The metabolism of [U-13C]aspartate was studied in cultured cortical astrocytes and cerebellar granule neurons in the presence of glucose and during inhibition of glycolysis. Redissolved, lyophilized cell extracts and incubation media were analyzed by 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for t
## Abstract After incubation of glial cells with both ^13^C‐labeled and unlabeled glucose and alanine, ^13^C isotopomer analysis indicates two cytosolic pyruvate compartments in astrocytes. One pyruvate pool is in an exchange equilibrium with exogenous alanine and preferentially synthesizes releasa
## Abstract The effect of γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) on glutamate metabolism was studied by ^13^C‐nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Cerebral cortical astrocytes were incubated with 0.5 mM [U‐^13^C]glutamate and 5 mM glucose in the presence or absence of 0.2 mM GABA for 2 hr. ^13^C‐Labe
