The involvement of adenosine on the development of time-dependent
reversal of long-term potentiation (LTP) by low-frequency stimulation
(LFS) was investigated at Schaffer collateral-CA1 synapses of rat
hippocampal slices. A train of LFS (2 Hz, 10 min, 1200 pulses) had no
long-term effects on synaptic transmission but produced lasting
depression of previously potentiated responses. This reversal of LTP
(depotentiation) was observed when the stimulus was delivered 3 min
after induction of LTP. However, application at 10 min
after induction had no detectable effect on potentiation. This
time-dependent reversal of LTP by LFS appeared to be mediated by
extracellular adenosine, because it was mimicked by bath-applied adenosine and was specifically inhibited by the selective
A1 adenosine receptor antagonist
8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (100 nM). The effect of adenosine could be mimicked by
5-HT1A receptor agonist buspirone, but the LFS-induced
depotentiation could not be antagonized by 5-HT1A receptor
antagonist NAN-190. The source of extracellular adenosine in response
to LFS appeared to be attributable to the efflux of cAMP. In addition,
this LFS-induced depotentiation was blocked by bath application of
adenylyl cyclase activator forskolin or injection of a cAMP analog
Sp-adenosine cAMP (10 mM) into postsynaptic neurons.
Moreover, the selective protein phosphatase 1 and 2A inhibitors okadaic
acid and calyculin A prevented the LFS-induced depotentiation. These
results thus suggest that increasing extracellular adenosine appears to
underlie the LFS-induced depotentiation via acting on the
A1 receptor subtype to interrupt the cAMP-dependent biochemical processes leading to the LTP expression.
