Methylmercury alters the in vitro uptake of glutamate in GLAST- and GLT-1-transfected mutant CHO-K1 cells.

Biological trace element research - 1 Dec 2005

Abstract excerpt

In order to maintain normal functioning of the brain, glutamate homeostasis and extracellular levels of excitotoxic amino acids (EAA) must be tightly controlled. This is accomplished, in large measure, by the astroglial high-affinity Na+-dependent EAA transporters glutamate/ aspartate transporter (GLAST) and glutamate transporter-1 (GLT-1). Methylmercury (MeHg) is a potent neurotoxicant. Astrocytes are known...
