Abstract:
:The decrease of pyruvate and ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex activities is the main cause of energy and acetyl-CoA deficits in thiamine deficiency-evoked cholinergic encephalopathies. However, disturbances in pathways of acetyl-CoA metabolism leading to appearance of cholinergic deficits remain unknown. Therefore, the aim of this work was to investigate alterations in concentration and distribution of acetyl-CoA and in acetylcholine metabolism in brain nerve terminals, caused by thiamine deficits. They were induced by the pyrithiamine, a potent inhibitor of thiamine pyrophosphokinase. The thiamine deficit reduced metabolic fluxes through pyruvate and ketoglutarate dehydrogenase steps, yielding deficits of acetyl-CoA in mitochondrial and cytoplasmic compartments of K-depolarized nerve terminals. It also inhibited indirect transport of acetyl-CoA though ATP-citrate lyase pathway being without effect on its direct Ca-dependent transport to synaptoplasm. Resulting suppression of synaptoplasmic acetyl-CoA correlated with inhibition of quantal acetylcholine release (r = 0.91, p = 0.012). On the other hand, thiamine deficiency activated non-quantal acetylcholine release that was independent of shifts in intraterminal distribution of acetyl-CoA. Choline acetyltransferase activity was not changed by these conditions. These data indicate that divergent alterations in the release of non-quantal and quantal acetylcholine pools from thiamine deficient nerve terminals could be caused by the inhibition of acetyl-CoA and citrate synthesis in their mitochondria. They in turn, caused inhibition of acetyl-CoA transport to the synaptoplasmic compartment through ATP-citrate lyase pathway yielding deficits of cholinergic functions.
