Reliable synaptic transmission depends not only on the release machinery and the postsynaptic response mechanism but also on removal or degradation of transmitter from the synaptic cleft. Accumulating evidence indicates that postsynaptic and glial excitatory amino acid transporters (EAATs) contribute to glutamate removal. However, the role of presynaptic EAATs is unclear. Here, we show in the mouse...
Neuron-glia interactions are essential for synaptic function, and glial glutamate (re)uptake plays a key role at glutamatergic synapses. In knockout mice, for either glial glutamate transporters, GLAST or GLT-1, a classical metabolic response to synaptic activation (i.e., enhancement of glucose utilization) is decreased at an early functional stage in the somatosensory barrel cortex following activation...
