Abstract:
Aim To investigate the effect of thiopental sodium on the release of glutamate and GABA from synaptosomes of rats prefrontal cortex. Methods Synaptosomes were made from rats prefrontal cortex and incubated with artificial cerebral and spinal fluid (aCSF), then divided into five groups: group base release (Base), group thiopental sodium 10 ?mol?L -1 (THS 10), group thiopental sodium 30 ?mol?L -1 (THS 30), group thiopen tal sodium 100 ?mol?L -1 (THS 100) and group thiopental sodium 300 ?mol? L -1 (THS 300). Various concentrations of thiopental sodium were added to aC SF, the release of glutamate and GABA were performed under 37℃ and measured using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). When Ca 2+-independent release of glutamate and GABA were studied, Ca 2+ was omitted from aCSF.Results Compared with Base, thiopental sodium 30 , 100 and 300 ?mol?L -1 inhibited Ca 2+-dependent release of gluta mate evoked by KCl or veratridine significantly (P
