The effect of the guanine nucleotide GTP on Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum of digitonin-permeabilized islets was investigated. maximal and half-maximal Ca2+ release were observed at 5 microM- and 2.5 microM-GTP respectively. GTP caused a rapid release of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum, which was complete within 1 min. GTP-induced Ca2+ release was structurally specific and required the hydrolysis of GTP. The combination of maximal concentrations of GTP (10 microM) and myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) (10 microM) resulted in an additive effect on Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum. GDP (100 microM), which inhibits GTP-induced Ca2+ release, did not affect IP3-induced Ca2+ release. Furthermore, GTP-induced Ca2+ release was not independent on submicromolar free Ca2+ concentrations, unlike IP3-induced Ca2+ release. These observations suggest that mechanistically GTP-induced Ca2+ release is different from IP3-induced Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum. 相似文献

The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) is an intracellular Ca2+ channel that is for the largest part expressed in the endoplasmic reticulum. Its precise subcellular localization is an important factor for the correct initiation and propagation of Ca2+ signals. The relative position of the IP3Rs, and thus of the IP3-sensitive Ca2+ stores, to mitochondria, nucleus or plasma membrane determines in many cases the physiological consequences of IP3-induced Ca2+ release. Most cell types express more than one IP3R isoform and their subcellular distribution is cell-type dependent. Moreover, it was recently demonstrated that depending on the physiological status of the cell redistribution of IP3Rs and/or of IP3-sensitive Ca2+ stores could occur. This indicates that the cell must be able to regulate not only IP3R expression but also its distribution. The various proteins potentially determining IP3R localization and redistribution will therefore be discussed. 相似文献

In guinea pig chief cells, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) caused release of Ca2+, which was accumulated by ATP, from an endoplasmic reticulum-enriched fraction in both the permeable system and the cell-free system. This was mimicked with the Ca2+ ionophores A23187 and ionomycin on a large scale since an IP3-sensitive Ca2+ pool might be a subset of the Ca2+ ionophore-sensitive Ca2+ pool. The permeable chief cells, but not the cell-free system, retained the ability to react to synthetic cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-OP) with Ca2+ release from an IP3-sensitive pool due to of the non-additive but constant effect in exerting Ca2+ release from the store(s) induced by the combination with IP3 and CCK-OP. The increase in the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration of intact chief cells responding to CCK-OP or the Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin, comprised two components, namely, that by the Ca2+ entry from the extracellular space, and that by the Ca2+ release from the intracellular space(s) (as measured by fura-2). When CCK-OP or ionomycin was added, there was a biphasic response of pepsinogen secretion. An initial but transient response reaching a peak in 5 min was followed by a sustained response reaching a peak in 30 min. The initial pepsinogen release was independent of medium Ca2+, whereas the sustained one was dependent on medium Ca2+. The results suggest that the intracellular Ca2+ release from the store(s), presumably endoplasmic reticulum, may trigger the initial pepsinogen release, whereas the sustained pepsinogen secretion may be caused by acting in concert with the initial response and external Ca2+ entry. On the other hand, the disruption of the microtubular-microfilamentous system by colchicine or cytochalasin D failed to cause the Ca2+ release evoked by either IP3, CCK-OP or Ca2+ ionophores and to cause the CCK-OP- or ionomycin-induced initial pepsinogen release. These findings suggest that the IP3-sensitive pool is the same Ca2+ store which is completely or partially sensitive to CCK-OP and Ca2+ ionophores, respectively, and that the assembly of the cytoskeletal system is involved in initial intracellular Ca2+ metabolism and the following initial pepsinogen release. The assembly of the cytoskeletal system may be an early event in mediating the CCK-OP-induced initial pepsinogen release, perhaps by causing the Ca2+ release from an IP3-sensitive pool of the chief cell. The translocation or attachment of the IP3-sensitive pool brought about by cytoskeletal system might be necessary to cause Ca2+ release after the cell stimulation with CCK-OP. 相似文献

The effects of myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) on Ca2+ uptake and release from isolated adipocyte endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane vesicles were investigated. Effects of IP3 were initially characterized using an endoplasmic reticulum preparation with cytosol present (S1-ER). Maximal and half-maximal effects of IP3 on Ca2+ release from S1-ER vesicles occurred at 20 microM- and 7 microM-IP3, respectively, in the presence of vanadate which prevents the re-uptake of released Ca2+ via the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump. At saturating IP3 concentrations, Ca2+ release in the presence of vanadate was 20% of the exchangeable Ca2+ pool. IP3-induced release of Ca2+ from S1-ER was dependent on extravesicular free Ca2+ concentration with maximal release occurring at 0.13 microM free Ca2+. At 20 microM-IP3 there was no effect on the initial rate of Ca2+ uptake by S1-ER. IP3 promoted Ca2+ release from isolated endoplasmic reticulum vesicles (cytosol not present) to a similar level as compared with S1-ER. Addition of cytosol to isolated endoplasmic reticulum vesicles did not affect IP3-induced Ca2+ release. The endoplasmic reticulum preparation was further fractionated into heavy and light vesicles by differential centrifugation. Interestingly, the heavy fraction, but not the light fraction, released Ca2+ when challenged with IP3. IP3 (20 microM) did not promote Ca2+ release from plasma membrane vesicles and had no effect on the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity or on the initial rate of ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake by these vesicles. These results support the concept that IP3 acts exclusively at the endoplasmic reticulum to promote Ca2+ release. 相似文献

The mechanisms of H2O2-induced Ca2+ release from intracellular stores were investigated in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. It was found that U73122, the selective inhibitor of phospholipase C, could not inhibit the H2O2-induced cytosolic Ca2+ mobilization. No elevation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) was detected in cells exposed to H2O2. By loading mag-Fura-2, a Ca2+ indicator, into intracellular store, the H2O2-induced Ca2+ release from intracellular calcium store was directly observed in the permeabilized cells in a dose-dependent manner. This release can be completely blocked by heparin, a well-known antagonist of IP3 receptor, indicating a direct activation of IP3 receptor on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane by H2O2. It was also found that H2O2 could still induce a relatively small Ca2+ release from internal stores after the Ca2+-ATPase on ER membrane and the Ca2+ uptake to mitochondria were simultaneously inhibited by thapsigargin and carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenyl hydrazone. The later observation suggests that a thapsigargin-insensitive non-mitochondrial intracellular Ca2+ store might be also involved in H2O2-induced Ca2+ mobilization. 相似文献

The effect of mercury (Hg2+), a known nephrotoxicant, on intracellular free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells was explored. [Ca2+]i was measured by using the Ca2+ -sensitive dye fura-2. Hg2+ increased [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC50 of 6 microM. The Ca2+ signal comprised a gradual increase. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ decreased the Hg2+ -induced [Ca2+]i increase by 27%, suggesting that the Ca2+ signal was due to both extracellular Ca2+ influx and store Ca2+ release. In Ca2+ -free medium, the Hg2+ -induced [Ca2+]i increase was nearly abolished by pretreatment with 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor), and conversely, pretreatment with Hg2+ abolished thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ increase. Hg2+ -induced Ca2+ release was not altered by inhibition of phospholipase C but was potentiated by activation of protein kinase C. Overnight treatment with 1 microM Hg2+ did not alter cell proliferation rate and mitochondrial activity, but 10 microM Hg2+ killed all cells. Collectively, this study shows that Hg2+ induced protein kinase C-regulated [Ca2+]i increases in renal tubular cells via releasing store Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum in a manner independent of phospholipase C activity. Hg2+ also caused cytotoxicity at higher concentrations. 相似文献

The effect of miconazole on intracellular calcium levels ([Ca2+]i) in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells was studied using fura-2 as the Ca2+ indicator. Miconazole increased [Ca2+]i dose-dependently at concentrations of 5-100 microM. The [Ca2+]i transient consisted of an initial rise, a gradual decay and an elevated plateau (220 s after addition of the drug). Removal of extracellular Ca2+ partly reduced the miconazole response. Mn2+ quench of fura-2 fluorescence confirmed that miconazole induced Ca2+ influx. The miconazole-sensitive intracellular Ca2+ store overlapped with that sensitive to thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump, because 20 microM miconazole depleted the thapsigargin (1 microM)-sensitive store, and conversely, thapsigargin abolished miconazole-induced internal Ca2+ release. Miconazole (20-50 microM) partly inhibited the capacitative Ca2+ entry induced by 1 microM thapsigargin, measured by depleting intracellular Ca2+ store in Ca(2+)-free medium followed by addition of 10 mM CaCl2. Miconazole induced capacitative Ca2+ entry on its own. Pretreatment with 0.1 mM La3+ partly inhibited 20 microM miconazole-induced Mn2+ quench of fura-2 fluorescence and [Ca2+]i rise, suggesting that miconazole induced Ca2+ influx via two pathways separable by 0.1 mM La3+. Miconazole-induced internal Ca2+ release was not altered when the cytosolic level of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) was substantially inhibited by the phospholipase C inhibitor U73122. 相似文献

Peptides containing Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) immobilized on beads bind to integrins and trigger biphasic, transient increases in intracellular free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) in Madin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cells. The [Ca2+]i increase participates in feedback regulation of integrin-mediated adhesion in these cells. We examined influx pathways and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-mediated Ca2+ store release as possible sources of the [Ca2+]i rise. The RGD-induced [Ca2+]i response requires external Ca2+ (threshold approximately 150 microM), and its magnitude is proportional to extracellular calcium. RGD-induced transients were attenuated by Ca2+ channel inhibitors (Ni2+ and carboxy-amidotriazole) or by plasma membrane depolarization, indicating that Ca2+ influx contributes to the response. Loading cells with heparin reduced the size of RGD-induced [Ca2+]i transients, indicating that IP3-mediated release of Ca2+ from stores may also contribute to the RGD response. Depletion of Ca2+ stores with thapsigargin activated Ni(2+)-sensitive Ca2+ influx that might also be expected to occur after IP3-mediated depletion of stored Ca2-. However, RGD elicited a Ni(2+)-sensitive Ca2+ influx even after pretreatment with thapsigargin, indicating that Ca2+ influx is controlled by a mechanism independent of IP3-mediated store depletion. We conclude that RGD-induced [Ca2+]i transients in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells result primarily from the combination of two distinct mechanisms: 1) IP3-mediated release of intracellular stores, and 2) activation of a Ca2+ influx pathway regulated independently of IP3 and Ca2+ store release. Because Ni2+ and carboxy-amidotriazole inhibited adhesion, whereas store depletion with thapsigargin had little effect, we suggest that the Ca2+ influx mechanism is most important for feedback regulation of integrin-mediated adhesion by increased [Ca2+]i. 相似文献

Using a polyclonal antiserum raised against the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) purified from rat cerebellum, we examined the subcellular distribution of IP3R in canine pancreatic homogenates. IP3R was present primarily in a smooth microsomal fraction (low density), a (high density) rough microsomal (RM) fraction previously shown to consist of highly purified rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) vesicles, and, to a much lesser extent, in an intermediate density microsomal fraction which did not contain markers for RER or plasma membrane. When the RM fraction was subjected to isopycnic centrifugation on sucrose gradients, IP3R equilibrated at high sucrose densities. When ribosomes were extracted from the RM fraction by treatment with puromycin/high salt, IP3R equilibrated at considerably lighter sucrose densities. This shift in density indicated that IP3R which was present in the RM fraction is associated with the RER. Because of a significant amount of IP3R fractionating into the smooth microsomal fraction (which contains plasma membrane, among other "smooth" membranes) and a considerable amount of IP3R present in the nuclear pellet which is also enriched in plasma membrane, we examined the possibility that IP3R may be present in plasma membrane. Further subfractionation of a crude plasma membrane pellet from rat liver revealed that IP3R coenriched with a plasma membrane marker and strongly suggested an association of IP3R with plasma membrane. The issue of why the same receptor is found in multiple biochemically and morphologically distinct membrane fractions is discussed in terms of the possibility of RER subcompartmentalization and IP3R subtypes. The fractionation pattern of IP3R in pancreas is significantly different from that previously reported for calcium (Ca2+)-binding proteins and an intracellular Ca-ATPase (Nigam, S. K. and Towers, T. (1990) J. Cell Biol. 111, 197-200), raising questions as to links between these latter proteins and IP3 sensitive Ca2+ pools. Nevertheless, although the fractionation patterns are different, all of these proteins are clearly associated with the RER. 相似文献

The distribution of hepatic binding sites for the calcium-mobilizing second messenger, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), was analyzed in subcellular fractions of the rat liver by binding studies with [32P]IP3 and compared with the Ca2+ release elicited by IP3 in each fraction. Three major subcellular fractions enriched in plasma membrane, mitochondria, and endoplasmic reticulum were characterized for their 5'-nucleotidase, glucose-6-phosphatase, succinate reductase, and angiotensin II binding activities. The fraction enriched in plasma membrane showed 7- and 20-fold increases in IP3 binding capacity over those enriched in endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria, respectively, and contained a single class of high-affinity binding sites with Kd of 1.7 +/- 1.0 nM and concentration of 239 +/- 91 fmol/mg protein. IP3 binding reached equilibrium in 30 min at 0 degrees C, and the half-time of dissociation was about 15 min. The specificity of the IP3 binding sites was indicated by their markedly lower affinities for inositol 1-phosphate, phytic acid, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate, and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. The Ca2+-releasing activity of IP3 in the subcellular fractions was monitored with the fluorescent indicator, Fura-2. All three fractions showed ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake and rapidly released Ca2+ in response in IP3. The fraction enriched in plasma membrane was the most active in this regard, releasing 174 +/- 67 pmol Ca2+/mg of protein compared to 45 +/- 10 and 48 +/- 7 pmol/mg protein for the fractions enriched in endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria, respectively. These data suggest that the [32P]IP3 binding sites represent specific intracellular receptors through which IP3 mobilizes Ca2+ from a storage site associated (or co-purifying) with the plasma membrane of the rat liver. It is likely that a specialized vesicular system (to which IP3 can bind and trigger the release of Ca2+) is located in close proximity with the plasma membrane and is thus adjacent to the site at which IP3 is produced during stimulation of the hepatocyte by Ca2+-mobilizing hormones. 相似文献

1. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), an intracellular second messenger, has been shown to be the link between activation of several plasma membrane receptors and Ca2+ release from intracellular, membrane-bound compartments. In this study, the postnatal expression of the canine cerebellum IP3 receptor was investigated by biochemical, ligand binding and immunocytochemical methods. 2. Specific receptor sites for IP3 and the extent of IP3-induced Ca2+ release were quantitated in microsomal fractions isolated from cerebella of developing (0-28 day-old) and adult dogs. The IP3 receptor was detected in newborn animals and adult levels were attained within 3-4 weeks. 3. The time-course of IP3 receptor ontogeny paralleled both growth of Purkinje neurons, as indicated by immunofluorescence of cerebellum cortex cryosections with anti-IP3 receptor antibodies, and synaptogenesis, as judged by Western blotting of the microsomal fractions with anti-synaptophysin antibodies. 相似文献

In the past few years, intracellular organelles, such as the endoplasmic reticulum, the nucleus and the mitochondria, have emerged as key determinants in the generation and transduction of Ca2+ signals of high spatio-temporal complexity. Little is known about the Golgi apparatus, despite the fact that Ca2+ within its lumen controls essential processes, such as protein processing and sorting. We report the direct monitoring of the [Ca2+] in the Golgi lumen ([Ca2+]Golgi) of living HeLa cells, using a specifically targeted Ca2+-sensitive photoprotein. With this probe, we show that, in resting cells, [Ca2+]Golgi is approximately 0.3 mM and that Ca2+ accumulation by the Golgi has properties distinct from those of the endoplasmic reticulum (as inferred by the sensitivity to specific inhibitors). Upon stimulation with histamine, an agonist coupled to the generation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), a large, rapid decrease in [Ca2+]Golgi is observed. The Golgi apparatus can thus be regarded as a bona fide IP3-sensitive intracellular Ca2+ store, a notion with major implications for the control of organelle function, as well as for the generation of local cytosolic Ca2+ signals. 相似文献

The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-binding site in adrenal cortical cells is distinct from the endoplasmic reticulum 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The distribution of binding sites for the calcium-mobilizing second messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) was investigated in subcellular fractions of bovine adrenal cortex. The [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3-binding capacity was enriched in the microsomal fraction, which contained a single class of high affinity binding sites with a Kd of 21.6 +/- 3.0 nM. The specific [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding appeared to be sharply pH dependent and was inhibited by millimolar concentrations of ATP. Upon fractionation of microsomes on sucrose density gradient there was a clearcut separation of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor-containing fractions from those enriched in specific endoplasmic reticulum markers such as sulfatase C activity or RNA content. The microsomes enriched in Ins(1,4,5)P3-binding sites were of lower density than the endoplasmic reticulum and co-purified partly with the plasma membrane. In addition, Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive 45Ca2+ uptake into the microsomes was maximal in the lighter fractions. This distinction between Ins(1,4,5)P3-binding sites and endoplasmic reticulum-derived microsomes was confirmed upon fractionation according to their electrophoretic mobilities by free flow electrophoresis. These results indicate that in adrenal cortical cells, the source of Ca2+ mobilized by Ins(1,4,5)P3 upon stimulation with an agonist is not located in the endoplasmic reticulum. Our data support the hypothesis that a specialized vesicular organelle, distinct from endoplasmic reticulum and in close apposition with the plasma membrane, is involved in intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis. 相似文献

Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-induced calcium release from canine aortic sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-induced calcium release from canine aortic smooth muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles was examined using the calcium indicator antipyrylazo III. Calcium release was initiated by addition of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) to aortic vesicles 7 min after initiation of ATP-supported calcium uptake. Half-maximal calcium release occurred at 1 microM IP3, with maximal calcium release amounting to 25 +/- 2% of the intravesicular calcium (n = 12, 9 preparations). Ruthenium red (10-20 microM), which has been reported to block IP3-induced calcium release from skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum, did not inhibit aortic IP3-induced calcium release. Elevation of Mg2+ concentration from 0.06 to 7.8 mM inhibited aortic IP3-induced calcium release 75%, which contrasts with the Mg2+-insensitive IP3-induced calcium release from platelet reticular membranes. The IP3-dependence of aortic calcium release suggested that Mg2+ acted as a noncompetitive inhibitor. Thus, aortic sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles contain an IP3-sensitive calcium pathway which is inhibited by millimolar concentrations of Mg2+, but which is not inhibited by Ruthenium red and so differs from the previously described IP3-sensitive calcium pathways in skeletal muscle and platelet reticular membranes. 相似文献

Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) binding to, and Ca2+ uptake and release by plasma membrane- and endoplasmic reticulum-enriched fractions of rat liver were measured after continuous Escherichia coli endotoxin (ET) administration in vivo. IP3 binding to both fractions was significantly reduced by ET treatment. This was associated with decreased Ca2+ uptake and impaired IP3-dependent Ca2+ release. A decrease of 5'-nucleotidase specific activity of plasma membrane-enriched fraction was also observed in ET treated rats. The results suggest that previously observed impairments in the ability of hepatocytes to mobilize Ca2+, to activate glycogen phosphorylase and to respond--when saponin permeabilized--by Ca2+ release upon IP3 addition during chronic endotoxemia are due to alterations in both IP3 binding to the subcellular fractions that are imputed to be targets of IP3, and a decrease in the size of IP3-sensitive pool of releasable Ca2+. 相似文献

IP3-induced Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of islets is believed to be a key intracellular event in glucose-induced insulin secretion. Calmodulin was shown to increase ATP-dependent Ca2+ steady-state and inhibit by 57.2% IP3-induced Ca2+ mobilization from the ER. Conversely, the calmodulin antagonist, N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphtalene sulfonamide (W-7), induced Ca2+ release from the ER. The combination of W-7 (100 microM) and IP3 (10 microM), resulted in a greater release of Ca2+ from the ER than either W-7 or IP3 alone. W-7 was shown not to affect the structural integrity of the ER. Our results suggest that IP3-induced Ca2+ release from the ER is regulated by a calmodulin-dependent process. 相似文献

Mitochondria suppress local feedback activation of inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate receptors by Ca2+. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The concerted action of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and Ca2+ on the IP3 receptor Ca2+ release channel (IP3R) is a fundamental step in the generation of cytosolic Ca2+ oscillations and waves, which underlie Ca2+ signaling in many cells. Mitochondria appear in close association with regions of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) enriched in IP3R and are particularly responsive to IP3-induced increases of cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]c). To determine whether feedback regulation of the IP3R by released Ca2+ is modulated by mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake, the interactions between ER and mitochondrial Ca2+ pools were examined by fluorescence imaging of compartmentalized Ca2+ indicators in permeabilized hepatocytes. IP3 decreased luminal ER Ca2+ ([Ca2+]ER), and this was paralleled by an increase in mitochondrial matrix Ca2+ ([Ca2+]m) and activation of Ca2+-sensitive mitochondrial metabolism. Remarkably, the decrease in [Ca2+]ER evoked by submaximal IP3 was enhanced when mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake was blocked with ruthenium red or uncoupler. Moreover, subcellular regions that were relatively deficient in mitochondria demonstrated greater sensitivity to IP3 than regions of the cell with a high density of mitochondria. These data demonstrate that Ca2+ uptake by the mitochondria suppresses the local positive feedback effects of Ca2+ on the IP3R, giving rise to subcellular heterogeneity in IP3 sensitivity and IP3R excitability. Thus, mitochondria can play an important role in setting the threshold for activation and establishing the subcellular pattern of IP3-dependent [Ca2+]c signaling. 相似文献

Linoleamide is an endogenous lipid that has been shown to induce sleep in cats, rats and humans. However, its physiological function remains unclear. In this study the effect of linoleamide on cytosolic free Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) tubular cells was examined, by using fura-2 as a Ca2+ probe. In a concentration-dependent manner, linoleamide induced increases in [Ca2+]i between 10-500 microM with an EC50 of 20 microM. The signal comprised a slow rise and a persistent phase, and was a result of internal Ca2+ release and external Ca2+ influx because it was partly inhibited by external Ca2+ removal. In Ca2+-free medium, depletion of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ store with 1 microM thapsigargin abolished 100 microM linoleamide-induced internal Ca2+ release, and conversely, pretreatment with linoleamide prevented thapsigargin from releasing internal Ca2+. This demonstrates that the internal source of linoleamide-induced [Ca2+]i increase is located in the endoplasmic reticulum. This discharge of internal Ca2+ caused capacitative Ca2+ entry because after incubation with 100 microM linoleamide in Ca2+-free medium for 8 min readmission of 3 mM CaCl2 induced increases in [Ca2+]i. After the formation of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) was blocked by the phospholipase C inhibitor U73122 (1 microM), linoleamide still induced an increase in [Ca2+]i but the shape of the increase was altered. Similar results were found for another sleep-inducing lipid 9,10-octadecenoamide. Together, the present study shows that the endogenous sleep-inducing lipid linoleamide was able to cause significant increases in [Ca2+]i in renal tubular cells, by releasing the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ store and triggering capacitative Ca2+ entry in a manner independent of IP3. 相似文献

IP(3)-dependent Ca(2+) signaling controls a myriad of cellular processes in higher eukaryotes and similar signaling pathways are evolutionarily conserved in Plasmodium, the intracellular parasite that causes malaria. We have reported that isolated, permeabilized Plasmodium chabaudi, releases Ca(2+) upon addition of exogenous IP(3). In the present study, we investigated whether the IP(3) signaling pathway operates in intact Plasmodium falciparum, the major disease-causing human malaria parasite. P. falciparum-infected red blood cells (RBCs) in the trophozoite stage were simultaneously loaded with the Ca(2+) indicator Fluo-4/AM and caged-IP(3). Photolytic release of IP(3) elicited a transient Ca(2+) increase in the cytosol of the intact parasite within the RBC. The intracellular Ca(2+) pools of the parasite were selectively discharged, using thapsigargin to deplete endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca(2+) and the antimalarial chloroquine to deplete Ca(2+) from acidocalcisomes. These data show that the ER is the major IP(3)-sensitive Ca(2+) store. Previous work has shown that the human host hormone melatonin regulates P. falciparum cell cycle via a Ca(2+)-dependent pathway. In the present study, we demonstrate that melatonin increases inositol-polyphosphate production in intact intraerythrocytic parasite. Moreover, the Ca(2+) responses to melatonin and uncaging of IP(3) were mutually exclusive in infected RBCs. Taken together these data provide evidence that melatonin activates PLC to generate IP(3) and open ER-localized IP(3)-sensitive Ca(2+) channels in P. falciparum. This receptor signaling pathway is likely to be involved in the regulation and synchronization of parasite cell cycle progression. 相似文献

The mechanism by which agonist-evoked cytosolic Ca2+ signals are terminated has been investigated. We measured the Ca2+ concentration inside the endoplasmic reticulum store of pancreatic acinar cells and monitored the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration by whole-cell patch-clamp recording of the Ca2+-sensitive currents. When the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration was clamped at the resting level by a high concentration of a selective Ca2+ buffer, acetylcholine evoked the usual depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores, but without increasing the Ca2+-sensitive currents. Removal of acetylcholine allowed thapsigargin-sensitive Ca2+ reuptake into the stores, and this process stopped when the stores had been loaded to the pre-stimulation level. The apparent rate of Ca2+ reuptake decreased steeply with an increase in the Ca2+ concentration in the store lumen and it is this negative feedback on the Ca2+ pump that controls the Ca2+ store content. In the absence of a cytoplasmic Ca2+ clamp, acetylcholine removal resulted in a rapid return of the elevated cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration to the pre-stimulation resting level, which was attained long before the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ store had been completely refilled. We conclude that control of Ca2+ reuptake by the Ca2+ concentration inside the intracellular store allows precise Ca2+ signal termination without interfering with store refilling. 相似文献
