Capsazepine is thought to be a selective antagonist of vanilloid type 1 receptors; however, its other in vitro effect on different cell types is unclear. In human MG63 osteosarcoma cells, the effect of capsazepine on intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)](i)) and cytotoxicity was explored by using fura-2 and tetrazolium, respectively. Capsazepine caused a rapid rise in [Ca(2+)](i) in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC(50) value of 100 microM. Capsazepine-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rise was partly reduced by removal of extracellular Ca(2+), suggesting that the capsazepine-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rise was composed of extracellular Ca(2+) influx and intracellular Ca(2+). In Ca(2+)-free medium, thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase, caused a monophasic [Ca(2+)](i) rise, after which the increasing effect of capsazepine on [Ca(2+)](i) was inhibited by 75%. Conversely, pretreatment with capsazepine to deplete intracellular Ca(2+) stores totally prevented thapsigargin from releasing more Ca(2+). U73122, an inhibitor of phospholipase C, abolished histamine (an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-dependent Ca(2+) mobilizer)-induced, but not capsazepine-induced, [Ca(2+)](i) rise. Overnight treatment with 1-100 microM capsazepine inhibited cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner. These findings suggest that in human MG63 osteosarcoma cells, capsazepine increases [Ca(2+)](i) by stimulating extracellular Ca(2+) influx and also by causing intracellular Ca(2+) release from the endoplasmic reticulum via a phospholiase C-independent manner. Capsazepine may be mildly cytotoxic. 相似文献

In canine renal tubular cells, the effect of Y-24180, a presumed specific platelet activating factor (PAF) receptor antagonist, on intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) was measured by using fura-2 as a Ca(2+)-sensitive fluorescent probe. Y-24180 (0.1-10 microM) caused a rapid and sustained [Ca(2+)](i) rise in a concentration-dependent manner. The [Ca(2+)](i) rise was prevented by 30% by removal of extracellular Ca(2+), but was not changed by dihydropyridines, verapamil and diltiazem. Y-24180-induced Ca(2+) influx was confirmed by Mn(2+)-influx induced quench of fura-2 fluorescence. In Ca(2+)-free medium, thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase, caused a monophasic [Ca(2+)](i) rise, after which the increasing effect of 5 microM Y-24180 on [Ca(2+)](i) was abolished; conversely, depletion of Ca(2+) stores with 5 microM Y-24180 abolished thapsigargin-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rise. U73122, an inhibitor of phoispholipase C, inhibited ATP-, but not Y-24180-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rise. Overnight treatment with Y-24180 did not alter cell proliferation rate. Collectively, these results suggest that Y-24180 acts as a potent, but not cytotoxic, Ca(2+) mobilizer in renal tubular cells, by stimulating both extracellular Ca(2+) influx and intracellular Ca(2+) release. Since alterations in Ca(2+) movement may interfere many cellular signaling processes unrelated to modulation of PAF receptors, caution must be applied in using this chemical as a selective PAF receptor antagonist. 相似文献

The effect of NPC-14686, a potential anti-inflammatory drug, on cytosolic free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) and growth in PC3 human prostate cancer cells was examined by using fura-2 as a fluorescent Ca2+ indicator and WST-1 as a fluorescent growth dye. NPC-14686 at concentrations above 10 microM increased [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC50 value of 100 microM. NPC-14686-induced Ca2+ influx was confirmed by Mn2+ quench of fura-2 fluorescence. The Ca2+ signal was also reduced by removing extracellular Ca2+. Pretreatment with 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor) to deplete the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ nearly abolished 200 microM NPC-14686-induced Ca2+ release; and conversely pretreatment with NPC-14686 completely inhibited thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ release. The Ca2+ release induced by 200 microM NPC-14686 was not affected by inhibiting phospholipase C with 2 microM U73122. Overnight treatment with 1-500 microM NPC-14686 decreased cell viability in a concentration-dependent manner. These findings suggest that in human PC3 prostate cancer cells, NPC-14686 increases [Ca2+]i by evoking extracellular Ca2+ influx and releasing intracellular Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum via a phospholiase C-independent manner. NPC-14686 may be cytotoxic to prostate cancer cells. 相似文献

The effect of fendiline, an anti-anginal drug, on cytosolic free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) in A10 smooth muscle cells was explored by using fura-2 as a Ca2+ indicator. Fendiline at concentrations between 10-50 microM increased [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC50 of 20 microM. External Ca2+ removal reduced the Ca2+ signal by 75%. Addition of 3 mM Ca2+ increased [Ca2+]i in cells pretreated with fendiline in Ca2+-free medium. The 50 microM fendiline-induced [Ca2+]i increase in Ca2+-containing medium was inhibited by 10 microM of La3+, nifedipine, or verapamil. In Ca2+-free medium, pretreatment with 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor) to deplete the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ store partly inhibited 50 microM fendiline-induced Ca2+ release; whereas pretreatment with 50 microM fendiline abolished 1 microM thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ release. Inhibition of phospholipase C activity with 2 microM U73122 did not alter 50 microM fendiline-induced Ca2+ release. Incubation with 50 microM fendiline for 10-30 min decreased cell viability by 10-20%. Together, the findings indicate that in smooth muscle cells fendiline induced [Ca2+]i increases. Fendiline acted by activating Ca2+ influx via L-type Ca2+ channels, and by releasing internal Ca2+ in a phospholipase C-independent manner. Prolonged exposure of cells to fendiline induced cell death. 相似文献

The effect of NPC-14686, a potential anti-inflammatory drug, on cytosolic free Ca(2+) levels ([Ca(2+)](i)) in HA22/VGH human hepatoma cells was explored by using fura-2 as a fluorescent Ca(2+) indicator. NPC-14686 at concentrations above 10 microM increased [Ca(2+)](i) in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC(50) value of 100 microM. The Ca(2+) signal was reduced by removing extracellular Ca(2+) or by 10 microM nifedipine and was not changed by verapamil or diltiazem. Pretreatment with 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pump inhibitor) to deplete the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) abolished 200 microM NPC-14686-induced Ca(2+) release; and conversely pretreatment with NPC-14686 abolished thapsigargin-induced Ca(2+) release. The Ca(2+) release induced by 200 microM NPC-14686 was not changed by inhibiting phospholipase C with 2 microM U73122. Together, the results suggest that in human hepatoma cells, NPC-14686 induced a [Ca(2+)](i) increase by causing store Ca(2+) release from the endoplasmic reticulum in an phospholipase C-independent manner, and by inducing nifedipine-sensitive Ca(2+) influx. 相似文献

Effect of nordihydroguaiaretic acid on intracellular Ca concentrations in C6 glioma cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Warren Su Li-Ling Tseng Muh-Chiou Lin Hsin-Ju Chang Kam-Chung Lee Kang-Ju Chou Yuk-Keung Lo Jin-Shiung Cheng Hong-Tai Chang Jue-Long Wang Chun-Peng Liu Wei-Chung Chen Chung-Ren Jan 《Neurochemistry international》2002,40(3):249-254
The effect of nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) on Ca(2+) signaling in C6 glioma cells has been investigated. NDGA (5-100 microM) increased [Ca(2+)]i concentration-dependently. The [Ca(2+)]i increase comprised an initial rise and an elevated phase over a time period of 4 min. Removal of extracellular Ca(2+) reduced NDGA-induced [Ca(2+)]i signals by 52+/-2%. After incubation of cells with NDGA in Ca(2+)-free medium for 4 min, addition of 3 mM CaCl2 induced a concentration-dependent increase in [Ca(2+)]i. NDGA (100 microM)-induced [Ca(2+)]i increases in Ca(2+)-containing medium was not changed by pretreatment with 10 microM nifedipine or verapamil. In Ca(2+)-free medium, pretreatment with the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pump inhibitor thapsigargin (1 microM) abolished 100 microM NDGA-induced [Ca(2+)]i increases. Inhibition of phospholipase C with 2 microM U73122 had little effect on 100 microM NDGA-induced Ca(2+) release. Several other lipoxygenase inhibitors had no effect on basal [Ca(2+)]i. Collectively, the results suggest that NDGA increased [Ca(2+)]i in glioma cells in a lipoxygenase-independent manner, by releasing Ca(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum in a manner independent of phospholipase C activity and by causing Ca(2+) influx. 相似文献

The effect of mercury (Hg2+), a known nephrotoxicant, on intracellular free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells was explored. [Ca2+]i was measured by using the Ca2+ -sensitive dye fura-2. Hg2+ increased [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC50 of 6 microM. The Ca2+ signal comprised a gradual increase. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ decreased the Hg2+ -induced [Ca2+]i increase by 27%, suggesting that the Ca2+ signal was due to both extracellular Ca2+ influx and store Ca2+ release. In Ca2+ -free medium, the Hg2+ -induced [Ca2+]i increase was nearly abolished by pretreatment with 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor), and conversely, pretreatment with Hg2+ abolished thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ increase. Hg2+ -induced Ca2+ release was not altered by inhibition of phospholipase C but was potentiated by activation of protein kinase C. Overnight treatment with 1 microM Hg2+ did not alter cell proliferation rate and mitochondrial activity, but 10 microM Hg2+ killed all cells. Collectively, this study shows that Hg2+ induced protein kinase C-regulated [Ca2+]i increases in renal tubular cells via releasing store Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum in a manner independent of phospholipase C activity. Hg2+ also caused cytotoxicity at higher concentrations. 相似文献

Nordihydroguaiaretic acid-induced Ca2+ handling and cytotoxicity in human prostate cancer cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The effect of nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), a compound commonly used as a lipoxygenases inhibitor, on intracellular free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) in PC3 human prostate cancer cells was investigated. [Ca2+]i was measured by using the Ca2+ -sensitive dye fura-2. NDGA increased [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC50 of 30 microM. The Ca2+ signal comprised a gradual and sustained increase. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ partly decreased the NDGA-induced [Ca2+]i increase, suggesting that the Ca2+ signal was due to both extracellular Ca2+ influx and intracellular Ca2+ release. NDGA-induced Ca2+ influx was independently confirmed by measuring NDGA-induced Mn2+ -coupled quench of fura-2 fluorescence. The NDGA-induced Ca2+ influx was not affected by L-type Ca2+ channel blockers. In Ca2+ -free medium, the NDGA-induced [Ca2+]i increase was abolished by pretreatment with 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor), and conversely, pretreatment with NDGA abolished thapsigargin-induced [Ca2+]i increase. NDGA-induced intracellular Ca2+ release was not altered by inhibition of phospholipase C. Overnight treatment with 20-50 microM NDGA inhibited cell proliferation rate in a concentration-dependent manner. Several other lipoxygenases inhibitors did not alter [Ca2+]i. Collectively, this study shows that in prostate cells, NDGA induced a [Ca2+]i increase via releasing stored Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum in a manner independent of phospholipase C activity, and by causing Ca2+ influx. NDGA also caused cytotoxicity at higher concentrations. 相似文献

In human neuroblastoma IMR32 cells, the effect of the anti-depressant maprotiline on baseline intracellular Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) was explored by using the Ca2+-sensitive probe fura-2. Maprotiline at concentrations greater than 100 microM caused a rapid rise in [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner (EC50 = 200 microM). Maprotiline-induced [Ca2+]i rise was reduced by 50% by removal of extracellular Ca2+. Maprotiline-induced [Ca2+]i rises were inhibited by half by nifedipine, but was unaffected by verapamil or diiltiazem. In Ca2+-free medium, thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, caused a monophasic [Ca2+]i rise, after which the increasing effect of maprotiline on [Ca2+]i was abolished. U73122, an inhibitor of phospholipase C, did not affect maprotiline-induced [Ca2+]i rises. These findings suggest that in human neuroblastoma cells, maprotiline increases [Ca2+]i by stimulating extracellular Ca2+ influx and also by causing intracellular Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum via a phospholiase C-independent manner. 相似文献

The effect of the antidepressant sertraline on cytosolic-free Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells is unclear. This study explored whether sertraline changed basal [Ca2+]i levels in suspended MDCK cells by using fura-2 as a Ca2+-sensitive fluorescent dye. Sertraline at concentrations between 1and 100 μM increased [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner. The Ca2+ signal was reduced partly by removing extracellular Ca2+ implicating Ca2+ entry and release both contributed to the [Ca2+]i rise. Sertraline induced Mn2+ influx, leading to quench of fura-2 fluorescence, suggesting Ca2+ influx. This Ca2+ influx was inhibited by suppression of phospholiapase A2 but not by store-operated Ca2+ channel blockers and protein kinase C/A modulators. In Ca2+-free medium, pretreatment with the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitors nearly abolished sertraline-induced Ca2+ release. Conversely, pretreatment with sertraline partly reduced inhibitor-induced [Ca2+]i rise, suggesting that sertraline released Ca2+ from endoplasmic reticulum. Inhibition of phospholipase C did not much alter sertraline-induced [Ca2+]i rise. Collectively, in MDCK cells, sertraline induced [Ca2+]i rises by causing phospholipase C-independent Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum and Ca2+ influx via phospholipase A2-sensitive Ca2+ channels. 相似文献

Phospholipase A2-independent Ca2+ entry and subsequent apoptosis induced by melittin in human MG63 osteosarcoma cells 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Chu ST Cheng HH Huang CJ Chang HC Chi CC Su HH Hsu SS Wang JL Chen IS Liu SI Lu YC Huang JK Ho CM Jan CR 《Life sciences》2007,80(4):364-369
Melittin, a peptide from bee venom, is thought to be a phospholipase A(2) activator and Ca(2+) influx inducer that can evoke cell death in different cell types. However, the effect of melittin on cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) and viability has not been explored in human osteoblast-like cells. This study examined whether melittin altered [Ca(2+)](i) and killed cells in MG63 human osteosarcoma cells. [Ca(2+)](i) changes and cell viability were measured by using the fluorescent dyes fura-2 and WST-1, respectively. Melittin at concentrations above 0.075 microM increased [Ca(2+)](i) in a concentration-dependent manner. The Ca(2+) signal was abolished by removing extracellular Ca(2+). Melittin-induced Ca(2+) entry was confirmed by Mn(2+) quenching of fura-2 fluorescence at 360 nm excitation wavelength which was Ca(2+)-insensitive. The melittin-induced Ca(2+) influx was unchanged by modulation of protein kinase-C activity with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and GF 109203X, or inhibition of phospholipase A(2) with AACOCF(3) and aristolochic acid; but was substantially inhibited by blocking L-type Ca(2+) channels. At concentrations of 0.5 microM and 1 microM, melittin killed 33% and 45% of cells, respectively, via inducing apoptosis. Lower concentrations of melittin failed to kill cells. The cytotoxic effect of 1 microM melittin was completely reversed by pre-chelating cytosolic Ca(2+) with BAPTA. Taken together, these data showed that in MG63 cells, melittin induced a [Ca(2+)](i) increase by causing Ca(2+) entry through L-type Ca(2+) channels in a manner independent of protein kinase-C and phospholipase A(2) activity; and this [Ca(2+)](i) increase subsequently caused apoptosis. 相似文献

The effect of fendiline, a documented inhibitor of L-type Ca2+ channels and calmodulin, on Ca2+ signaling in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells was investigated using fura-2 as a Ca2+ probe. Fendiline at 5-100 microM significantly increased [Ca2+]i concentration-dependently. The [Ca2+]i rise consisted of an initial rise and a slow decay. External Ca2+ removal partly inhibited the Ca2+ signals induced by 25-100 microM fendiline by reducing both the initial rise and the decay phase. This suggests that fendiline triggered external Ca2+ influx and internal Ca2+ release. In Ca(2+)-free medium, pretreatment with 50 microM fendiline nearly abolished the [Ca2+]i rise induced by 1 microM thapsigargin, an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor, and vice versa, pretreatment with thapsigargin prevented fendiline from releasing internal Ca2+. This indicates that the internal Ca2+ source for fendiline overlaps with that for thapsigargin. At a concentration of 50 microM, fendiline caused Mn2+ quench of fura-2 fluorescence at the 360 nm excitation wavelenghth, which was inhibited by 0.1 mM La3+ by 50%, implying that fendiline-induced Ca2+ influx has two components separable by La3+. Consistently, 0.1 mM La3+ pretreatment suppressed fendiline-induced [Ca2+]i rise, and adding La3+ during the rising phase immediately inhibited the signal. Addition of 3 mM Ca2+ increased [Ca2+]i after preincubation with 50-100 microM fendiline in Ca(2+)-free medium. However, 50-100 microM fendiline inhibited 1 microM thapsigargin-induced capacitative Ca2+ entry. Pretreatment with 40 microM aristolochic acid to inhibit phospholipase A2 inhibited 50 microM fendiline-induced internal Ca2+ release by 48%, but inhibition of phospholipase C with 2 microM U73122 or inhibition of phospholipase D with 0.1 mM propranolol had no effect. Collectively, we have found that fendiline increased [Ca2+]i in MDCK cells by releasing internal Ca2+ in a manner independent of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), followed by external Ca2+ influx. 相似文献

The effects of timosaponin A-III (TA-III), from Rhizoma Anemarrhenae, on Ca(2+) mobilization in vascular endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells and on vascular tension have been explored. TA-III increased intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)](i)) in endothelials cells at a concentration larger than 5 microM with an EC(50) of 15 microM, and increased [Ca(2+)](i) in smooth muscle cells at a concentration larger than 1 microM with an EC(50) of 8 microM. Within 5 min, the [Ca(2+)](i) signal was composed of a gradual rise, and the speed of rising depended on the concentration of TA-III. The [Ca(2+)](i) signal was abolished by removing extracellular Ca(2+) and was recovered after reintroduction of Ca(2+). The TA-III-induced [Ca(2+)](i) increases in smooth muscle cells were partly inhibited by 10 microM nifedipine or 50 microM La(3+), but was insensitive to 10 microM verapamil and diltiazem. TA-III (10-100 microM) inhibited 0.3 microM phenylephrine-induced vascular contraction, which was abolished by pretreatment with 100 microM N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA) or by denuding the aorta. TA-III also increased [Ca(2+)](i) in renal tubular cells with an EC(50) of 8 microM. Collectively, the results show for the first time that TA-III causes [Ca(2+)](i) increases in the vascular system. TA-III acted by causing Ca(2+) influx without releasing intracellular Ca(2+). TA-III induced relaxation of phenylephrine-induced vascular contraction via inducing release of nitric oxide from endothelial cells. 相似文献

Effect of olvanil (N-vanillyl-cis-9-octadecenoamide) on cytosolic Ca2+ increase in renal tubular cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In canine renal tubular cells, effect of olvanil, a presumed cannabinoid and vanilloid receptor modulator, on intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was measured by using fura-2. Olvanil (5-100 microM) caused a rapid and sustained [Ca2+]i rise in a concentration-dependent manner. Olvanil-induced [Ca2+]i rise was prevented by 70 and 90% by removal of extracellular Ca2+ and La3+, respectively, but was not changed by dihydropyridines, verapamil and diltiazem. In Ca2+-free medium, thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, caused a monophasic [Ca2+]i rise, after which the increasing effect of olvanil on [Ca2+]i was abolished; also, pretreatment with olvanil partly reduced thapsigargin-induced [Ca2+]i rise. U73122, an inhibitor of phoispholipase C, abrogated ATP-, but partly inhibited olvanil-, induced [Ca2+]i rise. Two cannabinoid receptor antagonists (AM251 and AM281; 5 microM) and a vanilloid receptor antagonist (capsazepine; 100 microM) did not alter olvanil (50 microM)-induced [Ca2+]i rise. These results suggest that olvanil rapidly increases [Ca2+]i in renal tubular cells, by stimulating both extracellular Ca2+ influx and intracellular Ca2+ release via mechanism(s) independent of stimulation of cannabinoid and vanilloid receptors. 相似文献

The effect of clomiphene, an ovulation-inducing agent, on cytosolic free Ca(2+) levels ([Ca(2+)](i)) in populations of PC3 human prostate cancer cells was explored by using fura-2 as a Ca(2+) indicator. Clomiphene at concentrations between 10-50 microM increased [Ca(2+)](i) in a concentration-dependent manner. The [Ca(2+)](i) signal was biphasic with an initial rise and a slow decay. Ca(2+) removal inhibited the Ca(2+) signal by 41%. Adding 3 mM Ca(2+) increased [Ca(2+)](i) in cells pretreated with clomiphene in Ca(2+)-free medium, confirming that clomiphene induced Ca(2+) entry. In Ca(2+)-free medium, pretreatment with 50 microM brefeldin A (to permeabilize the Golgi complex), 1 microM thapsigargin (to inhibit the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pump), and 2 microM carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (to uncouple mitochondria) inhibited 25% of 50 microM clomiphene-induced store Ca(2+) release. Conversely, pretreatment with 50 microM clomiphene in Ca(2+)-free medium abolished the [Ca(2+)](i) increase induced by brefeldin A, thapsigargin or carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone. The 50 microM clomiphene-induced Ca(2+)release was unaltered by inhibiting phospholipase C with 2 microM 1-(6-((17beta-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-yl)amino)hexyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (U73122). Trypan blue exclusion assay suggested that incubation with clomiphene (50 microM) for 2-15 min induced time-dependent decrease in cell viability by 10-50%. Collectively, the results suggest that clomiphene induced [Ca(2+)](i) increases in PC3 cells by releasing store Ca(2+) from multiple stores in an phospholipase C-independent manner, and by activating Ca(2+) influx; and clomiphene was of mild cytotoxicity. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of tamoxifen on cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)](i)) and cell viability in OC2 human oral cancer cells. [Ca(2+)](i) and cell viability were measured by using the fluorescent dyes fura-2 and WST-1, respectively. Tamoxifen at concentrations above 2 microM increased [Ca(2+)](i) in a concentration-dependent manner. The Ca(2+) signal was reduced partly by removing extracellular Ca(2+). The tamoxifen-induced Ca(2+) influx was sensitive to blockade of L-type Ca(2+) channel blockers but insensitive to the estrogen receptor antagonist ICI 182,780 and protein kinase C modulators. In Ca(2+)-free medium, after pretreatment with 1 muM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pump inhibitor), tamoxifen-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rises were substantially inhibited; and conversely, tamoxifen pretreatment inhibited a part of thapsigargin-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rises. Inhibition of phospholipase C with 2 microM U73122 did not change tamoxifen-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rises. At concentrations between 10 and 50 microM tamoxifen killed cells in a concentration-dependent manner. The cytotoxic effect of 23 microM tamoxifen was not reversed by prechelating cytosolic Ca(2+) with BAPTA. Collectively, in OC2 cells, tamoxifen induced [Ca(2+)](i) rises, in a nongenomic manner, by causing Ca(2+) release from the endoplasmic reticulum, and Ca(2+) influx from L-type Ca(2+) channels. Furthermore, tamoxifen-caused cytotoxicity was not via a preceding [Ca(2+)](i) rise. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The effect of bradykinin on intracellular free Ca(2+) levels ([Ca(2+)](i)) in MG63 human osteosarcoma cells was explored using fura-2 as a Ca(2+) dye. METHODS/RESULTS: Bradykinin (0.1 nM-1 microM) increased [Ca(2+)](i) in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC(50) value of 0.5 nM. The [Ca(2+)](i) signal comprised an initial peak and a fast decay which returned to baseline in 2 min. Extracellular Ca(2+) removal inhibited the peak [Ca(2+)](i )signals by 35 +/- 3%. Bradykinin (1 nM) failed to increase [Ca(2+)](i) in the absence of extracellular Ca(2+ )after cells were pretreated with thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pump inhibitor; 1 microM). Bradykinin (1 nM)-induced intracellular Ca(2+) release was nearly abolished by inhibiting phospholipase C with 2 microM 1-(6-((17 beta-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-yl)amino)hexyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (U73122). The [Ca(2+)](i )increase induced by 1 nM bradykinin in Ca(2+)- free medium was abolished by 1 nM HOE 140 (a B2 bradykinin receptor antagonist) but was not altered by 100 nM Des-Arg-HOE 140 (a B1 bradykinin receptor antagonist). Pretreatment with 1 pM pertussis toxin for 5 h in Ca(2+) medium inhibited 30 +/- 3% of 1 nM bradykinin-induced peak [Ca(2+)](i) increase. CONCLUSIONS: Together, this study shows that bradykinin induced [Ca(2+)](i) increases in a concentration-dependent manner, by stimulating B2 bradykinin receptors leading to mobilization of Ca(2+) from the thapsigargin-sensitive stores in a manner dependent on inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate, and also by inducing extracellular Ca(2+) influx. The bradykinin response was partly coupled to a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein pathway. 相似文献

The effect of the estrogen diethylstilbestrol (DES) on intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)](i)) in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells was investigated, using the fluorescent dye fura-2 as a Ca(2+) indicator. DES (10-50 microM) evoked [Ca(2+)](i) increases in a concentration-dependent manner. Extracellular Ca(2+) removal inhibited 45 +/- 5% of the Ca(2+) response. In Ca(2+)-free medium, pretreatment with 50 microM DES abolished the [Ca(2+)](i) increases induced by 2 microM carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP; a mitochondrial uncoupler) and 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pump inhibitor); and pretreatment with CCCP and thapsigargin partly inhibited DES-induced [Ca(2+)](i) signals. Adding 3 mM Ca(2+) increased [Ca(2+)](i) in cells pretreated with 50 microM DES in Ca(2+)-free medium, suggesting that DES may induce capacitative Ca(2+) entry. 17beta-Estradiol (2-20 microM) increased [Ca(2+)](i), but 100 microM diethylstilbestrol dipropionate had no effect. Pretreatment with the phospholipase C inhibitor U73122 (1 microM) to abolish inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation inhibited 30% of DES-induced Ca(2+) release. DES (20 microM) also increased [Ca(2+)](i) in human normal hepatocytes and osteosarcoma cells. Cumulatively, this study shows that DES induced rapid and sustained [Ca(2+)](i) increases by releasing intracellular Ca(2+) and triggering extracellular Ca(2+) entry in renal tubular cells. 相似文献

Multiple mechanisms that maintain Ca(2+) homeostasis and provide for Ca(2+) signalling operate in the somatas and neurohypophysial nerve terminals of supraoptic nucleus (SON) neurones. Here, we examined the Ca(2+) clearance mechanisms of SON neurones from adult rats by monitoring the effects of the selective inhibition of different Ca(2+) homeostatic molecules on cytosolic Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)) transients in isolated SON neurones. In addition, we measured somatodendritic vasopressin (AVP) release from intact SON tissue in an attempt to correlate it with [Ca(2+)](i) dynamics. When bathing the cells in a Na(+)-free extracellular solution, thapsigargin, cyclopiazonic acid (CPA), carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), and the inhibitor of plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase (PMCA), La(3+), all significantly slowed down the recovery of depolarisation (50 mM KCl)-induced [Ca(2+)](i) transients. The release of AVP was stimulated by 50 mM KCl, and the decline in the peptide release was slowed by Ca(2+) transport inhibitors. In contrast to previous reports, our results show that in the fully mature adult rats: (i) all four Ca(2+) homeostatic pathways, the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger, the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pump, the plasmalemmal Ca(2+) pump and mitochondria, are complementary in actively clearing Ca(2+) from SON neurones; (ii) somatodendritic AVP release closely correlates with intracellular [Ca(2+)](i) dynamics; (iii) there is (are) Ca(2+) clearance mechanism(s) distinct from the four outlined above; and (iv) Ca(2+) homeostatic systems in the somatas of SON neurones differ from those expressed in their terminals. 相似文献

The effect of gossypol on Ca(2+) signaling in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells was investigated by using fura-2 as a Ca(2+) probe. Gossypol evoked a rise in cytosolic free Ca(2+) levels ([Ca(2+)](i)) concentration-dependently between 2 and 20 microM. The response was decreased by external Ca(2+) removal. In Ca(2+)-free medium pretreatment with gossypol nearly abolished the [Ca(2+)](i) increase induced by carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), a mitochondrial uncoupler, and thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pump; but pretreatment with CCCP and thapsigargin only partly inhibited gossypol-induced Ca(2+) release. Addition of 3 mM Ca(2+) induced a [Ca(2+)](i) increase after pretreatment with 5 microM gossypol in Ca(2+)-free medium. This Ca(2+) entry was decreased by 25 microM econazole, 50 microM SKF96365 and 40 microM aristolochic acid (a phospholipase A(2) inhibitor). Pretreatment with aristolochic acid inhibited 5 microM gossypol-induced internal Ca(2+) release by 55%, but suppression of phospholipase C with 2 microM 1-(6-((17beta-3-methoxyestra-1,3, 5(10)-trien-17-yl)amino)hexyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione) had no effect. Gossypol (5 microM) also increased [Ca(2+)](i) in human bladder cancer cells and neutrophils. Collectively, we have found that gossypol increased [Ca(2+)](i) in MDCK cells by releasing Ca(2+) from multiple Ca(2+) stores in a manner independent of the production of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate, followed by Ca(2+) influx from external space. 相似文献
