Rat liver responsiveness to gluconeogenic substrates during insulin-induced hypoglycemia
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2001 Hepatic responsiveness to gluconeogenic substrates during insulin-induced hypoglycemia was investigated. For this purpose, livers were perfused with a saturating concentration of 2 mM glycerol, 5 mM L-alanine or 5 mM L-glutamine as gluconeogenic ...

The Glutamine Transporters and Their Role in the Glutamate/GABA-Glutamine Cycle
, 2016 Glutamine is a key amino acid in the CNS, playing an important role in the glutamate/GABA–glutamine cycle (GGC). In the GGC, glutamine is transferred from astrocytes to neurons, where it will replenish the inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitter pools.

Formation of Glutamine and Activities of Glutamine Synthetase in Goats
The Japanese Journal of Veterinary Science, 1977 When goats were administered orally with urea in a dose of 0.3 g per kg of body weight, the blood concentration of glutamine-N in the jugular vein increased to about 6μg per ml of plasma, reflecting the removal of ammonia by forming glutamine in the animal body. The blood glutamine seemed to undergo a more rapid turnover than the blood urea.
