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
Astrocytes have been prepared from adult rat cortex, cerebellum, and striatum, using a modification of the McCarthy-DeVellis (J Cell Biol 85:890, 1980) method. The cultures consist of 99% type 1 polygonal astrocytes, which divide more slowly than cells from newborn animals. One day after preparing t
