Differential effects of neuroexcitatory amino acids on corticotropin-releasing hormone-41 and vasopressin release from rat hypothalamic explants.

We have investigated the direct effects of different neuroexcitatory amino acids (EAA) on the secretion of CRH-41 and arginine vasopressin (AVP) from the rat hypothalamus maintained in vitro. CRH-41 and AVP released in the medium were assayed by RIA before and after incubation with N-methyl-D-aspart...
