The chemokine fractalkine (CX(3)CL1) is constitutively expressed by central neurons, regulating microglial responses including chenrotaxis, activation, and toxicity. Through the activation of its own specific receptor, CX(3)CR1, CX(3)CL1 exerts both neuroprotection against glutamate (Glu) toxicity and neuromodulation of the glutamatergic synaptic transmission in hippocampal neurons. Using cultured hippocampal neuronal cell preparations, obtained from CX(3)CR1(-/-) (CX(3)CR1(GFP/GFP)) mice, we report that these same effects are mimicked by exposing neurons to a medium conditioned with CX(3)CL1-treated mouse microglial cell line BV2 (BV2-st medium). Furthermore, CX(3)CL1-induced neuroprotection from Ght toxicity is mediated through the adenosine receptor 1 (AR(1)), being blocked by neuronal cell preparations treatment with 1,3-dipropyl-8-cyclopentylxanthine (DPCPX), a specific inhibitor of AR,, and min-ticked by both adenosine and the specific AR, agonist 2-chloro-N6-cyclopentyladenosine. Similarly, experiments from whole-cell patch-clamped hippocampal neurons in culture, obtained from CX(3)CL1 mice, show that CX(3)CL1-induced depression of a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid- (ANVA-) type Ght receptor-mediated current (AMEPA-current), is associated with AR, activity being blocked by DPCPX and mimicked by adenosine. Furthermore, BV2-st medium induced a similar AMPAcurrent depression in CX3CRIGFPIGFP hippocampal neurons and this depression was again blocked by DPCPX. We also report that CX(3)CL1 induced a significant release of adenosine from microglial BV2 cells, as measured by HPLC analysis. We demonstrate that (i) CX(3)CL1, along with AR(1), are critical players for counteracting Glu-mediated neurotoxicity in the brain and (ii) AR(1) mediates neuromodulatory action of CX(3)CL1 on hippocampal neurons.
