## Abstract Cerebellar granule cells are targeted selectively by mercury compounds in vivo. Despite the affinity of mercury for thiol groups present in all cells, the molecular determinant(s) of selective cerebellar degeneration remain to be elucidated fully. We studied the effect of mercury compou
## Abstract We studied the influence of glial cells on the neuronal response to glutamate toxicity in cerebellar granule cell cultures. We compared the effect of glutamate on neuronal viability in neuronal vs. neuronal‐glial cultures and determined this effect after pretreating the cultures with th
Cultured astrocytes from neonatal rat cerebral hemispheres are depolarized by the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate. In this study we have used selective agonists of different neuronal glutamate receptor subtypes, namely, the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), kainate, and quisqualate type, to charact
