    We investigated the role of Na(+)-K(+)-Cl(-) co-transporter isoform 1 (NKCC1) and reversal of Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX(rev)) in glutamate-mediated excitotoxicity in oligodendrocytes obtained from rat spinal cords (postnatal day 6-8). An immunocytochemical characterization showed that these cultures express NKCC1 and Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger isoforms 1, 2, and 3 (NCX1, NCX2, NCX3). Exposing the cultures to alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) plus cyclothiazide (CTZ) led to a transient rise in intracellular (), which was followed by a sustained overload, NKCC1 phosphorylation, and a NKCC1-mediated Na(+) influx. In the presence of a specific AMPA receptor inhibitor 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2, 3-dione (CNQX), the AMPA/CTZ failed to elicit any changes in . The AMPA/CTZ-induced sustained rise led to mitochondrial Ca(2+) accumulation, release of cytochrome c from mitochondria, and cell death. The AMPA/CTZ-elicited increase, mitochondrial damage, and cell death were significantly reduced by inhibiting NKCC1 or NCX(rev). These data suggest that in cultured oligodendrocytes, activation of AMPA receptors leads to NKCC1 phosphorylation that enhances NKCC1-mediated Na(+) influx. The latter triggers NCX(rev) and NCX(rev)-mediated overload and compromises mitochondrial function and cellular viability.
