Metabolic fate of [8-14C]adenosine was studied in primary cultures of either astrocytes or neurons from the mouse brain. In astrocytes the main metabolic route was the formation of nucleotides. Thus, synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) amounted to about 0.2 nmol X min-1 X mg-1 protein. The dea

Uptake and oxidative metabolism of [I4C]malate as well as its incorporation into aspartate, glutamate, glutamine, and GABA were studied in cultured cerebral cortical neurons (GABAergic), cerebellar granule neurons (glutamatergic), and cerebral cortical astrocytes. All cell types exhibited high affin
## 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 timeβ, temperatureβ, and concentrationβdependent, and Na^+^βind
