## Abstract The high potassium‐evoked taurine efflux in the nervous tissue has been entirely considered to be the result of the cell swelling produced by KCl influx via passive Donnan forces. However, the extracellular taurine increase evoked in the hippocampus by applying 6–100 mM KCl through micr
## Abstract A dark‐adapted isolated rat retina, preloaded with [^14^C]glutamate ([^14^C]Glu) and [^3^H]taurine ([^3^H]Tau), was superfused with artificial cerebrospinal fluid (ACSF) in the absence and presence of Glu (1 mM) or Tau (1 mM), as well as the Glu uptake inhibitors dihydrokainic acid (DHK
