it kills innocent people if you drive, it kills relationships, carreers, scars your liver, but it does not kill brain cells. Does alcohol kill brain cells? Q: Just wondering, are brain cells really killed when alcohol is consumed? (Billy, World) Swirls and fissures of the human cortex. Photo courtesy of Marymount College. A: No, usually brain cells are not killed. For 16 years, Roberta J. Pentney, professor of anatomy and cell biology at the University at Buffalo, has studied chronic alcohol abuse and brain function. She concludes that alcohol does not kill brain cells but rather damages dendrites--the branched ends of nerve cells that bring messages into the cell. Alcohol surely affects the brain, as we all know, causing slurred speech, clumsiness, slow reflexes, and a loss of inhibition. But alcohol doesn't destroy the brain cells to cause these problems.
