Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in cerebrospinal fluid.
Levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were measured by radioreceptor assay (RRA) in 25 normal controls and in 121 patients with various central nervous system disorders. CSF-GABA levels could be measured down to 5 pmoles/ml reliably by this assay. In normal controls, the mean (+/- SEM) GABA level in CSF was 127 +/- 5.2 pmoles/ml. There was no correlation between ...
متن کاملBrain-specific proteins: solid-phase immunobioluminescence assay for neuron-specific enolase in human plasma.
We raised specific antibodies in rabbits against pure alpha alpha- or gamma gamma-isoenzymes of enolase (EC 4.2.1.11) purified from human brain. After being specifically immunoabsorbed by the respective Sepharose-coupled enolase isoenzymes, the purified antibodies are desorbed by acidification and coated onto polystyrene tubes. Each sample containing the isoenzyme activity to be determined is i...
متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid enolase in stroke.
This study relates the level of alpha and gamma enolase in cerebrospinal fluid sampled within 4 days of a stroke to the volume of the cerebral infarct measured on the CT image and to the clinical outcome of the patient. Twenty-eight patients were studied, two with transient ischaemic attacks and 26 with completed stroke due to infarction. The cerebrospinal fluid enolase was raised in the two pa...
متن کاملInterferon-Gamma Release Assay Performance of Cerebrospinal Fluid and Peripheral Blood in Tuberculous Meningitis in China
The aim of this study was to examine the performance of T-SPOT.TB on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and peripheral blood (PB) in diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis (TBM) in China. Of 100 patients with presumed TBM prospectively enrolled from Sep 2012 to Oct 2014, 53 were TBM (21 definite and 32 probable TBM cases) and 37 were non-TBM cases; the other 10 patients were excluded from analysis due to i...
متن کاملEnzymatic assay for methotrexate in serum and cerebrospinal fluid.
We describe an assay for methotrexate in biological fluids. The assay is based on inhibition by methotrexate of dihydrofolate reductase from Lactobacillus casei. The lower limit of sensitivity in serum is 2 X 10(-8) mol (about 10 mug) of methotrexate per liter. Within-run precision is +/- 5% (coefficient of variation) and day-to-day variation is 18%. Advantages of the assay are ease of manipula...
