The role of glutamate and glutamine metabolism and related transporters in nerve cells

Dongyang Zhang,
Zhongyan Hua,
Zhijie Li

Abstract: BackgroundGlutamate and glutamine are the most abundant amino acids in the blood and play a crucial role in cell survival in the nervous system. Various transporters found in cell and mitochondrial membranes, such as the solute carriers (SLCs) superfamily, are responsible for maintaining the balance of glutamate and glutamine in the synaptic cleft and within cells. This balance affects the metabolism of glutamate and glutamine as non‐essential amino acids.AimsThis review aims to provide an overview of the tran… Show more
