Release of ATP from cultured rat astrocytes elicited by glutamate receptor activation
The release of ATP was studied in cultures of astrocytes derived from the brain hemispheres of newborn rats. There was a basal efflux of ATP, which was increased up to 19-fold by glutamate (300-1000 mu M), N-methyl-D-aspartate (20-500 mu M), alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate (AMPA...
