Abstract：
:The release of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and acetylcholine (ACh) from the strips of guinea-pig ileum was investigated in the presence of neurotensin. Neurotensin evoked the release of [3H]-GABA from the strips preloaded with [3H]-GABA, and the evoked release was Ca2+-dependent and tetrodotoxin-sensitive. Hexamethonium, scopolamine, [D-Pro2,D-Trp7,9] substance P and pretreatment with substance P did not alter the neurotensin-evoked release of [3H]-GABA. Pretreatment with neurotensin inhibited the release of [3H]-GABA evoked by neurotensin but not by high K+, thereby indicating that neurotensin induced a specific desensitization of its own receptor. These observations indicate that neurotensin may stimulate the GABAergic neurone through its own receptor. Neurotensin evoked the release of [3H]-ACh from strips preloaded with [3H]-choline and this release was Ca2+-dependent and tetrodotoxin-sensitive. The evoked release of [3H]-ACh was not affected by hexamethonium, scopolamine and [D-Pro2,D-Trp7,9] substance P. Bicuculline partly inhibited the neurotensin-evoked release of [3H]-ACh; thus neurotensin seems to induce a release of ACh partly through the release of endogenous GABA. All this evidence indicates that neurotensin induces release of GABA as well as ACh from the myenteric neurones of the guinea-pig ileum.
