Abstract
Muscarinic and metabotropic glutamate receptor agonists increase the excitability of hippocampal and other cortical neurons by suppressing the Ca2+-activated K+current, IAHP, which underlies the slow afterhyperpolarization (AHP) and spike frequency adaptation. We have examined the mechanism of action of a muscarinic agonist (carbachol) and a metabotropic glutamate receptor agonist (1-Aminocyclopentane-trans-1,3-dicarboxylic acid; t-ACPD) on IAHP in hippocampal CA1 neurons in slices, by using highly specific protein kinase inhibitors. We found that inhibition of protein kinase A (PKA) with the adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) analogue Rp-adenosine-3',5'-cyclic phosphorothioate Rp-cAMPS, did not prevent the muscarinic and glutamatergic suppression of IAHP. In contrast, two specific peptide inhibitors of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM-K II), each partially blocked the effect of carbachol, but not the effect of t-ACPD on IAHP. We conclude that CaM-K II, but not PKA, is involved in mediating the muscarinic suppression of IAHP, although other pathways may also contribute. In contrast, neither CaM-K II nor PKA seems to mediate the metabotropic glutamate receptor action on IAHP.
