Popis: | We studied the effects of the glycyl-proline dipeptide (Gly-Pro) at a dose of 3 mg/kg on the contents of neuroactive amino acids, including aspartate, glycine, alanine, taurine, GABA, and glutamate, the activity of the enzymes of the GABA shunt, such as GABA-transaminase, succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase, and glutamate decarboxylase, and enzymes of glutamate metabolism, such as glutamate dehydrogenase and alanine and aspartate transaminases in the neocortex of rats subjected to 6-h brain ischemia. We used three means of dipeptide administration, including intraperitoneal, subconjunctival, and intranasal. We found that the protective anti-ischemic effect of Gly-Pro was mostly expressed after intranasal administration. |
