Voltage-gated Ca2+ (Ca-V) channels couple membrane depolarization to Ca2+ influx, triggering a range of Ca2+-dependent cellular processes. CaV channels are, therefore, crucial in shaping neuronal activity and function, depending on their individual temporal and spatial properties. Furthermore, many neurotransmitters and drugs that act through G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), modulate neuronal activity by altering the expression, trafficking, or function of CaV channels. GPCR-dependent mechanisms that downregulate CaV channel expression levels are observed in many neurons but are, by comparison, less studied. Herewe showthat the growth hormone secretagogue receptor type 1a (GHSR), a GPCR, can inhibit the forwarding trafficking of severalCaV subtypes, even in the absence of agonist. This constitutive form of GPCR inhibition of CaV channels depends on the presence of a Ca-V beta subunit. Ca-V beta subunits displace Ca-V alpha(1) subunits from the endoplasmic reticulum. The actions of GHSR on CaV channels trafficking suggest a role for this signaling pathway in brain areas that control food intake, reward, and learning and memory.
