Effect of gamma-glutamyl cycle inhibitors on brain amino acid transport and utilization.

S Samuels, I Fish, L S Freedman.   

Abstract

Two inhibitors of the gamma-glutamyl cycle, methionine sulfoximine (MSO) and 2-imidazolidone-4-carboxylic acid (ICA) were administered to C57LB/6J mice. Both agents resulted in a reduced rate of transport of tyrosine from blood to brain and a decreased rate of incorporation of tyrosine from plasma into brain protein. MSO administration also diminished to concentrations of brain tyrosine, dopamine, and norepinephrine. MSO decreased the transport rate of valine by brain as well as the rate of its incorporation into protein when expressed in relation to the plasma specific activity. The results demonstrate a significant role for the gamma-glutamyl cycle in the transport of large neutral amino acids from blood to brain.
