The dopamine- and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein, M(r) 32 kDa (DARPP-32), plays a key role in dopaminoceptive neurons in the neostriatum (and likely in other brain regions) in signal transduction pathways regulated by a variety of neurotransmitters, neuromodulators, and neuropeptides. Phosphorylation at Thr34 by protein kinase A converts DARPP-32 into a potent inhibitor of the multifunctional serine/threonine protein phosphatase, PP-1. Phosphorylation at Thr75 by Cdk5 converts DARPP-32 into an inhibitor of protein kinase A. The state of phosphorylation of DARPP-32 at Thr34 also depends on the phosphorylation state of Ser102 and Ser137, which are phosphorylated by CK2 and CK1, respectively. By virtue of its regulation of its four phosphorylation sites by a large number of physiological and pharmacological stimuli, and through its ability to modulate the activity of PP-1 and protein kinase A, DARPP-32 plays a key role in integrating a variety of electrophysiological, transcriptional, and behavioral responses. This review focuses on the critical role that DARPP-32 plays in mediating the actions of a broad range of drugs of abuse.

The D1-like (D1, D5) and D2-like (D2, D3, D4) classes of dopamine receptors each has shared signaling properties that contribute to the definition of the receptor class, although some differences among subtypes within a class have been identified. D1-like receptor signaling is mediated chiefly by the heterotrimeric G proteins Galphas and Galphaolf, which cause sequential activation of adenylate cyclase, cylic AMP-dependent protein kinase, and the protein phosphatase-1 inhibitor DARPP-32. The increased phosphorylation that results from the combined effects of activating cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and inhibiting protein phosphatase 1 regulates the activity of many receptors, enzymes, ion channels, and transcription factors. D1 or a novel D1-like receptor also signals via phospholipase C-dependent and cyclic AMP-independent mobilization of intracellular calcium. D2-like receptor signaling is mediated by the heterotrimeric G proteins Galphai and Galphao. These pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins regulate some effectors, such as adenylate cyclase, via their Galpha subunits, but regulate many more effectors such as ion channels, phospholipases, protein kinases, and receptor tyrosine kinases as a result of the receptor-induced liberation of Gbetagamma subunits. In addition to interactions between dopamine receptors and G proteins, other protein:protein interactions such as receptor oligomerization or receptor interactions with scaffolding and signal-switching proteins are critical for regulation of dopamine receptor signaling.

The cyclin-dependent kinase Cdk5 and DARPP-32 (dopamine- and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein of Mr 32 kDa)-dependent signaling have been implicated in the regulation of dopaminergic neurotransmission after chronic cocaine treatment. In this study, we examined if Cdk5 signaling participates in the behavioral and biochemical effect of acute and chronic methamphetamine (METH) treatment. We found that Cdk5 activity and the membrane fraction of p35 protein, a Cdk5 activator, in the ventral striatum increased transiently after an injection of 4 mg/kg METH, while intra-accumbens treatment with a Cdk5 inhibitor, roscovitine, prevented the acute METH-induced locomotor activation. The phosphorylation of DARPP-32 at both Thr75 and Thr34 was differentially regulated after acute METH treatment, but the levels of total Cdk5, p35, and DARPP-32 remained the same. To determine if Cdk5 signaling was associated with behavior sensitization to METH, rats that received repetitive injections of METH (4 mg/kg) for 14 consecutive days were analyzed at withdrawal day 7. The results indicate that Cdk5 activity and p35 translocation in the ventral striatum were upregulated in METH-sensitized rats; treatment with roscovitine in the nucleus accumbens effectively suppressed the 1 mg/kg METH-induced behavioral sensitization. Concomitantly, a decrease in the amount of PP-2A and DARPP-32 phosphorylation at Thr34, but an increase in phosphorylation of DARPP-32/Thr75, was observed in the ventral striatum of sensitized rats. The overall results demonstrate that Cdk5/p35 and downstream signaling in the ventral striatum play a critical role in the effects of acute METH treatment as well as the development of behavioral METH sensitization.

Acute cocaine administration increases extraneuronal dopamine and Thr34 phosphorylation of dopamine- and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein (M(r) 32 kDa; DARPP-32) in striatal and cortical areas. Novel palatable food consumption increases extraneuronal dopamine in the same areas. We examined the DARPP-32 phosphorylation pattern in food non-deprived rats at different times after vanilla sugar consumption. The phosphorylation state of DARPP-32 and two cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) substrates, GluR1 and NR1, were detected by immunoblotting. Thirty to 45 min after vanilla sugar consumption, phospho-Thr34 DARPP-32, GluR1 and NR1 levels increased in the nucleus accumbens, and phospho-Thr75 DARPP-32 levels decreased. At 60 min, all parameters returned to baseline values. However, 2 and 3 h after vanilla sugar consumption, phospho-Thr34 DARPP-32 levels decreased, while phospho-Thr75 DARPP-32 levels increased. In contrast to the pattern observed in the NAcS, no delayed changes in DARPP-32 phosphorylation were observed in the mPFC. Both early and delayed DARPP-32, GluR1 and NR1 phosphorylation changes were prevented by a dopamine D1 receptor antagonist administration. The delayed modifications in nucleus accumbens DARPP-32 phosphorylation were prevented by an mGluR5 antagonist administration. The mesolimbic dopaminergic response to an unfamiliar taste is correlated to a gustatory memory trace development, and the observed changes in DARPP-32 phosphorylation may be part of this process.

Mammalian neuronal cells abundantly express a de-ubiquitinating isozyme, ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH L1). Loss of UCH L1 function causes dying-back type of axonal degeneration. However, the function of UCH L1 in neuronal cells remains elusive. Here we show that overexpression of UCH L1 potentiated ATP-induced currents due to the activation of P2X receptors that are widely distributed in the brain and involved in various biological activities including neurosecretion. ATP-induced inward currents were measured in mock-, wild-type or mutant (C90S)-UCH L1-transfected PC12 cells under the conventional whole-cell patch clamp configuration. The amplitude of ATP-induced currents was significantly greater in both wild-type and C90S UCH L1-transfected cells, suggesting that hydrolase activity was not involved but increased level of mono-ubiquitin might play an important role. The increased currents were dependent on cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and Ca2+ and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMKII) but not protein kinase C. In addition, ATP-induced currents were likely to be modified via dopamine and cyclic AMP-regulated phosphoprotein (DARPP-32) that is regulated by PKA and phosphatases. Our finding shows the first evidence that there is a relationship between UCH L1 and neurotransmitter receptor, suggesting that UCH L1 may play an important role in synaptic activity.

Nigrostriatal dopamine depletion disrupts striatal medium spiny neuron morphology in Parkinson's disease and modulates striatal synaptic plasticity in animal models of parkinsonism. We demonstrate that long-term nigrostriatal dopamine depletion in the rat induces evolving changes in the phosphorylation of striatal proteins critical for synaptic plasticity. Dopamine depletion increased the phosphorylation of the alpha isoform of calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKIIalpha) at Thr286, a site associated with enhanced autonomous kinase activity, but did not alter total levels of CaMKIIalpha or other synaptic proteins. Dopamine depletion decreased CaMKIIalpha levels in postsynaptic density-enriched fractions without significant changes in other proteins. The activity of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1), a postsynaptic phosphatase that dephosphorylates CaMKII, is regulated by DARPP-32 (dopamine- and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein of 32 kDa). Dopamine depletion had no effect on DARPP-32 phosphorylation at Thr34, but increased DARPP-32 phosphorylation at Thr75. Levodopa administration reversed the increased phosphorylation of both CaMKIIalpha and DARPP-32. Normal ageing increased the levels of PP1(gamma1 isoform) but decreased levels of the PP1gamma1-targeting proteins spinophilin and neurabin. Elevated phosphorylations of CaMKIIalpha and DARPP-32 were maintained for up to 20 months after dopamine depletion. However, phosphorylation of the CaMKII-PP1 substrate, Ser831 in the glutamate receptor GluR1 subunit, was increased only after sustained (9-20 months) dopamine depletion. Interaction of ageing-related changes in PP1 with the dopamine depletion-induced changes in CaMKIIalpha may account for enhanced GluR1 phosphorylation only after long-term dopamine depletion. These evolving changes may impact striatal synaptic plasticity, Parkinson's disease progression and the changing efficacy and side-effects associated with dopamine replacement therapy.

Regulation of NMDAreceptor-mediated synaptic transmission onto accumbal medium spiny neurons (MSN) may constitute an important site in drug reward and reinforcement in mesolimbic structures. Previously, we reported that D(1)-like dopamine receptors activate a postsynaptic cAMP/PKA/DARPP-32 signaling cascade culminating in phosphorylation of SER897-NR1 subunits and a reduction in the sensitivity to ethanol of NMDA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission. Here, we use a detailed electrophysiological analysis of D(1)-like receptor regulation of the ethanol sensitivity of accumbal NMDA receptors (NMDARs) through recordings of quantal Sr(2+)-supported NMDA miniature synaptic currents (mEPSCs) in reduced Mg(2+) (0.6 mM) and report dual presynaptic and postsynaptic components of D(1)-like regulation of ethanol sensitivity of NMDARs. Ethanol inhibited NMDA mEPSC amplitude and frequency in a dose-dependent manner (25-75 mM), indicating inhibitory effects on presynaptic and postsynaptic components NMDA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission. The presynaptic inhibitory effect was corroborated by analysing the ratio of paired-pulse facilitation (PPF) of Ca(2+)-supported NMDA EPSCs. Activation of D(1) receptors with the agonist, SKF 38393 (25 microM), reversed ethanol suppression of NMDA mEPSC frequency and amplitude. Furthermore, the Mg(2+)-dependent decay off-rate of NMDA mEPSCs was substantially reduced by ethanol in a manner strongly reversed by the D(1) agonist. D(1) receptor-mediated attenuation of both the presynaptic and postsynaptic actions of ethanol was completely blocked by a D(1) selective antagonist (SCH 23390). These data suggest that D(1)-like receptors modulate both the presynaptic and postsynaptic effects of ethanol on NMDA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission in nucleus accumbens (NAc) and that these interactions may contribute to ethanol-induced neuroadaptation of the reward pathway.

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) regulate dopaminergic signaling in the striatum by modulating the release of neurotransmitters. We have recently reported that nicotine stimulates the release of dopamine via alpha4beta2(*) nAChRs and/or alpha7 nAChRs, leading to the regulation of DARPP-32 at Thr34, the site involved in regulation of protein phosphatase-1 (PP-1). In this study, we investigated the regulation of DARPP-32 phosphorylation at its other sites, Thr75 [cyclin-dependent kinase-5 (Cdk5) site], Ser97 (CK2 site), and Ser130 (CK1 site), that serve to modulate Thr34 phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. In neostriatal slices, nicotine (100 microM) increased phosphorylation of DARPP-32 at Ser97 and Ser130 at an early time point (30 s) and decreased phosphorylation of DARPP-32 at Thr75 at a late time point (3 min). The increase in Ser97 and Ser130 phosphorylation was mediated through the release of dopamine via activation of alpha4beta2(*) nAChRs and alpha7 nAChRs and the subsequent activation of dopamine D1 and D2 receptors. The decrease in Thr75 phosphorylation was mediated through the release of dopamine via activation of alpha4beta2(*) nAChRs and the subsequent activation of dopamine D1 receptors. These various actions of nicotine on modulatory sites of phosphorylation would be predicted to result in a synergistic increase in the state of phosphorylation of DARPP-32 at Thr34 and thus would contribute to increased dopamine D1 receptor/DARPP-32 Thr34/PP-1 signaling.

Spinophilin is a protein phosphatase-1 (PP-1)- and actin-binding protein that is enriched in dendritic spines. Phosphorylation of the actin-binding domain of rat spinophilin at one or more sites by protein kinase A (PKA) inhibits actin binding. Here, we investigated the regulation of mouse spinophilin that contains only a single PKA-site (Ser94) within its actin-binding domain. In vitro phosphorylation of Ser94 resulted in the dissociation of spinophilin from actin filaments. In mouse neostriatal slices, phospho-Ser94 (p-Ser94) was dephosphorylated mainly by PP-1 and also by PP-2A. Activation of dopamine D1 receptors in striatonigral medium spiny neurons, and of adenosine A 2A receptors in striatopallidal medium spiny neurons increased, whereas activation of dopamine D2 receptors in striatopallidal neurons decreased, spinophilin Ser94 phosphorylation. In neostriatal slices from DARPP-32 (dopamine- and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein of 32 kDa) knockout mice, the effects of D1, D2 and A 2A receptors were largely attenuated. Activation of NMDA receptors decreased Ser94 phosphorylation in a PP-2A-dependent, but DARPP-32-independent, manner. These results suggest that PKA-dependent phosphorylation of spinophilin at Ser94 in both striatonigral and striatopallidal neurons requires synergistic contributions from the PKA and DARPP-32/PP-1 pathways. In addition, PP-2A plays a role in Ser94 dephosphorylation in response to activation of both D2 and NMDA receptors.

The reinforcing effect of cocaine is associated with increases in dopamine in the striatum. The phosphoprotein DARPP-32 (dopamine- and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein) has been shown to mediate the intracellular events after activation of dopamine receptors. DARPP-32 is phosphorylated at multiple sites by different protein kinases, but little is known about the functional role of these different sites. Cocaine self-administration and striatal levels of dopamine after acute "binge" cocaine administration were measured in separate lines of mice with alanine mutations introduced into DARPP-32 at either Thr34 (protein kinase A site, Thr34A), Thr75, (cyclin-dependent kinase 5 site, Thr75A), Ser97 (kinase CK2 site, Ser97A), or Ser130 (kinase CK1 site, Ser130A). Acquisition of stable cocaine self-administration required significantly more time in Thr34A-/- mice. Both Thr34A- and Ser130A-DARPP-32 mutant mice self-administered more cocaine than their respective wild-type controls. Also, cocaine-induced increases of dopamine in dorsal striatum were attenuated in the Thr34A- and Ser130A-DARPP-32 phosphomutant mice compared with wild-type mice. Notably, levels of P-Thr34- and P-Ser130-DARPP-32 were reduced after self-administration of cocaine in wild-type mice. Thus, phosphorylation states of Thr34- and Ser130-DARPP-32 play important roles in modulating the reinforcing effects of cocaine.
