Abstract:
:Kainate inhibits the exchange of D-aspartate into guinea-pig cerebrocortical synaptosomes. Kainate inhibits the Ca2+-independent efflux of endogenous glutamate in the presence of a trapping system for the released amino acid but potentiates a Ca2+-independent net efflux of endogenous and labelled glutamate and aspartate in the absence of the trap. Dihydrokainate has a similar effect. No discrepancy is seen between the release of endogenous and exogenously accumulated amino acid. These results are consistent with the presence of a slow leak of glutamate or aspartate from the cytoplasm independent of the kainate-sensitive Na+-cotransport pathway. In the presence of the trap, glutamate effluxes by both pathways, whereas in the absence of the trap, the Na+-cotransport pathway opposes the leak. Neither in the presence or absence of the glutamate trap does kainate induce, inhibit, or otherwise affect the Ca2+-dependent release of endogenous glutamate. The results enable many of the apparent complexities in the presynaptic actions of kainate to be resolved.
