Control of cleft glutamate concentration and glutamate spill-out by perisynaptic glia: uptake and diffusion barriers.

Most glutamatergic synapses in the mammalian central nervous system are covered by thin astroglial processes that exert a dual action on synaptically released glutamate: they form physical barriers that oppose diffusion and they carry specific transporters that remove glutamate from the extracellula...
