    Notes: The autoradiographic localization of radiolabelled taurine taken up in the rat substantia nigra in vivo together with conditions of release of the [3H]taurine taken up into brain slices were studied to determine whether they are consistent with the hypothesis that taurine may act as a neurotransmitter in the striatonigral pathway.At the light microscopic level the main cellular elements that became radiolabelled following the injection of [3H]taurine into the substantia nigra could be identified as glial cells. Electron microscope autoradiography confirmed that a subpopulation of glial cells including astrocytes, pericytes, and oligodendrocytes were radiolabelled and that neuronal perikarya were not radiolabelled. In addition, axonal elements including both terminal and preterminal boutons were found to have silver grains overlying them and were thus considered to be radiolabelled. This was supported by a quantitative analysis of the distribution of the silver grains; whereas glial elements had a significantly higher number of grains associated with them than with any other structure, axonal elements had a significantly greater number of grains than dendritic structures.Release of the preloaded [3H]taurine from superfused slices of substantia nigra occurred in response to veratridine, was calcium-dependent and was sensitive to inhibition by high magnesium concentrations or tetrodotoxin. Following the destruction of neurons in the striatum by ibotenic acid injections, although the weight of the ipsilateral substantia nigra was reduced, the uptake of [3H]taurine was not altered. In contrast to this, the veratridine-stimulated release was markedly attenuated, implying that the destruction of striatal neurons causes the loss of sites in the substantia nigra from which exogenous taurine is released.These results add further support to previous suggestions that taurine might act as a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator in the striatonigral pathway.

    Notes: A new mutant rat strain with movement disorders has arisen spontaneously in a closed colony of Albino–Swiss rats at the Department of Anatomy, Glasgow University. The animals possess a progressive locomotor disorder which is first apparent at around post-natal day 10. We here report that tyrosine hydroxylase immunocytochemistry demonstrates that these mutants have profound depletions in dopaminergic systems in the substantia nigra and corresponding areas of neostriatum.

    Notes: The reactions of 20 inbred lines of Senecio vulgaris (groundsel) to inoculation with up to 10 isolates of Erysiphe fischeri (powdery mildew) were investigated in a number of repeat experiments. There was considerable variation among isolate/plant line reaction phenotypes with examples of both isolate-specific complete resistance and isolate-specific partial resistance. Some plant lines possessed high levels of partial resistance to all isolates tested. Incubation temperature and plant age influenced the infection types of some isolate/plant line combinations. In this pathosystem, complete and partial resistance, together with age-dependent and temperature-dependent resistance, appear to have evolved to facilitate a defence strategy based on a complex mosaic of interacting factors.

    Notes: Variation for virulence was investigated in two populations of Erysiphe fischeri, the cause of powdery mildew of the common annual weed Senecio vulgaris (groundsel). Infection types were recorded on detached leaf segments from 50 inbred lines of S. vulgaris following inoculation with 24 single-conidial-chain isolates of E. fischeri (12 each from two UK sites; one, at Glasgow, located about 480 km north of the other, at Wellesbourne). Mean infection types for each isolate/line combination were categorized by applying several upper limits below which combinations were considered to be incompatible. Regardless of the limit applied, numerous specific virulence and resistance phenotypes could be discriminated. Virulence phenotypes were complex and all isolates were capable of colonizing and reproducing on the majority of groundsel lines. However, all isolates were completely avirulent (no reproduction) on at least one groundsel line, so no isolate was universally virulent. Plants of several groundsel lines exhibiting different resistance phenotypes were exposed to natural infection at Wellesbourne to act as mildew traps, to examine the virulence characteristics of the pathogen population. Common components of the fungus population colonized groundsel lines exhibiting resistance to only a few or none of the single-conidial-chain isolates. Rarer components of the pathogen population colonized groundsel lines with resistance to the majority or all of the isolates previously tested. These latter components of the fungus population also detected resistance in groundsel lines previously recorded as susceptible to all isolates.

    Notes: Summary Kynuramines are endogenously occurring diamines derived from tryptophan. In the present study, we have compared the pharmacological actions of 5-hydroxykynuramine (5-OH-K) with kynuramine and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) on vascular resistance changes and responsiveness to adrenergic stimuli in the isolated perfused rat kidney. 5-OH-K was found to mimic the actions of 5-HT in that it produced vasoconstriction, potentiation of alpha1-adrenoceptor-mediated responses to norepinephrine (NE) and periarterial nerve stimulation and displaced specific [3H]spiroperidol binding from rat cortical membranes. With regard to all parameters measured, 5-OH-K was about 15-times less active than 5-HT. Vascular responses to 5-OH-K and 5-HT were inhibited noncompetitively by ketanserin and cyproheptadine. Unlike 5-OH-K, kynuramine, failed to evoke vasoconstriction and Inhibited vascular responses to NE via alpha1-adrenoceptors. Thus, kynuramine lacks serotonin receptor agonist activity but possesses alphaI-adrenoceptor blocking properties. In contrast, 5-OH-K potentiates NE and acts as a serotonin agonist. The present results raise the possibility that kynuramine and 5-OH-K might act as endogenous modulators of serotonergic and adrenergic mechanisms in the renal vascular bed.

    Notes: Summary The present study was designed to characterize an “atypical” 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor mediating relaxation of the rat oesophageal tunica muscularis mucosae. All experiments were performed under equilibrium conditions, using pargyline to inhibit the oxidative deamination of indoleamines, and cocaine and corticosterone to inhibit neuronal and extraneuronal uptake. Under these conditions 5-HT (0.3–1000 nmol/l) produced a concentration-dependent relaxation of carbachol-induced tension. The concentration-effect curve to 5-HT was unaffected by potent antagonists for 5-HT1, 5-HT2, 5-HT3 and so called 5-HT1P receptors (metergoline, methysergide, ketanserin, ondansetron, N-acetyl-5-hydroxytryptophyl-5-hydroxytryptophan amide), but was antagonized competitively by ICS 205–930 (pA2 = 6.7). Responses to 5-HT were mimicked by other indoleamines and substituted benzamides with the following order of potency: 5-HT ≥ 5-methoxytryptamine 〉 cisapride = α-methyl-5-HT = (S)-zacopride = renzapride 〉 (RS)-zacopride 〉 5-carboxamido-tryptamine = metoclopramide = (R)-zacopride 〉 tryptamine 〉 2-methyl-5-HT. ICS 205–930 afforded similar pA2 values (6.0–6.7) against each agonist, indicating a common site of action. Concentration-effect curves to 5-HT were not affected by tetrodotoxin or indomethacin, sugesting that 5-HT-induced relaxation of the tunica muscularis mucosae was mediated via a postjunctional receptor, independent of endogenous prostanoids. The pharmacological profile of the 5-HT receptor in the rat oesophageal tunica muscularis mucosae correlates well with the 5-HT4 receptor characterized recently in both the CNS and gastro-intestinal tract.

    Notes: Summary Agonist-induced desensitization has been utilized to discriminate and independently “isolate” the neuronal excitatory receptors to 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in the guinea pig ileum (5-HT3 and putative 5-HT4 receptors). Electrically stimulated longitudinal muscle myenteric plexus preparations, and non-stimulated segments of whole ileum were used. Exposure to 5-methoxytryptamine (10 μmol/l) inhibited completely responses to 5-HT at the putative 5-HT4 receptor without affecting 5-HT3-mediated responses. Conversely, exposure to 2-methyl-5-HT (10 μmol/l) inhibited completely responses to 5-HT at the 5-HT3 receptor without affecting putative 5-HT4-mediated responses. The inhibition with 5-methoxytryptamine and 2-methyl-5-HT, either alone or in combination, appeared selective as responses to KCI, DMPP, carbachol, histamine, and substance P were unaffected or only very slightly modified. Furthermore, the pA2 values for ICS 205–930 at the putative 5-HT4 (pA2 = 6.2 to 6.5) and 5-HT3 (pA2 = 7.6 to 8.1) receptors (estimated in the presence of 2-methyl-5HT and 5-methoxytryptamine, respectively) were consistent with those estimated in the absence of desensitization. 5-Methoxytryptamine, but not 2-methyl-5-HT, suppressed completely but reversibly the concentration-effect curve to renzapride, suggesting that responses to this agent are mediated exclusively via agonism at the putative 5-HT4 receptor. It is concluded that 5-methoxytryptamine and 2-methyl-5-HT can be utilized as selective probes to discriminate the putative 5-HT4 receptor from the 5-HT3 receptor in guinea pig ileum. This finding is of importance as no selective antagonist exists for the putative 5-HT4 receptor. Furthermore, the presently described method of agonist-induced desensitization and 5-HT receptor discrimination may be useful for the identification and characterization of the putative 5-HT4 receptor in other tissues and species.
