Yamada K, Saltarelli MD, Coyle JT: Specificity of the activation of [3H] hemicholinium-3 binding by phospholipase A2. J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 1989 Jun;249(3):836-42. Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) treatment has been shown previously to stimulate the sodium-dependent high-affinity choline uptake system as assessed by both the specific binding of [3H] hemicholinium-3 ([ 3H] HCh-3) and the uptake of [3H] choline. In the present study, the specificity of PLA2-induced stimulation upon [3H] HCh-3 binding has been examined. PLA2, as well as phospholipase C (PLC), treatment of synaptic membranes produced a dose-dependent increase in the specific binding of [3H] HCh-3 whereas neither phospholipase B nor phospholipase D had any effect. PLC-induced stimulation of [3H] HCh-3 binding resulted from a significant decrease in the Kd without a change in the maximum binding of [3H] HCh-3 binding. PLC treatment of synaptosomes resulted in an inhibition of [3H] choline uptake accompanied by an inhibition of Na+, K+-adenosine triphosphatase activity. In contrast to the increase of [3H] HCh-3 binding, the specific binding of both [3H] desipramine and [3H] mazindol was decreased by PLA2 treatment. After PLA2 treatment, [3H] HCh-3 binding was increased about 2.5-fold over basal levels in different regions of the brain. Electrolytic lesions of the medial septal nucleus and kainic acid-induced lesions of the striatum resulted in a marked reduction of [3H] HCh-3 binding in the hippocampus and the striatum, respectively. Residual [3H] HCh-3 binding in the denervated hippocampus and lesioned striatum was increased by PLA2 treatment but remained lower than that in PLA2-treated controls. Finally, atropine-induced up-regulation of [3H] HCh-3 binding in vivo was not additive with PLA2-induced stimulation. These results support the hypothesis that PLA2 might be involved in the regulation of the sodium-dependent high-affinity choline uptake. |
