Abstract:
:Voltage-gated Ca2+ (CaV) channels couple membrane depolarization to Ca2+ influx, triggering a range of Ca2+-dependent cellular processes. CaV channels are, therefore, crucial in shaping neuronal activity and function, depending on their individual temporal and spatial properties. Furthermore, many neurotransmitters and drugs that act through G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), modulate neuronal activity by altering the expression, trafficking, or function of CaV channels. GPCR-dependent mechanisms that downregulate CaV channel expression levels are observed in many neurons but are, by comparison, less studied. Here we show that the growth hormone secretagogue receptor type 1a (GHSR), a GPCR, can inhibit the forwarding trafficking of several CaV subtypes, even in the absence of agonist. This constitutive form of GPCR inhibition of CaV channels depends on the presence of a CaVβ subunit. CaVβ subunits displace CaVα1 subunits from the endoplasmic reticulum. The actions of GHSR on CaV channels trafficking suggest a role for this signaling pathway in brain areas that control food intake, reward, and learning and memory.
