Abstract

The expression and activity of glutamate transporters (EAAC1, GLAST and GLT1) were examined during the development of cortical neuron-enriched cultures. Protein content and mitochondrial respiration both increased during the first 7 days, later stabilized and decreased from DIV14. Glutamate transport and extracellular concentration were relatively constant from DIV3 to 18. The kinetic parameters of glutamate transport were at DIV7: K(m)=19+/-3 microM and V(max)=1068+/-83 pmol/mg protein/min and at DIV14: K(m)=40.8+/-9.3 microM and V(max)=1060+/-235 pmol/mg protein/min. The shift in K(m) towards higher values suggest a more important participation of GLAST after DIV14. At DIV7 and 14, glutamate transport was poorly sensitive to dihydrokaïnate (DHK) suggesting a weak participation of GLT1 in glutamate transport. Western blot experiments and immunocytochemistry showed that EAAC1 was expressed by neurons whatever the stage of the culture. GLAST was found in astrocytes as soon as DIV3 and labeling increased during the development of the culture. There was little neuronal GLT1 immunoreactivity at DIV7, only detected by immunocytochemistry. From DIV10 to 18, an increasing astrocytic expression of GLT1 was observed, also detected by We...Continue Reading

Astrocytes

Astrocytes are glial cells that support the blood-brain barrier, facilitate neurotransmission, provide nutrients to neurons, and help repair damaged nervous tissues. Here is the latest research.
