Abstract:
:The effect of bilateral colchicine lesions of the nucleus basalis magnocellularis (NBM) on agonist-stimulated phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis was examined in cortical slices 1, 3, or 14 months after surgery. Colchicine lesions resulted in a loss of acetylcholinesterase staining in the cortex which recovered to control levels by 14 months. Choline acetyltransferase activity in the cortex was decreased by 43% one month after lesioning, but returned to control levels by 3 months. In vitro stimulation with carbachol produced a concentration-dependent increase in PI hydrolysis, which was enhanced 3 and 14 months after NBM lesions. Norepinephrine and quisqualate-stimulated PI hydrolysis was also enhanced 14 months after NBM lesions. These results suggest a slow up-regulation of postsynaptic receptor function following presynaptic loss of transmitter.
