摘要

Mesencephalic trigeminal (MeV) neurons are primary sensory neurons of which the cell soma is located within the brainstem, and is associated with synaptic contacts. In previous studies it has been reported that these cells are resistant to kainic acid excitotoxicity, and have little or no responsiveness to exogenously applied glutamate or selective agonists. In an in vitro slice preparation with intracellular recording, we have found that these cells respond to pressure-applied glutamate, N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA), kainate (KA), and (R,S)-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA). The kainate and AMPA responses appear to be mediated by different receptors, at least in part, since they exhibit differing sensitivity to an AMPA receptor selective antagonist. The agonists generally evoke larger responses than glutamate and exhibit a long-duration desensitization requiring approximately 10 min for full recovery. Some cross-desensitization between the glutamate agonists is also observed. Mesencephalic trigeminal neurons exhibit high-frequency oscillatory activity during depolarizations that approach threshold potentials, and these could combine with transmitter-induced depolarizations to enhance the excitability of these cells. Previous reports of nonsensitivity to glutamate and to kainate excitotoxicity are attributable to relatively small responses, and to the desensitization expressed by these neurons.
