The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Discriminative and affective touch: sensing and feeling. (2014, background): “However, VGLUT3 is expressed widely in the nervous system, in addition to that found in CLTMs (El Mestikawy et al., 2011).”
Dopamine release in the basal ganglia (2011, background): “Corelease had been suggested by data from cultured cells and slices (see El Mestikawy et al., 2011); however, these use of optogenetics to activate DA neurons selectively provided conclusive evidence that DA axons were the source of glutamate and consequent excitatory post-synaptic currents in NAc…”
Glutamate as a neurotransmitter in the healthy brain (2014, background): “These are also very different from those in the plasma membrane (for review see El Mesti- kawy et al. 2011; Omote et al. 2011) by being independent of sodium and potassium, and by having lower affinity (km around 1 mM).”
Reward and aversion in a heterogeneous midbrain dopamine system (2013, background): “…different axonal projection and inputs, distinct anatomical, molecular and electrophysiological features (Ikemoto 2007; Lammel et al., 2008, 2011, 2012; Margolis et al., 2006, 2008) as well as additional co-transmitters such as GABA (Tritsch et al., 2012) and glutamate (El-Mestikawy et al., 2011).”
