Abstract
SummaryEndogenous substances resulting from interactions between alcohol and possibly opioid metabolites and neurotransmitters (dopamine, indolamines) could be mediators of the pathochemical process towards dependence. Beta-carbolines (harman/norharman) are increased in alcoholics and — according to the presented results — in heroin addicts. Psychopathological disorders such as anxiety or depression do not seem to influence the level of beta-carbolines.
