## Abstract Increased serum level of homocysteine, a sulfurβcontaining amino acid, is considered a risk factor in vascular disorders and in dementias. The effect of homocysteine and metabolically related compounds on brain production of kynurenic acid (KYNA), an endogenous antagonist of glutamate i
Using [3H]-dopamine (DA) as the ligand of choice, we have shown that rat lymphocytes possess DA binding sites. The binding of r3H]-DA was specific, saturable, and of high affinity. The specific binding in membranes obtained from Con A-activated lymphoblasts was greater than the binding in respective
Despite multiple lines of investigation the effect of neuroleptics on glutamate-mediated neurotransmission remains controversial. To study the effects of typical and atypical neuroleptics on selected parameters of glutamate-mediated neurotransmission, male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned
