
TLDR
The role of general and specific opioid receptor subtype antagonist involvement in the mediation of the palatable and hedonic aspects of food intake and food choice, including ingestion of simple sugars and fats is examined.

Novel [3H]Clonidine Binding Sites in the Intestine of the Eel Acclimated to Sea Water
TLDR
Eel intestine may be a good model to elucidate how the IG RS act in the cell and to decide what is the endogenous ligand for the IGRS, since eel intestine contains great amount of IGRS and it responds to guanabenz, an exogenous clonidine derivative.

The effects of idazoxan and other α2‐adrenoceptor antagonists on food and water intake in the rat
TLDR
The results indicate that α2‐adrenoceptor antagonists may increase water intake by a peripherally mediated mechanism and suggests that the hyperphagic effects of idazoxan may reflect its affinity for a non‐adRenoceptor site, a property not shared by the other α2-antagonists.

TLDR
The results are consistent with a role for α2‐adrenoceptors in appetite regulation and a competition antagonism of the effect of clonidine in rats, and suggest a need for further research into this area.

TLDR
A conclusion that opioid peptides are part of a system for regulating ingestion is supported to support a conclusion that Benzodiazepines enhance drinking and eating and apparently interact with opioid systems.
