Depolarization-induced suppression of inhibition (DSI) is a process whereby brief approximately 1-s depolarization to the postsynaptic membrane of hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells results in a transient suppression of GABA(A)ergic synaptic transmission. DSI is triggered by a postsynaptic rise in [Ca(2+)](in)

Interference of methotrexate (MTX) with the metabolism of homocysteine may contribute to MTX neurotoxicity. In this pilot study we measured the concentration of homocysteine and related metabolites in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma
Philipp Görtz et al.
Journal of the neurological sciences, 218(1-2), 109-114 (2004-02-05)
Severe hyperhomocysteinemia (50-200 microM) often presents itself with acute neuronal dysfunction including seizures and psychosis. Its moderate form (15-50 microM) is associated with cognitive impairment and dementia. We investigated the neuropharmacological effects of homocysteine and its oxidized forms, homocysteinesulfinic acid

Efflux of various amino acids from rat brain slices was determined under resting or depolarizing conditions. Slices of neocortex, hippocampus, striatum, cerebellum, mesodiencephalon, pons-medulla, and spinal cord were depolarized by K+ (50 mM) or veratrine (33 micrograms/ml). The 4-N,N-dimethylamino-azobenzene-4'-isothiocyanate (DABITC)

Sulfur containing amino acids such as homocysteic acid (HCA), cysteinsulfinic acid, homocysteinsulfinic acid are released by depolarization of slices from various rat brain regions in a Ca++-dependent manner. L-HCA excites caudate neurons through their N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor and potentiates
