Long-term homeostasis of extracellular glutamate in the rat cerebral cortex across sleep and waking states.

Neuronal firing patterns, neuromodulators, and cerebral metabolism change across sleep-waking states, and the synaptic release of glutamate is critically involved in these processes. Extrasynaptic glutamate can also affect neural function and may be neurotoxic, but whether and how extracellular glut...
