Chemotherapeutic agents do not interact with neurotransmitter receptors
The interactions of cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil, doxorubicin, mitomycin, carmustine (BCNU), cyclophosphamide, methotrexate and thio-TEPA were assessed at three neurotransmitter receptor binding sites. Each drug was inactive at concentrations as high as 10(-4) M in displacing the specific binding of 3H-spiperone to dopamine D2, 3H-pyrilamine to histamine ...

Discoveries of Neurotransmitter Agents and Modulators of Neuronal Functions
At a dinner speech in Atlantic City in 1950, Otto Loewi commented on some facets of his work that had led to the discovery of neurochemical transmission. He mentioned that Sir Walter Fletcher, years after the discovery, reminded him that as far back as 1903 Loewi had pointed out to him the possibility of a neurochemical transmission.

Since the original discovery of Hokin and Hokin1 that the application of acetyIcholine in the presence of eserine to cerebral cortex slices of guinea pigs greatly stimulated their incorporation of 32pi into certain phospholipids, which were later shown to be chiefly Phla and PhA, several investigators have confirmed this observation in a wide variety ...

Species variation in the cerebrovascular response to neurotransmitters and related vasoactive agents
Constrictory and dilatory responses of pial arteries to various receptor stimulants and modulators were evaluated in vitro and compared in rat, rabbit, cat and man. For the constrictory response, differences were noted especially in the rabbit, which responded strongly to histamine but poorly to noradrenaline and prostaglandin F2 alpha. Histamine was a

The purpose of this study is to determine whether differences in membrane potential and/or intracellular Ca2+ increments are implicated in a programmed release of amino acid neurotransmitters (aspartate, glutamate, glycine and GABA) in cortical neurons in culture.

Abstract— The effects of 121 mm‐K+, 10 mm‐glutamate, 5 mm‐GABA, 1 mm‐glycine, 0.1 mm‐NE, and 1–10 μmACh on cyclic GMP levels in tissue slices prepared from cerebral cortex and cerebellum of mouse, rabbit, guinea‐pig, cat, and rat were studied. Basal levels of cyclic GMP in the cerebella of mice, guinea‐pigs and cats were 4–15 and 70 pmol/mg prot in rat,
