abstract：:Recent animal research has provided evidence that brain ischaemia is associated with a shift of energy related metabolites (lactate, adenosine, inosine, and hypoxanthine) and several transmitters from the intracellular to the extracellular fluid (ECF). These chemical changes of the ECF reflect the energy crisis of the...
