Abstract
Calcium-independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2) is an 85-kDa enzyme that releases docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) from glycerophospholipids. DHA can be metabolized to resolvins and neuroprotectins that have anti-inflammatory properties and effects on neural plasticity. Recent studies show an important role of prefrontal cortical iPLA2 in hippocampo-prefrontal cortical LTP and antidepressant-like effect of the norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (NRI) antidepressant, maprotiline. In this study, we elucidated the cellular mechanisms through which stimulation of adrenergic receptors could lead to increased iPLA2 expression. Treatment of SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells with maprotiline, another tricyclic antidepressant with noradrenaline reuptake inhibiting properties, nortriptyline, and the adrenergic receptor agonist, phenylephrine, resulted in increased iPLA2β mRNA expression. This increase was blocked by inhibitors to alpha-1 adrenergic receptor, mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase or extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2, and sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP). Maprotiline and phenylephrine induced binding of SREBP-2 to sterol regulatory element (SRE) region on the iPLA2 promoter, as determined by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). Together, results indicate that stimulation of adrenoreceptors causes increased iPLA2 expression via MAP kinase/ERK 1/2 and SREBP, and suggest a possible mechanism for effect of CNS noradrenaline on neural plasticity and crosstalk between sterol and glycerophospholipid mediators, that may play a role in physiological or pathophysiological processes in the brain and other organs.

Abstract
The transient receptor potential (TRP) vanilloid receptor subtype 1 (TRPV1) is a ligand-gated, Ca(2+)-permeable ion channel in the TRP superfamily of channels. We report the establishment of the first neuronal model expressing recombinant human TRPV1 (SH-SY5Y(hTRPV1)). SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells were stably transfected with hTRPV1 using the Amaxa Biosystem (hTRPV1 in pIREShyg2 with hygromycin selection). Capsaicin, olvanil, resiniferatoxin and the endocannabinoid anandamide increased [Ca(2+)](i) with potency (EC(50)) values of 2.9 nmol/L, 34.7 nmol/L, 0.9 nmol/L and 4.6 micromol/L, respectively. The putative endovanilloid N-arachidonoyl-dopamine increased [Ca(2+)](i) but this response did not reach a maximum. Capsaicin, anandamide, resiniferatoxin and olvanil mediated increases in [Ca(2+)](i) were inhibited by the TRPV1 antagonists capsazepine and iodo-resiniferatoxin with potencies (K(B)) of approximately 70 nmol/L and 2 nmol/L, respectively. Capsaicin stimulated the release of pre-labelled [(3)H]noradrenaline from monolayers of SH-SY5Y(hTRPV1) cells with an EC(50) of 0.6 nmol/L indicating amplification between [Ca(2+)](i) and release. In a perfusion system, we simultaneously measured [(3)H]noradrenaline release and [Ca(2+)](i) and observed that increased [Ca(2+)](i) preceded transmitter release. Capsaicin treatment also produced a cytotoxic response (EC(50) 155 nmol/L) that was antagonist-sensitive and mirrored the [Ca(2+)](I) response. This model displays pharmacology consistent with TRPV1 heterologously expressed in standard non-neuronal cells and native neuronal cultures. The advantage of SH-SY5Y(hTRPV1) is the ability of hTRPV1 to couple to neuronal biochemical machinery and produce large quantities of cells.

Abstract
The role of the voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channel (VSCC) as a target for anaesthetic action remains controversial. In this study we characterized the VSCC subtypes involved in K+-evoked norepinephrine and dopamine release from rat striatal slices and used this model system to examine the effects of a range of i.v. anaesthetics on release. Nifedipine (L-channel-selective), omega-conotoxin GVI(A) (N-channel-selective), omega-agatoxin IV(A) (P-channel-selective), omega-conotoxin MVIIc (P/Q-channel-selective) and Cd2+ (non-selective), along with alphaxalone, propofol and ketamine, were used in various combinations. Omega-Agatoxin IV(A), omega-conotoxin MVIIc and Cd2+ fully (100%) inhibited norepinephrine and dopamine release. Clinically achievable concentrations of alphaxalone inhibited norepinephrine and dopamine release, with concentrations producing 25 and 50% inhibition (IC25 and IC50) of the maximum of 2.1 and 7.8 microM respectively for norepinephrine and 2.9 and 7.2 microM for dopamine. The effects of propofol were observed at the top of the clinical range and those of ketamine exceeded this range. In addition, IC50 values for alphaxalone in the presence and absence of nifedipine and omega-conotoxin GVI(A) did not differ from the control. Our data suggest that clinically achievable concentrations of alphaxalone and propofol inhibit norepinephrine and dopamine release, which is mediated predominantly through P/Q-type VSCCs, suggesting a role for these channels in anaesthetic action.

Abstract
Interleukins are potent intercellular messenger peptides, initially found in cells of the immune system and best known for producing chronic, genomic effects in target cells. Here, interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) was tested for acute effects on neurotransmitter release. The human neuroblastoma-derived cell-line SH-SY5Y is a model for mature post-ganglionic sympathetic neurones and release of tritiated noradrenaline from these cells was measured, in response to stimulation with either elevated extracellular K+ concentration (100 K+) orveratridine. Pre-incubation for 15-25 min with 60 pM (but not 0.06 pM) IL-1beta significantly reduced 100 K+-evoked release (by approximately 75%). The interleukin was without effect on basal or veratridine-evoked noradrenaline release. The present data suggest two distinct stimulatory pathways: one that is activated by 100 K+ and veratridine and is unaffected by IL-1beta and another that is activated by 100 K+ but not veratridine and is inhibited by IL-1beta. The acute depression of 100 K+-evoked transmitter release may be involved in immune system-nervous system interactions.

Abstract
We have examined the effects of the intravenous anaesthetic induction agent etomidate on K+ and carbachol evoked [3H]noradrenaline ([3H]NA) release and the associated increase in [Ca2+]i in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells in a attempt to study potential anaesthetic target site(s). Preincubation with etomidate produced a dose-dependent inhibition of both K+ and carbachol evoked [3H]NA release with estimated IC50 values of 88 and 69 microM, respectively. Only K+ stimulated increase in [Ca2+]i was inhibited by etomidate preincubation with an IC50 of 146 microM. Acute addition of etomidate after K+ challenge also inhibited the increase in [Ca2+]i with an IC50 of 99 microM. In addition etomidate displaced the binding of [3H]PN200-110 to L-type voltage sensitive Ca2+ channels with a Ki of 48 microM. As K+ but not carbachol evoked [3H]NA release is extracellular Ca2+ dependent and was inhibited by etomidate these data coupled with the PN200-110 displacement studies suggest that etomidate may interact with L-type voltage sensitive Ca2+ channels. The inhibition of carbachol evoked release without affecting the associated increase in [Ca2+]i suggests that etomidate may exert additional effects at either the muscarinic receptor or the secretory machinery in these cells.

Abstract
Radioligand binding studies using the L-type voltage sensitive Ca2+ channel (VSCC) antagonist (+)-[3H]PN200-110 revealed the following rank order channel density in rat brain and cultured neuronal cell homogenates: striatum > or = cerebrocortex > > cerebellum = brainstem > SH-SY5Y cell line > NG108-15 cell line > 1321N1 cell line > PC12 cell line. There were no significant differences in the equilibrium dissociation constant, Kd for (+)-[3H]PN200-110 or pK50 for nifedipine. K+ depolarization in SH-SY5Y cells and NG108-15 cells evoked a biphasic and monophasic increase in [Ca2+]i. The L-type Ca2+ channel antagonist nifedipine (1 microM) produced a 66 and 87% inhibition of the K(+)-evoked rise in the peak and plateau phase [Ca2+]i in SH-SY5Y cells and abolished the monophasic response in NG108-15 cells. The L-channel activator S(-)Bay K 8644 (1 microM) enhanced the K(+)-evoked increase in [Ca2+]i in both cell lines. These data demonstrate a comparatively low density of L-VSCC in undifferentiated SH-SY5Y cells, NG108-15 cells, 1321N1 cells and PC12 cells that are functionally active in at least SH-SY5Y cells and NG108-15 cells.

Abstract
We have examined the effects of a range of opioid receptor subtype selective agonists on K+ evoked glutamate release from perfused rat cerebrocortical slices. Dual application (S1 and S2) of K+ (46 mM) evoked dual monophasic glutamate release profiles. When areas under the release curves were calculated an S2/S1 ratio for control slices of 1.07 +/- 0.08 (n = 75) was obtained, this was reduced by 80% with EGTA (0.1 mM) treatment confirming the presence of a Ca2+ regulated release process, Morphine produced a dose-dependent inhibition of the S2/S1 ratio. At 1 microM this amounted to 78 +/- 12% (mean +/- SEM; n = 6). (D-Ala2,MePhe4,gly(ol)5)enkephalin (DAMGO; 60 +/- 12%, n = 6 at 1 microM), and spiradoline (53 +/- 14% at 1 and 71 +/- 11% at 100 microM, both n = 6) also inhibited glutamate release in a cyprodime (10 microM) and norbinaltorphimine (10 microM) reversible manner. (D-Pen2.5) enkephalin (DPDPE; 1 microM) was ineffective. All agents tested did not affect basal glutamate release. Collectively these data implicate a role for mu and kappa opioids in the control of evoked glutamate release and their potential for neuroprotective therapy.

Abstract
We have investigated the potential neurotoxicity of the catecholamine depleting agent 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-methyl-4,6,7-isoquinolinetriol (TMIQ) in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. TMIQ induced a time and dose related inhibition of 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide; thiazoyl blue (MTT) reduction and an increase in lactate dehydrogenase release. After 72 h TMIQ (30 μM) significantly (P < 0.05) inhibited MTT reduction, and significantly increased LDH release. TMIQ cytotoxicity was not prevented by the inclusion of monoamine oxidase inhibitors (clorgyline or deprenyl), antioxidants (α-tocopherol or Trolox C) or the uptake(1) inhibitor imipramine. TMIQ also induced a dose dependent stimulation of [(3)H]noradrenaline (NA) uptake, with maximum at 100 μM and EC(50) of 8 μM. This stimulation of [(3)H]NA uptake was not prevented by the inhibition of protein kinase C, or activation of adenylate or guanylate cyclases. In addition, TMIQ significantly (P < 0.05) displaced [(3)H]nisoxetine binding from the uptake(1) recognition site with a K(i) of 71 ± 8 μM. However, as this interaction occurs at concentrations of TMIQ well above the EC(50) for [(3)H]NA uptake, it is unlikely to explain TMIQ stimulated NA uptake. Furthermore, TMIQ inhibited potassium evoked [(3)H]NA release from SH-SY5Y cells, with an IC(50) of 490 μM. Thus, TMIQ is cytotoxic to SH-SY5Y cells. However, the exact mechanism of toxicity requires further investigation, since it appears not to involve monoamine oxidase bioactivation, and is not mediated through membrane based free radical damage. Furthermore, although TMIQ inhibits mitochondrial Complex I (IC(50) = 1.5 mM) with potency apparently greater than MPTP (2.7 mM), mitochondrial respiration was unaffected. The present studies suggest that the mechanism of toxicity differs from that causing depletion of catecholamines and inhibition of tyrosine hydroxylase by TMIQ described in previous studies.

Abstract
We have examined the effects of two intravenous anaesthetic induction agents, propofol and thiopentone, on K+ and carbachol evoked [3H]noradrenaline release from a human neuroblastoma cell line, SH-SY5Y. In this model, we have previously demonstrated that K+ evoked [3H]noradrenaline release was dependent on Ca2+ entry and carbachol evoked release was extracellular Ca(2+)- independent. Propofol inhibited K+ (100 mM)-evoked (IC50 of 42 +/- 11 microM), but not carbachol (1 mM)-evoked, [3H]noradrenaline release. Thiopentone inhibited both K+- and carbachol-evoked release with IC50 values of 116 +/- 15 microM and 169 +/- 39 microM, respectively. These inhibitory effects were not due to changes in the release dynamics, as assessed using perfused cells. Furthermore, thiopentone inhibition of carbachol-evoked release was not due to muscarinic receptor antagonism. Both propofol and thiopentone caused noncompetitive inhibition of K+-stimulated Ca2+ influx, with IC50 values of 127 +/- 7 microM and 121 +/- 10 microM, respectively. These effects were not due to interaction with GABAA receptors, but suggest that both compounds block voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels. Thiopentone, but not propofol, inhibited carbachol-stimulated increased intracellular Ca2+ concentrations in the presence and absence of extracellular Ca2+. However, thiopentone had no effect on carbachol-stimulated inositol (1,4,5)-triphosphate formation, suggesting that thiopentone may directly inhibit Ca2+ release from intracellular stores.

Abstract
We have studied the hypothesis that 6,7-dihydroxy-1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (salsolinol) is neurotoxic. Salsolinol induced a significant time and dose related inhibition of 3[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide; thiazoyl blue (MTT) reduction, and increased lactate dehydrogenase release (LDH) release from human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, at concentrations within the range of 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) cytotoxicity, in vitro. Cytotoxicity was not inhibited by the addition of antioxidants, monoamine oxidase inhibitors or imipramine. In confluent monolayers, salsolinol stimulated catecholamine uptake with EC50 values of 17 muM and 11 muM, for noradrenaline and dopamine, respectively. Conversely, at concentrations above 100 muM, salsolinol inhibited the uptake of noradrenaline and dopamine, with IC50 values of 411 muM and 379 muM, respectively. The inhibition of catecholamine uptake corresponded to the increase displacement of [3H]nisoxetine from the uptake 1 site by salsolinol, as the Ki (353 muM) for displacement was similar to the IC50 (411 and 379 muM) for uptake. Salsolinol stimulated catecholamine uptake does not involve the uptake recognition site, or elevation of cAMP, cGMP, or inhibition of protein kinase C. Salsolinol also inhibited both carbachol (1 mM) and K+ (100 mM, Na+ adjusted) evoked released of noradrenaline from SH-SY5Y cells, with IC50 values of 500 muM and 120 muM, respectively. In conclusion, salsolinol appears to be cytotoxic to SH-SY5Y cells, via a mechanism that does not require uptake 1, bioactivation by monoamine oxidase, or membrane based free radical damage. The effects of salsolinol on catecholamine uptake, and the mechanism of toxicity require further investigation.

Abstract
1. Recent data suggesting that the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y is a suitable cell line in which to study the effect of second messengers on NA release are discussed in the context of current views on exocytosis. 2. Release of NA is evoked by depolarization, as well as activation of muscarinic (M3) and bradykinin (B2) receptors in SH-SY5Y cells which have not been differentiated by the addition of growth factors. 3. Evoked release is enhanced by activation of protein kinase C. 4. Activation of protein kinase C decreases the changes in intracellular calcium evoked by carbachol, bradykinin and 100 mM K+. 5. SH-SY5Y express N-type and L-type voltage sensitive Ca2+ channels. L-Type Ca(2+)-channels are coupled to NA release under conditions of weak depolarization. However with strong depolarization (100 mM K+) both L-type and N-type channels are involved. 6. Muscarinic- and neuropeptide Y receptors are coupled to the inhibition of Ca2+ channel activity.

Abstract
1. We used SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells to investigate whether depolarization with high K+ could stimulate inositol (1,4,5)trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) formation and, if so, the mechanism involved. 2. Ins(1,4,5)P3 was measured by a specific radioreceptor mass assay, whilst [Ca2+]i was measured fluorimetrically with the Ca2+ indicator dye, Fura-2. 3. Depolarization with K+ caused a time- and dose-dependent increase in [Ca2+]i (peak at 27 s, EC50 of 50.0 +/- 9.0 mM) and Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation (peak at 30 s, EC50 of 47.4 +/- 1.1 mM). 4. Both the K(+)-induced Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation and increase in [Ca2+]i were inhibited dose-dependently by the L-type voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channel closer, (R+)-BayK8644, with IC50 values of 53.4 nM and 87.9 nM respectively. 5. These data show a close temporal and dose-response relationship between Ca2+ entry via L-type voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels and Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation following depolarization with K+, indicating that Ca2+ influx can activate phospholipase C in SH-SY5Y cells.
