PHYSIOLOGICAL ACTIONS OF TAURINE

2-Aminoethane sulfonic acid, or taurine, is a phylogenetically ancient compound with a disjunct distribution in the biosphere. The mechanisms by which taurine may be acting and how the same mechanism expressed in different settings may affect apparently unrelated physiological phenomena are examined...

Zusammenfassung:	2-Aminoethane sulfonic acid, or taurine, is a phylogenetically ancient compound with a disjunct distribution in the biosphere. The mechanisms by which taurine may be acting and how the same mechanism expressed in different settings may affect apparently unrelated physiological phenomena are examined.
