Neurotransmitter synthesis by neuroblastoma clones (neuroblast differentiation-cell culture-choline acetyltransferase-acetylcholinesterase-tyrosine hydroxylase-axons-dendrites).
Neuroblastoma clones were examined for choline acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.6), tyrosine hydroxylase (EC 1.14.3.a), acetylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.7), and also for neurite formation. One clone does not form axons or dendrites. Three types of clones were found with respect to neurotransmitter synthesis: cholinergic, adrenergic, and clones that do not synthesize acetylcholine or catechols. All clo...
متن کاملSynaptic Zn2+ inhibits neurotransmitter release by promoting endocannabinoid synthesis.
Although it is well established that many glutamatergic neurons sequester Zn(2+) within their synaptic vesicles, the physiological significance of synaptic Zn(2+) remains poorly understood. In experiments performed in a Zn(2+)-enriched auditory brainstem nucleus--the dorsal cochlear nucleus--we discovered that synaptic Zn(2+) and GPR39, a putative metabotropic Zn(2+)-sensing receptor (mZnR), ar...
متن کاملHypoxia. 3. Hypoxia and neurotransmitter synthesis.
Central and peripheral neurons as well as neuroendocrine cells express a variety of neurotransmitters/modulators that play critical roles in regulation of physiological systems. The synthesis of several neurotransmitters/modulators is regulated by O(2)-requiring rate-limiting enzymes. Consequently, hypoxia resulting from perturbations in O(2) homeostasis can affect neuronal functions by alterin...
متن کاملIron deficiency and neurotransmitter synthesis and function.
There has been little work on the effects of irondeficiency on brain metabolism and function despite the fact that Fe deficiency is the most common nutritional disorder in the world (Garby, 1973; Kossner 8z Kalk, 1973). Fe is present in the brain in relatively large amounts and is particularly concentrated in the basal ganglia (Cumings, 1948, 1968; Hallgren 8z Sourander, 1958; Harrison, Netsky ...
متن کاملApoE synthesis in human neuroblastoma cells.
Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is associated with the two hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease: A beta deposits and neurofibrillary tangles. ApoE synthesis was detected in astrocytes by in situ hybridization but was not detected in neurons. Nevertheless, different studies on apoE immunoreactivity reported the presence of apoE in neurons of Alzheimer, control, and necrosis pontisubicular brains. In this st...
