The modulation of Ca2+ currents by neurotransmitters was studied in freshly dissociated rat spinal cord neurons, using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. GABA, baclofen, adenosine, ATP, serotonin, norepinephrine, somatostatin, and dynorphin A inhibited the current through Ca2+ channels in a substantial fraction of cells, while substance P, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, D-ala2,d-leu5-enkephalin, cholecystokinin-8 (sulfated), calcitonin gene-related peptide, angiotensin II, neurotensin, vasopressin, and thyrotropin-releasing hormone had no effect. In the case of baclofen, the inhibition is mediated, at least in part, by a GTP-binding protein. Suppression of Ca2+ current by neurotransmitters may represent a mechanism of presynaptic inhibition in the spinal cord.
