The Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger, a major mechanism by which cells extrude calcium, is involved in several physiological and physiopathological interactions. In this work we have used the dialyzed squid giant axon to study the effects of two oxidants, SIN-1-buffered peroxynitrite and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), on the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger in the absence and presence of MgATP upregulation. The results show that oxidative stress induced by peroxynitrite and hydrogen peroxide inhibits the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger by impairing the intracellular Ca(2+) (Ca(i)(2+))-regulatory sites, leaving unharmed the intracellular Na(+)- and Ca(2+)-transporting sites. This effect is efficiently counteracted by the presence of MgATP and by intracellular alkalinization, conditions that also protect H(i)(+) and (H(i)(+) + Na(i)(+)) inhibition of Ca(i)(2+)-regulatory sites. In addition, 1 mM intracellular EGTA reduces oxidant inhibition. However, once the effects of oxidants are installed they cannot be reversed by either MgATP or EGTA. These results have significant implications regarding the role of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger in response to pathological conditions leading to tissue ischemia-reperfusion and anoxia/reoxygenation; they concur with a marked reduction in ATP concentration, an increase in oxidant production, and a rise in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration that seems to be the main factor responsible for cell damage. 相似文献

In the last decade, there has been a large increase in the study of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger due to its implications in physiological and pathophysiological processes at the cell and organ levels. Key areas of these studies have been molecular biology, regulation and physiology-pathophysiology of the exchanger. There are three main types of regulation that take place at the large intracellular loop of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger: (i) ionic (sodium inactivation, calcium regulation and proton inhibition), (ii) metabolic (ATP as phosphoryl group donor), and (iii) genetic (alternative splicing). This review analyzes the most recent data on the mutual interactions of regulatory ionic ligands (Ca(2+), Na(+), H(+)) and how they are secondarily modulated by MgATP, emphasizing the importance of the binding of Ca(2+) to its regulatory site as an essential requirement for the exchange function. Intracellular protons and sodium inhibit the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger by reducing the apparent affinity of the Ca(i)-regulatory site for Ca(2+). Although the metabolic pathways are different in the mammalian heart (membrane lipids) and squid nerve cells (soluble cytosolic regulatory protein), the final mechanism for the protective effect of MgATP is the same: a reduction of Na(i)(+)-H(i)(+) binding affinities facilitating the attachment of Ca(2+) to its regulatory site. Kinetic models, which partially analyzed some of these ionic and metabolic interactions, can be integrated into a single scheme where the Ca(i)-regulatory site plays a central role. 相似文献

The activity of the cardiac Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX1.1) undergoes continuous modulation during the contraction-relaxation cycle because of the accompanying changes in the electrochemical gradients for Na(+) and Ca(2+). In addition, NCX1.1 activity is also modulated via secondary, ionic regulatory mechanisms mediated by Na(+) and Ca(2+). In an effort to evaluate how ionic regulation influences exchange activity under pulsatile conditions, we studied the behavior of the cloned NCX1.1 during frequency-controlled changes in intracellular Na(+) and Ca(+) (Na(i)(+) and Ca(i)(2+)). Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange activity was measured by the giant excised patch-clamp technique with conditions chosen to maximize the extent of Na(+)- and Ca(2+)-dependent ionic regulation so that the effects of variables such as pulse frequency and duration could be optimally discerned. We demonstrate that increasing the frequency or duration of solution pulses leads to a progressive decline in pure outward, but not pure inward, Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange current. However, when the exchanger is permitted to alternate between inward and outward transport modes, both current modes exhibit substantial levels of inactivation. Changes in regulatory Ca(2+), or exposure of patches to limited proteolysis by alpha-chymotrypsin, reveal that this "coupling" is due to Na(+)-dependent inactivation originating from the outward current mode. Under physiological ionic conditions, however, evidence for modulation of exchange currents by Na(i)(+)-dependent inactivation was not apparent. The current approach provides a novel means for assessment of Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange ionic regulation that may ultimately prove useful in understanding its role under physiological and pathophysiological conditions. 相似文献

Olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) from the squid, Lolliguncula brevis, respond to the odors l-glutamate or dopamine with increases in internal Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)](i)). To directly asses the effects of increasing [Ca(2+)](i) in perforated-patched squid ORNs, we applied 10 mM caffeine to release Ca(2+) from internal stores. We observed an inward current response to caffeine. Monovalent cation replacement of Na(+) from the external bath solution completely and selectively inhibited the caffeine-induced response, and ruled out the possibility of a Ca(2+)-dependent nonselective cation current. The strict dependence on internal Ca(2+) and external Na(+) indicated that the inward current was due to an electrogenic Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger. Block of the caffeine-induced current by an inhibitor of Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange (50-100 microM 2',4'-dichlorobenzamil) and reversibility of the exchanger current, further confirmed its presence. We tested whether Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange contributed to odor responses by applying the aquatic odor l-glutamate in the presence and absence of 2', 4'-dichlorobenzamil. We found that electrogenic Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange was responsible for approximately 26% of the total current associated with glutamate-induced odor responses. Although Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchangers are known to be present in ORNs from numerous species, this is the first work to demonstrate amplifying contributions of the exchanger current to odor transduction. 相似文献

Using bovine heart sarcolemma vesicles we studied the effects of protons and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns-4,5-P2) on the affinity of the mammalian Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX1) for intracellular Ca(2+). By following the effects of extravesicular ligands in inside-out vesicles, their interactions with sites of NCX1 facing the intracellular medium were investigated. Two Na(+)-gradient-dependent fluxes were studied: Ca(2+) uptake and Ca(2+) release. PtdIns-4,5-P2 binding to NCX1 was investigated in parallel. Without MgATP (no 'de novo' synthesis of PtdIns-4,5-P2), alkalinization increased the affinity for Ca(2+) and the PtdIns-4,5-P2 bound to NCX1. Vesicles depleted of phosphoinositides were insensitive to alkalinization, but became responsive following addition of exogenous PtdIns-4,5-P2 or PtdIns plus MgATP. Acidification reduced the affinity for Ca(2+)(ev); this was only partially reversed by MgATP, despite the increase in bound PtdIns-4,5-P2 to levels observed with alkalinization. Inhibition of Ca(2+) uptake by increasing extravesicular [Na(+)] indicates that it is related to H(+)(i) and Na(+)(i) synergistic inhibition of the Ca(2+)(i) regulatory site. Therefore, the affinity of the NCX1 Ca(2+)(i) regulatory site for Ca(2+) was maximal when both intracellular alkalinization and an increase in PtdIns-4,5-P2 bound to NCX1 (not just of the total membrane PtdIns-4,5-P2) occurred simultaneously. In addition, protons influenced the distribution, or the exposure, of PtdIns-4,5-P2 molecules in the surroundings and/or on the exchanger protein. 相似文献

Phagocytosis and the ensuing NADPH-mediated respiratory burst are important aspects of microglial activation that require calcium ion (Ca(2+)) influx. However, the specific Ca(2+) entry pathway(s) that regulates this mechanism remains unclear, with the best candidates being surface membrane Ca(2+)-permeable ion channels or Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchangers. In order to address this issue, we used quantitative real-time RT-PCR to assess mRNA expression of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchangers, Slc8a1-3/NCX1-3, before and after phagocytosis by rat microglia. All three Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchangers were expressed, with mRNA levels of NCX1 > NCX3 > NCX2, and were unaltered during the one hour phagocytosis period. We then carried out a biophysical characterization of Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger activity in these cells. To investigate conditions under which Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange was functional, we used a combination of perforated patch-clamp analysis, fluorescence imaging of a Ca(2+) indicator (Fura-2) and a Na(+) indicator (SBFI), and manipulations of membrane potential and intracellular and extracellular ions. Then, we used a pharmacological toolbox to compare the contribution of Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange with candidate Ca(2+)-permeable channels, to the NADPH-mediated respiratory burst that was triggered by phagocytosis. We find that inhibiting the reversed mode of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger with KB-R7943, dose dependently reduced the phagocytosis-stimulated respiratory burst; whereas, blockers of store-operated Ca(2+) channels or L-type voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels had no effect. These results provide evidence that Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchangers are potential therapeutic targets for reducing the bystander damage that often results from microglia activation in the damaged CNS. 相似文献

We extended the model of the ventricular myocyte by Winslow et al. (Circ. Res 1999, 84:571-586) by incorporating equations for Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) buffering and transport by ATP and ADP and equations for MgATP regulation of ion transporters (Na(+)-K(+) pump, sarcolemmal and sarcoplasmic Ca(2+) pumps). The results indicate that, under normal conditions, Ca(2+) binding by low-affinity ATP and diffusion of CaATP may affect the amplitude and time course of intracellular Ca(2+) signals. The model also suggests that a fall in ATP/ADP ratio significantly reduces sarcoplasmic Ca(2+) content, increases diastolic Ca(2+), lowers systolic Ca(2+), increases Ca(2+) influx through L-type channels, and decreases the efficiency of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger in extruding Ca(2+) during periodic voltage-clamp stimulation. The analysis suggests that the most important reason for these changes during metabolic inhibition is the down-regulation of the sarcoplasmic Ca(2+)-ATPase pump by reduced diastolic MgATP levels. High Ca(2+) concentrations developed near the membrane might have a greater influence on Mg(2+), ATP, and ADP concentrations than that of the lower Ca(2+) concentrations in the bulk myoplasm. The model predictions are in general agreement with experimental observations measured under normal and pathological conditions. 相似文献

Calcium levels in the presynaptic nerve terminal are altered by several pathways, including voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels, the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger, Ca(2+)-ATPase, and the mitochondria. The influx pathway for homeostatic control of [Ca(2+)](i) in the nerve terminal has been unclear. One approach to detecting the pathway that maintains internal Ca(2+) is to test for activation of Ca(2+) influx following Ca(2+) depletion. Here, we demonstrate that a constitutive influx pathway for Ca(2+) exists in presynaptic terminals to maintain internal Ca(2+) independent of voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels and Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange, as measured in intact isolated nerve endings from mouse cortex and in intact varicosities in a neuronal cell line using fluorescence spectroscopy and confocal imaging. The Mg(2+) and lanthanide sensitivity of the influx pathway, in addition to its pharmacological and short hairpin RNA sensitivity, and the results of immunostaining for transient receptor potential (TRP) channels indicate the involvement of TRPC channels, possibly TRPC5 and TRPC1. This constitutive Ca(2+) influx pathway likely serves to maintain synaptic function under widely varying levels of synaptic activity. 相似文献

Dopamine-induced graded intracellular Ca2+ elevation via the Na+Ca2+ exchanger operating in the Ca2+-entry mode in cockroach salivary ducts 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Stimulation with the neurotransmitter dopamine causes an amplitude-modulated increase in the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in epithelial cells of the ducts of cockroach salivary glands. This is completely attributable to a Ca(2+) influx from the extracellular space. Additionally, dopamine induces a massive [Na(+)](i) elevation via the Na(+)K(+)2Cl(-) cotransporter (NKCC). We have reasoned that Ca(2+)-entry is mediated by the Na(+)Ca(2+) exchanger (NCE) operating in the Ca(2+)-entry mode. To test this hypothesis, [Ca(2+)](i) and [Na(+)](i) were measured by using the fluorescent dyes Fura-2, Fluo-3, and SBFI. Inhibition of Na(+)-entry from the extracellular space by removal of extracellular Na(+) or inhibition of the NKCC by 10 microM bumetanide did not influence resting [Ca(2+)](i) but completely abolished the dopamine-induced [Ca(2+)](i) elevation. Simultaneous recordings of [Ca(2+)](i) and [Na(+)](i) revealed that the dopamine-induced [Na(+)](i) elevation preceded the [Ca(2+)](i) elevation. During dopamine stimulation, the generation of an outward Na(+) concentration gradient by removal of extracellular Na(+) boosted the [Ca(2+)](i) elevation. Furthermore, prolonging the dopamine-induced [Na(+)](i) rise by blocking the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase reduced the recovery from [Ca(2+)](i) elevation. These results indicate that dopamine induces a massive NKCC-mediated elevation in [Na(+)](i), which reverses the NCE activity into the reverse mode causing a graded [Ca(2+)](i) elevation in the duct cells. 相似文献

The plasma membrane Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) plays a role in regulation of intracellular Ca(2+) concentration via the forward mode (Ca(2+) efflux) or the reverse mode (Ca(2+) influx). To define the physiological function of the exchanger in vivo, we generated mice deficient for NCX2, the major isoform in the brain. Mutant hippocampal neurons exhibited a significantly delayed clearance of elevated Ca(2+) following depolarization. The frequency threshold for LTP and LTD in the hippocampal CA1 region was shifted to a lowered frequency in the mutant mice, thereby favoring LTP. Behaviorally, the mutant mice exhibited enhanced performance in several hippocampus-dependent learning and memory tasks. These results demonstrate that NCX2 can be a temporal regulator of Ca(2+) homeostasis and as such is essential for the control of synaptic plasticity and cognition. 相似文献

Powered by the steep mitochondrial membrane potential Ca(2+) permeates into the mitochondria via the Ca(2+) uniporter and is then extruded by a mitochondrial Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger. This mitochondrial Ca(2+) shuttling regulates the rate of ATP production and participates in cellular Ca(2+) signaling. Despite the fact that the exchanger was functionally identified 40 years ago its molecular identity remained a mystery. Early studies on isolated mitochondria and intact cells characterized the functional properties of a mitochondrial Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger, and showed that it possess unique functional fingerprints such as Li(+)/Ca(2+) exchange and that it is displaying selective sensitivity to inhibitors. Purification of mitochondria proteins combined with functional reconstitution led to the isolation of a polypeptide candidate of the exchanger but failed to molecularly identify it. A turning point in the search for the exchanger molecule came with the recent cloning of the last member of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger superfamily termed NCLX (Na(+)/Ca(2+)/Li(+) exchanger). NCLX is localized in the inner mitochondria membrane and its expression is linked to mitochondria Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange matching the functional fingerprints of the putative mitochondrial Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger. Thus NCLX emerges as the long sought mitochondria Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger and provide a critical molecular handle to study mitochondrial Ca(2+) signaling and transport. Here we summarize some of the main topics related to the molecular properties of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger, beginning with the early days of its functional identification, its kinetic properties and regulation, and culminating in its molecular identification. 相似文献

The superfamily of cation/Ca(2+) exchangers includes both Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchangers (NCXs) and Na(+)/Ca(2+),K(+) exchangers (NCKX) as the families characterized in most detail. These Ca(2+) transporters have prominent physiological roles. For example, NCX and NCKX are important in regulation of cardiac contractility and visual processes, respectively. The superfamily also has a large number of members of the YrbG family expressed in prokaryotes. However, no members of this family have been functionally expressed, and their transport properties are unknown. We have expressed, purified, and characterized a member of the YrbG family, MaX1 from Methanosarcina acetivorans. MaX1 catalyzes Ca(2+) uptake into membrane vesicles. The Ca(2+) uptake requires intravesicular Na(+) and is stimulated by an inside positive membrane potential. Despite very limited sequence similarity, MaX1 is a Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger with kinetic properties similar to those of NCX. The availability of a prokaryotic Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger should facilitate structural and mechanistic investigations. 相似文献

Design, synthesis and structure-activity relationships for 3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-quinazolinone derivatives with the inhibitory activities of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger are discussed. These studies based on lead compound 1a lead to the discovery of a structurally novel and highly potent inhibitor against the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger 4f (SM-15811), which directly inhibited the Na(+)-dependent Ca(2+) influx via the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger in cardiomyocytes with a high potency. 相似文献

The Na?/Ca2? exchangers are structural membrane proteins, essential for the extrusion of Ca2? from most animal cells. Apart from the transport sites, they have several interacting ionic and metabolic sites located at the intracellular loop of the exchanger protein. One of these, the intracellular Ca2? regulatory sites, are essential and must be occupied by Ca2? to allow any type of ion (Na? or Ca2?) translocation. Intracellular protons and Na? are inhibitory by reducing the affinity of the regulatory sites for Ca2?; MgATP stimulates by antagonizing H? and Na?. We have proposed a kinetic scheme to explain all ionic and metabolic regulation of the squid nerve Na?/Ca2? exchanger. This model uniquely accounts for most of the new kinetic data provided here; however, none of the existing models can explain the trans effects of the Ca(i)2?-regulatory sites on external cation transport sites; i.e. all models are incomplete. MgATP up-regulation of the squid Na?/Ca2? exchanger requires a cytosolic protein, which has been recently identified as a member of the lipocalin super family of Lipid Binding Proteins (LBP or FABP) of 132 amino acids (ReP1-NCXSQ, access to GenBank EU981897). This protein was cloned, expressed and purified. To be active, ReP1-NCXSQ must be phosphorylated from MgATP by a kinase present in the plasma membrane. Phosphorylated ReP1-NCXSQ can stimulate the exchanger in the absence of ATP. Experiments with proteoliposomes proved that this up-regulation can take place just with the lipid membrane and the exchanger protein. The structure of ReP1-NCXSQ predicted from the amino acid sequence has been confirmed by X-ray crystal analysis; it has a "barrel" formed by ten beta sheets and two alpha helices, with a lipid coordinated by hydrogen bonds with Arg 126 and Tyr 128. 相似文献

We have previously shown that there is high Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange (NCX) activity in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. In this study, by monitoring the [Ca(2+)](i) change in single cells and in a population of chromaffin cells, when the reverse mode of exchanger activity has been initiated, we have shown that the NCX activity is enhanced by K(+). The K(+)-enhanced activity accounted for a significant proportion of the Na(+)-dependent Ca(2+) uptake activity in the chromaffin cells. The results support the hypothesis that both NCX and Na(+)/Ca(2+)-K(+) exchanger (NCKX) are co-present in chromaffin cells. The expression of NCKX in chromaffin cells was further confirmed using PCR and northern blotting. In addition to the plasma membrane, the exchanger activity, measured by Na(+)-dependent (45)Ca(2+) uptake, was also present in membrane isolated from the chromaffin granules enriched fraction and the mitochondria enriched fraction. The results support that both NCX and NCKX are present in bovine chromaffin cells and that the regulation of [Ca(2+)](i) is probably more efficient with the participation of NCKX. 相似文献

Enhanced gene expression of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger in failing hearts may be a compensatory mechanism to promote influx and efflux of Ca(2+), despite impairment of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). To explore this, we monitored intracellular calcium (Ca(i)(2+)) and cardiac function in mouse hearts engineered to overexpress the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger and subjected to ischemia and hypoxia, conditions known to impair SR Ca(i)(2+) transport and contractility. Although baseline Ca(i)(2+) and function were similar between transgenic and wild-type hearts, significant differences were observed during ischemia and hypoxia. During early ischemia, Ca(i)(2+) was preserved in transgenic hearts but significantly altered in wild-type hearts. Transgenic hearts maintained 40% of pressure-generating capacity during early ischemia, whereas wild-type hearts maintained only 25% (P < 0.01). During hypoxia, neither peak nor diastolic Ca(i)(2+) decreased in transgenic hearts. In contrast, both peak and diastolic Ca(i)(2+) decreased significantly in wild-type hearts. The decline of Ca(i)(2+) was abbreviated in hypoxic transgenic hearts but prolonged in wild-type hearts. Peak systolic pressure decreased by nearly 10% in hypoxic transgenic hearts and >25% in wild-type hearts (P < 0.001). These data demonstrate that enhanced gene expression of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger preserves Ca(i)(2+) homeostasis during ischemia and hypoxia, thereby preserving cardiac function in the acutely failing heart. 相似文献

Changes in cytosolic free Mg(2+) and adenosine nucleotide phosphates affect cardiac excitability and contractility. To investigate how modulation by Mg(2+), ATP, and ADP of K(ATP) and L-type Ca(2+) channels influences excitation-contraction coupling, we incorporated equations for intracellular ATP and MgADP regulation of the K(ATP) current and MgATP regulation of the L-type Ca(2+) current in an ionic-metabolic model of the canine ventricular myocyte. The new model: 1), quantitatively reproduces a dose-response relationship for the effects of changes in ATP on K(ATP) current, 2), simulates effects of ADP in modulating ATP sensitivity of K(ATP) channel, 3), predicts activation of Ca(2+) current during rapid increase in MgATP, and 4), demonstrates that decreased ATP/ADP ratio with normal total Mg(2+) or increased free Mg(2+) with normal ATP and ADP activate K(ATP) current, shorten action potential, and alter ionic currents and intracellular Ca(2+) signals. The model predictions are in agreement with experimental data measured under normal and a variety of pathological conditions. 相似文献
