Inhibitory effect of NMDA on dopaminergic transmission in a slice preparation of rat globus pallidus.

چکیده
The effect of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) on KCl-evoked endogenous dopamine (DA) release from slices of rat globus pallidus (GP) was examined. NMDA inhibited the KCl-evoked DA release in a dose-dependent manner. This inhibition was blocked by CPP, an NMDA antagonist. Tetrodotoxin partially antagonized the effect of NMDA. The NMDA-induced inhibition was also partially antagonized by bicuculline methiodide and was mimicked by muscimol. These results strongly suggest that 1) an activation of NMDA receptors exerts an inhibitory effect on dopaminergic transmission in GP and 2) GABAergic transmission is involved in the effect of NMDA.

It has been reported that ketamine as an uncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist has also non-NMDA receptor antagonist properties. We recently found that ketamine (20 ?M) affected differently induction of NMDA receptor-mediated long-term potentiation (LTP) when administered 30 min prior to tetanic Primed-Bursts (PBs) stimulation. On the other hand, ketamine also influenced...
متن کاملFunctional properties of AMPA and NMDA receptors expressed in identified types of basal ganglia neurons.
AMPA- and NMDA-type glutamate receptors (AMPARs and NMDARs) mediate excitatory synaptic transmission in the basal ganglia and may contribute to excitotoxic injury. We investigated the functional properties of AMPARs and NMDARs expressed by six main types of basal ganglia neurons in acute rat brain slices (principal neurons and cholinergic interneurons of striatum, GABAergic and dopaminergic neu...

متن کاملSubcellular and subsynaptic distribution of the NR1 subunit of the NMDA receptor in the neostriatum and globus pallidus of the rat: co-localization at synapses with the GluR2/3 subunit of the AMPA receptor.
Glutamatergic neurotransmission in the neostriatum and the globus pallidus is mediated through NMDA-type as well as other glutamate receptors and is critical in the expression of basal ganglia function. In order to characterize the cellular, subcellular and subsynaptic localization of NMDA receptors in the neostriatum and globus pallidus, multiple immunocytochemical techniques were applied usin...
متن کاملActivity-dependent bidirectional modification of inhibitory synaptic transmission in rat subthalamic neurons.
Rebound burst activity can be generated in neurons in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) by strong GABAergic inhibitory inputs from the globus pallidus externa (GPe) that is reciprocally connected with the STN. It has been proposed that the rebound burst activity in STN neurons is a key event for generating synchronized rhythmic burst activity in the GPe-STN loop, which may be relevant to the restin...
