The effects of the selective metabotropic glutamate receptor agonist 1-aminocyclopentane-trans-1,3-dicarboxylate (t-ACPD) on forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP formation in guinea-pig cerebral cortex slices were determined. t-ACPD inhibited the accumulation of [3H]cyclic AMP by approximately 80%, with an IC50 value of 35 +/- 4 microM. The effect was reversible and stereoselective, with the 1S,3R isomer being approximately 400-fold more potent than the 1R,3S isomer. L-Glutamate (over a restricted concentration range) also partially inhibited the response to forskolin, but quisqualate, alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionate (AMPA), and N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) were ineffective. The effect of t-ACPD was not blocked by antagonists of the phospholipase C-linked metabotropic glutamate receptor, the AMPA ionotropic glutamate receptor, or the NMDA receptor. In summary, our results indicate the presence of a glutamate receptor in guinea-pig brain that is activated selectively by t-ACPD and that is negatively linked to adenylyl cyclase.

We have reported previously that a selective metabotropic glutamate receptor agonist, (1S,3R)-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (1S,3R-ACPD), caused two primary postsynaptic membrane changes, namely, a slow membrane depolarization, and burst firing in rat dorsolateral septal nucleus neurons. In addition, (1S,3R)-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid also potentiates a slow after depolarization in rat dorsolateral septal nucleus neurons. We now report that, among all the postsynaptic membrane changes induced by (1S,3R)-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid, only the burst firing was selectively blocked by pertussis toxin pretreatment. Thus, aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid induced burst firing was mediated by a metabotropic receptor coupled to a pertussis toxin-sensitive GTP-binding protein, while the other induced cellular responses may be mediated by metabotropic glutamate receptors insensitive to pertussis toxin. We further characterized this receptor pharmacologically. This metabotropic receptor is activated by several metabotropic glutamate receptor agonists, but is insensitive to L-glutamate or L-aspartate. On the basis of its agonist activity profile, particularly the ineffectiveness of glutamate as an agonist, we have tentatively assigned the name aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid metabotropic receptor, to this native, pertussis toxin-sensitive metabotropic receptor in the dorsolateral septal nucleus. Furthermore, this receptor is coupled to protein kinase C, probably via a phospholipase C independent pathway.

The effect of ionotropic excitatory amino acids and potassium on the formation of inositol phosphates elicited by the metabotropic glutamate receptor agonist (+/-)-1-aminocyclopentane-trans-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (trans-ACPD) was studied in mouse cerebellar granule cells. In Mg(2+)-containing buffers, NMDA (50-100 microM), alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionate (AMPA; 10-1,000 microM), and high potassium (10-30 mM) enhanced synergistically the response to a maximally effective concentration of 500 microM trans-ACPD. Potentiation of the trans-ACPD response was blocked by higher concentrations of NMDA (> 500 microM) and potassium (> 35 mM) but not by AMPA (up to 1 mM). The potentiation by NMDA of the trans-ACPD-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis was blocked by D,L-2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoic acid (APV), a competitive NMDA-receptor antagonist. Under Mg(2+)-free conditions, the accumulation of inositol phosphates in the presence of trans-ACPD alone was equal to that attained by trans-ACPD in Mg(2+)-containing buffers when costimulated with maximally enhancing concentrations of NMDA (50 microM). trans-ACPD potentiated synergistically the NMDA-evoked increases in cytosolic free-Ca2+ levels in Mg(2+)-containing but not in Mg(2+)-free solutions, and moreover did not enhance the AMPA-evoked increases in cytosolic free-Ca2+ levels. The calcium ionophore A23187 caused a dose-dependent increase in inositol phosphate accumulation but did not enhance the response stimulated by trans-ACPD alone. These results demonstrate the existence of cross talk between metabotropic and ionotropic glutamate receptors in cerebellar granule cells. The exact mechanism remains unclear but appears to involve interplay of G protein-coupled phospholipase C activation and regulated elevation of cytosolic free-Ca2+ levels. This study may provide a framework for future investigations at the cellular and molecular level that clarify the functional relevance and molecular mechanisms that are described.

Different neurotransmitter receptor agonists [carbachol, serotonin, noradrenaline, histamine, endothelin-1, and trans-(1S,3R)-aminocyclopentyl-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (trans-ACPD)], known as stimuli of phospholipase C in brain tissue, were tested for phospholipase D stimulation in [32P]Pi-prelabeled rat brain cortical and hippocampal slices. The accumulation of [32P]phosphatidylethanol was measured as an index of phospholipase D-catalyzed transphosphatidylation in the presence of ethanol. Among the six neurotransmitter receptor agonists tested, only noradrenaline, histamine, endothelin-1, and trans-ACPD stimulated phospholipase D in hippocampus and cortex, an effect that was strictly dependent of the presence of millimolar extracellular calcium concentrations. The effect of histamine (EC50 18 microM) was inhibited by the H1 receptor antagonist mepyramine with a Ki constant of 0.7 nM and was resistant to H2 and H3 receptor antagonists (ranitidine and tioperamide, respectively). Endothelin-1-stimulated phospholipase D (EC50 44 nM) was not blocked by BQ-123, a specific antagonist of the ETA receptor. Endothelin-3 and the specific ETB receptor agonist safarotoxin 6c were also able to stimulate phospholipase D with efficacies similar to that of endothelin-1, and EC50 values of 16 and 3 nM, respectively. These results show that histamine and endothelin-1 stimulate phospholipase D in rat brain through H1 and ETB receptors, respectively.

In the fluid percussion model of traumatic brain injury (TBI), we examined muscarinic and metabotropic glutamate receptor-stimulated polyphosphoinositide (PPI) turnover in rat hippocampus. Moderate injury was obtained by displacement and deformation of the brain within the closed cranial cavity using a fluid percussion device. Carbachol and (+/-)-1-Aminocyclopentane-trans-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (trans-ACPD)-stimulated PPI hydrolysis was assayed in hippocampus from injured and sham-injured controls at both 1 hour and 15 days following injury. At 1 hour after TBI, the response to carbachol was enhanced in injured rats by up to 200% but the response to trans-ACPD was diminished by as much as 28%. By contrast, at 15 days after TBI, the response to carbachol was enhanced by 25% and the response to trans-ACPD was enhanced by 73%. The ionotropic glutamate agonists N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), and alpha-amino-3 hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionate (AMPA), did not increase PPI hydrolysis in either sham or injured rats and injury did not alter basal hydrolysis. Thus, hippocampal muscarinic and metabotropic receptors linked to phospholipase C are differentially altered by TBI.

The contribution of ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors to inositol polyphosphate accumulation in carp retinal slices was investigated using myo-[2-3H]inositol prelabelling. In the presence of the glutamate agonists quisqualate, (RS)-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA) and trans-(+/-)-1-amino-1,3-cyclopentane-dicarboxylic acid (t-ACPD), formation of [3H]inositol phosphate was significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner, with EC50 values of 350 nM, 1.5 microM and 10 microM respectively. The complete AMPA-induced response and a large component of the quisqualate-induced response were inhibited in a competitive manner when the ionotropic antagonist 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxalin- 2,3-dione (CNQX) was present. Furthermore, the remaining level of quisqualate-induced [3H]inositol phosphate formation closely matched that produced by ACPD alone, and coincubation of AMPA and ACPD showed additive effects, suggesting that the quisqualate-induced response resulted from coactivation of metabotropic and ionotropic glutamate receptors. The ionotropic component was partially reduced in the presence of cobalt, suggesting indirect effects resulting from synaptic interactions. We could exclude indirect effects through depolarization-induced release of other neurotransmitters. Only serotonin (EC50 1 microM) and carbachol (at a concentration of 1 mM) stimulated [3H]inositol phosphate formation, but their antagonists did not affect the quisqualate response and coactivation with quisqualate and serotonin or carbachol resulted in additive effects. The ionotropic component was completely suppressed when Ca2+ was omitted from the medium and cobalt was present. This makes it likely that the ionotropic component resulted from Ca2+ entry through AMPA-gated channels and subsequent Ca(2+)-dependent activation of phospholipase C.

Guanosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate (p[NH]ppG)-stimulated phospholipase C (PLC) activity in bovine brain coated vesicles is inhibited by glutamate agonists. In the present study we show that quisqualic acid (QA), (+/-)-trans-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylate (trans-ACPD), glutamic acid and ibotenic acid inhibited p[NH]ppG-stimulated PLC by 44, 41, 36 and 25% respectively. Carbachol also produced an inhibition of p[NH]ppG-stimulated PLC by 45%. The inhibition caused by trans-ACPD and QA was dose-dependent. DL-2-Amino-3-phosphonopropionic acid and (RS)-alpha-methyl-4-carboxyphenylglycine, specific antagonists of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), abolished these inhibitory effects. trans-ACPD inhibition of p[NH]ppG-stimulated PLC was also observed in the presence of ionotropic glutamate receptor antagonists. When carbachol and QA or trans-ACPD were combined, additive inhibitory effects were observed. Preincubation of bovine brain coated vesicles with pertussis toxin abolished the inhibitory effects of mGluR analogues and carbachol on p[NH]ppG-stimulated PLC activity. The presence of Gs alpha and pertussis toxin substrates, Gi alpha and Go alpha subunits as well as PLC beta 1 in bovine brain coated vesicles has been confirmed by immunoblot. These results support the coupling of mGluRs to a PLC in an inhibitory manner through a pertussis toxin-sensitive G-protein in bovine brain coated vesicles.

1. The effect of NMDA-receptor stimulation on phosphoinositide signalling in response to the metabotropic glutamate receptor agonist 1-aminocyclopentane-1S,3R-dicarboxylic acid (1S,3R-ACPD) has been examined in neonatal rat cerebral cortex slices. 2. Total [3H]-inositol phosphate ([3H]-InsPx) accumulation, in the presence of 5 mM LiCl, in [3H]-inositol pre-labelled slices was concentration-dependently increased by 1S,3R-ACPD (EC50 16.6 microM) and, at a maximally effective concentration, 1S,3R-ACPD (300 microM) increased [3H]-InsPx accumulation by 12.8 fold over basal values. 3. [3H]-InsPx accumulation stimulated by 1S,1R-ACPD was enhanced by low concentrations of NMDA (3-30 microM), but not by higher concentrations (> 30 microM). [3H]-InsPx accumulations stimulated by 1S,3R-ACPD in the absence or presence of 10 microM NMDA were linear with time, at least over the 15 min period examined; however, in the presence of 100 microM NMDA the initial enhancement of 1S,3R-ACPD-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis progressively decreased with time. 4. In the presence of a maximal enhancing concentration of NMDA (10 microM), the response to 1S,3R-ACPD (300 microM) was increased 1.9 fold and the EC50 for agonist-stimulated [3H]-InsPx accumulation decreased about 4 fold. The enhanced response to the metabotropic agonist was concentration-dependently inhibited by competitive and uncompetitive antagonists of NMDA-receptor activation. 5. 1S,3R-ACPD also stimulated inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) mass accumulation with an initial peak response (5-6 fold over basal) at 15 s decaying to a smaller (2 fold), but persistent elevated accumulation (1-10 min). 6. Co-addition of 10 or 100 MicroM NMDA enhanced the initial peak Ins(1,4,5)P3 response to 1S,3RACPD.However, the enhancing effect was only maintained over 10 min in the presence of 1O Micro MNMDA, whilst in contrast, 100 MicroM NMDA ceased to cause a significant enhancement of the metabotropic response by 5 min and completely suppressed lS,3R-ACPD-stimulated Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulation at 10 min.7. Both basal and 1S,3R-ACPD-stimulated Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulations were reduced when slices were incubated in nominally Ca2"-free medium. Under these conditions only a concentration-dependent enhancement of the response was observed (EC50 for NMDA facilitation of lS,3R-ACPD-stimulated Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulation of 32 MicroM).8. These experiments have revealed that at low concentrations, NMDA can dramatically potentiate1S,3R-ACPD-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis, probably by a Ca2"-dependent facilitation of agonist-stimulated phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C activity. Higher concentrations of NMDA result in time-dependent inhibition of the metabotropic agonist-stimulated response. We believe the former effect could be fundamental in glutamate receptor 'cross-talk', whereas the latter may reflect a Ca2+-dependent neurotoxic effect of NMDA on the neonatal cerebral cortex slices.

4-Aminopyridine evokes repetitive firing of synaptosomes and exocytosis of glutamate by inhibiting a dendrotoxin-sensitive K+ channel responsible for stabilizing the membrane potential. We have shown previously that activation of protein kinase C (PKC) by high concentrations of phorbol ester (4 beta-phorbol dibutyrate) can increase release by inhibiting a dendrotoxin-insensitive ion channel, whereas the metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) agonist (1S,3R)-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylate [(1S,3R)-ACPD] mimics the action of 4 beta-phorbol dibutyrate, but only in the presence of 2 microM arachidonic acid (AA). In this article, we investigate the role of AA. AA plus (1S,3R)-ACPD is without effect on KCl-induced glutamate exocytosis, indicating that the regulatory pathway acts upstream of the release-coupled Ca2+ channel or Ca(2+)-secretion coupling. Diacylglycerol concentrations are greatly enhanced by (1S,3R)-ACPD alone, independently of AA, indicating that AA acts downstream of phospholipase C. Myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS) is the major presynaptic substrate for PKC. mGluR activation by (1S,3R)-ACPD enhances phosphorylation of MARCKS, but only in the presence of AA. These results strongly suggest that AA acts on presynaptic PKC synergistically with diacylglycerol generated by the phospholipase-coupled mGluR, consistent with the known behaviour of certain purified PKC isoforms. The magnitude of the effects observed in a population of rat cerebrocortical synaptosomes suggests that this is a major mechanism regulating the release of the brain's dominant excitatory neurotransmitter and supports the concept that AA, or a related compound with a similar locus of action, may in certain circumstances play a role in synaptic plasticity.

A method utilizing exogenously added [3H]PtdIns incubated with membranes prepared from postmoretem human brain has been shown to provide a means of measuring agonist-induced, guanosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate) (GTP[S])-dependent hydrolysis of [3H]PtdIns, thus allowing investigations of the activity of the phosphoinositide second-messenger system in accessible human brain tissue. Agonists inducing [3H]PtdIns hydrolysis include carbachol, trans-1-aminocyclopentyl-1,3-dicarboxylate (ACPD; a glutamatergic metabotropic receptor agonist), serotonin and ATP, with the latter two agonists producing the largest responses. In addition to ATP, [3H]PtdIns hydrolysis was induced by ADP and by 2-methylthio-ATP, indicating that P2-purinergic receptors mediate this process. Subtype-selective antibodies we used to identify Gq/11 and phospholipase C-beta as the G-protein and phospholipase C subtypes that mediated GTP[S]-induced and agonist-induced [3H]PtdIns hydrolysis. These results demonstrate that this method reveals that agonist-induced, GTP[S]-dependent [3H]PtdIns hydrolysis is retained in postmortem human brain membranes with properties similar to rat brain. This method should allow studies of the modulation of phosphoinositide hydrolysis in human brain and investigations of potential alterations in postmortem brain from subjects with neurological and psychiatric diseases.
