In the present report we describe the effect of glutamate on respiratory activity in primary cultures of astrocytes, derived from cerebral cortex of newborn rat. Glutamate (100 FM) caused an increased oxygen consumption. This effect could not be inhibited by antagonists to the NMDA or AMPAkainate r

## Abstract Glutamate metabolism in astrocytes was studied using an experimental setup that simulates the role of neurons (glutamate producers and glutamine consumers) by the addition of glutaminase to the culture medium. Thereby, a steady supply of glutamate was imposed at the expense of glutamine
