    Notes: Abstract— Ninhydrin decarboxylation experiments were carried out on the labelled amino acids produced following intraventricular injection of either γ-hydroxy-[1-14C]butyric acid (GHB) or [1-14C] succinate. The loss of isotope (as 14CO2) was similar for both substances. The [1-14C]GHB metabolites lost 75% of the label and the [1-14C] succinate metabolites lost 68%. This observation gives support to the hypothesis that the rat brain has the enzymatic capacity to metabolize [1-14C]GHB to succinate and to amino acids that have the isotope in the carboxylic acid group adjacent to the a-amino group. These results also indicate that the label from [1-14C]GHB does not enter the Krebs cycle as acetate. The specific activity ratio of radiolabelled glutamine to glutamic acid was determined in order to evaluate which of the two major metabolic compartments preferentially metabolize GHB. It was found that for [1-14C]GHB this ratio was 4.20 ± 0.18 (S.E. for n = 7) and for [l-14C]succinate this ratio was 7.71 (average of two trials, 7.74 and 7.69). These results suggest that the compartment thought to be associated with glial cells and synaptosomal structures is largely responsible for the metabolism of GHB. Metabolism as it might relate to the neuropharmacological action of GHB is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Divalent cation ATPases were prepared from rat brain synaptic vesicles, synaptosomal plasma membranes, and plasma membranes from the brain stem and sciatic nerve and tested for optimal stimulation by Mn2+, Mg2+, or Ca2+. ATPase in the synaptic vesicle subfraction was optimally stimulated by Mn2+. All plasma membrane preparations were optimally stimulated by Mg2+. Separate Mn2+ and Mg2+ ATPases could not be distinguished by either chemical inactivation or substrate preference criteria. Mn2+ stimulated ATPase in the micromolar range and it is suggested that Mn2+ interaction with ATPase may be of physiological and/or toxicological importance by being related to the cellular metabolism of this element.
