Effect of low Mg2+ and bicuculline on cell survival in hippocampal slice cultures.[Pubmed:20942591]
Int J Neurosci. 2010 Dec;120(12):752-9.
A reliable model system of epileptiform insult would facilitate investigation into the underlying biological mechanisms. Epileptiform insult was induced in hippocampal slice cultures by lowering extracellular Mg(2+), (+)-bicuculline, or (-)-Bicuculline methochloride, a stable salt form of bicuculline (both forms block GABA(A) receptors). Cell death was assessed by propidium iodide uptake. Low Mg(2+) or (+)-bicuculline did not produce cell death regardless of dose or incubation period. Exposure to 100 microM (-)-Bicuculline methochloride for 48 hr resulted in prominent CA1 cell death. These findings demonstrate that not all pro-epileptic drugs/ion changes used routinely for electrophysiological recording of seizure activity lead to cell death in hippocampal slice cultures and that treatment with bicuculline methochloride can be used as a reliable model for epileptiform insult.
Evidence for a non-GABAergic action of quaternary salts of bicuculline on dopaminergic neurones.[Pubmed:9517436]
Neuropharmacology. 1997 Nov-Dec;36(11-12):1653-7.
Intracellular recordings were made from neurones, presumed to be dopaminergic, in the rat midbrain slice preparation. Bicuculline methiodide (BMI) and methochloride (BMC) reversibly blocked the slow, apamin-sensitive component of the afterhyperpolarization in these cells. The IC50 for this effect was about 26 microM. In comparison, BMC antagonized the input resistance decrease evoked by muscimol (3 microM) with an IC50 of 7 microM. The base of bicuculline was less potent in blocking the slow afterhyperpolarization. SR95531 (2-[carboxy-3'-propyl]-3-amino-6-paramethoxy-phenyl-pyridaziniu m bromide), another competitive GABA(A) antagonist, and picrotoxin, a non-competitive GABA(A) antagonist, also blocked the action of muscimol (IC50s: 2 and 12 microM respectively), but had no effect on the afterhyperpolarization at a concentration of up to 100 microM. Moreover, 100 microM SR95531 did not affect the blockade of the afterhyperpolarization by BMC. This blockade persisted in the presence of tetrodotoxin and was apparently not due to a reduction of calcium entry, suggesting that it involved a direct action on the channels which mediate this afterhyperpolarization. These results strongly suggest that quaternary salts of bicuculline act on more than one target in the central nervous system. Thus, the involvement of GABA(A) receptors in a given effect cannot be proven solely on the basis of its blockade by these agents.
Quantitative evaluation of the potencies of GABA-receptor agonists and antagonists using the rat hippocampal slice preparation.[Pubmed:3011168]
Br J Pharmacol. 1986 Apr;87(4):677-84.
CA1 population spikes recorded in the rat hippocampal slice were used to assess quantitatively the potencies of GABA-receptor agonists and antagonists on mammalian CNS neurones. Apart from GABA itself, GABA A-receptor agonists inhibited the CA1 population spikes with potencies that correlated closely (r = 0.96) with their ability to displace [3H]-GABA from GABAA-binding sites. The low potency of GABA in this preparation was attributed to the action of uptake processes as the GABA uptake inhibitor, cis-4-hydroxynipecotic acid (2 X 10(-4) M), produced an approximate 6 fold increase in the potency of GABA whilst having no effect on the potency of 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoxazolo [5,4-c] pyridin-3-ol (THIP), a GABAA-receptor agonist which is not a substrate for the GABA uptake system. The inhibitory effects of the selective GABAA-receptor agonists isoguvacine and muscimol were antagonized by bicuculline methochloride, which shifted the dose-response curves to the right in a parallel manner. The Schild plots for bicuculline methochloride against isoguvacine and muscimol had slopes of 1 and gave pA2 values of 6.24 and 6.10, respectively. Picrotoxin also antagonized the inhibitory effects of isoguvacine and produced parallel shifts to the right of the dose-response curve. However, the Schild plot for picrotoxin had a slope significantly less than unity (0.82) and gave a pA2 value of 6.89. The novel GABAA-receptor antagonist, pitrazepin, antagonized the inhibitory effects of isoguvacine in an apparently competitive manner. The Schild plot had a slope of 1 and gave a pA2 of 6.69. 6 The inhibitory effects of baclofen, GABA and kojic amine were not antagonized by GABAAreceptor antagonists and were presumed to be mediated by actions at GABA5-receptors. 7 The inhibitory effects of THIP and isoguvacine were antagonized with the same potency by bicuculline methobromide. These results do not support the suggestion that THIP acts preferentially at a 'synaptic' bicuculline-sensitive, GABA receptor. 8 It is concluded that the CAI population spike in the rat hippocampal slice is a useful test system for the quantitative analysis of both GABAA- and GABAB-receptor agonists and antagonists.
