ABSTRACT
AIM:
To study whether agonists of group II and III metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) exert effects on LPS-induced glutamate uptake inhibition in C6 glioma cells.METHODS:
The glutamate uptake into C6 glioma cells was measured by uptake of [3H]-D,L-glutamate; and the apoptosis and the viability of C6 glioma cells were investigated by Hoechst33342 and MTT methods, respectively.RESULTS:
LPS (4, 6 ?g/mL) inhibited glutamate uptake significantly compared with that in the control group without effect on the apoptosis and viability of C6 glioma cells. Pretreatment of C6 glioma cells with group II and III mGluRs agonists DCG-IV(100 ?mol/L) and L-AP4(100 ?mol/L) reversed LPS-induced glutamate uptake inhibition. These recovery effects were abolished by their respective antagonists APICA and MSOP.CONCLUSION:
Activation of group II and III mGluRs recovers LPS-induced glutamate uptake inhibition in C6 glioma cells, suggesting the enhancement of glutamate uptake is involved in neuroprotective roles exerted by group II and III mGluRs agonists.
