title: [Effect of ascorbic acid on the binding of 3H-GABA and 3H-glutamic acid to synaptosomes of the rat cerebral cortex].
abstract: The effects of different concentrations of L-ascorbic acid (Asc) on Na+-dependent binding of 3H-GABA and 3H-DL-glutamic acid to rat brain cortical synaptosomes were studied. Asc, at a concentration nearly equal to brain extracellular one (3 X 10(-4) M), had no effect on specific and nonspecific 5H-GABA binding. At higher concentrations (10(-3) M) Asc strongly inhibited, and at lower concentrations (10(-6) M) considerably stimulated 3H-GABA binding. At a concentration of 10(-5)-10(-3) M Asc tended to decrease 3H-DL-glutamic acid binding.
