Abstract
It is well known that long-term heavy ethanol intake causes alcoholic dementia, cerebellar degeneracy or Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome and aggravates the conditions of many other neuro-psychotic disorders. Recently it is indicated that protein kinase C (PKC) plays an important role in the action of ethanol and in the neuro-adaptational mechanisms under chronic ethanol exposure. In order to investigate the effect of ethanol on PKC isoforms levels within the range of not showing any cytotoxicity, B103 neuroblastoma cell line trans-formed from murine central nervous system was employed and western blot analysis was carried out by using PKC isoform-specific antibodies. The changes of PKC-$\alpha$, ${\gamma}$, $\varepsilon$ and ζ level in the range of ethanol concentration 50∼200 mM were examined at the exposure time 1, 2, 8, 18 and 24 hrs in both cytosolic and membrane fraction. A typical ethanol concentration inducing the PKC isozymes was 100 mM, and the transforming time ranges of PKC isozymes could be considered as two different parts to each PKC isoform such as initial (0∼2 hrs) and prolonged (8∼24 hrs) stages. PKC-${\gamma}$ and PKC-$\varepsilon$ were clearly induced during the prolonged stages in cytosol at 18 hrs, and membrane fraction at 8 hrs and 18 hrs, respectively. On the other hand the PKC-$\alpha$ and PKC-ζ isozymes were largely induced in the prolonged stages at 18 hrs and 24 hrs, where the PKC-$\alpha$ isozyme was induced in both cytosol and membrane fractions at 200 mM ethanol concentration while the PKC-ζ isozyme was induced only in the membrane fractions at 100,200 mM. At 200 mM ethanol concentration of 24 hrs incubation in the prolonged stage, the PKC-$\alpha$ was maximally induced by 150% of the control values whereas the PKC-${\gamma}$ was significantly decreased to 47% of the control values. These results suggest that 100∼200 mM ethanol may modulate the signal transduction and neurotransmitter release in the central nervous system through the regulation of PKC isozymes, and the action of these isoforms may act differently each other in the cell.
