Relationship between intracranial hemodynamics and microdialysis markers of energy metabolism and glutamate-glutamine turnover in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Clinical article.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECT: The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between hemodynamics (intracranial and systemic) and brain tissue energy metabolism, and between hemodynamics and glutamate (Glt)-glutamine (Gln) cycle activity. METHODS: Brain ... Read more...

Basal forebrain lactate release and promotion of cortical arousal during prolonged waking is attenuated in aging.

14 Sep 2009 The wake-promoting basal forebrain (BF) is critically involved in sustaining cortical arousal. In the present study, we investigated how aging affects the capacity of the BF to cope with continuous activation during prolonged waking. Increased ... Read more...

Glutathione and amino acid concentrations in human liver during short warm ischaemia and reperfusion: a pilot study.

30 Aug 2009 Glutathione is a major antioxidant, and, in the present study, we investigated whether a clinical model of short warm ischaemia and reperfusion of the human liver during surgery would influence glutathione and amino acid metabolism. Previous studies ... Read more...
