Adenosine and 5-HT inhibit substance P release from nerve endings in myenteric ganglia by distinct mechanisms.

Release of substance P-like immunoreactivity (SP-LI) from dissociated enteric ganglia and the receptor-mediated prejunctional inhibition of this release were investigated with the use of a perifusion technique. SP-LI release was evoked by elevated extracellular K+ concentration and was inhibited, in a graded manner, by N6-cyclopentyl adenosine (CPA), an adenosine analogue with selectivity for adenosine A1 receptors. Similar inhibition of SP-LI release was obtained with 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT); incrementing concentrations, however, yielded a biphasic concentration-response relationship. The selective adenosine A1 receptor antagonist 1,3-dipropyl-8-cyclopentyl-xanthine abolished the inhibition due to CPA, whereas the inhibitory action of 5-HT was sensitive to the 5-HT1A-selective antagonist 1-(2-methoxyphenyl)-4-[4-(2-phthalimido)butyl]-piperazine hydrobromide. Inhibition due to both agonists was insensitive to blockade by tetrodotoxin, suggesting a prejunctional locus for both adenosine and 5-HT1A receptors on the tachykininergic nerve endings. Pretreatment of ganglia with pertussis toxin had no effect on CPA-mediated inhibition of SP-LI release, whereas 5-HT-mediated inhibition was abolished. The findings demonstrate that adenosine and 5-HT receptors on enteric nerve endings are coupled to inhibition of tachykinin release through distinct mechanisms, putatively distinct G proteins.
