To determine the effects of the aging process on the regulation of phosphoinositide signal transduction pathway, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor-associated parameters were examined in the striatum of brains removed from young (3 months), adult (12 months) and senescent (25 months) male Fischer 344 rats. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate content was significantly increased (P≤0.01) at 25 months of age compared to 3 and 12 months. No age-related differences in phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis were found in striatal slices after stimulation with trans-(1S,3R)-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylate, a metabotropic glutamatergic receptor agonist. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis following stimulation with (R,S)-α-amino-3-hydroxyl-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid, a glutamatergic/quisqualate agonist, showed a significantly increased accumulation of net [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in senescent striatum whereas the muscarinic cholinergic agonist carbachol induced highest response in the young striatum. In each case, agonist-stimulated response was significantly reduced in the presence of the receptor-associated antagonist. The density of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor in the particulate membranes derived from 12- and 25-month-old rats was decreased (P<0.01) compared to that from young rats. Binding affinity of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor for [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate was increased (P=0.05) only at 25 months of age when compared with 3 months of age. Incubation of partially purified inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor with striatal cytosol in the presence of Ca2+ showed an age-dependent susceptibility to proteolytic degradation of this receptor that was completely inhibited by calpain I inhibitor peptide. Paradoxically, the quantity of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor mRNA-encoding transcripts was increased (P≤0.01) at 25 months of age, suggesting an age-dependent change in either transcriptional rate, stability or processing of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor mRNAs in the striatum. The activity of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate3-kinase decreased (P≤0.01) with age whereas the activity of soluble inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5-phosphatase was highest at 3 months but significantly decreased at 12 months of age. However, the activity of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5-phosphatase remained unchanged between 12 and 25 months of age, suggesting possible developmental modulation of the activity of the enzyme. Taken together with the established `cross-talk' between signal transduction systems, the present data suggest that molecular/cellular changes in striatal inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate/Ca2+ signal transduction pathway along with neuronal cell loss may contribute to aging-related decrease in striatal functioning.
