Blood glutamate (Glu) levels decreases with administration of Glu scavengers. The injection of OxAc+hGOT (human glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase) (n=15) significantly reduced the blood Glu concentration in contrast to the saline (n=16) injection P<0.05 using one-way analysis of variance with Newman–Keuls multiple comparison test. We suggest that this creates a larger brain-to-blood efflux that is a critical part of the blood glutamate scavenger method. Control here refers to 10 minutes before the paraoxon (PO) challenge of all treated animals (n=31); Two other groups are 40 minutes after PO injection. *P<0.05. OxAc, oxaloacetate.
