## Abstract Astroglial cells from mouse cerebral hemispheres, cerebellum, olfactory bulbs, and medulla oblongata were grown in the presence of either hormones (hydrocortisone, insulin) or cell second messengers (dBcAMP, dBcGMP). Glutamine synthetase (GS) specific activity, GS protein level, and GS
Mouse brain astrocytes from primary cultures were found to contain both a l and 012 adrenergic receptors. 3H WB 4101 labeled one category of binding site (KD = 1.5 f 0.39 nM, Bmax = 64 f 7.9 fmoles/mg protein) with typical 01, adrenergic specificity (WB 4101 > prazosin > yohimbine).
