High affinity [3H]gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and [3H]L-glutamate uptake were determined in synaptosomes prepared from the cerebral cortex of dogs with congenital hepatic encephalopathy and control dogs. The Km value for GABA uptake was increased by 35% but there was a concomitant 34% increase in Vmax suggesting that GABA uptake capacity was not changed in HE dogs. In contrast, mean Vmax for glutamate uptake in HE dogs was 85% greater than mean Vmax in control dogs; mean Km was increased by 25% in HE dogs. Therefore, overall synaptosomal high affinity glutamate uptake capacity was increased in HE dogs compared to controls.
