Locations of amino acids in brain slices from the rat. Tetrodotoxin-sensitive release of amino acids.
1. Amino acids, particularly glutamate, gamma-aminobutyrate, aspartate and glycine, were released from rat brain slices on incubation with protoveratrine (especially in a Ca(2+)-deficient medium) or with ouabain or in the absence of glucose. Release was partially or wholly suppressed by tetrodotoxin. 2. Tetrodotoxin did not affect the release of glutamine under various incubation conditions, no...
متن کاملP2X receptor activation elicits transporter-mediated noradrenaline release from rat hippocampal slices.
This study was designed to test the hypothesis of whether activation of presynaptic P2X receptor-gated ion channels elicits noradrenaline release from central catecholaminergic terminals. ATP, alpha,beta-methylene-adenosine 5'-triphosphate (alpha,beta-methyleneATP), and ADP elicited concentration-dependent [3H]noradrenaline outflow from superfused rat hippocampal slices with the following rank ...
متن کاملThe biochemistry and pharmacology of excitatory sulphur-containing amino acids.
1,-Glutamate is now well established as the predominant transmitter at fast-acting excitatory synapses in the mammalian central nervous system. Other amino acids such as L-aspartate and several acidic sulphur-containing amino acids (SAAs) which exhibit potent depolarizing actions similar to that of Lglutamate [I-31 are known to exist in the brain and/or are present in the brain under pathologic...
متن کاملM channels containing KCNQ2 subunits modulate norepinephrine, aspartate, and GABA release from hippocampal nerve terminals.
KCNQ subunits encode for the M current (I(KM)), a neuron-specific voltage-dependent K+ current with a well established role in the control of neuronal excitability. In this study, by means of a combined biochemical, pharmacological, and electrophysiological approach, the role of presynaptic I(KM) in the release of previously taken up tritiated norepineprine (NE), GABA, and d-aspartate (d-ASP) f...
متن کاملMethionine sulphoxide as a source of sulphur-containing amino acids for the young rat.
1. Young male rats were used in five experiments to study the utilization for growth of methionine sulphoxide, and the relationship between the sulphoxide content in the diet and the level of microbiologically determined methionine activity in blood or blood plasma. In one nitrogen-balance experiment methionine and methionine sulphoxide were compared as supplements to a casein diet and a fish-m...
