Abstract
Antibodies against S100 protein in ultralow doses specifically affected catecholamine metabolism in rats withdrawn from chronic ethanol exposure. The contents of tryptophan, tyrosine, and norepinephrine in brain structures returned to normal. The concentrations of dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine in the peripheral blood decreased. Modulation of monoamine content in the peripheral blood suggests that antibodies against S100 protein possess stress-protective activity during ethanol withdrawal.
