Ratios of M + 5 (glutamate, A) or M + 4 (GABA, B) divided by ΣM + 3, M + 2, M + 1 and ΣM + 2, M + 1, respectively in cultures of dissociated mouse cerebral cortex. Cultures were prepared as described in ‘‘Experimental Procedures’’ and subsequently incubated for 2.5 h in media containing [U-13C]glutamine (concentrations 0.1 mM (white bars), 0.3 mM (grey bars) and 0.5 mM (black bars)). Ratios were determined as detailed in ‘‘Experimental Procedures’’. Results are averages ± S.E.M. of 4–5 cultures. The asterisk indicates statistically significant differences determined by ANOVA (see ‘‘Experimental Procedures’’) from 0.3 mM or 0.5 mM U-13C]glutamine (P < 0.001)

Also in page 2632, second column, line 3 should read ‘significantly lower at the low extracellular glutamine’. Page 2634, first column, line 33 should read ‘concentration, although that of glutamate increased by’.
