The role of protein kinase C (PKC) in the control of neurotransmitter release from cultured rat cerebellar granule cells was investigated. Release of preloaded [3H]-D-aspartate which is incorporated into synaptic vesicles in this preparation was evoked by electrical field stimulation or elevated KCl. PKC activation by phorbol esters resulted in a large facilitation of field-evoked Ca(2+)-dependent [3H]-D-aspartate release and a lesser enhancement of KCl-stimulated release. Inhibition of PKC by Ro 31-8220 or staurosporine virtually abolished field-evoked release but had no effect on KCl-evoked release. Field-evoked, but not KCl-evoked, synaptic vesicle exocytosis monitored by the fluorescent vesicle probe FM2-10 was inhibited by staurosporine. PKC was not directly modulating neurite Ca2+ channels coupled to release, as Ro 31-8220 did not inhibit these channels. Activation or inhibition of PKC modulated field-evoked plasma membrane depolarization, but had no effect on KCl-evoked depolarization, consistent with a regulation of Na+ or K+ channels activated by field stimulation. No modulation of field-evoked neurite Na+ influx was seen using phorbol esters. Phorbol ester-induced facilitation of field-evoked [3H]-D-aspartate release and neurite Ca2+ entry was non-additive with that produced by the specific K+ channel antagonist dendrotoxin-1, suggesting that PKC modulates transmitter release from field-stimulated cerebellar granule cells by inhibiting a dendrotoxin-1-sensitive K+ channel.
