Neuronal differentiation involves both morphological and
electrophysiological changes, which depend on calcium influx.
Voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs) represent a major route for
calcium entry into neurons. The recently cloned low-voltage-activated
T-type calcium channels (T-channels) are the first class of VGCCs
functionally expressed in most developing neurons, as well as in
neuroblastoma cell lines, but their roles in neuronal development are
yet unknown. Here, we document the part played by T-channels in
neuronal differentiation. Using NG108-15, a cell line that
recapitulates early steps of neuronal differentiation, we demonstrate
that blocking T-currents by nickel, mibefradil, or the endogenous
cannabinoid anandamide prevents neuritogenesis without affecting
neurite outgrowth. Similar results were obtained using antisense
oligodeoxynucleotides directed against the 1H T-channel subunit.
Furthermore, we describe that inhibition of 1H T-channel
activity impairs concomitantly, but independently, both
high-voltage-activated calcium channel expression and
neuritogenesis, providing strong evidence for a dual role of T-channels
in both morphological and electrical changes at early stages of
neuronal differentiation.
