Some AMPA receptors are permeable to Ca2+. It has been suggested that cultured rat cerebellar granule cells express Ca(2+)-permeable AMPA receptors, but their distribution at a single cell level is unknown. We report that AMPA (in the presence of cyclothiazide) induced Ca2+ entry (measured by Mn2+ quench of fura-2 fluorescence) and intracellular Ca2+ increases in cerebellar granule cells in the absence of extracellular Na+, supporting the presence of Ca(2+)-permeable AMPA receptors. Analysis of intracellular Ca2+ signals in single cells demonstrated a heterogeneous distribution of Ca(2+)-permeable AMPA receptors.
一些α-氨基-3-羟基-5-甲基-4-异恶唑丙酸(AMPA)受体对Ca2+具有通透性。有人提出,培养的大鼠小脑颗粒细胞表达对Ca2+具有通透性的AMPA受体,但它们在单细胞水平上的分布尚不清楚。我们报告称,在没有细胞外Na+的情况下,AMPA(在环噻嗪存在时)诱导小脑颗粒细胞内Ca2+内流(通过fura-2荧光的Mn2+淬灭来测量)以及细胞内Ca2+增加,这支持了对Ca2+具有通透性的AMPA受体的存在。对单细胞内Ca2+信号的分析表明,对Ca2+具有通透性的AMPA受体分布不均一。
