| Research Abstract |
In vivo fate of amino acids and neurotransmitters in brain is precisely regulated by release from neuron and/or astrocytes and by their re-uptake, and is responsible for maintenance of brain high-order function. In this study, we investigated the functional characterization of N-acetyl-L-aspartyl-L-glutamate (NAAG) and carnitine transporter in mouse preimarily cultured neurons and astrocytes. NAAG was found to be taken up by oligopeptide transporter (PEPT) 2 in astrocytes. In addition, carnitine was found to be taken up by GABA transporter (GAT) 1 and carnitine/organic cation transporter (OCTN) 2 in neuron.
