    Notes: Abstract: The GABAA receptor, as assessed by ligand binding and chloride flux measurement in vivo and in vitro, is down-regulated in response to chronic benzodiazepine exposure. The mRNA levels of the α1 and γ2 subunits of the receptor are also reduced. We have isolated the promoter of the gene encoding the α1 subunit of the GABAA receptor to elucidate the regulatory mechanism of its expression. A DNA segment 650 bp long has been Isolated that includes 151 bp of untranslated 5’end of the cDNA sequence and 500 bp of potential promoter-enhancer region. The transcriptional activity of this DNA segment linked to the firefly luciferase gene showed a strong orientation specificity. The promoter activity was localized to a 60-bp segment by deletion mapping. Mobility shift binding assay results suggest that this segment may interact with one or more factors in HeLa cell nuclear extracts to form a transcriptional complex. Primary cultures of embryonic chick cortical cells transfected with the promoter-luciferase construct were treated chronically with lorazepam. Transcriptional activity of this promoter construct was strongly repressed by chronic administration of lorazepam.

    Notes: Abstract: The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor of rat cerebellar granule cells in primary culture is inhibited by phospholipase C-coupled receptor activation. In the absence of ionotropic agonist, cells modulate their cytoplasmic free Ca2+, [Ca2+]c, in response to stimulation of M3 muscarinic receptors, metabotropic glutamate receptors, and endothelin receptors by the respective agonists carbachol, trans-l-amino-l,3-cyclopentanedicarboxylic acid, and endothelin-1. The response is consistent with the ability of phospholipase C-coupled receptors to release a pool of intracellular Ca2+ and induce a subsequent Ca2+ entry into the cell; both of these responses can be abolished by discharge of internal Ca2+ stores with low concentrations of ionomycin or thapsigargin. In the case of cells stimulated with NMDA, the [Ca2+]c response to the phospholipase C-coupled agonists is complex and agonist dependent; however, in the presence of ionomycin each agonist produces a partial inhibition of the NMDA component of the [Ca2+]c signal. This inhibition can be mimicked by the protein kinase C activator 4β-phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate. It is concluded that NMDA receptors on cerebellar granule cells are inhibited by phospholipase C-coupled muscarinic M3, glutamatergic, and endothelin receptors via activation of protein kinase C.

    Notes: To test the specificity of N-acetylaspartate (NAA) as a neuronal marker for proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy, purified and characterized cultured cells were analyzed for their NAA content using both 1H NMR and HPLC. Cell types studied included cerebellar granule neurons, type-1 astrocytes, meningeal cells, oligodendrocyte-type-2 astrocyte (O–2A) progenitor cells, and oligodendrocytes. A high concentration of NAA was found in extracts of cerebellar granule neurons (approximately 12 nmol/mg of protein), whereas NAA remained undetectable in purified type-1 astrocytes, meningeal cells, and mature oligodendrocytes. However, twice the neuronal level of NAA was found in O-2A progenitors grown in vitro. In addition significant levels of NAA were also detected in cultures of immature oligodendrocytes. Our data partly support previous suggestions that NAA may be a useful neuronal marker for 1H NMR spectroscopic examination of the adult brain. However, they also raise the further possibility that alterations of NAA associated with some specific brain disorders, particularly disorders seen in newborn and young children, may reflect abnormalities in the development of oligodendroglia or their precursors.

    Notes: Abstract: Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-mRNA, assayed by in situ hybridization combined with TH immunocytochemistry, showed a selective increase in the ventral tegmental area (A-10) but not in the substantia nigra (A-9) midbrain dopaminergic (DAergic) neurons 3 days after reserpine treatment. TH-mRNA in locus ceruleus noradrenergic (A-4) neurons was increased by reserpine, as confirmed by RNA blot hybridization. These findings show that TH-mRNA is differentially regulated in midbrain DAergic neurons in response to reserpine.

    Evidence for an Astrocyte-Derived Vasorelaxing Factor with Properties Similar to Nitric Oxide (1990)

    Notes: Abstract: To determine whether astrocytes release nonprostanoid vasodilators, cells on microcarrier beads were superfused with various agents in the presence of indomethacin, and the effluent was bioassayed and also analyzed for nitric oxide by a chemiluminescence technique. Bradykinin and A23187 induced release of a factor that relaxed arterial rings, an effect that was blocked by hemoglobin. The effluent contained either nitric oxide or a related compound that could be reduced to nitric oxide. Production of this factor was competitively inhibited by the arginine analogs NG-nitro-L-arginine and NG-methyl-L-arginine and could be restored with L-arginine. Quisqualate and norepinephrine were also effective in causing the release of nitric oxide from astroglial cells. Thus, astrocyte-derived relaxing factor has properties similar to those of an endothelium- and neuronderived relaxing factor.

    Characterization of the Release of Cholecystokinin-8 from Isolated Nerve Terminals and Comparison with Exocytosis of Classical Transmitters (1991)

    Notes: Abstract: In the present study, the release of the neuropeptide cholecystokinin-8 (CCK) from purified nerve terminals (synaptosomes) of the rat hippocampus was characterized with respect to the subcellular distribution, the release upon addition of various agents, the release kinetics, the Ca2+ and ATP dependence of release, and the relationship between CCK release and elevations of intraterminal free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca]i). These characteristics were compared with those for the release of classical transmitters in similar preparations. CCK-like immunoreactivity (CCK-LI) is enriched in the purified synaptosomal fraction of hippocampus homogenates and released in a strictly Ca2+-dependent manner upon chemical depolarization, addition of 4-aminopyridine, or stimulation with the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin. The presence of Ca2+ in the medium significantly stimulates the basal efflux of CCK-LI from synaptosomes. The release upon stimulation develops gradually in time with no significant release in the first 10 s and levels off after 3 min of depolarization. At this time, a large amount of CCK-LI is still present inside the synaptosomes. A correlation exists between the release of CCK-LI and the elevations of [Ca]i. The release of CCK-LI is decreased, but not blocked, upon ATP depletion. These characteristics markedly differ from those for classical transmitters, which show a fast component of Ca2+-dependent (exocytotic) release, an absolute dependence on cellular ATP, and no marked stimulation of basal efflux in the presence of Ca2+. Furthermore, the relationship between the volume average [Ca]i (measured with fura-2) and the extent of release is more or less linear for the release of CCK-LI, whereas this relationship is clearly nonlinear for the release of endogenous glutamate and γ-aminobutyric acid in similar preparations. We hypothesize that these differences between the neuropeptide CCK-8 and classical transmitters are caused by three differences: (a) vesicle type; (b) Ca2+ sensitivity of the release mechanism; and (c) release site.

    Glutamate Exocytosis and MARCKS Phosphorylation Are Enhanced by a Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Coupled to a Protein Kinase C Synergistically Activated by Diacylglycerol and Arachidonic Acid (1994)

    Notes: Abstract: 4-Aminopyridine evokes repetitive firing of synaptosomes and exocytosis of glutamate by inhibiting a dendrotoxin-sensitive K+ channel responsible for stabilizing the membrane potential. We have shown previously that activation of protein kinase C (PKC) by high concentrations of phorbol ester (4β-phorbol dibutyrate) can increase release by inhibiting a dendrotoxin-insensitive ion channel, whereas the metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) agonist (1S,3R)-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylate [(1S,3R)-ACPD] mimics the action of 4β-phorbol dibutyrate, but only in the presence of 2 µM arachidonic acid (AA). In this article, we investigate the role of AA. AA plus (1S,3R)-ACPD is without effect on KCl-induced glutamate exocytosis, indicating that the regulatory pathway acts upstream of the release-coupled Ca2+ channel or Ca2+-secretion coupling. Diacylglycerol concentrations are greatly enhanced by (1S,3R)-ACPD alone, independently of AA, indicating that AA acts downstream of phospholipase C. Myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS) is the major presynaptic substrate for PKC. mGluR activation by (1S,3R)-ACPD enhances phosphorylation of MARCKS, but only in the presence of AA. These results strongly suggest that AA acts on presynaptic PKC synergistically with diacylglycerol generated by the phospholipase-coupled mGluR, consistent with the known behaviour of certain purified PKC isoforms. The magnitude of the effects observed in a population of rat cerebrocortical synaptosomes suggests that this is a major mechanism regulating the release of the brain's dominant excitatory neurotransmitter and supports the concept that AA, or a related compound with a similar locus of action, may in certain circumstances play a role in synaptic plasticity.

    Role of Extracellular Adenosine in Ethanol-Induced Desensitization of Cyclic AMP Production (1993)

    Notes: Abstract: The decrease in receptor-stimulated cyclic AMP production after chronic ethanol exposure was suggested previously to be secondary to an ethanol-induced increase in extracellular adenosine. The present study was undertaken to ascertain whether a similar mechanism was responsible for the ethanol-induced desensitization of cyclic AMP production in PC12 pheochromocytoma cells. The acute addition of ethanol in vitro significantly increased both basal cyclic AMP content and extracellular levels of adenosine. A 4-day exposure to ethanol decreased basal as well as 2-chloroadenosine- and forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP contents. No change in cyclic AMP content was observed after a 2-day exposure of PC12 cells to ethanol. Inclusion of adenosine deaminase during the chronic ethanol treatment significantly decreased extracellular levels of adenosine, yet the percentage decrease in 2-chloroadenosine- and forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP levels after chronic ethanol exposure was not changed by the inclusion of the adenosine deaminase. Similar results were obtained when the chronic treatment was carried out with serum-free defined media. The ethanol-induced desensitization could not be mimicked by chronic exposure of PC12 cells to adenosine analogues. A 24-h exposure of PC12 cells to 2-chloroadenosine resulted in a decrease in the subsequent ability of this adenosine analogue to stimulate cyclic AMP content, but basal and forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP levels were increased. Similar results were obtained after a 4-day exposure of PC12 cells to 2-chloroadenosine or 5′-N-ethylcarboxamido-adenosine. The present results indicate that the ethanol-induced decrease in receptor-stimulated cyclic AMP content in PC12 cells is not due to an increase in extracellular adenosine.

    An Ion Channel Locus for the Protein Kinase C Potentiation of Transmitter Glutamate Release from Guinea Pig Cerebrocortical Synaptosomes (1991)

    Notes: The mechanism by which protein kinase C (PKC) activates transmitter release from guinea pig cerebrocortical synaptosomes was investigated by employing parallel fluorescent assays of glutamate release, cytoplasmic free Ca2+, and plasma membrane potential. 4β-Phorbol dibutyrate (4β- PDBu) enhances the Ca2+-dependent, 4-aminopyridine (4AP)-evoked release of glutamate from synaptosomes, the 4AP-evoked elevation of cytoplasmic free Ca2+, and the 4AP- evoked depolarization of the plasma membrane. 4β-PDBu itself causes a slow depolarization, which may underlie the small effect of 4β-PDBu on spontaneous, KCI-evoked, and Ca2+-independent/4AP-evoked glutamate release. Because 4AP (but not KCI) generates spontaneous, tetrodotoxin-sensitive action potentials in synaptosomes, a major locus of presynaptic PKC action is to enhance these action potentials, perhaps by inhibiting delayed rectifier K+ channels.
