The neuromodulator adenosine is released during seizure activity to provide negative feedback suppression of ongoing activity and to delay the occurrence of the next burst of activity. Adenosine acts via multiple G-protein-coupled receptors including the A1 receptor (A1R) which inhibits neurotransmitter release and hyperpolarises neuronal membrane potential. The hyperpolarisation is produced, at least in part, by the activation of G-protein-activated inwardly rectifying K+ (GIRK) channels. We have used tertiapin-Q (TQ), a potent and selective inhibitor of GIRK channels, to assess the role of GIRK channels in controlling seizure activity in areas CA1 and CA2 of mouse hippocampal slices. TQ (100-300 nM) blocked ~50% of the adenosine-mediated membrane potential hyperpolarisation of hippocampal CA1 and CA2 neurons. TQ (100 nM) had no significant effect on synaptic transmission in area CA1 of the hippocampus but enhanced transmission in CA2, an effect prevented by blocking A1Rs. TQ (100 nM) increased the frequency of spontaneous activity (induced by removing Mg2+ and increasing K+) and blunted the effects of exogenous adenosine on the suppression of activity. TQ had a significantly greater effect on electrically-stimulated seizure activity induced in CA2 versus that in CA1, producing a greater increase in both the duration and amplitude of the stimulated bursts. This is consistent with the greater A1R density and A1R activation tone in CA2. Thus GIRK channels play a role in the supressing effects of adenosine on seizure activity.

A1受体激活的GIRK通道在抑制海马癫痫发作活动中的作用。

在癫痫发作活动中释放神经调节剂腺苷,以抑制正在进行的活动,并延迟下一次活动爆发的发生。腺苷通过多种G蛋白偶联受体起作用,包括A1受体(A1R),该受体抑制神经递质的释放并使神经元膜电位超极化。超极化至少部分是通过激活G蛋白激活的向内整流K +(GIRK)通道产生的。我们已使用tertiapin-Q(TQ),一种有效且选择性的GIRK通道抑制剂,来评估GIRK通道在控制小鼠海马切片CA1和CA2区癫痫发作活动中的作用。TQ(100-300 nM)阻止了约50%的腺苷介导的海马CA1和CA2神经元膜电位超极化。TQ(100 nM)对海马CA1区的突触传递没有显着影响,但对CA2的传递具有增强作用,这种作用可通过阻断A1R来阻止。TQ(100 nM)增加了自发活动的频率(通过去除Mg2 +和增加K +引起),并减弱了外源腺苷对活动抑制的影响。与CA1相比,TQ对CA2诱导的电刺激癫痫发作活动具有明显更大的影响,从而在刺激爆发的持续时间和幅度上都产生了更大的增加。这与CA2中更大的A1R密度和A1R激活音一致。因此,GIRK通道在腺苷对癫痫发作活动的抑制作用中起作用。TQ(100 nM)增加了自发活动的频率(通过去除Mg2 +和增加K +引起),并减弱了外源腺苷对活动抑制的影响。与CA1相比,TQ对CA2诱导的电刺激癫痫发作活动具有明显更大的影响,从而在刺激爆发的持续时间和幅度上都产生了更大的增加。这与CA2中更大的A1R密度和A1R激活音一致。因此,GIRK通道在腺苷对癫痫发作活动的抑制作用中起作用。TQ(100 nM)增加了自发活动的频率(通过去除Mg2 +和增加K +引起),并减弱了外源腺苷对活动抑制的影响。与CA1相比,TQ对CA2诱导的电刺激癫痫发作活动具有明显更大的影响,从而在刺激爆发的持续时间和幅度上都产生了更大的增加。这与CA2中更大的A1R密度和A1R激活音一致。因此,GIRK通道在腺苷对癫痫发作活动的抑制作用中起作用。在受激脉冲的持续时间和幅度上产生更大的增加。这与CA2中更大的A1R密度和A1R激活音一致。因此,GIRK通道在腺苷对癫痫发作活动的抑制作用中起作用。在受激脉冲的持续时间和幅度上产生更大的增加。这与CA2中更大的A1R密度和A1R激活音一致。因此,GIRK通道在腺苷对癫痫发作活动的抑制作用中起作用。
