Ischemia Induces Release of Endogenous Amino Acids from the Cerebral Cortex and Cerebellum of Developing and Adult Mice

Figure 8

Average release of aspartate, glycine and glutamine (a) and alanine, serine and threonine (c) from cerebellar slices from 7-day-old mice and from cerebellar slices from 3-month-old mice ((b) and (d)) during the superfusion period of 32 to 50 min. The first open bars show the basal and the second right-hatched bars the K+-stimulated release in normoxia, the third left-hatched bars the basal, and the fourth cross-hatched bars the K+-stimulated release in ischemia. The results are mean values SEM of 4–8 independent experiments. The statistically significant difference from the corresponding unstimulated release in normoxia: ; . Note the differences in the scale of the -axes.
