New Evidence on Regucalcin, Body Composition, and Walking Ability Adaptations to Multicomponent Exercise Training in Functionally Limited and Frail Older Adults. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 19:363. [PMID: 35010623 PMCID: PMC8744755 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19010363] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2021] [Revised: 12/21/2021] [Accepted: 12/28/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023] [Imported: 08/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Regucalcin, or senescence marker protein-30 (SMP30), is a Ca2+-binding protein with multiple functions reported in the literature. Physical exercise has been shown to improve aging markers; nevertheless, SMP30 in humans has not been extensively researched. Older adults experience a decline in functional capacity and body composition. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a multicomponent training (MCT) program on SMP30 and its regulation of walking ability and body composition in functionally limited, frail, and pre-frail older adults. METHODS A total of 34 older adults (aged 80.3 ± 6.1 years) were divided into an intervention group (IG = 20) and control group (CG = 14). The IG performed a supervised MCT (strength, endurance, balance, coordination, and flexibility) program for 6 months, 3 days per week, whereas the CG continued their normal lives without any specific physical training. SMP30 was analyzed in plasma after 3 and 6 months of MCT, while some physical fitness variables (Timed Up and Go (TUG) and 6-min walk test (6MWT)) and body composition (fat mass and lean mass) were measured at baseline, as well as after 3 months and 6 months of MCT. RESULTS No significant changes were observed in SPM30 between the IG (877.5 a.u. to 940.5 a.u., respectively) and CG (790.4 a.u. to 763.8 a.u., respectively). Moreover, no SMP30 differences were found between groups after 3 and 6 months of MCT. The IG improved significantly in the 6MWT after 3 months (472.2 ± 84.2 m) compared to baseline (411.2 ± 75.2 m). The IG also significantly enhanced their TUG performance after 3 months (7.6 ± 1.6 s) and 6 months (7.3 ± 1.8 s) of training compared to baseline (9.3 ± 3.2 s) (all, p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in body composition between the IG and CG through the 6 months of MCT. CONCLUSIONS The present study suggests that MCT did not change SMP30 levels from 3 to 6 months, where there were changes in neither walking ability nor body composition; however, MCT was effective in improving 6MWT and TUG performance from baseline to 3 months.

Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Cell Biol Lipids 2021; 1866:158906.

Abstract
The expression of TMEM97, a regulator of cholesterol transport, has been reported to be enhanced in some tumour cells. We have recently shown that TMEM97 is involved in the proliferation of the breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231, probably through changes in store-operated calcium entry (SOCE). By using silencing and overexpression of TMEM97 in MDA-MB-231 cells (two manoeuvres that either reduce or increase the calcium influx, respectively), we show enhanced cholesterol uptake in these cells as compared to the non-tumoral breast cell line, MCF10A. The enhanced cholesterol uptake in MDA-MB-231 cells was inhibited by silencing TMEM97, while overexpression of this protein increased cholesterol uptake in MCF10A cells and, therefore, indicating that this protein plays a role in the enhanced cholesterol uptake in MDA-MB-231 cancer cell line. TMEM97 silencing and overexpression resulted in an increase and decrease in the association of cholesterol to the SOCE calcium channel Orai1, respectively. Interestingly, silencing of TMEM97 in MDA-MB-231 cells significantly reduced the co-localization of Orai1 with the SOCE regulatory protein STIM1. Finally, neither silencing nor overexpression of TMEM97 altered SOCE in MDA-MB-231 cells transfected with the cholesterol insensible mutant of Orai1(Y80E). Our results reveal a novel regulatory mechanism of SOCE that relies on TMEM97 activity that courses through the reduction of the cholesterol content in the plasma membrane, and subsequently, by impairing its interaction with Orai1.

Abstract
Progesterone receptor membrane component 1 (PGRMC1) has been shown to regulate some cancer hallmarks. Progesterone (P4) evokes intracellular calcium (Ca2+) changes in the triple-negative breast cancer cell lines (MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-468, and BT-20) and in other breast cancer cell lines like the luminal MCF7 cells. PGRMC1 expression is elevated in MDA-MB-231 and MCF7 cells as compared to non-tumoral MCF10A cell line, and PGRMC1 silencing enhances P4-evoked Ca2+ mobilization. Here, we found a new P4-dependent Ca2+ mobilization pathway in MDA-MB-231 cells and other triple-negative breast cancer cells, as well as in MCF7 cells that involved Stromal interaction molecule 2 (STIM2), Calcium release-activated calcium channel protein 1 (Orai1), and Transient Receptor Potential Channel 1 (TRPC1). Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) was not involved in this novel Ca2+ pathway, as evidenced by using siRNA STIM1. PGRMC1 silencing reduced the negative effect of P4 on cell proliferation and cell death in MDA-MB-231 cells. In line with the latter observation, Nuclear Factor of Activated T-Cells 1 (NFAT1) nuclear accumulation due to P4 incubation for 48 h was enhanced in cells transfected with the small hairpin siRNA against PGRMC1 (shPGRMC1). These results provide evidence for a novel P4-evoked Ca2+ entry pathway that is downregulated by PGRMC1.

Arachidonic Acid Attenuates Cell Proliferation, Migration and Viability by a Mechanism Independent on Calcium Entry. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21093315.

Abstract
Arachidonic acid (AA) is a phospholipase A2 metabolite that has been reported to mediate a plethora of cellular mechanisms involved in healthy and pathological states such as platelet aggregation, lymphocyte activation, and tissue inflammation. AA has been described to activate Ca2+ entry through the arachidonate-regulated Ca2+-selective channels (ARC channels). Here, the analysis of the changes in the intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis revealed that, despite MDA-MB-231 cells expressing the ARC channel components Orai1, Orai3, and STIM1, AA does not evoke Ca2+ entry in these cells. We observed that AA evokes Ca2+ entry in MDA-MB-231 cells transiently expressing ARC channels. Nevertheless, MDA-MB-231 cell treatment with AA reduces cell proliferation and migration while inducing cell death through apoptosis. The latter mostly likely occurs via mitochondria membrane depolarization and the activation of caspases-3, -8, and -9. Altogether, our results indicate that AA exerts anti-tumoral effects on MDA-MB-231 cells, without having any effect on non-tumoral breast epithelial cells, by a mechanism that is independent on the activation of Ca2+ influx via ARC channels.

Abstract
(1) Background: The structure of the Sigma 2 receptor/TMEM97 (σ2RTMEM97) has recently been reported. (2, 3) Methods and results: We used genetic and biochemical approaches to identify the molecular mechanism downstream of σ2R/TMEM97. The novel σ2R/TMEM97 fluorescent ligand, NO1, reduced the proliferation and survival of the triple negative breast cancer cell lines (TNBC: MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 cell lines), due to NO1-induced apoptosis. Greater bioaccumulation and faster uptake of NO1 in MDA-MB-231 cells compared to MCF10A or MCF7 cell lines were also shown. Accordingly, elevated σ2R/TMEM97 expression was confirmed by Western blotting. In contrast to NO1, other σ2R/TMEM97 ligands, such as SM21 and PB28, enhanced MDA-MB-231 cell proliferation and migration. Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) is crucial for different cancer hallmarks. Here, we show that NO1, but not other σ2R/TMEM97 ligands, reduced SOCE in MDA-MB-231 cells. Similarly, TMEM97 silencing in MDA-MB-231 cells also impaired SOCE. NO1 administration downregulated STIM1-Orai1 interaction, probably by impairing the positive regulatory effect of σ2R/TMEM97 on STIM1, as we were unable to detect interaction with Orai1. (4) Conclusion: σ2R/TMEM97 is a key protein for the survival of triple negative breast cancer cells by promoting SOCE; therefore, NO1 may become a good pharmacological tool to avoid their proliferation.

Abstract
Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) is one of the key elements for the activation of store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE). Hence, identification of the relevant phosphorylatable STIM1 residues with a possible role in the regulation of STIM1 function and SOCE is of interest. By performing a computational analysis, we identified that the Y316 residue is susceptible to phosphorylation. Expression of the STIM1-Y316F mutant in HEK293, NG115-401L and MEG-01 cells resulted in a reduction in STIM1 tyrosine phosphorylation, SOCE and the Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ current (ICRAC). STIM1-Orai1 colocalization was reduced in HEK293 cells transfected with YFP-STIM1-Y316F compared to in cells with wild-type (WT) YFP-tagged STIM1. Additionally, the Y316F mutation altered the pattern of interaction between STIM1 and SARAF under resting conditions and upon Ca2+ store depletion. Expression of the STIM1 Y316F mutant enhanced slow Ca2+-dependent inactivation (SCDI) as compared to STIM1 WT, an effect that was abolished by SARAF knockdown. Finally, in NG115-401L cells transfected with shRNA targeting SARAF, expression of STIM1 Y316F induced greater SOCE than STIM1 WT. Taken together, our results provide evidence supporting the idea that phosphorylation of STIM1 at Y316 plays a relevant functional role in the activation and modulation of SOCE.

Abstract
Platelets are responsible for blood haemostasis. Although anucleate, a complete translational machinery has been found in platelets, which is responsible for new protein generation. Recently, the role of miRNAs in platelets has started to become apparent. In this editorial I highlight this topic in the hope that other scientists may be attracted to work in this area to aid a more complete understanding of protein regulation in platelets and its impact on platelet function.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential channels convey signaling information from a number of stimuli to a wide variety of cellular functions, mainly by inducing changes in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration. Different members of the TRPC, TRPM and TRPV subfamilies have been reported to play a role in tumorigenesis. Here we show that the estrogen receptor positive and triple negative breast cancer cell lines, MCF7 and MDA-MB-231, respectively, exhibit enhanced expression of the TRPC6 channel as compared to the non-tumoral MCF10A cell line. In vitro TRPC6 knockdown using shRNA impaired MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 cell proliferation, migration and invasion detected by BrdU incorporation, wound healing and Boyden chamber assays, respectively. Using RNAi-mediated TRPC6 silencing as well as overexpression of the pore-dead dominant-negative TRPC6 mutant we have found that TRPC6 plays a relevant role in the activation of store-operated Ca2+ entry in the breast cancer cell lines but not in non-tumoral breast cells. Finally, we have found that TRPC6 interacts with Orai1 and Orai3 in MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 cells and is required for the translocation of Orai1 and Orai3 to the plasma membrane in MDA-MB-231 and MCF7 cells, respectively, upon Ca2+ store depletion. These findings introduce a novel mechanism for the modulation of Ca2+ influx and the development of different cancer hallmarks in breast cancer cells.

Abstract
Stanniocalcins are expressed in the pancreas tissue, and it was suggested a direct correlation between circulating insulin and STC2 concentrations in human. Here, we show a significant correlation between STC1 and both glycaemia and glycosylated haemoglobin among DM2 patients, while DM2 patients who present the greatest glycosylated haemoglobin values exhibited the lowest STC2 expression. However, treatment of patients with antiglycaemic drugs does not significantly modify the expression of both STCs. On the other hand, STC2‐/‐ mice that exhibited neonatal and adult overweight further presented deregulated glycaemia when they were feed with a hypercaloric diet (breeding pellet, BP). This alteration is more evident at the early stages of the animal life. Deregulated glycaemia in these mice was confirmed using glucose oral test. In addition, STC2‐/‐ mice present enhanced pancreas size; thus, the histological analysis reveals that WT mice respond to BP diet by increasing the size of the pancreatic islets through inducing cell division, and STC2‐/‐ mice lack this compensatory mechanism. Contrary, BP fed STC2‐/‐ mice show enhanced number of islets but of similar size than those fed with regular pellet. Histopathological analysis demonstrates tissue structure disruption and erythrocytes infiltrations in STC2‐/‐ mice, possibly due to the stress evoked by the BP diet. Finally, enhanced glucagon immunostaining was observed in the islet of STC2‐/‐ mice, and the glucagon ELISA assay confirmed the increase in the circulating glucagon. Summarizing, we present evidence of the role of STCs, mainly STC2, as a possible early marker during development of diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Non-capacitative calcium entry (NCCE) contributes to cell activation in response to the occupation of G protein-coupled membrane receptors. Thrombin administration to platelets evokes the synthesis of diacylglycerol downstream of PAR receptor activation. Diacylglycerol evokes NCCE through activating TRPC3 and TRPC6 in human platelets. Although it is known that immunophilins interact with TRPCs, the role of immunophilins in the regulation of NCCE remains unknown. Platelet incubation with FK506, an immunophilin antagonist, reduced OAG-evoked NCCE in a concentration-dependent manner, an effect that was independent on the inactivation of calcineurin (CaN). FK506 was unable to reduce NCCE evoked by OAG in platelets from TRPC6-/- mice. In HEK-293 cells overexpressing TRPC6, currents through TRPC6 were altered in the presence of FK506. We have found interaction between FKBP38 and other FKBPs, like FKBP25, FKBP12, and FKBP52 that were not affected by FK506, as well as with calmodulin (CaM). FK506 modified the pattern of association between FKBP25 and TRPCs as well as impaired OAG-evoked TRPC3 and TRPC6 coupling in both human and mouse platelets. By performing biotinylation experiments we have elucidated that FKBP25 and FKBP38 might be found at different cellular location, the plasma membrane and the already described intracellular locations. Finally, FKBP25 and FKBP38 silencing significantly inhibits OAG-evoked NCCE in MEG-01 and HEK293 cells, while overexpression of FKBP38 does not modify NCCE in HEK293 cells. All together, these findings provide strong evidence for a role of immunophilins, including FKBP25 and FKBP38, in NCCE mediated by TRPC6.

Abstract
The function of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is upregulated in response to cell stimulation with growing and differentiating factors. Active mTOR controls cell proliferation, differentiation and death. Since mTOR associates with different proteins to form two functional macromolecular complexes, we aimed to investigate the role of the mTOR1 and mTOR2 complexes in MEG-01 cell physiology in response to thrombopoietin (TPO). By using mTOR antagonists and overexpressing FKBP38, we have explored the role of both mTOR complexes in proliferation, apoptosis, maturation-like mechanisms, endoplasmic reticulum-stress and the intracellular location of both active mTOR complexes during MEG-01 cell stimulation with TPO. The results demonstrate that mTOR1 and mTOR2 complexes play different roles in the physiology of MEG-01 cells and in the maturation-like mechanisms; hence, these findings might help to understand the mechanism underlying generation of platelets.

Abstract
The use of the mammal target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors has been consolidated as the therapy of election for preventing graft rejection in kidney transplant patients, despite their immunosuppressive activity is less strong than anti-calcineurin agents like tacrolimus and cyclosporine A. Furthermore, as mTOR is widely expressed, rapamycin (a macrolide antibiotic produced by Streptomyces hygroscopicus) is recommended in patients presenting neoplasia due to its antiproliferative actions. Hence, we have investigated whether rapamycin presents side effects in the physiology of other cell types different from leucocytes, such as platelets. Blood samples were drawn from healthy volunteers and kidney transplant patients long-term medicated with rapamycin: sirolimus and everolimus. Platelets were either loaded with fura-2 or directly stimulated, and immunoassayed or fixed with Laemmli's buffer to perform the subsequent analysis of platelet physiology. Our results indicate that rapamycin evokes a biphasic time-dependent alteration in calcium homeostasis and function in platelets from kidney transplant patients under rapamycin regime, as demonstrated by the reduction in granule secretion observed and subsequent impairment of platelet aggregation in these patients compared with healthy volunteers. Platelet count was also reduced in these patients, thus 41% of patients presented thrombocytopenia. All together our results show that long-term administration of rapamycin to kidney transplant patients evokes alteration in platelet function.

Abstract
Analysis of the posttranslational modification of proteins, such as phosphorylation, might yield misleading results due to the presence of other proteins with similar electrophoretic properties that coimmunoprecipitate with the target protein. The aim of the present work was to develop a reliable, easy and economical technique to completely isolate a protein from its complex. Here we present a new assay developed to fully isolate proteins from macromolecular complexes that consists of an initial SDS/PAGE (under reducing conditions), which isolates the target protein, followed by transfer of the proteins to a buffer, from which the target protein is recaptured by conventional immunoprecipitation. This technique, that we have termed "Protein Complex Immunological Separation Assay" (ProCISA), successfully separated proteins of different sizes, such as pp60Src and the IP3 receptor (IP3R), from their complexes. We show that ProCISA allows the investigation of the tyrosine phosphorylation state of isolated proteins. This technique could also be used to study other posttranslational modifications without risk of misleading results resulting from contamination with other proteins of similar electrophoretic mobility which complex with the protein of interest.

Abstract
Endogenously expressed human canonical transient receptor potential 1 (hTRPC1) and human canonical transient receptor potential 6 (hTRPC6) have been shown to play a role in store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) in human platelets, where two mechanisms for SOCE, regulated by the dense tubular system (DTS) or the acidic granules, have been identified. In cells preincubated for 1 min with 100 microM flufenamic acid we show that hTRPC6 is involved in SOCE activated by both mechanisms, as demonstrated by selective depletion of the DTS or the acidic stores, using thapsigargin (TG) (10 nM) or 2,5-di-(tert-butyl)-1,4-hydroquinone (TBHQ) (20 microM), respectively, although it is more relevant after acidic store depletion. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments indicated that depletion of both stores separately results in time-dependent interaction between hTRPC1 and hTRPC6, and also between both hTRPCs and the type II IP3 receptor (IP3RII). The latter was greater after treatment with TG. TBHQ-induced coupling between hTRPC1 and 6 was transient and decreased after 30s of treatment, while that induced by TG increased for at least 3 min. TBHQ induced association between SERCA3, located in the acidic stores, hTRPC1, hTRPC6 and Orai1. TBHQ also evoked coupling between SERCA3 and IP3RII, presumably located in the DTS, thus suggesting interplay between both Ca2+ stores. Similarly, TG induces the interaction of SERCA2b with hTRPC1 and 6 and the IP3RII. The interactions between hTRPC1, hTRPC6, IP3RII and SERCA3 were impaired by disruption of the microtubules, supporting a role for microtubules in Ca2+ homeostasis. In conclusion, the present data demonstrate for the first time that hTRPC1, hTRPC6, IP3RII and SERCA3 are parts of a macromolecular protein complex activated by depletion of the intracellular Ca2+ stores in human platelets.

Abstract
Two mechanisms for store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) regulated by two independent Ca(2+) stores, the dense tubular system (DTS) and the acidic stores, have been described in platelets. We have previously suggested that coupling between the type II IP(3) receptor (IP(3)RII) and hTRPC1, involving reorganization of the actin microfilaments, play an important role in SOCE. However, the involvement of the tubulin microtubules, located beneath the plasma membrane, remains unclear. Here we show that the microtubule disrupting agent colchicine reduced Ca(2+) entry stimulated by low concentrations (0.1 U/mL) of thrombin, which activates SOCE mostly by depleting acidic Ca(2+)-store. Consistently, colchicine reduced SOCE activated by 2,5 di-(tertbutyl)-1,4-hydroquinone (TBHQ), which selectively depletes the acidic Ca(2+) stores. In contrast, colchicine enhanced SOCE mediated by depletion of the DTS, induced by high concentrations of thapsigargin (TG), which depletes both the acidic Ca(2+) stores and the DTS, the major releasable Ca(2+) store in platelets. These findings were confirmed by using Sr(2+) as a surrogate for Ca(2+) entry. Colchicine attenuated the coupling between IP(3)RII and hTRPC1 stimulated by thrombin while it enhanced that evoked by TG. Paclitaxel, which induces microtubular stabilization and polymerization, exerted the opposite effects on thrombin- and TG-evoked SOCE and coupling between IP(3)RII and hTRPC1 compared with colchicine. Neither colchicine nor paclitaxel altered the ability of platelets to extrude Ca(2+). These findings suggest that tubulin microtubules play a dual role in SOCE, acting as a barrier that prevents constitutive SOCE regulated by DTS, but also supporting SOCE mediated by the acidic Ca(2+) stores.

Abstract
Intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]c) is finely regulated by several mechanisms that either increase or reduce [Ca2+]c. Two different Ca2+ pumps have been described so far as the main mechanisms for Ca2+ removal from the cytosol, either by its sequestration into the stores, mediated by the sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) or by Ca2+ extrusion to the extracellular medium, by the plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPase (PMCA). We have used inhibitors of these pumps to analyze their Ca2+ clearance efficacy in human platelets stimulated by the physiological agonist thrombin. Results demonstrate that, after platelet stimulation with thrombin, activation of SERCA precedes that of PMCA, although the ability of PMCA to remove Ca2+ from the cytosol last longer than that of SERCA. The efficacy of SERCA and PMCA removing Ca2+ from the cytosol is reduced when the concentration of thrombin increases. This phenomenon correlates with the greater increase in [Ca2+]c induced by higher concentrations of thrombin, which further confirms that SERCA and PMCA activities are regulated by [Ca2+]c.
