Calcium entry through plasma membrane calcium channels is one of the most important cell signaling mechanism involved in such diverse functions as secretion, contraction and cell growth by regulating gene expression, proliferation and apoptosis. The identity of plasma membrane calcium channels, the main regulators of calcium entry, involved in cell proliferation has been thus extensively sought. Among these, a calcium entry pathway called capacitative calcium entry (CCE), activated by calcium store depletion, is particularly important in non-excitable cells. Though this capacitative calcium entry is generally supposed to occur through TRP channels there is some evidence that voltage-dependent T-type calcium channels may contribute to calcium entry after store depletion. Here we show that though mibefradil, a T-type calcium channel blocker, is able to reduce capacitative calcium entry induced by either thapsigargin or ATP, this was not mimicked by any other T-type calcium channel inhibitors even in cells overexpressing alpha(1H) T-type calcium channels, leading us to conclude that T-type calcium channels are not responsible for the capacitative calcium entry observed in different cancer cell lines. On the contrary, we show that the action of mibefradil on capacitative calcium entry is due to an action on store-operated calcium channels. 相似文献

When G0-arrested BALB/c 3T3 cells were treated sequentially with platelet-derived growth factor and epidermal growth factor, cells became responsive to insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I). In these primed competent cells, 1 nM IGF-I elicited an approximately 3-fold increase in the calcium influx rate. IGF-I-induced calcium influx was relatively slow in onset and continued for at least 2 h in the presence of IGF-I. When a single Ca2+ channel current was studied by the patch-clamp technique using the cell-attached mode, inward currents with unitary conductance of 19 pS were observed in the presence of 1 nM IGF-I in the patch pipette. IGF-I-sensitive inward current was independent of membrane potential and was activated by a high concentration of insulin. Accordingly, 1 nM IGF-I caused a gradual increase in cytoplasmic free calcium concentration measured by fura2. The action of IGF-I on calcium influx was dependent on extracellular calcium, and IGF-I did not stimulate calcium influx when extracellular calcium concentration was reduced to 10 microM. Both cobalt and tetramethrin blocked the action of IGF-I on calcium influx without affecting the binding of 125I-IGF-I. In primed competent cells, IGF-I-stimulated [3H]thymidine incorporation was dependent on extracellular calcium and was attenuated by cobalt and tetramethrin. When cell-bound 125I-IGF-I was cross-linked by use of disuccinimidyl suberate, a 130-kDa protein was radiolabeled. Affinity labeling of the 130-kDa protein, presumably the alpha-subunit of the IGF-I receptor, was blocked by excess amount of unlabeled IGF-I. These results suggest that relatively low concentrations of IGF-I stimulate calcium influx in primed competent BALB/c 3T3 cells by activating a calcium-permeable cation channel via the IGF-I receptor and that calcium influx may be a critical intracellular message of the progression activity of IGF-I. 相似文献

Calcium channels must be subjected to a very precise regulation in order to preserve cell function and viability. Voltage gated calcium channels (VGCC) represent the main pathway for calcium entry in excitable cells. This explains why depolarization induces a rapid-onset and short-term inactivation of calcium currents. Contrarily to this well-documented mechanism to maintain calcium below toxic levels, the regulatory pathways inducing longer-lasting changes and cell surface expression of functional calcium channels are largely unknown. Since calcium is a main player in the activity-dependent regulation of many genes, we hypothesize that calcium channel coding genes could be also subjected to activity-dependent regulation. We have used prolonged depolarization to analyze the effects of sustained intracellular calcium elevation on the mRNAs coding for the different alpha(1) pore-forming subunits of the calcium channels expressed in chromaffin cells. Our findings reveal that persistent depolarization is accompanied by a prolonged intracellular calcium elevation and reduction of calcium current. This calcium current inhibition could be mediated, at least partially, by the downregulation of the mRNAs coding for several alpha(1) subunits. Thus, we show here that depolarization inhibits the expression of Ca(V)1.1, Ca(V)1.2, Ca(V)1.3, Ca(V)2.2 and Ca(V)2.3 mRNAs, while the Ca(V)2.1 mRNA remains unmodified. Moreover, such downregulation of channels depends on calcium entry through the L-type calcium channel, as both mRNA and calcium current changes induced by depolarization are abrogated by L-type channel specific blockers. 相似文献

Using the patch–clamp method, mechanosensitive regulation of ion channels was studied in cultivated 3T3 and 3T3-SV40 fibroblasts. The activity of mechanosensitive cation channels with a conductivity 25 pS in response to plasma-membrane stretching was observed in both cell lines. Despite obvious differences in the actin network in normal and transformed cells, the threshold values of the stimulus required for the channel activation were close and were approximately 55 mm Hg. The frequency of channels was significantly higher in transformed 3T3-SV40 fibroblasts than in their untransformed 3T3 analogs. Coupled activation of mechanosensitive calcium-permeable channels and potassium calcium-controlled channels was found in both cell lines. The analysis of flows through single channels allows to detect functional interaction of different channels: stretch-induced local calcium entry activates potassium channels that do not have their own mechanosensitivity. The results of a comparative study show that there is a fundamental similarity between the ion mechanisms of cellular mechanotransduction in normal and transformed fibroblasts. The quantitative differences, first of all, concern the level of functional activity of mechanosensitive channels that provide the development of the local calcium signal in the near-membrane cell region. 相似文献

We studied the ionic currents activated by basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAE-1) by using patch-clamp and single-cell fluorimetric calcium measurements. In whole-cell, voltage-clamp experiments at V(h) = -50 mV, the addition of either bFGF (20 ng/ml) or IGF-I (50 ng/ml) induced an inward current with similar amplitude, time course, and permeation properties. The response was dependent on receptor occupancy and showed a desensitisation in the continued presence of the factors. Ionic substitutions in whole-cell experiments indicated that the current barely discriminated among Na(+), Ca(+), and K(+) ions. Accordingly, stimulation with bFGF or IGF-I induced a dose-dependent [Ca(2+)](i) elevation completely due to entry from the extracellular medium, whereas no detectable release from internal stores was observed. Calcium influx was dependent on protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) activity; it was significantly inhibited by treatment with genistein or tyrphostin 47, two PTK inhibitors, and not affected by inactive analogues, daidzein, and tyrphostin 1. Moreover, addition of 200 microM Na(3)VO(4), an inhibitor of protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) activity, evoked the responses to the factors both in patch-clamp and in fluorimetric measurements. Cell-attached recordings using 100 mM CaCl(2) in the pipette showed that bFGF and IGF-I activate calcium-permeable channels with similar properties. These results provide evidence for a calcium influx induced by two factors that bind to tyrosine kinase receptors (RTK) in endothelial cells. 相似文献

Erythropoietin modulates calcium influx through TRPC2 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Mammalian isoforms of calcium-permeable Drosophila transient receptor potential channels (TRPC) are involved in the sustained phase of calcium entry in nonexcitable cells. Erythropoietin (Epo) stimulates a rise in intracellular calcium ([Ca](i)) via activation of voltage-independent calcium channel(s) in erythroid cells. Here, involvement of murine orthologs of classical TRPC in the Epo-modulated increase in [Ca](i) was examined. RT-PCR of TRPC 1-6 revealed high expression of only TRPC2 in Epo-dependent cell lines HCD-57 and Ba/F3 Epo-R, in which Epo stimulates a rise in [Ca](i). Using RT-PCR, Western blotting, and immunolocalization, expression of the longest isoform of mTRPC2, clone 14, was demonstrated in HCD-57 cells, Ba/F3 Epo-R cells, and primary murine erythroblasts. To determine whether erythropoietin is capable of modulating calcium influx through TRPC2, CHO cells were cotransfected with Epo-R subcloned into pTracer-CMV and either murine TRPC2 clone 14 or TRPC6, a negative control, into pQBI50. Successful transfection of Epo-R was verified in single cells by detection of green fluorescent protein from pTracer-CMV using digital video imaging, and successful transfection of TRPC was confirmed by detection of blue fluorescent protein fused through a flexible linker to TRPC. [Ca](i) changes were simultaneously monitored in cells loaded with Rhod-2 or Fura Red. Epo stimulation of CHO cells cotransfected with Epo-R and TRPC2 resulted in a rise in [Ca](i) above base line (372 +/- 71%), which was significantly greater (p < or = 0.0007) than that seen in cells transfected with TRPC6 or empty pQBI50 vector. This rise in [Ca](i) required Epo and extracellular calcium. These results identify a calcium-permeable channel, TRPC2, in erythroid cells and demonstrate modulation of calcium influx through this channel by erythropoietin. 相似文献

Transient Receptor Potential Canonical (TRPC) proteins have been identified in mammals as a family of plasma membrane calcium-permeable channels activated by different kinds of stimuli in several cell types. We have studied TRPC subunit expression in bovine aortic endothelial (BAE-1) cells, where stimulation with basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), a potent angiogenetic factor, induces calcium entry carried at least partially by TRPC1 channels. By means of a RT-PCR approach, we have found that, in addition to TRPC1, only TRPC4 is expressed, both at the mRNA and protein level, as confirmed by immunoblotting and immunocytochemical analysis. Because functional TRPC channels are formed by assembly of four subunits in either homo- or heterotetrameric structures, we have carried out immunoprecipitation experiments and showed that TRPC1 and TRPC4 interact to form heteromers in these cells, independently from culture conditions (high or low percent of fetal calf serum, stimulation with bFGF). Moreover, the data show that TRPC subunits are not tyrosine-phosphorylated after bFGF stimulation and they do not co-immunoprecipitate with the type 1 FGF receptor. These results suggest that BAE-1 cells are a suitable model to study function and regulation of endogenous TRPC1/TRPC4 heteromers. 相似文献

Voltage-gated calcium channels couple changes in membrane potential to neuronal functions regulated by calcium, including neurotransmitter release. Here we report that presynaptic N-type calcium channels not only control neurotransmitter release but also regulate synaptic growth at Drosophila neuromuscular junctions. In a screen for behavioral mutants that disrupt synaptic transmission, an allele of the N-type calcium channel locus (Dmca1A) was identified that caused synaptic undergrowth. The underlying molecular defect was identified as a neutralization of a charged residue in the third S4 voltage sensor. RNA interference reduction of N-type calcium channel expression also reduced synaptic growth. Hypomorphic mutations in syntaxin-1A or n-synaptobrevin, which also disrupt neurotransmitter release, did not affect synapse proliferation at the neuromuscular junction, suggesting calcium entry through presynaptic N-type calcium channels, not neurotransmitter release per se, is important for synaptic growth. The reduced synapse proliferation in Dmca1A mutants is not due to increased synapse retraction but instead reflects a role for calcium influx in synaptic growth mechanisms. These results suggest N-type channels participate in synaptic growth through signaling pathways that are distinct from those that mediate neurotransmitter release. Linking presynaptic voltage-gated calcium entry to downstream calcium-sensitive synaptic growth regulators provides an efficient activity-dependent mechanism for modifying synaptic strength. 相似文献

T-type calcium channels represent a key pathway for Ca(2+) entry near the resting membrane potential. Increasing evidence supports a unique role of these channels in fast and low-threshold exocytosis in an action potential-independent manner, but the underlying molecular mechanisms have remained unknown. Here, we report the existence of a syntaxin-1A/Ca(v)3.2 T-type calcium channel signaling complex that relies on molecular determinants that are distinct from the synaptic protein interaction site (synprint) found in synaptic high voltage-activated calcium channels. This interaction potently modulated Ca(v)3.2 channel activity, by reducing channel availability. Other members of the T-type calcium channel family were also regulated by syntaxin-1A, but to a smaller extent. Overexpression of Ca(v)3.2 channels in MPC 9/3L-AH chromaffin cells induced low-threshold secretion that could be prevented by uncoupling the channels from syntaxin-1A. Altogether, our findings provide compelling evidence for the existence of a syntaxin-1A/T-type Ca(2+) channel signaling complex and provide new insights into the molecular mechanism by which these channels control low-threshold exocytosis. 相似文献

Whole-cell functional assays are often used for high-throughput screening (HTS) of molecular targets such as ion channels and G-protein-coupled receptors. A common method for assaying the activity of these membrane proteins is to measure the change in intracellular calcium concentration upon receptor stimulation. These changes in calcium concentration are typically transient and therefore not readily adapted to high-density plate formats used in HTS instruments. We have demonstrated that an intracellular calcium chelator, BAPTA, was able to delay by 5- to 20-fold and extend for several minutes the observed calcium signals initiated by extracellular calcium influx or release of calcium from intracellular stores. As examples, we used cells expressing a calcium-permeable ion channel, vanilloid receptor type 1 (the capsaicin receptor), and two G-protein-coupled receptors. These receptor-mediated increases in intracellular calcium concentration were measured by both fluorescence-based and luminescence-based detection methods. The use of an intracellular calcium chelator to delay calcium signaling should have wide application since it allows the measurement of the functional activity of any cellular receptor that signals through calcium. With this procedure, calcium fluorescence and luminescence whole-cell functional assays may be performed with standard laboratory pipetting and detection systems. 相似文献

Recent evidences suggest a role for arachidonic acid (AA) in the triggering of store-independent, ornon-capacitative, calcium entry in different cell types. Here, using patch clamp and fluorimetric single-cell calcium measurements, we provide evidence for AA-activated calcium influx in bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAEC). AA-activated calcium entry is independent from intracellular calcium stores depletion at low doses of the fatty acid (< 5 microM) and insensitive to a decrease of pH to 6.7. Single-channel analysis in inside-out configuration reveals the presence of a family of AA-activated calcium-permeable channels, with different conductances and reversal potentials. Treatment with AA or ETYA induces a proliferative effect, significantly affected by external EGTA application during the early period (up to 2h) of stimulation with the agonists. We conclude that low concentrations of arachidonic acid are able to evoke a store-independent calcium influx, exerting a mitogenic role in BAECs. 相似文献

Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) is a ubiquitous mechanism that is mediated by distinct SOC channels, ranging from the highly selective calcium release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel in rat basophilic leukemia and other hematopoietic cells to relatively Ca2+-selective or non-selective SOC channels in other cells. Although the exact composition of these channels is not yet established, TRPC1 contributes to SOC channels and regulation of physiological function of a variety of cell types. Recently, Orai1 and STIM1 have been suggested to be sufficient for generating CRAC channels. Here we show that Orai1 and STIM1 are also required for TRPC1-SOC channels. Knockdown of TRPC1, Orai1, or STIM1 attenuated, whereas overexpression of TRPC1, but not Orai1 or STIM1, induced an increase in SOC entry and I(SOC) in human salivary gland cells. All three proteins were co-localized in the plasma membrane region of cells, and thapsigargin increased co-immunoprecipitation of TRPC1 with STIM1, and Orai1 in human salivary gland cells as well as dispersed mouse submandibular gland cells. In aggregate, the data presented here reveal that all three proteins are essential for generation of I(SOC) in these cells and that dynamic assembly of TRPC1-STIM1-Orai1 ternary complex is involved in activation of SOC channel in response to internal Ca2+ store depletion. Thus, these data suggest a common molecular basis for SOC and CRAC channels. 相似文献

Voltage-gated calcium channels are key sources of calcium entry into the cytosol of many excitable tissues. A number of different types of calcium channels have been identified and shown to mediate specialized cellular functions. Because of their fundamental nature, they are important targets for therapeutic intervention in disorders such as hypertension, pain, stroke, and epilepsy. Calcium channel antagonists fall into one of the following three groups: small inorganic ions, large peptide blockers, and small organic molecules. Inorganic ions nonselectively inhibit calcium entry by physical pore occlusion and are of little therapeutic value. Calcium-channel-blocking peptides isolated from various predatory animals such as spiders and cone snails are often highly selective blockers of individual types of calcium channels, either by preventing calcium flux through the pore or by antagonizing channel activation. There are many structure-activity-relation classes of small organic molecules that interact with various sites on the calcium channel protein, with actions ranging from selective high affinity block to relatively nondiscriminatory action on multiple calcium channel isoforms. Detailed interactions with the calcium channel protein are well understood for the dihydropyridine and phenylalkylamine drug classes, whereas we are only beginning to understand the molecular actions of some of the more recently discovered calcium channel blockers. Here, we provide a comprehensive review of pharmacology of high voltage-activated calcium channels. 相似文献

Arachidonic acid (AA, 20:4) has been reported to modulate a variety of calcium-permeable ionic channels, both in the plasma membrane and in the endoplasmic reticulum. We have studied the effects of AA on calcium signaling in a well-characterized model of developing peripheral neurons, embryonic chick ciliary ganglion neurons in culture. When given at low non-micellar concentrations (5 microM), in the majority of cells AA directly activated a delayed and long-lasting increase in [Ca2+]i, involving both the cytoplasm and the nucleoplasm, that was completely reversed by abolition of extracellular calcium. Other fatty acids (FAs), either saturated like arachidic acid (20:0), or unsaturated like linoleic (18:2) and docosahexaenoic acid (22:6), shared its ability to activate calcium influx. This entry was not suppressed by voltage-dependent calcium channel inhibitors omega-conotoxin and nifedipine, by the voltage-independent calcium channel antagonist LOE-908, by pre-treatment with blockers of AA metabolic pathways or with pertussis toxin. The arachidonate-activated calcium pathway was permeable to Mn2+ and blocked by La3+, Gd3+ and Ni2+. In a neuronal subpopulation, AA at the same concentration was also able to elicit calcium release from thapsigargin-sensitive intracellular stores; we provide evidence that cytochrome P450 epoxygenase is involved in this process. 相似文献

Store-operated calcium (SOC) entry is the most prominent mode of calcium entry in nonexcitable cells, although important questions
remain regarding its mechanism(s) of activation and the molecular identity of SOC entry channels. Recent work using Drosophila melanogaster and mammalian cells suggest that myosin may play a central role in regulation of the open state of SOC entry channels. The
most direct evidence for such a role for myosin motor function is in the Drosophila rhabdomere, where a myosin homolog appears to terminate channel signaling. Studies directly examining the contribution of
myosin to mammalian SOC entry are lacking. However, several indirect lines of evidence support a role for myosin motor function
in the control of calcium entry. Both inhibition of myosin light-chain kinase (the kinase responsible for myosin activation)
and disruption of filamentous actin (the track for actomyosin motor function) reduces SOC entry and appear to prevent activation
of a calcium-selective SOC entry current. Thus this review summarizes data—emphasizing recent evidence in mammalian systems—implicating
myosin motor function in the control of SOC entry. 相似文献

Disruption of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex caused by genetic defects of dystrophin or sarcoglycans results in muscular dystrophy and/or cardiomyopathy in humans and animal models. However, the key early molecular events leading to myocyte degeneration remain elusive. Here, we observed that the growth factor-regulated channel (GRC), which belongs to the transient receptor potential channel family, is elevated in the sarcolemma of skeletal and/or cardiac muscle in dystrophic human patients and animal models deficient in dystrophin or delta-sarcoglycan. However, total cell GRC does not differ markedly between normal and dystrophic muscles. Analysis of the properties of myotubes prepared from delta-sarcoglycan-deficient BIO14.6 hamsters revealed that GRC is activated in response to myocyte stretch and is responsible for enhanced Ca2+ influx and resultant cell damage as measured by creatine phosphokinase efflux. We found that cell stretch increases GRC translocation to the sarcolemma, which requires entry of external Ca2+. Consistent with these findings, cardiac-specific expression of GRC in a transgenic mouse model produced cardiomyopathy due to Ca2+ overloading, with disease expression roughly parallel to sarcolemmal GRC levels. The results suggest that GRC is a key player in the pathogenesis of myocyte degeneration caused by dystrophin-glycoprotein complex disruption. 相似文献
