Try searching the on-line bio abstracts. The Journal of Neurophysiology
would have such -- if it's been done.  However, I think I read an
article in the last two or three of months (don't remember where)
suggesting that latest evidence is that glial cells have other
purposes than processing information (e.g., cleaning up by-products
produced by neurons, part of the brains immune system, etc.).
