hippocampal neuron
In healthy individuals, the glutamatergic neurotransmission cycle begins in the mitochondria of hippocampal neurons, where the enzyme glutaminase catalyzes the conversion of glutamine to glutamate. Next, the vesicular glutamate transporter molecule mediates the packaging of these glutamate molecules into vesicles. Glutamate-containing vesicles are then released from the neuron, resulting in elevated synaptic concentrations of free glutamate, which can transmit neural signals by interacting with glutamatergic receptors on postsynaptic neurons PubMed:16273023
