| Abstract | n-Hexanal (hexanal), a straight-chain six-carbon aldehyde, is mainly present in plants. Hexanal strongly affects the release of dopamine from rat striatal slices and rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells. In this study, we attempted to clarify the mechanism underlying the regulation of dopamine release by hexanal by using PC12 cells, which have the ability to synthesize, store, and release dopamine. The stimulation of PC12 cells with hexanal enhanced dopamine release in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Dopamine release was partially inhibited by pretreatment of the cells with BAPTA-AM, a cell-permeable Ca2+ chelator. In addition, the intracellular Ca2+ concentration was found to slowly increase after hexanal stimulation. Furthermore, the Src tyrosine kinase inhibitor PP2 partially inhibited hexanal-induced dopamine release. However, the levels of phosphorylated proteins decreased after hexanal stimulation. Hexanal stimulated the release of only a small amount of dopamine from reserpine-treated PC12 cells, in which the vesicular dopamine was depleted. These findings suggest that both an increase in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration and the dephosphorylation of phosphorylated proteins might be required for hexanal-stimulated release of dopamine, and that the dopamine released because of hexanal stimulation mainly comes from the dopamine vesicles. This study showed the cellular events that occurred in PC12 cells after stimulation of hexanal. Furthermore, it is important to examine the relationship between the cellular functions and the physiological effects of hexanal on dopamine release. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
