摘要

Because ascorbic acid (AA) is concentrated in synaptic vesicles con- taining glutamic acid, we hypothesized that AA might act as a neurotransmitter. Because AA is an antioxidant, it might therefore inhibit nitric oxidergic (NOergic) adivation of luteinizing hormone- releasing hormone (LH-RH) release from medial basal hypothalamic explants by chemically reducing NO. Cell membrane depolarization induced by increased pot8ssium concentration [K+] increased me- dium concentrations of both AA and LH-RH. An inhibitor of NO synthase (NOS), NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (NMMA), prevented the increase in medium concentrations of AA and LH-RH induced by high [K+], suggesting that NO mediates release of both AA and LH-RH. Calcium-free medium blocked not only the increase in AA in the medium but also the release of LH-RH. Sodium nitroprusside. which releases NO, Stimulated LH-RH release and decreased the concentra- tion of AA in the incubation medium. presumably because the NO released oxidized AA to dehydro-AA. AA (10--5 to 10--3 M) had no effect on basal LH-RH release but completely blocked high [K+]- and nitroprusside-induced LH-RH release. NMethyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA). which mimics the action of the excitatory amino acid neu- rotransmitt6r glutamic acid, releases LH-RH by releasing NO. AA (10--s to 10--s M) inhibited the LH-RH-releasing action of NMDA. AA may be an inhibitory neurotransmitter that blocks Noergic stimulation of LH-RH release by chemically reducing the NO released by the Noergic neurons.
