  • Title: [Inositoltriphosphate receptors and ryanodine receptors in regulation of cholinosensitivity of Helix lucorum neurones by Na,K-pump during habituation].

    Abstract:
    Influence of ouabain, the inhibitor of Na,K-pump, on habituation of Helix to tactile stimulation was identical to the ouabain-induced modification of cholinosensitivity reduction in command neurones of defensive behaviour of Helix lucorum in cellular model of habituation. Effects of intracellularly injected ligands of two types of Ca2+ -depot receptors, inositoltrisphosphate (IP3) and ryanodine receptors, on ouabain-induced changes were studied in cellular model of habituation. The antagonist of IP3 receptors heparin (0.1 mM), their agonist IP3 (0.1 mM) and inhibitor of ryanodine-dependent Ca2+ mobilization dantrolen (0.1 mM) prevented the depression of acetylcholine-induced current from the ouabain-evoked modification. The agonist/antagonist of ryanodine receptors ryanodine at two tested concentrations (0.1 mM and 1 mM) did not change the ouabain effect. It is concluded that Ca2+ released from intracellular Ca2+ -depots via IP3 receptors is involved into neuronal mechanism of Na,K-pump regulation of habituation in Helix lucorum to tactile stimulation.
