Receptor desensitization and the transient nature of the secretory response of adrenal chromaffin cells.

Abstract:

:Transition of the cellular responsiveness to a cholinergic stimulation during a prolonged stimulation with acetylcholine (ACh) of adrenal chromaffin cells was studied by directly monitoring the secretory process in cell bed perfusion experiments. A pulsatile injection of hexamethonium during the prolonged stimulation caused an interruption of the response. Step-up of the ACh concentration in the declining phase of the primary response evoked an additional response. The magnitude of the response to the step-up was reduced by extracellular Ca2+ in a dose-dependent manner. However, neither the peak amplitude nor the declining rate of the primary response was affected by Ca2+ in such a direction. These results suggest that the transient nature of the ACh-evoked response is mainly attributable to the inactivation of transduction mechanisms between receptor stimulation and channel activation. Although Ca2+-facilitated desensitization of nicotinic receptors is in process during the stimulation, such a desensitization may account only insignificantly for the transient nature.
