Inhibition of human brain aldose reductase and hexonate dehydrogenase by alrestatin and sorbinil.

abstract：:High-affinity binding sites (apparent KD = 1.5 nM) for [3H]desipramine have been demonstrated and characterized in membranes prepared from rat brain. The binding of [3H]desipramine was found to be saturable, reversible, heat-sensitive, sodium-dependent, and regionally distributed among various regions of the brain. Hi...
