The non-hydroxy fatty acids of the galactolipid fraction of brain lipids of pyridoxine-deficient rats have been analyzed. The results suggest an impairment in the pathway for the synthesis of very long chain fatty acids in the brain of pyridoxine-deficient rats.

The high-affinity bindings of [3H]-5-hydroxytryptamine to serotonin S-1 receptors, [3H]-ketanserin to serotonin S-2 receptors in the cerebral cortex, [3H]-fluphenazine to dopamine D-1 receptors, and [3H]-spiroperidol to dopamine D-2 receptors in the corpus striatum were studied in pyridoxine-deficie
The effects of a large number of neurotropic drugs have been attributed to changes in the metabolism of 5-hydroxytryptamine. The aromatic amino acid decarboxylase considered to decarboxylate both dihydroxyphenylalanine and 5-hydroxytryptophan requires pyridoxal phosphate as coenzyme. Thus, in pyrido
