Regulation of glutamate transport in developing rat oligodendrocytes.
Glutamate released from synaptic vesicles mediates excitatory neurotransmission by stimulating glutamate receptors. Glutamate transporters maintain low synaptic glutamate levels critical for this process, a role primarily attributed to astrocytes. Recently, vesicular release of glutamate from unmyelinated axons in the rat corpus callosum has been shown to elicit AMPA receptor-mediated currents ...
متن کاملRegulation of mitochondrial glutamine/glutamate metabolism by glutamate transport: studies
Welbourne, Tomas, and Itzhak Nissim. Regulation of mitochondrial glutamine/glutamate metabolism by glutamate transport: studies with 15N. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 280: C1151–C1159, 2001.—We focused on the role of plasma membrane glutamate uptake in modulating the intracellular glutaminase (GA) and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) flux and in determining the fate of the intracellular glutamate in ...
متن کاملEstrogen and progesterone attenuate glutamate neurotoxicity via regulation of EAAT3 and GLT-1 in a rat model of ischemic stroke
Objective(s): Glutamate is the most widespread neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and has several functions as a neuromodulator in the brain although in pathological conditions like ischemia it is excessively released causing cell death. Under physiological conditions, glutamate is rapidly scavenged from the synaptic cleft by excitatory amino-acid transport...
متن کاملHigh affinity glutamate transport in rat cortical neurons in culture.
We assayed glutamate transport activity in cultures of rat cortical neurons containing < 0.2% astrocytes. Using [3H]L-glutamate as the tracer, sodium-dependent high affinity glutamate transport was demonstrated [K(m) = 17.2 +/- 2.4 microM; Vmax = 3.3 +/- 0.32 nmol/mg of protein/min (n = 5)]. Dihydrokainate (1 mM) inhibited uptake of radioactivity by 88 +/- 3% and had a Ki value of 65 +/- 7 micr...
متن کاملModulation of Glutamate Transport and Receptor Binding by Glutamate Receptor Antagonists in EAE Rat Brain
The etiology of multiple sclerosis (MS) is currently unknown. However, one potential mechanism involved in the disease may be excitotoxicity. The elevation of glutamate in cerebrospinal fluid, as well as changes in the expression of glutamate receptors (iGluRs and mGluRs) and excitatory amino acid transporters (EAATs), have been observed in the brains of MS patients and animals subjected to exp...
