pubmed-article:3011833 | pubmed:abstractText | Organic acids, polyols and lipid-bound polyols in the cauda equina nerves of uraemic patients and non-uraemic patients were analysed with high-resolution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. In the uraemic nervous tissue, the concentrations of myoinositol and 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid were increased. Levulinic acid was first detected in the nervous tissue as a normal component. 1-Deoxyglucose and free and lipid phosphatide scylloinositol were detected in the nervous tissue as normal components. | lld:pubmed |
