Cadaverine in the rat brain: regional distribution and acylation of [14C]cadaverine in vivo and uptake in vitro.

abstract：:Acetylcholine and choline release from rat brain synaptosomes have been measured using a chemiluminescent technique under a variety of conditions set up to mimic anoxic insult, including conditions of low pH (6.2) and the presence of lactate plus pyruvate as substrate. Lactate plus pyruvate as substrate consistently g...
