Methylmercury modulates GABAA receptor complex differentially in rat cortical and cerebellar membranes in vitro.

abstract：:The pathophysiology of cerebral oedema (CE) in diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) remains enigmatic. We investigated the role of the idiogenic osmol taurine and aquaporin channels in an in vitro model, the SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell line, by sequentially mimicking DKA-like hyperglycemia/hypertonicity and hypotonic fluid ther...
