The wide-ranging neuronal actions of excitatory amino acids, such as glutamate, are thought to be mediated mainly by postsynaptic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and non-NMDA receptors. We now report the existence of presynaptic glutamate receptors in isolated nerve terminals (synaptosomes) prepared from hippocampus, olfactory bulb, and cerebral cortex. Activation of these receptors by NMDA or non-NMDA agonists, in a concentration-dependent manner, resulted in Ca(2+)-dependent release of noradrenaline from vesicular transmitter stores. The NMDA-stimulated release was potentiated by glycine and was blocked by Mg2+ and selective NMDA antagonists. In contrast, release stimulated by selective non-NMDA agonists was blocked by 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3- dione, but not by Mg2+ or NMDA antagonists. Our data suggest that the presynaptic glutamate receptors can be classified pharmacologically as both the NMDA and non-NMDA types. These receptors, localized on nerve terminals of the locus ceruleus noradrenergic neurons, may play an important role in interactions between noradrenaline and glutamate. 相似文献

1. Experiments were conducted in vitro on isolated spinal cords of frogs and immature rats and in vivo on cat spinal neurones. 2. The concept of two major types of excitatory amino acid receptors present in these preparations is summarized, one type (NMDA receptors) being activated specifically by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and blocked by specific antagonists such as D(-)-2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate (APV), and a second type (non-NMDA receptors) characterized by insensitivity to specific NMDA antagonists. This second type may be comprised of two sub-types activated selectively by the agonists quisqualate and kainate. The putative transmitters L-glutamate and L-aspartate have mixed action on both NMDA and non-NMDA receptors. The major action of both transmitter candidates is considered to be on non-NMDA receptors, but the proportion of the composite responses mediated by NMDA receptors (at least for spinal neurones) appears to be greater for L-aspartate than for L-glutamate. 3. The preference of NMDA and non-NMDA receptors for a range of agonists is discussed. Some newer agonists are considered, in addition to several known agonists not previously discussed in terms of NMDA- and non-NMDA-receptor preference. Structure-activity relations of agonists are discussed. 4. The actions of some new amino acid antagonists are reported. Some of these have useful kainate and quisqualate blocking activity, in addition to their ability to block NMDA induced responses. 5. Evidence is presented suggesting that excitatory amino acid receptors are involved in both polysynaptic and monosynaptic excitation in the spinal cord, NMDA receptors mediating polysynaptic excitation and non-NMDA receptors monosynaptic excitation. 6. The unusual effect is reported of L-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate, which potently blocks spinal synaptic excitation in the absence of depressant action on excitatory amino acid-induced responses. 相似文献

Abstract: Binding of [3 H]glutamate, [3 H]glycine, and the glutamate antagonist [3 H]CGS-19755 to NMDA-type glutamate receptors was examined in homogenates of rat forebrain and cerebellum. Most glutamate agonists had a higher affinity at the [3 H]glutamate binding site of cerebellar NMDA receptors as compared with forebrain, whereas all the glutamate antagonists examined showed the reverse relationship. The [3 H]glycine binding site of forebrain and cerebellar NMDA receptors showed a similar pharmacology in both brain regions. In the cerebellum, however, [3 H]glycine bound to a second site with a 10-fold lower affinity and with a pharmacology that resembled that of the glycine/strychnine chloride channel. [3 H]Glutamate binding was not affected by glycine agonists or antagonists, nor was [3 H]glycine binding affected by glutamate agonists in either forebrain or cerebellum. Both CGS-19755 and 3-(2-carboxypiperazin-4-yl)propyl-1-phosphonic acid, glutamate antagonists, reduced [3 H]glycine binding in cerebellum, whereas only CGS-19755 was effective in forebrain. Glycine agonists and antagonists modulated [3 H]CGS-19755 binding in forebrain and cerebellum to different extents in the two brain regions. From these studies we conclude that the cerebellar NMDA receptor has a different pattern of modulation at glutamate and glycine sites and that glycine may play a more important role in the control of NMDA function in the cerebellum as compared with forebrain. 相似文献

The wide-ranging neuronal actions of glutamate are thought to be mediated by postsynaptic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and non-NMDA receptors. The present report demonstrates the existence of presynaptic glutamate receptors in isolated striatal dopaminergic nerve terminals (synaptosomes). Activation of these receptors, by NMDA in the absence of Mg2+ and presence of glycine and by non-NMDA agonists in the presence of Mg2+, results in Ca(2+)-dependent release of dopamine from striatal synaptosomes. The release stimulated by NMDA is blocked by Mg2+ and by selective NMDA antagonists, whereas the release stimulated by selective non-NMDA agonists is blocked by a non-NMDA antagonist but not by Mg2+ or NMDA antagonists. Thus, these presynaptic glutamate receptors, localized on dopaminergic terminals in the striatum, appear to be pharmacologically similar to both the NMDA and the non-NMDA postsynaptic receptors. By modulating the release of dopamine, these presynaptic receptors may play an important role in transmitter interactions in the striatum. 相似文献

N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists share a number of pharmacological effects with GABA(A) agonists, including anxiolytic and anticonvulsant effects. This study evaluated the effects of site-selective NMDA antagonists in rats trained to discriminate the benzodiazepine diazepam from vehicle. As expected, diazepam produced robust discriminative stimulus effects and dose-dependently substituted for the training dose. Mixed results were obtained with competitive NMDA antagonists: whereas NPC 17742 partially substituted for diazepam, SDZ EAA 494 did not elicit responding on the diazepam-associated lever. Other site-selective NMDA antagonists, including the open channel blocker phencyclidine, the glycine-site antagonists ACEA 1021 and MDL 102,288, the polyamine-site antagonist arcaine, and the glutamate release inhibitor riluzole, failed to substitute for diazepam. Agonists at nonbenzodiazepine sites of the GABA(A) receptor complex were also tested for comparison purposes. The barbiturate pentobarbital and the neurosteroid Co 2-1068 partially substituted for diazepam. In contrast, the anticonvulsant carbamazepine failed to substitute even at a dose that substantially reduced response rates. These results suggest that substitution of NMDA antagonists for GABA(A) agonists is dependent upon the site at which the NMDA antagonist binds. Further, they suggest that similarities between the stimulus properties of GABA(A) agonists and NMDA antagonists are at least as strong as similarities among agonists acting at different sites on GABA(A) receptors. 相似文献

The responses of dorsal horn neurones to the excitatory amino acids quisqualate, kainate, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), and quinolinate have been examined in an in vitro preparation of the rat spinal cord. The antagonism of these responses by iontophoretically applied D-(-)-2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate (DAPV), kynurenate, and acridinate was tested, and the results were compared with data obtained from the spinal cord in vivo. The pattern of antagonism was similar in both preparations, although the potencies of agonists and antagonists were found to be significantly greater in vitro. The antagonism of amino acid induced firing of neurones was also recorded during the application of DAPV and kynurenate in the bathing medium. Dose-response curves and IC50 values were determined for these antagonists against all four agonists. The responses to quinolinate were antagonized differently from those to NMDA, quisqualate, or kainate, suggesting that quinolinate does not act specifically through the NMDA receptor as it does in other regions, nor does it appear to act via two or more of the three archetypal amino acid receptors. These findings suggest that a fourth amino acid receptor responsible for quinolinate's action in the spinal cord may exist. 相似文献

Pharmacological antagonists of excitant amino acid action 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Pharmacological receptors for excitant amino acids have been classified into three major types found within the vertebrate central nervous system (CNS). The three types of receptor are exemplified by the action of the selective agonists N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), kainate and quisqualate. Several compounds have been discovered which are selective antagonists of NMDA-evoked excitations, the most potent to date being 2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate (APV). Depression of synaptic excitation by NMDA receptor antagonists indicates a physiological role of these receptors in various regions of the CNS.Potent and selective antagonists for kainate or quisqualate receptors have yet to be developed. However, glutamate diethyl ester (GDEE) and γ-D-glutamylglycine (DGG), applied microelectrophoretically, selectively depress quisqualate and kainate-evoked responses, respectively. 2-Amino-4-phosphonobutyrate (APB) and -2, 3-piperidine dicarboxylate (PDA) are relatively non-selective antagonists of the three types of excitant receptor. Depression of APV-resistant spinal transmission by PDA and synaptically localized kainate binding in the hippocampus suggest that kainate and/or quisqualate receptors are also involved in excitatory transmission. 相似文献

1. Crayfish abdominal nerve cords were perfused with selected transmitters or their agonists or antagonists. Motor activity underlying abdominal positioning behavior was monitored.2. All the neurotransmitters except glycine had a measurable effect on this system.3. Acetylcholine and its agonists were slightly stimulatory. Both muscarinic and nicotinic receptors were indicated.4. GABA was weakly inhibitory. Picrotoxin was strongly stimulatory, perhaps as a result of its known ability to block GABA and inhibitory acetylcholine receptors.5. Histamine was strongly inhibitory. Both H1 and H2 receptors were indicated.6. Glutamate was found to be slightly inhibitory while its agonist, NMDA, showed no effect.7. Finally, L-Dopa was stimulatory, but only at a high concentration. 相似文献

The expression of c-fos mRNA in rat brain was induced by intraperitoneal administration of pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) and picrotoxin, which act on the picrotoxin binding site of the gamma-aminobutyric acid-benzodiazepine (GABA-BZ) receptor complex, by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and kainic acid, agonists of different classes of glutamate receptors and by caffeine, an antagonist of adenosine receptors. The actions of PTZ and picrotoxin but not that of NMDA were blocked by ethanol and the NMDA-receptor antagonist, MK-801. Ro 15-4513 partially reversed the inhibitory effect of ethanol on PTZ-induced c-fos mRNA synthesis. Acute ethanol administration blocked the actions of PTZ and NMDA without affecting the response to kainic acid or caffeine. Taken together, these data suggest that ethanol blocks c-fos gene activation by noncompetitive antagonists of the GABA-BZ receptor via actions on both the NMDA and GABA receptors. 相似文献

Na/K-ATPase prepared from cerebellum granule cells of 10-12-day-old mice is inhibited by glutamate and its agonists, NMDA (ligand for ionotropic receptors) and ACPD (ligand for metabotropic receptors). The inhibition is specific and prevented by subsequent antagonists (MK-801 for ionotropic NMDA-receptors and MCPG for metabotropic receptors). The inhibiting effect of NMDA is significantly reversed by cysteine and that of ACPD by chelerythrine or indolyl maleimide. It is concluded that ionotropic receptors inhibit Na/K-ATPase because of intracellular production of reactive oxygen species, and metabotropic receptors mediate their effect via protein kinase C. 相似文献

Using an in vitro microsuperfusion procedure, the NMDA-evoked release of [3H]ACh was studied after suppression of dopamine (DA) transmission (alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine) in striatal compartments of the rat. The effects of tachykinin neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptor antagonists and the ability of appropriate agonists to counteract the antagonist responses were investigated to determine whether tachykinin NK1 classic, septide-sensitive and/or new NK1-sensitive receptors mediate these regulations. The NK1 antagonists, SR140333, SSR240600, GR205171 but not GR82334 and RP67580 (0.1 and 1 microM) markedly reduced the NMDA (1 mm + D-serine 10 microM)-evoked release of [3H]ACh only in the matrix. These responses unchanged by coapplication with NMDA of NK2 or NK3 agonists, [Lys5,MeLeu9,Nle10]NKA(4-10) or senktide, respectively, were completely counteracted by the selective NK1 agonist, [Pro9]substance P but also by neurokinin A and neuropeptide K (1 nM each). According to the rank order of potency of agonists for counteracting the antagonist responses ([Pro9]substance P, 0.013 nM > neurokinin A, 0.15 nM > substance P(6-11) 7.7 nM = septide 8.7 nM), the new NK1-sensitive receptors mediate the facilitation by endogenous tachykinins of the NMDA-evoked release of ACh in the matrix, after suppression of DA transmission. Solely the NK1 antagonists having a high affinity for these receptors could be used as indirect anti-cholinergic agents. 相似文献

Chronic in vivo or in vitro application of GABA(A) receptor agonists alters GABA(A) receptor peptide expression and function. Furthermore, chronic in vitro application of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) agonists and antagonists alters GABA(A) receptor function and mRNA expression. However, it is unknown if chronic in vivo blockade of NMDA receptors alters GABA(A) receptor function and peptide expression in brain. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were chronically administered the noncompetitive NMDA receptor antagonist MK-801 (0.40 mg/kg, twice daily) for 14 days. Chronic blockade of NMDA receptors significantly increased hippocampal GABA(A) receptor alpha4 and gamma2 subunit expression while significantly decreasing hippocampal GABA(A) receptor alpha2 and beta2/3 subunit expression. Hippocampal GABA(A) receptor alpha1 subunit peptide expression was not altered. In contrast, no significant alterations in GABA(A) receptor subunit expression were found in cerebral cortex. Chronic MK-801 administration also significantly decreased GABA(A) receptor-mediated hippocampal Cl- uptake, whereas no change was found in GABA(A) receptor-mediated cerebral cortical Cl- uptake. Finally, chronic MK-801 administration did not alter NMDA receptor NR1, NR2A, or NR2B subunit peptide expression in either the cerebral cortex or the hippocampus. These data demonstrate heterogeneous regulation of GABA(A) receptors by glutamatergic activity in rat hippocampus but not cerebral cortex, suggesting a new mechanism of GABA(A) receptor regulation in brain. 相似文献

The influence of glutamate and agonists of its ionotropic receptors on free radical formation in rat brain synaptosomes was
investigated using the fluorescent dye DCFDA. Glutamate at concentrations of 100 μM and 1 mM increased the production of reactive
oxygen species. This phenomenon was eliminated by removing calcium from the incubation medium. Addition of NMDA (100 μM) or
kainate (100 μM) to a suspension of synaptosomes also led to free radical formation. The influence of glutamate receptor agonists
was blocked by the specific antagonists MK-801 and NBQX. Thus, activation of NMDA and AMPA/kainate receptors can lead to oxidative
stress in neuronal presynaptic endings. 相似文献

The pineal eye of Xenopus laevis tadpoles is directly photosensitive. A sudden reduction in light intensity produces a burst of activity in the pineal ganglion
cells, which is closely followed by the onset of swimming. In this paper I present the results of experiments on the effects
of agonists and antagonists of candidate pineal transmitters on ganglion cell activity. I found that NMDA and non-NMDA excitatory
amino acid (EAA) agonists increased pineal activity, indicating the presence of both types of receptor. Kynurenic acid reduced
activity, thus confirming that the photoreceptor transmitter is an EAA. Under physiological conditions, CNQX blocked activity
almost completely whilst AP5 had little effect. In Mg2+-free saline CNQX had a considerably smaller effect, but joint application of CNQX and AP5 blocked almost all activity; therefore,
the NMDA receptors are subject to blockage by Mg2+. Although GABAA and ACh receptors appear to be present, no evidence was found for GABA or ACh as pineal transmitters. In addition, 5-HT had
no effect on pineal activity. The main pineal transmitter is an EAA acting on ganglion cells through both NMDA and non-NMDA
receptors. Other receptors are present but appear to have no role in controlling pineal activity at this stage.

NMDA and non-NMDA receptors stimulation causes differential oxidative stress in rat cortical slices 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Glutamate receptor activated neuronal cell death is attributed to a massive influx of Ca(2+) and subsequent formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) but the relative contribution of NMDA and non-NMDA sub-types of glutamate receptors in excitotoxicity is not known. In the present study, we have examined the role of NMDA and non-NMDA receptors in glutamate-induced neuronal injury in cortical slices from young (20+/-2 day) and adult (80+/-5 day) rats. Treatment of slices with glutamate receptor agonists NMDA, AMPA and KA elicited the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and neuronal cell death. In young slices, NMDA receptor stimulation caused a higher ROS formation and neurotoxicity, but KA was more effective in producing ROS and cell death in adult slices. AMPA exhibited an intermediate effect on ROS formation and toxicity in both the age groups. A significant protection in glutamate mediated ROS formation and neurotoxicity was observed in presence of NMDA or/and non-NMDA receptors antagonists APV and NBQX, respectively. This further confirms the involvement of both NMDA and non-NMDA receptors in glutamate mediated neurotoxicity. In adult slices, we did not find positive correlation between ligand induced neurotoxicity and mitochondrial depolarization. Though, NMDA and KA stimulation produced differential effect on ROS formation and neurotoxicity in young and adult slices, the mitochondrial depolarization was higher and comparable on NMDA stimulation in both the age groups as compared to KA, suggesting that the mitochondrial depolarization may not be a good indicator for neurotoxicity. Our results demonstrate that both NMDA and non-NMDA sub-types of glutamate receptors are involved in glutamate mediated neurotoxicity but their relative contribution is highly dependent on the age of the animal. 相似文献

Abstract: The role of excitatory amino acid (EAA) receptors located in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) in tonic and phasic regulation of dopamine release in the ventral striatum was investigated. Microdialysis in conscious rats was used to assess dopamine release primarily from the nucleus accumbens shell region of the ventral striatum while applying EAA antagonists or agonists to the VTA. Infusion of the AMPA/kainate receptor antagonist 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (25 and 100 µ M ) into the VTA did not affect dopamine release in the ventral striatum. In contrast, intra-VTA infusion of the NMDA receptor antagonist 2-amino-5-phosphopentanoic acid (100 and 500 µ M ) dose-dependently decreased the striatal release of dopamine. Intra-VTA application of the ionotropic EAA receptor agonists NMDA and AMPA dose-dependently (10 and 100 µ M ) increased dopamine efflux in the ventral striatum. However, infusion of 50 or 500 µ M trans -(±)-1-amino-1,3-cyclopentanedicarboxylic acid (ACPD), a metabotropic EAA receptor agonist, did not significantly affect these levels. These data suggest that NMDA receptors in the VTA exert a tonic excitatory influence on dopamine release in the ventral striatum. Furthermore, dopamine neurotransmission in this region may be enhanced by activation of NMDA and AMPA receptors, but not ACPD-sensitive metabotropic receptors, located in the VTA. These data further suggest that EAA regulation of dopamine release primarily occurs in the VTA as opposed to presynaptically at the terminal level. 相似文献

Summary. It has been proposed that glutamatergic transmission, in particular NMDA receptor function, might be altered in schizophrenia.
This hypothesis is mainly based on the observation that uncompetitive NMDA receptor antagonists, e.g. phencyclidine, evoke
psychotic symptoms in healthy subjects, whereas agonists interacting at the glycine site of the NMDA receptor complex, e.g.
glycine or D-serine, administered jointly with typical neuroleptics, can alleviate schizophrenic symptoms. The function of
NMDA receptors may be modulated by group I mGluRs (mGluR1 and mGluR5), which have also been shown to be altered in schizophrenia.
In rodents, mGluR5 antagonists, but not mGluR1 ones, potentiate the locomotor activity and the deficit of prepulse inhibition
(PPI) induced by uncompetitive NMDA receptor antagonists. These antagonists (of either type) administered alone are not active
in the above tests. Hence, antagonists of mGluR1 and mGluR5 may evoke different effects on the NMDA receptor antagonists-induced
behavior and, possibly, on schizophrenic symptoms. 相似文献

l-Glutamate is a major excitatory neurotransmitter that binds ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors. Cerebral endothelial cells from many species have been shown to express several forms of glutamate receptors; however, human cerebral endothelial cells have not been shown to express either the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor message or protein. This study provides evidence that human cerebral endothelial cells express the message and protein for NMDA receptors. Human cerebral endothelial cell monolayer electrical resistance changes in response to glutamate receptor agonists, antagonists, and second message blockers were tested. RT-PCR and Western blot analysis were used to demonstrate the presence of the NMDA receptor. Glutamate and NMDA (1 mM) caused a significant decrease in electrical resistance compared with sham control at 2 h postexposure; this response could be blocked significantly by MK-801 (an NMDA antagonist), 8-(N,N-diethylamino)-n-octyl-3,4,5-trimethyoxybenzoate (an intracellular Ca2+ antagonist), and N-acetyl-L-cystein (an antioxidant). Trans(+/-)-1-amino-1,3-cyclopentanedicarboxylic acid, a metabotropic receptor agonist (1 mM), did not significantly decrease electrical resistance. Our results are consistent with a model where glutamate, at excitotoxic levels, may lead to a breakdown in the blood brain barrier via activation of NMDA receptors. 相似文献

In vivo CREB phosphorylation mediated by dopamine and NMDA receptor activation in mouse hippocampus and caudate nucleus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The pattern of CREB phosphorylation was investigated in the caudate nucleus and hippocampus 10 min or 3 h after i.p. injection of dopamine or NMDA receptor agonists alone, or in combination with antagonists. Ten minutes after C57BL/6 J mice were injected with either the dopamine D1 receptor agonist SKF-38393 hydrobromide or NMDA, immunoreactivity of phosphorylated CREB (pCREB) was significantly increased in all parts of the caudate nucleus but not in hippocampal regions. However, 3 h after the injection of SKF-38393, pCREB levels in the caudate nucleus did not differ significantly from the pCREB levels in control animals, whereas pCREB levels were still elevated 3 h after NMDA injection. Except for the D1 receptor antagonist SCH-23390, which induced CREB phosphorylation in the caudate nucleus, dopamine and NMDA receptor antagonists had little effect on pCREB levels by themselves. However, the NMDA receptor antagonist CGS-19755 injected i.p. blocked both the NMDA- and SKF-38393-induced rise of pCREB levels in the caudate nucleus. Similarly, the D1 receptor antagonist SCH-23390 inhibited the effects produced by SKF-38393 or NMDA. Interestingly, the D2 receptor antagonist sulpiride also blocked the SKF-38393-triggered rise of pCREB. The results demonstrated that NMDA and dopamine receptors modulate pCREB levels in the caudate nucleus and suggest mutual permissive roles for both receptors. 相似文献
