Taurine as osmoregulator and neuromodulator in the brain.

S S Oja1, P Saransaari.   

Abstract

Taurine has been assumed to function as an osmoregulator and neuromodulator in the brain. The pertinent studies are now reviewed in an attempt to formulate a unifying hypothesis as to how taurine could simultaneously act in both roles. Neuromodulatory actions of taurine may also underlie its protective effects against neuronal overexcitation and glutamate agonist-induced neurotoxicity.
