title: Autoradiographic localization of kainic acid binding sites in the human hippocampus.
abstract: Autoradiographic localization of kainic acid binding sites has been determined in postmortem human hippocampi. The results reveal that these binding sites are present in regions vulnerable to epilepsy, in particular the terminal field of the mossy fibers.
