alpha-Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) binding sites were solubilized from rat brain membranes using 1% Triton X-100 in 0.5 M potassium phosphate buffer containing 20% glycerol. The solubilized binding sites were stable, permitting biochemical and pharmacological characterization as well as partial purification. Pharmacological and binding analyses indicated that the solubilized binding sites were similar to the membrane-bound sites. Both the solubilized and the membrane-bound preparations contained high- and low-affinity AMPA binding sites in the presence of potassium thiocyanate. A similar rank order for inhibition of [3H]AMPA binding by several excitatory amino acid analogs was obtained for the soluble and membrane-bound preparations. [3H]AMPA binding to both soluble and membrane-bound preparations was increased in the presence of potassium thiocyanate. The solubilized AMPA binding sites migrated as a single peak with gel filtration chromatography, with an Mr of 425,000. Beginning with the solubilized preparation, AMPA binding sites were purified 54-fold with ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration. The characterization and purification of these soluble binding sites is potentially useful for the molecular characterization of this putative excitatory amino acid receptor subtype. 相似文献

Micromolar concentrations of piracetam, aniracetam, and oxiracetam enhanced alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA)-stimulated 45Ca2+ influx in primary cultures of cerebellar granule cells. Nootropic drugs increased the efficacy but not the potency of AMPA and their action persisted in the presence of the voltage-sensitive calcium channel blocker nifedipine. Potentiation by oxiracetam was specific for AMPA receptor-mediated signal transduction, as the drug changed neither the stimulation of 45Ca2+ influx by kainate or N-methyl-D-aspartate nor the activation of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis elicited by quisqualate or (+-)-1-aminocyclopentane-trans-1,3-dicarboxylic acid. Piracetam, aniracetam, and oxiracetam increased the maximal density of the specific binding sites for [3H]AMPA in synaptic membranes from rat cerebral cortex. Taken collectively, these results support the view that nootropic drugs act as positive modulators of AMPA-sensitive glutamate receptors in neurons. 相似文献

alpha-Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid (AMPA) is a selective ligand for an excitatory amino acid receptor subtype in mammalian brain. We have solubilized an AMPA binding protein from bovine brain membranes with 1% Triton X-100 in 0.5 M phosphate buffer and 20% glycerol at 37 degrees C and purified the stable binding sites using a series of chromatographic steps. Scatchard analysis of the purified preparation showed a curvilinear plot with dissociation constants of 10.6 and 323 nM and Bmax values of 670 and 1,073 pmol/mg of protein for the high- and low-affinity sites, respectively. Inhibition constants for several excitatory amino acid analogues were similar to those obtained for other membrane and solubilized preparations. Gel filtration of the soluble AMPA binding protein showed a single peak of [3H]AMPA binding activity at Mr approximately 500,000. With sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the purified AMPA binding protein showed a single major band at Mr = 110,000. Previously, we have shown that a monoclonal antibody (KAR-B1) against a frog brain kainate binding protein selectively recognizes an unknown protein in mammalian brain migrating at Mr approximately 100,000. We now show that this antibody recognizes the major component of the purified AMPA binding protein, supporting a structural similarity between the frog brain kainate binding protein and the mammalian AMPA binding protein. 相似文献

α-[3 H]Amino-3-Hydroxy-5-Methyl-4-Isoxazolepropionic Acid Binding to Rat Striatal Membranes: Effects of Selective Brain Lesions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The binding of alpha-[3H]amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid ([3H]AMPA), a structural Glu analog, to rat striatal membranes was studied. In the absence of potassium thiocyanate and Cl-/Ca2+, saturation-curve analysis of [3H]AMPA binding suggested that a single class of noninteracting binding sites with a KD value of 340 +/- 27 nM was involved, although AMPA inhibition of [3H]AMPA binding set at a concentration of 100 nM suggested, in contrast, the presence of multiple populations of striatal binding sites. Several other excitatory amino acid receptor agonists and antagonists were tested, and the most potent and selective quisqualic acid (QA) receptor agonists (QA, L-Glu, and AMPA) were found to represent the most potent inhibitors of [3H]AMPA binding. N-Methyl-D-aspartate receptor agonists and antagonists were ineffective as displacers of the [3H]AMPA binding. Lesions of intrastriatal neurons (using kainic acid local injections) and of corticostriatal afferent fibers led 2-3 weeks later to large decreases (63 and 30%, respectively) in striatal [3H]AMPA binding, whereas selective lesion of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic pathway (using nigral injection of 6-hydroxy-dopamine) was without any influence. Taken together, these results suggest that [3H]AMPA binding is primarily associated with postsynaptic intrastriatal neurons. Some [3H]AMPA binding sites may also be located presynaptically on corticostriatal nerve endings. So, in addition to the possibility that [3H]AMPA binding sites may be involved in corticostriatal synaptic transmission, it is interesting that these putative QA-preferring excitatory amino acid receptor sites may also play some role in autoregulatory processes underlying this excitatory synaptic transmission. 相似文献

Using quantitative autoradiography, we have investigated the binding sites for the potent competitive non-N-methyl-D-aspartate (non-NMDA) glutamate receptor antagonist [3H]6-cyano-7-nitro-quinoxaline-2,3-dione ([3H]-CNQX) in rat brain sections. [3H]CNQX binding was regionally distributed, with the highest levels of binding present in hippocampus in the stratum radiatum of CA1, stratum lucidum of CA3, and molecular layer of dentate gyrus. Scatchard analysis of [3H]CNQX binding in the cerebellar molecular layer revealed an apparent single binding site with a KD = 67 +/- 9.0 nM and Bmax = 3.56 +/- 0.34 pmol/mg protein. In displacement studies, quisqualate, L-glutamate, and kainate also appeared to bind to a single class of sites. However, (R,S)-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) displacement of [3H]CNQX binding revealed two binding sites in the cerebellar molecular layer. Binding of [3H]AMPA to quisqualate receptors in the presence of potassium thiocyanate produced curvilinear Scatchard plots. The curves could be resolved into two binding sites with KD1 = 9.0 +/- 3.5 nM, Bmax = 0.15 +/- 0.05 pmol/mg protein, KD2 = 278 +/- 50 nM, and Bmax = 1.54 +/- 0.20 pmol/mg protein. The heterogeneous anatomical distribution of [3H]CNQX binding sites correlated to the binding of L-[3H]glutamate to quisqualate receptors and to sites labeled with [3H]AMPA. These results suggest that the non-NMDA glutamate receptor antagonist [3H]CNQX binds with equal affinity to two states of quisqualate receptors which have different affinities for the agonist [3H]AMPA. 相似文献

Abstract: Nitric oxide release is reported to be involved in physiological processes associated with altered sensitivity of the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid (AMPA) class of glutamate receptor. A series of compounds liberating nitric oxide were therefore tested for their ability to modulate in vitro the characteristics of [3 H]AMPA binding to sections of rat brain. Pretreatment of forebrain or cerebellar sections with sodium nitroprusside (1 m M ), S -nitroso- N -acetylpenicillamine (SNAP, 200 µ M ), glyceryl trinitrate (1 µ M ), or isosorbide dinitrate (0.5 m M ) all increased the binding of 3 n M [3 H]AMPA by 15–30%. These actions were reproduced by 8-bromo-cyclic GMP (200 µ M ) in the cerebellum but not in the forebrain. In a similar manner, the effect of SNAP was attenuated by an inhibitor of cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase in the cerebellum but not in the forebrain. The elevated [3 H]AMPA binding observed after pretreatment with SNAP was caused by an increase in binding affinity, but the capacity of the sites was unchanged. Autoradiographic analysis showed that forebrain binding was enhanced in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus but not in the striatum. Nitric oxide therefore appears to be able to increase the affinity of AMPA binding sites via two distinct mechanisms in different brain areas. This action may contribute to synaptic plasticity associated with nitric oxide release. 相似文献

Abstract: [3 H]Kainate bound to chick cerebellar membranes with a K D of 0.6 μ M and with an exceptionally high B max of 165 pmol/mg of protein. In octylglucoside-solubilised extracts, the affinity of [3 H]kainate was reduced ( K D = 2.7 μ M ), but the B max was relatively unchanged (130 pmol/mg of protein). The rank potency of competitive ligands was domoate > kainate > 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX) > glutamate. Binding sites for α-[3 H]amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazolepropionate ([3 H]AMPA) were much less abundant, with K D and B max values in membranes of 86 n M and I pmol/mg of protein, respectively. The affinity of [3 H]AMPA binding was also reduced on solubilisation ( K D = 465 n M ), but there was an increase in the B max (1.7 pmol/mg of protein). Quisqualate and CNQX were the most effective displacers of [3 H]AMPA binding, but kainate was also a relatively potent inhibitor. However, in contrast to the displacement profile for [3 H]kainate, domoate was markedly less potent than kainate at displacing [3 H]AMPA. These results suggest that [3 H]AMPA binds to a small subset of the kainate sites that, unlike the majority of the [3 H]kainate binding protein, which has been reported to be located in the Bergmann glia, may represent neuronal unitary non- N -methyl-D-aspartate receptors. 相似文献

Abstract: Quantitative α-[3H]amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-isoxazole-4-propionic acid ([3H]AMPA) binding autoradiography was performed on frozen-thawed sections from rat brain after preincubation at 0 or 35°C for 1 h. Preincubation at 35°C instead of 0°C resulted in a selective decrease of [3H]AMPA binding assayed at a low concentration of [3H]-AMPA (50 nM) and an enhancement of binding at a high concentration (500 nM). The decrease in [3H]AMPA binding after preincubation at 35°C was accompanied with the loss of the lighter organelles of P3 (microsomal) fractions. These organelles were found to contain a small subpopulation of AMPA/GluR receptors exhibiting a high affinity for [3H]AMPA(KD~14 nM), whereas heavier organelles exhibited lower affinity for AMPA (KD~190 nM). This small subpopulation of AMPA/GluR receptors contained almost exclusively a structurally distinct species of GluR2/3 subunits with an apparent molecular mass of 103.5 kDa (assessed with anti-GluR2/3, C-terminal antibodies). Experiments using two deglycosylating enzymes, N-glycopeptidase F and endoglycosidase H, clearly indicated that the 103.5-kDa species represented a partially unglycosylated form of GluR2/3 subunits containing the high-mannose type of oligosaccharide moiety, whereas receptors present in synaptosomal fractions were composed of subunits with complex oligosaccharides. A similar result was obtained by using an antibody recognizing the N-terminal domain of GluR2(4). The same enzymatic treatment indicated that GluR1 subunits also exhibited a partially glycosylated form. These data indicate that high-affinity [3H]AMPA binding sites represent nonsynaptic, intracellular membrane-bound AMPA receptors that differ from synaptic receptors by at least the glycosylation state of GluR2 (and GluR1) subunits. In addition, our results provide a relatively simple way of assessing changes in two spatially and structurally distinct [3H]AMPA binding/GluR sites. 相似文献

The binding of alpha-[3H]amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid ([3H]AMPA), a selective ligand for the ion channel-linked quisqualate receptor, was evaluated in Triton X-100-treated membranes of human cerebral cortex. The presence of chaotropic ions produced divergent effects on specific [3H]AMPA binding: A twofold increase in the binding was observed with thiocyanide at 100 mM, although iodide (100 mM) and perchlorate (100 mM) reduced the binding. Chemical modifications of the sulfhydryl group with p-chloromercuriphenylsulfonic acid (PCMBS) produced threefold increases in specific [3H]-AMPA binding in the absence of KSCN as well as in the presence of KSCN. Treatment with dithiothreitol restored the enhanced specific [3H]AMPA binding by PCMBS to the basal level. Although specific [3H]AMPA binding in the absence of KSCN showed a single site (KD = 220 nM, Bmax = 235 fmol/mg of protein), curvilinear Scatchard plots of specific [3H]AMPA binding in the presence of 100 mM KSCN can be resolved into two binding sites with the following parameters: KD1 = 5.82 nM, Bmax1 = 247 fmol/mg of protein; KD2 = 214 nM, Bmax2 = 424 fmol/mg of protein. Quisqualate and AMPA were the most potent inhibitors of the [3H]AMPA binding in the presence of KSCN. Potent inhibitors of the binding included beta-N-oxalylamino-L-alanine (L-BOAA), cysteine-S-sulfate, L-glutamate, 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione, and 6,7-dinitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione. Kainate, L-homocysteine sulfinic acid, and L-homocysteic acid were active with an IC50 value of a micromolar concentration, whereas L-cysteic acid and L-cysteine sulfinic acid were weakly active.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

alpha-[3H]Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazolepropionate ([3H]AMPA) binds to 1-day-old chick telencephalon membranes with KD and Bmax values of 138 nM and 2.56 pmol/mg of protein, respectively. High-energy radiation bombardment of intact frozen telencephalon resulted in a biphasic inactivation curve for [3H]AMPA binding. At a 5.8-Mrad radiation dose, the affinity of [3H]AMPA binding was increased (54 nM), but there was no apparent alteration in the Bmax value (2.76 pmol/mg of protein). We attribute this phenomenon to the inactivation of a high molecular weight modulatory protein that down-regulates the affinity of [3H]AMPA binding. The estimated molecular masses of the AMPA binding site and of the modulatory component were 59 and 108 kDa, respectively. Solubilisation with n-octyl-beta-glucopyranoside resulted in an increase in the Bmax (4.7 pmol/mg of protein) with no pronounced alteration in the affinity (109 nM) of [3H]AMPA binding. However, the solubilisation-induced increase in Bmax did not occur in telencephalon irradiated before solubilisation. In contrast, the increase in affinity induced by radiation treatment was still detected in solubilised extracts. These results suggest that the number and affinity of [3H]AMPA sites in chick telencephalon are closely regulated and that the modulatory systems involved are affected by both irradiation and solubilisation. 相似文献
