Guanidinoethane sulfonate (GES) markedly decreased 3H-taurine accumulated in the retina by the high-affinity uptake process. The effect of GES was dosedependent. Analysis of the kinetics of GES effect revealed that it is a competitive inhibitor. The uptake of taurine by GES was less affected in rat
## Abstract Highโaffinity uptake, potassiumโstimulated release and receptor binding of ฮณโaminobutyric acid (GABA) and taurine were studied in retinas of rats treated with monosodium glutamate (MSG) or iodoacetateโmalate (IAM). Such treatments produce a selective damage of the inner retinal layers (
