An assessment of the effect of hormone and neurotransmitters on adenine and guanine derivatives simultaneously in rat brain cortical slices.
A A 2-dimensional thin-layer method has been developed for the separation on cellulose of adenine and guanine derivatives. Using incubated rat cerebral cortex slices it was shown that noradrenaline and acetylcholine stimulated cAMP and cGMP production respectively but glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid stimulated production of both cyclic nucleotides.
