- W1985348216 abstract "Abstract We used the cytotoxic properties of methylazoxymethanol acetate (MAM), which ablates mitotically active neuroblasts, to eliminate neurons in the fetal striatum to define the factors that regulate the development of the synaptic circuitry of this region. Adult rats whose mothers received a single intraperitoneal injection of 20 mg/kg of MAM on gestational days (DG) 14‐17 were used in this study. MAM treatment at 14 DG caused a 49% decrease in striatal mass whereas treatment at 17 DG reduced the striatal weight by only 16%; MAM treatment on 15 or 16 DG gave intermediate results. Histologic analysis of Nissl‐stained sections did not reveal an obvious disruption of striatal organization, although the region was clearly hypoplastic. The hypoplasia was associated with significant increases in the specific activities of choline acetyltransferase and tyrosine hydroxylase, although total activities of these enzymes per striatum were significantly depressed with the 14 or 15 DG treatments. In contrast, the specific activity of glutamate decarboxylase was unaffected by MAM treatment whereas the total activity of this enzyme was reduced commensurate with the degree of striatal hypoplasia. In rats lesioned at 15 DG, there was a similar 30% increase in the specific activities of all presynaptic dopaminergic markers studied. In contrast, the specific activity of the synaptosomal uptake process for [ 3 H]choline was elevated by 60%, the specific activity of choline acetyltransferase was increased by only 30%, and the concentration of acetylcholine in the striatum was unchanged. Whereas the specific activities of glutamate decarboxylase and of the synaptosomal uptake process for [ 3 H]γ‐aminobutyric acid ([ 3 H]GABA) were unaffected by the 15 DG MAM treatment, the concentration of GABA was increased significantly by 20%. The specific binding of [ 3 H]spiroperidol, [ 3 H]quinuclidinyl benzilate ([ 3 H]QNB). and [ 3 H] muscimol to, respectively, dopamine, muscarinic, and GABA receptors was unchanged by the 15 DG MAM lesion. The nigral dopaminergic perikarya appeared unaffected by the 15 DG MAM lesion in that the tyrosine hydroxylase activity remained normal. Consistent with the loss of striatal GABAergic perikarya, the specific activities of glutamate decarboxylase and of the synaptosomal uptake process for [ 3 H]GABA were significantly reduced in the substantia nigra; however, the concentration of endogenous GABA was twofold greater than in control in this terminal region. The results of these studies indicate that the nigro‐striatal dopaminergic pathway only partially compensates for the loss of neurons in its terminal field within the hypoplastic striatum. Striatal cholinergic and GABAergic neurons differ considerably in their responses to the MAM lesion, suggesting that they are derived from different neuroblast pools. Finally, the altered synaptic relationships induced by the fetal lesion may affect neurotransmitter turnover as evidenced by disparities in GABA and acetylcholine levels when compared with other presynaptic markers for the GABAergic and cholinergic neurons." @default.
