Changes in the Parameters of Quantal Acetylcholine Release after Activation of PAR1-Type Thrombin Receptors at the Mouse Neuromuscular Junctions

2018 · ARTICLE · en

In mature and newly formed neuromuscular synapses of mouse skeletal muscles, miniature endplate potentials (MEPPs) and multiquantal endplate potentials (EPPs) evoked by a single stimulation of the nerve were recorded using intracellular microelectrode technique. The mechanisms underlying the changes in spontaneous and evoked acetylcholine (ACh) release caused by the activation of PAR1-type muscle receptors induced by their peptide agonist TRAP6-NH2 were studied. It has been shown for the first time that, in either mature or newly formed motor synapses, the activation of PAR1 that lack presynaptic localization causes a sustained increase in the MEPP amplitude due to the increase in the ACh quantal size at the presynaptic level. It was found that phospholipase C (PLC) participates in the signaling mechanism triggered by the PAR1 activation. Exogenously applied brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mimics the effect of activation of PAR1 by TRAP6-NH2. Moreover, an increase in the MEPP amplitude caused by the peptide PAR1 agonist was fully prevented by blocking the BDNF receptors–tropomyosin receptor kinases B (TrkB). Thus, it has been shown for the first time that the increase in ACh quantal size due to the activation of PAR1 in motor synapses is mediated by a complex signaling cascade that starts at the postsynaptic level of the motor synapse and ends at the presynaptic level. It is expected that the activation of PAR1 at the muscle fiber membrane followed by the PLC upregulation results in the release of neurotrophin BDNF as a retrograde signal. Its effect on the presynaptic TrkB receptors triggers the cascade leading to an increase in the quantal size of ACh.

Mechanism of P2X7 receptor-dependent enhancement of neuromuscular transmission in pannexin 1 knockout mice

2018 · ARTICLE · pl

P2X7 receptors are present in presynaptic membranes of motor synapses, but their regulatory role in modulation of neurotransmitter release remains poorly understood. P2X7 receptors may interact with pannexin 1 channels to form a purinergic signaling unit. The potential mechanism of P2X7 receptor-dependent modulation of acetylcholine (ACh) release was investigated by recording miniature endplate potentials (MEPPs) and evoked endplate potentials (EPPs) in neuromuscular junctions of wild-type (WT) and pannexin 1 knockout (Panx1-/-) mice. Modulation of P2X7 receptors with the selective inhibitor A740003 or the selective agonist BzATP did not alter the parameters of either spontaneous or evoked ACh release in WT mice. In Panx1-/- mice, BzATP-induced activation of P2X7 receptors resulted in a uniformly increased quantal content of EPPs during a short stimulation train. This effect was accompanied by an increase in the size of the readily releasable pool, while the release probability did not change. Inhibition of calmodulin by W-7 or of calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII) by KN-93 completely prevented the potentiating effect of BzATP on the EPP quantal content. The blockade of L-type calcium channels also prevented BzATP action on evoked synaptic activity. Thus, the activation of presynaptic P2X7 receptors in mice lacking pannexin 1 resulted in enhanced evoked ACh release. Such enhanced release was provoked by triggering the calmodulin- and CaMKII-dependent signaling pathway, followed by activation of presynaptic L-type calcium channels. We suggest that in WT mice, this pathway is downregulated due to pannexin 1-dependent tonic activation of inhibitory presynaptic purinergic receptors, which overcomes P2X7-mediated effects.

Ryanodine- and CaMKII-dependent release of endogenous CGRP induces an increase in acetylcholine quantal size in neuromuscular junctions of mice

2018 · ARTICLE · en

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to identify the mechanism responsible for an increase in miniature endplate potentials (MEPPs) amplitude, induced by ryanodine as an agonist of ryanodine receptors in mouse motor nerve terminals. METHODS: Using intracellular microelectrode recordings of MEPPs and evoked endplate potentials (EPPs), the changes in spontaneous and evoked acetylcholine release in motor synapses of mouse diaphragm neuromuscular preparations were studied. RESULTS: Ryanodine (0.1 μM) increased both the amplitudes of MEPPs and EPPs to a similar extent (up to 130% compared to control). The ryanodine effect was prevented by blockage of receptors of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) by a truncated peptide CGRP8-37 . Endogenous CGRP is stored in large dense-core vesicles in motor nerve terminals and may be released as a co-transmitter. The ryanodine-induced increase in MEPPs amplitude may be fully prevented by inhibition of vesicular acetylcholine transporter by vesamicol or by blocking the activity of protein kinase A with H-89, suggesting that endogenous CGRP is released in response to the activation of ryanodine receptors. Activation of CGRP receptors can, in turn, upregulate the loading of acetylcholine into synaptic vesicles, which will increase the quantal size. This new feature of endogenous CGRP activity looks similar to recently described action of exogenous CGRP in motor synapses of mice. The ryanodine effect was prevented by inhibitors of Ca/Calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII) KN-62 or KN-93. Inhibition of CaMKII did not prevent the increase in MEPPs amplitude, which was caused by exogenous CGRP. CONCLUSIONS: We propose that the activity of presynaptic CaMKII is necessary for the ryanodine-stimulated release of endogenous CGRP from motor nerve terminals, but CaMKII does not participate in signaling downstream the activation of CGRP-receptors followed by quantal size increase.
