Abstract

Olfactory bulb removal and consequential degeneration of the lateral olfactory tract led to a decrease in the levels of glutaminase and malate dehydrogenase in the ipsilateral olfactory cortex. These changes in enzyme activity may account for the well established decrease in the levels of aspartate and glutamate in the olfactory cortex following ipsilateral bulbectomy. The level of glutamine synthetase, a glial marker enzyme, was slightly increased while the activities of glutamate decarboxylase, glutamate dehydrogenase, and glutamate oxaloacetic transaminase were unchanged.
