Abstract
It was suspected that the data suggesting metabolic compartmentation of the glutamate-glutamine system would demonstrate developmental aspects reflecting changes in size and turnover rate of the metabolic pools. Further, it was also thought possible that these metabolic changes with ontogenesis would correlate with morphophysiological development. Such correlations might then permit extrapolation as to where these pools were located and possibly their physiological importance. These aims were realized in part by studies on the metabolism of L-[U-14C]glutamate when applied to the surface of the cortex or injected into the cisterna magna of the kitten.
