چکیده
In an investigation of the mechanisms of the neuroprotective effects of theanine (gamma-glutamylethylamide) in brain ischemia, inhibition by theanine of the binding of [3H](RS)-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid (AMPA), [3H]kainate, and [3H](E)-3-(2-phenyl-2-carboxyethenyl)-4,6-dichloro-1-H-indole-2-carboxylic acid (MDL 105,519) to glutamate receptors was studied in terms of its possible inhibiting effects on the three receptor subtypes (AMPA, kainate, and NMDA glycine), with rat cortical neurons. Theanine bound the three receptors, but its IC50 of theanine was 80- to 30,000-fold less than that of L-glutamic acid.

Properties of quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate binding sites in rat brain as determined by quantitative autoradiography.
Quisqualate, a glutamate analogue, displaced L-[3H]glutamate binding in a biphasic manner, corresponding to "high-affinity" and "low-affinity" binding sites. High-affinity quisqualate sites were termed "quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate" binding sites. Quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate binding was regionally distributed, with the highest levels present in the cerebellar molecular layer....

The binding of (RS)-alpha-[3H]amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid ([3H]AMPA), a selective ligand for non-N-methyl-D-aspartate excitatory amino acid receptors, was investigated in rat brain using an autoradiographic receptor binding technique. [3H]AMPA binding sites were widely distributed throughout the rat central nervous system, and the rank order of potency of displacers of [3...
متن کاملThiocyanate stabilizes AMPA binding to the quisqualate receptor.
Calcium and chloride ions stimulated [3H]glutamate binding to quisqualate-sensitive [3H]glutamate binding sites 4-fold, as measured by quantitative autoradiography, whereas 100 mM potassium thiocyanate had no additional effect. In contrast, calcium and chloride had little effect on the binding of [3H](RS)-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid ([3H]AMPA), but 100 mM thiocyanat...
متن کاملPhospholipase A2 modulates different subtypes of excitatory amino acid receptors: autoradiographic evidence.
Exogenous phospholipases have been used extensively as tools to study the role of membrane lipids in receptor mechanisms. We used in vitro quantitative autoradiography to evaluate the effect of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) on N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and non-NMDA glutamate receptors in rat brain. PLA2 pretreatment induced a significant increase in alpha-[3H]amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-isoxazole-4-pr...

Using quantitative autoradiography, we have investigated the binding sites for the potent competitive nonN-methyl-Daspartate (non-NMDA) glutamate receptor antagonist [ 3H]6-cyano-7-nitro-quinoxaline-2,3-dione ( [3H]CNQX) in rat brain sections. [3H]CNQX binding was regionally distributed, with the highest levels of binding present in hippocampus in the stratum radiatum of CA 1, stratum lucidum o...
