Selected CSF biochemistry and gabapentin concentrations in the CSF and plasma in patients with partial seizures after a single oral dose of gabapentin.

Gabapentin (GBP) is a neutral amino acid and a GABA analog which in animal experimental models has shown a broad anticonvulsant spectrum. To evaluate the penetration of GBP into the CSF in humans as well as its possible effects on free and total GABA, homovanillic acid (HVA), and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), a special investigation was performed as part of a placebo controlled add-on study of GBP in partial epilepsy. At the end of the 3-month double-blind period, 5 patients on placebo were given a single oral dose of GBP. Four patients received 600 mg and 1 patient 1200 mg GBP. CSF was collected immediately before and at 6, 24 and 72 h after the single dose. 5 ml of plasma was collected at 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 h. Plasma concentrations and plasma elimination half-life (4-6 h) of GBP were in agreement with the results of previous studies. The CSF/plasma concentration ratio of GBP 6 h after drug was 0.1. After 24 h, GBP could only be recovered in the CSF of the patient given 1200 mg. The CSF/plasma ratio at that time was 0.3. Free and total GABA concentrations did not change, but CSF 5-HIAA and HVA increased at 24 and 72 h post dose. The CSF/plasma ratio of gabapentin is similar to that of other amino acids.

The chain growth rate of T4 lysozyme in vitro.

The average interval between attachment of a 30S ribosomal subunit to bacteriophage T4 lysozyme mRNA and the completion of synthesis of lysozyme protein has been measured in vitro. The measured completion times yield rates of polypeptide chain propagation of 1.6 and 3.0 amino acids per second at 25 degrees C and 31 degrees C, respectively.

Trisporic acid biosynthesis in separate plus and minus cultures of Blakeslea trispora: identification by Mucor assay of two mating-type-specific components.

Separate plus and minus cultures of Blakeslea trispora synthesize small amounts of trisporic acids under specific conditions. These amounts are expressed as a percentage of the trisporic acids (50 mg/liter of medium) synthesized by mixed plus-minus cultures in 5 days. Plus cultures, without additives from minus cultures, synthesize 0.1% trisporic acids. Plus cultures synthesize 0.4% trisporic acids when stimulated by M-factor, a mating-type-specific component synthesized by minus cultures. Minus cultures, without additives from plus cultures, do not synthesize even 0.0001% trisporic acids. Minus cultures synthesize 1% trisporic acids when stimulated by P-factor, a mating-type-specific component synthesized by plus cultures. Minus cultures synthesize M-factor when stimulated by pi, a component synthesized by plus cultures. We speculate that (i) minus cultures synthesize a component, mu, which stimulates P-factor synthesis in plus cultures, and (ii) both M-factor and P-factor are precursors of trisporic acids.
