[Apoptosis and its receptor selective pathways during neurotoxic action of glutamate].

A contribution of necrosis and apoptotis as well as the particular apoptosis pathways in neuro-degeneration induced by glutamate and selective glutamate receptor agonists, NMDA and kainate, were studied. In experiments on primary neuron cultures of 7 days in vitro from embryonic rat cortex, the necrosis and apoptosis were recognized using vital fluorescence acridine orange and ethidium bromide staining. Immunostaining was used to visualize apoptotic peptides such as P53, Cas-3 and AIF. Death of neurons occurred by both necrosis and apoptosis following 240 min 3 mM glutamate, 30 microM NMDA and 30 microM kainate exposure. Quantities of necrotic neurons in the presence of NMDA and kainate were substantially reduced when compared to the glutamate action. The glutamate effects were realized through predominant activation of AMPA- and kainate receptors, since it could be greatly suppressed by 30 microM CNQX. AIF but not Cas-3, was found in a large amount of neurons when apoptosis was evoked by the selective NMDA receptor activation. On the contrary, during apoptosis induced by glutamate and kainate, many cells contained Cas-3 in nuclei rather than the AIF. The data suggest that apoptosis induced by the NMDA receptor activation develops through the caspase-3-independent pathway that involves direct AIF accumulation in nuclei. The AMPA/kainate receptor mediated apoptosis includes the caspase-3-dependent mechanism.
