Decreased striatal D1 binding density following mesotelencephalic 6-hydroxydopamine injections: an autoradiographic analysis 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Autoradiographic experiments performed on rats with unilateral mesotelencephalic 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) injections revealed reduced binding of [3H]SCH23390 to D1 receptors in the striatum ipsilateral to the neurotoxin as well as increased binding of [3H]spiroperidol to D2 receptors in that hemisphere. These opposite influences of injury on the dopamine receptor subtypes occurred in rats sacrificed at 2 weeks or 11 months postoperatively, but neither change was evident at 4 days postoperatively. Equilibrium saturation analysis performed on rats sacrificed at 8 weeks postoperatively indicated that D1 and D2 receptor changes reflected altered Bmax values without KD modifications. Topographic analysis of the D1 decline by quantitative autoradiography revealed that the D1 decrease was greater in dorsal striatum than ventrally. Those striatal regions that showed greater declines in D1 density correspondingly had the greater losses of [3H]mazindol binding after the denervation, suggesting that the decline of D1 binding is a postsynaptic consequence of the reduced mesostriatal dopaminergic innervation. The findings indicate opposite influences of injury on D2 and D1 receptor levels and raise important questions concerning the mechanism by which 6-OHDA injection affects the D1 sites. 相似文献

Following 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesions of the nigrostriatal dopamine (DA) pathway, rat caudate-putamen (CPu) neurons are supersensitive to the inhibitory effects of both D1 and D2 dopamine (DA) receptor selective agonists. In addition, both the necessity of D1 receptor stimulation for D2 agonist-induced inhibition and the synergistic inhibitory effects of D1 and D2 agonists are abolished by denervation. The present study attempted to determine the relative roles of D1 and D2 DA receptors in the development of denervation supersensitivity to DA agonists and the "uncoupling" of functional interactions between the receptors following 6-OHDA lesions of the nigrostriatal DA pathway. Beginning on the day after an intraventricular 6-OHDA (or vehicle) injection, groups of rats received daily injections of either the selective D1 receptor agonist SKF 38393 (8.0 mg/kg, s.c.), the D2 agonist quinpirole (0.5 mg/kg, s.c.), or saline for 7 days. On the day following the last agonist injection, rats were anesthetized and prepared for extracellular single cell recording with iontophoretic drug administration. Daily administration of quinpirole selectively prevented the development of D2 receptor supersensitivity, whereas daily administration of SKF 38393 prevented the development of both D1 and D2 receptor supersensitivity. In addition, D1, but not D2, agonist treatment prevented the loss of synergistic inhibitory responses typically produced by 6-OHDA lesions. Behavioral observations revealed similar effects; daily injections of SKF 38393, but not quinpirole, prevented contralateral rotational responses to the mixed D1/D2 agonist apomorphine (1.0 mg/kg, s.c.) in rats with unilateral 6-OHDA lesions of the nigrostriatal pathway. After a 4-week withdrawal from repeated D1 agonist treatment, both supersensitive inhibitory responses of CPu neurons and contralateral rotations to apomorphine were evident, indicating that the preventative effects on DA receptor supersensitivity were not permanent. These findings indicate that continued agonist occupation of striatal D1 DA receptors following DA denervation not only prevents the development of D1 DA receptor supersensitivity but also exerts a similar regulation of D2 receptor sensitivity. 相似文献

Denervation accelerates the reappearance of neostriatal D-2 receptors after irreversible receptor blockade 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The effect of denervation on the turnover of striatal dopaminergic D-2 receptors was examined by determining the rate of receptor reappearance in vivo after administration of the irreversible receptor antagonist, N-ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline (EEDQ) to rats that received prior unilateral intracerebral injection of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA). Initial experiments confirmed that EEDQ (10 mg/kg i.p.) induces a severe, prolonged blockade of D-2 receptors. Recovery of [3H]spiroperidol binding occurred at a rate of approximately 9% of control binding per day. 6-OHDA injection into the ascending dopaminergic projection 3 or 5 days prior to EEDQ administration revealed that denervation had no effect on the rate of D-2 receptor recovery during the first post-operative week. By 4-5 weeks postoperatively, however, denervation enhanced the rate of recovery of [3H]spiroperidol binding. These results are consistent with our finding that, when homogenized tissue preparations are used, steady-state receptor density does not change within the first postoperative week but increases by 3-4 weeks after the injury. Saturation analysis determined that both EEDQ and denervation altered the density of binding sites, whereas neither treatment significantly affected the affinity of the receptor for [3H]spiroperidol. By 4-5 weeks postoperatively, the receptor degradation rate constant in the denervated striatum (0.0054/h) was equal to that in the intact striatum (0.0052/h). Thus, only the receptor reappearance rate was elevated in the denervated striatum (3.8 fmol/mg protein/h) relative to the intact striatum (2.8 fmol/mg protein/h). 相似文献

The behavioral effects of selective destruction of the dopamine (DA) input to the patch compartment of rat striatum early in development was investigated. Rat pups were given bilateral intrastriatal (i.s.) injections of the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) on day of birth (P0) or postnatal day 1 (P1), which resulted in selective behavioral alterations following DA agonist treatment in adulthood. Neonatally-lesioned rats exhibited self-biting behavior following treatment with the DA precursor L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA). In response to treatment with the selective D1 agonist SKF38393, there was an increased incidence of abnormal perioral movements. The cataleptogenic effects of the D1 antagonist SCH23390 and the D2 antagonist haloperidol were also studied. Neonatally-lesioned rats were significantly less cataleptic compared to control rats following D1 antagonist treatment, but not following D2 antagonist treatment. Autoradiographs of [3H]mazindol binding to DA uptake sites (a measure of DA terminal density) showed a 'patchy' loss of approx. 40-50% in striatal tissue sections derived from the i.s. lesioned rats. These data suggest that injections of 6-OHDA into the striatum during this early postnatal period cause a DA lesion that results in long-term effects on a D1 receptor system. 相似文献

The role of G-proteins in D2 receptor supersensitivity was studied in striatal membranes from rats with unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) induced lesions of the nigral dopamine (DA) system. Thirteen months after the lesion the number of [3H]raclopride binding sites was increased in the DA denervated striatum, but no changes in ligand binding affinities and in proportion of high-affinity agonist binding sites could be detected. The affinity of [35S]GTPgammaS binding was unaltered after the striatal DA denervation, whereas the binding affinity of GDP was decreased in the DA denervated as compared to the intact striatum. It is proposed that the decrease in GDP binding affinity to D2 DA receptor-coupled G proteins is an important factor in the D2 receptor supersensitivity following degeneration of the striatal DA terminals. 相似文献

In the previous paper it was demonstrated that striatal dopamine (DA) D1 and D2 receptor subtypes and muscarinic M1 and M2 receptor subtypes show differing responses to lesions of the mesostriatal DA system. To examine this differential regulation further rats were given unilateral injections of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) or colchicine into the ventral tegmental area (VTA), or treated chronically with reserpine or saline. Two weeks later the animals were tested for their behavioral response to a subthreshold dose of apomorphine and 24 h later their brains were removed and processed for quantitative autoradiography or for analysis of DA levels by high-performance liquid chromatography. The 6-OHDA-lesioned animals showed a supersensitive rotational response to apomorphine. The loss of DA, loss of DA uptake sites, regulation of DA D1 and D2 receptors and regulation of the muscarinic cholinergic system was similar to the previous paper. Injection of colchicine in the VTA resulted in incomplete loss of striatal DA (50%), [3H]mazindol binding (50%), and no behavioral supersensitivity to apomorphine. There was a small loss of presynaptically located D2 receptors (13%). Similar to the 6-OHDA lesions there was a loss of D1 (12%) and M1 receptors. Reserpine treatment produced an 86% decrease in DA levels, an enhanced stereotyped responsiveness to apomorphine, and an increase of both D2 (28%) and D1 receptors (26%). There was a loss of muscarinic M1 but not M2 receptors. Thus removal of DA terminals or blockade of transport of proteins in the mesostriatal axons can lead to a reduction in D1 receptor density in the striatum. In contrast, loss of DA without removal of DA terminals leads to a significant up-regulation of the D1 receptor. D2 receptors show increases following removal of DA or of DA terminals. Alteration in the muscarinic cholinergic system following damage to the mesostriatal DA system is a complex response not mimicked by either reserpine or colchicine treatment. 相似文献

To evaluate the influence of patch and matrix ingrowth of DA terminals upon striatal DA (dopamine) receptor function, we performed bilateral intrastriatal (i.s.) or single intracisternal (i.c.) injections of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) into rat pups at various postnatal ages and determined D1 and D2 receptor binding, adenylate cyclase activities and markers for presynaptic DA terminal density and turnover as the animals matured. All injection schedules yielded: (a) variable and partial loss of DA, (b) increased DA turnover, (c) small (15-40%) increases in D1 receptor number but no change in affinity for antagonist ([3H]SCH 23390), (d) 2-3-fold increases in affinity of D1 receptors for agonist (SKF 38393) with preserved regulation of agonist affinity by guanine nucleotide, (e) no significant changes in DA-, guanine-nucleotide-, manganese- and forskolin-stimulated AC (adenylate cyclase) activity. D2 receptor binding was evaluated between 1 and 7 weeks of age in animals with i.s. treatment and 7 and 10 weeks of age in animals with i.c. treatment and was reduced by 40-50% with both treatment regimens. [3H]mazindol binding, a marker for presynaptic terminal DA transport sites, was reduced 30-40% by multiple i.s. or i.c. treatment regimens. In animals treated with one i.s. injection, [3H]mazindol binding was reduced 70% at 1 week of age, equal to control by 2 weeks and 14-46% greater than control between 3 and 7 weeks. We conclude that striatal D1 receptor sites maintain their density and second messenger function independently of postsynaptic DA terminal ingrowth, whereas the development of D2 receptor sites is sensitive to disruptions of DA terminal ingrowth. 相似文献

Lesions to the dopamine (DA) system in early postnatal development have different behavioral consequences compared to lesions made in adulthood. Intrastriatal injections of the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) on the day of birth (PO) or postnatal day 1 (P1) produce a selective supersensitivity to D1 receptor agonists and a subsensitivity to D1 antagonists (Neal and Joyce, 1991a). In this paper, we describe the long-term effects of early DA loss on DA receptor regulation. Pups received bilateral intrastriatal injections of the neurotoxin 6-OHDA (4 micrograms per striatum) on PO or P1. Adult rats were killed at 90 days of age and the brains were processed for quantitative autoradiography (QAR) or tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunocytochemistry. Cohorts were tested for the behavioral responses to the selective D1 receptor agonist SKF38393 (10 mg/kg). Neonatally lesioned rats exhibited increases in abnormal perioral movements in response to D1 receptor stimulation. There was a heterogenous and patchy loss (40-50%) of [3H]mazindol binding to high-affinity DA uptake sites (a marker of DA terminal density) and a similar loss of TH-like immunoreactivity within the striata of the neonatally lesioned rats. There was also a reduction in the number of mu-opioid receptor patches (labelled with [3H]naloxone), a marker for the striatal patch compartment, and a similar patchy loss of D1 binding sites (labeled with [3H]SCH23390). The binding of [3H]spiroperidol to D2 sites was not altered. This is in contrast to the changes observed following adult 6-OHDA lesions, wherein there is a significant increase in the number of D2 binding sites (Joyce, 1991a,b). The results are discussed with respect to the behavioral consequences of neonatal lesions and the differences between neonatal and adult lesions. 相似文献

We examined the status of dopamine (DA) D1 and D2 receptors by using [3H]SCH 23390 and [3H]spiperone binding, respectively, and DA uptake sites by using [3H]mazindol binding in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. SHR showed significantly higher [3H]SCH 23390 and [3H]spiperone binding in the caudate-putamen (CPu), the nucleus accumbens (NAc) and the olfactory tubercle (OT) in comparison to the SD rats. There were no significant differences in [3H]mazindol-labeled DA uptake sites between the two strains. Unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) injection into the striatum resulted in more than 90% depletion of DA uptake sites in the CPu in both strains. 6-OHDA-induced DA depletion was associated with significant increases in striatal [3H]spiperone binding which were of similar magnitude in the SD rats (+64.1%) and SHR (+51.3%). There were only small decreases (-5.4%) in D1 receptor binding in the dorsolateral aspect of the CPu in the SHR, whereas there were no changes in striatal D1 receptors in the SD rats. These results indicate that, although the SHR have higher concentrations of both D1 and D2 receptors in the basal ganglia, these receptors are regulated in a fashion similar to DA receptors in SD rats after 6-OHDA-induced striatal DA depletion. 相似文献

The selective dopaminergic antagonist ligands [3H]SCH 23390 and [3H]sulpiride were used to reveal autoradiographically dopamine D1 and D2 receptors, respectively, in brain sections from rats which had received unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) injections destroying ascending nigrostriatal neurones. The binding of both ligands to striatal sections was first shown to be saturable, reversible and of high affinity and specificity [( 3H]SCH 23390: Bmax 2.16 pmol/mg protein, Kd 1.4 nM; [3H]sulpiride; Bmax 0.67 pmol/mg protein, Kd 10.7 nM). After unilateral stereotaxic 6-OHDA injections, rats rotated contralaterally when challenged with apomorphine (0.5 mg/kg), or specific D1 or D2 agonists, SKF 38393 (1.0-5.0 mg/kg) and LY 171555 (0.05-0.5 mg/kg), respectively. Loss of forebrain dopaminergic terminals was assessed autoradiographically using [3H]mazindol to label dopamine uptake sites. A loss of approximately 90-95% of uptake sites was reproducibly accompanied by an enhanced density of binding ipsilaterally for the D2 ligand, [3H]sulpiride, in all areas of the striatum, but most markedly in the lateral areas. An increase in the D2 binding site density was also seen in the ipsilateral nucleus accumbens and the olfactory tubercle. In contrast, in the same animals, the striatal D1 receptors were far less affected by dopaminergic denervation, with no consistent changes seen in the binding of [3H]SCH 23390. These results suggest that dopamine D2 receptors are more susceptible than D1 receptors to changes after dopaminergic denervation, which is expressed as an increase in the density of binding sites revealed here with [3H]sulpiride. 相似文献

A lesion of the dopamine (DA)-containing nigrostriatal pathway with 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) results in an increase in the density of nerve terminal glutamate immunolabeling and in the mean percentage of asymmetrical synapses containing a discontinuous postsynaptic density [Meshul et al. (1999) Neuroscience 88:1-16]. Similar alterations in striatal glutamate synapses have been reported following blockade of striatal DA D-2 receptors with subchronic haloperidol treatment [Meshul et al. (1994) Brain Res 648:181-195]. The haloperidol-induced change in glutamate synapses was blocked by coadministration of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) noncompetitive receptor antagonist MK-801. In order to determine if blockade of NMDA receptors could alter the density of nerve terminal glutamate immunolabeling following a 6-OHDA lesion of the nigrostriatal pathway, MK-801 was administered to lesioned animals for 14 days. In addition, the number of apomorphine-induced contralateral rotations was determined prior to and following the administration of MK-801. MK-801 administration reversed the increase in the density of nerve terminal glutamate immunolabeling due to a 6-OHDA lesion. There was a small but significant decrease in the number of apomorphine-induced contralateral rotations following administration of MK-801 compared to the number of rotations prior to treatment with the NMDA antagonist. These results demonstrate that blockade of postsynaptic NMDA receptors affects the density of presynaptic glutamate immunolabeling and that this change in nerve terminal glutamate density is associated with a decreased behavioral response to direct DA receptor stimulation. Whether the effect of MK-801 is directly on the striatum or acts through other excitatory pathways of the basal ganglia remains unclear. 相似文献

The effects of chronic ‘continuous’ infusion and ‘intermittent’ modes of levodopa/carbidopa administration on apomorphine induced circling behaviour, DA uptake sites (labelled with [3H]mazindol) and D1 and D2 DA receptor binding (labelled with [3H]SCH 23390 and [3H]sulpiride, respectively) were investigated in rats with unilateral 6-OHDA lesions of the medial forebrain bundle. The circling behaviour in response to apomorphine was greatly enhanced following chronic ‘intermittent’ but not ‘continuous’ levodopa treatments. Following the ‘intermittent’ regime, the lower dose of apomorphine induced a period of intense circling with delayed onset and rapid offset, than in rats given either ‘continuous’ infusion of levodopa or saline. The 6-OHDA lesion itself induced gross depletion of [3H]mazindol binding in all striatal subregions, NAc and OT, but not frontal cortex. [3H]Sulpiride binding in the ventrolateral striatal quadrant was increased on the denervated side and this correlated with the peak contralateral turns in response to 0.5 mg/kg apomorphine challenge. This asymmetry in striatal [3H]sulpiride binding was reduced in both groups of rats receiving levodopa. [3H]sulpiride binding in the NAc and OT and [3H]SCH 23390 binding in the striatum, NAc, OT and SNr were unaffected by DA denervation or either regime of levodopa treatments. ‘Continuous’ infusion and not ‘intermittent’ injections of levodopa reduced [3H]mazindol binding in the striatal subregions and the frontal cortex on both the denervated and intact sides. The potentiation of the behavioural response to apomorphine by chronic ‘intermittent’ levodopa treatment does not correspond with the levodopa induced alterations in striatal or extrastriatal DA receptors. In the same group of animals the narrowing of the duration of response to the lower dose of apomorphine may mimic the fluctuations in response to levodopa, seen clinically in long-term levodopa treated parkinsonian patients. 相似文献

Foetal dopamine cell suspensions or sham preparations were implanted into the denervated striatum of rats with a unilateral 6-hydroxy-dopamine (6-OHDA) lesion of the medial forebrain bundle. Some animals were also treated with L-DOPA (200 mg/kg/24 h) and carbidopa (25 mg/kg/24 h) in the drinking water for 5 weeks, followed by a 3-week drug-free period. Rotational responses to apomorphine and (+)-amphetamine were assessed, and the density of D1 and D2 dopamine receptors was evaluated autoradiographically in striatal slices exposed to [3H]SCH 23390 or [3H]spiperone. Foetal grafts reduces apomorphine-induced contralateral rotation and prevented the development of apomorphine-induced stereotypy. Foetal grafts abolished (+)-amphetamine-induced ipsilateral rotation. These effects of the grafts were not altered by treatment with L-DOPA. A unilateral 6-OHDA lesion of the nigrostriatal pathway resulted in an ipsilateral increase in D2 receptor density most marked in the lateral and dorsomedial quadrants of the striatum compared with the contralateral side. Foetal ventral mesencephalic grafts implanted into the lesioned striatum decreased D2 receptor density to levels found in the contralateral intact striatum. Chronic L-DOPA and carbidopa treatment did not alter the effect of the grafts. A 6-OHDA lesion resulted in a reduction of D1 receptor density in the lateral areas of the lesioned striatum at Level 2. The presence of a foetal ventral mesencephalic graft either alone or together with L-DOPA treatment did not alter the lesion-induced changes in D1 binding density. 相似文献

Quantitative autoradiography was utilized to examine the response of the dopamine (DA) and muscarinic cholinergic system within the striatum to lesions of the mesostriatal DA system following intranigral 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) injections. In addition, the response of DA system was examined in the striatum of animals treated with low, medium, or high doses of 6-OHDA made intracerebroventricularly (icv). Three weeks following removal of the mesostriatal DA fibers with intranigral 6-OHDA, there was an almost complete depletion of DA and [3H]mazindol binding throughout the striatum. The resulting increase in D2 receptors labeled with [3H]spiroperidol (27%) was most evident in the lateral striatum and topographically correlated with an increase in choline uptake sites labeled with [3H]hemicholinium-3 (20%). There was a smaller but significant decrease in D1 receptors labeled with [3H]SCH 23390 (15-18%) that was not topographically related to changes in [3H]spiroperidol or [3H]hemicholinium-3 binding. All doses of icv 6-OHDA produced a significant loss of DA and of [3H]mazindol binding as compared to vehicle injections that was more pronounced in the medial than in the lateral striatum. No increase in D1 receptors was observed with any dose of 6-OHDA and greater than 90% loss of DA and [3H]mazindol resulted in an increase in D2 receptors in the lateral striatum and a reduction in D1 receptors in the dorsal striatum. These data are consistent with the evidence that there is independent regulation of the two subtypes of the DA receptor. Moreover, the distribution and regulation of the subtypes of the muscarinic receptor were independent. Muscarinic M2 receptors ([3H]N-methylscopolamine in presence of excess pirenzepine) showed a lateral to medial gradient (highest laterally) that was related to the pattern of choline uptake sites and D2 receptors. Loss of DA resulted in a reduction in M2 receptors (24-30%) that was correlated with the increase in choline uptake sites. In contrast, M1 ([3H]pirenzepine) receptors showed a reverse gradient from the M2 receptor and a smaller reduction following loss of DA. 相似文献

The effect of administration of the muscarinic antagonist scopolamine on the increase in striatal preproenkephalin (PPE) mRNA following a 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesion or chronic D2 dopamine (DA) antagonist treatment was examined by dot-blot hybridization. Administration of scopolamine dose-dependently attenuated the 6-OHDA lesion-induced increase in striatal PPE mRNA. Administration of the D2 DA antagonist eticlopride to naive rats increased striatal PPE mRNA in a dose- and time-dependent fashion. Chronic coadministration of scopolamine attenuated the eticlopride-induced increase in striatal PPE mRNA. Chronic administration of scopolamine alone did not alter striatal PPE mRNA levels. In contrast, chronic administration of eticlopride, scopolamine or the two combined decreased striatal preprotachykinin (PPT) mRNA to the same extent, suggesting that there was no direct interaction between D2 dopaminergic and cholinergic mechanisms in the regulation of striatal PPT mRNA. These data indicate that DA differentially regulates striatal PPE and PPT mRNA and suggest that dopaminergic regulation of striatal PPE mRNA is mediated in part through D2 DA effects on striatal cholinergic neurons. 相似文献

In the present experiment we studied the ability of embryonic striatal grafts to protect against striatal quinolinic acid (QA)-induced excitotoxicity in a previously established double lesion rat model of striatonigral degeneration (SND), the neuropathological substrate of parkinsonism associated with multiple system atrophy (MSA). Male Wistar rats received under halothane inhalation anesthesia a 6-hydroxydopamine 6-OHDA injection into the left medial forebrain bundle. Four to 5 weeks later apomorphine-induced rotation behavior was tested. Rats were divided into two treatment groups receiving either embryonic striatal cell suspensions or sham injections. Apomorphine-induced rotation behavior was retested 2 and 4 weeks after the grafting procedure. Following the rotation test animals of the striatal and sham graft group received a stereotaxic injection of 150 nmol QA. Again rotation behavior was assessed 2 and 4 weeks after lesioning. Brains were then processed to dopamine reuptake ([(3)H]mazindol), dopamine D1 ([(3)H]SCH23390), and D2 ([(3)H]spiperone) receptor autoradiography. Gliosis was detected using [(3)H]PK11195, a marker for peripheral benzodiazepine binding sites. Behavioral and autoradiographic analysis failed to show striatal protection in 6-OHDA prelesioned animals receiving embryonic striatal grafts. These findings indicate that beneficial protective effects of striatal grafts implanted into host striatum prior to excitotoxic insults are abolished in the presence of severe dopaminergic denervation. Our present results are relevant to future applications of neural grafting in MSA-SND. 相似文献

Retrograde degeneration of nigrostriatal neurons induced by intrastriatal 6-hydroxydopamine injection in rats. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Quantitative receptor autoradiography was used to assess the effects of unilateral intrastriatal injections of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) on the distribution of D1 and D2 dopamine (DA) receptors and of DA uptake sites in the mesostriatal pathway. [3H]Mazindol-labeled DA uptake sites were reduced both in the striatum (-97%) and in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) (-88%) on the injected side. There were also significant decreases of dopamine uptake sites in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) (-73%) and in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) (-70%). Changes in [3H]mazindol binding were also found within the contralateral VTA (-30%) and SNpc (-13%) but not in the contralateral-striatum. [3H]SCH23390-labeled D1 receptors were significantly reduced in the dorsomedial (-18%) and ventromedial (-14%) aspects of the striatum ipsilateral to the side of the lesions. In contrast, the concentration of [3H]spiperone-labeled D2 receptors was not altered. There were also significant decreases in D1 (-18%) and of D2 (-27%) receptors in the SNpc and of D1 (-10%) in the SN pars reticulata (SNpr). These results suggest that oxyradical-induced damage in striatal DA terminals could lead to retrograde changes in the SNpc. In addition, the data indicate that unilateral striatal damage can result in bilateral changes in the SNpc, thus confirming the interdependence of the two nigrostriatal pathways in rats. 相似文献

We investigated the effect of selective opiate antagonists on striatal acetylcholine (ACh) and dopamine (DA) release. The mu-receptor antagonist beta-funaltrexamine (beta-FNA), the delta-antagonist naltrindole (NTI), and the kappa-antagonist norbinaltorphimine (nor-BNI) were used to selectively block different subtypes of opiate receptors. The experiments were carried out on isolated superfused striatal slices of rats, loaded with [3H]choline or [3H]dopamine. beta-FNA and NTI significantly enhanced the electrical field stimulation-evoked release of ACh but only if the dopaminergic input had been impaired either by chemical denervation or D2 dopamine receptor blockade. By contrast, neither the selective nor nonselective antagonists had any modulatory effect on the release of dopamine. It is concluded, therefore, that the release of ACh is tonically controlled by endogenous opioid peptide(s) through the stimulation of mu- and delta-opiate receptors located on cholinergic axon terminals, in addition to the tonic control by DA. 相似文献

Dopamine receptors: effects of chronic L-dopa and bromocriptine treatment in an animal model of Parkinson's disease 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Male albino rats received a stereotaxic injection of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) into the right substantia nigra. Animals demonstrating contralateral rotations 2 weeks postoperatively with apomorphine (0.5 mg/kg i.p.) were treated with L-Dopa (55 mg/kg i.p.), bromocriptine (2 mg/kg i.p.), or polyethylene glycol (vehicle) every 12 h for 30 days. Striatal dopamine (DA) receptors were analyzed by Scatchard plot using 3H-spiroperidol (3H-SP) as ligand. 3,4-Dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and DA were measured by use of high pressure liquid chromatography. 6-OHDA lesions produced a supersensitivity in striatal DA receptors. Chronic L-Dopa or bromocriptine treatment reversed this supersensitivity. Neither lesion nor drug treatment alone or together produced a significant change in affinity (KD) for 3H-SP. Drug treatment alone also had no effect on Bmax. DA and DOPAC levels were reduced by greater than 98% in lesioned striata. Neither drug treatment affected DA or DOPAC levels as compared with controls. These results indicate that chronic administration of either bromocriptine or L-Dopa will reverse the DA receptor denervation supersensitivity in striatum seen following 6-OHDA lesion. This reversal may play a role in the clinical changes seen in Parkinson's disease patients following chronic use of these drugs. 相似文献

The postnatal development of D1 dopaminergic receptors (D1 receptors) was investigated in the rat striatum in relation to distribution of mu opiate receptor patches and islandic tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-immunoreactive fibers. The possible influence of dopaminergic (DA) fibers originating from the substantia nigra on the postnatal distribution of striatal D1 and mu receptors was also examined by producing an early 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesion of DA fibers. D1 and mu receptors were labeled with selective ligands: [3H]SCH 23390 and [3H]DAGO, respectively. During the first postnatal week, control rats showed patches of dense D1 binding sites in the entire rostro-caudal extension of the striatum. The localization of D1 receptor patches corresponded to striosomes identified by TH-immunoreactive islands. The striatal distribution of mu receptors was relatively homogeneous at postnatal day 0 (P0) but was clearly patchy at P3-P4. During the second postnatal week the striosomal pattern of D1 binding sites disappeared along a dorso-ventral gradient whereas mu binding sites remained distributed in patches. Densitometric measurements showed that there was a parallel increase of D1 binding sites in both striosomes and the surrounding matrix from P0 to P4. The disappearance of D1 receptor patches observed in the dorsal striatum at P9 was due to a faster increase of D1 binding sites in the matrix than in striosomes between P4 and P9 whereas a significant difference was still observed between these two compartments in the ventral striatum of P9 rats. During the third postnatal week, the density of D1 binding sites still increased but became progressively uniform in the whole striatum. The intrastriatal injection of 6-OHDA in 2-day-old rats produced a local disappearance of TH-immunoreactive fibers in the striatum and a distal degeneration of TH-immunoreactive cell bodies in the substantia nigra. However an early lesion of striatal DA fibers did not modify the pattern of development or the density of D1 binding sites during the postnatal period examined (1 and 3 weeks after the lesion). The distribution of mu receptors was unchanged 1 week after the lesion but showed a clear disorganization 3 weeks after the lesion. We discuss the differential influence of DA fibers on the distribution of D1 and mu receptors in the rat striatum and the possible role of DA in the regulation of the expression of mu receptors. 相似文献
