We used the patch-clamp technique to study the effects of extracellular ATP on the activity of ion channels recorded in rat pancreatic beta-cells. In cell-attached membrane patches, action currents induced by 8.3 mM glucose were inhibited by 0.1 mM ATP, 0.1 mM ADP or 15 microM ADPbetaS but not by 0.1 mM AMP or 0.1 mM adenosine. In perforated membrane patches, action potentials were measured in current clamp, induced by 8.3 mM glucose, and were also inhibited by 0.1 mM ATP with a modest hyperpolarization to -43 mV. In whole-cell clamp experiments, ATP dose-dependently decreased the amplitudes of L-type Ca2+ channel currents (ICa) to 56.7+/-4.0% (p<0.001) of the control, but did not influence ATP-sensitive K+ channel currents observed in the presence of 0.1 mM ATP and 0.1 mM ADP in the pipette. Agonists of P2Y purinoceptors, 2-methylthio ATP (0.1 mM) or ADPbetaS (15 microM) mimicked the inhibitory effect of ATP on ICa, but PPADS (0.1 mM) and suramin (0.2 mM), antagonists of P2 purinoceptors, counteracted this effect. When we used 0.1 mM GTPgammaS in the pipette solution, ATP irreversibly reduced ICa to 58.4+/-6.6% of the control (p<0.001). In contrast, no inhibitory effect of ATP was observed when 0.2 mM GDPbetaS was used in the pipette solution. The use of either 20 mM BAPTA instead of 10 mM EGTA, or 0.1 mM compound 48/80, a blocker of phospholipase C (PLC), in the pipette solution abolished the inhibitory effect of ATP on ICa, but 1 microM staurosporine, a blocker of protein kinase C (PKC), did not. When the beta-cells were pretreated with 0.4 microM thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ pump, ATP lost the inhibitory effect on ICa. These results suggest that extracellular ATP inhibits action potentials by Ca2+-induced ICa inhibition in which an increase in cytosolic Ca2+ released from thapsigargin-sensitive store sites was brought about by a P2Y purinoceptor-coupled G-protein, PI-PLC and IP3 pathway. 相似文献

The electrophysiological and pharmacological properties of Ca(2+) current (I(Ca)) were determined by the whole-cell configuration of the patch-clamp technique in smooth muscle cells from human umbilical artery. Using 5 mM extracellular Ca(2+), depolarizing step pulses from -60 to 50 mV from a holding membrane potential of -80 mV evoked an I(Ca) which activated at membrane potentials more positive than -50 mV and exhibited a maximum current density in a range of 10-20 mV. Steady-state inactivation protocols using a V(test) of 10 mV gave a voltage at one-half inactivation and a slope factor of -35.6 mV and 9.5 mV, respectively. Nifedipine (1 microM), an L-type Ca(2+) channels antagonist, completely inhibited I(Ca), while the L-type Ca(2+) channels agonist Bay-K 8644 (1 microM) significantly increased I(Ca) amplitude. Moreover, the selective blocker of P-/Q-type Ca(2+) channels omega-agatoxin IVA partially blocked I(Ca) (about 40 % inhibition at +20 mV by 20 nM). These pharmacological results suggest that L- and P-/Q-type Ca(2+) channels, both nifedipine-sensitive, underlie the I(Ca) registered using low extracellular Ca(2+). The presence of the P-/Q-type Ca(2+) channels was confirmed by immunoblot analysis. When I(Ca) was recorded in a high concentration (30 mM) of extracellular Ca(2+) or Ba(2+) as current carrier, it was evident the presence of a nifedipine-insensitive component which completely inactivated during the course of the voltage-step (75 ms) at all potentials tested, and was blocked by the T-type Ca(2+) channels blocker mibefradil (10 microM). Summarizing, this work shows for the first time the electrophysiological and pharmacological properties of voltage-activated Ca(2+) currents in human umbilical artery smooth muscle cells. 相似文献

Effects of cannabinoids on endogenous potassium and calcium currents in HEK293 cells were studied using the whole-cell variant of the patch-clamp technique. The cannabinoid agonists WIN 55,212-2, methanandamide, and anandamide (1 microM) decreased the calcium current by 53.1 +/- 2.6, 47.5 +/- 1.2, and 38.8 +/- 3.1%, respectively, after transfection of human CB1 cannabinoid receptor (hCB1) cDNA into HEK293 cells. The delayed rectifier-like current was not changed after application of these agonists, but the inward rectifier was increased by 94.0 +/- 3.6, 83.7 +/- 5.1, and 63.0 +/- 2.5% after application of WIN 55,212-2, methanandamide, and anandamide, respectively. The effects of the cannabinoid antagonists (AM251, AM281, and AM630) on the inward rectifier and calcium currents were the opposite of those seen with cannabinoid agonists; thus, these compounds act as inverse agonists in this preparation. These results suggest that endogenous inward rectifier and calcium currents are modulated by cannabinoids in HEK293 cells, and that some expressed receptors may be constitutively active. 相似文献

In a manner similar to voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels and Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels, the recently identified arachidonate-regulated Ca(2+) (ARC) channels display a large monovalent conductance upon removal of external divalent cations. Using whole-cell patch-clamp recording, we have characterized the properties of these monovalent currents in HEK293 cells stably transfected with the m3 muscarinic receptor and compared them with the corresponding currents through the endogenous store-operated Ca(2+) (SOC) channels in the same cells. Although the monovalent currents seen through these two channels displayed certain similarities, several marked differences were also apparent, including the magnitude of the monovalent current/Ca(2+) current ratio, the rate and nature of the spontaneous decline in the currents, and the effects of external monovalent cation substitutions and removal of internal Mg(2+). Moreover, monovalent ARC currents could be activated after the complete spontaneous inactivation of the corresponding SOC current in the same cell. We conclude that the non-capacitative ARC channels share, with voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels and store-operated Ca(2+) channels (e.g. SOC and CRAC the general property of monovalent ion permeation in the nominal absence of extracellular divalent ions. However, the clear differences between the properties of these currents through ARC and SOC channels in the same cell confirm that these represent distinct conductances. 相似文献

Tetrandrine inhibits Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ channels in vascular endothelial cells 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The effects of tetrandrine (TET), a Ca2+ antagonist of bis-benzylisoquinoline alkaloid origin, on cultured single bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells were examined using fluorescence ratio imaging and whole-cell attached patch-clamp techniques. Thapsigargin (TSG, 100 nM), a selective endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase pump inhibitor known to induce the release of nitric oxide (NO) from vascular endothelial cells via a Ca2+-dependent manner, caused a rapid elevation of cytosolic Ca2+ concentration, which was inhibited by 30 microM TET. In whole-cell patch-clamp study using the same vascular endothelial cells, addition of 100 nM TSG caused a significant enhancement of depolarization-evoked Ca2+-dependent, outward K+ currents, which could also be abolished by 30 microM TET. The present results demonstrate directly that TET, in addition to its known inhibitory effects on vascular smooth muscle by virtue of its Ca2+ antagonistic actions, also inhibits NO production by the endothelial cells through blockade of Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ channels. 相似文献

Membrane conductances for Ca2+ in cultured rat pigment epithelial cells were studied in the whole-cell configuration of the patch-clamp technique using barium (10 mM) as a charge carrier. Two types of voltage-dependent and verapamiland diltiazem-sensitive Ba2+ currents were observed. First, a nearly sustained current was activated by depolarization to potentials more positive than — 30mV and blocked by nifedipine (1 μM). This current was observed in cells of primary cultures less than 13 days old. Second, a transient nifedipine (1 μM) insensitive current was activated by depolarization to potentials more positive than — 55mV in cultures which were more than 13 days old. This current was not carried by sodium and blocked by 1 μM tetrodotoxin (TTX). In summary, cultured rat retinal pigment epithelial cells in younger primary cultures express Ba2+ currents indicating the presence of L-type Ca2+ channels. In order primary cultures a low-voltage activated channel was observed with properties different from T-type calcium channels or TTX-sensitive calcium conducting sodium channels. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Angiotensin II (ANG II) evokes positive inotropic responses in various species. However, the effects of this peptide on L-type Ca(2+) currents (I(Ca)) are still controversial. We report in this study that the effects of ANG II on I(Ca) differ depending on the mode of patch-clamp technique used, standard whole cell (WC) or perforated patch (PP). No significant effects of ANG II (0.5 microM) were observed when WC in cells dialyzed with high EGTA was used. However, when the intracellular milieu was preserved using PP, ANG II induced a significant 77 +/- 6% increase in I(Ca) (-2.2 +/- 0.3 in control and -3.9 +/- 0.6 pA/pF in ANG II, n = 8, P < 0.05). When WC was used in cells dialyzed with low Ca(2+) buffer capacity (EGTA 0.1 mM), ANG II was able to induce an increase in I(Ca) (-3.5 +/- 0.3 in control vs. -4.8 +/- 0.4 pA/pF in ANG II, n = 13, P < 0.05). This increase was prevented when the cells were also dialyzed with the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor chelerythrine (50 microM) or calphostin C (1 microM). The above results allow us to conclude that strong intracellular Ca(2+) buffering prevents the physiological actions of ANG II on cardiac I(Ca), which are also dependent on activation of PKC. 相似文献

In electrically non-excitable cells, one major source of Ca2+ influx is through the store-operated (or Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+) channel by which the process of emptying the intracellular Ca2+ stores results in the activation of Ca2+ channels in the plasma membrane. Using both whole-cell patch-clamp and Ca2+ imaging technique, we describe the electrophysiology mechanism underlying formyl-peptide receptor like 1 (FPRL1) linked to intracellular Ca2+ mobilization. The FPRL1 agonists induced Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum and subsequently evoked ICRAC-like currents displaying fast inactivation in K562 erythroleukemia cells which expresses FPRL1, but had almost no effect in K562 cells treated with FPRL1 RNA-interference and HEK293 cells which showed no FPRL1 expression. The currents were impaired after either complete store depletion by the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin, or after inhibition of PLC by U73122. Our results present the first evidence that FPRL1 is a potent mediator in the activation of CRAC channels. 相似文献

Characterization of the calcium-activated chloride channel in isolated guinea-pig hepatocytes 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
《The Journal of general physiology》1994,104(2):357-373
Macroscopic and unitary currents through Ca(2+)-activated Cl- channels were examined in enzymatically isolated guinea-pig hepatocytes using whole-cell, excised outside-out and inside-out configurations of the patch-clamp technique. When K+ conductances were blocked and the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was set at 1 microM (pCa = 6), membrane currents were observed under whole-cell voltage-clamp conditions. The reversal potential of the current shifted by approximately 60 mV per 10-fold change in the external Cl- concentration. In addition, the current did not appear when Cl- was omitted from the internal and external solutions, indicating that the current was Cl- selective. The current was activated by increasing [Ca2+]i and was inactivated in Ca(2+)-free, 5 mM EGTA internal solution (pCa > 9). The current was inhibited by bath application of 9- anthracenecarboxylic acid (9-AC) and 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'- disulfonic acid (DIDS) in a voltage-dependent manner. In single channel recordings from outside-out patches, unitary current activity was observed, whose averaged slope conductance was 7.4 +/- 0.5 pS (n = 18). The single channel activity responded to extracellular Cl- changes as expected for a Cl- channel current. The open time distribution was best described by a single exponential function with mean open lifetime of 97.6 +/- 10.4 ms (n = 11), while at least two exponentials were required to fit the closed time distributions with a time constant for the fast component of 21.5 +/- 2.8 ms (n = 11) and that for the slow component of 411.9 +/- 52.0 ms (n = 11). In excised inside-out patch recordings, channel open probability was sensitive to [Ca2+]i. The relationship between [Ca2+]i and channel activity was fitted by the Hill equation with a Hill coefficient of 3.4 and the half-maximal activation was 0.48 microM. These results suggest that guinea-pig hepatocytes possess Ca(2+)-activated Cl- channels. 相似文献

Antigen-evoked influx of extracellular Ca(2+) into mast cells may occur via store-operated Ca(2+) channels called calcium release-activated calcium (CRAC) channels. In mast cells of the rat basophilic leukemia cell line (RBL-2H3), cholera toxin (CT) potentiates antigen-driven uptake of (45)Ca(2+) through cAMP-independent means. Here, we have used perforated patch clamp recording at physiological temperature to test whether cholera toxin or its substrate, Gs, directly modulates the activity of CRAC channels. Cholera toxin dramatically amplified (two- to fourfold) the Ca(2)+ release-activated Ca(2+) current (I(CRAC)) elicited by suboptimal concentrations of antigen, without itself inducing I(CRAC), and this enhancement was not mimicked by cAMP elevation. In contrast, cholera toxin did not affect the induction of I(CRAC) by thapsigargin, an inhibitor of organelle Ca(2+) pumps, or by intracellular dialysis with low Ca(2+) pipette solutions. Thus, the activity of CRAC channels is not directly controlled by cholera toxin or Gsalpha. Nor was the potentiation of I(CRAC) due to enhancement of phosphoinositide hydrolysis or calcium release. Because Gs and the A subunit of cholera toxin bind to ADP ribosylation factor (ARF) and could modulate its activity, we tested the sensitivity of antigen-evoked I(CRAC) to brefeldin A, an inhibitor of ARF-dependent functions, including vesicle transport. Brefeldin A blocked the enhancement of antigen-evoked I(CRAC) without inhibiting ADP ribosylation of Gsalpha, but it did not affect I(CRAC) induced by suboptimal antigen or by thapsigargin. These data provide new evidence that CRAC channels are a major route for Fcin receptor I-triggered Ca(2+) influx, and they suggest that ARF may modulate the induction of I(CRAC) by antigen. 相似文献

Fundamental Ca2+ signaling mechanisms in mouse dendritic cells: CRAC is the major Ca2+ entry pathway
Hsu Sf O'Connell PJ Klyachko VA Badminton MN Thomson AW Jackson MB Clapham DE Ahern GP 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2001,166(10):6126-6133
Although Ca(2+)-signaling processes are thought to underlie many dendritic cell (DC) functions, the Ca(2+) entry pathways are unknown. Therefore, we investigated Ca(2+)-signaling in mouse myeloid DC using Ca(2+) imaging and electrophysiological techniques. Neither Ca(2+) currents nor changes in intracellular Ca(2+) were detected following membrane depolarization, ruling out the presence of functional voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels. ATP, a purinergic receptor ligand, and 1-4 dihydropyridines, previously suggested to activate a plasma membrane Ca(2+) channel in human myeloid DC, both elicited Ca(2+) rises in murine DC. However, in this study these responses were found to be due to mobilization from intracellular stores rather than by Ca(2+) entry. In contrast, Ca(2+) influx was activated by depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores with thapsigargin, or inositol trisphosphate. This Ca(2+) influx was enhanced by membrane hyperpolarization, inhibited by SKF 96365, and exhibited a cation permeability similar to the Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) channel (CRAC) found in T lymphocytes. Furthermore, ATP, a putative DC chemotactic and maturation factor, induced a delayed Ca(2+) entry with a voltage dependence similar to CRAC. Moreover, the level of phenotypic DC maturation was correlated with the extracellular Ca(2+) concentration and enhanced by thapsigargin treatment. These results suggest that CRAC is a major pathway for Ca(2+) entry in mouse myeloid DC and support the proposal that CRAC participates in DC maturation and migration. 相似文献

In order to learn about the endogenous Ca2+-buffering in the cytoplasm of chick dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons and the distance separating the ryanodine receptor Ca2+ release channels (RyRs) from the plasma membrane, we monitored the amplitude and time course of Ca2+-activated Cl- currents (I(ClCa)) in protocols that manipulated Ca2+-buffering. I(ClCa)was activated by Ca2+ influx via voltage-gated Ca2+ channels or by Ca2+ release via RyRs activated by 10 mM caffeine. I(ClCa)was measured in neurons at 20 degrees C and 35 degrees C using the amphotericin perforated patch technique that preserves endogenous Ca2+-buffering, or at 20 degrees C in neurons dialyzed with pipette solutions designed to replace the endogenous Ca2+ buffers. The amplitude of I(ClCa)activated by Ca2+ influx or Ca2+ at 20 degrees C was similar in the amphotericin neurons and neurons dialyzed with an 'unbuffered' pipette solution containing 10 mM citrate and 3 mM ATP as the only Ca2+ binding molecules. Thus, endogenous mobile Ca2+ buffers are relatively unimportant in chick DRG neurons. Warming the neurons from 20 degrees C to 35 degrees C increased the amplitude and the rate of deactivation of I(ClCa)consistent with an increased rate of Ca2+ buffering by fixed endogenous Ca2+-buffers. Dialysis with 2 mM EGTA/0.1 microM free Ca2+ reduced the amplitude and increased the rate of deactivation of I(ClCa)activated by Ca2+ influx and abolished I(ClCa)activated by Ca2+ release. Dialysis with 2 mM BAPTA/0.1 microM free Ca2+ abolished I(ClCa)activated by Ca2+ influx or release. Dialysis with 42 mM HEEDTA/0.5 microM free Ca2+ caused the persistent activation of I(ClCa). Calculations using a Ca2+-diffusion model suggest that the voltage-gated Ca2+ channels and the Ca2+-activated Cl- channels are separated by 50-400 nm and that the RyRs are more than 600 nm from the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2 is a novel determinant of store-operated Ca2+ entry 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Store-operated cation (SOC) channels and capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE) play very important role in cellular function, but the mechanism of their activation remains one of the most intriguing and long lasting mysteries in the field of Ca(2+) signaling. Here, we present the first evidence that Ca(2+)-independent phospholipase A(2) (iPLA(2)) is a crucial molecular determinant in activation of SOC channels and store-operated Ca(2+) entry pathway. Using molecular, imaging, and electrophysiological techniques, we show that directed molecular or pharmacological impairment of the functional activity of iPLA(2) leads to irreversible inhibition of CCE mediated by nonselective SOC channels and by Ca(2+)-release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels. Transfection of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC) with antisense, but not sense, oligonucleotides for iPLA(2) impaired thapsigargin (TG)-induced activation of iPLA(2) and TG-induced Ca(2+) and Mn(2+) influx. Identical inhibition of TG-induced Ca(2+) and Mn(2+) influx (but not Ca(2+) release) was observed in SMC, human platelets, and Jurkat T-lymphocytes when functional activity of iPLA(2) was inhibited by its mechanism-based suicidal substrate, bromoenol lactone (BEL). Moreover, irreversible inhibition of iPLA(2) impaired TG-induced activation of single nonselective SOC channels in SMC and BAPTA (1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid)-induced activation of whole-cell CRAC current in rat basophilic leukemia cells. Thus, functional iPLA(2) is required for activation of store-operated channels and capacitative Ca(2+) influx in wide variety of cell types. 相似文献

Although the crucial role of Ca(2+) influx in lymphocyte activation has been well documented, little is known about the properties or expression levels of Ca(2+) channels in normal human T lymphocytes. The use of Na(+) as the permeant ion in divalent-free solution permitted Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channel activation, kinetic properties, and functional expression levels to be investigated with single channel resolution in resting and phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-activated human T cells. Passive Ca(2+) store depletion resulted in the opening of 41-pS CRAC channels characterized by high open probabilities, voltage-dependent block by extracellular Ca(2+) in the micromolar range, selective Ca(2+) permeation in the millimolar range, and inactivation that depended upon intracellular Mg(2+) ions. The number of CRAC channels per cell increased greatly from approximately 15 in resting T cells to approximately 140 in activated T cells. Treatment with the phorbol ester PMA also increased CRAC channel expression to approximately 60 channels per cell, whereas the immunosuppressive drug cyclosporin A (1 microM) suppressed the PHA-induced increase in functional channel expression. Capacitative Ca(2+) influx induced by thapsigargin was also significantly enhanced in activated T cells. We conclude that a surprisingly low number of CRAC channels are sufficient to mediate Ca(2+) influx in human resting T cells, and that the expression of CRAC channels increases approximately 10-fold during activation, resulting in enhanced Ca(2+) signaling. 相似文献

Using patch-clamp and calcium imaging techniques, we characterized the effects of ATP and histamine on human keratinocytes. In the HaCaT cell line, both receptor agonists induced a transient elevation of [Ca2+]i in a Ca(2+)-free medium followed by a secondary [Ca2+]i rise upon Ca2+ readmission due to store-operated calcium entry (SOCE). In voltage-clamped cells, agonists activated two kinetically distinct currents, which showed differing voltage dependences and were identified as Ca(2+)-activated (I(Cl(Ca))) and volume-regulated (I(Cl, swell)) chloride currents. NPPB and DIDS more efficiently inhibited I(Cl(Ca)) and I(Cl, swell), respectively. Cell swelling caused by hypotonic solution invariably activated I(Cl, swell) while regulatory volume decrease occurred in intact cells, as was found in flow cytometry experiments. The PLC inhibitor U-73122 blocked both agonist- and cell swelling-induced I(Cl, swell), while its inactive analogue U-73343 had no effect. I(Cl(Ca)) could be activated by cytoplasmic calcium increase due to thapsigargin (TG)-induced SOCE as well as by buffering [Ca2+]i in the pipette solution at 500 nM. In contrast, I(Cl, swell) could be directly activated by 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (OAG), a cell-permeable DAG analogue, but neither by InsP3 infusion nor by the cytoplasmic calcium increase. PKC also had no role in its regulation. Agonists, OAG, and cell swelling induced I(Cl, swell) in a nonadditive manner, suggesting their convergence on a common pathway. I(Cl, swell) and I(Cl(Ca)) showed only a limited overlap (i.e., simultaneous activation), although various maneuvers were able to induce these currents sequentially in the same cell. TG-induced SOCE strongly potentiated I(Cl(Ca)), but abolished I(Cl, swell), thereby providing a clue for this paradox. Thus, we have established for the first time using a keratinocyte model that I(Cl, swell) can be physiologically activated under isotonic conditions by receptors coupled to the phosphoinositide pathway. These results also suggest a novel function for SOCE, which can operate as a "selection" switch between closely localized channels. 相似文献

Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent facilitation and Ca2+ inactivation of Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ channels
Moreau B Straube S Fisher RJ Putney JW Parekh AB 《The Journal of biological chemistry》2005,280(10):8776-8783
In non-excitable cells, one major route for Ca2+ influx is through store-operated Ca2+ channels in the plasma membrane. These channels are activated by the emptying of intracellular Ca2+ stores, and in some cell types store-operated influx occurs through Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels. Here, we report that intracellular Ca2+ modulates CRAC channel activity through both positive and negative feedback steps in RBL-1 cells. Under conditions in which cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration can fluctuate freely, we find that store-operated Ca2+ entry is impaired either following overexpression of a dominant negative calmodulin mutant or following whole-cell dialysis with a calmodulin inhibitory peptide. The peptide had no inhibitory effect when intracellular Ca2+ was buffered strongly at low levels. Hence, Ca2+-calmodulin is not required for the activation of CRAC channels per se but is an important regulator under physiological conditions. We also find that the plasma membrane Ca2+ATPase is the dominant Ca2+ efflux pathway in these cells. Although the activity of the Ca2+ pump is regulated by calmodulin, the store-operated Ca2+ entry is more sensitive to inhibition by the calmodulin mutant than by Ca2+ extrusion. Hence, these two plasmalemmal Ca2+ transport systems may differ in their sensitivities to endogenous calmodulin. Following the activation of Ca2+ entry, the rise in intracellular Ca2+ subsequently feeds back to further inhibit Ca2+ influx. This slow inactivation can be activated by a relatively brief Ca2+ influx (30-60 s); it reverses slowly and is not altered by overexpression of the calmodulin mutant. Hence, the same messenger, intracellular Ca2+, can both facilitate and inactivate Ca2+ entry through store-operated CRAC channels and through different mechanisms. 相似文献

The crustacean hepatopancreas is an epithelial-lined, multifunctional organ that, among other activities, regulates the flow of calcium into and out of the animal's body throughout the life cycle. Transepithelial calcium flow across this epithelial cell layer occurs by the combination of calcium channels and cation exchangers at the apical pole of the cell and by an ATP-dependent, calcium ATPase in conjunction with a calcium channel and an Na+/Ca2+ antiporter in the basolateral cell region. The roles of intracellular organelles such as mitochondria, lysosomes, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in transepithelial calcium transport or in transient calcium sequestration are unclear, but may be involved in transferring cytosolic calcium from one cell pole to the other. The ER membrane has a complement of ATP-dependent calcium ATPases (SERCA) and calcium channels that regulate the uptake and possible transfer of calcium through this organelle during periods of intense calcium fluxes across the epithelium as a whole. This investigation characterized the mechanisms of calcium transport by lobster hepatopancreatic ER vesicles and the effects of drugs and heavy metals on them. Kinetic constants for 45Ca2+ influx under control conditions were K(n) (m)=10.38+/-1.01 microM, J(max)=14.75+/-1.27 pmol/mg protein x sec, and n=2.53+/-0.46. The Hill coefficient for 45Ca2+ influx under control conditions, approximating 2, suggests that approximately two calcium ions were transported for each transport cycle in the absence of ATP or the inhibitors. Addition of 1 mM ATP to the incubation medium significantly (P<0.01) elevated the rate of 45Ca2+ influx at all calcium activities used and retained the sigmoidal nature of the transport relationship. The kinetic constants for 45Ca2+ influx in the presence of 1 mM ATP were K(n) (m)=12.76+/-0.91 microM, J(max)=25.46+/-1.45 pmol/mg protein x sec, and n=1.95+/-0.15. Kinetic analyses of ER 65Zn2+ influx resulted in a sigmoidal relationship between transport rate and zinc activity under control conditions (K(n) (m)=38.63+/-0.52 microM, J(max)=19.35+/-0.17 pmol/mg protein x sec, n=1.81+/-0.03). The Addition of 1 mM ATP enhanced 65Zn2+ influx at each zinc activity, but maintained the overall sigmoidal nature of the kinetic relationship. The kinetic constants for zinc influx in the presence of 1 mM ATP were K(n) (m)=34.59+/-2.31 microM, J(max)=26.09+/-1.17 pmol/mg protein x sec, and n=1.96+/-0.17. Both sigmoidal and ATP-dependent calcium and zinc influxes by ER vesicles were reduced in the presence of thapsigargin and vanadate. This investigation found that lobster hepatopancreatic ER exhibited a thapsigargin- and vanadate-inhibited, SERCA-like, calcium ATPase. This transporter displayed cooperative calcium transport kinetics (Hill coefficient, n approximately 2.0) and was inhibited by the heavy metals zinc and copper, suggesting that the metals may reduce the binding and transport of calcium when they are present in the cytosol. 相似文献

Using whole-cell recording in Drosophila S2 cells, we characterized a Ca(2+)-selective current that is activated by depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores. Passive store depletion with a Ca(2+)-free pipette solution containing 12 mM BAPTA activated an inwardly rectifying Ca2+ current with a reversal potential >60 mV. Inward currents developed with a delay and reached a maximum of 20-50 pA at -110 mV. This current doubled in amplitude upon increasing external Ca2+ from 2 to 20 mM and was not affected by substitution of choline for Na+. A pipette solution containing approximately 300 nM free Ca2+ and 10 mM EGTA prevented spontaneous activation, but Ca2+ current activated promptly upon application of ionomycin or thapsigargin, or during dialysis with IP3. Isotonic substitution of 20 mM Ca2+ by test divalent cations revealed a selectivity sequence of Ba2+ > Sr2+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+. Ba2+ and Sr2+ currents inactivated within seconds of exposure to zero-Ca2+ solution at a holding potential of 10 mV. Inactivation of Ba2+ and Sr2+ currents showed recovery during strong hyperpolarizing pulses. Noise analysis provided an estimate of unitary conductance values in 20 mM Ca2+ and Ba2+ of 36 and 420 fS, respectively. Upon removal of all external divalent ions, a transient monovalent current exhibited strong selectivity for Na+ over Cs+. The Ca2+ current was completely and reversibly blocked by Gd3+, with an IC50 value of approximately 50 nM, and was also blocked by 20 microM SKF 96365 and by 20 microM 2-APB. At concentrations between 5 and 14 microM, application of 2-APB increased the magnitude of Ca2+ currents. We conclude that S2 cells express store-operated Ca2+ channels with many of the same biophysical characteristics as CRAC channels in mammalian cells. 相似文献

Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) are amphiphiles found ubiquitously in the environment, including wildlife and humans, and are known to have toxic effects on physiological functions of various tissues. We investigated the effects of PFOS and PFOA on action potentials and L-type Ca(2+) currents, I(CaL), in isolated guinea-pig ventricular myocytes using whole-cell patch-clamp recording. In current-clamp experiments, PFOS significantly decreased the rate of spike, action potential duration, and peak potential at doses over 10 microM. In voltage-clamp experiments, PFOS increased the voltage-activated peak amplitude of I(CaL), and shifted the half-activation and inactivation voltages of I(CaL) to hyperpolarization. PFOA had similar effects PFOS, but showed significantly lower potency. These findings are consistent with previous observations for anionic n-alkyl surfactants, suggesting that PFOS and PFOA may change membrane surface potential, thereby eliciting general effects on calcium channels. These findings provide further insights into the mechanisms of PFOA and PFOS toxicities. 相似文献
