摘要

Voltage-activated Ca2+ channels comprise complexes of a pore-forming Ca-V alpha(1) and auxiliary subunits Ca-V beta, Ca-V alpha(2)delta and sometimes Ca-V gamma. The intracellular Ca-V beta subunit assists in trafficking and surface expression of the Ca-V alpha(1) subunit and can modulate biophysical properties of the Ca2+ channel. Four genes, Ca-V beta 1-4, exist which confer different properties to Ca2+ currents through the various Ca-V alpha(1) subunits. Ca2+ currents in cochlear inner (IHC) and outer hair cells (OHC) serving synaptic transmission flow predominantly through the L-type CaVa1 subunit Ca(V)1.3, but associated Ca-V beta subunits are unknown. In the organ of Corti, we found mRNA and protein for all four Ca-V beta subunits including Ca-V beta 2, but clear assignment of the Ca-V beta 1-4 immunolabelling with hair cells or nerve fibers was difficult. We analyzed Ca-V beta 3 knockout (Ca-V beta 3(-/-))and Ca-V beta 4 mutant mice (Ca-V beta 4(lh/lh)), which had normal hearing. Recording voltage-activated Ba2+ currents from hair cells of the two mouse models revealed distinct significant changes of cell size and Ba2+ current properties compared with their wild-type controls. Neonatal Ca-V beta 4(lh/lh) IHCs showed reduced membrane capacitances and changes in the voltage dependence and kinetics of current activation, whereas mature IHCs had reduced peak currents compared with Ca-V beta 4(wt), altogether indicating the presence of Ca-V beta 4 in IHCs. Ba2+ currents of Ca-V beta 3(-/-) OHCs showed largely reduced amplitudes, changes in the voltage dependence and kinetics of Ba2+ current activation, and increased inactivation compared with Ca-V beta 3(wt), pointing to a role of Ca-V beta 3 for OHCs. These results indicate that neither Ca-V beta 3 nor Ca-V beta 4 are indispensable for hair cell Ca2+ currents but contribute to the overall current properties.
