- W2097431467 abstract "The effects of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and the GABAA receptor antagonist bicuculline methiodide (BICM) on the activity of taste-responsive neurons in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NST) were examined electrophysiologically in urethane-anesthetized hamsters. Single neurons in the NST were recorded extracellularly and drugs (21 nl) were microinjected into the vicinity of the cell via a multibarrel pipette. The response of each cell was recorded to lingual stimulation with 0.032 M NaCl, 0.032 M sucrose, 0.0032 M citric acid and 0.032 M quinine hydrochloride (QHCl). Forty-six neurons were tested for the effects of GABA; the activity of 29 cells (63%) was inhibited by 5 mM GABA. Whether activity was elicited in these cells by repetitive anodal current stimulation (25 microA, 0.5 s, 0.1 Hz) of the tongue (n = 13 cells) or the cells were spontaneously active (n = 13 cells), GABA produced a dose-dependent (1, 2 and 5 mM) decrement in activity. Forty-seven NST neurons were tested for the effects of BICM on their responses to chemical stimulation of the tongue; the responses of 28 cells (60%) were enhanced by 10 mM BICM. The gustatory responses of 26 of these cells were tested with three concentrations (0.2, 2 and 10 mM) of BICM, which produced a dose-dependent increase in both spontaneous activity and taste-evoked responses. Nine of these neurons were sucrose-best, seven were NaCl-best, eight were acid-best and two responded best to QHCl. The responses to all four tastants were enhanced, with no difference among neuron types. For 18 cells that were tested with two or more gustatory stimuli, BICM increased their breadth of responsiveness to their two most effective stimuli. These data show that approximately 60% of the taste-responsive neurons in the rostral NST are inhibited by GABA and/or subject to a tonic inhibitory influence, which is mediated by GABAA receptors. The modulation of these cells by GABA provides a mechanism by which the breadth of tuning of the cell can be sharpened. Modulation of gustatory activity following a number of physiological changes could be mediated by such a GABAergic circuit." @default.
