โฆ Synopsis
The distribution of VPA has been investigated in several brain areas of the rat, and GABA increases were measured. A biphasic exponential decay was observed for VPA; the slowest decrease was noted in the olfactory bulbs and in the hypothalamus where GAD and GABA-T activities were the highest. The data may be correlated with the prolonged effect of VPA in these areas.

Since the identification of a P2X receptor-mediated central synapse in 1992 and the initial cloning of the P2X receptors in 1994 there has been great interest in the possible functions of P2X receptors in the CNS. The purpose of this review is not to detail every study but to highlight recent advanc
