Ionotropic glutamate receptors mediate fast forms of excitatory synaptic transmission in mature neurons and may play critical roles in neuronal development. However, the developmental stage at which neuronal cells begin to express functional receptors and their roles in lineage progression remain unclear. In the present study, neural precursor cells were isolated from the cortical neuroepithelium of embryonic day 13 rats, and rapidly expanded in serum-free medium in response to basic fibroblast growth factor. RT-PCR revealed the presence of mRNAs encoding AMPA(A), AMPA(C), KA(1), KA(2), NMDA(1), and NMDA(2D) subunits after 3 days in culture. The functional expression of AMPA/kainate and NMDA receptors was investigated using Ca(2+) imaging and whole-cell patch-clamp recording techniques in cells pulse-labeled with bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) for 1-4 hr. The recorded cells were then double-immunostained for BrdU incorporation and neuron-specific beta-tubulin (TuJ1). The results show that AMPA/kainate and NMDA induced increases in cytosolic Ca(2+) and inward currents only in differentiating neurons. In contrast, proliferating (BrdU(+)TuJ1(-)) cells failed to respond to any ionotropic glutamate receptor agonists. Interestingly, Ca(2+) imaging revealed that a subpopulation of BrdU(+)TuJ1(+) cells also responded to AMPA, indicating the emergence of functional ionotropic AMPA/kainate receptors during terminal cell division and the earliest commitment to neuronal cell lineage. These in vitro results were supported by flow cytometric sorting of AMPA-responsive cells pulse-labeled with BrdU for 1 hr in vivo, which revealed that functional AMPA receptors appear in BrdU(+)TuJ1(+) cells under physiological conditions and may play a role in terminal cell division.
