Enkephalin metabolism by microglial aminopeptidase N (CD13)
Rat microglia in culture showed a high capacity to degrade neuropeptides compared with other glial cells. Leu-enkephalin was readily hydrolyzed to free tyrosine and Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu. Inhibition experiments and immunostaining revealed that aminopeptidase N (CD13) on the surface of microglia was responsible for enkephalin cleavage. Endopeptidase-24.11 ("enkephalinase"), angiotensin-converting enzyme, or carboxypeptidases could not be detected on microglia. Aminopeptidase N activity in microglia was considerably higher than in rat peripheral monocytes and macrophages, which both also exhibited low endopeptidase 24.11 activities. Activity of aminopeptidase N was upregulated by culture of microglia on astrocytes and down-regulated by exposure of microglia to lipopolysaccharide. The occurrence of aminopeptidase N on microglia is in line with the view that they originate from the monocytic lineage.
