Plasmalemmal Na/Ca Exchanger Modulates Ca-Dependent Exocytotic Release of Glutamate from Rat Cortical Astrocytes
Astroglial excitability operates through increases in Ca 2+ cyt (cytosolic Ca 2+ ), which can lead to glutamatergic gliotransmission. In parallel fluctuations in astrocytic Na + cyt (cytosolic Na + ) control metabolic neuronal-glial signalling, most notably through stimulation of lactate production,...
