Coupling of CNS receptors to phosphoinositide turnover has previously been found to vary with both age and brain region. To determine whether the metabolism of the second messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate also displays such variations, activities of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5'-phosphatase and 3'-kinase were measured in developing rat cerebral cortex and adult rat brain regions. The 5'-phosphatase activity was relatively high at birth (approximately 50% of adult values) and increased to adult levels by 2 weeks postnatal. In contrast, the 3'-kinase activity was low at birth and reached approximately 50% of adult levels by 2 weeks postnatal. In the adult rat, activities of the 3'-kinase were comparable in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum, whereas much lower activities were found in hypothalamus and pons/medulla. The 5'-phosphatase activities were similar in cerebral cortex, hippocampus, hypothalamus, and pons/medulla, whereas 5- to 10-fold higher activity was present in the cerebellum. The cerebellum is estimated to contain 50-60% of the total inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5'-phosphatase activity present in whole adult rat brain. The localization of the enriched 5'-phosphatase activity within the cerebellum was examined. Application of a histochemical lead-trapping technique for phosphatase indicated a concentration of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5'-phosphatase activity in the cerebellar molecular layer. Further support for this conclusion was obtained from studies of Purkinje cell-deficient mutant mice, in which a marked decrement of cerebellar 5'-phosphatase was observed. These results suggest that the metabolic fate of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate depends on both brain region and stage of development. 相似文献

Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide Increases Acetylcholine Synthesis by Rat Hippocampal Slices 总被引:1,自引:7,他引:1
The purpose of this study was to determine whether vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) might have a presynaptic modulatory effect at cholinergic terminals in the rat hippocampal formation. The exposure of rat hippocampal slices to VIP increased [3H]acetylcholine ([3H]ACh) synthesis from the precursor [3H]choline when tissue was incubated in normal or in high K+ medium; the maximal effect was apparent at 10(-8) M VIP and 10(-7) M VIP, respectively. Also, 10(-7) M VIP increased the activity of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) in a hippocampal homogenate system. The increased synthesis by hippocampal slices was not the result of a VIP-induced alteration in either the basal release of ACh or the uptake of choline via the high-affinity uptake system. The increase in ACh synthesis induced by VIP in hippocampal slices was not associated with either adenylate cyclase or protein kinase C second messenger systems. There was no correlation between the effect of VIP on cyclic AMP production with that on ACh synthesis; also, forskolin, an activator of adenylate cyclase that increased cyclic AMP production 3.5-fold, did not mimic the effect of VIP on ACh synthesis. Similarly, there was no effect of the protein kinase C activator, phorbol myristate acetate, on ACh synthesis in hippocampal slices. However, the effect of VIP to increase ACh synthesis was not evident in the absence of extracellular calcium, suggesting that the effect of VIP is mediated by a calcium-requiring mechanism. The results suggest that, in the rat hippocampus, VIP has a presynaptic action at cholinergic terminals that results in enhanced synthesis of ACh, possibly by an action that alters ChAT activity. 相似文献

γ-Hydroxybutyrate Stimulation of the Formation of Cyclic GMP and Inositol Phosphates in Rat Hippocampal Slices 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
The presence of gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) (300-600 microM) in the incubation medium of rat hippocampal slices led to an increase of intracellular cyclic GMP and inositol phosphates. This phenomenon is dependent on the time and the dose of GHB used and might be the result of the stimulation of GHB receptor sites which are abundant in rat hippocampus. The increase of cyclic GMP and inositol phosphates is blocked by some anticonvulsants and opiate antagonists. These results seems to indicate that, like many substances inducing epileptic phenomena, GHB provokes neuronal depolarization in hippocampus which is accompanied by formation of cyclic GMP and inositol phosphates. The effect of opiate antagonists can be explained by the possible implication of an opiate synapse which mediates GHB effects in rat hippocampus. 相似文献

Rat hippocampal formation slices were prelabelled with [3H]inositol and stimulated with carbachol for times between 7 s and 3 min. The [3H]inositol metabolites in an acid extract of the slices were resolved with anion-exchange HPLC. Carbachol dramatically increased the concentration of [3H]inositol monophosphate, [3H]inositol bisphosphate (two isomers), [3H]inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate, [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, and [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. The levels of [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate rose most rapidly; they were maximally elevated after only 7 s and declined toward control levels in 1 min followed by a more sustained elevation in levels for up to 3 min. When [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate was incubated with hippocampal formation homogenates in an ATP-containing buffer it was very rapidly metabolised. After 5 min [3H]inositol 1,4-bisphosphate, [3H]inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate, and [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate could be detected in the homogenates. Under similar experimental conditions [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate is metabolised to [3H]inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate and an inositol bisphosphate isomer that is not [3H]inositol 1,4-bisphosphate. We conclude that like other tissues the primary event in the hippocampus following carbachol stimulation is the activation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate selective phospholipase C. 相似文献

Alterations of Inositol Lipid Metabolism of Rat Sciatic Nerve in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes 总被引:9,自引:8,他引:1
Abstract: The composition and metabolism of rat sciatic nerve phospholipids were studied 20 weeks after induction of chronic diabetes by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (50 mg/kg). On a wet weight basis the nerves from the diabetic animals showed a 7% decrease in total phospholipid from that of controls and a relative decrease in phosphatidylinositol. Incubations of isolated sciatic nerves of diabetic rats in a medium containing [33 P]orthophosphate gave decreased labeling of phosphatidylinositol and substantial changes in the labeling pattern of phosphatidylinositol phosphate and 4,5-bisphosphate from that of controls. The ratio of label in these polyphosphoinositides decreased from 2.5 for normal nerve to about 1.0 for diabetic nerve within a 2-h incubation period. These metabolic alterations were not observed in acutely diabetic animals 5 days after streptozotocin (100 mg/kg) administration. Because polyphosphoinositides may be involved in the control of membrane permeability during axonal conduction, alterations in their relative amounts or turnover rates could be related to the physiological changes of early diabetic neuropathy. 相似文献

Differential Effects of Lithium on Muscarinic Receptor Stimulation of Inositol Phosphates in Rat Cerebral Cortex Slices 总被引:18,自引:13,他引:5
The accumulation of labelled inositol mono-, bis-, and trisphosphate in rat cerebral cortex slices was examined following preincubation with [3H]inositol. The muscarinic receptor agonist carbachol produced a rapid and sustained increased accumulation of each labelled inositol phosphate both in the presence and absence of 5 mM lithium. Lithium potentiated carbachol-stimulated accumulation of inositol monophosphate (EC50 0.5 mM) and inositol bisphosphate (EC50 4 mM) in a concentration-dependent manner. However, exposure to lithium in the presence of the muscarinic agonist produced a concentration- and time-dependent inhibition of inositol trisphosphate accumulation that was not related to receptor desensitisation. Although the present data do suggest that polyphosphoinositides are substrates for agonist-stimulated phospholipase C in brain, these results may not be entirely consistent with the production of inositol mono- and bisphosphate through inositol trisphosphate dephosphorylation. Furthermore, these data suggest site(s) additional to inositol monophosphatase that are affected by lithium. 相似文献

Coupling of Inositol Phospholipid Metabolism with Excitatory Amino Acid Recognition Sites in Rat Hippocampus 总被引:30,自引:16,他引:14

Ibotenate, a rigid structural analogue of glutamate, markedly enhances the hydrolysis of membrane inositol phospholipids, as reflected by the stimulation of [3H]inositol monophosphate formation in rat hippocampal slices prelabeled with [3H]inositol and treated with Li+. Quisqualate, homocysteate, L-glutamate, and L-aspartate also induce a significant (albeit weaker) increase in [3H]inositol monophosphate formation, whereas N-methyl-D-aspartate, kainate, quinolinate, and N-acetylaspartylglutamate are inactive. The increase in [3H]inositol monophosphate formation elicited by the above-mentioned excitatory amino acids is potently and selectively antagonized by DL-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyric acid, a dicarboxylic amino acid receptor antagonist. These results suggest that, in the hippocampus, a class of dicarboxylic amino acid recognition sites is coupled with phospholipase C, the enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of membrane inositol phospholipids. 相似文献

The hippocampal vasopressin receptors have been characterised by measuring the stimulated accumulation of inositol monophosphate in the presence of 10 mM LiCl after hippocampal slices were prelabelled with [3H]inositol. Arginine-vasopressin caused a dose-dependent increase in inositol monophosphate accumulation (ED50 = 7.1 nM). The response was unchanged in the absence of Ca2+ and significantly reduced in the presence of a V1-receptor antagonist. Equimolar oxytocin was ineffective as a stimulus. This suggests that the hippocampal receptors are of the V1 type. 相似文献

Inositol Phospholipid Hydrolysis in Rat Cerebral Cortical Slices: II. Calcium Requirement 总被引:30,自引:17,他引:13
The calcium requirement for agonist-dependent breakdown of phosphatidylinositol and polyphosphoinositides has been examined in rat cerebral cortex. The omission of added Ca2+ from the incubation medium abolished [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation from prelabelled phospholipid induced by histamine, reduced that due to noradrenaline and 5-hydroxytryptamine, but did not affect carbachol-stimulated breakdown. EC50 values for agonists were unaltered in the absence of Ca2+. Removal of Ca2+ by preincubation with EGTA (0.5 mM) abolished all responses, but complete restoration was achieved by replacement of Ca2+. The EC50 for Ca2+ for histamine-stimulated [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation was 80 microM. Noradrenaline-stimulated breakdown was antagonised by manganese (IC50 1.7 mM), but not by the calcium channel blockers nitrendipine or nimodipine (30 microM). The calcium ionophore A23187 stimulated phosphatidylinositol/polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis with an EC50 of 2 microM, and this response was blocked by EGTA. Omission of Ca2+ or preincubation with EGTA or Mn2+ (EC50 = 230 microM) greatly enhanced the incorporation of [3H]inositol into phospholipids. The IC50 for Ca2+ in inhibiting incorporation was 25 microM. The results show that different receptors mediating phosphatidylinositol/polyphosphoinositide breakdown in rat cortex have quantitatively different Ca2+ requirements, and it is suggested that rigid opinions regarding phosphatidylinositol/polyphosphoinositide breakdown as either cause or effect of calcium mobilisation in rat cortex are inappropriate. 相似文献

Cyclic GMP Formation and Inositol Phosphate Accumulation Do Not Share Common Origins in Rat Brain Slices 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0
David A. Kendall 《Journal of neurochemistry》1986,47(5):1483-1489
Cyclic GMP formation and inositol phospholipid hydrolysis were studied in rat brain slices to determine if the two processes have common origins. Muscarinic cholinergic stimulation enhanced [3H]inositol phosphate ([ 3H]IP) accumulation from slices prelabelled with [3H]inositol but did not affect cyclic GMP formation in the cortex, striatum, or cerebellum. An elevated level of extracellular K+ stimulated accumulation of both cyclic GMP and [3H]IP in cortex slices. The former, but not the latter, was reduced by lipoxygenase and phospholipase A2 inhibition. Calcium channel activation enhanced and blockade reduced K+-stimulated [3H]IP formation without affecting the cyclic GMP level, and there were differences in the Ca2+ requirements for the two responses. Thus, there is no support for the concept that guanylate cyclase activation inevitably accompanies inositol phospholipid breakdown, and the evidence presented demonstrates that K+ stimulation promotes cyclic GMP and [3H]IP accumulation by different transducing pathways. 相似文献

Effects of Single and Repeated Electroconvulsive Shock Administration on Inositol Phosphate Accumulation in Rat Brain Slices 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Accumulation of inositol-1-phosphate after labeling with [3H]inositol and stimulation with noradrenaline, carbachol, and serotonin was measured in rat cortical, caudate nucleus, and hippocampal slices. The response to noradrenaline was significantly increased in cortical slices from animals that had received either a single electroconvulsive shock (ECS) or a series of 10 daily ECS but was unchanged in caudate nucleus or hippocampal slices. The response to carbachol, a muscarinic cholinergic agonist, was unchanged in cortical or caudate nucleus slices but was significantly reduced in hippocampal slices from animals that had received chronic ECS. The response to serotonin in cortical slices was not affected by the treatment. The results are correlated with changes in receptor number, which have been demonstrated to occur after administration of ECS. 相似文献

Neurotransmitter and Depolarization-Stimulated Accumulation of Inositol 1,3,4,5-Tetrakisphosphate Mass in Rat Cerebral Cortex Slices 总被引:6,自引:4,他引:2
[32P]Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate ([32P]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4) binds to a rat cerebellar membrane site with high affinity (KD = 2.8 +/- 0.6 nM) and low capacity (Bmax = 176 +/- 34 fmol/mg of protein). Evidence for a low-affinity site (KD = 164 +/- 48 nM) was also apparent. The high-affinity site displayed marked specificity for the Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 isomer, compared with several other inositol polyphosphates, and has been used as the basis of a radioreceptor assay for Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 in extracts of rat cerebral cortex slices. The resting Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 concentration (1.89 +/- 0.11 pmol/mg of protein) in the slices was rapidly and dramatically increased by carbachol and quisqualate. K+ depolarization of cerebral cortex slices also stimulated Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 accumulation, with at least 50% of the response being sensitive to atropine, a result indicating that muscarinic receptor stimulation by released acetylcholine contributes significantly to the K+ effect. 相似文献

Abstract: The ability of lithium to interfere with the metabolism of inositol phosphates in brain may underlie its therapeutic action in manic-depressive illness. In these experiments, lithium, at therapeutic concentrations, enhanced the accumulation of [3 H]inpsitol monophosphate but suppressed the accumulation of the putative second messengers [3 H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate ([3 H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 ) and f3 H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate following stimulation of cerebral cortex slices with carbachol. Mass measurements of Ins(1,4,5)P3 showed similar inhibitory effects, which could be prevented by preincubation with myo -inositol. These data may reveal the mechanism by which lithium can reduce polyphosphoinositide-midiated neurotransmission in brain. 相似文献

The distribution of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) 3-kinase mRNA in the rat brain is reported using oligonucleotides based on a cDNA clone sequence that encodes rat brain InsP3 3-kinase and the in situ hybridization technique. Moderate levels were found in CA2-4 pyramidal neurons, in the cortex, and in the striatum. The cerebellar granule cells, thalamus, hypothalamus, brainstem, spinal cord, and white matter tracts were almost negative. The levels of InsP3 3-kinase mRNA were highest in the hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons, granule cells of the dentate gyrus, and cerebellar Purkinje cells. These results contrast with the lower concentration of the InsP3 receptor already reported in the hippocampus versus the Purkinje cells and suggest a special role for inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate in Ammon's horn. 相似文献

Arachidonic Acid Increases Inositol Phospholipid Metabolism and Glutamate Release in Synaptosomes Prepared from Hippocampal Tissue 总被引:10,自引:8,他引:2
We have been interested in the possibility that arachidonic acid or one of its 12-lipoxygenase metabolites may function as a retrograde messenger in long-term potentiation (LTP) in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. One criterion required of a retrograde messenger is that it stimulates presynaptic changes. Here, two possible presynaptic actions of arachidonic acid and its 12-lipoxygenase metabolites, 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (HETE) and 12-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid (HPETE), are examined. We report that arachidonic acid, HETE, and HPETE significantly increase both K(+)-stimulated release of [3H]glutamate and [3H]inositol labelling of inositol phosphates in synaptosomes, whereas other biologically important fatty acids (oleic, palmitic, and stearic) failed to induce a similar response. The findings of these experiments are consistent with the hypothesis that arachidonic acid, HETE, or HPETE may play the role of a retrograde messenger in LTP. 相似文献

Glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain. Activation of glutamatergic receptors induces neuronal depolarization, and if this activation is excessive, it can lead to cellular damage. Evidence for the participation of glutamatergic receptor systems in the production of oxygen free radicals in neuronal cells is accumulating. In the present study, we have kept hippocampal slices under depolarization conditions induced by including 50 mM K+ in artificial cerebrospinal fluid (dACSF) and followed superoxide radical formation. Superoxide radical formation was increased in dACSF-incubated hippocampal slices. We have also attempted to determine the relative contribution of agonist- and voltage-sensitive channels to superoxide radical formation by using their selective blockers. Superoxide radical formation was suppressed by MK 801, memantine, APV, CNQX, and TTX application to dACSF-incubated hippocampal slices. Similar studies on different experimental systems may help to unravel the underlying critical events and active mechanisms that may lead to superoxide radical generation and subsequent neuronal cell death. 相似文献

Inositol Phospholipid Hydrolysis in Rat Cerebral Cortical Slices: I. Receptor Characterisation 总被引:35,自引:17,他引:18
Characterisation of receptor-mediated breakdown of inositol phospholipids in rat cortical slices has been performed using a direct assay which involves prelabelling with [3H]inositol. When slices were preincubated with [3H]inositol, lithium was found to greatly amplify the capacity of receptor agonists such as carbachol, noradrenaline, and 5-hydroxytryptamine to increase the amount of radioactivity appearing in the inositol phosphates. Using a large variety of agonists and antagonists it could be shown that cholinergic muscarinic, alpha 1-adrenoceptor, and histamine H1 receptors appear to be linked to inositol phospholipid breakdown in cortex. The large responses produced by receptor agonists allowed a clear discrimination between full and partial agonists as well as quantitative analysis of competitive antagonists for each receptor. Whereas carbachol and acetylcholine (in the presence of a cholinesterase inhibitor) were full agonists, oxotremorine and arecoline were only partial agonists. Very low concentrations of atropine shifted the carbachol dose-response curve to the right and allowed inhibition constants for the antagonist to be easily calculated. The nicotinic antagonist, mecamylamine, was ineffective. Noradrenaline adrenaline were full agonists at alpha 1-adrenoceptors, but phenylephrine and probably methoxamine were partial agonists. Prazosin, but not yohimbine, potently and competitively antagonised the noradrenaline inositol phospholipid response. Mepyramine but not cimetidine competitively antagonised the histamine response. These data provide strong confirmation for the potentiating effect of lithium on neurotransmitter inositol phospholipid breakdown and emphasise the ease with which functional responses at a number of cortical receptors can be characterised. 相似文献

Choline Uptake and Metabolism in Affinity-Purified Cholinergic Nerve Terminals from Rat Brain 总被引:5,自引:3,他引:2
Peter J. Richardson 《Journal of neurochemistry》1986,46(4):1251-1255
Cholinergic nerve terminals were affinity purified from rat caudate nucleus. These terminals possessed both high- (KT = 2.7 microM) and low- (KT = 58 microM) affinity uptake mechanisms for exogenous [3H]choline. The proportion of [3H]choline acetylated was reduced from 75 to 30% under conditions of anoxia and hypoglycaemia, whereas the phosphorylation of choline increased from 4 to 52%. Choline phosphorylation was also increased when the terminals were preloaded with choline. The affinity-purified terminals were shown to release acetylcholine in a Ca2+-dependent manner on depolarization. The relationship between choline acetylation and phosphorylation in the cholinergic nerve terminal is discussed. 相似文献

Subacute and Chronic In Vivo Lithium Treatment Inhibits Agonist- and Sodium Fluoride-Stimulated Inositol Phosphate Production in Rat Cortex 总被引:11,自引:9,他引:2

We have investigated the effects of in vivo lithium treatment on cerebral inositol phospholipid metabolism. Twice-daily treatment of rats with LiCl (3 mEq/kg) for 3 or 16 days resulted in a 25-40% reduction in agonist-stimulated inositol phosphate production, compared with NaCl-treated controls, in cortical slices prelabelled with [3H]inositol. A small effect was also seen with 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) 24 h after a single dose of LiCl (10 mEq/kg). Dose-response curves to carbachol and 5-HT showed that lithium treatment reduced the maximal agonist response without altering the EC50 value. This inhibition was not affected by the concentration of LiCl in the assay buffer. Stimulation of inositol phosphate formation by 10 mM NaF in membranes prepared from cortex of 3-day lithium-treated rats was also inhibited, by 35% compared with NaCl-treated controls. Lithium treatment did not alter the kinetic profile of inositol polyphosphate formation in cortical slices stimulated with carbachol. Muscarinic cholinergic and 5-HT2 bindings were unaltered by lithium, as was cortical phospholipase C activity and isoproterenol-stimulated cyclic AMP formation. [3H]Inositol labelling of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate was significantly enhanced by 3-day lithium treatment. The results, therefore, indicate that subacute or chronic in vivo lithium treatment reduces agonist-stimulated inositol phospholipid metabolism in cerebral cortex; this persistent inhibition appears to be at the level of G-protein-phospholipase C coupling. 相似文献
