ABSTRACT
γ-Aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABAARs) mediate primarily inhibitory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. Following fast-paced activation, which provides the selective flow of mainly chloride (Cl-) and less bicarbonate (HCO3-) ions via the pore, these receptors undergo desensitization that is paradoxically prevented by the process of their recovery, referred to as resensitization. To clarify the mechanism of resensitization, we used the cortical synaptoneurosomes from the rat brain and HEK 293FT cells. Here, we describe the effect of γ-phosphate analogues (γPAs) that mimic various states of ATP hydrolysis on GABAAR-mediated Cl- and HCO3- fluxes in response to the first and repeated application of the agonist. We found that depending on the presence of bicarbonate, opened and desensitized states of the wild or chimeric GABAARs had different sensitivities to γPAs. This study presents the evidence that recovery of neuronal Cl- and HCO3- concentrations after desensitization is accompanied by a change in the intracellular ATP concentration via ATPase performance. The transition between the desensitization and resensitization states was linked to changes in both conformation and phosphorylation. In addition, the chimeric ß3 isoform did not exhibit the desensitization of the GABAAR-mediated Cl- influx but only the resensitization. These observations lend a new physiological significance to the ß3 subunit in the manifestation of GABAAR resensitization.
