...Michiko Takahashi; Brian Billups; David Rossi; Monique Sarantis; Martine Hamann; David Attwell ABSTRACT Glutamate transporters in neurones and glia, four of which have been cloned from mammals, play a crucial role in controlling the extracellular glutamate concentration in the brain. In normal...

...E. A. Howes; T. R. Cheek; P. J. S. Smith ABSTRACT A method is described for the isolation and growth in vitro of fully differentiated neurones from the thoracic ganglia of adult cockroaches. The presence of insect blood in the culture system is shown to promote growth. The morphology of the growing...

...M. P. Mahaut-Smith ABSTRACT The amplitude and rate of activation of the voltage-dependent H + pathway in intact Helix neurones were investigated using standard two-electrode voltage clamp techniques. Na + and K + currents were inhibited by a Na + -free, tetraethylammonium (TEA + ) (low-Cl...

...D. J. Maetzold; A. G. M. Bulloch ABSTRACT Sprouting of undamaged, adult neurones has been observed in a number of situations. For instance, in the peripheral nervous system of vertebrates, intact motoneurones exhibit terminal sprouting in response to axotomy of contralateral motoneurones...
