Abstract
It is meaningful to quantify some neurotransmitters in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for pathology and clinical diagnosis. The objective of this study was to develop a rapid and reliable method for detecting 5-hydroxyindole ethanol (5-HTOL), 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5-HIAA), 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in CSF by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and explore the clinical significance of the levels of these neurotransmitters in CSF from acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
