Output neurons of the striosome compartment of the striatum are one of the important components the neural pathway responsible for development and execution of stereotyped behaviors. They are exclusively equipped with μ-opioid receptors in the striatum. We found that prior blockade of protein kinase C (PKC) augments the suppressive effect of μ-opioid receptors (MORs) on the GABAergic inhibitory postsynaptic current (IPSC) in the MOR-rich striosomes of the striatum. Interestingly, Striatal medium spiny neurons have muscarinic acetylcholine receptor subtypes M1 and M4, among which M1 activates the phosphoinositide signaling pathway yielding PKC. We examined whether acetylcholine regulates MOR’s effects on presynaptic IPSC by binding to the M1 receptor, and found that IPSC suppression by the MOR agonist DAMGO was significantly augmented and prolonged by the PKC inhibitor chelerythrine and attenuated by the PKC activator PDBu. These results suggest that PKC activity modulates MOR’s effect via muscarinic receptors in the striosomes.
