Liver collagen levels are determined by a balance between synthesis and degradation, processes known to have rapid rates in growing animals. We report age-related changes in liver collagen synthesis and degradation rates, as well as protein synthesis rates, in rats at five ages from 1 to 24 mo. Frac

## Abstract Ageβrelated changes in brain __T__~1~ from 115 healthy subjects (range, 4.5β71.9 yr) were analyzed in relation to published regional brain iron concentration in cortex, caudate, putamen, and frontal white matter. The relaxation rate in these struc tures was linear with respect to iron c
To determine whether there were age-related changes in the brain tissue of 55 healthy adult volunteers (29 men. 26 women: 18-72 y m old) without known brain abnormalities, a standard inversion-recovery technique was optimized for precise and accurate T1 measurement within the constraints of a 16-min
## Abstract Peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) are a group of posttranslational modification enzymes that citrullinate (deiminate) protein arginine residues in a Ca^2+^βdependent manner. Enzymatic citrullination abolishes positive charges of native protein molecules, inevitably causing significant
Our aim has been to investigate the ability of the rat brain to retain its level of neurotransmitter release over life. We have investigated the neurotransmitter release from the rat brain synaptosomes prelabeled with 3H-DA, 3H-NA, or 3H-5HT, and perfused with Krebs-Ringer medium alone (basal releas
The metabolism of choline by rat brain, plasma, and liver was investigated using combined gas chromatography mass spectrometry following microwave irradiation and treatment with deuterium-labeled choline. Methods were established to measure simultaneously the concentrations of six choline-containing
