Mechanisms and roles of muscarinic activation in guinea-pig adrenal medullary cells

Abstract: Muscarinic receptors are expressed in the adrenal medullary (AM) cells of various mammals, but their physiological roles are controversial. Therefore, the ionic mechanism for muscarinic receptor-mediated depolarization and the role of muscarinic receptors in neuronal transmission were investigated in dissociated guinea-pig AM cells and in the perfused guinea-pig adrenal gland. Bath application of muscarine induced an inward current at Ϫ60 mV. This inward current was partially suppressed by quinine with an IC50… Show more

“…These isoforms, which are divided into 6 subfamilies, form a homodimeric or heterodimeric channel with isoforms in the same or different subfamilies (2), and they contribute to the resting membrane potential. We have elucidated that TASK1 proteins, which belong to the TASK subfamily of K 2P channels, are expressed in adrenal medullary (AM) cells of rats (3) and guinea pigs (4), and a decrease in external pH induces catecholamine secretion by inhibiting TASK1-like channels (3). Moreover, muscarinic M 1 receptor activation (5) produces suppression of TASK1like channel activity with consequent depolarization in rat AM cells (3,6).…”

“…Moreover, muscarinic M 1 receptor activation (5) produces suppression of TASK1like channel activity with consequent depolarization in rat AM cells (3,6). Thus, TASK1-like channels in AM cells not only function as acidic pH sensors but also are located downstream of muscarinic receptors, which are involved in neuronal transmission from the sympathetic preganglionic nerve fiber (4,7,8). However, the molecular identity of TASK1-like channels in AM cells remains an open question.…”

“…These results indicate that G q ‐PLC signalling was not altered by M 1 receptor ablation. Furthermore, a decrease in the external pH to 6.8 induced secretion, probably via inhibition of TASK channel activity (Inoue et al ., 2008; 2012), in 38% ( n = 3), 38% ( n = 6) and 60% ( n = 18) of the cells examined in wild‐type, M 1 M 4 KO and M 1 M 2 M 4 KO mice respectively (Figure B, D and E). These results suggest that the expression of TASK1 channels was not affected by the lack of M 1 receptors.…”

“…Embryonic rat chromaffin cells, just before birth, exhibited an increase in intracellular Ca 2+ concentration in response to stimulation of nAChRs, but not of muscarinic receptors, whereas cells after birth responded to muscarinic receptor stimulation as well. Muscarinic receptors are responsible for part of neuronal transmission in guinea pig chromaffin cells (Inoue et al ., ; Warashina and Inoue, ). Taken together with phylogenic and ontogenic considerations, this result suggests that muscarinic signalling in chromaffin cells develops to help animals cope with life‐threatening stress.…”
