Regional and subcellular distribution of GLT in adult rat brain tissue

Regional and subcellular distribution of GLT in adult rat brain tissue 

The highest GLT levels are found in the forebrain. Compared to hippocampus, the concentrations of GLT protein in cerebral cortex, thalamus, bulbus olfactorius and cerebellum are 93, 54, 30 and 24%, respectively (Lehre et al., 1995 0. Haugeto and N.C. Danbolt, unpublished). 

as well as GLAST (see Section 4.2) and EAAT4 (see Section 4.4), are normally predominantly present at the surface of cells in the brain (Chaudhry et al., 1995 Lehre et al., 

The immunoreactivity of membranes in the cytoplasm is very low and at background levels compared to that of the plasma membrane (Chaudhry et al., 1995).
