Metabotropic glutamate receptor mGluR1a was expressed in human embryonic kidney 293 cells. 1S,3R-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (1S,3R-ACPD) stimulated dose-dependently, phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis in transfected, but not in non-transfected cells. The polyamine spermine did not affect PI hydrolysis in the absence of 1S,3R-ACPD even at a concentration of 1 mM, but it potentiated the stimulatory action of 1S,3R-ACPD at 10 microM. The modulatory action of spermine was mimicked by spermidine but not by the short polyamine putrescine.

Abstract
Metabotropic glutamate receptor mGluR1a was expressed in human embryonic kidney 293 cells. 1S,3R-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (1S,3R-ACPD) stimulated dose-dependently, phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis in transfected, but not in non-transfected cells. The polyamine spermine did not affect PI hydrolysis in the absence of 1S,3R-ACPD even at a concentration of 1 mM, but it potentiated the stimulatory action of 1S,3R-ACPD at 10 microM. The modulatory action of spermine was mimicked by spermidine but not by the short polyamine putrescine.File in questo prodotto:
