The uptake of noradrenaline by primary cultures of mouse and rat astrocytes was investigated in order to examine whether an inhibition of extraneuronal noradrenaline uptake was the mechanism whereby some trace biogenic amines potentiate neuronal responses to noradrenaline. In the presence of inhibit

## Abstract Ammonia is a toxin that has been strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy (HE), and the astrocyte appears to be the principal target of ammonia toxicity. The specific neurochemical mechanisms underlying HE, however, remain elusive. One of the suggested mechanism

TGF-beta is a potent inhibitor of EGF-induced DNA synthesis in primary rat hepatocyte cultures. Norepinephrine (NE) was shown to modulate this inhibition of DNA synthesis. It produced a five-fold increase, from 2.8 pM to 14.4 pM, in the IDSo for TGF-beta. The effect was dose-dependent and was signif

To evaluate the role of ceramide in glial growth, primary cultures of quiescent astrocytes from rat cerebellum were stimulated to proliferate by mitogenic doses of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF). Parallel to the bFGF mitogenic effect was a marked, and persistent, decrease in cellular ceramide
