Rapid termination of the synaptic action of glutamate (Glu) and glycine (Gly) is achieved by uptake into the presynaptic terminal and glial cells. In the vertebrate CNS, Gly acts both as an inhibitory neurotransmitter and as a Glu modulator or coagonist at postsynaptic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) re
Uptake of radiolabelled L-arginine was studied in four different kinds of glial cultures, in astroglia-rich primary cultures derived from neonatal rat and mouse brains, in pure murine astrocyte cultures, and in rat glioma cells C6-BU-1. A saturable component of uptake was found in all cases with KM
## Abstract The purpose of the present study was to elucidate the expression and regulation of the L‐cystine transporter, system x~c~^−^, in Müller cells. In this study, newly developed conditionally immortalized rat Müller cell lines (TR‐MUL) from transgenic rats harboring the temperature‐sensitiv
