Effect of PAR1 agonist on acetylcholine secretion in a newly formed neuromuscular synapse in mice

Abstract

Peptide agonist of PAR1 in a concentration of 10 µM significantly facilitated neuromuscular transmission in newly formed synapses in mice. The absence of changes in the amplitude of miniature end-plate potentials attests to presynaptic mechanism of the effect of PAR1 agonist. The effect of the peptide was blocked by protein kinase A inhibitor H89 (1 µM). Blockade of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors with 2-aminoethoxydiphenylborate (30 µM) did not prevent the effects of PAR1 agonist. Inhibition of protein kinase C with bisindolylmaleimide (1 µM) facilitated neuromuscular transmission in newly formed synapses. Protein kinase C inhibition was associated with reversal of the object of PAR1 agonist: transmission inhibition instead of facilitation.
