Abstract
Chlorpromazine (CPZ) or the functionally related N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide caused a rapid decrease in binding of 125I-epidermal growth factor (EGF) that was due to a specific decrease in receptor affinity. The decrease in ligand binding was observed when cells were exposed to CPZ at either 4 degrees C or 37 degrees C but a rapid reversal of CPZs effects was observed only during a 37 degrees C incubation. In contrast to the decrease in 125I-EGF binding seen after short (30 min) accumulations at 37 degrees C, the presence of CPZ caused a large increase in the amount of cell-associated radioactivity after longer periods (over 1 h) of accumulation. Although the CPZ-induced effect was similar in extent to that observed after the addition of methylamine, the increased accumulation after CPZ was probably not due to a nonspecific ionic neutralization of the lysosomes. CPZ did not lower EGF binding in cultures chronically treated with a phorbol ester to reduce protein kinase C levels, although the CPZ-induced increases in accumulation were still observed in cells with reduced protein kinase C activity.
