The role of mitochondrial energy metabolism in glutamate mediated neurotoxicity was studied in rat neurones in primary culture. A brief (15 min) exposure of the neurones to glutamate caused a dose-dependent (0.01-1 mM) increase in cyclic GMP levels together with delayed (24 h) neurotoxicity and ATP depletion. These effects were prevented by either the nitric oxide (.NO) synthase (NOS) inhibitor Nomega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (NAME; 1 mM) or by the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate-subtype receptor antagonist D-(-)-2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoate (APV; 0.1 mM). Glutamate exposure (0.1 mM and 1 mM) followed by 24 h of incubation caused the inhibition of succinate-cytochrome c reductase (20-25%) and cytochrome c oxidase (31%) activities in the surviving neurones, without affecting NADH-coenzyme-Q1 reductase activity. The rate of oxygen consumption was impaired in neurones exposed to 1 mM glutamate, either with glucose (by 26%) or succinate (by 39%) as substrates. These effects on the mitochondrial respiratory chain and neuronal respiration, together with the observed glutathione depletion (20%) by glutamate exposure were completely prevented by NAME or APV. Our results suggest that mitochondrial dysfunction and impairment of antioxidant status may account for glutamate-mediated neurotoxicity via a mechanism involving .NO biosynthesis.
