Methylglyoxal (MGO), a highly reactive dicarbonyl metabolite of glucose primarily formed during the glycolytic pathway, is a precursor of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). Recently, numerous studies have shown that MGO accumulation can cause pain and hyperalgesia. However, the mechanism through which MGO induces pain in the spinal dorsal horn remains unclear. The present study investigated the effect of MGO on spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic currents (sEPSC) in rat spinal dorsal horn neurons using blind whole-cell patch-clamp recording. Perfusion of MGO increased the frequency and amplitude of sEPSC in spinal horn neurons in a concentration-dependent manner. Additionally, MGO administration increased the number of miniature EPSC (mEPSC) in the presence of tetrodotoxin, a sodium channel blocker. However, 6-cyano-7-nitroqiunocaline-2,3-dione (CNQX), an AMPA/kainate receptor antagonist, blocked the enhancement of sEPSC by MGO. HC-030031, a TRP ankyrin-1 (TRPA1) antagonist, and capsazepine, a TRP vanilloid-1 (TRPV1) antagonist, inhibited the action of MGO. Notably, the effects of MGO were completely inhibited by HC-030031 and capsazepine. MGO generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) via AGEs. ROS also potentially induce pain via TRPA1 and TRPV1 in the spinal dorsal horn. Furthermore, we examined the effect of MGO in the presence of N-tert-butyl-α-phenylnitrone (PBN), a non-selective ROS scavenger, and found that the effect of MGO was completely inhibited. These results suggest that MGO increases spontaneous glutamate release from the presynaptic terminal to spinal dorsal horn neurons through TRPA1, TRPV1, and ROS and could enhance excitatory synaptic transmission.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008277 Magnesium Oxide Magnesium oxide (MgO). An inorganic compound that occurs in nature as the mineral periclase. In aqueous media combines quickly with water to form magnesium hydroxide. It is used as an antacid and mild laxative and has many nonmedicinal uses. Magnesia,Oxide, Magnesium
D009435 Synaptic Transmission The communication from a NEURON to a target (neuron, muscle, or secretory cell) across a SYNAPSE. In chemical synaptic transmission, the presynaptic neuron releases a NEUROTRANSMITTER that diffuses across the synaptic cleft and binds to specific synaptic receptors, activating them. The activated receptors modulate specific ion channels and/or second-messenger systems in the postsynaptic cell. In electrical synaptic transmission, electrical signals are communicated as an ionic current flow across ELECTRICAL SYNAPSES. Neural Transmission,Neurotransmission,Transmission, Neural,Transmission, Synaptic
