Maintenance of Neuronal Glutathione by Glial Cells
1 Nov 1993
Abstract excerpt
Glutathione levels in neurons and glial cells were investigated in a neuronal-glial coculture and in separate cultures. Brain cell suspensions obtained from cerebral hemispheres of fetal rats were cultured, and after 5 days the glutathione content of this cell population, consisting mainly of neurons and astroglial cells, was 23.0 nmol/mg of cell protein, with a significantly high content in glial cells (28.0...
