Modulation of epileptiform activity by glutamine and system A transport in a model of post-traumatic epilepsy
Epileptic activity arises from an imbalance in excitatory and inhibitory synaptic transmission. To determine if alterations in the metabolism of glutamate, the primary excitatory neurotransmitter, might contribute to epilepsy we directly and indirectly modified levels of glutamine, an immediate prec...
