Relationship between the release and uptake of noradrenaline by rat brain synaptosomes in the formation of defensive conditioned reflex.

چکیده
The defensive conditioned reflex with two-way avoidance was developed in rats in a shuttle-box. Immediately and 30 min after learning the animals were decapitated and synaptosomes were isolated from the whole brain and brain cortex. Using [14C] and [3H]-noradrenaline (NA), the processes of uptake, spontaneous and potassium depolarization-induced (60 mM KCl) release of NA by brain synaptosomes of trained and control animals were studied in vitro. Immediately after learning the inhibition of NA uptake was observed, but 30 min following learning the ability of synaptosomes to take up NA was recovered to the initial level. Thirty minutes after learning the potassium depolarization-induced release of NA previously taken up by synaptosomes increased as compared to the control. NA spontaneous release did not change under these conditions. With the increase of Ca2+ concentration in the incubation medium from 1.2 mM to 2.4 mM, the induced NA release from brain synaptosomes of trained and control animals regularly increased. Changes in NA release and uptake are specific for the development of conditioned reflex

EFFECTS OF CATECHOLAMINES ON DOPAMINE AND SEROTONIN SYNTHESIS IN RAT BRAIN STRIATAL SYNAPTOSOMES: THE ROLE OF PRESYNAPTIC RECEPTORS AND THE SYNAPTOSOMAL REUPTAKE MECHANISM.
The regulation of dopamine and serotonin synthesis in rat brain striatal synaptosomes has been studied using HPLC methods. Noradrenaline was shown to markedly inhibit both the synthesis of dopamine and serotonin. The response of the synaptosomes to the concentrations of noradrenaline appeared to be biphasic, a very effective inhibition occurring at low concentrations (1-5 µm) and a relativ...
متن کاملEffect of Paraoxon on GABA Uptake by Rat Cerebral Cortex Synaptosomes
Background: It has been suggested that organophosphates may inhibit gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) metabolism in synaptosomal preparations. In the present investigation, we have assessed the interaction between paraoxon and the GABA system at synaptic level. Methods: Synaptosomes were prepared from male Wistar rats (200-250 g). Cerebral cortex was dissected and homogenized, then centrifuged at ...
متن کاملNon-cholinergic effects of paraoxon on [3h]-GABA release from rat cerebellar giant synaptosomes
Diethyl p-nitrophenyl phosphate (paraoxon) is the active toxic metabolite of parathion. Some evidences indicate that OPs affect the GABA system via noncholinergic mechanisms. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of paraoxon on K+-evoked [3H]-GABA release from cerebellar synaptosomes. Adult male rats (200 ± 30 g; 3-4 months old) were sacrificed by decapitation and the cerebel...

متن کاملEffect of paraoxon on the synaptosomal GABA uptake in rat hippocampus and cerebral cortex
Introduction: Paraoxon (the neurotoxic metabolite of organophosphorus (OP) insecticide, parathion) exerts acute toxicity by inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), leading to the accumulation of acetylcholine in cholinergic synapses and hence overstimulation of the cholinergic system. Since, reports on changes in the level of γ- amino butyric acid (GABA) during OP-induced convulsion have bee...
