title: Brain energy metabolites in mice intoxicated with acrylamide: effects of ischemia.
abstract: Concentrations of phosphocreatine, creatine, ATP, ADP, AMP, glucose and lactate in the whole brain did not differ between the mice intoxicated with acrylamide and the controls. When the brain was made ischemic, these concentrations changed to the same extent in both groups. The only difference was the lower pyruvate in acrylamide-intoxicated mice under the ischemia. Thus, as far as the whole brain is concerned, acrylamide does not cause gross alterations of energy metabolites, even under ischemia.
