evidence that glutamate acts as a neurotransmitter in vestibular nerve fibers was sought ( 1 ) by electron microscope radioautographic identification of the uptake sites of [ 3h ] -glutamic acid after incubation of slices of cat vestibular nuclei , and ( 2 ) by measuring changes in sodium-dependent high affinity glutamate uptake in nerve endings containing homogenates from normal and deafferented vestibular nuclei 8 to 11 days after unilateral vestibular nerve lesion .
