Gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase in brain capillaries: possible site of a blood-brain barrier for amino acids.

M Orlowski, G Sessa, J P Green.   

Abstract

A fraction containing capillaries and rich in gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase was isolated from homogenates of bovine brain cortex by density gradient centrifugation. The enzyme was localized in the endothelial cells by a histochemical procedure. gamma-Glutantyl transpeptidase may function in the transfer of some amino acids across the blood-brain barrier.
