## Abstract Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) specific activities, kinetic properties and allosteric regulation were studied in extracts from cultured neurons and astrocytes prepared from mouse cerebral cortex and cerebellum. Considerable differences were observed in the specific activity of the enzyme
Astrocytes have been prepared from adult rat cortex, cerebellum, and striatum, using a modification of the McCarthy-DeVellis (J Cell Biol 85:890, 1980) method. The cultures consist of 99% type 1 polygonal astrocytes, which divide more slowly than cells from newborn animals. One day after preparing t
