Nipecotic acid, an uptake blocker, prevents fading of the gamma-aminobutyric acid effect.

Abstract:

:In rats under urethane, iontophoretic applications of GABA (30-60 nA) in the str. pyramidale of CA1, showed a rapidly fading inhibitory effect. By contrast, GABA had a well-maintained inhibitory effect in str. radiatum. During iontophoresis of nipecotic acid (30-85 nA) identical applications of GABA in str. pyramidale caused a more prominent depression without fading, which suggests that removal of GABA, by uptake, can at least in part account for 'fading'. Nipecotic acid also prolonged the paired-pulse inhibition, presumably by prolonging the duration of inhibitory postsynaptic potentials.

  • Effects of continuous hypoxia on energy metabolism in cultured cerebro-cortical neurons.

    abstract::Mechanisms underlying hypoxia-induced neuronal adaptation have not been fully elucidated. In the present study we investigated glucose metabolism and the activities of glycolytic and TCA cycle enzymes in cerebro-cortical neurons exposed to hypoxia (3 days in 1% of O2) or normoxia (room air). Hypoxia led to increased a...
