The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contains the highest level of intracellular calcium, with concentrations approximately 5,000-fold greater than cytoplasmic levels. Tight control over ER calcium is imperative for protein folding, modification and trafficking. Perturbations to ER calcium can result in the activation of the unfolded protein response, a three-prong ER stress response mechanism, and contribute to pathogenesis in a variety of diseases. The ability to monitor ER calcium alterations during disease onset and progression is important in principle, yet challenging in practice. Currently available methods for monitoring ER calcium, such as calcium-dependent fluorescent dyes and proteins, have provided insight into ER calcium dynamics in cells, however these tools are not well suited for in vivo studies. Our lab has demonstrated that a modification to the carboxy-terminus of Gaussia luciferase confers secretion of the reporter in response to ER calcium depletion. The methods for using a luciferase based, secreted ER calcium monitoring protein (SERCaMP) for in vitro and in vivo applications are described herein. This video highlights hepatic injections, pharmacological manipulation of GLuc-SERCaMP, blood collection and processing, and assay parameters for longitudinal monitoring of ER calcium. 相似文献

Type 2 diabetes is characterized by peripheral insulin resistance and pancreatic beta cell dysfunction. Elevated free fatty acids (FFAs) may impair beta cell function and mass (lipotoxicity). Altered calcium homeostasis may be involved in defective insulin release. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the major intracellular calcium store. Lipotoxicity induces ER stress and in parallel an ER calcium depletion through unknown ER calcium leak channels. The main purposes of this study is first to identify one of these channels and secondly, to check the opportunity to restore beta cells function (i.e., insulin secretion) after pharmacological inhibition of ER calcium store depletion. We investigated the functionality of translocon, an ER calcium leak channel and its involvement on FFAs-induced alterations in MIN6B1 cells and in human pancreatic islets. We evidenced that translocon acts as a functional ER calcium leak channel in human beta cells using anisomycin and puromycin (antibiotics), respectively blocker and opener of this channel. Puromycin induced a significant ER calcium release, inhibited by anisomycin pretreatment. Palmitate treatment was used as FFA model to induce a mild lipotoxic effect: ER calcium content was reduced, ER stress but not apoptosis were induced and glucose induced insulin secretion was decreased in our beta cells. Interestingly, translocon inhibition by chronic anisomycin treatment prevented dysfunctions induced by palmitate, avoiding reticular calcium depletion, ER stress and restoring insulin secretion. Our results provide for the first time compelling evidence that translocon actively participates to the palmitate-induced ER calcium leak and insulin secretion decrease in beta cells. Its inhibition reduces these lipotoxic effects. Taken together, our data indicate that TLC may be a new potential target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. 相似文献

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium homeostasis is disrupted in diverse pathologies, including neurodegeneration, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes. Temporally defining calcium dysregulation during disease progression, however, has been challenging. Here we describe secreted ER calcium-monitoring proteins (SERCaMPs), which allow for longitudinal monitoring of ER calcium homeostasis. We identified a carboxy-terminal modification that is sufficient to confer release of a protein specifically in response to ER calcium depletion. A Gaussia luciferase (GLuc)–based SERCaMP provides a simple and sensitive method to monitor ER calcium homeostasis in vitro or in vivo by analyzing culture medium or blood. GLuc-SERCaMPs revealed ER calcium depletion in rat primary neurons exposed to various ER stressors. In vivo, ER calcium disruption in rat liver was monitored over several days by repeated sampling of blood. Our results suggest that SERCaMPs will have broad applications for the long-term monitoring of ER calcium homeostasis and the development of therapeutic approaches to counteract ER calcium dysregulation. 相似文献

The endoplasmic reticulum and calcium storage 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Calcium storage is one of the functions commonly attributed to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in nonmuscle cells. Several recent studies have added support to this concept. Analysis of reticuloplasm, the luminal ER content, has shown that it contains several proteins (reticuloplasmins) which are prospective calcium storage proteins. One of these, calreticulin, is also present in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). In sea urchin eggs, a calsequestrin-like protein has been clearly localised to the ER. The recent demonstration that the IP3 receptor, which has similarities with the calcium release channel in the SR is also localised in the ER membrane suggests that calcium stored in the ER is important for intracellular signalling. The alternative view, that the physiologically important calcium store is a specialised organelle, the calciosome, is not supported by these observations. Recent evidence also suggests that ER calcium might be important in ER structure and in the retention of the luminal ER proteins. 相似文献

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of eggs is a major internal store of calcium ions that must be properly mobilized at fertilization for development to proceed. In most species, the ER develops distinct clusters in the cortical ooplasm as the oocyte matures into a fertilizable egg. Following fertilization, the structure of the ER rapidly reorganizes in eggs that produce a single fertilization-induced calcium wave, whereas ER clusters persist for relatively long periods in eggs that generate multiple calcium oscillations. This review considers such pre- and post-fertilization reorganizations of the ER and what effects these changes might have on calcium signaling patterns. 相似文献

Of the many crucial functions of the ER, homeostasis of physiological calcium increase is critical for signaling. Plasma membrane (PM) injury causes a pathological calcium influx. Here, we show that the ER helps clear this surge in cytoplasmic calcium through an ER-resident calcium pump, SERCA, and a calcium-activated ion channel, Anoctamin 5 (ANO5). SERCA imports calcium into the ER, and ANO5 supports this by maintaining electroneutrality of the ER lumen through anion import. Preventing either of these transporter activities causes cytosolic calcium overload and disrupts PM repair (PMR). ANO5 deficit in limb girdle muscular dystrophy 2L (LGMD2L) patient cells compromises their cytosolic and ER calcium homeostasis. By generating a mouse model of LGMD2L, we find that PM injury causes cytosolic calcium overload and compromises the ability of ANO5-deficient myofibers to repair. Addressing calcium overload in ANO5-deficient myofibers enables them to repair, supporting the requirement of the ER in calcium homeostasis in injured cells and facilitating PMR. 相似文献

In mammalian cells, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays a key role in protein biogenesis and in calcium signalling. The heterotrimeric Sec61 complex in the ER membrane provides an aqueous pathway for transporting newly synthesized polypeptides into the ER lumen and may also allow calcium leakage from the ER into the cytosol. In this study, planar lipid bilayer experiments demonstrated that the Sec61 complex is permeable to calcium ions. We also investigated whether silencing the SEC61A1 gene affected calcium leakage from the ER. Silencing the SEC61A1 gene using two different siRNAs in HeLa cells for 96 hours had little effect on cell growth and viability. However, calcium leakage from the ER was greatly decreased in the SEC61A1-silenced cells. Thus, the Sec61 complexes that are present in the ER membrane of nucleated cells form calcium leak channels that may play a crucial role in calcium homeostasis. 相似文献

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium signaling is implicated in a myriad of coordinated cellular processes. The ER calcium content is tightly regulated as it allows a favorable environment for protein folding, in addition to operate as a major reservoir for fast and specific release of calcium. Altered ER homeostasis impacts protein folding, activating the unfolded protein response (UPR) as a rescue mechanism to restore proteostasis. ER calcium release impacts mitochondrial metabolism and also fine-tunes the threshold to undergo apoptosis under chronic stress. The global coordination between UPR signaling and energetic demands takes place at mitochondrial associated membranes (MAMs), specialized subdomains mediating interorganelle communication. Here we discuss current models explaining the functional relationship between ER homeostasis and various cellular responses to coordinate proteostasis and metabolic maintenance. 相似文献

It has been suggested that nitric oxide (NO) may contribute to ischemia-induced cell injury. However, the mechanisms underlying NO toxicity have not yet been fully elucidated. In the present study, we investigated the effect of NO on the level of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium stores, on ER Ca2+ pump activity, on protein synthesis, on concentrations of high-energy phosphates, and on gadd153 mRNA levels. Primary neuronal cells were exposed to the NO-donor (+/-)-S-Nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP) for 1 h, 2 h, 6 h or 24 h. The level of ER calcium stores was evaluated by measuring the increase in cytoplasmic calcium activity induced by exposing cells to thapsigargin, an irreversible inhibitor of ER Ca(2+)-ATPase; the activity of ER Ca(2+)-ATPase was determined by measuring a phosphorylated intermediate; SNAP-induced changes in gadd153 expression were evaluated by quantitative PCR; SNAP-induced changes in protein synthesis were investigated by measuring the incorporation of L-[4,5-3H]leucine into proteins, and changes in the levels of ATP, ADP, AMP were measured by HPLC. Exposing cells to SNAP for 1 h to 2 h induced a marked depletion of ER calcium stores through an inhibition of ER Ca(2+)-ATPase (to 58% of control), and a concentration-dependent suppression of protein synthesis which was reversed in the presence of hemoglobin, suggesting NO-related effects. ATP levels and adenylate energy charge were significantly decreased only when cells were exposed to the highest SNAP concentration for 6 h or 24 h, excluding significant effects of NO on the energy state of cells in the acute state, i.e. when ER calcium stores were already completely depleted and protein synthesis severely suppressed. In light of the regulatory role of ER calcium homeostasis in the control of protein synthesis, the results imply that the suppression of protein synthesis resulted from NO-induced inhibition of ER Ca(2+)-ATPase and depletion of ER calcium stores, and that NO-induced disturbances of energy metabolism are secondary to the effect of NO on ER calcium homeostasis. It is, therefore, concluded that ER calcium stores are a primary target of NO-toxicity. 相似文献

We describe a finite-element model of mast cell calcium dynamics that incorporates the endoplasmic reticulum's complex geometry. The model is built upon a three-dimensional reconstruction of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) from an electron tomographic tilt series. Tetrahedral meshes provide volumetric representations of the ER lumen, ER membrane, cytoplasm, and plasma membrane. The reaction-diffusion model simultaneously tracks changes in cytoplasmic and ER intraluminal calcium concentrations and includes luminal and cytoplasmic protein buffers. Transport fluxes via PMCA, SERCA, ER leakage, and Type II IP3 receptors are also represented. Unique features of the model include stochastic behavior of IP3 receptor calcium channels and comparisons of channel open times when diffusely distributed or aggregated in clusters on the ER surface. Simulations show that IP3R channels in close proximity modulate activity of their neighbors through local Ca2+ feedback effects. Cytoplasmic calcium levels rise higher, and ER luminal calcium concentrations drop lower, after IP3-mediated release from receptors in the diffuse configuration. Simulation results also suggest that the buffering capacity of the ER, and not restricted diffusion, is the predominant factor influencing average luminal calcium concentrations. 相似文献

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is organized in part by adapter proteins that nucleate the formation of large protein complexes. Tetratricopeptide repeats (TPR) are well studied protein structural motifs that support intermolecular protein-protein interactions. TMTC1 and TMTC2 were identified by an in silico search as TPR-containing proteins possessing N-terminal ER targeting signal sequences and multiple hydrophobic segments, suggestive of polytopic membrane proteins that are targeted to the secretory pathway. A variety of cell biological and biochemical assays was employed to demonstrate that TMTC1 and TMTC2 are both ER resident integral membrane proteins with multiple clusters of TPR domains oriented within the ER lumen. Proteomic analysis followed by co-immunoprecipitation verification found that both proteins associated with the ER calcium uptake pump SERCA2B, and TMTC2 also bound to the carbohydrate-binding chaperone calnexin. Live cell calcium measurements revealed that overexpression of either TMTC1 or TMTC2 caused a reduction of calcium released from the ER following stimulation, whereas the knockdown of TMTC1 or TMTC2 increased the stimulated calcium released. Together, these results implicate TMTC1 and TMTC2 as ER proteins involved in ER calcium homeostasis. 相似文献

Prion-related disorders (PrDs) are fatal neurodegenerative disorders characterized by progressive neuronal impairment as well as the accumulation of an abnormally folded and protease resistant form of the cellular prion protein, termed PrP(RES). Altered endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis is associated with the occurrence of neurodegeneration in sporadic, infectious and familial forms of PrDs. The ER operates as a major intracellular calcium store, playing a crucial role in pathological events related to neuronal dysfunction and death. Here we investigated the possible impact of PrP misfolding on ER calcium homeostasis in infectious and familial models of PrDs. Neuro2A cells chronically infected with scrapie prions showed decreased ER-calcium content that correlated with a stronger upregulation of UPR-inducible chaperones, and a higher sensitivity to ER stress-induced cell death. Overexpression of the calcium pump SERCA stimulated calcium release and increased the neurotoxicity observed after exposure of cells to brain-derived infectious PrP(RES). Furthermore, expression of PrP mutants that cause hereditary Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease or fatal familial insomnia led to accumulation of PrP(RES) and their partial retention at the ER, associated with a drastic decrease of ER calcium content and higher susceptibility to ER stress. Finally, similar results were observed when a transmembrane form of PrP was expressed, which is proposed as a neurotoxic intermediate. Our results suggest that alterations in calcium homeostasis and increased susceptibility to ER stress are common pathological features of both infectious and familial PrD models. 相似文献

Rotavirus nonstructural protein 4 (NSP4) induces dramatic changes in cellular calcium homeostasis. These include increased endoplasmic reticulum (ER) permeability, resulting in decreased ER calcium stores and activation of plasma membrane (PM) calcium influx channels, ultimately causing a 2- to 4-fold elevation in cytoplasmic calcium. Elevated cytoplasmic calcium is absolutely required for virus replication, but the underlying mechanisms responsible for calcium influx remain poorly understood. NSP4 is an ER-localized viroporin, whose activity depletes ER calcium, which ultimately leads to calcium influx. We hypothesized that NSP4-mediated depletion of ER calcium activates store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) through activation of the ER calcium sensor stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1). We established and used a stable yellow fluorescent protein-expressing STIM1 cell line (YFP-STIM1) as a biosensor to assess STIM1 activation (puncta formation) by rotavirus infection and NSP4 expression. We found that STIM1 is constitutively active in rotavirus-infected cells and that STIM1 puncta colocalize with the PM-localized Orai1 SOCE calcium channel. Expression of wild-type NSP4 activated STIM1, resulting in PM calcium influx, but an NSP4 viroporin mutant failed to induce STIM1 activation and did not activate the PM calcium entry pathway. Finally, knockdown of STIM1 significantly reduced rotavirus yield, indicating STIM1 plays a critical role in virus replication. These data demonstrate that while rotavirus may ultimately activate multiple calcium channels in the PM, calcium influx is predicated on NSP4 viroporin-mediated activation of STIM1 in the ER. This is the first report of viroporin-mediated activation of SOCE, reinforcing NSP4 as a robust model to understand dysregulation of calcium homeostasis during virus infections. 相似文献

Participation of different calcium-regulating mechanisms in the formation of intracellular calcium signals in rat primary sensory neurons was studied using two-wavelength fluorescent microscopy. Mitochondria were shown to be the most powerful intracellular calcium-regulating structures in the investigated neurons. These organelles were involved in the modulation of calcium signals induced either by Ca2+ entry from the extracellular medium or by Ca2+ release from endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Analysis of the mitochondrial calcium exchange showed that the efficiency of mitochondria depended on whether calcium entered the cytosol from ER or from the extracellular solution. Depletion of ER by activation of ryanodine-sensitive, inositol-3-phosphate-sensitive receptors of ER or by activation of the leak channels via the block of ATPases in ER activated the store-operated calcium entry from the extracellular medium to cytosol. The kinetics of the rising phase of these Ca2+ transients depended on the way of ER depletion. This allows suggesting the existence of different activation mechanisms for the studied signals. The block of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter resulted in a rapid recovery of the intracellular calcium concentration after the Ca2+ transient induced by store-operated calcium influx. We conclude that mitochondrial calcium uptake can prevent calcium-dependent inactivation of store-operated calcium channels. 相似文献

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contains a family of luminal proteins (reticuloplasmins) that are normally excluded from the secretory pathway. However, reticuloplasmins are efficiently secreted when murine fibroblasts are treated with calcium ionophores. The secreted and cellular forms of endoplasmin are clearly distinguishable on the basis of gel mobility and endoglycosidase H sensitivity. Reticuloplasmin secretion leads to the depletion of the proteins from the ER and their accumulation in the Golgi apparatus. The stress response to calcium ionophore induces reaccumulation of reticuloplasmins in the ER and suppresses their secretion. Secretion is also associated with changes in the structure and distribution of the ER. These observations show that perturbation of cellular calcium levels leads to the breakdown of the mechanism for ER retention of reticuloplasmins and suggest a role for calcium ions in their sorting from secretory proteins. 相似文献

AbstractContext: Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium depletion is associated with diverse diseases, including cardiac, hepatic, and neurologic diseases.Objective: The aim of the present study was to identify and characterize an endogenous protein that could be used to monitor ER calcium depletion comparably to a previously described exogenous reporter protein.Materials and methods: The use of a selective esterase-fluorescein diester pair allowed for carboxylesterase activity in extracellular fluid to be measured using a fluorescent readout. Cell culture media from three different cell lines, rat plasma, and human serum all possess quantifiable amounts of esterase activity.Results: Fluorescence produced by the interaction of carboxylesterases with a fluorescein diester substrate tracks with pharmacological and physiological inducers of ER calcium depletion. The fluorescence measured for in vitro and in vivo samples were consistent with ER calcium depletion being the trigger for increased esterase activity.Discussion: Decreased luminal ER calcium causes ER resident esterases to be released from the cell, and, when assessed concurrently with other disease biomarkers, these esterases may provide insight into the role of ER calcium homeostasis in human diseases.Conclusion: Our results indicate that carboxylesterases are putative markers of ER calcium dysfunction. 相似文献

The cortical endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of sea urchin eggs was localized on isolated egg cortices by staining with aqueous suspensions of the dicarbocyanine "DiI." Immunofluorescence localization of a calsequestrin-like protein was essentially identical; this is consistent with a role for the ER in calcium regulation. The ER often encircles cortical granules, making it well-suited for initiating fusion and propagating the calcium wave. Thiazole orange and Hoechst dye 33258 at pH 2 stain ribosomes bound to the ER, providing evidence that the cortical ER is rough ER. High chloride concentrations were found to disrupt ER continuity. 相似文献

Endoplasmic reticulum calcium homeostasis is critical for cellular functions and is disrupted in diverse pathologies including neurodegeneration and cardiovascular disease. Owing to the high concentration of calcium within the ER, studying this subcellular compartment requires tools that are optimized for these conditions. To develop a single-fluorophore genetically encoded calcium indicator for this organelle, we targeted a low affinity variant of GCaMP3 to the ER lumen (GCaMPer (10.19)). A set of viral vectors was constructed to express GCaMPer in human neuroblastoma cells, rat primary cortical neurons, and human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes. We observed dynamic changes in GCaMPer (10.19) fluorescence in response to pharmacologic manipulations of the ER calcium store. Additionally, periodic calcium efflux from the ER was observed during spontaneous beating of cardiomyocytes. GCaMPer (10.19) has utility in imaging ER calcium in living cells and providing insight into luminal calcium dynamics under physiologic and pathologic states. 相似文献
