The aim of the present study is to elucidate the possible significance of metabolic control of the calcium permeability of synaptosomes induced by alpha-latrotoxin. The alpha-latrotoxin influence of processes of GABA release and reuptake is shown to depend on synaptosomal metabolism. It has been found that incubation by the synaptosomes during one hour at 37 degrees C or their treatment by 10(-3) M monoiodacetate during 10 min at 10 degrees C or at room temperature completely abolished or at least strongly decreased the ability of alpha-latrotoxin to induce the calcium influx. Under the same conditions the ability of alpha-latrotoxin to activate the GABA release and inhibit the GABA reuptake do not change. It is concluded that only formation of calcium channels by alpha-latrotoxin is strictly controlled by the level of synaptosomal metabolism.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
