The present work studied the transport of L-DOPA in cultured rat and mouse astrocytes. Results indicated that the uptake of L-[14C]DOPA in both rat and mouse astrocytes was Na+ independent and temperature sensitive. It was mediated by a carrier-mediated mechanism with K, values of 36 and 60.3 pM, an
## Abstract In this study, we examined the transport mechanisms for guanine and guanosine in rat neurons and astrocytes, and compared their characteristics. In the both types of cell, the uptake of [^3^H]guanine and [^3^H]guanosine was time‐, temperature‐, and concentration‐dependent, and Na^+^‐ind
A cDNA clone encoding a stimulatory G-protein a subunit (Gsa) was isolated from a cDNA library derived from cultured rat astrocytes. The nucleotide sequence of the cDNA indicated that it corresponds to the Gsa-2 form of Gsa mRNA, one of four Gsa mRNAs known to be derived by alternative splicing from
