The possibility that protein kinase C (PKC) could control the activity of L-type Ca2+ channels in A7r5 vascular smooth muscle-derived cells in the absence of agonist stimulation was investigated using the patch-clamp technique. Consistent with the possibility that L-type Ca2+ channels are maximally phosphorylated by PKC under these conditions, we show that 1) activation of PKC with the phorbol ester phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate was ineffective in modulating whole cell and single-channel currents, 2) inhibition of PKC activity with staurosporine or chelerythrine inhibited channel activity, 3) inhibition of protein phosphatases by intracellular dialysis of okadaic acid did not affect whole cell currents, and 4) the inhibitory effect of staurosporine was absent in the presence of okadaic acid. The inhibition of Ca2+ currents by PKC inhibitors was due to a decrease in channel availability and long open events, whereas the voltage dependence of the open probability and the single-channel conductance were not affected. The evidence suggests that in resting, nonstimulated A7r5 cells there is a high level of PKC activity that modulates the gating of L-type Ca2+ channels.
