Cerebrospinal fluid taurine after traumatic brain injury.

abstract：:Under some pathological conditions in brain, a large amount of superoxide anion (O(2)(-)) is produced, causing various cellular damages. Among three isozymes of superoxide dismutase (SOD), extracellular (EC)-SOD should play a role to detoxify O(2)(-) in extracellular space; however, a little is known about EC-SOD in b...
