Title: Betel nut constituents as inhibitors of \[8,7]-aminobutyric acid uptake
Date: 1975
Source: Nature
Abstract: The use of betel nut mixed with lime has been shown to hydrolyse almost quatitatively arecoline to arecaidine, a well tolerated substance which lacks the typical parasympathomimetic effects of arecoline, including tremor and salivation (1,2).
