Popis: | In the present study, extracellular levels of the neuropeptide cholecystokinin (CCK), of the monoamine dopamine and its metabolites 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and homovanillic acid (HVA), and of the excitatory amino acids glutamate and aspartate were simultaneously monitored by microdialysis in the neostriatum of halothane-anesthetized rats under basal and K(+)-depolarizing conditions. Extracellular CCK and dopamine levels, but not glutamate and aspartate levels, were decreased by perfusion with a Ca(2+)-free medium, under both basal and K(+)-depolarizing conditions. HPLC revealed that the majority of the CCK-like immunoreactivity in the perfusates coeluted with CCK octapeptide. Striatal extracellular CCK levels were decreased by decortication plus callosotomy, with a parallel decrease in glutamate levels. Striatal extracellular levels of dopamine, DOPAC, and HVA were significantly decreased in animals treated previously with a unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine injection into the medial forebrain bundle. In these animals, however, the effect of decortication plus callosotomy on CCK and glutamate levels was not further augmented. Thus, this study supports the hypothesis of a neuronal origin of extracellular CCK and dopamine monitored with microdialysis in the striatum of the rat, and also supports the idea of a partly contralateral origin of corticostriatal CCK and glutamate inputs. |
