## Abstract Although the neurotoxicity of trimethyltin (TMT) is well known, mechanisms are still not clear. Glia have been proposed to mediate the toxic action of TMT on nerve cells. Accordingly, the effects of TMT were tested in primary neuronal cultures from rat cerebellum and compared to effects

Many neurologic disorders are related to congenital or acquired hyperammonemia (HA). Advanced symptoms of HA range from seizures in acute stages to stupor and coma in more chronic conditions, manifesting variable imbalance between the inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmission. Evidence obtained wi
We have previously reported that GABA reverses the neuronotoxic effects of ethanol in neuroblast-enriched cultures derived from 3-day-old whole chick embryo (E3WE). In the present study, we examined the effects of GABA agonists and antagonists on morphological growth patterns and on cholinergic neur
