Antibodies directed against ubiquitin inhibit high affinity [3H]choline uptake in rat cerebral cortical synaptosomes 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Sodium-dependent [3H]choline uptake and coupled [3H]acetylcholine synthesis were inhibited in rat cerebral cortical synaptosomes in a dose- (1-10 micrograms/ml) and time-dependent manner by affinity-purified antibodies directed against ubiquitin (anti-Ub). Neither sodium-independent [3H]choline uptake nor [3H]acetylcholine release was affected by up to 10 micrograms/ml anti-Ub, indicating that the cholinergic terminals were not depolarized by the anti-Ub. Binding of anti-Ub to synaptosomes, as measured with 125I-protein A, was saturable and occurred over the same concentration range (1-10 micrograms/ml) at which uptake inhibition was observed. Although preimmune IgG bound to the synaptosome preparation to a greater extent and was apparently not readily saturable, this fortuitous binding was without effect on high affinity choline uptake and conversion to acetylcholine. The results suggest the presence of a ubiquitin-protein conjugate on the synaptosomal surface and a functional relationship between this protein conjugate and the sodium-dependent choline transport system. 相似文献

[3H]Adrenaline ([3H]ADR, 40 nM) was accumulated by rat hypothalamic synaptosomes (P2) more rapidly and in significantly greater amounts than by similar preparations from cerebral cortex. There was no significant difference between these two tissues in the rate or amount of [3H]noradrenaline ([3H]NA, 40 nM) accumulation. Talusupram (10 microM), maximally inhibited the uptake of [3H]ADR into hypothalamic synaptosomes by 60%. Nomifensine further inhibited uptake by 14%. From these observations it was concluded that some [3H]ADR was accumulated into non adrenergic neuronal terminals. The effects of desipramine (DMI, 10 mg/kg/day and clorgyline (1 mg/kg/day) administration for 28 days on K+-evoked release of [3H]ADR was investigated using superfused hypothalamic synaptosomes. After both chronic antidepressant drug regimens, total [3H]ADR release (spontaneous + evoked) was significantly reduced. Evoked release of [3H]ADR (by KCl, 16 mM) was significantly reduced after the DMI but not the clorgyline regimens. Presynaptic alpha 2-adrenoceptor function in the hypothalamus was assessed during superfusion by measuring the reduction in K+-evoked release of [3H]ADR caused by clonidine (1 microM). The attenuating effects of clonidine on [3H]ADR release (42% in untreated controls and 36% after chronic clorgyline) was diminished (to 4%) after chronic DMI administration. Alpha 2 adrenoceptor numbers in the rat hypothalamus were not significantly changed after clorgyline or DMI administration, suggesting that the functional subsensitivity seen in synaptosomes after DMI, may not be related to alpha 2 adrenoceptor down regulation. 相似文献

The effects of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) on the release of [3H]acetylcholine ([3H]ACh) were studied in synaptosomes prepared from rat hippocampus, cerebral cortex, hypothalamus, and striatum and prelabelled with [3H]choline. When synaptosomes were exposed in superfusion to exogenous GABA (0.01-0.3 mM) the basal release of newly synthesized [3H]ACh was increased in a concentration-dependent way in hippocampus, cortex, and hypothalamus nerve endings. In contrast, the release of [3H]ACh was not significantly affected by GABA in striatal synaptosomes. The effect of GABA was not antagonized significantly by bicuculline or picrotoxin. Muscimol caused only a slight not significant increase of [3H]ACh release when tested at 0.3 mM whereas, at this concentration, (-)-baclofen was totally inactive. The GABA-induced release of [3H]ACh was counteracted by SKF 89976A, SKF 100561, and SKF 100330A, three strong and selective GABA uptake inhibitors. The data suggest that, in selective areas of the rat brain, GABA causes release of [3H]ACh following penetration into cholinergic nerve terminals through a GABA transport system. 相似文献

[3H]Acetylcholine efflux and Na+-K+ ATPase ion pump activity were measured concomitantly in rat cortical synaptosomes. Ouabain (500 microM), strophanthidin (500 microM), and parachloromercuribenzene sulfonate (500 microM) each inhibited ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake and elevated [3H]acetylcholine release independently of the external calcium concentration. Veratridine (10 microM), electrical field stimulation (60 V, 60 Hz, 5-ms pulse duration), or the calcium ionophore A23187 (10 micrograms/ml) also inhibited ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake and released [3H]acetylcholine, but via a calcium-dependent process. Veratridine-induced [3H]acetylcholine release and ion pump inhibition were correlated over a wide range of drug concentrations and both effects were blocked by pre-treatment with tetrodotoxin (1 microM). The rate of [3H]acetylcholine efflux from superfused synaptosomes was increased within 15 s of exposure to ouabain, strophanthidin, veratridine, A23187, or field stimulation, while ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake was significantly decreased within a similar interval. These results suggest that [3H]acetylcholine release is due at least in part to inhibition of Na+-K+ ATPase. 相似文献

Affinity-purified antibodies specific for ubiquitin were found to inhibit the sodium-dependent uptake of [3H]choline, gamma-[3H]aminobutyric acid [( 3H]GABA), [3H]glutamate, [3H]norepinephrine, [3H]aspartate, and [3H]serotonin in rat cerebral cortical synaptosomes at a low concentration (10 micrograms/ml). These antibodies (termed anti-Ub) had no effect on the sodium-independent uptake of these substances or their calcium-dependent efflux. Synaptosomal [3H]deoxyglucose uptake was not affected in normal Krebs Ringer buffer containing 10 mM glucose, but was inhibited in glucose-free medium. Other nonneuronal sodium-dependent transport processes were found to be unaffected by 10 micrograms/ml anti-Ub, suggesting that anti-Ub does not bind indiscriminantly to sodium-binding sites on sodium-dependent organic solute transporters. Finally, anti-Ub inhibited sodium-dependent [3H]GABA and [3H]glutamate uptake in plasma membrane ghosts, devoid of membrane potential, which were derived from rat cerebral cortical synaptosomes. These results suggest that neuronal transporters or sites proximal to them may be ubiquitinylated on the plasma membrane surface. 相似文献

The effects of bromoacetylaminomenthylnorepinephrine (BAAN) on the sodium-dependent, high-affinity norepinephrine (NE) uptake system in rat brain synaptosomes and CNS neuronal cultures were investigated. BAAN inhibited [3H]NE uptake into synaptosomes in a dose- and time-dependent manner (IC50, 6.5 microM). Pretreatment of cortical synaptosomes or neuronal cells with BAAN alone, followed by washing to remove free drug, reduced the Vmax but did not alter the Km value for [3H]NE uptake. The BAAN-induced reduction in Vmax was attenuated by concurrent pretreatment with desipramine and blocked by the reaction of BAAN with dithiothreitol or cysteine. In contrast, BAAN was 19-fold less potent at inhibiting [3H]dopamine uptake in striatal synaptosomes, and no change in the Vmax or Km value for [3H]dopamine uptake was observed after a pretreatment with BAAN followed by washing. Furthermore, the irreversible beta-antagonist, bromoacetylalprenololmentane, was equipotent to BAAN for inhibiting [3H]NE uptake into cortical synaptosomes, but did not alter the Vmax or Km for [3H]NE after pretreatment. In neuronal cultures, BAAN inhibited sodium-dependent uptake of [3H]NE (IC50, 5.6 microM) with no effect on sodium-independent uptake. After pretreatment of cultures with 30 microM BAAN followed by washing, there was a 74% decrease in the Vmax for [3H]NE uptake. Following a 24-h lag period, uptake recovered to the control level within 48 h; however, recovery was completely blocked by cycloheximide. The data indicate that BAAN irreversibly binds to the [3H]NE uptake system in both CNS synaptosomes and neuronal cultures and may be a useful probe for studying the turnover of the [3H]NE uptake system. 相似文献

Inhibitory effects of cis- and trans-resveratrol on noradrenaline and 5-hydroxytryptamine uptake and on monoamine oxidase activity 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

This study investigated for the first time the potential effects of cis- and trans-resveratrol (c-RESV and t-RESV) on noradrenaline (NA) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) uptake by synaptosomes from rat brain, on 5-HT uptake by human platelets, and on monoamine oxidase (MAO) isoform activity. Both c-RESV and t-RESV (5-200 microM) concentration-dependently inhibited the uptake of [3H]NA and [3H]5-HT by synaptosomes from rat brain and the uptake of [3H]5-HT by human platelets. In both experimental models, t-RESV was slightly more efficient than c-RESV. Furthermore, in synaptosomes from rat brain, the RESV isomers were less selective against [3H]5-HT uptake than the reference drug fluoxetine (0.1-30 microM). On the other hand, both c-RESV and t-RESV (5-200 microM) concentration-dependently inhibited the enzymatic activity of commercial (human recombinant) MAO isoform (MAO-A and MAO-B) activity, c-RESV being slightly less effective than t-RESV. In addition, both RESV isomers were slight but significantly more selective against MAO-A than against MAO-B. Since the principal groups of drugs used in the treatment of depressive disorders are NA/5-HT uptake or MAO inhibitors, under the assumption that the RESV isomers exhibit a similar behaviour in humans in vivo, our results suggest that these natural polyphenols may be of value as structural templates for the design and development of new antidepressant drugs with two important biochemical activities combined in the same chemical structure: NA/5-HT uptake and MAO inhibitory activity. 相似文献

Arachidonic Acid Inhibits Choline Uptake and Depletes Acetylcholine Content in Rat Cerebral Cortical Synaptosomes 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
The effects of arachidonic acid on [3H]choline uptake, on [3H]acetylcholine accumulation, and on endogenous acetylcholine content and release in rat cerebral cortical synaptosomes were investigated. Arachidonic acid (10-150 microM) produced a dose-dependent inhibition of high-affinity [3H]choline uptake. Low-affinity [3H]choline uptake was also inhibited by arachidonic acid. Fatty acids inhibited high-affinity [3H]choline uptake with the following order of potency: arachidonic greater than palmitoleic greater than oleic greater than lauric; stearic acid (up to 150 microM) had no effect. Inhibition of [3H]choline uptake by arachidonic acid was reversed by bovine serum albumin. In the presence of arachidonic acid, there was an increased accumulation of choline in the medium, but this did not account for the inhibition of [3H]choline uptake produced by the fatty acid. Arachidonic acid inhibited the synthesis of [3H]acetylcholine from [3H]choline, and this inhibition was equal in magnitude to the inhibition of high-affinity [3H]choline uptake produced by the fatty acid. A K+-stimulated increase in [3H]acetylcholine synthesis was inhibited completely by arachidonic acid. Arachidonic acid also depleted endogenous acetylcholine stores. Concentrations of arachidonic acid and hemicholinium-3 that produced equivalent inhibition of [3H]choline uptake also produced equivalent depletion of acetylcholine content. In the presence of eserine, arachidonic acid had no effect on acetylcholine release. The results suggest that arachidonic acid may deplete acetylcholine content by inhibiting high-affinity choline uptake and subsequent acetylcholine synthesis. This raises the possibility that arachidonic acid may play a role in the impairment of cholinergic transmission seen in cerebral ischemia and other conditions in which large amounts of the free fatty acid are released in brain. 相似文献

Noradrenaline (NA) can be released by both exocytosis and by the membrane transporter responsible for transmitter uptake. Previously, we reported that S-nitrosocysteine (SNC), an S-nitrosothiol, stimulated [3H]NA release from the rat hippocampus. In this study, we investigated the involvement of the NA transport system in SNC-stimulated NA release from rat brain (cerebral cortex and hippocampus) slices. [3H]NA release by SNC in normal Na(+) (148 mM)-containing buffer from both slices was slightly, but significantly, inhibited by 1 microM desipramine, an NA transporter inhibitor. [3H]NA release in low Na(+) (under 14 mM)-containing buffer was inhibited by over 50% by desipramine. [3H]NA release by tyramine from both slices in normal and low Na(+) buffer was almost completely inhibited by desipramine. [3H]NA uptake into cerebral cortical slices was observed in low Na(+) buffer at 20-30% of normal Na(+) buffer levels. [3H]NA uptake in both normal and low Na(+) buffers was inhibited by desipramine and by SNC. Although [3H]NA uptake in normal Na(+) buffer was almost completely inhibited by 500 microM ouabain, the uptake in low Na(+) buffer was resistant to ouabain. These findings suggest the existence of a functional Na(+)-independent NA transport system and that SNC stimulates NA release at least partially via this system in brain slices. 相似文献

Interactions Between α-Latrotoxin and Trivalent Cations in Rat Striatal Synaptosomal Preparations 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
H. W. Scheer 《Journal of neurochemistry》1989,52(5):1590-1597
The interactions between alpha-latrotoxin (alpha-LTx), a neurosecretagogue purified from the venom of the black widow spider, and the trivalent cations Al3+, Y3+, La3+, Gd3+, and Yb3+ were investigated in rat striatal synaptosomal preparations. All trivalent cations tested were inhibitors of alpha-LTx-induced [3H]dopamine [( 3H]DA) release (order of potency: Yb3+ greater than Gd3+ approximately Y3+ greater than La3+ greater than Al3+). Only with Al3+ could inhibition of [3H]DA release be attributed to a block of 125I-alpha-LTx specific binding to synaptosomal preparations. The inhibitory effect of trivalent ions was reversible provided synaptosomes were washed with buffer containing EDTA. Trivalent ions also inhibited alpha-LTx-induced [3H]DA release at times when alpha-LTx-stimulated release was already evident. alpha-LTx-induced synaptosomal membrane depolarization was blocked by La3+, but not affected by Gd3+, Y3+, and Yb3+. alpha-LTx-stimulated uptake of 45Ca2+ was inhibited by all trivalent cations tested. These results demonstrate that there exist at least three means by which trivalent cations can inhibit alpha-LTx action in rat striatal synaptosomal preparations: (1) inhibition of alpha-LTx binding (Al3+); (2) inhibition of alpha-LTx-induced depolarization (La3+); and (3) inhibition of alpha-LTx-induced 45Ca2+ uptake (Gd3+, Y3+, Yb3+, La3+). 相似文献

Neomycin inhibits K+- and veratridine-stimulated noradrenaline release in rat brain slices and rat brain synaptosomes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The possible involvement of phosphoinositides' turnover in the process of neurotransmitter release in the central nervous system (CNS) was studied using rat brain slices and synaptosomes. A depolarizing concentration of potassium chloride (25 mM) induces an 8.6 +/- 0.4% increase of [3H]noradrenaline [( 3H]NA) fractional release in cerebral cortical slices above spontaneous release, and 15 mM KCl induces a 3-fold increase of [3H]NA release in rat brain synaptosomes. Neomycin, an aminoglycoside which binds phosphoinositides, inhibits the potassium-induced release in cortical slices with an IC50 = 0.5 +/- 0.07 mM and with IC50 = 0.2 +/- 0.03 mM in synaptosomes. Veratridine, a veratrum alkaloid which increases membrane permeability to sodium ions and causes depolarization of neuronal cells, induces a net 13.4 +/- 0.3% increase of [3H]NA fractional release above spontaneous release in cortical slices. In analogy to K+ stimulation, neomycin inhibits the veratridine-stimulated release in cortical slices with an IC50 = 0.65 +/- 0.1 mM. It appears that the recycling of phosphoinositides, which is necessary for Ca2+ mobilization, participates in the Ca2+-dependent induced neurotransmitter release in the central nervous system. 相似文献

Evidence for Functional Activity of Up-Regulated Nicotine Binding Sites in Rat Striatal Synaptosomes 总被引:12,自引:5,他引:7
A number of studies have found that the chronic administration of nicotine causes an increase in the density of nicotinic binding sites in the brain, but it is not known whether these additional binding sites are functionally active receptors. In this study, the effects of 1-week administration of the potent nicotinic agonist, (+)-anatoxin-a (96 nmol/day via osmotic minipumps), was assessed on [3H]nicotine binding and [3H]dopamine uptake and release in rat striatal synaptosomes. Chronic (+)-anatoxin-a treatment resulted in a 32% increase in the Bmax of [3H]nicotine binding in anatoxin-treated animals compared to control. There was a 43% increase in the activity of 3 microM nicotine to release [3H]dopamine from synaptosomes of anatoxin-treated animals, but the release induced by 20 mM K+ depolarization was unaffected. There was no effect of chronic (+)-anatoxin-a treatment on the uptake of [3H]dopamine. A strong positive correlation (r = 0.64) was found between the density of [3H]nicotine binding sites and the nicotine-induced stimulation of [3H]dopamine release in individual animals. These results indicate that (+)-anatoxin-a, like nicotine, produces an up-regulation of nicotine binding sites following chronic administration, and that these additional sites are functional receptors capable of mediating the release of dopamine from striatal synaptosomes. 相似文献

The uptake and acetylation of [3H]-choline, as well as the calcium-dependent release of a newly synthesized [3H]-ACh, was studied in a new rat atrial mince preparation. The hemicholinium-3-sensitive uptake and acetylation of [3H]-choline increased as [3H]-choline concentrations were elevated to 100 microM in atrial minces. In contrast, hemicholinium-3-sensitive [3H]-choline uptake was saturated with 15 microM [3H]-choline in brain synaptosomes. The increased atrial [3H]-ACh synthesized in the presence of [3H]-choline augmentation was releasable by 50 mM K+-depolarization in a 1 mM cobalt-sensitive manner. These results suggest that atrial parasympathetic activity may be more sensitive to circulating choline concentrations than brain cholinergic neurons are. 相似文献

The ability of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glycine (Gly) to modulate each other's release was studied in synaptosomes from rat spinal cord, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, or hippocampus, prelabeled with [3H]GABA or [3H]Gly and exposed in superfusion to Gly or to GABA, respectively. GABA increased the spontaneous outflow of [3H]Gly (EC50, 20.8 microM) from spinal cord synaptosomes. Neither muscimol nor (-)-baclofen, up to 300 microM, mimicked the effect of GABA, which was not antagonized by either bicuculline or picrotoxin. However, the effect of GABA was counteracted by the GABA uptake inhibitors nipecotic acid and N-(4,4-diphenyl-3-butenyl)nipecotic acid. Moreover, the GABA-induced [3H]Gly release was Na+ dependent and disappeared when the medium contained 23 mM Na+. The effect of GABA was Ca2+ independent and tetrodotoxin insensitive. Conversely, Gly enhanced the outflow of [3H]GABA from rat spinal cord synaptosomes (EC50, 100.9 microM). This effect was insensitive to both strychnine and 7-chlorokynurenic acid, antagonists at Gly receptors, but it was strongly Na+ dependent. Also, the Gly-evoked [3H]GABA release was Ca2+ independent and tetrodotoxin insensitive. GABA increased the outflow of [3H]Gly (EC50, 11.1 microM) from cerebellar synaptosomes; the effect was not mimicked by either muscimol or (-)-baclofen nor was it prevented by bicuculline or picrotoxin. The GABA effect was, however, blocked by GABA uptake inhibitors and was Na+ dependent. Gly increased [3H]GABA release from cerebellar synaptosomes (EC50, 110.7 microM) in a strychnine- and 7-chlorokynurenic acid-insensitive manner. This effect was Na+ dependent. The effects of GABA on [3H]Gly release seen in spinal cord and cerebellum could be reproduced also with cerebrocortical synaptosomes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The Effects of Scorpion Venom Toxin on the Release of Amino Acid Neurotransmitters from Cerebral Cortex In Vivo and In Vitro 总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2

Tityustoxin, the active component of the venom of the Brazilian yellow scorpion Tityus serrulatus, caused specific release of the neurotransmitter amino acids glutamate, aspartate and GABA in vivo from the superfused sensori-motor cortex of conscious unanesthetised rats and in vitro from rat cortical synaptosomes. The effects on synaptosomes appear to be due to a depolarising action. Synaptosomal potassium levels were depleted by the toxin. The action was also blocked both in vivo and in vitro by tetrodotoxin and was Ca2+-dependent. The uptake of [U-14C]GABA was inhibited by tityustoxin but this action was prevented by tetrodotoxin (1 microM). Since the release of [U-14C]GABA from synaptosomes due to the tityustoxin was also prevented by tetrodotoxin under identical circumstances, it is concluded that the tityustoxin has a primary action on release of neurotransmitters rather than on uptake. 相似文献

We investigated effects of Ebselen, diphenyl diselenide (PhSe)2 and diphenyl ditelluride (PhTe)2 on [3H]glutamate uptake and release by brain synaptosomes. Ebselen after acute exposure inhibited K+-stimulated [3H]glutamate release by brain synaptosomes. (PhSe)2 and (PhTe)2 did not change [3H]glutamate release by brain synaptosomes. Ebselen, (PhSe)2 and (PhTe)2 had no significantly effects on [3H]glutamate uptake after acute exposure. In vitro, Ebselen (100 M) inhibited [3H]glutamate release and uptake. (PhSe)2 had no significant effect, while (PhTe)2 (100 M) inhibited [3H]glutamate uptake by brain synaptosomes. In vitro, (PhSe)2, (PhTe)2 and Ebselen caused a significant inhibition of [3H]glutamate uptake by brain synaptic vesicles in vitro. The results demonstrated that organochalcogenides have a rather complex effect on glutamate homeostasis depending on the compound and the schedule of exposition. We propose that the neuroprotective action of Ebselen can be related, in addition to its glutathione peroxidase-like and antilipoperoxidative activity, to a direct interaction with the glutamatergic system by reducing Kï-evoked glutamate release. 相似文献

Cranio-cerebral hypothermia (temperature of the body 32-30 degrees C, of the brain 29-27 degrees C) was studied for its effect on the reuptake of neuromediators (3H-noradrenaline and [14C]GABA) by the cortex and hypothalamus synaptosomes of the rat brain. It was found that the reuptake of [3H]noradrenaline by the cortex synaptosomes under narcosis and cranio-cerebral hypothermia was inhibited much stronger than that by the hypothalamus synaptosomes. At the same time GABA-ergic synapses of the cortex and hypothalamus were not sensitive to narcosis. Cranio-cerebral hypothermia essentially inhibited the reuptake of [14C] GABA by synaptosomes and hypothalamus. 相似文献

KCl (16 mM) stimulated the release of [3H]noradrenaline ([3H]NA) from rat hypothalamic synaptosomes in a Ca2+-dependent manner; this release was attenuated by clonidine (0.01-100 microM). Changes in the release of [3H]NA and the functional status of alpha 2-adrenoceptors in the medial hypothalamus of rats treated acutely and chronically with clorgyline (1 mg/kg/day) or desipramine (DMI, 10 mg/kg/day) were assessed using superfused synaptosomes in which the attenuating effects of clonidine (1 microM) or the potentiating effects of yohimbine (1 microM) on K+-evoked release of [3H]NA were measured. After acute administration of DMI, significantly less [3H]NA was accumulated into synaptosomes. Although total (spontaneous + K+-evoked) [3H]NA release from these synaptosomes was unchanged, a significant reduction was apparent in the K+-evoked release from the DMI-treated tissue. Attenuation of K+-evoked release by clonidine was abolished in both these acute treatment groups. Following the chronic antidepressant drug regimens, [3H]NA uptake into DMI-treated tissue remained significantly reduced although total percent and K+-evoked [3H]NA release were unchanged. The K+-evoked release of [3H]NA in S1 was significantly enhanced (by 22%) in the clorgyline treatment group. Attenuation of K+-evoked [3H]NA release by clonidine in both chronic antidepressant-treated tissues was not significantly changed. It is concluded that the functional sensitivity of alpha 2-adrenoceptors on nerve endings in the medial hypothalamus is unchanged by these chronic antidepressant drug regimens. In synaptosomes from untreated tissue, yohimbine significantly potentiated K+-evoked release of [3H]NA; this effect was unchanged after acute regimens and reduced after chronic administration of both the antidepressants.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

[3H]MPP+ had lower Km and higher Vmax values for its accumulation in rat brain synaptosomes than did [3H]MPTP. The kinetic parameters favored the uptake of [3H]MPP+ in the striatum to that in hypothalamus, whereas they were equally favorable for the uptake of [3H]MPTP in both regions. Hypothalamic uptake of [3H]MPTP and [3H]MPP+ was inhibited by desipramine, imipramine, norepinephrine, and serotonin. Striatal uptake of [3H]MPP+ and [3H]MPTP was blocked by nomifensine and dopamine. These results support the concept that MPTP accumulates in serotonergic neurons where it is oxidized by monoamine oxidase B to MPP+, which is released and then is selectively accumulated in dopaminergic neurons via the dopamine uptake system. 相似文献

alpha-Latrotoxin, a presynaptic neurotoxin from the venom of Latrodectus mactans tredecimguttatus, induces massive [3H]GABA release from rat brain synaptosomes as a result of interaction with either Ca(2+)-dependent (neurexin 1 alpha or Ca(2+)-independent (latrophilin) membrane receptor. The main aim of the study was to elucidate whether the binding of alpha-latrotoxin to different types of receptors led to [3H]GABA secretion from one pool or in each case the source of neurotransmitter differs: in the presence of Ca2+ exocytosis is induced, while in the absence of Ca(2+)--outflow by mobile membrane GABA transporter from cytoplasm. We examined the effect of the depletion of cytosolic [3H]GABA pool by competitive inhibitors of the GABA transporter (nipecotic acid and 2,4-diaminobutyric acid) on the alpha-latrotoxin-stimulated neurotransmitter release. We also compared the influence of these agents on neurosecretion, evoked by depolarization with that evoked by alpha-latrotoxin. Depolarization was stimulated by 4-aminopyridine in the Ca(2+)-containing saline and high KCl in Ca(2+)-free medium. In synaptosomes treated with nipecotic acid unstimulated [3H]GABA release was significantly augmented and high KCl-evoked Ca(2+)-independent [3H]GABA release was essentially inhibited. But under the same conditions neurosecretion stimulated by alpha-latrotoxin greatly raised with respect to the control response. The similar results were obtained with the synaptosomes treated with 2,4-diaminobutyric acid. Another way to determine which of GABA pool is the target of alpha-latrotoxin action lay in analysis of the toxin effects on the preliminary depolarized synaptosomes. alpha-Latrotoxin influence was diminished by the preceding depolarization by 4-aminopyridine in Ca2+ presence. But after the high KCl stimulation effect of alpha-latrotoxin didn't change. These data suggest that alpha-latrotoxin triggers neurotransmitter release from synaptic vesicles via exocytosis. We suppose that the type of membrane receptor does not determine the mechanism of GABA release evoked by the toxin. 相似文献
