Calreticulin is an endoplasmic reticulum resident Ca(2+)-binding chaperone. The importance of the protein is illustrated by embryonic lethality because of impaired cardiac development in calreticulin-deficient mice. The molecular details underlying this phenotype are not understood. In this study, we show that overexpression of activated calcineurin reverses the defect in cardiac development observed in calreticulin-deficient mice and rescues them from embryonic lethality. The surviving mice show no defect in cardiac development but exhibited growth retardation, hypoglycemia, increased levels of serum triacylglycerols, and cholesterol. Reversal of embryonic lethality because of calreticulin deficiency by activated calcineurin underscores the impact of the calreticulin-calcineurin functions on the Ca(2+)-dependent signaling cascade during early cardiac development. These findings show that calreticulin and calcineurin play fundamental roles in Ca(2+)-dependent pathways essential for normal cardiac development and explain the molecular basis for the rescue of calreticulin-deficient phenotype. 相似文献

Calcium (Ca2+) is a universal signalling molecule involved in many aspects of cellular function. The majority of intracellular Ca2+ is stored in the endoplasmic reticulum and once Ca2+ is released from the endoplasmic reticulum, specific plasma membrane Ca2+ channels are activated, resulting in increased intracellular Ca2+. In the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum, Ca2+ is buffered by Ca2+ binding chaperones such as calreticulin. Calreticulin-deficiency is lethal in utero due to impaired cardiac development and in the absence of calreticulin, Ca2+ storage capacity within the endoplasmic reticulum and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) receptor mediated Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum are compromised. Over-expression of constitutively active calcineurin in the heart rescues calreticulin-deficient mice from embryonic lethality. This observation indicates that calreticulin is a key upstream regulator of calcineurin in Ca2+-signalling pathways and highlights the importance of the endoplasmic reticulum and endoplasmic reticulum-dependent Ca2+ homeostasis for cellular commitment and tissue development during organogenesis. Furthermore, Ca2+ handling by the endoplasmic reticulum has profound effects on cell sensitivity to apoptosis. Signalling between calreticulin in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum and calcineurin in the cytoplasm may play a role in the modulation of cell sensitivity to apoptosis and the regulation of Ca2+-dependent apoptotic pathways. 相似文献

In C. elegans, a hyperactivated MEC-4(d) ion channel induces necrotic-like neuronal death that is distinct from apoptosis. We report that null mutations in calreticulin suppress both mec-4(d)-induced cell death and the necrotic cell death induced by expression of a constitutively activated Galpha(S) subunit. RNAi-mediated knockdown of calnexin, mutations in the ER Ca(2+) release channels unc-68 (ryanodine receptor) or itr-1 (inositol 1,4,5 triphosphate receptor), and pharmacological manipulations that block ER Ca(2+) release also suppress death. Conversely, thapsigargin-induced ER Ca(2+) release can restore mec-4(d)-induced cell death when calreticulin is absent. We conclude that high [Ca(2+)](i) is a requirement for necrosis in C. elegans and suggest that an essential step in the death mechanism is release of ER-based Ca(2+) stores. ER-driven Ca(2+) release has previously been implicated in mammalian necrosis, suggesting necrotic death mechanisms may be conserved. 相似文献

The cardiac Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX1) is the predominant mechanism for the extrusion of Ca(2+) from beating cardiomyocytes. The role of protein phosphorylation in the regulation of NCX1 function in normal and diseased hearts remains unclear. In our search for proteins that interact with NCX1 using a yeast two-hybrid screen, we found that the C terminus of calcineurin Abeta, containing the autoinhibitory domain, binds to the beta1 repeat of the central cytoplasmic loop of NCX1 that presumably constitutes part of the allosteric Ca(2+) regulatory site. The association of NCX1 with calcineurin was significantly increased in the BIO14.6 cardiomyopathic hamster heart compared with that in the normal control. In hypertrophic neonatal rat cardiomyocytes subjected to chronic phenylephrine treatment, we observed a marked depression of NCX activity measured as the rate of Na(+)(i)-dependent (45)Ca(2+) uptake or the rate of Na(+)(o)-dependent (45)Ca(2+) efflux. Depressed NCX activity was partially and independently reversed by the acute inhibition of calcineurin and protein kinase C activities with little effect on myocyte hypertrophic phenotypes. Studies of NCX1 deletion mutants expressed in CCL39 cells were consistent with the view that the beta1 repeat is required for the action of endogenous calcineurin and that the large cytoplasmic loop may be required to maintain the interaction of the enzyme with its substrate. Our data suggest that NCX1 is a novel regulatory target for calcineurin and that depressed NCX activity might contribute to the etiology of in vivo cardiac hypertrophy and dysfunction occurring under conditions in which both calcineurin and protein kinase C are chronically activated. 相似文献
