pubmed:abstractText |
Neuronal cultures derived from developing rat cerebral cortex were used to investigate the influence of glutamate receptors on the neuronal production of transforming growth factor-beta2 (TGFbeta2), a multifunctional cytokine that modulates neuronal and glial growth. Long-term exposure (48 h) of cortical neurons to selective antagonists of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA)/kainate receptors markedly increased TGFbeta2 levels in the culture medium. Conversely, treatment with NMDA or kainate reduced TGFbeta2 to levels below those in untreated cultures. The effect of kainate did not require NMDA receptor activity. Neuronal depolarization with K+ also reduced TGFbeta2 levels by opening voltage-gated L-type Ca2+ channels. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR measurements of neuronal TGFbeta2 mRNA showed that NMDA or AMPA/kainate receptor stimulation reduced TGFbeta2 mRNA levels. These results demonstrate that tonic activation of glutamate-gated cation channels downregulates neuronal expression of the TGFbeta2 gene and provide evidence for a novel mechanism whereby excitatory amino acids could influence the development of glial and neuronal lineages.
