Using digitonin-permeabilised bovine adrenal chromaffin cells, the effects of botulinum neurotoxin light chains on exocytosis triggered by Ca2+ or by GppNHp were examined. Botulinum neurotoxin D light chain, prepared as a His(6)-tagged recombinant protein, cleaved VAMP and substantially inhibited catecholamine release due to Ca2+ and GppNHp. Botulinum neurotoxin C1 and E light chains produced partial inhibition of both Ca(2+)- and GppNHp-induced catecholamine release. These results suggest that Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis and Ca(2+)-independent exocytosis triggered by a non-hydrolysable GTP analogue occurs via a SNARE-dependent mechanism in chromaffin cells.
利用洋地黄皂苷通透处理的牛肾上腺嗜铬细胞,研究了肉毒杆菌神经毒素轻链对由Ca2+或GppNHp触发的胞吐作用的影响。作为His(6)标签重组蛋白制备的肉毒杆菌神经毒素D轻链,切割VAMP并显著抑制由Ca2+和GppNHp引起的儿茶酚胺释放。肉毒杆菌神经毒素C1和E轻链对Ca(2+)和GppNHp诱导的儿茶酚胺释放均产生部分抑制作用。这些结果表明,在嗜铬细胞中,由不可水解的GTP类似物触发的Ca(2+)依赖性胞吐作用和Ca(2+)非依赖性胞吐作用是通过SNARE依赖性机制发生的。
