Abstract
The intracellular Ca2+ concentration is mainly controlled by Ca2+ channels. These channels form complexes with K+ channels, which function to amplify Ca2+ flux. In cancer cells, voltage-gated/voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels and non-voltage-gated/voltage-independent Ca2+ channels have been reported to interact with K+ channels such as Ca2+-activated K+ channels and voltage-gated K+ channels. These channels are activated by an increase in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration or by membrane depolarization, which induces membrane hyperpolarization, increasing the driving force for Ca2+ flux. These complexes, composed of K+ and Ca2+ channels, are regulated by several molecules including lipids (ether lipids and cholesterol), proteins (e.g. STIM), receptors (e.g. S1R/SIGMAR1), and peptides (e.g. LL-37) and can be targeted by monoclonal antibodies, making them novel targets for cancer research.

Abstract
Recent research has revealed that ion channels and transporters can be important players in tumor development, progression, and therapy resistance in melanoma. For example, members of the ABC family were shown to support cancer stemness-like features in melanoma cells, while several members of the TRP channel family were reported to act as tumor suppressors.Also, many transporter proteins support tumor cell viability and thus suppress apoptosis induction by anticancer therapy. Due to the high number of ion channels and transporters and the resulting high complexity of the field, progress in understanding is often focused on single molecules and is in total rather slow. In this review, we aim at giving an overview about a broad subset of ion transporters, also illustrating some aspects of the field, which have not been addressed in detail in melanoma. In context with the other chapters in this special issue on "Transportome Malfunctions in the Cancer Spectrum," a comparison between melanoma and these tumors will be possible.

Abstract
The expression and function of many ion channels and transporters in cancer cells display major differences in comparison to those from healthy cells. These differences provide the cancer cells with advantages for tumor development. Accordingly, targeting ion channels and transporters have beneficial anticancer effects including inhibition of cancer cell proliferation, migration, invasion, metastasis, tumor vascularization, and chemotherapy resistance, as well as promoting apoptosis. Some of the molecular mechanisms associating ion channels and transporters with cancer include the participation of oxidative stress, immune response, metabolic pathways, drug synergism, as well as noncanonical functions of ion channels. This diversity of mechanisms offers an exciting possibility to suggest novel and more effective therapeutic approaches to fight cancer. Here, we review and discuss most of the current knowledge suggesting novel therapeutic approaches for cancer therapy targeting ion channels and transporters. The role and regulation of ion channels and transporters in cancer provide a plethora of exceptional opportunities in drug design, as well as novel and promising therapeutic approaches that may be used for the benefit of cancer patients.

Abstract
Ion channels are transmembrane proteins whose canonical function is the transport of ions across the plasma membrane to regulate cell membrane potential and play an essential role in neural communication, nerve conduction, and muscle contraction. However, over the last few years, non-canonical functions have been identified for many channels, having active roles in phagocytosis, invasiveness, proliferation, among others. The participation of some channels in cell proliferation has raised the question of whether they may play an active role in mitosis. There are several reports showing the participation of channels during interphase, however, the direct participation of ion channels in mitosis has received less attention. In this article, we summarize the current evidence on the participation of ion channels in mitosis. We also summarize some tools that would allow the study of ion channels and cell cycle regulatory molecules in individual cells during mitosis.

Abstract
Cancer, the second cause of death worldwide, is characterized by several common criteria, known as the “cancer hallmarks” such as unrestrained cell proliferation, cell death resistance, angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis. Calcium permeable channels are proteins present in external and internal biological membranes, diffusing Ca2+ ions down their electrochemical gradient. Numerous physiological functions are mediated by calcium channels, ranging from intracellular calcium homeostasis to sensory transduction. Consequently, calcium channels play important roles in human physiology and it is not a surprise the increasing number of evidences connecting calcium channels disorders with tumor cells growth, survival and migration. Multiple studies suggest that calcium signals are augmented in various cancer cell types, contributing to cancer hallmarks. This review focuses in the role of calcium permeable channels signaling in cancer with special attention to the mechanisms behind the remodeling of the calcium signals. Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) channels and Store Operated Channels (SOC) are the main extracellular Ca2+ source in the plasma membrane of non-excitable cells, while inositol trisphosphate receptors (IP3R) are the main channels releasing Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Alterations in the function and/or expression of these calcium channels, as wells as, the calcium buffering by mitochondria affect intracellular calcium homeostasis and signaling, contributing to the transformation of normal cells into their tumor counterparts. Several compounds reported to counteract several cancer hallmarks also modulate the activity and/or the expression of these channels including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like sulindac and aspirin, and inhibitors of polyamine biosynthesis, like difluoromethylornithine (DFMO). The possible role of the calcium permeable channels targeted by these compounds in cancer and their action mechanism will be discussed also in the review.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive disease with high mortality rates. PDAC initiation and progression are promoted by genetic and epigenetic dysregulation. Here, we aimed to characterize the PDAC DNA methylome in search of novel altered pathways associated with tumor development. We examined the genome-wide DNA methylation profile of PDAC in an exploratory cohort including the comparative analyses of tumoral and non-tumoral pancreatic tissues (PT). Pathway enrichment analysis was used to choose differentially methylated (DM) CpGs with potential biological relevance. Additional samples were used in a validation cohort. DNA methylation impact on gene expression and its association with overall survival (OS) was investigated from PDAC TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) data. Pathway analysis revealed DM genes in the calcium signaling pathway that is linked to the key pathways in pancreatic carcinogenesis. DNA methylation was frequently correlated with expression, and a subgroup of calcium signaling genes was associated with OS, reinforcing its probable phenotypic effect. Cluster analysis of PT samples revealed that some of the methylation alterations observed in the Calcium signaling pathway seemed to occur early in the carcinogenesis process, a finding that may open new insights about PDAC tumor biology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been documented that transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7) plays a pivotal role in the development of multiple cancers. However, the role of TRPM7 in human colorectal cancer (CRC) is poorly understood. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the expression and significance of TRPM7 in CRC. METHODS In this study, TRPM7 expression was first investigated in Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and then validated it with the data from our medical center. CCK-8, colony survival, transwell, and flow cytometry assays were employed to evaluate the effects of TRPM7 knockdown on the CRC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, as well as cell cycle and apoptosis. RESULTS We observed markedly increased TRPM7 expression in CRC tissues. CRC patients with high expression of TRPM7 suggested deeper tumor infiltration, positive lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, and advanced clinical stage. In addition, TRPM7 was also overexpressed in CRC cell lines. Downregulated TRPM7 in vitro suppressed CRC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, as well as triggered cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase, reduced the S phase, and promoted apoptosis. Importantly, decreased TRPM7 in CRC cells reversed the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) status, accompanied by downregulation of N-cadherin and upregulation of E-cadherin. CONCLUSION Our study indicated that the expression of TRPM7 was positively correlated with tumor infiltration, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis and clinical stage of CRC. Besides, decreased TRPM7 in vitro inhibited CRC cell proliferation, migration and invasion by modulating EMT.

Abstract
Background Acylphosphatase 2 (ACYP2) is involved in cell differentiation, energy metabolism and hydrolysis of intracellular ion pump. It has been reported as a negative regulator in leukemia and a positive regulator in colon cancer, respectively. However, its biological role in glioma remains totally unclear. Methods We performed quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR), immunohistochemistry (IHC) and western blot assays to evaluate ACYP2 expression. The functions of ACYP2 in glioma cells were determined by a series of in vitro and in vivo experiments, including cell proliferation, colony formation, cell cycle, apoptosis, migration, invasion and nude mouse tumorigenicity assays. In addition, western blot and co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assays were used to identify its downstream targets. Results Knocking down ACYP2 in glioma cells significantly inhibited cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, invasion and tumorigenic potential in nude mice, and induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Conversely, ectopic expression of ACYP2 in glioma cells dramatically promoted malignant phenotypes of glioma cells. Mechanistically, ACYP2 promoted malignant progression of glioma cells through regulating intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis via its interaction with PMCA4, thereby activating c-Myc and PTP1B/STAT3 signals. This could be effectively reversed by Ca2+ chelator BAPTA-AM or calpain inhibitor calpeptin. Conclusions Our data demonstrate that ACYP2 functions as an oncogene in glioma through activating c-Myc and STAT3 signals via the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis, and indicate that ACYP2 may be a potential therapeutic target and prognostic biomarker in gliomas.

Abstract
Calcium is a ubiquitous intracellular second messenger, playing central roles in the regulation of several biological processes. Alterations in Ca2+ homeostasis and signaling are an important feature of tumor cells to acquire proliferative and survival advantages, which include structural and functional changes in storage capacity, channels, and pumps. Here, we investigated the differences in Ca2+ homeostasis in vemurafenib-responsive and non-responsive melanoma cells. Also, the expression of the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) and the impact of its inhibition were studied. For this, it was used B-RAFV600E and NRASQ61R-mutated human melanoma cells. The intracellular Ca2+ chelator BAPTA-AM decreased the viability of SK-MEL-147 but not of SK-MEL-19 and EGTA sensitized NRASQ61R-mutated cells to vemurafenib. These cells also presented a smaller response to thapsargin and ionomycin regarding the cytosolic Ca2+ levels in relation to SK-MEL-19, which was associated to an increased expression of NCX1, NO basal levels, and sensitivity to NCX inhibitors. These data highlight the differences between B-RAFV600E and NRASQ61R-mutated melanoma cells in response to Ca2+ stimuli and point to the potential combination of clinically used chemotherapeutic drugs, including vemurafenib, with NCX inhibitors as a new therapeutic strategy to the treatment of melanoma.

Abstract
Lung cancer (LC) is the second most common cause of death in men after prostate cancer, and the third most recurrent type of tumor in women after breast and colon cancers. Unfortunately, when LC symptoms begin to appear, the disease is already in an advanced stage and the survival rate only reaches 2%. Thus, there is an urgent need for early diagnosis of LC using specific biomarkers, as well as effective therapies and strategies against LC. On the other hand, the influence of metals on more than 50% of proteins is responsible for their catalytic properties or structure, and their presence in molecules is determined in many cases by the genome. Research has shown that redox metal dysregulation could be the basis for the onset and progression of LC disease. Moreover, metals can interact between them through antagonistic, synergistic and competitive mechanisms, and for this reason metals ratios and correlations in LC should be explored. One of the most studied antagonists against the toxic action of metals is selenium, which plays key roles in medicine, especially related to selenoproteins. The study of potential biomarkers able to diagnose the disease in early stage is conditioned by the development of new analytical methodologies. In this sense, omic methodologies like metallomics, proteomics and metabolomics can greatly assist in the discovery of biomarkers for LC early diagnosis.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+) is perhaps the most versatile signaling molecule in cells. Ca2+ regulates a large number of key events in cells, ranging from gene transcription, motility, and contraction, to energy production and channel gating. To accomplish all these different functions, a multitude of channels, pumps, and transporters are necessary. A group of channels participating in these processes is the transient receptor potential (TRP) family of cation channels. These channels are divided into 29 subfamilies, and are differentially expressed in man, rodents, worms, and flies. One of these subfamilies is the transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) family of channels. This ion channel family comprises of seven isoforms, labeled TRPC1-7. In man, six functional forms are expressed (TRPC1, TRPC3-7), whereas TRPC2 is a pseudogene; thus, not functionally expressed. In this review, we will describe the importance of the TRPC channels and their interacting molecular partners in the etiology of cancer, particularly in regard to regulating migration and invasion.

Abstract
Impaired metabolism may play a role in the development and lethality of prostate cancer, yet a comprehensive analysis of the interrelationships appears lacking. We measured 625 metabolites using ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS) of prediagnostic serum from 197 prostate cancer cases in the Alpha-Tocopherol, Beta-Carotene Cancer Prevention (ATBC) Study (ages at diagnosis, 55-86 years). Cox proportional hazards models estimated associations between circulating metabolites and prostate cancer mortality for 1 SD differences (log-metabolite scale), adjusted for age, year of diagnosis, and disease stage. Associations between metabolite chemical classes and survival were examined through pathway analysis, and Cox models assessed the relationship with a sterol/steroid metabolite principal component analysis factor score. Elevated serum N-oleoyl taurine was significantly associated with prostate cancer-specific mortality (hazard ratios [HR] = 1.72 per 1 SD, p < .00008, Bonferroni-corrected threshold = 0.05/625; HR = 3.6 for highest vs lowest tertile, p < .001). Pathway analyses revealed a statistically significant association between lipids and prostate cancer death (p < .006, Bonferroni-corrected threshold = 0.05/8), and sterol/steroid metabolites showed the strongest chemical sub-class association (p = .0014, Bonferroni-corrected threshold = 0.05/45). In the principal component analysis, a 1-SD increment in the sterol/steroid metabolite score increased the risk of prostate cancer death by 46%. Prediagnostic serum N-oleoyl taurine and sterol/steroid metabolites were associated with prostate cancer survival.

Abstract
T-type calcium channels (TTCCs) are overexpressed in several cancers. In this review, we summarize the recent advances and new insights into TTCC biology, tumor progression, and prognosis biomarker and therapeutic potential in the melanoma field. We describe a novel correlation between the Cav3.1 isoform and the increased basal autophagy in BRAFV600E-mutant melanomas and after acquired resistance to BRAF inhibitors. Indeed, TTCC blockers reduce melanoma cell viability and migration/invasion in vitro and tumor growth in mice xenografts in both BRAF-inhibitor-sensitive and -resistant scenarios. These studies open a new, promising therapeutic approach for disseminated melanoma and improved treatment in BRAFi relapsed melanomas, but further validation and clinical trials are needed for it to become a real therapeutic option.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Developing new strategies to reduce the output power of microwave (MW) ablation while keeping anti-tumor effect are highly desirable for the simultaneous achievement of effective tumor killing and avoidance of complications. We find that mild MW irradiation can significantly increase intracellular Ca2+ concentration in the presence of doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) and thus induce massive tumor cell apoptosis. Herein, we designed a synergistic nanoplatform that not only amplifies the intracellular Ca2+ concentration and induce cell death under mild MW irradiation but also avoids the side effect of thermal ablation and chemotherapy. RESULTS The as-made NaCl-DOX@PLGA nanoplatform selectively elevates the temperature of tumor tissue distributed with nanoparticles under low-output MW, which further prompts the release of DOX from the PLGA nanoparticles and tumor cellular uptake of DOX. More importantly, its synergistic effect not only combines thermal ablation and chemotherapy, but also obviously increases the intracellular Ca2+ concentration. Changes of Ca2+ broke the homeostasis of tumor cells, decreased the mitochondrial inner membrane potential and finally induced the cascade of apoptosis under nonlethal temperature. As such, the NaCl-DOX@PLGA efficiently suppressed the tumor cell progression in vivo and in vitro under mild MW irradiation for the triple synergic effect. CONCLUSIONS This work provides a biocompatible and biodegradable nanoplatform with triple functions to realize the effective tumor killing in unlethal temperature. Those findings provide reliable solution to solve the bottleneck problem bothering clinics about the balance of thermal efficiency and normal tissue protection.

Abstract
Calcium ions (Ca2+) are central in cancer development and growth, serving as a major signaling system determining the cell’s fate. Therefore, the investigation of the functional roles of ion channels in cancer development may identify novel approaches for determining tumor prognosis. Malignant mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer that develops from the serosal surface of the body, strictly related to asbestos exposure. The treatment of malignant mesothelioma is complex and the survival outcomes, rather than the overall survival data are, to date, disappointedly daunting. Nevertheless, conventional chemotherapy is almost ineffective. The alteration in the expression and/or activity of Ca2+ permeable ion channels seems to be characteristic of mesothelioma cells. In this review, we explore the involvement of the Ca2+toolkit in this disease. Moreover, the established sensitivity of some Ca2+channels to selective pharmacological modulators makes them interesting targets for mesothelioma cancer therapy.

Mol Oncol 2019; 14:87-104.

Abstract
Neuronal calcium sensor‐1 (NCS‐1) is a positive modulator of IP3 receptors and was recently associated with poorer survival in breast cancers. However, the association between NCS‐1 and breast cancer molecular subtypes and the effects of NCS‐1 silencing on calcium (Ca2+) signaling in breast cancer cells remain unexplored. Herein, we report for the first time an increased expression of NCS‐1 in breast cancers of the basal molecular subtype, a subtype associated with poor prognosis. Using MDA‐MB‐231 basal breast cancer cells expressing the GCaMP6m Ca2+ indicator, we showed that NCS‐1 silencing did not result in major changes in cytosolic free Ca2+ increases as a result of endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ store mobilization. However, NCS‐1 silencing suppressed unstimulated basal Ca2+ influx. NCS‐1 silencing in MDA‐MB‐231 cells also promoted necrotic cell death induced by the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (1 µm). The effect of NCS‐1 silencing on cell death was phenocopied by silencing of ORAI1, a Ca2+ store‐operated Ca2+ channel that maintains Ca2+ levels in the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ store and whose expression was significantly positively correlated with NCS‐1 in clinical breast cancer samples. This newly identified association between NCS‐1 and basal breast cancers, together with the identification of the role of NCS‐1 in the regulation of the effects of doxorubicin in MDA‐MB‐231 breast cancer cells, suggests that NCS‐1 and/or pathways regulated by NCS‐1 may be important in the treatment of basal breast cancers in women.

Abstract
PURPOSE Human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) and calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) act as an oncogene in gastric cancers, however, their relationship in the progression of gastric cancers is yet to be elucidated. Herein, we aimed to access the potential interaction between hTERT and CaSR in the development of gastric cancers. METHODS The clinical data of 41 patients with gastric cancers were analyzed regarding the expressions of hTERT and CaSR by immunohistochemistry. Among them, five patients' specimens were also analyzed by Western blotting. The regulation of calcium on the expression level of hTERT and the possible underlying mechanism via CaSR were explored in gastric cancer cell lines MKN45 and SGC-7901. RESULTS Both hTERT and CaSR were increased and positively correlated in human gastric cancers, which also occurs in gastric cancer cells MKN45 and SGC-7901. Calcium induced hTERT expression at the transcriptional level in a CaSR-dependent manner followed by an increase in telomerase activity, as either a CaSR shRNA or the CaSR antagonist NPS2143 abolished the calcium-mediated regulation of hTERT and telomerase activity. Further studies showed that CaSR-mediated cytosolic calcium rise followed by Akt activation was involved in the regulation of hTERT by extracellular calcium. Finally, neither CaSR overexpression nor shRNA-mediated CaSR downregulation had an effect on the expression level of hTERT. CONCLUSIONS Our findings established a functional linkage between CaSR and hTERT in the development of gastric cancers and CaSR-hTERT coupling might serve as a novel target for therapeutic strategy against human gastric cancers.

Abstract
We have previously reported that increased extracellular and intracellular Ca2+ lead to adipocyte accumulation in bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). However, strategies to suppress high Ca2+-enhanced adipocyte accumulation have not been reported. We examined the effects of the diacylglycerol analog phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) on proliferation and adipogenesis of mouse primary BMSCs. We used 9 mM CaCl2 and 100 nM ionomycin to increase extracellular Ca2+ and intracellular Ca2+, respectively. PMA suppressed the expression of both C/EBPα and PPARγ under normal adipogenesis, adipogenesis + CaCl2, and adipogenesis + ionomycin conditions. PMA enhanced proliferation under normal adipogenesis conditions but suppressed proliferation under adipogenesis + CaCl2 and adipogenesis + ionomycin conditions. PMA did not affect the accumulation of adipocytes under normal adipogenesis conditions but suppressed adipocyte accumulation under adipogenesis + CaCl2 and adipogenesis + ionomycin conditions. These results suggest that the PMA-dependent pathway is an important signaling pathway to suppress high Ca2+-enhanced adipocyte accumulation.

Abstract
Background MCOLN1 (mucolipin subfamily, member 1) was first identified as an autophagic regulator, which was essential for efficient fusion of both autophagosomes and late endosomes with lysosomes. This study is aimed at investigating the role of MCOLN1 in the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Methods Immunohistochemistry (IHC) assay was conducted to evaluate the expression level of MCOLN1 in 82 human PDAC tumor tissues. Overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) analysis was performed to assess the prognosis of patients. Colony formation and MTT assays [3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide] were performed to measure the proliferation capacity of tumor cells. The expression level of related genes was measured by RT-PCR (reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction) and western blot assays. The animal model was used to examine the effects of indicated protein on tumorigenesis in vivo. Results The results of IHC showed that a high level of MCOLN1 expression was associated with the poor clinical characteristics of PDAC patients. OS and RFS were significantly worse in patients with high MCOLN1 expression. Silencing of MCOLN1 dramatically blocked the proliferation of PDAC cells. Mechanism studies confirmed that knockdown of MCOLN1 decreased the expression of Ki67 and PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen), two markers of cell proliferation. In vivo, MCOILN1 depletion reduced the formation and growth of tumors in mice. Conclusion The high level of MCOLN1 expression was associated with poor clinical outcomes of PDAC patients. MCOLN1 ablation could inhibit PDAC proliferation of both in vitro and in vivo, which provide a new insight and novel therapeutic target for the treatment of PDAC.

Abstract
Chloride intracellular channel 1 (CLIC1) is a promising therapeutic target in cancer due to its intrinsic characteristics; it is overexpressed in specific tumor types and its localization changes from cytosolic to surface membrane depending on activities and cell cycle progression. Ca2+ and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are critical signaling molecules that modulate diverse cellular functions, including cell death. In this study, we investigated the function of CLIC1 in Ca2+ and ROS signaling in A549 human lung cancer cells. Depletion of CLIC1 via shRNAs in A549 cells increased DNA double-strand breaks both under control conditions and under treatment with the putative anticancer agent chelerythrine, accompanied by a concomitant increase in the p-JNK level. CLIC1 knockdown greatly increased basal ROS levels, an effect prevented by BAPTA-AM, an intracellular calcium chelator. Intracellular Ca2+ measurements clearly showed that CLIC1 knockdown significantly increased chelerythrine-induced Ca2+ signaling as well as the basal Ca2+ level in A549 cells compared to these levels in control cells. Suppression of extracellular Ca2+ restored the basal Ca2+ level in CLIC1-knockdown A549 cells relative to that in control cells, implying that CLIC1 regulates [Ca2+]i through Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane. Consistent with this finding, the L-type Ca2+ channel (LTCC) blocker nifedipine reduced the basal Ca2+ level in CLIC1 knockdown cells to that in control cells. Taken together, our results demonstrate that CLIC1 knockdown induces an increase in the intracellular Ca2+ level via LTCC, which then triggers excessive ROS production and consequent JNK activation. Thus, CLIC1 is a key regulator of Ca2+ signaling in the control of cancer cell survival.

Abstract
Invasiveness research is an essential step in breast cancer metastasis. The application of high-frequency ultrasound microbeam stimulation (HFUMS) offers a manner of determining the invasion potential of human breast cancer cells by eliciting the elevation of transient cytoplasmic calcium ions (Ca2+). The fluorescent index (FI), which is a composite parameter reflecting calcium elevations elicited by HFUMS, was shown to be higher in invasive breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231) compared to weakly invasive breast cancer cells (MCF-7) using the low-intensity 50-MHz HFUMS. This novel finding shows significant difference from the reported studies in which MCF-7 cells showed no response to HFUMS. In addition to the negligible response of normal human breast cells (MCF-10A), HFUMS shows the potential to be capable of differentiating the normal cells from the cancer cells. To understand the mechanism of HFUMS worked on mechanotransduction in cells, different channel blockers were used to investigate the roles of specific channels during HFUMS. It was found that GsMTx4 (30 μM), a selective blocker of mechanosensitive Piezo channels, reduces the FI values significantly in MDA-MB-231 cells, while SKF-96365 (40 μM), a general TRP channel blocker, cannot induce the significant inhibition of FI values. The results indicate that Piezo channels may play the main role in invasion and metastatic propagation of cells.

Abstract
Epithelial Ovarian cancer (EOC) is the deadliest gynecologic malignancy and represents the fifth leading cause of all cancer-related deaths in women. The majority of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage of the disease that has spread beyond the ovaries to the peritoneum or to distant organs (stage FIGO III-IV) with a 5-year overall survival of about 29%. Consequently, it is necessary to understand the pathogenesis of this disease. Among the factors that contribute to cancer development, lipids and ion channels have been described to be associated to cancerous diseases particularly in breast, colorectal and prostate cancers. Here, we reviewed the literature data to determine how lipids or lipid metabolites may influence EOC risk or progression. We also highlighted the role and the expression of the calcium (Ca2+) and calcium-activated potassium (KCa) channels in EOC and how lipids might regulate them. Although lipids and some subclasses of nutritional lipids may be associated to EOC risk, lipid metabolism of LPA (lysophosphatidic acid) and AA (arachidonic acid) emerges as an important signaling network in EOC. Clinical data showed that they are found at high concentrations in EOC patients and in vitro and in vivo studies referred to them as triggers of the Ca2+entry in the cancer cells inducing their proliferation, migration or drug resistance. The cross-talk between lipid mediators and Ca2+ and/or KCa channels needs to be elucidated in EOC in order to facilitate the understanding of its outcomes and potentially suggest novel therapeutic strategies including treatment and prevention.

Abstract
Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer and lethal disease worldwide. Melatonin, an indoleamine produced in pineal gland, shows anticancer effects on a variety of cancers, especially CRC. After clarifying the pathophysiology of CRC, the association of circadian rhythm with CRC, and the relationship between shift work and the incidence of CRC is reviewed. Next, we review the role of melatonin receptors in CRC and the relationship between inflammation and CRC. Also included is a discussion of the mechanism of gene regulation, control of cell proliferation, apoptosis, autophagy, antiangiogenesis and immunomodulation in CRC by melatonin. A review of the drug synergy of melatonin with other anticancer drugs suggests its usefulness in combination therapy. In summary, the information compiled may serve as comprehensive reference for the various mechanisms of action of melatonin against CRC, and as a guide for the design of future experimental research and for advancing melatonin as a therapeutic agent for CRC.

Abstract
Cancer is amongst the life-threatening public health issue worldwide, hence responsible for millions of death every year. It is affecting human health regardless of their gender, age, eating habits, and ecological location. Many drugs and therapies are available for its cure still the need for effective targeted drugs and therapies are of paramount importance. In the recent past, Ca2+ signalling (including channels/transporters/pumps) are being studied as a plausible target for combating the cancer menace. Many evidence has shown that the intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis is altered in cancer cells and the remodelling is linked with tumor instigation, angiogenesis, progression, and metastasis. Focusing on these altered Ca2+ signalling tool kit for cancer treatment is a cross-cutting and emerging area of research. In addition, there are numerous phytomolecules which can be exploited as a potential Ca2+ (channels/transporters/ pumps) modulators in the context of targeting Ca2+ signalling in the cancer cell. In the present review, a list of plant-based potential Ca2+ (channel/transporters/pumps) modulators has been reported which could have application in the framework of repurposing the potential drugs to target Ca2+ signalling pathways in cancer cells. This review also aims to gain attention in and support for prospective research in this field.

Abstract
Cancer stem cells (CSC's) have emerged as a key area of investigation due to associations with cancer development and treatment resistance, related to their ability to remain quiescent, self-renew and terminally differentiate. Targeting CSC's in addition to the tumour bulk could ensure complete removal of the cancer, lessening the risk of relapse and improving patient survival. Understanding the mechanisms supporting the functions of CSC's is essential to highlight targets for the development of therapeutic strategies. Changes in intracellular calcium through calcium channel activity is fundamental for integral cellular processes such as proliferation, migration, differentiation and survival in a range of cell types, under both normal and pathological conditions. Here in we highlight how calcium channels represent a key mechanism involved in CSC function. It is clear that expression and or function of a number of channels involved in calcium entry and intracellular store release are altered in CSC's. Correlating with aberrant proliferation, self-renewal and differentiation, which in turn promoted cancer progression and treatment resistance. Research outlined has demonstrated that targeting altered calcium channels in CSC populations can reduce their stem properties and induce terminal differentiation, sensitising them to existing cancer treatments. Overall this highlights calcium channels as emerging novel targets for CSC therapies.

Abstract
Cancer stem cells are a subpopulation of tumor cells that proliferate, self-renew and produce more differentiated tumoral cells building-up the tumor. Responsible for the sustained growth of malignant tumors, cancer stem cells are proposed to play significant roles in cancer resistance to standard treatment and in tumor recurrence. Among the mechanisms dysregulated in neoplasms, those related to Ca2+ play significant roles in various aspects of cancers. Ca2+ is a ubiquitous second messenger whose fluctuations of its intracellular concentrations are tightly controlled by channels, pumps, exchangers and Ca2+ binding proteins. These components support the genesis of Ca2+ signals with specific spatio-temporal characteristics that define the cell response. Being involved in the coupling of extracellular events with intracellular responses, the Ca2+ toolkit is often hijacked by cancer cells to promote notably their proliferation and invasion. Growing evidence obtained during the last decade pointed to a role of Ca2+ handling and mishandling in cancer stem cells. In this review, after a general overview of the concept of cancer stem cells we analyse and discuss the studies and current knowledge regarding the complex roles of Ca2+ toolkit and signaling in these cells. We highlight that numbers of Ca2+ signaling actors promote cancer stem cell state and are associated with cell resistance to current cancer treatments and thus may represent promising targets for potential clinical applications.

Abstract
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a highly devastating cancer. Ca2+-dependent channels are now considered key regulators of tumor progression. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association of non-voltage gated Ca2+ channels and Ca2+-dependent potassium channels (KCa) with CRC using the transcriptional profile of their genes. Methods: We selected a total of 35 genes covering KCa channels KCNN1–4, KCNMA1 and their subunits KCNMB1–4, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium sensors STIM1 and STIM2, Ca2+ channels ORAI1–3 and the family of cation channels TRP (TRPC1–7, TRPA1, TRPV1/2,4–6 and TRPM1–8). We analyzed their expression in two public CRC datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and GSE39582. Results: KCNN4 and TRPM2 were induced while KCNMA1 and TRPM6 were downregulated in tumor tissues comparing to normal tissues. In proximal tumors, STIM2 and KCNN2 were upregulated while ORAI2 and TRPM6 were downregulated. ORAI1 decreased in lymph node metastatic tumors. TRPC1 and ORAI3 predicted poor prognosis in CRC patients. Moreover, we found that ORAI3/ORAI1 ratio is increased in CRC progression and predicted poor prognosis. Conclusions: KCa and Ca2+ channels could be important contributors to CRC initiation and progression. Our results provide new insights on KCa and Ca2+ channels remodeling in CRC.

Abstract
The use of graphene nanomaterials (GNMs) for biomedical applications targeted to the central nervous system is exponentially increasing, although precise information on their effects on brain cells is lacking. In this work, the molecular changes induced in cortical astrocytes by few-layer graphene (FLG) and graphene oxide (GO) flakes are addressed. The results show that exposure to FLG/GO does not affect cell viability or proliferation. However, proteomic and lipidomic analyses unveil alterations in several cellular processes, including intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+ ]i ) homeostasis and cholesterol metabolism, which are particularly intense in cells exposed to GO. Indeed, GO exposure impairs spontaneous and evoked astrocyte [Ca2+ ]i signals and induces a marked increase in membrane cholesterol levels. Importantly, cholesterol depletion fully rescues [Ca2+ ]i dynamics in GO-treated cells, indicating a causal relationship between these GO-mediated effects. The results indicate that exposure to GNMs alters intracellular signaling in astrocytes and may impact astrocyte-neuron interactions.

Abstract
Alterations in the (bio)chemical and physical microenvironment of cells accompany and often promote disease formation and progression. This is particularly well established for solid cancers, which are typically stiffer than the healthy tissue in which they arise, and often display profound acidification of their interstitial fluid. Cell surface receptors can sense changes in the mechanical and (bio)chemical properties of the surrounding extracellular matrix and fluid, and signalling through these receptors is thought to play a key role in disease development and advancement. This review will look at ion channels and G protein coupled receptors that are activated by mechanical cues and extracellular acidosis, and stimulation of which results in increases in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations. Cellular Ca2+ levels are dysregulated in cancer as well as cancer-associated cells, and mechano- and proton-sensing proteins likely contribute to these aberrant intracellular Ca2+ signals, making them attractive targets for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Carcinogenesis is a very complex process in which metals have been found to be critically involved. In this sense, a disturbed redox status and metal dyshomeostasis take place during the onset and progression of cancer, and it is well-known that trace elements participate in the activation or inhibition of enzymatic reactions and metalloproteins, in which they usually participate as cofactors. Until now, the role of metals in cancer have been studied as an effect, establishing that cancer onset and progression affects the disturbance of the natural chemical form of the essential elements in the metabolism. However, it has also been studied as a cause, giving insights related to the high exposure of metals giving a place to the carcinogenic process. On the other hand, the chemical species of the metal or metallobiomolecule is very important, since it finally affects the biological activity or the toxicological potential of the element and their mobility across different biological compartments. Moreover, the importance of metal homeostasis and metals interactions in biology has also been demonstrated, and the ratios between some elements were found to be different in cancer patients; however, the interplay of elements is rarely reported. This review focuses on the critical role of metals in lung cancer, which is one of the most insidious forms of cancer, with special attention to the analytical approaches and pitfalls to extract metals and their species from tissues and biofluids, determining the ratios of metals, obtaining classification profiles, and finally defining the metallome of lung cancer.

Abstract
Although VPAC1 and its ligand vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) are important in gastrointestinal physiology, their involvements in progression of gastrointestinal tumor have not been explored. Here, we found that higher expression of VIP/VPAC1 was observed in gastric cancer compared to the adjacent normal tissues. The increased expression of VIP/VPAC1 in gastric cancer correlated positively with invasion, tumor stage, lymph node, distant metastases, and poor survival. Moreover, high expression of VIP and VPAC1, advanced tumor stage and distant metastasis were independent prognostic factors. VPAC1 activation by VIP markedly induced TRPV4-mediated Ca2+ entry, and eventually promoted gastric cancer progression in a Ca2+ signaling-dependent manner. Inhibition of VPAC1 and its signaling pathway could block the progressive responses. VPAC1/TRPV4/Ca2+ signaling in turn enhanced the expression and secretion of VIP in gastric cancer cells, enforcing a positive feedback regulation mechanism. Taken together, our study demonstrate that VPAC1 is significantly overexpressed in gastric cancer and VPAC1/TRPV4/Ca2+ signaling axis could enforce a positive feedback regulation in gastric cancer progression. VIP/VPAC1 may serve as potential prognostic markers and therapeutic targets for gastric cancer.

The Activity of Kv 11.1 Potassium Channel Modulates F-Actin Organization During Cell Migration of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Cells. Cancers (Basel) 2019; 11:cancers11020135.

Abstract
Cell migration exerts a pivotal role in tumor progression, underlying cell invasion and metastatic spread. The cell migratory program requires f-actin re-organization, generally coordinated with the assembly of focal adhesions. Ion channels are emerging actors in regulating cell migration, through different mechanisms. We studied the role of the voltage dependent potassium channel KV 11.1 on cell migration of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells, focusing on its effects on f-actin organization and dynamics. Cells were cultured either on fibronectin (FN) or on a desmoplastic matrix (DM) with the addition of a conditioned medium produced by pancreatic stellate cells (PSC) maintained in hypoxia (Hypo-PSC-CM), to better mimic the PDAC microenvironment. KV11.1 was essential to maintain stress fibers in a less organized arrangement in cells cultured on FN. When PDAC cells were cultured on DM plus Hypo-PSC-CM, KV11.1 activity determined the organization of cortical f-actin into sparse and long filopodia, and allowed f-actin polymerization at a high speed. In both conditions, blocking KV11.1 impaired PDAC cell migration, and, on cells cultured onto FN, the effect was accompanied by a decrease of basal intracellular Ca2+ concentration. We conclude that KV11.1 is implicated in sustaining pro-metastatic signals in pancreatic cancer, through a reorganization of f-actin in stress fibers and a modulation of filopodia formation and dynamics.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate preoperative serum calcium concentration and investigate the association between calcium level and positive peritoneal cytology in endometrial carcinoma (EC). Methods A total of 510 patients who were diagnosed with EC and had surgery were initially enrolled in this study at Peking University People’s Hospital between January 2012 and December 2016. Clinical characteristics and preoperative serum calcium, albumin, carbohydrate antigen (CA)125, CA19-9, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) were extracted from patient records and evaluated according to postoperative peritoneal cytology. Predictive factors were assessed with Cox univariate and multivariate analyses. Factors selected from multivariate analysis results were used to build a predictive model. Results A total of 510 patients are identified in our database and 444 patients who fulfilled inclusion and exclusion criteria are included in this study. Univariate analysis revealed that ionized calcium concentration was closely related to positive peritoneal cytology, tumor grade and lymph-vascular space invasion (LVSI). Moreover, peritoneal cytology was significantly associated with hypertension, tubal ligation, serum CA125, CA19-9, CEA and ionized calcium level. Multivariate analysis revealed that albumin-adjusted calcium level, CA125 and tubal ligation were independent predictive factors of positive peritoneal cytology (P<0.05). A combination of ionized calcium level with the other two indexes yielded significantly great area under the curve (AUC=0.824). Conclusions This study enhanced the value of preoperative ionized calcium level. We also identified several potential biomarkers to predict positive peritoneal cytology in EC patients before surgery.

Abstract
Genomic instability is a primary cause and fundamental feature of human cancer. However, all cancer cell genotypes generally translate into several common pathophysiological features, often referred to as cancer hallmarks. Although nowadays the catalog of cancer hallmarks is quite broad, the most common and obvious of them are 1) uncontrolled proliferation, 2) resistance to programmed cell death (apoptosis), 3) tissue invasion and metastasis, and 4) sustained angiogenesis. Among the genes affected by cancer, those encoding ion channels are present. Membrane proteins responsible for signaling within cell and among cells, for coupling of extracellular events with intracellular responses, and for maintaining intracellular ionic homeostasis ion channels contribute to various extents to pathophysiological features of each cancer hallmark. Moreover, tight association of these hallmarks with ion channel dysfunction gives a good reason to classify them as special type of channelopathies, namely oncochannelopathies. Although the relation of cancer hallmarks to ion channel dysfunction differs from classical definition of channelopathies, as disease states causally linked with inherited mutations of ion channel genes that alter channel's biophysical properties, in a broader context of the disease state, to which pathogenesis ion channels essentially contribute, such classification seems absolutely appropriate. In this review the authors provide arguments to substantiate such point of view.

Abstract
Ion homeostasis is extremely important for the survival of both normal as well as neoplastic cells. The altered ion homeostasis found in cancer cells prompted the investigation of several ionophores as potential anticancer agents. Few ionophores, such as Salinomycin, Nigericin and Obatoclax, have demonstrated potent anticancer activities against cancer stem-like cells that are considered highly resistant to chemotherapy and responsible for tumor relapse. The preclinical success of these compounds in in vitro and in vivo models have not been translated into clinical trials. At present, phase I/II clinical trials demonstrated limited benefit of Obatoclax alone or in combination with other anticancer drugs. However, future development in targeted drug delivery may be useful to improve the efficacy of these compounds. Alternatively, these compounds may be used as leading molecules for the development of less toxic derivatives.

Abstract
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease that is characterized by the presence of functional endometrial-like lesions in the abdominal cavity. Aside from epithelial cells, these lesions consist of stromal cells that have the capacity to migrate, adhere, proliferate, and induce neuro- and lymphangiogenesis, which allows them to survive at ectopic locations. However, the exact underlying mechanisms that regulate these changes are yet to be elucidated. The common ground of these processes, however, is the second messenger, calcium. In this regard, members of the superfamily of transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels, which are known to be calcium-permeable and expressed in the endometrium, have emerged as key regulators. Here, we assessed the molecular and functional expression of TRP channels in stromal cells isolated from the eutopic endometrium of endometriosis patients and controls. Using RT-qPCR, high mRNA levels of TRPV2, TRPV4, TRPM4, TRPM7, TRPC1, TRPC3, TRPC4, and TRPC6 were observed in the whole endometrium throughout the menstrual cycle. Additionally, and in line with previous reports of control patients, TRPV2, TRPV4, TRPC1/4, and TRPC6 were present in human endometrial stromal cells (hESC) from endometriosis patients both at the molecular and functional level. Moreover, proliferation and migration assays illustrated that these parameters were not affected in stromal cells from endometriosis patients. Furthermore, comparison between eutopic and ectopic endometrial samples revealed that the RNA expression pattern of TRP channels did not differ significantly. Collectively, although a functional expression of specific ion channels in hESCs was found, their expression did not correlate with endometriosis.

Abstract
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified the chromosome 15q25.1 locus as a leading susceptibility region for lung cancer. However, the pathogenic pathways, through which susceptibility SNPs within chromosome 15q25.1 affects lung cancer risk, have not been explored. We analyzed three cohorts with GWAS data consisting 42,901 individuals and lung expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) data on 409 individuals to identify and validate the underlying pathways and to investigate the combined effect of genes from the identified susceptibility pathways. The KEGG neuroactive ligand receptor interaction pathway, two Reactome pathways, and 22 Gene Ontology terms were identified and replicated to be significantly associated with lung cancer risk, with P values less than 0.05 and FDR less than 0.1. Functional annotation of eQTL analysis results showed that the neuroactive ligand receptor interaction pathway and gated channel activity were involved in lung cancer risk. These pathways provide important insights for the etiology of lung cancer.

Abstract
Continuous Ca2+ influx is essential to maintain intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis and its dysregulation leads to a variety of cellular dysfunctions. In this study, we explored the functional roles of spontaneous Ca2+ influx for the proliferation and differentiation of a human erythromyeloid leukemia cell line K562. mRNA/protein expressions were assessed by the real-time RT-PCR, western blotting, and immunocytochemical staining. Intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+ ]i ) and ionic currents were measured by fluorescent imaging and patch clamping techniques, respectively. Cell counting/viability and colorimetric assays were applied to assess proliferation rate and hemoglobin synthesis, respectively. Elimination of extracellular Ca2+ decreased basal [Ca2+ ]i in proliferating K562 cells. Cation channel blockers such as SK&F96365, 2-APB, Gd3+ , and FTY720 dose dependently decreased basal [Ca2+ ]i . A spontaneously active inward current (Ispont ) contributive to basal [Ca2+ ]i was identified by the nystatin-perforated whole-cell recording. Ispont permeated Ca2+ comparably to Na+ , and was greatly eliminated by siRNA targeting TRPM7, a melastatin member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily. Consistent with these findings, TRPM7 immune reactivity was detected by western blotting, and immunofluorescence representing TRPM7 was found localized to the K562 cell membrane. Strikingly, all these procedures, that is, Ca2+ removal, TRPM7 blockers and siRNA-mediated TRPM7 knockdown significantly retarded the growth and suppressed hemin-induced γ-globin and hemoglobin syntheses in K562 cells, respectively, both of which appeared associated with the inhibition of ERK activation. These results collectively suggest that spontaneous Ca2+ influx through constitutively active TRPM7 channels may critically regulate both proliferative and erythroid differentiation potentials of K562 cells.

Carbonate Apatite Nanoparticles-Facilitated Intracellular Delivery of siRNA(s) Targeting Calcium Ion Channels Efficiently Kills Breast Cancer Cells. TOXICS 2018; 6:toxics6030034.

Abstract
Specific gene knockdown facilitated by short interfering RNA (siRNA) is a potential approach for suppressing the expression of ion channels and transporter proteins to kill breast cancer cells. The overexpression of calcium ion channels and transporter genes is seen in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. Since naked siRNA is anionic and prone to nuclease-mediated degradation, it has limited permeability across the cationic cell membrane and short systemic half-life, respectively. Carbonate apatite (CA) nanoparticles were formulated, characterized, loaded with a series of siRNAs, and delivered into MCF-7 and 4T1 breast cancer cells to selectively knockdown the respective calcium and magnesium ion channels and transporters. Individual knockdown of TRPC6, TRPM7, TRPM8, SLC41A1, SLC41A2, ORAI1, ORAI3, and ATP2C1 genes showed significant reduction (p < 0.001) in cell viability depending on the cancer cell type. From a variety of combinations of siRNAs, the combination of TRPC6, TRPM8, SLC41A2, and MAGT1 siRNAs delivered via CA produced the greatest cell viability reduction, resulting in a cytotoxicity effect of 57.06 ± 3.72% (p < 0.05) and 59.83 ± 2.309% (p = 0.09) in 4T1 and MCF-7 cell lines, respectively. Some of the combinations were shown to suppress the Akt pathway in Western Blot analysis when compared to the controls. Therefore, CA-siRNA-facilitated gene knockdown in vitro holds a high prospect for deregulating cell proliferation and survival pathways through the modulation of Ca2+ signaling in breast cancer cells.

Abstract
Cancer cells secrete copious amounts of exosomes, and elevated intracellular Ca2+ is critical for tumor progression and metastasis, but the underlying cellular mechanisms are unknown. Munc13-4 is a Ca2+-dependent SNAP receptor- and Rab-binding protein required for Ca2+-dependent membrane fusion. Here we show that acute elevation of Ca2+ in cancer cells stimulated a fivefold increase in CD63+, CD9+, and ALIX+ exosome release that was eliminated by Munc13-4 knockdown and not restored by Ca2+ binding-deficient Munc13-4 mutants. Direct imaging of CD63-pHluorin exosome release confirmed its Munc13-4 dependence. Depletion of Munc13-4 in highly aggressive breast carcinoma MDA-MB-231 cells reduced the size of CD63+ multivesicular bodies (MVBs), indicating a role for Munc13-4 in MVB maturation. Munc13-4 used a Rab11-dependent trafficking pathway to generate MVBs competent for exosome release. Membrane type 1 matrix metalloproteinase trafficking to MVBs by a Rab11-dependent pathway was also Munc13-4 dependent, and Munc13-4 depletion reduced extracellular matrix degradation. These studies identify a novel Ca2+- and Munc13-4-dependent pathway that underlies increased exosome release by cancer cells.

Abstract
Cancer cell survival is dependent on oxidative-stress defenses against reactive oxygen species (ROS) that accumulate during tumorigenesis. Here, we show a non-canonical oxidative-stress defense mechanism through TRPA1, a neuronal redox-sensing Ca2+-influx channel. In TRPA1-enriched breast and lung cancer spheroids, TRPA1 is critical for survival of inner cells that exhibit ROS accumulation. Moreover, TRPA1 promotes resistance to ROS-producing chemotherapies, and TRPA1 inhibition suppresses xenograft tumor growth and enhances chemosensitivity. TRPA1 does not affect redox status but upregulates Ca2+-dependent anti-apoptotic pathways. NRF2, an oxidant-defense transcription factor, directly controls TRPA1 expression, thus providing an orthogonal mechanism for protection against oxidative stress together with canonical ROS-neutralizing mechanisms. These findings reveal an oxidative-stress defense program involving TRPA1 that could be exploited for targeted cancer therapies.

Oncogenic KRAS suppresses store-operated Ca 2+ entry and I CRAC through ERK pathway-dependent remodelling of STIM expression in colorectal cancer cell lines. Cell Calcium 2018; 72:70-80. [PMID: 29748135 PMCID: PMC6291847 DOI: 10.1016/j.ceca.2018.03.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2018] [Revised: 03/13/2018] [Accepted: 03/13/2018] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
The KRAS GTPase plays a fundamental role in transducing signals from plasma membrane growth factor receptors to downstream signalling pathways controlling cell proliferation, survival and migration. Activating KRAS mutations are found in 20% of all cancers and in up to 40% of colorectal cancers, where they contribute to dysregulation of cell processes underlying oncogenic transformation. Multiple KRAS-regulated cell functions are also influenced by changes in intracellular Ca2+ levels that are concurrently modified by receptor signalling pathways. Suppression of intracellular Ca2+ release mechanisms can confer a survival advantage in cancer cells, and changes in Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane modulate cell migration and proliferation. However, inconsistent remodelling of Ca2+ influx and its signalling role has been reported in studies of transformed cells. To isolate the interaction between altered Ca2+ handling and mutated KRAS in colorectal cancer, we have previously employed isogenic cell line pairs, differing by the presence of an oncogenic KRAS allele (encoding KRASG13D), and have shown that reduced Ca2+ release from the ER and mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake contributes to the survival advantage conferred by oncogenic KRAS. Here we show in the same cell lines, that Store-Operated Ca2+ Entry (SOCE) and its underlying current, ICRAC are under the influence of KRASG13D. Specifically, deletion of the oncogenic KRAS allele resulted in enhanced STIM1 expression and greater Ca2+ influx. Consistent with the role of KRAS in the activation of the ERK pathway, MEK inhibition in cells with KRASG13D resulted in increased STIM1 expression. Further, ectopic expression of STIM1 in HCT 116 cells (which express KRASG13D) rescued SOCE, demonstrating a fundamental role of STIM1 in suppression of Ca2+ entry downstream of KRASG13D. These results add to the understanding of how ERK controls cancer cell physiology and highlight STIM1 as an important biomarker in cancerogenesis.

Deregulation of calcium homeostasis in Bcr-Abl-dependent chronic myeloid leukemia. Oncotarget 2018; 9:26309-26327. [PMID: 29899861 PMCID: PMC5995172 DOI: 10.18632/oncotarget.25241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2017] [Accepted: 04/03/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) results from hematopoietic stem cell transformation by the bcr-abl chimeric oncogene, encoding a 210 kDa protein with constitutive tyrosine kinase activity. In spite of the efficiency of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI; Imatinib), other strategies are explored to eliminate CML leukemia stem cells, such as calcium pathways. Results In this work, we showed that Store-Operated Calcium Entry (SOCE) and thrombin induced calcium influx were decreased in Bcr-Abl expressing 32d cells (32d-p210). The 32d-p210 cells showed modified Orai1/STIM1 ratio and reduced TRPC1 expression that could explain SOCE reduction. Decrease in SOCE and thrombin induced calcium entry was associated to reduced Nuclear Factor of Activated T cells (NFAT) nucleus translocation in 32d-p210 cells. We demonstrated that SOCE blockers enhanced cell mobility of 32d-p210 cells and reduced the proliferation rate in both 32d cell lines. TKI treatment slightly reduced the thrombin-induced response, but imatinib restored SOCE to the wild type level. Bcr-Abl is also known to deregulate Protein Kinase C (PKC), which was described to modulate calcium entries. We showed that PKC enhances SOCE and thrombin induced calcium entries in control cells while this effect is lost in Bcr-Abl-expressing cells. Conclusion The tyrosine kinase activity seems to regulate calcium entries probably not directly but through a global cellular reorganization involving a PKC pathway. Altogether, calcium entries are deregulated in Bcr-Abl-expressing cells and could represent an interesting therapeutic target in combination with TKI.

Essential role of Na+/Ca2+ exchanger 1 in smoking-induced growth and migration of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Oncotarget 2018; 7:63816-63828. [PMID: 27588478 PMCID: PMC5325406 DOI: 10.18632/oncotarget.11695] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2016] [Accepted: 08/24/2016] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Tobacco-derived carcinogen 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) is a major environmental risk factor for the pathogenesis of human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, the molecular mechanisms by which tobacco induces ESCC are not well understood. Na+/Ca2+ exchanger 1 (NCX1) is a plasma membrane transporter protein that plays an essential role in maintaining cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]cyt) homeostasis under physiological conditions and is implicated in tumorigenesis as well. In this study, we found that NCX1 expression was significantly higher in ESCC primary tissues compared to the noncancerous tissues and was overexpressed in tumor samples from the smoking patients. The expression of NCX1 proteins was also significantly higher in human ESCC cell lines compared to normal esophageal epithelial cell line. Moreover, NNK potentiated the [Ca2+]cyt signaling induced by removal of extracellular Na+, which was abolished by KB-R7943 or SN-6. NNK dose-dependently promoted proliferation and migration of human ESCC cells induced by NCX1 activation. Therefore, NCX1 expression correlates with the smoking status of ESCC patients, and NNK activates the Ca2+ entry mode of NCX1 in ESCC cells, leading to cell proliferation and migration. Our findings suggest NCX1 protein is a novel potential target for ESCC therapy.

[PMID: 29636894 PMCID: PMC5883416 DOI: 10.1186/s13578-018-0223-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 49] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2018] [Accepted: 03/26/2018] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Although the study of calcium (Ca2+) is classically associated with excitable cells such as myocytes or neurons, the ubiquity of this essential element in all cellular processes has led to interest in other cell types. The importance of Ca2+ to apoptosis, cell signaling, and immune activation is of special import in cancer. Main Here we review the current understanding of Ca2+ in each of these processes vital to the initiation, spread, and drug resistance of malignancies. We describe the involvement of Ca2+, and Ca2+ related proteins in cell cycle checkpoints and Ca2+ dependent apoptosis and discuss their roles in cellular immortalization. The role of Ca2+ in inter-cellular communication is also discussed in relevance to tumor-stromal communication, angiogenesis, and tumor microinvasion. The role that Ca2+ plays in immune surveillance and evasion is also addressed. Finally, we discuss the possibility of targeting Ca2+ singling to address the most pressing topics of cancer treatment: metastatic disease and drug resistance. Conclusion This review discusses the current understanding of Ca2+ in cancer. By addressing Ca2+ facilitated angiogenesis, immune evasion, metastasis, and drug resistance, we anticipate future avenues for development of Ca2+ as a nexus of therapy.
