Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-treated macrophages exhibited a two-fold increase in the rate of 45Ca++ efflux and over a three-fold increase in the size of the exchangeable calcium pool, resulting in almost a seven-fold increase in the slow phase of calcium efflux. The calcium antagonist 8-(N,N-diethylamino) octyl 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate hydrochloride (TMB-8) by itself did not affect calcium efflux in macrophages; but abolished the PMA-induced increase in the rate of calcium efflux. The divalent cationphore A23187 increased the rate constant of the fast phase of calcium efflux two-fold when applied alone or when applied with PMA. These effects might be linked to ionophore enhancement and TMB-8 inhibition of PMA-induced macrophage chemotaxis and spreading (previously reported in Cell Calcium 3:503-514 and Cancer Research 43:3385-3391). No change in calcium efflux was observed if cells were exposed to PMA only during the efflux experiment suggesting that a prolonged exposure to PMA is required to elicit changes in calcium flux. Increased 45Ca++ remained in treated cells at each time point perhaps reflecting the PMA-induced increase in exchangeable calcium. 相似文献

Inhibition of dibutyryl cyclic AMP induced steroidogenesis in rat adrenocortical cells by the putative calcium antagonist TMB-8 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A significant proportion of the steroidogenic response of isolated rat adrenocortical cells to dibutyryl cyclic AMP does not require extracellular calcium, and this component is profoundly depressed by low concentrations of the putative calcium antagonist, TMB-8. The inhibition is reversed by either the readdition of calcium or the calcium ionophore A23187. The steroidogenic response to pregnenolone, whose mode of action does not require calcium, was not depressed by TMB-8. Corticotropin (ACTH)-induced steroidogenesis, which requires extracellular calcium, was markedly depressed by TMB-8, although enhanced cyclic AMP formation is only slightly depressed by this drug. Adrenal cortical microsomes possess an ATP-dependent 45calcium (45Ca2+) uptake system which responded to EGTA with a rapid efflux of 45Ca2+; EGTA-induced calcium efflux from this microsomal fraction was markedly reduced by a concentration of TMB-8 that blocked dibutyryl cyclic AMP-evoked steroidogenesis. TMB-8 produced a smaller but significant reduction of EGTA-facilitated 45Ca2+ efflux from a mitochondrial-enriched fraction. We interpret these results to mean that TMB-8 blocks the steroidogenic effect of dibutyryl cyclic AMP by interfering with the mobilization of a cellular pool of calcium that is probably localized to the endoplasmic reticulum. The physiological implications of these findings in relation to the complex interactions between calcium and cyclic AMP in adrenal steroidogenesis are discussed. 相似文献

Summary The distribution of intracellular calcium was determined in isolated kidney cells by kinetic analyses of45Ca fluxes. Isotopic desaturation curves reveal an intracellular calcium compartment with a very slow time constant. The size of this calcium compartment is markedly increased by raising the extracellular calcium, by increasing the extracellular phosphate and may contain up to 99% of the intracellular exchangeable calcium. Accumulation of calcium in this pool is completely abolished by two specific inhibitors of mitochondrial calcium uptake, Antimycin A and Warfarin®. These results suggest that this compartment represents a pool of calcium in the cell mitochondria. The sudden removal of phosphate from the medium immediately stimulates calcium efflux from the cell. Conversely, an increase in medium phosphate immediately inhibits calcium efflux. Both effects are rapidly reversible. Finally, calcium efflux from the cells is stimulated after the cells are exposed to low temperature suggesting that calcium transport out of the cell may be regulated by the cytoplasmic calcium activity. These experiments are consistent with the view that mitochondria play an important role in the control and regulation of cytoplasmic calcium activity and of calcium transport. 相似文献

The effects of the calcium antagonists ruthenium red and D-600 and the cation ionophore A23187 on steroidogenesis were investigated. Steroidogenesis triggered by corticotrophin and cyclic AMP was inhibited by each of the agents. Incubation of Y-1 cells with an excess of ethyleneglycol-bis-(beta-amino-ethylether)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) abolished the steroidogenic response to corticotrophin while the response to cyclic AMP was unaffected. The ability of ruthenium red and D-600 (1 . 10(-5) M), and A23187 (6 . 10(-6 M) to inhibit a response which does not require the presence of extracellular calcium (cyclic AMP induced steroidogenesis) suggests that they are altering intracellular calcium. Neither of the calcium antagonists nor the cation ionophore inhibited the steroidogenic response to exogenous pregnenolone, thereby suggesting that the cells were still viable. Only when A23187 was used in the presence of a 15-fold increase in extracellular calcium (4.8 mM) was the response to pregnenolone diminished. The data are interpreted as a further indication that, in intact cells, intracellular calcium plays a role in the steroidogenic pathway. 相似文献

Ca2+ homeostasis in unstimulated platelets 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
L F Brass 《The Journal of biological chemistry》1984,259(20):12563-12570
Unstimulated platelets maintain a low cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration and a steep plasma membrane Ca2+ gradient. The mechanisms that are required have not been completely defined. In the present studies, 45Ca2+ was used to examine the kinetics of Ca2+ exchange in intact unstimulated platelets. Quin2 was used to measure the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration. Under steady-state conditions, the maximum rate of Ca2+ exchange across the platelet plasma membrane, 2 pmol/10(8) platelets/min, was observed at extracellular free Ca2+ concentrations 20-fold less than in plasma. Two intracellular exchangeable Ca2+ pools were identified. The size of the more rapidly exchanging pool (t 1/2, 17 min) and the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration were relatively unaffected by large changes in the extracellular Ca2+ concentration. In contrast, the size of the more slowly exchanging Ca2+ pool (t 1/2, 300 min) varied with the extracellular Ca2+ concentration, which suggests that it is physically as well as kinetically distinct from the rapidly exchangeable Ca2+ pool. The locations of the Ca2+ pools were determined by differential permeabilization of 45Ca2+-loaded platelets with digitonin. 45Ca2+ in the rapidly exchanging pool was released with lactate dehydrogenase, which suggests that it is located in the cytosol. 45Ca2+ in the slowly exchanging pool was released with markers for both the dense tubular system and mitochondria, but inhibition of mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake with carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone had no effect on the size of the slowly exchangeable Ca2+ pool or the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration. In contrast, addition of metabolic inhibitors (KCN plus carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone plus deoxyglucose) or trifluoperazine caused a decrease in the size of the slowly exchangeable Ca2+ pool and an increase in the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration. These observations suggest that Ca2+ homeostasis in unstimulated platelets is maintained by limiting Ca2+ influx from plasma, actively promoting Ca2+ efflux, and sequestering Ca2+ within an internal site, which is most likely the dense tubular system and not mitochondria. 相似文献

Summary Phosphate efflux was measured as the fractional rate of loss of radioactivity from desheathed rabbit vagus nerves after loading with radiophosphate. The effects of strategies designed to increase intracellular calcium were investigated. At the same time, the exchangeable calcium content was measured using45Ca. Application of calcium ionophore A23187 increased phosphate efflux in the presence of external calcium in parallel with an increase in calcium content. In the absence of external calcium, there was only a late, small increase in phosphate efflux. For nerves already treated with the calcium ionophore, the phosphate efflux was sensitive to small changes in external calcium, in the range 0.2 to 2mm calcium, whereas similar increases in calcium in absence of ionophore gave much smaller increases in phosphate efflux. Removal of external sodium (choline substitution) produced an initial increase in phosphate efflux followed by a fall. The initial increase in phosphate efflux was much larger in the presence of calcium, than in its absence. The difference was again paralleled by an increase in calcium content of the preparation, thought to be due to inhibition of Na/Ca exchange by removal of external sodium. Measurements of ATP content and ATP, ADP, phosphate and creatine phosphate ratios did not indicate significant metabolic changes when the calcium content was increased. Stimulation of phosphate efflux by an increase in intracellular calcium may be due to stimulation of phospholipid metabolism. Alternatively, it is suggested that stimulation of phosphate efflux is associated with the stimulation of calcium efflux, possibly by cotransport of calcium and phosphate. 相似文献

Calcium efflux was studied in monolayers of HeLa cells. The fast phase of exchange was studied in an open system by continuous washout. Its half-time was 1.58 min which is practically identical to the fast phase of calcium influx previously found to be 1.54 min. This suggests that the fast component of efflux represents calcium exchange from an extracellular compartment probably from calcium bound to the cell membrane surface. Dinitrophenol (DNP) and iodoacetate (IAA) do not inhibit calcium efflux from this compartment. The slow phase of calcium exchange was studied in a closed three compartment system. The half-time of calcium efflux measured under these conditions is almost identical to that obtained previously in studies of calcium influx: 33.0 and 37.0 min, respectively. This slow compartment is likely to be the intracellular exchangeable calcium pool. DNP and IAA inhibit calcium efflux from this compartment, lengthening the half-time from 33 min to 55.0 and 216 min, respectively. This suggests that calcium extrusion from the cell is an active process. Since calcium influx is not affected by metabolic inhibitors, the cellular calcium concentration increases as would be predicted under these conditions. Calcium efflux is also markedly depressed by lowering the temperature. 相似文献

The effects of diltiazem, a calcium channel inhibitor, on the cellular transport of calcium were studied in isolated heterogenous rat bone cells. Efflux was measured after equilibrating the cells with 45Ca and adding the vitamin D metabolite (1,25dihydroxycholecalciferol-1,25(OH)2D3 or 24,25dihydrocholecalciferol-24,25(OH)2D3), the ionophore A23187 and/or diltiazem. Results were analysed by fitting the desaturation curve to a model of two exponential terms. Kinetic analyses of curve indicated the presence of 2 exchangeable pools with different rate constants of exchange between the medium and cells (expressed by K.). After incubation of bone cells with diltiazem (20 nmol/10(6) cells) the following changes were recorded: a marked decrease in the rate constant of efflux from the fast turnover calcium pool (K12) and a reduction of the calcium pool sizes. Incubation of 10(6) cells with 0.5 ng 1,25(OH)2D3 plus diltiazem significantly reduced K12 compared to incubation with 1,25(OH)2D3 alone. In presence of 24,25(OH)2D3, diltiazem did not significantly alter K12 which was raised by incubation with the metabolite alone. Ionophore A23187 (0.5 micrograms/10(6) cells) increased the value of slow turnover constants of efflux whose values were affected by diltiazem. The possible involvement of Ca movements in bone resorption does not seem confirmed in the present experiment since in vitro effects of diltiazem in organ culture (observed in an initial previous experiment) were not reflected in the calcium 45 desaturation kinetics in heterogenous bone cells. 相似文献

POTASSIUM EFFECTS ON ION TRANSPORT IN BRAIN SLICES 总被引:5,自引:4,他引:1
L. Hertz 《Journal of neurochemistry》1968,15(1):1-16
—(1) Fluxes of sodium, potassium, chloride and glutamate ions were studied in brain slices by aid of radio-isotopes. Desaturation curves showed the efflux to occur from at least two compartments with widely different kinetics. (2) The slowly exchanging component comprises from about 10 (sodium, potassium, chloride) to about 30 (glutamate) per cent of the radioactivity in the tissue. An energy-requiring uptake of potassium and extrusion of sodium seems to occur in this compartment, which probably includes the nerve cells. (3) A rather slow efflux of especially potassium ions from the rapidly exchanging fraction indicates that this component may not be purely extracellular, but also seems to include cells, which possibly are neuroglial. The hypothesis of a cellular origin is supported by the demonstration of an increase in the rate constant of the potassium efflux evoked in the presence of oxygen by high concentrations of potassium. (4) Evidence is presented that the increase in the rate constant of the potassium efflux is due to a potassium-induced stimulation of active transport. No coupling seems to occur between the stimulated potassium transport and movements of sodium, but potassium ions may be accompanied by glutamate ions. 相似文献

Free cholesterol is very efficiently removed from cells by 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrins. The efflux of cholesterol occurs from two distinct kinetic pools: the half-times (t(1/2)) for the two pools in CHO-K1 cells are 15 +/- 5 s and 21 +/- 6 min and they represent 25% +/- 5% and 75% +/- 5% of the readily exchangeable cell cholesterol, respectively. In this study we have determined that the fast pool and the majority of the slow kinetic pool for cholesterol efflux are apparently present in the plasma membrane. Numerous agents that inhibit intracellular cholesterol trafficking are unable to affect either the size or the t(1/2) for efflux of either kinetic pool. In contrast, treatment of the cells with N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), exogenous lipases such as sphingomyelinase and phospholipase C, calcium ionophore A23187, or heat resulted in the dramatic increase in the size of the fast kinetic pool of cholesterol. These changes in the kinetics of cholesterol efflux are not specific to the nature of the extracellular acceptor indicating that they are a consequence of changes in the cell plasma membrane. The above treatments disrupt the normal organization of the lipids in the plasma membrane via either hydrolysis or randomization. The phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin present in the plasma membrane are critical for maintaining the two kinetic pools of cholesterol; any alteration in the amount or the location of these phospholipids results in an enhancement of efflux by redistributing cholesterol into the fast kinetic pool. 相似文献

The origin, quantitation, and kinetics of intracellular calcium mobilization by vasopressin and phenylephrine in hepatocytes 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The addition of phenylephrine or vasopressin to isolated hepatocytes resulted in an efflux of calcium. The intracellular source of this calcium was determined by measuring the calcium released upon the sequential additions of an uncoupling agent and the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 to control and hormone-treated cells. The release promoted by these agents was used as an estimate of the calcium content of the mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum, respectively. The validity and limitations of this method are critically evaluated. The source of the calcium mobilized by the hormones was found to depend on the intracellular calcium distribution. When the amount of total cell-releasable Ca2+ was low (less than 0.9 nmol/mg cell dry weight), the endoplasmic reticulum represented the major cellular calcium pool and was also the predominant pool mobilized by the hormone. As the cell calcium content was increased, the endoplasmic reticulum attained its maximum capacity and the mitochondria sequestered increasing amounts of calcium. Under these conditions, the hormones mobilized calcium from the mitochondria with minimal effects on the endoplasmic reticulum calcium pool. These results suggest that more than one hormone-induced Ca2+-releasing agent may be formed. Both the total amount and the rate of calcium released from the cell under the influence of hormones was independent of the cell calcium content. The appearance of hormone-releasable Ca2+ in the extracellular medium showed a lag period of 5 to 10 s, during which a rapid increase of phosphorylase activity was observed. In contrast, the mobilization of a comparable amount of calcium by carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone showed no significant lag, but the activation of phosphorylase was slower. A kinetic analysis of the hormone-releasable Ca2+ indicated a rapid onset with a peak increase of cytosolic free Ca2+ between 5 and 10 s prior to release of Ca2+ from the cell. The results suggest that an early action of the hormone is the inhibition of the plasma membrane Ca2+ efflux pump. 相似文献

Calcium efflux from isolated mitochondria on ruthenium red addition was shown to be biphasic. The rate of efflux from a slowly releasable pool was independent of preincubation. It could be saturated and in extrapolation revealed a maximal rate of 3.6 nmol/(min X mg protein). The efflux from a second, rapidly dischargeable pool was related to calcium added up to 300 nmol/mg protein when a final rate of 15 nmol/(min X mg protein) was reached. The magnitude of the latter pool depended on the time of preincubation in the presence of calcium and correlated with mitochondrial swelling. After ruthenium red addition, a further increase of this pool and spontaneous, destructive calcium release was prevented. Three conclusions are drawn from these results: On preincubation with calcium, part of the mitochondrial calcium develops into a rapidly dischargeable pool. This pool is responsible for mitochondrial alterations resulting in a spontaneous, destructive release of total calcium. Ruthenium red inhibits calcium release by discharging mitochondria from this destructive calcium pool. To avoid artefacts, mitochondrial parameters should be carefully controlled when ruthenium red-insensitive calcium efflux is studied. 相似文献

Biphasic responses of amino[14C]pyrine accumulation and oxygen consumption were registered by gastrin stimulation in dispersed parietal cells from guinea pig gastric mucosa, and this was mimicked with the calcium ionophore A23187. The characteristics of these phases (first phase and second phase) were distinguished by the differences in the requirements of extracellular Ca2+. The first phase evoked by gastrin or ionophore A23187 was independent of extracellular Ca2+, whereas the second phase was not. In the first phase, fluorescence of a cytosolic Ca2+ indicator (quin2-AM) increased with the stimulation of ionophore A23187 and carbamylcholine chloride in the presence of extracellular Ca2+. In addition, an increase in cytosolic Ca2+ induced by ionophore A23187, but not by carbamylcholine chloride was also observed in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, suggesting that Ca2+ pool(s) in parietal cells might be present in the intracellular organelle. Cytochalasin B and colchicine, but not oligomycin, could eliminate this cytosolic Ca2+ increase induced by A23187 in a Ca2+-free medium. On the other hand, in a Ca2+-free medium, addition of ATP after pretreatment with digitonin could diminish the cytosolic Ca2+ increase brought about by A23187. This was also observed with oligomycin-treated cells, but not with cytochalasin B-treated cells. Similarly, subcellular fractionation of a parietal cell which had been pretreated with cytochalasin B or colchicine in an intact cell system reduced the rate of ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake. These observations indicate that intracellular Ca2+ transport in dispersed parietal cells may be regulated by the microtubular-microfilamentous system. In conclusion, this study demonstrates the possibility of the existence of intracellular Ca2+ transport mediated by gastrin or ionophore A23187 and regulated by the microtubular-microfilamentous system in parietal cells. 相似文献

The regulatory behavior, inhibitor sensitivity, and properties of the whole cell chloride conductance observed in cells expressing the cDNA coding for a chloride conductance mediator isoform of the CLCA gene family, pCLCA1, have been studied. Common C-kinase consensus phosphorylation sites between pCLCA1 and the closely related human isoform hCLCA1 are consistent with a role for calcium in channel activation. Both channels are activated rapidly on exposure to the calcium ionophore ionomycin. Direct involvement of calcium in the activation of pCLCA1 was supported by the finding that treatment with the intracellular calcium chelator 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid-AM reduced the rate of chloride efflux from NIH/3T3 cells expressing the pCLCA1 channel. No combination of A-kinase activators used was effective in activating chloride efflux via this channel despite the presence of a unique strong A-kinase consensus site in pCLCA1. Notable differences of pCLCA1 from the reported properties of CLCA family members include the failure of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate to activate chloride efflux in cells expressing pCLCA1 and a lack of inhibition of chloride efflux from these cells after treatment with DIDS or dithiothreitol. However, selected inhibitors of anionic conductance inhibited pCLCA1-dependent anion efflux. The electrogenic nature of the ionomycin-dependent efflux of chloride from cells expressing pCLCA1 was confirmed by detection of outwardly rectifying chloride current and inhibition of this current by chloride conductance inhibitors in a whole cell patch-clamp study. 相似文献

Summary Calcium efflux was measured in desheathed rabbit vagus nerves loaded with45Ca2+. The effects of extracellular calcium, sodium, phosphate, potassium and lanthanum ions on the calcium efflux were investigated and the distribution of intracellular calcium determined by kinetic analysis of45Ca2+ efflux profiles. The45Ca2+ desaturation curve can be adequately described by three exponential terms. The rate constant of the first component (0.2 min–1) corresponds to an efflux from an extracellular compartment. The two slow components had rate constants of 0.03 and 0.08 min–1 and represent the efflux from two intracellular pools. The amounts of exchangeable calcium in these two pools, after a loading period of 150 min, were 0.170 and 0.102 mmol/kg wet weight, respectively. The total calcium efflux in physiological conditions amounted to about 24 fmol cm–2 sec–1. The magnitude of the two intracellular compartments as well as the total calcium efflux were markedly affected by extracellular phosphate, sodium and lanthanum, whereas the corresponding rate constants remained almost unchanged. Phosphate reversed the effect of sodium withdrawal on the calcium efflux: in the absence of phosphate, sodium withdrawal increased the calcium efflux to 224%, but in the presence of phosphate, sodium withdrawal decreased calcium efflux to 44%. Phosphate also affected the increase in calcium efflux produced by inhibitors of mitochondrial calcium uptake, suggesting that two different mitochondrial pools contribute to the control and regulation of intracellular calcium and of the transmembrane calcium transport.Deceased 18 April 1988 相似文献

The bidirectional transport of calcium in rat liver was studied using slices labeled with Ca47 in a closed two compartment system. Steady-state conditions were observed with influx and efflux transfer coefficients of 0.070 and 0.018 per minute, respectively. The rapidly exchanging cell fraction of calcium existed at a concentration three times higher than the average cell concentration of calcium and occupied cell loci comprising less than 25% of the cell mass, suggesting that calcium associated with the cell membranes, nuclei, and mitochondria participated in the rapidly exchanging fraction. At pH 7.4 and 377deg;C, the influx transfer coefficient was 25% above the steady-state condition and accumulation of calcium by the slices occurred. Studies of the effects of varied physical and chemical conditions revealed that the influx transfer coefficient was increased by elevated pH, strontium, certain metabolic inhibitors, and 2 mM concentrations of cyclic adenosinemonophosphate and adenosinetriphosphate. The influx transfer coefficient was decreased by reduced temperature, decreased pH, magnesium, and 10 mM adenosinetriphosphate. The efflux transfer coefficient was increased by elevated pH, strontium, iodoacetate, and adenosinetriphosphate, and was decreased by reduced temperature and by N-ethylmaleimide. These data support the thesis that cell transport of calcium is accomplished by the attachment of calcium atoms to the cell surface and transport through the plasma membrane bound to either specific carriers or to membrane constituents. Conditions which change the affinities, capacities, and mobilities of plasma membrane ligands that bind calcium or cause extracellular chelation of calcium are capable of altering the rate of calcium transport. 相似文献

Kinetics of calcium dissociation from its high-affinity transport sites on sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We investigated the kinetics of calcium dissociation from its high-affinity transport sites on sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2(+)-ATPase by combining fast filtration with stopped-flow fluorescence measurements. At pH 6 and 20 degrees C, in the absence of potassium and in the presence of 20 mM MgCl2, isotopic exchange of bound calcium exhibited biphasic kinetics, with two phases of equal amplitude, regardless of the initial extent of binding site saturation. The rapidly exchangeable site, whose occupancy by calcium controlled the rate constant of the slow phase, had an apparent affinity for calcium of about 3-6 microM. A similar high affinity was also deduced from measurements of the calcium dependence of the rate constant for ATPase fluorescence changes. This affinity was higher than the overall affinity for calcium deduced from the equilibrium binding measurements (dissociation constant of 15-20 microM); this was consistent with the occurrence of cooperativity (Hill coefficient of 1.6-1.8). The drop in intrinsic fluorescence observed upon chelation of calcium was always slightly faster than the dissociation of calcium itself, although the rates for both this drop in fluorescence and calcium dissociation varied slightly from one preparation to the other. This fluorescence drop was therefore mainly due to dissociation of the bound ions, not to slow transconformation of the ATPase. Dissociation of the two bound calcium ions in a medium containing EGTA exhibited monophasic kinetics in the presence of a calcium ionophore, with a rate constant about half that of the fast phase of isotopic exchange. This particular pattern was observed over a wide range of experimental conditions, including the presence of KCl, dimethyl sulfoxide, 4-nonylphenol, or a nucleotide analogue, at pH 6 or 7, and at various temperatures. The kinetics of calcium dissociation under the above various conditions were not correlated with the ATPase affinity for calcium deduced from equilibrium measurements under the same conditions. These results are consistent with sequential dissociation of calcium from a narrow binding pocket inside which a single calcium ion can move fairly easily. Escape of calcium might be controlled by a structural compartment acting as a gate. 相似文献

Stimulation of beta-adrenoceptors inhibits calcium-dependent potassium-channels in mouse macrophages 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

K+ efflux in mouse macrophages exhibited a rate constant (kK) of 0.67 +/- 0.04 (h)-1 (mean +/- SEM of 16 experiments). This was strongly stimulated by increasing concentrations of the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 up to a maximal value of 4.01 +/- 0.25 (h)-1 with an IC50 of 7.6 +/- 1.9 microM (mean +/- SEM of 6 experiments). Similar results were obtained with the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin. Binding experiments with 3H-dihydroalprenolol revealed a high density of beta-adrenergic receptors (97.5 +/- 5.2 fmol/mg protein) with apparent dissociation constant of 2.03 +/- 0.06 nM. Isoproterenol at a concentration of 10(-6)-10(-5) M induced a two- to threefold stimulation of endogenous levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP). A23187-stimulated K+ efflux was partially inhibited by stimulation of adenylate cyclase with isoproterenol, forskolin or, PGE1; exogenous cAMP; and inhibition of phosphodiesterase with MIX (1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine). Maximal inhibition of K+ efflux was obtained by simultaneous addition of isoproterenol and MIX. In dose-response curves, the isoproterenol-sensitive K+ efflux was half-maximally inhibited (IC50) with 2-5 X 10(-10) M of isoproterenol concentration. Propranolol was able to completely block the effect of isoproterenol, with an IC50 of about 1-2 X 10(-7) M. Isoproterenol and MIX were also able to partially inhibit ionomycin-stimulated K+ efflux. Isoproterenol and MIX did not inhibit A23187-stimulated K+ efflux in an incubation medium where NaCl was replaced by sucrose (or choline), suggesting the involvement of an Na+:Ca2+ exchange mechanism. Our results show that stimulation of beta-adrenoceptors in mouse macrophages counterbalances the opening of K+ channels induced by the calcium ionophore A23187. This likely reflects a decrease in cytosolic free calcium content via a cAMP-mediated stimulation of Na+:Ca2+ exchange. 相似文献

Calcium permeability changes and neurotransmitter release in cultured rat brain neurons. I. Effects of stimulation on calcium fluxes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The permeability of neuronal membranes to Ca2+ is of great importance for neurotransmitter release. The temporal characteristics of Ca2+ fluxes in intact brain neurons have not been completely defined. In the present study 45Ca2+ was used to examine the kinetics of Ca2+ influx and efflux from unstimulated and depolarized rat brain neurons in culture. Under steady-state conditions three cellular exchangeable Ca2+ pools were identified in unstimulated cells: 1) a rapidly exchanging pool (t1/2 = 7 s) which represented about 10% of the total cellular Ca2+ and was unaffected by the presence of Co2+, verapamil, or tetrodotoxin; 2) a slowly exchanging pool (t1/2 = 360 s) which represented 42% of the total cellular Ca2+ and was inhibited by Co2+, but not by verapamil or tetrodotoxin; 3) a very slowly exchanging pool (t1/2 = 96 min) which represented 48% of the total cell Ca2+ was observed only in the prolonged efflux experiments. The rate of exchange of 45Ca2+ in the unstimulated cells was dependent on the extracellular Ca2+ concentration (half-saturation at 70 microM). Depolarization of the neurons with elevated K+ causes a rapid and sustained 45Ca2+ uptake. The cellular Ca2+ content increased from 56 nmol/mg protein in unstimulated cells to 81 nmol/mg protein during 5 min of depolarization. The kinetics of the net 45Ca2+ uptake by the stimulated neurons was consistent with movement of the ion with a first order rate constant of 0.0096 s-1 (t1/2 = 72 s) into a single additional compartment. The other cellular Ca2+ pools were apparently unaffected by stimulation. The stimulated 45Ca2+ uptake was inhibited by Co2+ and by the Ca2+ channel blocker verapamil but not by the Na+ channel blocker tetrodotoxin. Ca2+ uptake into this compartment was dependent on the extracellular Ca2+ concentration (half-saturation at 0.80 mM Ca2+). Predepolarization of the cells with high K+ for 10-60 s prior to the addition of the radioactive calcium did not alter the rate of 45Ca2+ incorporation into the stimulated cells. It is concluded that the rapidly exchanging, the slowly exchanging, and the depolarization-induced Ca2+ pools observed in intact brain neurons are physically as well as kinetically distinct from each other. In addition, the depolarization-induced component observed in stimulated cells represents movement of the Ca2+ ions through a single class of voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels. These Ca2+ channels are inhibited by Co2+ ions and by verapamil and are not inactivated during depolarization of the brain neurons. 相似文献

Calcium influx was studied in monolayers of HeLa cells to determine the number of exchangeable and nonexchangeable pools and the rate constant of the different fluxes. Of the two exchangeable pools, one has a very fast rate of exchange with a half-time of 1.54 min, a compartment size of 1.06 mµmoles/mg cell protein, and an exchange rate of 474 µµmoles/(mg protein\·min). This compartment is likely to be extracellular and could represent calcium exchange between the extracellular fluids and surface binding sites of the cell membrane. The second exchangeable pool has a half-time of exchange of 31 min, a compartment size of 2.69 mµmoles/mg cell protein (0.224 millimole calcium/kg cell water), and a flux rate of 0.0546 µµmole cm-2 sec-1. This compartment can be considered to be the intracellular pool of exchangeable calcium. An unexchangeable intracellular pool of calcium of 3.05 mµmoles/mg cell protein was detected implying that only 45% of the intracellular calcium is exchangeable. In addition, a large extracellular pool of calcium has been found to be unexchangeable, probably a part of the cell glycocalix. Finally, dinitrophenol 10-3
M does not affect the slow component of the calcium uptake curve which brings new evidence that calcium entry into the cell is not a metabolically dependent process. 相似文献
