Free fatty acids, central nervous system and bromazepam.
The concentrations of free fatty acids in plasma were estimated in thirty-three subjects, before and after (24 hours and 72 hours) the start of bromazepam oral administration in a daily dose of 6 mg (1.5 mg at 7 a.m., 1.5 mg at 3 p.m. and 3 mg at 11 p.m.). A fourth estimation was performed 72 hours after drug discontinuation. A control group of twelve subjects received a placebo according to th...
متن کاملFatty Acids in Energy Metabolism of the Central Nervous System
In this review, we analyze the current hypotheses regarding energy metabolism in the neurons and astroglia. Recently, it was shown that up to 20% of the total brain's energy is provided by mitochondrial oxidation of fatty acids. However, the existing hypotheses consider glucose, or its derivative lactate, as the only main energy substrate for the brain. Astroglia metabolically supports the neur...
متن کاملPolyunsaturated fatty acids in the central nervous system: evolution of concepts and nutritional implications throughout life.
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3) and arachidonic acid (AA, 20:4n-6) are the major polyunsaturated fatty acids in the membranes of brain and retinal cells. Animals specifically deficient in dietary n-3 fatty acids have low DHA content in their membranes, reduced visual acuity and impaired learning ability. Studies on bottle-fed human infants have shown that adding DHA and AA to milk replacer-...
متن کاملADENOSINE IN THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
Besides being a metabolite of nucleotides like ATP, adenosine is a mediator of neuronal function in the central nervous system. Its actions are mediated by at least three extracellular receptors. In this review different aspects of adenosine such as biosynthesis, release, inactivation and its receptors are discussed. It also covers pre- and postsynaptic effects as well as postreceptor mecha...
متن کاملFree radicals in central nervous system ischemia.
Free radicals have been implicated in a wide variety of diseases and in the toxic and therapeutic effects of antineoplastic drugs and radiation, the deleterious consequences of environmental pollutants, and "degenerative" processes such as aging and Parkinson's disease.Their involvement in myocardial and intestinal as well as central nervous system (CNS) ischemia is under intensive study. A fre...
