GABAergic interneurons appear to play a fundamental role in the
functioning of the neostriatum by modulating the spiking of striatal
projection neurons with great efficacy. The powerful and strongly
divergent output of the GABAergic interneurons neurons suggests that
modulation of their activity may be particularly effective at
controlling the functioning of the entire neostriatal circuitry.
Acetylcholine is one of the main modulators of striatal functioning.
The effects of acetylcholine on fast-spiking (FS) GABAergic
interneurons were studied with whole-cell recording in an in
vitro slice preparation. Acetylcholine exerted two distinct effects on fast-spiking interneurons. Acetylcholine directly
depolarized FS interneurons by acting on nondesensitizing
soma-dendritic nicotinic receptors. In addition, acetylcholine
attenuated the GABAergic inhibition of projection neurons by
fast-spiking interneurons through activation of presynaptic muscarinic
receptors. It is suggested that the nicotinic excitation of FS
interneurons may play an important role in translating the effect of
the brief behaviorally contingent cessation of firing of the tonically
active cholinergic interneurons to the output neurons of the
neostriatum. In contrast, the muscarinic presynaptic inhibitory
mechanism may be engaged primarily during longer-lasting elevations of
extracellular acetylcholine levels.
Key words:
fast-spiking interneuron; neostriatum; GABA; acetylcholine; nicotinic receptor; muscarinic receptor; presynaptic
inhibition; cholinergic interneuron; tonically active neurons
