In order to determine which brain regions are activated by the rewarding properties of ethanol administration, we propose to use Blood Oxygenation Level Dependent (BOLD) fMRI techniques to test the hypothesis that during the time of rising and peak BAC, mesolimbic, mesocortical, and nigrostriatal dopamine (DA) terminal areas of the brain will show significant increases in cerebral blood flow. Healthy, subjects who are not seeking treatment for an alcohol use disorder will be given intravenous (IV) ethanol or placebo infusions on separate days. An ethanol infusion will delivered at rates calculated to produce a BAC of 0.08 plus or minus. An ethanol infusion will delivered at rates calculated to produce a BAC of 0.08 plus or minus 0.005 g/dl at 15 minutes. Then the rate of the infusion will be adjusted so that for the next 30 minutes (second phase) BAC will be maintained at the target level of 0.08 0.005 g/dl. On the placebo day, subjects will receive a saline infusion at the same set of rates as used during their ethanol infusion. Continuous multi-slice fMRI data will be collected during each infusion. During each infusion, BOLD response to visual stimuli designed to evoke emotion will also be examined. In addition, we will compare the BOLD response of healthy social drinkers to that of healthy heavy drinkers. We will also compare the BOLD response elicited by risk-taking during the ethanol infusion to that during the placebo infusion in both social and heavy drinkers.
