Previous studies have demonstrated that the compound N-acetyl-L-tryptophan (NAT) reduces brain edema and improves functional outcome following traumatic brain injury (TBI). In this study we examined whether this effect was mediated via the neurokinin-1 receptor, and whether there was an

Brain edema and swelling is a critical factor in the high mortality and morbidity associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Despite this, the mechanisms associated with its development are poorly understood and interventions have not changed in over 30 years.

In vitro and in vivo studies have indicated that stabilizers present in pharmaceutical-grade albumin influence the albumin-binding capacity for highly protein-bound drugs. However, the half-life of the stabilizers and the quantitative effect have been difficult to determine. A randomized crossover
