Abstract:
:This study examines the effects of high K+ concentration on the growth and development of mesencephalic cells and their glutamate vulnerability. Mesencephalic cell cultures obtained from Wistar rat embryos on the 14th gestational day were maintained for 14 days in medium with either normal (4.2 mM) or elevated (24.2 mM) potassium concentration. There was no significant difference due to various K+ concentration in cell growth and survival up to day in vitro (DIV) 13-14. In order to test the glutamate (Glu) vulnerability, cultures were treated with 100 mu M Glu for 15 min in salt solution on the DIV 3,6,8 and 13. Glu-induced neuronal damage was estimated 24 h later by measuring the neuron-specific enolase (NSE) content in the culture medium and by counting the number of tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactive (TH-IR) neurons. Glu had no damaging effect on the cells on DIV 3, but became pronounced beyond DIV 6. Elevated potassium concentration 24.2 mM) in the culture medium during development significantly increased neuronal vulnerability to Glu treatment, indicated by a higher increase of NSE content in the medium and by a more pronounced Glu-induced decrease of the number of TH-IR cells. The Glu-induced decrease of the number of TH-IR cells and of NSE-IR cells let us conclude that dopaminergic neurons are more vulnerable to glutamate than other neurons from mesencephalic culture.
