Title: Inhibition of the glutamate uptake in the excitatory neuromuscular synapse of the locust by delta-philanthotoxin; a component of the venom of the solitary wasp Philanthus triangulum F. A high resolution autoradiographic study. Author: van Marle J, Piek T, Lind A, van Weeren-Kramer J. Journal: Comp Biochem Physiol C Comp Pharmacol Toxicol; 1984; 79(1):213-5. PubMed ID: 6149870. Abstract: Glutamate uptake in insect neuromuscular junctions is inhibited by delta-philanthotoxin. Two other components of the philanthus venom (beta- and gamma-philanthotoxin) do not affect this glutamate uptake. No synergism between the active delta-philanthotoxin and the two inactive components had to be assumed to explain the inhibition by the Philanthus venom.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
