Chronic exposure to nicotine has been reported to increase the number
of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) in brain. The mechanism of
up-regulation for the
4
2 AChR subtype, which accounts for the
majority of high affinity nicotine binding in mammalian brain, has
previously been shown to involve a decrease in the rate of
4
2
AChR turnover. Here, we report an investigation of the extent and
mechanism of nicotine-induced up-regulation of
3 AChRs and
7 AChR
subtypes expressed in the human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y.
Up-regulation of human
3 AChRs and
7 AChRs, unlike
4
2
AChRs, requires much higher nicotine concentrations than are
encountered in smokers; the extent of increase of surface AChRs is much
less; and the mechanisms of up-regulation are different than with
4
2 AChRs. The mechanisms of up-regulation may be different for
3 AChRs or
7 AChRs. Chronic treatment with nicotine or
carbamylcholine, but not d-tubocurarine,
mecamylamine, or dihydro-
-erythroidine, induced a
500-600% increase in the number of
3 AChRs but only a 30%
increase in
7 AChRs. Chronic nicotine treatment did not increase
affinity for nicotine or increase the amount of RNA for
3 or
7
subunits. The effect of nicotine on up-regulation of
7 AChRs was
partially blocked by either d-tubocurarine or
mecamylamine. The effect of nicotine treatment on the number of
3
AChRs was only slightly blocked by the antagonists
d-tubocurarine, mecamylamine, or
dihydro-
-erythroidine at concentrations that efficiently block
3
AChR function. Most of the nicotine-induced increase in
3 AChRs was
found to be intracellular. The
3 AChRs, which accumulate intracellularly, were shown to have been previously exposed on the cell
surface by their susceptibility to antigenic modulation. The data
suggest that chronic exposure to nicotine may induce a conformation of
cell surface
3 AChRs that at least in this cell line are
consequently internalized but not immediately destroyed.
