Glycinergic nerve endings in hippocampus and spinal cord release glycine by different mechanisms in response to identical depolarizing stimuli

Abstract: Studies on hippocampal glycine release are extremely rare. We here investigated release from mouse hippocampus glycinergic terminals selectively pre‐labelled with [3H]glycine through transporters of the GLYT2 type. Purified synaptosomes were incubated with [3H]glycine in the presence of the GLYT1 blocker NFPS to abolish uptake (∼ 30%) through GLYT1. The non‐GLYT1‐mediated uptake was entirely sensitive to the GLYT2 blocker Org25543. Depolarization during superfusion with high‐K+ (15–50 mmol/L) provoked overflow… Show more

“…The mechanisms of expression, regulation and internalization of glycine transporters have not been fully elucidated yet, but the inhibition of GlyT1 by NFPS could be triggering a compensatory mechanism of exchange of GlyT1 to GlyT2 (Luccini et al, 2008;Jim enez et al, 2011). In accordance to this hypothesis, NFPS Fig.…”

“…Nevertheless, at some conditions, the glycine transporters (GlyT1 and GlyT2) show opposite actions (Luccini et al, 2008;Jim enez et al, 2011). For instance, the stimulation of purinergic receptors (PY2R) led to a functional inhibition of GlyT2 and stimulation of GlyT1 through the same signal transduction pathways, whereas lithium exposition inhibits GlyT1 and stimulate GlyT2 (Jim enez et al, 2011;P erez-Siles et al, 2011).…”

“…Evidence was provided for vesicular exocytotic release independent of external Ca 2þ but triggered by Ca 2þ ions mobilized from intraterminal stores (for a review, see Berridge, 1998). Internal Ca 2þ can be mobilized from different pools, depending on the stimulus applied to nerve endings and it can mediate transmitter release by different modes (Luccini et al, 2008;Romei et al, 2011). Cytosolic Na þ increases can lead to transmitter release by mobilizing internal Ca 2þ through mitochondrial Na þ /Ca 2þ exchangers (Rizzuto and Pozzan, 2006;Palty et al, 2012).…”

“…Being aware that several neurotransmitters that play important roles in cognitive functions could be affected either directly or indirectly by Aβ, we focused our attention on GLY. Indeed increasing evidence demonstrate that GLY is an important aminoacid at hippocampal level which has a dual role (a) acting as an inhibitory neurotransmitter when interacting with the strychnine-sensitive receptors and (b) playing a fundamental stimulatory role when co-activating excitatory N -Methyl- d -aspartic acid receptors together with glutamate (Johnson and Ascher, 1987; Hirai et al, 1996; Luccini et al, 2008; Kubota et al, 2010; Zappettini et al, 2011). The changes in the GLY release may therefore directly interfere with glutamate neurotransmission, which plays an important role in the processes of learning and memory in this brain area.…”

No data are available so far on the possible effects of Aβ on the cholinergic receptors which modulate GLY release at the hippocampal level.…”
