Glutamate-activated chloride channels: Unique fipronil targets present in insects but not in mammals.

Abstract:

:Selectivity to insects over mammals is one of the important characteristics for a chemical to become a useful insecticide. Fipronil was found to block cockroach GABA receptors more potently than rat GABA(A) receptors. Furthermore, glutamate-activated chloride channels (GluCls), which are present in cockroaches but not in mammals, were very sensitive to the blocking action of fipronil. The IC(50)s of fipronil block were 30 nM in cockroach GABA receptors and 1600 nM in rat GABA(A) receptors. Moreover, GluCls of cockroach neurons had low IC(50)s for fipronil. Two types of glutamate-induced chloride current were obswerved: desensitizing and non-desensitizing, with fipronil IC(50)s of 800 and 10 nM, respectively. We have developed methods to separately record these two types of GluCls. The non-desensitizing and desensitizing currents were selectively inhibited by trypsin and polyvinylpyrrolidone, respectively. In conclusion, in addition to GABA receptors, GluCls play a crucial role in selectivity of fipronil to insects over mammals. GluCls form the basis for development of selective and safe insecticides.
