Effects of Ca2+ on [3H]5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) uptake into rat cortical synaptosomes were studied. The uptake was enhanced in the presence of Ca2+ in Krebs-Ringer medium and the uptake at 0.3-5 mM Ca2+ was 2.4-2.7 times greater than that observed in the absence of Ca2+. The maximal increase at the concentration of 1 mM Ca2+ was achieved after 2 min preincubation. Ca(2+)-dependent enhancement of the [3H]5-HT uptake reflected an increase in Vmax of the uptake process. However, Kd and Bmax values for [3H]paroxetine were not significantly changed in the presence of 1 mM Ca2+ compared with Ca(2+)-free condition. On the other hand, uptake was still enhanced after synaptosomes were washed with Ca(2+)-free after preincubation with 1 mM Ca2+. Staurosporine (a protein kinase C inhibitor) and wortmannin (a myosin light chain kinase inhibitor) did not affect Ca(2+)-dependent enhancement of the uptake, whereas 1-[N,O-bis(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-N-methyl-L-tyrosyl]-4-phenylpiperazin e (KN-62, an inhibitor of Ca2+ /calmodulin-dependent kinase II) and N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide hydrochloride (W-7, a calmodulin antagonist) significantly reduced it. Moreover, L-type, but not P- or N-type, voltage-dependent Ca(2+)-channel blockers suppressed enhancement of the uptake. These results indicate that Ca(2+)-dependent enhancement of [3H]5-HT uptake is mediated by activation of calmodulin-dependent protein kinases, suggesting a possibility of calmodulin-dependent regulation of in vivo 5-HT uptake.
