Changes in cerebral alanine determined by cerebral microdialysis during the 5-day L-alanine-L-glutamine infusion phase. Compared to baseline values cerebral alanine was significantly increased during the infusion phase and remained significantly elevated during the 48-hour post infusion observation phase (*P <0.001, analysis of variance, post hoc Dunn’s test).
