RESUMO

We have recently shown delayed increases in GABAB receptor (GABABR) subunit protein levels in the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG), but not in the pyramidal CA1 and CA3 regions, at 15-30 days after the systemic single administration of trimethyltin (TMT) in mice. An attempt was thus made to determine whether the delayed increases return to the control levels found in naive mice afterward. In the DG on hippocampal slices obtained at 90 days after the administration, however, marked increases were still seen in protein levels of both GABABR1 and GABABR2 subunits without significant changes in calbindin and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) levels on immunoblotting analysis. Fluoro-Jade B staining clearly revealed the absence of degenerated neurons from the DG at 90 days after the administration. Although co-localization was invariably detected between GABABR2 subunit and GFAP in the DG at 30 days on immunohistochemical analysis, GABABR2-positive cells did not merge well with GFAP-positive cells in the DG at 90 days. These results suggest that both GABABR1 and GABABR2 subunits would be tardily and sustainably up-regulated by cells other than neurons and astrocytes in the murine DG at 90 days after a systemic single injection of TMT.

RESUMO

Trimethyltin (TMT) has been used as a cytotoxin to neurons rather than glial cells in the mammalian hippocampus. The systemic administration of TMT led to declined fluorescence of ZnAF-2 DA staining as a marker of intact mossy fibers and increased fluorescence of Fluoro-Jade B staining as a marker of degenerated neurons during the initial 2 to 5 days after the administration with later ameliorations within 30 days in the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG) and CA3 region in mice. On immunoblotting analysis, both GABABR1 and GABABR2 subunit levels increased during 15 to 30 days after TMT along with significant decreases in glutamatergic GluA1 and GluA2/3 receptor subunit levels during 2 to 7 days in the DG, but not in other hippocampal regions such as CA1 and CA3 regions. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed the constitutive and inducible expression of GABABR2 subunit in cells immunoreactive to an astrocytic marker as well as neuronal markers in the DG with the absence of neither GABABR1a nor GABABR1b subunit from cells positive to an astrocytic marker. These results suggest that both GABABR1 and GABABR2 subunits may be up-regulated in cells other than neurons and astroglia in the DG at a late stage of TMT intoxication in mice.
