Michael Nolan, assistant professor of radiation oncology and biology, received $ 23,060 for a study on using enhanced ethanol ablation, or
direct ethanol injections to reduce tumors, as a lower - cost treatment for oral cancer.
The heightened potential for synaptic plasticity was temporary, lasting between a week and a month
after ethanol injections stopped, according to the researchers.
But the mice that had a week
of ethanol injections — the «hard - drinkers» — lingered in their cocaine compartments much longer, increasing their time there by 14 percent.
These include intra-arterial chemotherapy, trans - arterial chemoembolization,
percutaneous ethanol injections, microwave coagulation and various immunotherapeutic strategies.

The researchers believe
the ethanol injection «is potentially a new landmark in the treatment of this disease.»
