In last decades, involvement brain-derived acetaldehyde (ACD) in actions mesolimbic pathway has been widely demonstrated. Consistent published results have provided a mechanistic support use ACD inactivating agents block reinforcing properties ethanol. Hence, years, several pre-clinical studies performed order analyze effects sequestering prevention relapse-like drinking well chronic alcohol consumption. this sense, one most explored interventions administration D-Penicillamine. These studies, that we critically summarize article, are considered critical step for potential development novel pharmacotherapeutic strategy addiction treatment could improve outcomes current ones. Thus, on hand, experimental findings provide rationale using DP therapeutic intervention alone and/or combination prevent relapse into seeking On its effectiveness reducing voluntary consumption long-term experienced animals still remains unclear. Finally, drug offers additional advantage already approved humans, hence it be easily implemented new alcoholism.
