abstract：:Previous studies suggest that alterations of brain glutamate synthesis and release occur in experimental thiamine deficiency. In order to assess the integrity of post-synaptic glutamatergic receptors in thiamine deficiency, binding sites for [3H]glutamate (displaced by NMDA), [3H]-kainate, and [3H]quisqualate (AMPA si...
