Characterization of neurotransmitter receptors in the rat hippocampal formation.

abstract：:The time course of the reduction in brain protein synthesis following transient bilateral ischemia in the gerbil was characterized and compared with changes in a number of metabolites related to brain energy metabolism. The recovery of brain protein synthesis was similar following ischemic periods of 5, 10, or 20 min;...
