Caffeine inhibits the agonist-evoked cytosolic Ca2+ signal in mouse pancreatic acinar cells by blocking inositol trisphosphate production.

The inhibitory effects of caffeine on receptor-activated cytosolic Ca2+ signal generation in isolated mouse pancreatic acinar cells were investigated. Using the ability of caffeine to quench Indo-1 fluorescence we measured simultaneously the free intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) and the intracellular caffeine concentration ([caffeine]i). We also measured inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) production with a radioreceptor assay. When caffeine was added to the extracellular solution during a sustained receptor-activated increase in [Ca2+]i, [caffeine]i rose to its steady level within a few seconds. This was accompanied by a decrease of [Ca2+]i, which started only after [caffeine]i had reached an apparent threshold concentration (about 2 mM in the case of 0.5 microM acetylcholine (ACh) stimulation). Above this [caffeine]i level there was a linear relationship between [caffeine]i and [Ca2+]i. Throughout the caffeine exposure [Ca2+]i remained at a steady low level. Following removal of caffeine from the bath, [caffeine]i decreased to zero within seconds. There was no significant increase in [Ca2+]i until [caffeine]i had been reduced to the threshold level (about 2 mM at 0.5 microM ACh). Caffeine inhibited Ca2+ signals evoked by ACh, cholecystokinin, and ATP and also inhibited signals generated in the absence of external Ca2+. Caffeine application had the same effect as removal of agonist allowing recovery from apparent desensitization. Caffeine inhibited the agonist-evoked production of InsP3 in a dose-dependent manner. Our results demonstrate the acute and reversible dose-dependent inhibition of agonist-evoked cytosolic Ca2+ signal generation due to rapid intracellular caffeine accumulation and washout. The inhibition can be explained by the reduction of agonist-evoked InsP3 production.     

The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-forming agonist histamine activates a ryanodine-sensitive Ca2+ release mechanism in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells

The role of a Ca(2+)-induced Ca2+ release (CICR) mechanism in the generation of agonist-induced increases of intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was studied in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. In single cells, repetitive stimulations with caffeine at 200-s intervals evoked reproducible spikes of [Ca2+]i. Ryanodine, an agent that interacts with the CICR channel of muscle, inhibited the caffeine-induced spikes of [Ca2+]i in a "use-dependent" way. High affinity binding sites for [3H]ryanodine (Kd 3.3 nM, Bmax 26 fmol/mg protein) were also detected in membranes from chromaffin cells, supporting the presence of a caffeine- and ryanodine-sensitive CICR channel. Pretreatment of single cells with caffeine + ryanodine to reduce the size of the caffeine-sensitive Ca2+ compartment inhibited a subsequent spike of [Ca2+]i evoked by histamine, a D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-forming agonist. This demonstrates that a significant portion of the Ca2+ released by histamine comes from a caffeine- and ryanodine-sensitive pool. Ryanodine inhibited by 50% the size of [Ca2+]i spikes evoked by repetitive stimulation with histamine and did so in a use-dependent manner. These data suggest that, in addition to D-myoinositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, activation of a caffeine- and ryanodine-sensitive CICR channel participates in the generation of histamine-induced release of intracellular Ca2+.     

Cytoplasmic Ca2+ oscillations evoked by receptor stimulation, G-protein activation, internal application of inositol trisphosphate or Ca2+: simultaneous microfluorimetry and Ca2+ dependent Cl- current recording in single pancreatic acinar cells.

The effects of acetylcholine (ACh), cholecystokinin (CCK), internally applied GTP-gamma-S, inositol trisphosphate [Ins (1,4,5) P3] or Ca2+ on the cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration [( Ca2+]i) were assessed by simultaneous microfluorimetry (fura-2) and measurement of the Ca2(+)-dependent Cl- current (patch-clamp whole-cell recording) in single internally perfused mouse pancreatic acinar cells. ACh (0.1-0.2 microM) evoked an oscillating increase in [Ca2+]i measured in the cell as a whole (microfluorimetry) which was synchronous with oscillations in the Ca2(+)-dependent Cl- current reporting [Ca2+]i close to the cell membrane. In the same cells a lower ACh concentration (0.05 microM) evoked shorter repetitive Cl- current pulses that were not accompanied by similar spikes in the microfluorimetric recording. When cells did not respond to 0.1 microM ACh, caffeine (1 mM) added on top of the sustained ACh stimulus resulted in [Ca2+]i oscillations seen synchronously in both types of recording. CCK (10 nM) also evoked [Ca2+]i oscillations, but with much longer intervals between slightly broader Ca2+ pulses. Internal perfusion with 100 microM GTP-gamma-S evoked [Ca2+]i oscillations with a similar pattern. Ins (1,4,5) P3 (10 microM) evoked repetitive shortlasting spikes in [Ca2+]i that were only seen in the Cl- current traces, except in one small cell where these spikes were also observed synchronously in the microfluorimetric recording. Caffeine (1 mM) broadened these Ca2+ pulses. [Ca2+]i was also directly changed, bypassing the normal signalling process, by infusion of a low or high Ca2+ solution into the pipette.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Possible involvement of Rho kinase in Ca2+ sensitization and mobilization by MCh in tracheal smooth muscle

We examined the effects of Rho kinase on contraction and intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+](i)) in guinea pig trachealis by measuring isometric force and the fura 2 signal [340- to 380-nm fluorescence ratio (F340/F380)]. A Rho kinase inhibitor, Y-27632 (1-1,000 microM), inhibited methacholine (MCh)-induced contraction, with a reduction in F340/F380 in a concentration-dependent manner. The values of EC(50) for contraction and F340/F380 induced by 1 microM MCh with Y-27632 were 27.3 +/- 5.1 and 524.1 +/- 31.0 microM, respectively. With 0.1 microM MCh, the values for these parameters were decreased to 1.0 +/- 0.1 and 98.2 +/- 6.2 microM, respectively. Tension-F340/F380 curves for MCh indicated that Y-27632 caused an ~50% inhibition of MCh-induced contraction, without a reduction in F340/F380. These effects of Y-27632 were not inhibited by a protein kinase C inhibitor, GF-109203X. Our results indicate that inhibition of Rho kinase attenuates both Ca2+ sensitization and [Ca2+](i).     

Intracellular calcium 'signatures' evoked by different agonists in isolated bovine aortic endothelial cells.

Agonist induced increases in intracellular free calcium, [Ca2+]i, were measured in single Fura-2 loaded bovine aortic endothelial (BAE) cells by dual wavelength microspectrofluorimetry. Low doses of ATP (less than 10 microM) induced complex changes in [Ca2+]i. These changes usually consisted of a large initial transient peak with subsequent fluctuations superimposed upon a maintained rise in [Ca2+]i. Higher doses of ATP (greater than 50 microM) produced much simpler biphasic increases in [Ca2+]i in individual cells. Acetylcholine and bradykinin also elicited increases in [Ca2+]i in single cells in confluent monolayers of endothelial cells. However, only acetylcholine produced complex fluctuations. High doses of acetylcholine evoked simple rises in [Ca2+]i similar to those seen with high doses of ATP. In contrast, bradykinin evoked relatively simple rises in [Ca2+]i at all doses used. These results indicate that the mechanisms responsible for generating agonist induced increases in [Ca2+]i in BAE cells are not homogeneous. ATP and acetylcholine produced more complex Ca2+ changes or 'signatures' in single confluent bovine aortic endothelial cells than bradykinin. All three agonists appeared to release Ca2+ from intracellular stores as well as stimulating Ca2+ influx. The possible mechanisms underlying these phenomena are discussed.     

Simultaneous analysis of cell Ca2+ and Ca2(+)-stimulated chloride conductance in colonic epithelial cells (HT-29).

We used perforated patch, whole-cell current recordings and video-based fluorescence ratio imaging to monitor the relation of plasma membrane ionic conductances to intracellular free Ca2+ within individual colonic epithelial cells (HT-29). The Ca2(+)-mediated agonist, neurotensin, activated K+ and Cl- conductances that showed different sensitivities to [Ca2+]i. The Cl- conductance was sensitive to increases or decreases in [Ca2+]i around the resting value of 76 +/- 32 (mean +/- SD) nM (n = 46), whereas activation of the K+ conductance required at least a 10-fold rise in [Ca2+]i. Neurotensin increased [Ca2+]i by stimulating a transient intracellular Ca2+ release, which was followed by a sustained rise in [Ca2+]i due to Ca2+ influx from the bath. The onset of the initial [Ca2+]i transient, monitored at a measurement window over the cell interior, lagged behind the rise in Cl- current during agonist stimulation. This lag was not present when the [Ca2+]i rise was due to Ca2+ entry from the bath, induced either by the agonist or by the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin. The temporal differences in [Ca2+]i and Cl- current during the agonist-induced [Ca2+]i transient can be explained by a localized Ca2+ release from intracellular stores in the vicinity of the plasma membrane Cl- channel. Chloride currents recover toward basal values more rapidly than [Ca2+]i after the agonist-induced [Ca2+]i transient, and, during a sustained neurotensin-induced [Ca2+]i rise, Cl- currents inactivate. These findings suggest that an inhibitory pathway limits the increase in Cl- conductance that can be evoked by agonist. Because this Cl- current inhibition is not observed during a sustained [Ca2+]i rise induced by ionomycin, the inhibitory pathway may be mediated by another agonist-induced messenger, such as diacylglycerol.     

Internal Ca2+ Mobilization by Muscarinic Stimulation Increases Secretion from Adrenal Chromaffin Cells Only in the Presence of Ca2+ Influx

The cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]in) in single cat and bovine adrenal chromaffin cells was measured to determine whether or not there was any correlation between the [Ca2+]in and the catecholamine (CA) secretion caused by muscarinic receptor stimulation. In cat chromaffin cells, methacholine (MCh), a muscarinic agonist, raised [Ca2+]in by activating both Ca2+ influx and intracellular Ca2+ mobilization with an accompanying CA secretion. In bovine cells, MCh elevated [Ca2+]in by mobilizing intracellular Ca2+ but did not cause CA secretion. The MCh-induced rise in [Ca2+]in in cat cells was much higher than that in bovine cells, but when Ca2+ influx was blocked, the rise was reduced, with a concomitant loss of secretion, to a level comparable to that in bovine cells. Intracellular Ca2+ mobilization due to muscarinic stimulation substantially increased secretion from depolarized bovine and cat cells, where a [Ca2+]in elevated above basal values was maintained by a continuous Ca2+ influx. These results show that Ca2+ released from internal stores is not effective in triggering secretion unless Ca2+ continues to enter across the plasma membrane, a conclusion suggesting that secretion depends on [Ca2+]in in a particular region of the cell.     

The role of Ca2+ in regulating the catabolism of PAF-acether (1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) in rabbit platelets.

In the present study we have investigated the effect of changes in the concentration of cytosolic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) on the deacetylation-reacylation of PAF-acether (alkylacetylglycerophosphocholine, alkylacetyl-GPC) by rabbit platelets. Washed platelets were incubated with alkyl[3H]acetyl-GPC ([3H]acetyl-PAF) or [3H]alkylacetyl-GPC ([3H]alkyl-PAF) and [Ca2+]i was subsequently elevated by the addition of the ionophore A23187 or thrombin. The catabolism of PAF-acether was studied by measuring the release of [3H]acetate or the formation of [3H]alkylacyl-GPC. The ionophore inhibited the release of [3H]acetate and the formation of [3H]alkylacyl-GPC with no accumulation of lyso-[3H]PAF, indicating that the deacetylation of PAF-acether was blocked. The effect of ionophore on the deacetylation of PAF-acether was parallel with the increase of [Ca2+]i and could be reversed by the addition of EGTA. In contrast with the prolonged inhibition evoked by ionophore, thrombin, which induced a transient elevation of [Ca2+]i, merely delayed the deacetylation of PAF-acether. Since intact platelets failed to convert exogenous lyso-PAF, the effect of Ca2+ on its acylation was investigated by using platelet homogenates. These experiments showed that the acylation of lyso-PAF was inhibited by the exogenously added Ca2+, with a maximum effect at 1 mM. When the formation of endogenous lyso-PAF from the labelled pool of alkylacyl-GPC was examined, a prolonged increase in the concentration of lyso-PAF with a parallel and equally prolonged decrease in the cellular level of alkylacyl-GPC were observed after the addition of ionophore to intact platelets. The addition of EGTA reversed the effect of ionophore, thus permitting reacylation of lyso-PAF. In contrast, only a transient change in the level of lyso-PAF and alkylacyl-GPC was evoked by the addition of thrombin. Therefore we conclude that the inhibitory effect of Ca2+ on the deacetylation-reacylation of PAF-acether may have an important role in the regulation of its biosynthesis.     

Acetylcholine-evoked increase in the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration and Ca2+ extrusion measured simultaneously in single mouse pancreatic acinar cells.

The intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([free Ca2+]i) was measured simultaneously with the Ca2+ extrusion from single isolated mouse pancreatic acinar cells placed in a microdroplet of extracellular solution using the fluorescent probes fura-2 and fluo-3. The extracellular solution had a low total calcium concentration (15-35 microM), and acetylcholine (ACh), applied by microionophoresis, therefore only evoked a transient elevation of [free Ca2+]i lasting about 2-5 min. The initial sharp rise in [free Ca2+]i from about 100 nM toward 0.5-1 microM was followed within seconds by an increase in the total calcium concentration in the microdroplet solution ([Ca]o). The rate of this rise of [Ca]o was dependent on the [free Ca2+]i elevation, and as [free Ca2+]i gradually decreased Ca2+ extrusion declined with the same time course. Ca2+ extrusion following ACh stimulation was not influenced by removal of all Na+ in the microdroplet solution indicating that the Ca2+ extrusion is not mediated by Na(+)-Ca2+ exchange but by the Ca2+ pump. The amount of Ca2+ extruded during the ACh-evoked transient rise in [free Ca2+]i corresponded to a decrease in the total intracellular Ca concentration of about 0.7 mM which is close to previously reported values (0.5-1 mM) for the total concentration of mobilizable calcium in these cells. Our results therefore demonstrate directly the ability of the Ca2+ pump to rapidly remove the large amount of Ca2+ released from the intracellular pools during receptor activation.
