Abnormalities in glutamate metabolism and glutamatergic neurotransmission appear to play a major role in the pathogenesis of hyperammonemia and hepatic encephalopathy. Astrocytes may be involved in these derangements as ammonia has been shown to impair the ability of these cells to take up glutamate

The GABAergic agonist, muscimol, and antagonists, picrotoxin and bicuculline, have been studied in rats with chronic portacaval shunts and in rats developing hepatic encephalopathy after massive ischemic necrosis due to hepatic artery ligation within 48 hr of a portacaval shunt. After the chronic po
