The effect of anaesthetic and analgesic agents on glutamate uptake and release from rat neuronal preparations

In rat cerebrocortical and cerebellar synaptosomes the uptake of [3H]L-glutamate was time-, concentration-(Km=-8.6 and ~2.2M respectively), Na+-dependent and L-trans-PDC sensitive. In general the uptake mechanism was insensitive to clinically relevant concentrations of anaesthetics.;Perfused rat cer...
