Excitatory synaptic transmission in cultures of rat olfactory bulb

P. Q. Trombley and G. L. Westbrook
Department of Biology, University of Oregon, Eugene 97403.

1. Olfactory bulb neurons were dissociated from neonatal rats and plated at low density on a confluent layer of olfactory bulb astrocytes. Intracellular stimulation of presumptive mitral/tufted (M/T) cells evoked monosynaptic excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) in adjacent neurons. Whole-cell recording techniques and a flow-pipe drug delivery system were used to compare EPSPs with voltage-clamp recordings of currents evoked by excitatory amino acids (EAA) including N-acetylaspartylglutamate (NAAG), a putative mitral cell transmitter. 2. Cultured olfactory bulb neurons were morphologically and physiologically distinct. Large pyramidal-shaped neurons were present, which were NAAG immunoreactive; stimulation of these neurons invariably evoked EPSPs, suggesting that they were M/T cells. The majority of small bipolar neurons were glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) immunoreactive consistent with granule or periglomerular gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic interneurons. 3. Monosynaptic EPSPs between M/T cells could be separated into fast and slow components by the use of EAA receptor antagonists. A fast component with a time-to-peak of 7.7 +/- 1.0 (SE) ms and half-width of 31.8 +/- 7.4 ms was blocked by the non-NMDA receptor antagonist 6-cyano-2,3-dihydroxy-7-nitro-quinoxaline (CNQX, 2.5 microM). The slow component (time-to-peak = 41.4 +/- 7.2 ms; half-width = 218.9 +/- 40.4 ms) was blocked by the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist DL-2-amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid (AP5, 100 microM). 4. Under voltage clamp, flow-pipe applications of NAAG (10-1,000 microM) evoked inward currents at a holding potential of -60 mV in Mg-free solutions.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
