摘要

烟碱可以增强学习记忆功能,但其相关机制仍不清楚。海马长时程增强被认为是学习记忆的细胞机制。该研究室以往研究表明,当单脉冲的强度为诱发80%最大群体锋电位时,烟碱(10#mu#mol/L)可以在海马CA1区诱导长时程增强样反应。该文通过细胞外记录离体海马脑片CA1区锥体细胞层群体锋电位,探讨烟碱诱导长时程增强样反应所涉及的烟碱受体亚型与相应的神经递质释放。结果显示,烟碱诱导的长时程增强样反应可以被美加明(mecamylamine,1#mu#mol/L)或#kappa#--银环蛇毒素(#kappa#--bungarotoxin,0.1#mu#mol/L)阻断,但不被dihydro--#beta#--erythtroidine(DHBE,10#mu#mol/L)阻断。烟碱诱导的长时程增强样反应可以被普萘洛尔(propranolol,10#mu#mol/L)阻断,但不被酚妥拉明(phentolamine,10#mu#mol/L)或阿托品(atropine,10#mu#mol/L)阻断。以上结果提示,#kappa#--银环蛇毒素敏感的烟碱受体激活引起的去甲肾上腺素释放参与烟碱诱导的海马CA1区长时程增强样反应。

Abstract

Nicotine enhances the function of learning and memory, but the underlying mechanism still remains unclear. Hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP) is assumed to be a cellular mechanism of learning and memory. Our previous experiments showed that with the single pulses evoking 80% of the maximal population spike (PS) amplitude, nicotine (10 #mu#mol/L) induced LTP-like response in the hippocampal CAI region. In the present study, the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subtypes and relevant neurotransmitter releases involved in LTP-like response induced by nicotine were investigated by extracellularly recording the PS in the pyramidal cell layer in the hippocampal CAI region in vitro. LTP-like response induced by nicotine was blocked by mecamylamine (1 #mu#mol/L) or #kappa#-bungarotoxin (0.1 #mu#mol/L), but not by dihydro-#beta#-erythtroidine (DH#beta#E, 10 #mu#mol/L). Moreover, it was inhibited by propranolol (10 #mu#mol/L), but not by phentolamine (10 #mu#mol/L) or atropine (10 #mu#mol/L). The results suggest that noradrenaline release secondary to the activation of #beta#-bungarotoxin-sensitive nAChRs participates in LTP-like response induced by nicotine in the hippocampal CAI region.
