Astroglial swelling occurs in acute hyperammonemic states, including acute hepatic encephalopathy. In these conditions, the peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor (PBR), a receptor associated with neurosteroidogenesis, is up-regulated. This study examined the potential involvement of PBRs and neuro

The effects of glutamate and its agonists and antagonists on the swelling of primary astrocytes were studied. Glutamate (Glu), aspartate (Asp), homocysteate (HCA), and quisqualate (Quis) at 1 mM concentration caused a significant increase in astrocytic swelling as measured by the 3-0-methyl-['4C]-gl
