Astrocytes chemical transmitters

From the overall data, it is becoming inaeasingly apparent that astrocytes, by releasing chemical transmitters (the so called gliotrasmitters , Bezzi and Volterra 2001), now appears to be aitically implicated in rapid conununication systems in the brain. [Pg.277]

A. Astrocytes Contain and Release Chemical Transmitters (Gliotransmitters)... [Pg.261]

C. Astrocytes Possess Different Exocytotic Organelles and Pathways for Regulated Chemical Transmitters (Gliotransmitters) Release... [Pg.261]

The molecular mechanisms leading to release of gliotransmitters, especially glutamate, from glia are under debate. Accumulating evidence clearly indicates that astrocytes secrete numerous transmitters by Ca2+-dependent exocytosis. This review will discuss the mechanisms underlying the release of chemical transmitters from astrocytes with a particular emphasis to the regulated exocytosis processes. [Pg.262]
