- W2000504997 abstract "G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are considered the most diverse and ubiquitous family of integral membrane proteins and play a pivotal role in many cellular signalling pathways. In any single neuron, GPCRs can be located both pre- and postsynaptically or exclusively in either domain. Generally, activation of the same receptor at its different locations can result in modulation of different target ion channels. Nevertheless, a common feature of GPCRs is that when persistently activated, responses decrease over time, owing to receptor desensitization. Although it might be assumed that GPCRs at all sites on the same neuron are subject to similar levels of desensitization, a recent study has provided compelling evidence that this is not the case.Wetherington and Lambert have now shown that one GPCR, the adenosine A1-receptor, desensitizes more rapidly at postsynaptic sites compared with presynaptic sites, even when located on the same neuron [1xDifferential desensitization of responses mediated by presynaptic and postsynaptic A1 adenosine receptors. Wetherington, J.P. and Lambert, N.A. J. Neurosci. 2002; 22: 1248–1255PubMedSee all References][1]. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings were made from hippocampal neurons that had been cultured in isolation to promote formation of autapses (synapses made by neurons on themselves). Responses to adenosine-A1-receptor stimulation were evident postsynaptically as activation of inwardly rectifying K? (GIRK) channels, and presynaptically as modulation of excitatory postsynaptic currents (EPSCs) through inhibition of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels in the terminal. Thus, by applying adenosine-A1-receptor agonists for prolonged periods, the desensitization rates of pre- and postsynaptic responses could be elucidated in the same neuron. Remarkably, the postsynaptic receptors desensitized within two hours, whereas presynaptic responses were unchanged until 12 hours or more of agonist exposure. Moreover, although postsynaptic responses recovered over a matter of hours, presynaptic effects took up to two days to recover. These effects appeared not to reflect modification of either ion channels or G proteins, as GABAB-receptor-mediated responses (which are likely to use the same pathway) were unchanged. Additionally, these effects could not be ascribed to a large receptor reserve present at presynaptic, but not postsynaptic, sites.These elegant experiments indicate that the subcellular localization of a GPCR can influence the rate of receptor desensitization. GPCRs are prime targets for the development of therapeutic agents designed to either block or activate the receptors. Furthermore, tolerance to, and dependence on, some addictive drugs has been strongly linked to chronic activation of GPCRs. Therefore, assuming this situation applies in more intact preparations, we might gain valuable insights into the cellular mechanisms underlying the differential development of tolerance to separate effects of the same drug." @default.
