摘要: We investigated in rat hippocampus neurons whether 4-(aminobutyl)guanidine (agmatine), formed by decarboxylation ofl-arginine arginine decarboxylase and metabolized to urea putrescine, can modulate the function of N -methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor channels. In cultured hippocampal studied whole-cell patch clamp, extracellular-applied agmatine produced a voltage- concentration-dependent block NMDA but not α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid nor kainate currents. Analysis voltage dependence suggests that binds at site located within channel pore with dissociation constant 952 μM 0 mV an electric distance 0.62. also tested effects several analogs. Arcaine (1,4-butyldiguanidine) similar voltage-dependent current, whereas putrescine (1,4-butyldiamine) had little effect, suggesting guanidine group is active moiety when blocking channel. Moreover, spermine (an endogenous polyamine) potentiated current even presence blocker or arcaine, guanidine-containing compounds arcaine interact binding different from spermine. Our results indicate selectively modulates subclass glutamate channels mediated interaction between pore. The support other data may as neurotransmitter/neuromodulator brain.
