Interleukin-1beta: a bridge between inflammation and excitotoxicity?

abstract：:Rotating disk electrode voltammetry at glassy carbon electrodes and ultraviolet/visible spectroscopy were used to demonstrate that dopamine binds to neurotensin with a dissociation constant of 7.5 x 10(-8). By measuring the binding constants of various neurotensin analogs, it was found that the -Arg8-Arg9-portion of t...
