    Summary
    These increases were augmented when daily subcutaneous injections of 1 microgram of desglycinamide9-lysine8-vasopressin (DGLVP) or 10 microgram of prolyl-leucyl-glycinamide (PLG) were given concomitantly.

    Summary · context
    Rats given ethanol in their drinking water at a concentration that permitted adequate fluid intake gradually accepted higher concentrations and consumed larger amounts of ethanol.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, MIF-1 (Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking MIF-1 (Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2).

  1. 04AnimalNot a test of MIF-1 (Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2) aloneAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In rats offered ethanol and water, pooled peptide tests showed only marginal evidence of changes in ethanol intake.

    Summary · context
    In both Experiments 1 and 2, the rats were switched from forced ethanol intake to a choice between ethanol and tap water.
    Summary · context
    Rats given ethanol in their drinking water at a concentration that permitted adequate fluid intake gradually accepted higher concentrations and consumed larger amounts of ethanol.

    In this study, MIF-1 (Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking MIF-1 (Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2).
