The disposition of kynurenic acid (KYNA), a tryptophan metabolite and broad spectrum antagonist at excitatory amino acid receptors, was studied following the unilateral intrahippocampal injection of 3H-KYNA in the rat. KYNA was rapidly cleared from the injected hippocampus. Similar decay curves were
