In atrial myocytes lacking t-tubules, action potential triggers junctional Ca2+ releases in the cell periphery, which propagates into the cell interior. The present article describes growing evidence on atrial local Ca2+ signaling and on the functions of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) in atrial myocytes, and show our new findings on the role of IP3R subtype in the regulation of spontaneous focal Ca2+ releases in the compartmentalized areas of atrial myocytes. The Ca2+ sparks, representing focal Ca2+ releases from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) through the ryanodine receptor (RyR) clusters, occur most frequently at the peripheral junctions in isolated resting atrial cells. The Ca2+ sparks that were darker and longer lasting than peripheral and non-junctional (central) sparks, were found at peri-nuclear sites in rat atrial myocytes. Peri-nuclear sparks occurred more frequently than central sparks. Atrial cells express larger amounts of IP3Rs compared with ventricular cells and possess significant levels of type 1 IP3R (IP3R1) and type 2 IP3R (IP3R2). Over the last decade the roles of atrial IP3R on the enhancement of Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release and arrhythmic Ca2+ releases under hormonal stimulations have been well documented. Using protein knock-down method and confocal Ca2+ imaging in conjunction with immunocytochemistry in the adult atrial cell line HL-1, we could demonstrate a role of IP3R1 in the maintenance of peri-nuclear and non-junctional Ca2+ sparks via stimulating a posttranslational organization of RyR clusters. 相似文献

Overactivation of ionotropic glutamate receptors in oligodendrocytes induces cytosolic Ca2+ overload and excitotoxic death, a process that contributes to demyelination and multiple sclerosis. Excitotoxic insults cause well-characterized mitochondrial alterations and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) dysfunction, which is not fully understood. In this study, we analyzed the contribution of ER-Ca2+ release through ryanodine receptors (RyRs) and inositol triphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) to excitotoxicity in oligodendrocytes in vitro. First, we observed that oligodendrocytes express all previously characterized RyRs and IP3Rs. Blockade of Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release by TMB-8 following α-amino-3-hydroxyl-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionate (AMPA) receptor-mediated insults attenuated both oligodendrocyte death and cytosolic Ca2+ overload. In turn, RyR inhibition by ryanodine reduced as well the Ca2+ overload whereas IP3R inhibition was ineffective. Furthermore, AMPA-triggered mitochondrial membrane depolarization, oxidative stress and activation of caspase-3, which in all instances was diminished by RyR inhibition. In addition, we observed that AMPA induced an ER stress response as revealed by α subunit of the eukaryotic initiation factor 2α phosphorylation, overexpression of GRP chaperones and RyR-dependent cleavage of caspase-12. Finally, attenuating ER stress with salubrinal protected oligodendrocytes from AMPA excitotoxicity. Together, these results show that Ca2+ release through RyRs contributes to cytosolic Ca2+ overload, mitochondrial dysfunction, ER stress and cell death following AMPA receptor-mediated excitotoxicity in oligodendrocytes. 相似文献

Intracellular calcium release channels like ryanodine receptors (RyRs) and inositol trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) mediate large Ca2+ release events from Ca2+ storage organelles lasting >5 ms. To have such long-lasting Ca2+ efflux, a countercurrent of other ions is necessary to prevent the membrane potential from becoming the Ca2+ Nernst potential in <1 ms. A recent model of ion permeation through a single, open RyR channel is used here to show that the vast majority of this countercurrent is conducted by the RyR itself. Consequently, changes in membrane potential are minimized locally and instantly, assuring maintenance of a Ca2+-driving force. This RyR autocountercurrent is possible because of the poor Ca2+ selectivity and high conductance for both monovalent and divalent cations of these channels. The model shows that, under physiological conditions, the autocountercurrent clamps the membrane potential near 0 mV within ∼150 μs. Consistent with experiments, the model shows how RyR unit Ca2+ current is defined by luminal [Ca2+], permeable ion composition and concentration, and pore selectivity and conductance. This very likely is true of the highly homologous pore of the IP3R channel. 相似文献

Aims
We previously reported that fluvoxamine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor with high affinity for the σ1-receptor (σ1R), ameliorates cardiac hypertrophy and dysfunction via σ1R stimulation. Although σ1R on non-cardiomyocytes interacts with the IP3 receptor (IP3R) to promote mitochondrial Ca2 + transport, little is known about its physiological and pathological relevance in cardiomyocytes.Main methods
Here we performed Ca2 + imaging and measured ATP production to define the role of σ1Rs in regulating sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR)-mitochondrial Ca2 + transport in neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes treated with angiotensin II to promote hypertrophy.Key finding
These cardiomyocytes exhibited imbalances in expression levels of σ1R and IP3R and impairments in both phenylephrine-induced mitochondrial Ca2 + mobilization from the SR and ATP production. Interestingly, σ1R stimulation with fluvoxamine rescued impaired mitochondrial Ca2 + mobilization and ATP production, an effect abolished by treatment of cells with the σ1R antagonist, NE-100. Under physiological conditions, fluvoxamine stimulation of σ1Rs suppressed intracellular Ca2 + mobilization through IP3Rs and ryanodine receptors (RyRs). In vivo, chronic administration of fluvoxamine to TAC mice also rescued impaired ATP production.Significance
These results suggest that σ1R stimulation with fluvoxamine promotes SR-mitochondrial Ca2 + transport and mitochondrial ATP production, whereas σ1R stimulation suppresses intracellular Ca2 + overload through IP3Rs and RyRs. These mechanisms likely underlie in part the anti-hypertrophic and cardioprotective action of the σ1R agonists including fluvoxamine. 相似文献7.

Ca2+ is an essential second messenger, playing a fundamental role in maintaining cell viability and neuronal activity. Two specific endoplasmic reticulum calcium channels, ryanodine receptors (RyRs) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) play an important role in Ca2+ regulation. In the present study, we provided a 3D structure of RyR and IP3R by homology modeling, and we predicted their interactions with a known neuroprotective compound, 3-thiomethyl-5,6-(dimethoxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazine (TDMT), as well as two inhibitors, dantrolene and 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB). Interestingly, we found that dantrolene and 2-APB can bind to the IP3-binding domain of IP3R and RyR, while TDMT may directly block both channels by interacting with the putative resident domains in the pore. Cell culture experiments showed that these compounds could protect PC12 cells against H2O2-induced apoptosis and activate autophagic pathways. Collectively, our computational (in silico) and cell culture studies suggest that RyR and IP3R are novel and promising targets to be used against neurodegenerative diseases. 相似文献

In the present study, the isolated cricket (Gryllus bimaculatus) lateral oviduct exhibited spontaneous rhythmic contractions (SRCs) with a frequency of 0.29 ± 0.009 Hz (n = 43) and an amplitude of 14.6 ± 1.25 mg (n = 29). SRCs completely disappeared following removal of extracellular Ca2+ using a solution containing 5 mM EGTA. Application of the non-specific Ca2+ channel blockers Co2+, Ni2+, and Cd2+ also decreased both the frequency and amplitude of SRCs in dose-dependent manners, suggesting that Ca2+ entry through plasma membrane Ca2+ channels is essential for the generation of SRCs. Application of ryanodine (30 μM), which depletes intracellular Ca2+ by locking ryanodine receptor (RyR)-Ca2+ channels in an open state, gradually reduced the frequency and amplitude of SRCs. A RyR antagonist, tetracaine, reduced both the frequency and amplitude of SRCs, whereas a RyR activator, caffeine, increased the frequency of SRCs with a subsequent increase in basal tonus, indicating that RyRs are essential for generating SRCs. To further investigate the involvement of phospholipase C (PLC) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) in SRCs, we examined the effect of a PLC inhibitor, U73122, and an IP3R antagonist, 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB), on SRCs. Separately, U73122 (10 μM) and 2-APB (30–50 μM) both significantly reduced the amplitude of SRCs with little effect on their frequency, further indicating that the PLC/IP3R signaling pathway is fundamental to the modulation of the amplitude of SRCs. A hypotonic-induced increase in the frequency and amplitude of SRCs and a hypertonic-induced decrease in the frequency and amplitude of SRCs indicated that mechanical stretch of the lateral oviduct is involved in the generation of SRCs. The sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-pump ATPase inhibitors thapsigargin and cyclopiazonic acid impaired or suppressed the relaxation phase of SRCs. Taken together, the present results indicate that Ca2+ influx through plasma membrane Ca2+ channels and Ca2+ release from RyRs play an essential role in pacing SRCs and that Ca2+ release from IP3Rs may play a role in modulating the amplitude of SRCs, probably via activation of PLC. 相似文献

Haloperidol is an antipsychotic agent that primarily acts as an antagonist of D2 dopamine receptors. Besides other receptor systems, it targets sigma 1 receptors (σ1Rs) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs). Aim of this work was to investigate possible changes in IP3Rs and σ1Rs resulting from haloperidol treatment and to propose physiological consequences in differentiated NG-108 cells, i.e., effect on cellular plasticity. Haloperidol treatment resulted in up-regulation of both type 1 IP3Rs (IP3R1s) and σ1Rs at mRNA and protein levels. Haloperidol treatment did not alter expression of other types of IP3Rs. Calcium release from endoplasmic reticulum (ER) mediated by increased amount of IP3R1s elevated cytosolic calcium and generated ER stress. IP3R1s were bound to σ1Rs, and translocation of this complex from ER to nucleus occurred in the group of cells treated with haloperidol, which was followed by increased nuclear calcium levels. Haloperidol-induced changes in cytosolic, reticular, and nuclear calcium levels were similar when specific σ1 blocker -BD 1047- was used. Changes in calcium levels in nucleus, ER, and cytoplasm might be responsible for alterations in cellular plasticity, because length of neurites increased and number of neurites decreased in haloperidol-treated differentiated NG-108 cells. 相似文献

Bok is a member of the Bcl-2 protein family that controls intrinsic apoptosis. Bok is most closely related to the pro-apoptotic proteins Bak and Bax, but in contrast to Bak and Bax, very little is known about its cellular role. Here we report that Bok binds strongly and constitutively to inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs), proteins that form tetrameric calcium channels in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane and govern the release of ER calcium stores. Bok binds most strongly to IP3R1 and IP3R2, and barely to IP3R3, and essentially all cellular Bok is IP3R bound in cells that express substantial amounts of IP3Rs. Binding to IP3Rs appears to be mediated by the putative BH4 domain of Bok and the docking site localizes to a small region within the coupling domain of IP3Rs (amino acids 1895–1903 of IP3R1) that is adjacent to numerous regulatory sites, including sites for proteolysis. With regard to the possible role of Bok-IP3R binding, the following was observed: (i) Bok does not appear to control the ability of IP3Rs to release ER calcium stores, (ii) Bok regulates IP3R expression, (iii) persistent activation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-dependent cell signaling causes Bok degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, in a manner that parallels IP3R degradation, and (iv) Bok protects IP3Rs from proteolysis, either by chymotrypsin in vitro or by caspase-3 in vivo during apoptosis. Overall, these data show that Bok binds strongly and constitutively to IP3Rs and that the most significant consequence of this binding appears to be protection of IP3Rs from proteolysis. Thus, Bok may govern IP3R cleavage and activity during apoptosis. 相似文献

In order to develop a novel method of visualizing possible Ca~(2+) signaling during the early differentiation of h ESCs into cardiomyocytes and avoid some of the inherent problems associated with using fluorescent reporters, we expressed the bioluminescent Ca~(2+) reporter, apo-aequorin, in HES2 cells and then reconstituted active holo-aequorin by incubation with f-coelenterazine. The temporal nature of the Ca~(2+) signals generated by the holo-f-aequorin-expressing HES2 cells during the earliest stages of differentiation into cardiomyocytes was then investigated. Our data show that no endogenous Ca~(2+) transients(generated by release from intracellular stores) were detected in 1–12-day-old cardiospheres but transients were generated in cardiospheres following stimulation with KCl or Ca Cl_2, indicating that holo-f-aequorin was functional in these cells. Furthermore, following the addition of exogenous ATP, an inositol trisphosphate receptor(IP_3R) agonist, small Ca~(2+) transients were generated from day 1 onward. That ATP was inducing Ca~(2+) release from functional IP_3 Rs was demonstrated by treatment with 2-APB, a known IP_3 R antagonist. In contrast, following treatment with caffeine, a ryanodine receptor(Ry R) agonist, a minimal Ca~(2+) response was observed at day 8 of differentiation only. Thus, our data indicate that unlike Ry Rs, IP_3 Rs are present and continually functional at these early stages of cardiomyocyte differentiation. 相似文献

Puffs are local Ca2+ signals that arise by Ca2+ liberation from the endoplasmic reticulum through the concerted opening of tightly clustered inositol trisphosphate receptors/channels (IP3Rs). The locations of puff sites observed by Ca2+ imaging remain static over several minutes, whereas fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) experiments employing overexpression of fluorescently tagged IP3Rs have shown that the majority of IP3Rs are freely motile. To address this discrepancy, we applied single-molecule imaging to locate and track type 1 IP3Rs tagged with a photoswitchable fluorescent protein and expressed in COS-7 cells. We found that ∼70% of the IP3R1 molecules were freely motile, undergoing random walk motility with an apparent diffusion coefficient of ∼0.095 μm s−1, whereas the remaining molecules were essentially immotile. A fraction of the immotile IP3Rs were organized in clusters, with dimensions (a few hundred nanometers across) comparable to those previously estimated for the IP3R clusters underlying functional puff sites. No short-term (seconds) changes in overall motility or in clustering of immotile IP3Rs were apparent following activation of IP3/Ca2+ signaling. We conclude that stable clusters of small numbers of immotile IP3Rs may underlie local Ca2+ release sites, whereas the more numerous motile IP3Rs appear to be functionally silent. 相似文献

Overactivation of ionotropic glutamate receptors induces a Ca2+ overload into the cytoplasm that leads neurons to excitotoxic death, a process that has been linked to several neurodegenerative disorders. While the role of mitochondria and its involvement in excitotoxicity have been widely studied, the contribution of endoplasmic reticulum (ER), another crucial intracellular store in maintaining Ca2+ homeostasis, is not fully understood. In this study, we analyzed the contribution of ER-Ca2+ release through ryanodine (RyR) and IP3 (IP3R) receptors to a neuronal in vitro model of excitotoxicity. NMDA induced a dose-dependent neuronal death, which was significantly decreased by ER-Ca2+ release inhibitors in cortical neurons as well as in organotypic slices. Furthermore, ryanodine and 2APB, RyR and IP3R inhibitors respectively, attenuated NMDA-triggered intracellular Ca2+ increase and oxidative stress, whereas 2APB reduced mitochondrial membrane depolarization and caspase-3 cleavage. Consistent with ER-Ca2+ homeostasis disruption, we observed that NMDA-induced ER stress, characterized here by eIF2α phosphorylation and over-expression of GRP chaperones which were regulated by ER-Ca2+ release inhibitors. These results demonstrate that Ca2+ release from ER contributes to neuronal death by both promoting mitochondrial dysfunction and inducing specific stress and apoptosis pathways during excitotoxicity. 相似文献

HL-1 cells are the adult cardiac cell lines available that continuously divide while maintaining an atrial phenotype. Here
we examined the expression and localization of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) subtypes, and investigated how pattern of IP3-induced subcellular local Ca2+ signaling is encoded by multiple IP3R subtypes in HL-1 cells. The type 1 IP3R (IP3R1) was expressed in the perinucleus with a diffuse pattern and the type 2 IP3R (IP3R2) was expressed in the cytosol with a punctate distribution. Extracellular ATP (1 mM) elicited transient intracellular Ca2+ releases accompanied by a Ca2+ oscillation, which was eliminated by the blocker of IP3Rs, 2-APB, and attenuated by ryanodine. Direct introduction of IP3 into the permeabilized cells induced Ca2+ transients with Ca2+ oscillations at ⩾ 20 μM of IP3, which was removed by the inhibition of IP3Rs using 2-APB and heparin. IP3-induced local Ca2+ transients contained two distinct time courses: a rapid oscillation and a monophasic Ca2+ transient. The magnitude of Ca2+ oscillation was significantly larger in the cytosol than in the nucleus, while the monophasic Ca2+ transient was more pronounced in the nucleus. These results provide evidence for the molecular and functional expression
of IP3R1 and IP3R2 in HL-1 cells, and suggest that such distinct local Ca2+ signaling may be correlated with the punctate distribution of IP3R2s in the cytosol and the diffuse localization of IP3R1 in the peri-nucleus. 相似文献

Background
Granulosa cells play an important endocrine role in folliculogenesis. They mobilize Ca2+ from intracellular stores by a coordinated action between 1,4,5 inositol trisphosphate and ryanodine receptors (IP3R and RyR). The aim of this study was to explore the isoforms of IP3Rs expressed in mouse C57BL/6 NHsd granulosa cells, characterizing their intranuclear localization and the relation with other Ca2+-handling proteins. 相似文献16.
We recently reported key physiologic roles for Ca2+-activated transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (TRPM4) channels in detrusor smooth muscle (DSM). However, the Ca2+-signaling mechanisms governing TRPM4 channel activity in human DSM cells are unexplored. As the TRPM4 channels are activated by Ca2+, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R)-mediated Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum represents a potential Ca2+ source for TRPM4 channel activation. We used clinically-characterized human DSM tissues to investigate the molecular and functional interactions of the IP3Rs and TRPM4 channels. With in situ proximity ligation assay (PLA) and perforated patch-clamp electrophysiology, we tested the hypothesis that TRPM4 channels are tightly associated with the IP3Rs and are activated by IP3R-mediated Ca2+ release in human DSM. With in situ PLA, we demonstrated co-localization of the TRPM4 channels and IP3Rs in human DSM cells. As the TRPM4 channels and IP3Rs must be located within close apposition to functionally interact, these findings support the concept of a potential Ca2+-mediated TRPM4-IP3R regulatory mechanism. To investigate IP3R regulation of TRPM4 channel activity, we sought to determine the consequences of IP3R pharmacological inhibition on TRPM4 channel-mediated transient inward cation currents (TICCs). In freshly-isolated human DSM cells, blocking the IP3Rs with the selective IP3R inhibitor xestospongin-C significantly decreased TICCs. The data suggest that IP3Rs have a key role in mediating the Ca2+-dependent activation of TRPM4 channels in human DSM. The study provides novel insight into the molecular and cellular mechanisms regulating TRPM4 channels by revealing that TRPM4 channels and IP3Rs are spatially and functionally coupled in human DSM. 相似文献

Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) are intracellular Ca2+ channels. Their regulation by both IP3 and Ca2+ allows interactions between IP3Rs to generate a hierarchy of intracellular Ca2+ release events. These can progress from openings of single IP3R, through near-synchronous opening of a few IP3Rs within a cluster to much larger signals that give rise to regenerative Ca2+ waves that can invade the entire cell. We have used patch-clamp recording from excised nuclear membranes of DT40 cells expressing only IP3R3 and shown that low concentrations of IP3 rapidly and reversibly cause IP3Rs to assemble into small clusters. In addition to bringing IP3Rs close enough to allow Ca2+ released by one IP3R to regulate the activity of its neighbors, clustering also retunes the regulation of IP3Rs by IP3 and Ca2+. At resting cytosolic [Ca2+], lone IP3R are more sensitive to IP3 and the mean channel open time (~10ms) is twice as long as for clustered IP3R. When the cytosolic free [Ca2+] is increased to 1µM, to mimic the conditions that might prevail when an IP3R within a cluster opens, clustered IP3R are no longer inhibited and their gating becomes coupled. IP3, by dynamically regulating IP3R clustering, both positions IP3R for optimal interactions between them and it serves to exaggerate the effects of Ca2+ within a cluster. During the course of these studies, we have observed that nuclear IP3R stably express one of two single channel K + conductances (γK ~120 or 200pS). Here we demonstrate that for both states of the IP3R, the effects of IP3 on clustering are indistinguishable. These observations reinforce our conclusion that IP3 dynamically regulates assembly of IP3Rs into clusters that underlie the hierarchical recruitment of elementary Ca2+ release events. 相似文献

Calcium puffs are localized Ca2+ signals mediated by Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) through clusters of inositol trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) channels. The recruitment of IP3R channels during puffs depends on Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release, a regenerative process that must be terminated to maintain control of cell signaling and prevent Ca2+ cytotoxicity. Here, we studied puff termination using total internal reflection microscopy to resolve the gating of individual IP3R channels during puffs in intact SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. We find that the kinetics of IP3R channel closing differ from that expected for independent, stochastic gating, in that multiple channels tend to remain open together longer than predicted from their individual open lifetimes and then close in near-synchrony. This behavior cannot readily be explained by previously proposed termination mechanisms, including Ca2+-inhibition of IP3Rs and local depletion of Ca2+ in the ER lumen. Instead, we postulate that the gating of closely adjacent IP3Rs is coupled, possibly via allosteric interactions, suggesting an important mechanism to ensure robust puff termination in addition to Ca2+-inactivation. 相似文献

Cell-death and -survival decisions are critically controlled by intracellular Ca2 + homeostasis and dynamics at the level of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptors (IP3Rs) play a pivotal role in these processes by mediating Ca2 + flux from the ER into the cytosol and mitochondria. Hence, it is clear that many pro-survival and pro-death signaling pathways and proteins affect Ca2 + signaling by directly targeting IP3R channels, which can happen in an IP3R-isoform-dependent manner. In this review, we will focus on how the different IP3R isoforms (IP3R1, IP3R2 and IP3R3) control cell death and survival. First, we will present an overview of the isoform-specific regulation of IP3Rs by cellular factors like IP3, Ca2 +, Ca2 +-binding proteins, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), thiol modification, phosphorylation and interacting proteins, and of IP3R-isoform specific expression patterns. Second, we will discuss the role of the ER as a Ca2 + store in cell death and survival and how IP3Rs and pro-survival/pro-death proteins can modulate the basal ER Ca2 + leak. Third, we will review the regulation of the Ca2 +-flux properties of the IP3R isoforms by the ER-resident and by the cytoplasmic proteins involved in cell death and survival as well as by redox regulation. Hence, we aim to highlight the specific roles of the various IP3R isoforms in cell-death and -survival signaling.

Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) serve as electrical pacemakers in the rabbit urethra. Pacemaking activity in ICC results from spontaneous intracellular Ca2+ waves that rely on Ca2+ release from endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stores. The purpose of this study was to investigate if the action of protein kinase A (PKA) affected the generation of Ca2+ waves in ICC. Intracellular [Ca2+] was measured in fluo-4 loaded ICC, freshly isolated from the rabbit urethra using a Nipkow spinning disc confocal microscope. Application of the PKA inhibitor H-89 (10 μM) significantly inhibited the generation of spontaneous Ca2+ waves in ICC and this was associated with a significant decrease in the ER Ca2+ load, measured with 10 mM caffeine responses. Ca2+ waves could be rescued in the presence of H-89 by stimulating ryanodine receptors (RyRs) with 1 mM caffeine but not by activation of inositol 1,4,5 tri-phosphate receptors (IP3Rs) with 10 μM phenylephrine. Increasing intracellular PKA with the cAMP agonists forskolin and 8-bromo-cAMP failed to yield an increase in Ca2+ wave activity. We conclude that PKA may be maximally active under basal conditions in ICC and that inhibition of PKA with H-89 leads to a decreased ER Ca2+ load sufficient to inactivate IP3Rs but not RyRs. 相似文献
