The involvement of the GABA-benzodiazepine receptor complex in the regulation of melanotropin secretion has been investigated using perfused frog neurointermediate lobes. The GABAAagonist 3-amino-1 propane sulfonic acid mimicked the biphasic effect of GABA on α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone secretion: a brief stimulation followed by an inhibition of melanotropin secretion. The GABAAantagonist SR 95531 (10−4M) inhibited both stimulation and inhibition of α-melanocyte-stimulatmg hormone release induced by GABA (10−4M). Since the inhibitory effect of baclofen (10−4M) was partially antagonized by SR 95531 (10−4M). it appears that the GABAergic control of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone release is mainly achieved through activation of GABAAreceptors. GABA-induced stimulation of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone release was inhibited by tetrodotoxin (10−5M), an Na--channel blocker, or nifedipine (10−5M). a voltage-dependent Ca2+-channel blocker, suggesting that Na+and Ca2+ions are involved in the stimulatory phase of GABA action. Only central-type benzodiazepine binding site agonists such as clonazepam (10−4M) modified α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone release. In fact, clonazepam (10−5to 10−5M) led to a dose-dependent potentiation of both GABA-induced stimulation and inhibition of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone release. This potentiating effect was antagonized by the GABAAantagonist SR 95531 (10−4M) or by the central-type benzodiazepine binding site antagonist flumazenil (10−4M). whereas picrotoxin (10−4M) abolished only the stimulatory phase. In contrast, the peripheral-type benzodiazepine binding site agonist Ro 5-4864 (10−4M) was unable to potentiate the effects of GABA on α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone secretion.To investigate the possible involvement of endogenous benzodiazepine binding site ligands in the control of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone secretion, a radioimmunoassay for the octadecaneuropeptide, a putative endogenous benzodiazepine binding site inhibitor, has been developed. High concentrations of octadecaneuropeptide-like material were found in neurointermediate lobe extracts, suggesting that this peptide may act as a regulator of the GABA-benzodiazepine receptor complex. The administration of synthetic octadecaneuropeptide (10−6to 10−4M) to perifused neurointermediate lobes markedly reduced the effects of GABA on α-melanocyte-stimulatmg hormone release. In addition, flumazenil (10−4M) reversed the inhibitory action of octadecaneuropeptide on GABA-induced modulation of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone release.Taken together, these results indicate that GABA acts on frog melanotrophs through a GABA receptor complex including a GABAArecognition site, a Cl-channel and a central-type benzodiazepine binding site. Activation of benzodiazepine receptors has the potential to modulate the effects of GABA on α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone secretion, the final response depending on the properties of the benzodiazepine-receptor ligand used: central-type benzodiazepine binding site agonists cause an enhancement of the response to GABA, whereas the endogenous peptidergic ligand octadecaneuropeptide attenuates the action of GABA.
