The properties of [3H]glycine uptake and release were studied with cerebellar granule cells, 7-9 days in vitro, (DIV) and astrocytes, 14-15 DIV, in primary cultures. The uptake of glycine in both cell types consisted of a saturable high-affinity transport and nonsaturable diffusion. The transport co

Taurine uptake in cultured cerebellar granule cells and astrocytes consisted of a saturable high-affinity component and nonsaturable diffusion. The transport constant (Km) was significantly lower and the maximal velocity (V) higher in granule cells than in astrocytes. The uptakes were strictly sodiu
## Abstract A glycoprotein that induces Ξ³βaminobutyric acid (GABA) carriers in cultured cerebellar astrocytes was isolated and purified from conditioned media from cultured cerebellar granule cells by anion exchange chromatography, affinity chromatography, and gel filtration. Following gel filtrati
The uptake, release, and metabolism of alanine were studied in primary cultures of cerebral cortical neurons or astrocytes and cerebellar granule neurons. All three cell types exhibited a saturable, sodiumdependent uptake of alanine with K, values (pM) of 256 f 30,463 f 39, and 292 f 39, respectivel
The effect of potassium depolarization and N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) on the activity of aspartate aminotransferase (AAT; EC 2.6.1.1), an enzyme suggested to be involved in neurotransmitter glutamate synthesis, was studied in cultured cerebellar granule neurons. Both KCI and NMDA increased AAT acti
