The effects of a novel AMPA receptor potentiator (LY392098) on the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) were examined in primary neuron culture. The addition of either AMPA or LY392098 to cortical neurons elicited a time and concentration dependent increase in mRNA encoding BDNF. Moreover, co-addition of subeffective concentrations of AMPA (1 muM) and LY392098 (1 muM) resulted in dramatic increases in both BDNF mRNA (> 25-fold) and protein (similar to7-fold) levels, whilst no changes in either NT-3 or NT-4 mRNA were detected. More modest (similar to1.5-2.5-fold) elevations in BDNF mRNA and protein expression were also produced by combinations of AMPA and LY392098 in cerebellar granule cell neurons. In contrast, AMPA and LY392098, either alone or in combination, did not elevate BDNF mRNA levels in primary astroglial cultures. Maximum elevations in BDNF mRNA and protein were produced by 6-12 h of AMPA receptor activation 1-3 h of AMPA receptor activation were required to elevate BDNF mRNA levels. AMPA receptor-mediated increases in BDNF mRNA and protein were abolished by the AMPA antagonist, NBQX, but were unaffected by the NMDA antagonist, MK-801. In cortical neuron cultures, activation of both L-type Ca+2 channels and mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases contribute to AMPA receptor-mediated increases in BDNF mRNA. The ability of LY392098 to increase the expression of BDNF in primary neuron culture indicates this and related biarylpropylsulfonamides may be useful in the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders.
