Sirt1NP1145/Sirt1NP1145 flies show strongly reduced conditioned odor preference associated with ethanol intoxication, but no defects in olfactory acuity.
At 60% ethanol vapor dose, Sir2NP1145 flies show reduced sedation sensitivity, reduced sedation tolerance, and almost no increase in locomotor activity upon repeated ethanol exposure compared to controls. At 73% ethanol vapor dose, Sir2NP1145 flies retain the latter phenotype, but exhibit normal sedation sensitivity and sedation tolerance.
Sir22A-7-11/Sir2NP1145 flies show almost no increase in locomotor activity upon repeated ethanol exposure compared to controls.
