NEURONAL METABOLISM 



l82 5 



knowledge to date, does not differ greatly from the 

 chemistry of other tissues; therefore, it would seem 

 more probable that its peculiarity is attributable to 

 the particular relations it has to the unique structural 

 and functional organization of the neuron. It is 

 extremely fortunate that such a multidisciplinary 



approach is becoming increasingly more prevalent 

 in the field of the nervous system. The past decade 

 has witnessed a tremendous surge in our knowledge of 

 neuronal chemistry, and within the next quarter 

 century its relation to the excitatory events them- 

 selves should become considerably more clear.
