The cytotoxic effect of quisqualate, a potent excitatory amino acid (EAA), was examined in purified astrocyte cultures obtained from neonatal rat cerebral cortex and grown in a serum-free, defined medium (G5). Excitotoxicity was evaluated by phase contrast microscopy and quantified by the measuremen

Glutamate is the most abundant excitatory amino acid in the central nervous system. It has also been described as a potent toxin when present in high concentrations because excessive stimulation of its receptors leads to neuronal death. Glial influence on neuronal survival has already been shown in
