摘要
THE effects of the ionotropic glutamate receptor (iGluR) selective agonist N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) on amyloid precursor protein (APP) levels were investigated in primary cultures of rat cerebellar granule cells. Both immunocytochemistry and immunoblotting techniques showed increased APP levels 4 h after a 15 min pulse with NMDA. This effect was completely prevented by incubating the neurones in the presence of the selective metabotropic GluR (mGluR) agonist 1S,3R-ACPD. This phenomenon was related, in terms of doses and time, with the observed 1S,3R-ACPD-mediated protection on NMDA-induced granule cell death. Our findings indicate that APP metabolism is differentially regulated by the stimulation of various GluR subtypes. The GluR-mediated changes in APP content might participate in the control of neuronal viability.
