The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee licensed a newly developed alcoholism treatment to a Milwaukee-area pharmaceutical company, which in turn will shepherd the drug through the federal approval process. The drug has considerable market potential," said Frank Langley, president and chief executive of MPP Group LLC, a year-old pharmaceutical start-up that acquired the exclusive rights to test, market and sell the compound. MPP is based in the Milwaukee County Research Park in Wauwatosa.

Members of the group say the bill's sponsors are missing the point on drug abuse and are planning to vent their concerns in person at the Capitol this week.

The purpose of the study was to map alcohol problems in relation to blood alcohol concentration in a large representative sample of male and female Swedish drivers suspected of drunk driving. Twenty-one hundred suspected DUI offenders (drivers suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol) were assessed with the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT). Information from the police regarding BAC, age, gender, and place and lime of the stop was also collected. More than half (58%) of the suspected DUJ offenders had alcohol problems, and among these 24% had high levels of alcohol problems. Of specific interest was the observation that almost half (46%) of the suspects with a BAC below the Swedish legal limit of 0.02% had alcohol problems, a prevalence that did not increase u...

Alcohol abuse and dependence are human conditions for which no full equivalent exists in animals. Nevertheless, animal models frequently are used to study various aspects of alcohol dependence that cannot be easily or ethically assessed in humans, including neurobiological mechanisms underlying alcohol dependence. Many of these animal models involve rodents; however, the characteristics (i.e., phenotypes) of chronic heavy drinking may be limited in these species. Nonhuman primates add an important translational aspect to the study of alcohol abuse and alcoholism. Their genetic, anatomical, physiological, and behavioral similarity to humans offers unique opportunities for identifying risk factors that may predispose a person to or accelerate the course of alcohol addiction. Studying alco...
