Our aim was to determine how the cholinergic environment
influences, in vivo, the membrane abundance and the
intracellular trafficking of the muscarinic receptor m4 (m4R).
Immunohistochemistry at light and electron microscopic level was used
to detect the subcellular localization of m4R in several populations of
striatal cholinoceptive neurons, including cholinergic neurons and
medium spiny neurons.
(1) In control rats, in cholinergic neurons, m4R is mostly restricted
to intracytoplasmic sites involved in its synthesis, especially
endoplasmic reticulum. In contrast, m4R is preferentially located at
the plasma membrane in cell bodies and dendritic shafts and spines of
medium spiny neurons. The density of m4R was greater at the membrane of
perikarya in patches (striatal areas with low acetylcholine activity)
than in matrix (striatal areas with high acetylcholine activity). (2)
Stimulation of muscarinic receptor with oxotremorine provokes
translocation of m4R from the membrane to endosomes in perikarya and
dendrites of medium spiny neurons but has no influence on the
localization of m4R in the cytoplasm of cholinergic cell bodies.
Our results suggest that the intraneuronal trafficking and the
abundance of membrane-bound m4R in vivo is under
regulation of the cholinergic environment. The m4R subcellular
compartmentalization depends on the phenotype of the cholinoceptive
neuron and on its neurochemical environment. Such regulation, by
modulating availability of receptor for endogenous and exogenous
ligands, may play key roles in the response of target neurons.
