Electrically evoked release of serotonin (5-HT) and its modulation via 5-HT autoreceptors and alpha(2)-heteroreceptors was studied in primary cell cultures prepared from the embryonic (ED 15) rat mesencephalic brain region comprising the raphe nuclei. Cultures were grown for up to 3 weeks on circular glass coverslips. They developed a dense network of non-neuronal and neuronal cells, some of which were positive for tryptophan hydroxylase. To measure 5-HT release, the cultures were pre-incubated with [(3)H]5-HT (in the presence of the selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor oxaprotiline [1 micromol/L]), superfused with modified Krebs-Henseleit medium containing 6-nitroqipazine [1 micromol/L] and electrically stimulated using two conditions. Condition A: 360 pulses, 3 Hz, 0.5 ms, 90 mA, or condition B: 4 pulses 100 Hz, 0.5 ms, 90 mA (a condition which diminishes interactions with endogenously released transmitters during ongoing stimulation). After only 1 week in culture, the electrically evoked overflow of [(3)H] was Ca(2+) dependent and tetrodotoxin sensitive, suggesting an action-potential-induced exocytotic release of 5-HT. Using stimulation condition A in cultures grown for 2 weeks, both basal and evoked 5-HT release were strongly enhanced by methiotepine (1 micromol/L) but unaffected by the 5-HT(1B) autoreceptor agonist CP-93, 129 (1 micromol/L) and the alpha(2)-adrenoceptor agonist UK-14, 304 (1 micromol/L). Conversely, using stimulation condition B, not only CP-93, 129 (IC(50) 8.1 +/- 1.4 nmol/L) and UK-14, 304 (IC(50) 14.9 +/- 1.6 nmol/L) had inhibitory effects on cells grown for 2 weeks, but also the 5-HT(1A) agonist 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin. In conclusion, we describe for the first time electrically evoked release of 5-HT from primary cultures of fetal raphe cells and its modulation via 5-HT(1B) and 5-HT(1A) auto- and alpha(2)-heteroreceptors. Such cultured raphe cells may represent a suitable model to study expression and development of presynaptic receptors on serotonergic neurons in-vitro. 相似文献

Presynaptic receptors modulating the release of acetylcholine (ACh) were studied in fetal septal neurons cultured in a growth medium to which various drugs were added from day 3 in vitro (DIV 3) to DIV 14. The influence of these drugs on the function of the presynaptic muscarinic (M-) autoreceptor was determined at DIV 14 by measuring the inhibitory effect of the M-agonist oxotremorine on the electrically-evoked release of [(3)H]ACh from cultures pre-incubated with [(3)H]choline. The presence of the M-agonists oxotremorine (100 micromol/L) or carbachol (100 micromol/L) from DIV 3 to DIV 14, or from DIV 13 to DIV 14, abolished M-autoreceptor function at DIV 14, whereas the presence of the M-antagonist atropine (10 micromol/L from DIV 3 to DIV 14) during growth left M-autoreceptor function unaltered. Inhibition of ACh esterase by donepezil (1 micromol/L from DIV 3 to DIV 14) weakly decreased M-autoreceptor function at DIV 14; inhibition of neuronal firing by 0.1 tetrodotoxin (0.1 micromol/L from DIV 3 to DIV 14) did not tend to affect M-autoreceptor function at DIV 14. Co-cultivation of fetal septal and raphe neurons for 2 weeks yielded cell cultures containing both vesicular ACh transporter- and tryptophan hydroxylase-immunopositive cells. From these cultures, the release of both [(3)H]ACh and [(3)H]5-HT could be induced by electrical field stimulation. In co-cultured neurons versus septal-only ones the inhibitory effect of oxotremorine on the evoked release of [(3)H]ACh appeared almost normal, whereas that of the selective 5-HT(1B) agonist 3-(1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyrid-4-yl)pyrrollo[3,2-b]pyrid-5-one (CP-93,129) was completely abolished. The effects of CP-93,129 were also absent on DIV 14 in septal mono-cultures grown in the presence of CP-93,129 (10 micromol/L) from DIV 3 to DIV 14. It is therefore concluded that the regulation of presynaptic receptor function strongly depends on the concentrations of endogenous transmitters in the neuronal environment. 相似文献

Background
This paper introduces the notion of optimizing different norms in the dual problem of support vector machines with multiple kernels. The selection of norms yields different extensions of multiple kernel learning (MKL) such as L ∞, L 1, and L 2 MKL. In particular, L 2 MKL is a novel method that leads to non-sparse optimal kernel coefficients, which is different from the sparse kernel coefficients optimized by the existing L ∞ MKL method. In real biomedical applications, L 2 MKL may have more advantages over sparse integration method for thoroughly combining complementary information in heterogeneous data sources. 相似文献6.

Glucocorticoids have been shown to influence trophic processes in the nervous system. In particular, they seem to be important for the development of cholinergic neurons in various brain regions. Here, we applied a genetic approach to investigate the role of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) on the maturation and maintenance of cholinergic medial septal neurons between P15 and one year of age by using a mouse model carrying a CNS-specific conditional inactivation of the GR gene (GRNesCre). The number of choline acetyltransferase and p75NTR immuno-positive neurons in the medial septum (MS) was analyzed by stereology in controls versus mutants. In addition, cholinergic fiber density, acetylcholine release and cholinergic key enzyme activity of these neurons were determined in the hippocampus. We found that in GRNesCre animals the number of medial septal cholinergic neurons was significantly reduced during development. In addition, cholinergic cell number further decreased with aging in these mutants. The functional GR gene is therefore required for the proper maturation and maintenance of medial septal cholinergic neurons. However, the loss of cholinergic neurons in the medial septum is not accompanied by a loss of functional cholinergic parameters of these neurons in their target region, the hippocampus. This pinpoints to plasticity of the septo-hippocampal system, that seems to compensate for the septal cell loss by sprouting of the remaining neurons. 相似文献

The Indian black berry (Syzygium cumini Skeels) has a great nutraceutical and medicinal properties. As in other fruit crops, the
fruit characteristics are important attributes for differentiation were also determined for different accessions of S. cumini. The fruit
weight, length, breadth, length: breadth ratio, pulp weight, pulp content, seed weight and pulp: seed ratio significantly varied in
different accessions. Molecular characterization was carried out using PCR based RAPD technique. Out of 80 RAPD primers, only
18 primers produced stable polymorphisms that were used to examine the phylogenetic relationship. A sum of 207 loci were
generated out of which 201 loci found polymorphic. The average genetic dissimilarity was 97 per cent among jamun accessions.
The phylogenetic relationship was also determined by principal coordinates analysis (PCoA) that explained 46.95 per cent
cumulative variance. The two-dimensional PCoA analysis showed grouping of the different accessions that were plotted into four
sub-plots, representing clustering of accessions. The UPGMA (r = 0.967) and NJ (r = 0.987) dendrogram constructed based on the
dissimilarity matrix revealed a good degree of fit with the cophenetic correlation value. The dendrogram grouped the accessions
into three main clusters according to their eco-geographical regions which given useful insight into their phylogenetic
relationships. 相似文献

Aquaporin 2 (AQP2) is a small, integral tetrameric plasma membrane protein that is expressed in mammalian kidneys. The specific constitution of this protein and its selective permeability to water means that AQP2 plays an important role in hypertonic urine production. Immunolocalization of AQP2 has been studied in humans, monkeys, sheep, dogs, rabbits, rats, mice and adult cattle. We analyzed the expression of AQP2 in kidneys of 7-month-old Polish-Friesian var. black and white male calves. AQP2 was localized in the principal cells of collecting ducts in medullary rays penetrating the renal cortex and in the collecting ducts of renal medulla. AQP2 was expressed most strongly in the apical plasma membrane, but expression was observed also in the intracellular vesicles and basolateral plasma membrane. Our study provides new information concerning the immunolocalization of AQP2 in calf kidneys. 相似文献
