Biosynthesis of the polyamines putrescine, spermidine, and spermine has been found to be activated in tissues with cellular proliferation. In the present study we have investigated polyamine levels and the activity of the first rate-limiting enzyme ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) in tumour samples obt

## Abstract The perirhinal cortex (PC), which is heavily connected with several epileptogenic regions of the limbic system such as the entorhinal cortex and amygdala, is involved in the generation and spread of seizures. However, the functional alterations occurring within an epileptic PC network a
## Abstract The distribution of polyamines between the nucleus and the cytoplasm, and the role of the nucleus in polyamine metabolism, have been studied using cells enucleated with cytochalasin B. Spermidine and spermine were found in the nuclear and the cytoplasmic fractions of L929 cells; their c
