Previous studies have suggested that defective high affinity glutamate uptake , due mainly to a major loss of the astroglial specific GLT 1 glutamate transporter , underlies the selective motoneuron degeneration observed in sporadic ALS ( 24 , 28 ) . ^^^ To investigate this , we used immunohistochemical methods to analyze the localization of two subtypes of high affinity glutamate transporters in the cranial motor nuclei of normal monkey brain stem : GLT 1 , localized to astroglia ; and EAAC 1 , localized to neurons . ^^^ Our results indicated that all motor cell groups of monkey brain stem are rich in the GLT 1 glutamate transporter , which is localized to astroglial cells and processes that surround and envelop motoneuron cell bodies and dendrites . ^^^ Therefore , in the case of a loss in the GLT 1 glutamate transporter in sporadic ALS , glutamate may increase in the vicinity of motoneurons in all brain stem motor cell groups , but especially in the ALS vulnerable motor cell groups , which are normally richer in GLT 1 . ^^^

Both the termination of glutamatergic neurotransmission and the prevention of neurotoxic extracellular glutamate concentrations are predominantly achieved by the uptake of extracellular glutamate into astroglia through the high affinity glutamate transporters , excitatory amino acid transporter 2 / glutamate transporter 1 ( EAAT 2 / GLT 1 ) and EAAT 1 / glutamate aspartate transporter ( GLAST ) . ^^^ Although several injury induced growth factors such as epidermal growth factor ( EGF ) and transforming growth factor alpha ( TGFalpha ) potently stimulate the expression of glutamate transporters in cultured astroglia , GLT 1 and / or GLAST expression temporarily decreases during acute brain injuries eventually contributing to secondary neuronal cell death . ^^^ Exposure of cultured cortical astroglia to ET 1 , ET 2 , and ET 3 resulted in a major loss of basal glutamate transporter expression after 72 hours and the complete prevention of the known stimulatory influences of dibutyryl cyclic ( dbc ) AMP , pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide ( PACAP ) , EGF , and TGFalpha on both GLT 1 and GLAST expression . ^^^
