The effect of prolonged (72 h) ethanol (200 mM) exposure on the labeling of L-type (using tritiated PN 200-110) and N-type (using iodinated omega-conotoxin) voltage-dependent calcium channels was investigated in cultured NG 108-15 cells. In undifferentiated cells ethanol produced an 80% increase in PN 200-110 Bmax and no changes in omega-conotoxin binding. Differentiation had a profound effect on the response of cells to ethanol, which in differentiated neuron-like cells decreased omega-conotoxin binding (-53.5%) leaving PN 200-110 labeling of L-type channels unaffected. The effect was time dependent and reversible upon ethanol withdrawal. The decreased omega-conotoxin binding was accompanied by a reduced ability of omega-conotoxin to inhibit K+ -stimulated calcium uptake. The results demonstrate that in cultured NG 108-15 cells ethanol differentially affects DHP and omega-conotoxin-sensitive, voltage-dependent calcium channels and that the effect is also modulated by differentiation of the cell to a neuronal phenotype.
