Although it has been established that pancreatic cholecystokinin (CCK) receptors are coupled to phosphatidylinositol turnover, the events which follow activation of CCK receptors in the central nervous system have not received much attention. In this paper, changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in response to CCK peptides were measured in single cultured rat striatal neuron by fura-2 fluorometry. CCK peptides dosedependently increased [Ca2+]i in a monophasic manner. The order of the potencies of CCK peptides to increase [Ca2+]i was as follows: caerulein > CCK-8 > CCK-8 > CCK-4. The effect of caerulein was completely blocked in a Ca2+ -depleted medium. In addition, omega-conotoxin GVIA completely inhibited the effect of caerulein, while neither nifedipine nor verapamil affected it. Our results indicate that CCK receptors couple to N-type voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels in cultured rat striatal neurons.
