| Abstract | The neurotoxic fragment corresponding to residues 25-35 of the β-amyloid (Aβ) peptide [Aβ-(25-35)] has been shown to exert effects on (+)-[$^{3}$H]5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]-cyclohepten-5,10-imine maleate ([$^{3}$H]MK-801) binding to the cation channel of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. In the present study, we investigated whether the amidated and carboxylic acid C-terminated forms of Aβ-(25-35) [Aβ-(25-35-NH$_{2}$) and Aβ-(25-35-COOH), respectively] exert effects on other excitatory amino acid receptor and cation channel types in rat cortical membranes. Both Aβ-(25-35-NH$_{2}$) and Aβ-(25-35-COOH) gave statistically significant dose-dependent inhibitions of [$^{3}$H]glutamate and [$^{3}$H]glycine binding to the agonist recognition sites of the NMDA receptor. Ten μM Aβ-(25-35-NH$_{2}$) and Aβ-(25-35-COOH) gave 25% and 20% inhibitions of [$^{3}$H]glutamate binding and 75% and 70% inhibitions of [$^{3}$H]glycine binding, respectively. Aβ-(25-35-NH$_{2}$), but not Aβ-(25-35-COOH), gave a small (ca. 17% at 10 μM) statistically significant increase of [$^{3}$H]amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate ([$^{3}$H]AMPA) binding. [$^{3}$H]kainate binding was not significantly affected by either peptide. Similarly, neither peptide affected either the maximal level or EC$_{50}$ value for calcium stimulation of [$^{3}$H]nitrendipine binding. It is concluded that Aβ-(25-35) shows slight affinity for the agonist recognition sites of the NMDA receptor, but not for other excitatory amino acid receptor types or for L-type voltage-dependent calcium channels. |

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.
