• A cellular perspective on brain energy metabolism and functional imaging. (2015, background): “This glutamate-glutamine cycle allows a large proportion of glutamate to be recycled to neuronal terminals to replenish the glutamate vesicular pool (Bak et al., 2006; McKenna, 2007; Stobart and Anderson, 2013), whereas the remaining glutamate enters the TCA cycle in astrocytes after conversion to…”
• Brain energy metabolism: focus on astrocyte-neuron metabolic cooperation. (2011, background): “Glutamate uptake is primarily achieved by the astrocyte-specific sodium-dependent high-affinity glutamate transporters glutamate transporter 1 (GLT-1) and glutamate aspartate transporter (GLAST) (corresponding to human EAAT2 and EAAT1, respectively) (Bak et al., 2006).”
• Glutamate and dopamine in schizophrenia: an update for the 21st century (2015, background): “Glutamine has been suggested to be a marker of glutamatergic neurotransmission, as it is generated after synaptic glutamate is taken up into astrocytes (Bak et al., 2006).”
