Neuropeptide Y (NPY) agonists inhibit glutamate release by a
presynaptic action at the CA3-CA1 synapse of rat hippocampus. We have
examined the relationship between [Capre]t
via presynaptic, voltage-dependent calcium channels (VDCCs), measured
optically by using the fluorescent calcium indicator fura-2, and
transmitter release, measured electrophysiologically. Activation
of presynaptic NPY Y2 receptors reduced
[Capre]t and thereby inhibited synaptic transmission. Multiple calcium channels are involved in synaptic transmission at this synapse. Activation of Y2 receptors
inhibits N-type, P/Q-type, and unidentified presynaptic VDCCs. The
inhibition of each of these calcium channel types contributes to the
reduction of [Capre]t by Y2
receptors. Activation of adenosine receptors fully occluded the
inhibition of presynaptic calcium influx by Y2 receptors
but not the inhibition by GABAB receptors, suggesting a
convergent action for Y2 and adenosine receptors, probably
by coupling to the same G-protein.
Key words:
hippocampus;
presynaptic calcium;
