摘要
We previously demonstrated that antidepressant drugs (ADs) cause Ca2+ release from inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-sensitive Ca2+ stores in cultured neurons of rat frontal cortex. The present study examines the mechanism by which tricyclic ADs activate phospholipase C (PLC) in rat frontal cortex. Using an exogenous substrate to measure PLC activity, we demonstrated that a tricyclic AD, imipramine, stimulated PLC activity of the frontal cortex membrane in a concentration-dependent manner. Two tricyclic ADs, desipramine and amitriptyline, also stimulated PLC activity, while Li+ or pargyline had no effect on PLC activity. Although imipramine did not activate PLC in the membrane in the absence of Ca2+, imipramine synergistically activated PLC in the presence of Ca2+. This result indicates that the mechanism of PLC activation by imipramine is different from its activation by Ca2+. Imipramine stimulated PLC activity in the cytosol of rat frontal cortex as well as in the membrane. Preincubation of the cytosol with anti-PLC-beta(1) antibody prevented the imipramine-mediated activation of PLC. However, preincubation with anti-PLC-gamma(i) or anti-PLC-delta(1) did not prevent activation of PLC. These results suggest that imipramine activates PLC-beta(1) directly without receptor or guanine nucleotide binding protein mediation.
