Intensification of alcohol motivation in CBA mice by means of transferring syngeneic splenocytes or blood serum

: CBA mice were subjected to forced alcoholization. After ethanol withdrawal, adoptive transfer of splenocytes, sera, and macrophages was made in intact recipient mice. Splenocytic transfer enhanced alcohol consumption when they had an option to have water or 15% ethanol solution during 7 days. Serum transfer increased ethanol consumption during 24 hours. Macrophageal transfer failed to affect its consumption.
