The influx of [3H]phenylalanine, [3H]tyrosine and [3H]tryptophan into brain cells was studied using brain slices from adult rats. Each aromatic amino acid inhibited the influx of the others into the brain cells. Tryptophan inhibited non-competitively the influx of phenylalanine, and phenylalanine si
Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity was determined in adult rat frontal cortex and hippocampus by measuring the conversion of L-[3H]arginine to L-[3H]citrulline. N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), but not kainate or a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate (AMPA), stimulated NOS activity. This ef
