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

The Binding of [3 H]AMPA, a Structural Analogue of Glutamic Acid, to Rat Brain Membranes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Binding of [3H]AMPA to rat brain membranes was investigated. The binding was saturable and reversible at physiological pH. Computer-aided Scatchard analysis of the binding data, as determined by using L-glutamic acid (L-GLU) to define nonspecific binding, suggested the presence of two independent binding sites, with KDS of 9 and 2440 nM, respectively. Additional freezing, thawing and washing sequences gave membranes with only one binding site, with a KD of 278 nM. [3H]AMPA binding exhibited the highest level in striatal membranes. A series of analogues of GLU and aspartic acid (ASP) were tested as inhibitors of [3H]AMPA binding. L-ASP and compounds which interact predominantly with N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor sites were inactive as inhibitors of [3H]AMPA binding, whereas L-GLU and compounds which interact predominantly with glutamic acid diethyl ester receptor sites were inhibitors with the same order of potency as that shown by the excitatory action in vivo. The result suggests that [3H]AMPA might represent binding to an excitatory GLU receptor. 相似文献

Excitatory amino acid receptor binding parameters were investigated in a spontaneous dog model of chronic hepatic encephalopathy. L-[3H]Glutamate, (+)-[3H]-5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5,10-im ine maleate ([3H]MK-801), [3H]kainate, and alpha-[3H]-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid ([3H]AMPA) binding experiments were performed using crude cerebrocortical synaptosomal membrane preparations from dogs with congenital portosystemic encephalopathy (PSE) and control dogs. There was no change in the affinity or density of L-[3H]-glutamate or [3H]MK-801 binding sites in dogs with congenital PSE compared with control dogs. However, in the PSE dogs there was a significant reduction in the density of [3H]kainate binding sites compared with control dogs and abolition of the low-affinity [3H]AMPA binding site. The relative binding capacity of PSE synaptosomal membranes for [3H]kainate and [3H]AMPA was expressed as the ratio Bmax/KD. There was a significant inverse correlation between the Bmax/KD ratio for [3H]AMPA binding and the worst grade of encephalopathy experienced by each dog. These results suggest that there is a significant perturbation of cerebrocortical non-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor binding in dogs with congenital PSE which may have relevance to the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy. 相似文献

Abstract: The effects of exogenous phospholipase A2 on the binding of α-[3H]amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate ([3H]AMPA) to rat cortical membranes in the presence of the chaotrope potassium thiocyanate were assessed. Pretreatment of membranes with secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) elicited a concentration-dependent decrease in specific [3H]AMPA binding due mainly to a decrease in affinity (KD). This observation, together with protease inhibitor and western blot evidence, suggest that the sPLA2 effect is not due to proteolysis. The sPLA2-evoked decrease was temperature and calcium dependent. Inclusion of the specific inhibitor oleoyloxyethyl phosphocholine or preincubation of the enzyme with reducing agents to degrade its secondary structure significantly reduced the sPLA2 inhibition. These results suggest that the effects of sPLA2 arise from an enzymatic action rather than a competitive interaction at the AMPA binding site. However, arachidonic acid, a major metabolite of sPLA2 action, did not cause a similar decrease in the affinity of [3H]AMPA binding. In contrast to the effects on [3H]AMPA binding, sPLA2 caused an increase in [3H]CNQX binding, which is in accordance with the functionality of the AMPA receptor complex. These results suggest that sPLA2 may play a role in the physiological and pathophysiological regulation of AMPA receptors. 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

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: Activation of the calcium-dependent protease calpain has been proposed to be a necessary step in the formation of long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus, and stimulation of N-methyl-d -aspartate (NMDA) receptors leads to an increase in intracellular calcium concentration, calpain activation, proteolysis of cytoskeletal elements, and modification of α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA) receptor properties. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of NMDA treatment of cultured hippocampal slices on the properties of AMPA receptors. Cultured hippocampal slices were treated with NMDA (100 µM) for 15 min and [3H]AMPA binding to membrane fractions was measured. NMDA-treated slices exhibited an increase in both “high-affinity” and “low-affinity” [3H]-AMPA binding, with smaller changes in 6-cyano-7-nitro[3H]quinoxaline-2,3-dione binding. The increase in [3H]AMPA binding was significantly reduced by preincubation of cultures with calpain inhibitor I or calpeptin (100 µM). Furthermore, NMDA exposure decreased the number of GluR1 subunits of AMPA receptors detected by an antibody against the C-terminal domain of the subunit in western blots and resulted in the formation of a lower molecular weight species detected by an antibody against the N-terminal domain. Both effects were completely prevented by calpain inhibitors. These results indicate that NMDA receptor activation produces calpain activation and complex modifications of AMPA receptor properties, which could be involved in NMDA receptor-mediated changes in synaptic efficacy. 相似文献

The effect of dopamine (DA) on the binding of [3H]phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate ([3H]PdBu) in cultured rat striatal cells was examined. DA maximally increased specific [3H]PdBu binding by 70 +/- 10%, an increase comparable to that observed with norepinephrine (NE). This finding suggests that DA activates protein kinase C in cultured striatal cells, because increases in [3H]PdBu binding reflect translocation of protein kinase C. Half-maximal stimulation was observed with 10(-6) M DA. The peak response was observed at 2-3 min after addition of 10(-4) M DA, but [3H]PdBu binding was still increased above basal at 30 min. DA was not acting via an adrenergic receptor. Prazosin (10(-6) M) blocked the response to NE, suggesting mediation by an alpha 1-adrenergic receptor, but had little effect on the response to DA. Conversely, the D1 receptor antagonist SCH-23390 (10(-6) M) blocked the response to DA, but only partially inhibited the response to NE. Morphine (10(-6) M) inhibited the response to DA by 46 +/- 14%, but did not affect significantly the response to NE. The DA effect on [3H]PdBu binding is apparently independent of the increase in cyclic AMP seen on D1 receptor activation. Forskolin, apomorphine, and the D1 agonist SKF-38393 all increased cyclic AMP in striatal cells, but were less effective than DA in stimulating [3H]PdBu binding. The D2 agonist quinpirole was ineffective in stimulating either cyclic AMP or [3H]PdBu binding. 相似文献

Quisqualate, a glutamate analogue, displaced L-[3H]glutamate binding in a biphasic manner, corresponding to "high-affinity" and "low-affinity" binding sites. High-affinity quisqualate sites were termed "quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate" binding sites. Quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate binding was regionally distributed, with the highest levels present in the cerebellar molecular layer. This binding was stimulated by millimolar concentrations of chloride and calcium. The stimulatory effects of calcium required the presence of chloride ions, whereas chloride's stimulatory effects did not require calcium. All of the L-[3H]glutamate binding stimulated by chloride/calcium was quisqualate sensitive and only weakly displaced by N-methyl-D-aspartate, L-aspartate, or kainate. At high concentrations (1 mM), the anion blockers 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid and 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid both reduced, by 41 and 43%, respectively, the stimulatory effects of chloride. At concentrations of 100 microM, kynurenate, L-aspartate, (RS)-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA), and L-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyric acid (L-APB) failed to displace quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate binding in the cerebellar molecular layer. In the presence of KSCN, however, 100 microM AMPA displaced 44% of binding. Quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate binding was not sensitive to freezing, and, in contrast to other chloride- and calcium-dependent L-[3H]glutamate binding sites that have been reported, quisqualate-sensitive binding observed by autoradiography was enhanced at 4 degrees C compared with 37 degrees C. Quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate binding likely represents binding to the subclass of postsynaptic neuronal glutamate receptors known as quisqualate receptors, rather than binding to previously described APB receptors, chloride-driven sequestration into vesicles, or binding to astrocytic membrane binding sites. 相似文献

Glutamate receptors belonging to the subclass specifically activated by alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid (AMPA) were solubilized from rat forebrain membranes with Triton X-100 and partially purified through a series of three chromatographic steps. Specific [3H]AMPA binding increased 30-60-fold during the isolation procedure. A protein band recognized by antibodies against specific amino acid sequences of the glutamate receptor-A subunit was enriched with each purification step; the molecular mass of this band (105 kDa) corresponded to that of cloned AMPA receptor subunits. Photoaffinity labeling of forebrain membranes with 6-cyano-7-[3H]nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione, a specific antagonist of the AMPA receptor, labeled a single band that comigrated with the immunolabeled protein. On reconstitution of the partially purified material into bilayer patches, single-channel current fluctuations were elicited by 300 nM AMPA and blocked by 1 microM 6,7-dinitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione. 相似文献

The binding properties of membrane-bound or solubilized AMPA (alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid)-type
glutamate receptors from rat brain were tested following exposure to ultraviolet (UV)_radiation or incubation with the thiol
reagent p-chloromercuriphenyl-sulfonic acid (PCMBS). Brief exposure to UV radiation (254 nm) increased [3H]AMPA binding to brain membranes, while binding to soluble fractions decreased. The increase in brain membrane binding was
caused by an apparent interconversion of low-affinity [3H]AMPA binding sites into a higher-affinity state. Incubation with PCMBS caused a significant increase in [3H]AMPA binding to brain membranes but had no significant effect on [3HAMPA binding to solubilized receptors. There was an interaction between the PCMBS and UV effects in the brain membranes such
that prior exposure to one of the treatments reduced the relative magnitude of the other's effects. The present results suggest
that ultraviolet radiation, PCMBS and solubilization all increase AMPA receptor binding affinity via a common mechanism. 相似文献

The effects of guanine nucleotides on binding of 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-[3H]dipropylxanthine ([3H]DPCPX), a highly selective A1 adenosine receptor antagonist, have been investigated in rat brain membranes and solubilized A1 receptors. GTP, which induces uncoupling of receptors from guanine nucleotide binding proteins, increased binding of [3H]DPCPX in a concentration-dependent manner. The rank order of potency for different guanine nucleotides for increasing [3H]DPCPX binding was the same as for guanine nucleotide-induced inhibition of agonist binding. Therefore, a role for a guanine nucleotide binding protein, e.g., Gi, in the regulation of antagonist binding is suggested. This was confirmed by inactivation of Gi by N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) treatment of membranes, which resulted in an increase in [3H]DPCPX binding similar to that seen with addition of GTP. Kinetic and equilibrium binding studies showed that the GTP- or NEM-induced increase in antagonist binding was not caused by an affinity change of A1 receptors for [3H]DPCPX but by an increased Bmax value. Guanine nucleotides had similar effects on membrane-bound and solubilized receptors, with the effects in the solubilized system being more pronounced. In the absence of GTP, when most receptors are in a high-affinity state for agonists, only a few receptors are labeled by [3H]DPCPX. It is suggested that [3H]DPCPX binding is inhibited when receptors are coupled to Gi. Therefore, uncoupling of A1 receptors from Gi by guanine nucleotides or by inactivation of Gi with NEM results in an increased antagonist binding. 相似文献

Abstract: A new AMPA receptor antagonist, Ro 48-8587, was characterized pharmacologically in vitro. It is highly potent and selective for AMPA receptors as shown by its effects on [3 H]AMPA, [3 H]kainate, and [3 H]MK-801 binding to rat brain membranes and on AMPA- or NMDA-induced depolarization in rat cortical wedges. [3 H]Ro 48-8587 bound with a high affinity ( K D = 3 n M ) to a single population of binding sites with a B max of 1 pmol/mg of protein in rat whole brain membranes. [3 H]Ro 48-8587 binding to rat whole brain membranes was inhibited by several compounds with the following rank order of potency: Ro 48-8587 > 6-nitro-7-sulphamoylbenzo[ f ]quinoxaline-2,3-dione (NBQX) > YM 90K > 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX) > quisqualate > AMPA > glutamate > kainate > NMDA. The distribution and abundance of specific binding sites (∼95% of total) in sections of rat CNS, revealed by quantitative receptor radioautography and image analysis, indicated a very discrete localization. Highest binding values were observed in cortical layers (binding in layers 1 and 2 > binding in layers 3–6), hippocampal formation, striatum, dorsal septum, reticular thalamic nucleus, cerebellar molecular layer, and spinal cord dorsal horn. At 1 n M , the values for specific binding were highest in the cortical layers 1 and 2 and lowest in the brainstem (∼2.6 and 0.4 pmol/mg of protein, respectively). Ro 48-8587 is a potent and selective AMPA receptor antagonist with improved binding characteristics (higher affinity, selectivity, and specific binding) compared with those previously reported. 相似文献

Abstract: Previous studies have shown that chemical modifications of sulfhydryl (SH–) groups with mercurial compounds in rat brain membrane preparations increase the binding of α -[3 H]-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid ([3 H]AMPA), a ligand for the quisqualate/AMPA type of glutamate receptors. In the present study we investigated the regional distribution of SH– group modification by quantitative analysis of autoradiographic images of [3 H]AMPA binding in tissue sections. We also compared the effect of SH– group modification to that of the chaotropic ion thiocyanate (SCN− ) which has been generally utilized to study [3 H]AMPA binding sites. Low levels of binding sites were observed in the absence of potassium thiocyanate (KSCN), with binding predominantly found in telencephalic structures. The presence of KSCN induced a relatively uniform and large (four- to fivefold) increase in binding throughout the different brain structures. Pretreatment of the tissue sections with the SH– group reagent p -chloromercuriphenylsulfonic acid produced a 0.5- to 1.5-fold increase in [3 H]AMPA binding. The enhanced binding displayed a regional variation with the largest increase in binding observed in the outer layer of the parietal cortex whereas the lowest increase occurred in the striatum. These results indicate that SH– group modification of tissue sections produces an increase in [3 H]AMPA binding similar to that observed in detergent-treated membrane preparations. Moreover they reveal that [3 H]AMPA binding sites in different brain regions vary in their susceptibility to modification by SH– reagents, suggesting the existence in brain of a heterogeneous distribution of quisqualate/AMPA receptor subtypes. 相似文献

Solubilisation and Characterisation of a Putative Quisqualate-Type Glutamate Receptor from Chick Brain 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
The brains of 1-day-old chicks were shown to be a rich source of binding sites with the pharmacological characteristics expected of a quisqualate-type glutamate receptor. alpha-[3H]Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazolepropionate ([3H]AMPA) bound with KD and Bmax values, measured at 0 degree C in the presence of the chaotrope potassium thiocyanate, of 55 nM and 2.6 pmol/mg protein. The regional localisations of [3H]AMPA and [3H]kainate binding sites were manifestly different. The membrane-bound [3H]AMPA binding sites were efficiently solubilised by N-octyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1%) in the presence of 0.2 M thiocyanate. In the detergent extract the affinity was 69 nM and there was an apparent increase in the number of sites (Bmax, 4.6 pmol/mg protein). The rank order of potency for competitive ligands in displacing [3H]AMPA binding was quisqualate approximately AMPA greater than 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione greater than L-glutamate greater than kainate and was identical for the membrane-bound and solubilised sites. Dissociation was biphasic with rate constants of 0.117 min-1 and 0.015 min-1. The association rate constants for [3H]AMPA at the solubilised sites were 1.45 x 10(6) M-1 min-1 and 6.55 x 10(6) M-1 min-1. The kinetically derived KD values were 80.7 nM and 2.3 nM. The detection of higher affinity binding sites by kinetic analysis but not by equilibrium binding may be explained by the greater sensitivity of dissociation data to small populations of high-affinity sites.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Abstract: Telencephalic membranes from rats of different embryonic (E16, E19) and postnatal (P2, P7, P14, adult) ages were assessed for α-[3 H]amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid ([3 H]AMPA) binding and for immunoreactivity levels of AMPA receptor subunits (GluR1, GluR2/3, and GluR4). In addition, the synaptic markers synaptophysin and NCAM140 (a neural cell adhesion molecule isoform) were examined by immunoblot. The density of [3 H]AMPA binding sites increased steadily with advancing age. This increase was due mainly to the development of the large low-affinity component ( K D = 400 n M ) that dominates the [3 H]AMPA binding profile of adult rat brain membranes. As resolved by two-site regression analysis, the high-affinity component ( K D = 15 n M ) of the [3 H]AMPA binding increased by approximately twofold from E16 to adult, whereas the low-affinity component increased by 25-fold. Staining for GluR1 and GluR2/3 increased steadily with increasing age at all time points examined; synaptophysin and NCAM140 exhibited similar ontogenic immunostaining profiles. GluR4 immunoreactivity was first evident at P14 and increased by adulthood. These results indicate that AMPA receptor density increases steadily during development and that this increase is coincident with the ontogenic expression of other synaptic components. Furthermore, there is a shift toward a preponderance of low-affinity [3 H]AMPA binding, which occurs during the period when AMPA receptors are being sorted into postsynaptic regions, suggesting that some element of the postsynaptic membrane environment modulates AMPA receptor properties. 相似文献

The dynamics of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazoleproprionic acid (AMPA)-type glutamate receptors, as represented by their exocytosis, endocytosis and cytoskeletal linkage, has often been implicated in N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)-dependent synaptic plasticity. To explore the molecular mechanisms underlying the AMPA receptor dynamics, cultured hippocampal neurons were stimulated with 100 microm NMDA, and the biochemical and pharmacological changes in the ligand binding activity of AMPA receptor complexes and its subunits, GluR1 and GluR2/3, were investigated. The NMDA treatment reduced the total amount of bound [(3)H]AMPA on the surface of the neurons but not in their total membrane fraction. This process was mimicked by a protein kinase C activator, phorbol ester, but blocked by an inhibitor of the same kinase, calphostin C. The NMDA-induced down-regulation of the ligand binding activity was also reflected by the decreased AMPA-triggered channel activity as well as by the cells' reduced immunoreactivity for GluR1. In parallel, the NMDA treatment markedly altered the interaction between the AMPA receptor subunits and their associating molecule(s); the association of PDZ molecules, including Pick1, with GluR2/3 was enhanced in a protein-kinase-C-dependent manner. Viral expression vectors carrying GluR1 and GluR2 C-terminal decoys, both fused to enhanced green fluorescent protein, were transfected into hippocampal neurons to disrupt their interactions. The overexpression of the C-terminal decoy for GluR2 specifically and significantly blocked the NMDA-triggered reduction in [(3)H]AMPA binding, whereas that for GluR1 had no effects. Co-immunoprecipitation using anti-Pick1 antibodies revealed that the overexpressed GluR2 C-terminal decoy indeed prevented Pick1 from interacting with the endogenous GluR2/3. Therefore, these observations suggest that the NMDA-induced down-regulation of the functional AMPA receptors involves the interaction between GluR2/3 subunits and Pick1. 相似文献

Abstract: This study evaluated the hypotheses that in vivo lead (Pb) exposure would alter α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid (AMPA) receptor binding and, based on known glutamate-dopamine interactions and Pb-induced changes in dopamine (DA) systems, that AMPA binding might be differentially influenced by DA agonist treatment under conditions of Pb exposure. Alterations in high-affinity ([3H]AMPA) versus total AMPA [6-[3H]cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione ([3H]CNQX)] receptor binding were determined in medial frontal cortex, dorsal striatum, and nucleus accumbens of rats exposed to 0, 50, or 150 ppm of Pb acetate for 2 weeks or 8 months. Additional 8-month groups received chronic intermittent treatment with saline, the D1 agonist SKF82958, or the general DA agonist apomorphine. Two-week exposures increased AMPA receptor densities, whereas robust decreases occurred after 8 months of Pb; at the latter time point changes were more pronounced for high-affinity than total AMPA receptor binding, with high-affinity effects expressed preferentially in dorsal striatum and nucleus accumbens. DA agonist treatments almost fully reversed Pb-related declines in [3H]AMPA binding but either had no effect (apomorphine) or even further potentiated (SKF82958) the decreases in [3H]CNQX binding. One possible basis for the long-term (8-month) decrease in AMPA binding is a postsynaptic glutamatergic stimulation of non-NMDA receptors. 相似文献

Chick neural retina cells contain functional L-type voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels sensitive to 1,4-dihydropyridines. To investigate the effects of chronic depolarization, cells were grown in medium containing elevated K+. After 4-h to 4-day treatments with elevated K+ (12-73 mM), there was a concentration-dependent decrease in high affinity [3H]PN200-110 binding. Saturation analysis of cells treated for 4 days with 40 mM K+ showed a reduction in maximum ligand binding with no change in affinity. Control and experimental Bmax values were 70.7 +/- 6.4 and 42.2 +/- 4.5 fmol/mg protein, respectively, and control and experimental KD values were 70.2 +/- 7.4 and 68.6 +/- 7.4 x 10(-12) M. The effect of chronic depolarization was time-dependent, reversible, and without effect on cellular protein content. Reduction in 45Ca2+ uptake following chronic depolarization correlated well with the reduction in [3H]PN200-110 binding. The calcium ionophore A23187, 10(-6) M for 24 h, also decreased the binding site density. The calcium channel antagonist D600 had no effect alone on [3H]PN200-110 binding; however, D600 blocked the down-regulation of calcium channels induced by chronic depolarization. The mechanism for Ca2+ channel down-regulation may involve calcium entry, since the effect was blocked by D600 and mimicked by the calcium ionophore A23187. Chronic depolarization with either elevated K+ or veratridine, or chronic treatment with A23187 had no effect on calcium channels in rat neonatal ventricular myocytes, although these cells express functional channels of the 1,4-dihydropyridine-sensitive class.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
