The effect of ethanol on ganglioside metabolism was assessed in cultured rat cerebellar granule cells. Cells were incubated in the presence of tritiated serine or galactose, and the synthesis of radioactive gangliosides was followed. The rate of de novo biosynthesis of gangliosides labeled in the ol

Long-Term Potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus has been considered to be a phenomenon closely related to learning and memory in the brain. In this paper, an integrated model of LTP is constructed based on hypotheses about both the mechanism of LTP induction and that of LTP maintenance, that is, the
The organochlorine pesticide dieldrin is a persistent organic pollutant that accumulates in the fatty tissue of living organisms. In mammals, it antagonizes the GABA(A) receptor, producing convulsions after acute exposure. Although accumulation in human brain has been reported, little is known about
