During the induction of long-term potentiation (LTP) in hippocampal slices adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is secreted into the synaptic cleft, and a 48 kDa/50 kDa protein duplex becomes phosphorylated by extracellular ATP. All the criteria required as evidence that these two proteins serve as principal substrates of ecto-protein kinase activity on the surface of hippocampal pyramidal neurons have been fulfilled. This phosphorylation activity was detected on the surface of pyramidal neurons assayed after synaptogenesis, but not in immature neurons nor in glial cells. Addition to the extracellular medium of a monoclonal antibody termed mAb 1.9, directed to the catalytic domain of protein kinase C (PKC), inhibited selectively this surface protein phosphorylation activity and blocked the stabilization of LTP induced by high frequency stimulation (HFS) in hippocampal slices. This antibody did not interfere with routine synaptic transmission nor prevent the initial enhancement of synaptic responses observed during the 1-5 min period immediately after the application of HFS (the induction phase of LTP). However, the initial increase in the slope of excitatory postsynaptic potentials, as well as the elevated amplitude of the population spike induced by HFS, both declined gradually and returned to prestimulus values within 30-40 min after HFS was applied in the presence of mAb 1.9. A control antibody that binds to PKC but does not inhibit its activity had no effect on LTP. The selective inhibitory effects observed with mAb 1.9 provide the first direct evidence of a causal role for ecto-PK in the maintenance of stable LTP, an event implicated in the process of learning and the formation of memory in the brain.
