Abstract: | Effects of water-soluble substance in cigarette smoke on neurotransmitter release were investigated using nerve terminals (synaptosomes) prepared from rat cerebral cortex. 2,2′-Azobis (2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (ABAP), a peroxyl radical-generator, enhanced the depolarization-evoked release of glutamate and aspartate from synaptosomes with concomitant increase in thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBA-RS) levels in membrane lipids of synaptosomes. The trapped smoke-substance attenuated the lipid peroxidation-enhanced release of excitatory amino acids during the depolarization with reduction in TBA-RS, although it failed to affect the basal release of neurotransmitters. These data suggest that cigarette smoke may possess antioxidant properties to reduce oxidation-induced enhancement of transmitter release from nerve terminals. |
