alpha 4 beta 2 subunit combination specific pharmacology of neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells.

Abstract:

:Pharmacological characteristics of native neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor-mediated ion currents in mouse N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells have been investigated by superfusion of voltage clamped cells with known concentrations of the agonists acetylcholine, nicotine and cytisine, and the antagonists alpha-bungarotoxin and neuronal bungarotoxin. The sensitivity of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor for agonists followed the agonist potency rank-order: nicotine approximately acetylcholine > cytisine. The EC50 values of acetylcholine and nicotine are 78 microM and 76 microM, respectively. Equal concentrations of acetylcholine and nicotine induce inward currents with approximately the same peak amplitude whereas cytisine induces much smaller inward currents. Acetylcholine-induced currents are unaffected by high concentrations of alpha-bungarotoxin. Conversely, at 10 and 90 nM neuronal bungarotoxin reduces the amplitude of the 1 mM acetylcholine-induced inward current to 47% and 11% of control values, respectively. Both the agonist potency rank-order and the differential sensitivity to snake toxins of nicotinic receptors in N1E-115 cells are consistent with the known pharmacological profile of alpha 4 beta 2 nicotinic receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes and distinct from those of all other nicotinic acetylcholine receptors of known functional subunit compositions. All data indicate that the native nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in N1E-115 cells is an assembly of alpha 4 and beta 2 subunits, the putative major subtype of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in the brain.
