Termination of cytosolic Ca2+ signals: Ca2+ reuptake into intracellular stores is regulated by the free Ca2+ concentration in the store lumen. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
The mechanism by which agonist-evoked cytosolic Ca2+ signals are terminated has been investigated. We measured the Ca2+ concentration inside the endoplasmic reticulum store of pancreatic acinar cells and monitored the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration by whole-cell patch-clamp recording of the Ca2+-sensitive currents. When the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration was clamped at the resting level by a high concentration of a selective Ca2+ buffer, acetylcholine evoked the usual depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores, but without increasing the Ca2+-sensitive currents. Removal of acetylcholine allowed thapsigargin-sensitive Ca2+ reuptake into the stores, and this process stopped when the stores had been loaded to the pre-stimulation level. The apparent rate of Ca2+ reuptake decreased steeply with an increase in the Ca2+ concentration in the store lumen and it is this negative feedback on the Ca2+ pump that controls the Ca2+ store content. In the absence of a cytoplasmic Ca2+ clamp, acetylcholine removal resulted in a rapid return of the elevated cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration to the pre-stimulation resting level, which was attained long before the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ store had been completely refilled. We conclude that control of Ca2+ reuptake by the Ca2+ concentration inside the intracellular store allows precise Ca2+ signal termination without interfering with store refilling. 相似文献

Hormones and neurotransmitters mobilize Ca(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum via inositol trisphosphate (IP(3)) receptors, but how a single target cell encodes different extracellular signals to generate specific cytosolic Ca(2+) responses is unknown. In pancreatic acinar cells, acetylcholine evokes local Ca(2+) spiking in the apical granular pole, whereas cholecystokinin elicits a mixture of local and global cytosolic Ca(2+) signals. We show that IP(3), cyclic ADP-ribose and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) evoke cytosolic Ca(2+) spiking by activating common oscillator units composed of IP(3) and ryanodine receptors. Acetylcholine activation of these common oscillator units is triggered via IP(3) receptors, whereas cholecystokinin responses are triggered via a different but converging pathway with NAADP and cyclic ADP-ribose receptors. Cholecystokinin potentiates the response to acetylcholine, making it global rather than local, an effect mediated specifically by cyclic ADP-ribose receptors. In the apical pole there is a common early activation site for Ca(2+) release, indicating that the three types of Ca(2+) release channels are clustered together and that the appropriate receptors are selected at the earliest step of signal generation. 相似文献

The endoplasmic reticulum as one continuous Ca(2+) pool: visualization of rapid Ca(2+) movements and equilibration 下载免费PDF全文
We investigated whether the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a functionally connected Ca(2+) store or is composed of separate subunits by monitoring movements of Ca(2+) and small fluorescent probes in the ER lumen of pancreatic acinar cells, using confocal microscopy, local bleaching and uncaging. We observed rapid movements and equilibration of Ca(2+) and the probes. The bulk of the ER at the base was not connected to the granules in the apical part, but diffusion into small apical ER extensions occurred. The connectivity of the ER Ca(2+) store was robust, since even supramaximal acetylcholine (ACh) stimulation for 30 min did not result in functional fragmentation. ACh could elicit a uniform decrease in the ER Ca(2+) concentration throughout the cell, but repetitive cytosolic Ca(2+) spikes, induced by a low ACh concentration, hardly reduced the ER Ca(2+) level. We conclude that the ER is a functionally continuous unit, which enables efficient Ca(2+) liberation. Ca(2+) released from the apical ER terminals is quickly replenished from the bulk of the rough ER at the base. 相似文献

We have determined the localization of the Golgi with respect to other organelles in living pancreatic acinar cells and the importance of this localization to the establishment of Ca(2+) gradients over the Golgi. Using confocal microscopy and the Golgi-specific fluorescent probe 6-((N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl)amino)hexanoyl)sphingosine, we found Golgi structures localizing to the outer edge of the secretory granular region of individual acinar cells. We also assessed Golgi positioning in acinar cells located within intact pancreatic tissue using two-photon microscopy and found a similar localization. The mitochondria segregate the Golgi from lateral regions of the plasma membrane, the nucleus, and the basal part of the cytoplasm. The Golgi is therefore placed between the principal Ca(2+) release sites in the apical region of the cell and the important Ca(2+) sink formed by the peri-granular mitochondria. During acetylcholine-induced cytosolic Ca(2+) signals in the apical region, large Ca(2+) gradients form over the Golgi (decreasing from trans- to cis-Golgi). We further describe a novel, close interaction of the peri-granular mitochondria and the Golgi apparatus. The mitochondria and the Golgi structures form very close contacts, and these contacts remain stable over time. When the cell is forced to swell, the Golgi and mitochondria remain juxtaposed up to the point of cell lysis. The strategic position of the Golgi (closer to release sites than the bulk of the mitochondrial belt) makes this organelle receptive to local apical Ca(2+) transients. In addition the Golgi is ideally placed to be preferentially supplied by ATP from adjacent mitochondria. 相似文献

Perinuclear, perigranular and sub-plasmalemmal mitochondria have distinct functions in the regulation of cellular calcium transport 总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20
We have identified three distinct groups of mitochondria in normal living pancreatic acinar cells, located (i) in the peripheral basolateral region close to the plasma membrane, (ii) around the nucleus and (iii) in the periphery of the granular region separating the granules from the basolateral area. Three-dimensional reconstruction of confocal slices showed that the perigranular mitochondria form a barrier surrounding the whole of the granular region. Cytosolic Ca(2+) oscillations initiated in the granular area triggered mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake mainly in the perigranular area. The most intensive uptake occurred in the mitochondria close to the apical plasma membrane. Store-operated Ca(2+) influx through the basolateral membrane caused preferential Ca(2+) uptake into sub-plasmalemmal mitochondria. The perinuclear mitochondria were activated specifically by local uncaging of Ca(2+) in the nucleus. These mitochondria could isolate nuclear and cytosolic Ca(2+) signalling. Photobleaching experiments indicated that different groups of mitochondria were not luminally connected. The three mitochondrial groups are activated independently by specific spatiotemporal patterns of cytosolic Ca(2+) signals and can therefore participate in the local regulation of Ca(2+) homeostasis and energy supply. 相似文献

Here we describe a technique that allows us to visualize in real time the formation and dynamics (fusion, changes of shape, and translocation) of vacuoles in living cells. The technique involves infusion of a dextran-bound fluorescent probe into the cytosol of the cell via a patch pipette, using the whole-cell patch-clamp configuration. Experiments were conducted on pancreatic acinar cells stimulated with supramaximal concentrations of cholecystokinin (CCK). The vacuoles, forming in the cytoplasm of the cell, were revealed as dark imprints on a bright fluorescence background, produced by the probe and visualized by confocal microscopy. A combination of two dextran-bound probes, one infused into the cytosol and the second added to the extracellular solution, was used to identify endocytic and nonendocytic vacuoles. The cytosolic dextran-bound probe was also used together with a Golgi indicator to illustrate the possibility of combining the probes and identifying the localization of vacuoles with respect to other cellular organelles in pancreatic acinar cells. Combinations of cytosolic dextran-bound probes with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or mitochondrial probes were also used to simultaneously visualize vacuoles and corresponding organelles. We expect that the new technique will also be applicable and useful for studies of vacuole dynamics in other cell types. 相似文献

ER calcium and the functions of intracellular organelles 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Cytosolic calcium has long been known as a second messenger of major significance. Recently it has become apparent that calcium stored in cellular organelles can also be an important regulator of cellular functions. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is usually the largest store of releasable calcium in the cell. The diverse signalling functions of calcium populating the endoplasmic reticulum and its interactions with other organelles are illustrated in Figure ?? and described in this paper. 相似文献
