There is evidence that many of the GABA A receptor subunits contain consensus sequence for tyrosine kinase, and phosphorylation may play a key role in ethanol’s regulation of GABA A receptors. Recently, we investigated the effect of chronic exposure of ethanol (CE) on tyrosine kinase phosphorylation and reported that there was an up-regulation in tyrosine kinase phosphorylation of the β 2-and γ 2-subunits and no effect on α 1-subunit of the GABA A receptor in the cultured cortical neurons of mice. In the present study, we have further investigated the effect of chronic intermittent administration of ethanol (CIE) on tyrosine kinase phosphorylation of the GABA A receptor subunits (α 1, β 2, and γ 2) in the mouse cultured cortical neurons by immunoprecipitation and Western blot techniques. We observed that there was an up-regulation in the tyrosine kinase phosphorylation of the GABA A receptor β 2-and γ 2-subunits following CIE exposure, and no effect on α 1-subunit in the cultured cortical neurons of mice. These CIE changes, unlike CE, were not reverted back to the control level following ethanol withdrawal even after 7 days. Acute exposure of ethanol did not cause any change in the tyrosine kinase regulation of the GABA A receptor subunits. In conclusion, the CIE exposure, unlike chronic/acute ethanol exposure, regulates the tyrosine kinase phosphorylation of the selective population of GABA A receptors in a long lasting manner.
