Glutamate homeostasis in the brain is maintained by its well balanced release, uptake and metabolism. It appears that astrocytes play a prominent role in this context since they possess a very powerful battery of glutamate transporters. Thus, malfunction of astrocytic glutamate transporters will lea

## Abstract In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) non‐neuronal cells play key roles in disease etiology and loss of motoneurons via noncell‐autonomous mechanisms. Reactive astrogliosis and dysfunctional transporters for L‐glutamate [excitatory amino acid transporters, (EAATs)] are hallmarks of ALS

## Abstract The pathologic activation of NMDA receptors by glutamate is a major contributor to neuronal cell death after stroke. Receptor activation causes a massive influx of calcium into the neuron that is accumulated by the mitochondria. The favored hypothesis is that the calcium loaded mitochon
