Abstract
This overview deals with the current important problem of the expression by astrocytes of a set of funtional and neurochemical properties which, until a few years ago, were thought to be specific for neurons. The interaction of different receptor functions and carrier systems in astrocytes and the functional importance of second messenger systems is discussed.Keywords
