In this work, we demonstrate that the cerebral Cho
concentration is related to adaptive changes in
neurotransmitter and more specifically glutamate
secretion. To this we used the NMDA-receptor antagonist
ketamine as a tool compound, which was previously shown
by invasive methods to largely increase synaptic
glutamate release.
