Neonatal brain development in the rat is adversely affected by malnutrition. Alterations in tissue binding of IGF-I in the malnourished brain were tested in rat pups from mothers who were fed a 20% protein diet (C) or a 4% protein diet (M) starting from day 21 of gestation and continued throughout suckling. IGF-I binding in both cortex and cerebellum decreased progressively in C and M groups from day 6 to day 13. At day 9, 11, and 13, the binding was significantly greater (p < 0.02) in M compared to C groups. To investigate whether these changes might be related to the alteration in receptor activity, membranes were incubated with 125I-IGF in the presence of excess insulin with or without unlabeled IGF-I. In the absence of insulin, specific IGF-I binding in the M group was increased by 41.8 ± 13.8% (mean ± SEM p < 0.05) relative to C group. Insulin produced a consistent but incomplete inhibition of binding in both C and M, of 75% and 67% respectively. In addition, the specific IGF-I binding in the presence of insulin was increased in M group by 70.2 ± 9.4% relative to C, p < 0.05. To characterize the nature of this binding, cerebral cortical membranes, from both groups, incubated with 125I-IGF-I were cross-linked, and electro-phoresed on 6% and 10% SDS-PAGE gels under reducing conditions. Autoradiography of the 6% gel showed two specific bands at 115 kD and 240 kD, consistent with monomeric and dimeric forms of the IGF-I receptor, which were inhibited by excess insulin. In contrast, a 10% gel showed an additional band at 35 kD (IGF-binding protein) that was not inhibited by insulin. In both gels, membrane preparations from the M group showed a heightened intensity of the bands relative to C. The increase in binding protein relative to the receptor suggests a disequilibrium that may limit the availability of exogenous IGF-I to the tissues. 相似文献

Abstract: The contents of five synaptic membrane antigens (56K, 58K, 62K, 63K, and 64K) were determined in rat cerebral cortex and cerebellum at eight developmental time points: E9, E14, P < 1, P5, P14, P28, P60, and P180 (E, embryonic; P, postnatal). In cerebral cortex, the five antigens showed five different developmental patterns with respect both to specific content (i.e., quantity per unit of membrane) and total content (i.e., quantity per cortex). The 56K, 58K, and 62K polypeptides were first detected at E14, increased slightly to P5, then increased rapidly from P5 to P28 by 14-, 11-, and 18-fold, respectively. From P28 to PI80, the patterns of these antigens showed very large differences. The 63K and 64K antigens were first detected at P14 and P28, respectively. The specific content of 63K antigen continued to increase steadily throughout adult life; in contrast, the specific content of the 64K antigen did not change appreciably. In cerebellum only three antigens (56K, 58K, and 62K) were detected. These three antigens showed different developmental patterns. The 56K polypeptide was first detected at E14; its specific content increased very rapidly to a maximum at P < 1; it then decreased, first slowly, and then more rapidly, disappearing at P60. The 58K polypeptide also was detectable at E14 and increased very rapidly to a maximum at P < 1. It then decreased markedly to P5, followed by an increase, returning almost to its maximum level at P14. It then slowly decreased disappearing at P180. The 62K antigen was first detected at P14 and then it slowly decreased with disappearance at P60. The patterns with respect to total contents per cerebellum were similar for the three antigens, with a maximum at P28. We conclude that the highest increase in the contents of these antigens roughly corresponds to the period of maximal synaptogenesis (P9 to P28) in both regions. Differences among developmental patterns probably reflect changing molecular machinery required for development and functional differentiation of synapses in different brain regions. The fine structure of these patterns suggests that the quantitative measurement of synaptic membrane antigens will be useful for delineating complex processes occurring during synaptogenesis. 相似文献

Mechanism of Arachidonic Acid Liberation During Ischemia in Gerbil Cerebral Cortex 总被引:20,自引:15,他引:5

Once brain ischemia was induced in the gerbil cerebral fronto-parietal cortex, serial changes occurred in energy metabolites and various lipids. The amounts of inositol-containing phospholipids began to decrease immediately after energy failure, followed by an increase in the amount of 1,2-diacylglycerol with a subsequent liberation of arachidonic acid and other free fatty acids. The fatty acid compositions of inositol-containing phospholipids, of 1,2-diacylglycerols produced by ischemia, and of free fatty acids liberated during ischemia were quite similar. The amount of stearic acid liberated was much larger than that of arachidonic acid between 30 s and 1 min of ischemia. On the other hand, there was no significant decrease in the amount of the other phospholipids except for phosphatidic acid. Furthermore, there was also no change in the fatty acid composition of phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidylethanolamine throughout 15 min of ischemia. The amount of cytidine-monophosphate reached a peak (36.7 nmol/g wet wt) at 2 min of ischemia. These results indicated that arachidonic acid was predominantly liberated from inositol-containing phospholipids by phospholipase C, and by the diglyceride lipase and monoglyceride lipase system rather than from phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidylethanolamine by phospholipase A2 or plasmalogenase or choline phosphotransferase during the early period of ischemia. 相似文献

Developmental Changes in Polypeptide Composition of, and Precursor Incorporation into, Cellular and Subcellular Fractions of Rat Cerebral Cortex 总被引:4,自引:4,他引:0
Abstract: Neuronal-enriched and glial-enriched fractions from rat cerebral cortex at 2. 5, 9, 14 and 23 days postnatally, and subcellular fractions from 2, 14 and 46 day old rat were prepared. The polypeptide composition of all fractions was analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electro-phoresis and quantified by densitometry. Fifty-nine polypeptides (mol. wts., 13,200–251,000) were resolved in the cell fractions of which the majority remained unchanged throughout postnatal development. Three polypeptides (mol. wts., 102,000, 56,000, 53,700) were found to increase in amount devel-opmentally in both cellular fractions, the latter two showing a peak in relative amount on day 14 and a subsequent decline. Three polypeptides (mol. wts., 47,000, 28,200, 17,400) were found to be common to the glial-enriched fraction as well as the myelin fraction, and all showed a developmental increase. The neuronal-enriched fraction was found to be enriched in five polypeptides of which one (mol. wt., 51,900) showed a developmental increase after ten days postnatally, the others (mol. wts., 178,700, 142,000, 109,000, 24,000) showing a decrease. In vitro incorporation of [35 S]-methionine into the glial-enriched fraction was carried out, and a developmental decline was observed in the labelling of a polypeptide of 42,000 mol. wt. 相似文献

1. Neuropeptide Y is found throughout the central nervous system where it appears to play a wide range of often poorly understood functions. In this study, the distribution of neuropeptide Y immunoreactive (NPY-ir) neurons in the brainstem, cerebellum, and cerebral cortex of human fetuses ranging in age from 11 gestational weeks to term was investigated by immunohistochemistry. 2. The NPY-ir cells were detected in the dorsal and ventral rostral midbrain and the interpeduncular nucleus by 21 weeks and 32 weeks of gestation, respectively. Although no positive cells were found in the pons, the NPY-ir fibers were detected there at 32 gestational weeks. 3. The vagal, hypoglossal, and olivary nuclei of the medulla oblongata contained immunoreactive cells by week 21 and the medullary reticular formation by week 25 of gestation. In most of these locations, both the number and size of neuropeptide Y positive cells were greater at birth and reached maximal values of 100-400 cells per 1 mm2 and 2-5 microm in diameter, respectively. 4. In the cerebellum, numerous NPY-ir horizontal and granule cells, as well as the cells within the dentate nucleus were observed as early as 21 weeks of gestation. 5. The NPY-ir cells were also detected in the developing cerebral cortex, with the earliest activity observed within the temporal cortex at 14 weeks of gestation. By week 21, positive cells appeared in the visual, frontal, sensory, and motor cortices. Most of these cells were bipolar or multipolar in morphology but their numbers at birth were relatively low. 6. Our results show a wide distribution of the NPY-ir cells in the developing human brain and offer supporting evidence for the important modulatory role of NPY in both the fetus and adult. 相似文献

Metabolic Changes in Cerebral Cortex, Hippocampus, and Cerebellum During Sustained Bicuculline-Induced Seizures 总被引:7,自引:6,他引:1
Abstract— The objective of the present experiments was to study metabolic correlates to the localization of neuronal lesions during sustained seizures. To that end, status epilepticus was induced by i.v. administration of bicuculline in immobilized and artificially ventilated rats, since this model is known to cause neuronal cell damage in cerebral cortex and hippocampus but not in the cerebellum. After 20 or 120 min of continuous seizure activity, brain tissue was frozen in situ through the skull bone, and samples of cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum were collected for analysis of glycolytic metabolites, phosphocreatine (PCr), ATP, ADP, AMP, and cyclic nucleotides. After 20 min of seizure activity, the two “vulnerable” structures (cerebral cortex and hippocampus) and the “resistant” one (cerebellum) showed similar changes in cerebral metabolic state, characterized by decreased tissue concentrations of PCr, ATP, and glycogen, and increased lactate concentrations and lactate/ pyruvate ratios. In all structures, though, the adenylate energy charge remained close to control. At the end of a 2-h period of status epilepticus, a clear deterioration of the energy state was observed in the cerebral cortex and the hippocampus, but not in the cerebellum. The reduction in adenylate energy charge in the cortex and hippocampus was associated with a seemingly paradoxical decrease in tissue lactate levels and with failure of glycogen resynthesis (cerebral cortex). Experiments with infusion of glucose during the second hour of a 2-h period of status epilepticus verified that the deterioration of tissue energy state was partly due to reduced substrate supply; however, even in animals with adequate tissue glucose concentrations, the energy charge of the two structures was significantly lowered. The cyclic nucleotides (cAMP and cGMP) behaved differently. Thus, whereas cAMP concentrations were either close to control (hippocampus and cerebellum) or moderately increased (cerebral cortex), the cGMP concentrations remained markedly elevated throughout the seizure period, the largest change being observed in the cerebellum. It is concluded that although the localization of neuronal damage and perturbation of cerebral energy state seem to correlate, the results cannot be taken as. evidence that cellular energy failure is the cause of the damage. Thus, it appears equally probable that the pathologically enhanced neuronal activity (and metabolic rate) underlies both the cell damage and the perturbed metabolic state. The observed changes in cyclic nucleotides do not appear to bear a causal relationship to the mechanisms of damage. 相似文献

Abstract: Methionine adenosyltransferase (MAT) activity was evaluated in cerebral cortex and cerebellum in controls and in rats treated with thyroxine. In controls the enzyme showed a different pattern in cerebral cortex and cerebellum during neonatal and late suckling periods. Hyperthyroid rats showed a significant increase of the enzyme in cerebral cortex only at the 2nd day of the neonatal period; in cerebellum the developmental pattern of MAT in neonatal period was anticipated temporally by 2–4 days. During the late suckling period thyroxine treatment produced in cerebellum a significant decrease in MAT activity at the 15th day after birth. From these data, we propose that hyperthyroidism may cause precocious induction of MAT both in cerebral cortex and in cerebellum and that the increased availability of S -adenosyll-methionine during the neonatal period could be related to its utilization also in polyamine biosynthesis. 相似文献

Plasmalogens are ether-linked phospholipids highly abundant in nervous tissue. Previously we demonstrated that acute administration of myo-inositol (myo-Ins) + [2-13C] ethanolamine ([2-13C]Etn) significantly elevated phosphatidylethanolamine plasmalogen (PlsEtn) in rat whole brain. Current experiments investigated the effects of acute myo-Ins+[2-13C]Etn administration on [PlsEtn] and the biosynthesis of new Etn lipids using NMR spectroscopy in rat cerebral cortex, hippocampus, brainstem, midbrain and cerebellum. Treated rats received a single dose of myo-Ins+[2-13C]Etn and controls received saline rather than myo-Ins. Data reveal that the cerebellum is the brain region most affected by treatment, which resulted in a 22% increase in [PlsEtn] and 89% increase in newly synthesized Etn lipids relative to controls (P 0.05). Furthermore, the cerebellar PlsEtn/phosphatidylethanolamine ratio and molar percentage of PlsEtn were significantly elevated by 12% and 8%, respectively (P 0.05). These data suggest that myo-Ins influences Etn lipid metabolism in brain, particularly in the cerebellum where there is a stimulation in the biosynthesis of new Etn lipids with a preference towards PlsEtn. 相似文献

Local Cerebral Glucose Utilization During Development and Aging of the Fischer-344 Rat 总被引:6,自引:5,他引:1

Abstract: Local cerebral glucose utilization was measured in brain regions of awake Fischer-344 rats. Measurements were taken in 15 regions of 1-month-old rats, and 19 regions of 3-, 12-, 24-, and 34-month-old rats. Between 1 and 3 months, glucose utilization tended to increase in all brain regions; statistically significant increases occurred in seven regions. Between the ages of 3 and 12 months, glucose utilization decreased significantly in 12 regions. The greatest reductions (25% or more) occurred in the striatum, inferior colliculus, and pons, but the hypothalamus and thalamus, nucleus accumbens, and septum showed no statistically significant change. Cerebral glucose utilization did not change between 12 and 24 months or between 24 and 34 months of age. The results demonstrate a rise in cerebral glucose utilization with development from 1 to 3 months, a decline between 3 and 12 months, and a constancy in the second and third years that does not reflect reported senescence-associated neurochemical and morphological cerebral changes. 相似文献

Changes in the concentrations of nervous tissue-related proteins and their isoproteins, such as S-100 proteins (S-100 alpha and S-100 beta), enolase isozymes (alpha-enolase and gamma-enolase), and GTP-binding proteins (Go alpha, Gi2 alpha, and beta-subunits), were determined in the CNS of male rats of various ages (from 2 to 30 months old) by means of enzyme immunoassay. The weights of brains and the concentrations of soluble proteins in the cerebral cortex, cerebellum, and brainstem were constant during the observation period. The concentration of S-100 beta protein, which is predominantly localized in glial cells, increased gradually in the cerebral cortex with age; levels in the 25-month-old rats increased to approximately 150% of the levels in the young (2-month-old) rats. However, the S-100 beta concentrations in the cerebellum and brainstem were relatively constant, showing similar values in rats 2-30 months old. Levels of other proteins, including both neuronal (gamma-enolase and Go alpha) and glial (alpha-enolase and S-100 alpha) marker proteins, did not change significantly with age in the cerebral cortex, cerebellum, and brainstem. These results suggest that there is a close relation between the age-dependent changes of the CNS function and S-100 beta protein levels in the cerebral cortex. 相似文献

Hydrolysis of 1-acyl-2-[14C]arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine was studied in cerebral cortex homogenate and subcellular fractions. The enzyme(s) confined to the synaptic plasma membrane (SPM) hydrolyze(s) [14C-arachidonoyl]phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) in the presence of EGTA to [14C-arachidonoyl]diacylglycerol (DAG) and a small amount of [14C]arachidonic acid (AA). Degradation of PE is time-, protein- and substrate-dependent with a pH optimum of 7.8. The highest activity of PE degradation was observed in the presence of 10 mM EGTA. Under this condition GTPS has no effect on PE hydrolysis. In the presence of Ca2+ ions degradation of PE was significantly lower as compared to the conditions with EGTA. However, the percentage distribution of free AA in the sum of both products of PE hydrolysis (AA + DAG) increases from 16 and 20% observed in the presence of EGTA 2 mM and 10 mM to 34% and 43% in the presence of 0.5 mM CaCl2 alone and together with GTPS, respectively. Cytosolic enzymes also degrade PE in the presence of 2 mM EGTA with the formation of DAG and AA. Radioactivity in the AA represents about 80% of the total radioactivity of the products of PE degradation. The hydrolysis of PE by cytosolic enzymes is almost completely inhibited by neomycin but the hydrolysis by the SPM-bound enzyme(s) is inhibited only 70%. Other studies with quinacrine indicated that only a small pool of PE is degraded by SPM-bound Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2 (PLA2). All of these data suggest that PE in cerebral cortex is mainly degraded by cytosolic and SPM-bound Ca2+-independent phospholipase C. Further studies towards a better understanding of the mechanisms of cerebral degradation and the physiological significance of Ca2+-independent pathways of PE hydrolysis are necessary. 相似文献

The maximum rate (Vmax) of some mitochondrial enzymatic activities related to the energy transduction (citrate synthase, -ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, cytochrome oxidase) and amino acid metabolism (glutamate dehydrogenase, glutamate-pyruvate-transaminase, glutamate-oxaloacetate-transaminase) was evaluated in non-synaptic (free) and intra-synaptic mitochondria from rat brain cerebral cortex. Three types of mitochondria were isolated from rats subjected to i.p. treatment with L-acetylcarnitine at two different doses (30 and 60 mg·kg–1, 28 days, 5 days/week). In control (vehicle-treated) animals, enzyme activities are differently expressed in non-synaptic mitochondria respect to intra-synaptic light and heavy ones. In fact, -ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, glutamate-pyruvate-transaminase and glutamate-oxaloacetate-transaminase are lower, while citrate synthase, cytochrome oxidase and glutamate dehydrogenase are higher in intra-synaptic mitochondria than in non-synaptic ones. This confirms that in various types of brain mitochondria a different metabolic machinery exists, due to their location in vivo. Treatment with L-acetylcarnitine decreased citrate synthase and glutamate dehydrogenase activities, while increased cytochrome oxidase and -ketoglutarate dehydrogenase activities only in intra-synaptic mitochondria. Therefore in vivo administration of L-acetylcarnitine mainly affects some specific enzyme activities, suggesting a specific molecular trigger mode of action and only of the intra-synaptic mitochondria, suggesting a specific subcellular trigger site of action. 相似文献

Studies on acute hyperammonemic models suggest a role of oxidative stress in neuropathology of ammonia toxicity. Mostly, a
low grade chronic type hyperammonemia (HA) prevails in patients with liver diseases and causes derangements mainly in cerebellum
associated functions. To understand whether cerebellum responds differently than other brain regions to chronic type HA with
respect to oxidative stress, this article compares active levels of all the antioxidant enzymes vis a vis extent of oxidative
damage in cerebral cortex and cerebellum of rats with acute and chronic HA induced by intra-peritoneal injection of ammonium
acetate (successive doses of 10 × 103 & 8 × 103 μmol/kg b.w. at 30 min interval for acute and 8 × 103 μmol/kg b.w. daily up to 3 days for chronic HA). As compared to the respective control sets, cerebral cortex of acute HA rats
showed significant decline (P < 0.01–0.001) in the levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) but with no change in
glutathione reductase (GR). In cerebellum of acute HA rats, SOD, catalase and GR though declined significantly, GPx level
was found to be stable. Contrary to this, during chronic HA, levels of SOD, catalase and GPx increased significantly in cerebral
cortex, however, with a significant decline in the levels of SOD and GPx in cerebellum. The results suggest that most of the
antioxidant enzymes decline during acute HA in both the brain regions. However, chronic HA induces adaptive changes, with
respect to the critical antioxidant enzymes, in cerebral cortex and renders cerebellum susceptible to the oxidative stress.
This is supported by ∼ 2- and 3-times increases in the level of lipid peroxidation in cerebellum during chronic and acute
HA respectively, however, with no change in the cortex due to chronic HA. 相似文献

Differential Uptake of Lithium Isotopes by Rat Cerebral Cortex and Its Effect on Inositol Phosphate Metabolism 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Twenty hours following the subcutaneous administration of 5 mEq/kg doses of 6LiCl and 7LiCl to two groups of rats, the cerebral cortex molar ratio of 6Li+/7Li+ is 1.5. The effects of the lithium isotopes on cortex myo-inositol and myo-inositol-l-phosphate levels are the same as we have reported earlier: a Li+ concentration-dependent lowering of myo-inositol and increase in myo-inositol-1-phosphate. Thus 6LiCl, when administered at the same dose as 7LiCl, produces the larger effect on inositol metabolism. When the 6LiCl and 7LiCl doses were adjusted to 5 mEq/kg and 7 mEq/kg, respectively, the cortical lithium myo-inositol and myo-inositol-1-phosphate levels of each group of animals became approximately equal, suggesting that the isotope effect occurs at the level of tissue uptake, but not on inositol phosphate metabolism. The inhibition of myo-inositol-1-phosphatase by the two lithium isotopes in vitro showed no differential effect. The isotope effect on cerebral cortex uptake of lithium is in the same direction as that reported by others for erythrocytes and for the CSF/plasma ratio, but of larger magnitude. 相似文献

Abstract: Lysolecithin (lysoglycerophosphocholine, LPC) was isolated from rat cerebral cortex and quantitatively analyzed at various times after postdecapitative ischemic treatment. In addition, different procedures for extraction and analysis of the LPC in brain were evaluated. Results indicated that LPC can be quantitatively extracted into the organic phase using the conventional extraction procedure with chloroform-methanol (2:1, vol/ vol). However, care should be taken to avoid using strong acids, which can hydrolyze the alkenylether side chain of the plasmalogens, resulting in the release of 2-acyl-phospholipids. Quantitative GLC analysis using myris-toyl-LPC as internal standard revealed a level of 1.8 nmol LPC/mg protein in brain with acyl groups comprised mainly of 16:0, 18:0, and 18:1. The acyl group profile reflects that the LPC are derived mainly from phospho-lipase A2 action. An increase of 46% in the LPC level was observed at 1 min after ischemic treatment, but this was followed by a steady decline. Ischemia induced an increase in the LPC species that are enriched in 18:0 and 18:1 fatty acids. The transient appearance of LPC during ischemia further suggests that this phospholipid is undergoing active turnover, possibly hydrolysis by the lysophospholipase. This mechanism of action may account, at least in part, for the increase in both saturated and unsaturated fatty acids during the early phase of the ischemic treatment. 相似文献

To determine whether nitric oxide (NO) acts as a modulator of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mACh-R) function, we performed a radioligand receptor assay using [3H]quinuclidinyl benzylate ([3H]QNB), the NO radical (NO·) donor 3-(2-Hydroxy-1-methyl-2-nitrosohydrazino)-N-methyl-1-propanamine (NOC7) and a gerbil brain cortical membrane preparation. NOC7 (at 10 M, 100 M or 1 mM concentrations) significantly reduced the [3H]QNB binding Kd values (from 0.196 ± 0.009 nM in the control, to 0.151 ± 0.013, 0.144 ± 0.012 and 0.153 ± 0.007 nM respectively). NOC7 did not alter the displacement curves of atropine or carbachol. Reduction of SH groups with dithiothreitol, in the presence of the NO donor, significantly increased [3H]QNB binding affinity whereas alkylation by N-ethylmaleimide markedly decreased it. The observed enhancing effect on mACh-R binding affinity for [3H]QNB, may reflect conformational changes in the receptors mediated by the NO generated, and these changes might be explained by NO reactions with such groups through conditions supporting redox reactions intrinsic to the NO molecule, similar to those occurring in redox regulatory sites reported for other neurotransmitter pathways in the CNS. 相似文献

Neurochemical correlates of GABAergic synaptic transmission [binding, uptake, metabolism, and tissue content of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)] were investigated in the cortex of rats that had been given 27 mM bromide in drinking water for periods of time ranging from 1 day to 1 month. No effect of bromide on any of the parameters was found and it is concluded that chronic administration of bromide has no profound effect on GABAergic inhibitory system in the rat cortex. 相似文献
