Quisqualic acid sensitizes hippocampal CA1 neurons to depolarization by L-2-amino-4-phosphonobutanoic acid (L-AP4). This sensitization to L-AP4 is known to be blocked by simultaneous exposure to L-homocysteinesulfinic acid, L-alpha-aminoadipic acid and L-serine-O-sulfate during exposure to quisqualate. We report here that these

Depolarizations induced by a range of amino acids including some sulphur-containing excitatory transmitter candidates were evoked from motoneurones in the neonatal rat spinal cord under conditions that precluded activation of known ionotropic glutamate receptors. The responses could be partially and

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

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

1. The effects of the sulphur containing amino acids, homocysteic acid, homocysteine sulphinic acid, cysteic acid and cysteine sulphinic acid on the release of [3H]-acetylcholine ([3H]-ACh) from the cholinergic amacrine cells of the rabbit retina were examined. 2. All the
