    Notes: Abstract: The amount of control exerted by respiratory chain complexes in isolated nonsynaptic mitochondria prepared from rat brain on the rate of oxygen consumption was assessed using inhibitor titrations. Rotenone, myxothiazol, and KCN were used to titrate the activities of NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (EC 1.6.5.3; complex I), ubiquinol:ferrocytochrome c oxidoreductase (EC 1.10.2.2; complex III), and cytochrome c oxidase (EC 1.9.3.1; complex IV), respectively. Complexes I, III, and IV shared some of the control of the rate of oxygen consumption in nonsynaptic mitochondria, having flux control coefficients of 0.14, 0.15, and 0.24, respectively. Threshold effects in the control of oxidative phosphorylation were demonstrated for complexes I, III, and IV. It was found that complex I activity could be decreased by ∼72% before major changes in mitochondrial respiration and ATP synthesis took place. Similarly, complex III and IV activities could be decreased by ∼70 and 60%, respectively, before major changes in mitochondrial respiration and ATP synthesis occurred. These results indicate that previously observed decreases in respiratory chain complex activities in some neurological disorders need to be reassessed as these decreases might not affect the overall capability of nonsynaptic mitochondria to maintain energy homeostasis unless a certain threshold of decreased complex activity has been reached. Possible implications for synaptic mitochondria and neurodegenerative disorders are also discussed.

    Notes: Abstract: In this study we have examined (1) the integrated function of the mitochondrial respiratory chain by polarographic measurements and (2) the activities of the respiratory chain complexes I, II–III, and IV as well as the ATP synthase (complex V) in free mitochondria and synaptosomes isolated from gerbil brain, after a 30-min period of graded cerebral ischaemia. These data have been correlated with cerebral blood flow (CBF) values as measured by the hydrogen clearance technique. Integrated functioning of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, using both NAD-linked and FAD-linked substrates, was initially affected at CBF values of ∼35 ml 100 g−1 min−1, and declined further as the CBF was reduced. The individual mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes, however, showed differences in sensitivity to graded cerebral ischaemia. Complex I activities decreased sharply at blood flows below ∼30 ml 100 g−1 min−1 (mitochondria and synaptosomes) and complex II–III activities decreased at blood flows below 20 ml 100 g−1 min−1 (mitochondria) and 35–30 ml 100 g−1 min−1 (synaptosomes). Activities declined further as CBF was reduced below these levels. Complex V activity was significantly affected only when the blood flow was reduced below 15–10 ml 100 g−1 min−1 (mitochondria and synaptosomes). In contrast, complex IV activity was unaffected by graded cerebral ischaemia, even at very low CBF levels.

    Notes: Abstract: Synaptosomes exposed to anoxic insult produce lactate at a slow rate (measured over 60 min). No measurable damaging effects were produced by prolonged depolarisation, anoxic insult, or exogenous lactate (2–32 mM) either on the synaptic plasma membrane (as judged by release of lactate dehydrogenase and soluble proteins), or on synaptosomal phospholipases (as judged by choline release from membrane phospholipids). Potassium-stimulated acetylcholine release was decreased by incubation in the presence of lactate (2–32 mM), as was potassium- and veratrine-stimulated calcium uptake and the calcium content of depolarised synaptosomes. The intrasynaptosomal pH was also reduced but there was no stimulation of oxygen radical production (as judged by H2O2 generation) by exogenous lactate. The role that lactic acidosis may play in giving rise to the altered calcium homeostasis and decreased acetylcholine release from synaptosomes exposed to anoxic insult is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract: The distribution of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) into cytoskeletal and soluble protein fractions during development of the rat brain has been studied by quantitative immunoblotting and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). These assays indicate that cytoskeletal GFAP accounts for nearly all the total GFAP in the adult rat brain, and that the developmental increase in the GFAP content of the rat brain is due to accumulation of GFAP into the cytoskeleton. A small and constant amount of the total GFAP was detected in the soluble protein fraction. This GFAP had an apparent molecular mass (Mr) similar to that of the highest Mr form of GFAP detected in the cytoskeletal fraction. In contrast to the assays for cytoskeletal GFAP, no significant increase in the GFAP concentration of the soluble protein fraction could be measured during development. Sensitive, calibrated immunoblotting of cytoskeletal and soluble protein with [125I]protein A confirmed these findings, and showed that both cytoskeletal and soluble GFAP are first detected during the same period of foetal rat brain development. A finite and reproducible amount of lower Mr forms of GFAP were observed in the cytoskeletal fraction even when prepared in the presence of stringent proteolytic inhibitors. These presumed proteolytic degradation products of GFAP increased in abundance during development, parallel to the increase in cytoskeletal GFAP content of the rat brain. However, the abundant proteolytic degradation products of GFAP found in the cytoskeletal fraction were not detected in the soluble protein fraction at any age studied. These findings, and the failure to detect a significant increase in the amount of soluble GFAP during development, strongly suggest that the very small pool of soluble GFAP is unlikely to be derived from the much larger pool of cytoskeletal GFAP. The possible role of soluble GFAP as a precursor to glial filaments is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract: The effects of hypoxia, aglycaemia, and hypoxia-aglycaemia on intrasynaptosomal free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) have been investigated in rat brain synaptosomes prepared from animals aged 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 60 days. After 60 min of hypoxia there was no significant difference, when compared with controls, in basal [Ca2+]i or [Ca2+]i following depolarisation in all of the ages studied. Following 60 min of aglycaemia there was no significant difference from controls in [Ca2+]i of synaptosomes prepared from pups of ≤20 days, although a significant rise in [Ca2+]i was seen in preparations from animals 〉20 days old. Sixty minutes of hypoxia-aglycaemia led to a significant rise in [Ca2+]i only in preparations from animals 15–60 days old. With both aglycaemia and hypoxia-aglycaemia a progressive increase in the magnitude of the rise in [Ca2+]i was seen with development. These data suggest increases in [Ca2+]i in adult nerve terminals following prolonged aglycaemia and hypoxia-aglycaemia but no change following prolonged hypoxia. In contrast, no significant changes in [Ca2+]i values were apparent in neonatal nerve terminals under any of these conditions. In control synaptosomes with glucose and oxygen freely available, a decrease in resting and depolarised [Ca2+]i during development was seen, suggesting a change in calcium homeostasis within the nerve terminal as the brain develops. It is suggested that the mechanism underlying the relative resistance to ischaemic damage of neonatal brain as compared with adult brain may be related to the regulation of calcium at the nerve ending.

    Notes: Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine the extracellular concentrations of N-acetylaspartate (NAA) in the rat cerebral cortex, striatum, and hippocampus of halo-thane-anaesthetised rats by intracerebral microdialysis, and to examine the effects of high K+-induced local depolarisation, which provokes synchronous neurotransmitter release, cell swelling, and acid-base changes. Basal levels of NAA in the extracellular fluid (EOF) were determined by the zero net flux method. Tissue levels of NAA in the cortex, striatum, and hippocampus were 8.4, 5.7, and 7.2 mmol/kg, respectively. The corresponding extracellular concentrations of NAA were much lower (35.1, 83.7, and 23.0 tiM). High tissue/ECF concentration ratios may suggest little release or leakage of NAA under basal conditions, and potent reuptake mechanisms for NAA in the cellular membrane of CNS cells. There was no change in ECF NAA during K+-induced local depolarising stimuli produced in the striatum, but NAA levels consistently increased after the K+ stimuli, irrespective of whether or not Ca2+ was present in the perfusion medium. These data confirm that NAA is not a neurotransmitter and suggest strongly that NAA is not directly involved in the release and reuptake or metabolism of neuroactive compounds. The increase of NAA in the ECF immediately after K+ stimulation may reflect an involvement in brain osmoregulation and/or acid-base homeostasis.

    Notes: Abstract: The effect of reperfusion following 30 min of cerebral ischaemia on brain mitochondrial respiratory chain activity has been studied in the gerbil. The state 3 respiration rates with both FAD- and NAD-linked substrates were reduced after ischaemia. After 5 min of reperfusion, state 3 respiration with FAD-linked substrates was restored, but levels of NAD-linked substrates did not return to control values until 30 min of reperfusion. By 120 min of reperfusion state 3 respiration decreased relative to control values with all substrates studied. Measurement of the individual respiratory chain complexes showed that complex I, complex II–III, and complex V activities were reduced after ischaemia. By 5 min of reperfusion complex II–III activity was restored, but the activities of complexes I and V did not return to control values until 30 min of reperfusion. In contrast, complex IV activity was unaffected by ischaemia or 5 and 30 min of reperfusion but was significantly reduced after 120 min of reperfusion, possibly owing to free radical production and lipid peroxidation.
