It is noted that researchers should not only the behavior of the mice, but also the work of the brain during alcohol consumption. And it was during these observations, scientists have discovered an unusual feature that takes an enzyme aldegiddigidrogenaza addition to its primary role – the decomposition of toxic decomposition products of alcohol to carboxylic acids.

As it turns out, is an enzyme that previously nobody paid attention and actively participates in the production of a signaling molecule specific substance which plays the main role “brake” of the nervous system in the cells of the pleasure center.
