The effects of l-glutamate on cultured insect neurones

Abstract

The effects of L-glutamate on insect cultured neurones were studied under current and voltage-clamp conditions using conventional and whole-cell patch-clamp techniques. Brief pressure or iontophoretic application of L-glutamate produced either a depolarisation or hyperpolarisation. The current underlying the depolarisation was inwardly directed and reversed at around 0 mV while the hyperpolarisation was caused by an outward current that …
