Abstract
Metabotropic glutamate receptors type 1 (mGluR1s) are required for a normal function of the mammalian brain. They are particularly important for synaptic signaling and plasticity in the cerebellum. Unlike ionotropic glutamate receptors that mediate rapid synaptic transmission, mGluR1s produce in cerebellar Purkinje cells a complex postsynaptic response consisting of two distinct signal components, namely a local dendritic calcium signal and a slow excitatory postsynaptic potential. The basic mechanisms underlying these synaptic responses were clarified in recent years. First, the work of several groups established that the dendritic calcium signal results from IP(3) receptor-mediated calcium release from internal stores. Second, it was recently found that mGluR1-mediated slow excitatory postsynaptic potentials are mediated by the transient receptor potential channel TRPC3. This surprising finding established TRPC3 as a novel postsynaptic channel for glutamatergic synaptic transmission.

Abstract
Changes in the intracellular concentration of calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)) represent a vital signaling mechanism enabling communication among cells and between cells and the environment. The initiation of embryo development depends on a [Ca(2+)](i) increase(s) in the egg, which is generally induced during fertilization. The [Ca(2+)](i) increase signals egg activation, which is the first stage in embryo development, and that consist of biochemical and structural changes that transform eggs into zygotes. The spatiotemporal patterns of [Ca(2+)](i) at fertilization show variability, most likely reflecting adaptations to fertilizing conditions and to the duration of embryonic cell cycles. In mammals, the focus of this review, the fertilization [Ca(2+)](i) signal displays unique properties in that it is initiated after gamete fusion by release of a sperm-derived factor and by periodic and extended [Ca(2+)](i) responses. Here, we will discuss the events of egg activation regulated by increases in [Ca(2+)](i), the possible downstream targets that effect these egg activation events, and the property and identity of molecules both in sperm and eggs that underpin the initiation and persistence of the [Ca(2+)](i) responses in these species.

KRAS-induced actin-interacting protein is required for the proper localization of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor in the epithelial cells. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2011; 407:438-43.

Abstract
Three inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP(3)R) subtypes are differentially expressed among tissues and function as the Ca(2+) release channel on specialized endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes. The proper subcellular localization of IP(3)R is crucial for its proper function, but this molecular mechanism is unclear. KRAS-induced actin-interacting protein (KRAP) was originally identified as a cancer-related molecule, and is involved in the regulation of whole-body energy homeostasis and pancreatic exocrine system. We herein identified IP(3)R as an associated molecule with KRAP in vivo, and the association was validated by the co-immunoprecipitation and confocal immunostaining studies in mouse tissues including liver and pancreas. The association of KRAP with IP(3)R was also observed in the human epithelial cell lines including HCT116, HeLa and HEK293 cells. Intriguingly, KRAP interacts with distinct subtypes of IP(3)R in a tissue-dependent manner, i.e. IP(3)R1 and IP(3)R2 in the liver and IP(3)R2 and IP(3)R3 in the pancreas. The NH(2)-terminal amino acid residues 1-610 of IP(3)R are critical for the association with KRAP and KRAP-IP(3)R complex resides in a specialized ER but not a typical reticular ER. Furthermore, the localization of particular IP(3)R subtypes in tissues from KRAP-deficient mice is obviously disturbed, i.e. IP(3)R1 and IP(3)R2 in the liver and IP(3)R2 and IP(3)R3 in the pancreas. These findings demonstrate that KRAP physically associates with IP(3)R and regulates the proper localization of IP(3)R in the epithelial cells in vivo and cultured cells, and might shed light on the Ca(2+) signaling underlying physiological cellular programs, cancer development and metabolism-related diseases.

Abstract
The tight interplay between endoplasmic-reticulum-(ER-) and mitochondria-mediated Ca(2+) signaling is a key determinant of cellular health and cellular fate through the control of apoptosis and autophagy. Proteins that prevent or promote apoptosis and autophagy can affect intracellular Ca(2+) dynamics and homeostasis through binding and modulation of the intracellular Ca(2+)-release and Ca(2+)-uptake mechanisms. During aging, oxidative stress becomes an additional factor that affects ER and mitochondrial function and thus their role in Ca(2+) signaling. Importantly, mitochondrial dysfunction and sustained mitochondrial damage are likely to underlie part of the aging process. In this paper, we will discuss the different mechanisms that control intracellular Ca(2+) signaling with respect to apoptosis and autophagy and review how these processes are affected during aging through accumulation of reactive oxygen species.

Abstract
In our previous studies, we have demonstrated that the Src-coupled α1 Na/K-ATPase works as a receptor for cardiotonic steroids, such as ouabain, to regulate cellular protein kinase cascades. Here, we explore further the structural determinants of the interaction between the α1 Na/K-ATPase and Src and demonstrate that the Src-coupled α1 Na/K-ATPase allows the cell to decode the transmembrane transport activity of the Na/K-ATPase to turn on/off protein kinases. The α1 Na/K-ATPase undergoes E1/E2 conformational transition during an ion pumping cycle. The amount of E1 and E2 Na/K-ATPase is regulated by extracellular K(+) and intracellular Na(+). Using purified enzyme preparations we find that the E1 Na/K-ATPase can bind both the Src SH2 and kinase domains simultaneously and keep Src in an inactive state. Conversely, the E1 to E2 transition releases the kinase domain and activates the associated Src. Moreover, we demonstrate that changes in E1/E2 Na/K-ATPase by either Na(+) or K(+) are capable of regulating Src and Src effectors in live cells. Together, the data suggest that the Src-coupled α1 Na/K-ATPase may act as a Na(+)/K(+) receptor, allowing salt to regulate cellular function through Src and Src effectors.

Abstract
Synaptic release of neurotransmitters is evoked by activity-dependent Ca(2+) entry into the nerve terminal. However, here it is shown that robust synaptic neuropeptide release from Drosophila motoneurons is evoked in the absence of extracellular Ca(2+) by octopamine, the arthropod homolog to norepinephrine. Genetic and pharmacology experiments demonstrate that this surprising peptidergic transmission requires cAMP-dependent protein kinase, with only a minor contribution of exchange protein activated by cAMP (epac). Octopamine-evoked neuropeptide release also requires endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) mobilization by the ryanodine receptor and the inositol trisphosphate receptor. Hence, rather than relying exclusively on activity-dependent Ca(2+) entry into the nerve terminal, a behaviorally important neuromodulator uses synergistic cAMP-dependent protein kinase and endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) signaling to induce synaptic neuropeptide release.

Abstract
The phospholipidic signal transduction system involves generation of second messengers by hydrolysis or changes in phosphorylation state. Several studies have shown that the signaling pathway forms part of plant response to phytoregulators such as salicylic acid (SA) and methyl jasmonate (MJ), which have been widely used to stimulate secondary metabolite production in cell cultures. An evaluation was made of the effect of SA and MJ on phospholipidic signaling and capsaicinoid production in Capsicum chinense Jacq. suspension cells. Treatment with SA inhibited phospholipase C (PLC) (EC: 3.1.4.3) and phospholipase D (PLD) (EC: 3.1.4.4) activities in vitro, but increased lipid kinase activities in vitro at different SA concentrations. Treatment with MJ produced increases in PLC and PLD activities, while lipid kinase activities were variable and dose-dependent. The production of vanillin, a precursor of capsaicinoids, increased at specific SA or MJ doses. Preincubation with neomycin, a phospholipase inhibitor, before SA or MJ treatment inhibits increase in vanillin production which suggests that phospholipidic second messengers may participate in the observed increase in vanillin production.

Abstract
While research on the actions of ethanol at the GABAergic synapse has focused on postsynaptic mechanisms, recent data have demonstrated that ethanol also facilitates GABA release from presynaptic terminals in many, but not all, brain regions. The ability of ethanol to increase GABA release can be regulated by different G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), such as the cannabinoid-1 receptor, corticotropin-releasing factor 1 receptor, GABA(B) receptor, and the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2C receptor. The intracellular messengers linked to these GPCRs, including the calcium that is released from internal stores, also play a role in ethanol-enhanced GABA release. Hypotheses are proposed to explain how ethanol interacts with the GPCR pathways to increase GABA release and how this interaction contributes to the brain region specificity of ethanol-enhanced GABA release. Defining the mechanism of ethanol-facilitated GABA release will further our understanding of the GABAergic profile of ethanol and increase our knowledge of how GABAergic neurotransmission may contribute to the intoxicating effects of alcohol and to alcohol dependence.

Abstract
The amount of Ca(2+) taken up in the mitochondrial matrix is a crucial determinant of cell fate; it plays a decisive role in the choice of the cell between life and death. The Ca(2+) ions mainly originate from the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3))-sensitive Ca(2+) stores of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The uptake of these Ca(2+) ions in the mitochondria depends on the functional properties and the subcellular localization of the IP(3) receptor (IP(3)R) in discrete domains near the mitochondria. To allow for an efficient transfer of the Ca(2+) ions from the ER to the mitochondria, structural interactions between IP(3)Rs and mitochondria are needed. This review will focus on the key proteins involved in these interactions, how they are regulated, and what are their physiological roles in apoptosis, necrosis and autophagy. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: 11th European Symposium on Calcium.

Abstract
The ubiquitous inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP(3)) receptor (InsP(3)R) channel, localized primarily in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane, releases Ca(2+) into the cytoplasm upon binding InsP(3), generating and modulating intracellular Ca(2+) signals that regulate numerous physiological processes. Together with the number of channels activated and the open probability of the active channels, the size of the unitary Ca(2+) current (i(Ca)) passing through an open InsP(3)R channel determines the amount of Ca(2+) released from the ER store, and thus the amplitude and the spatial and temporal nature of Ca(2+) signals generated in response to extracellular stimuli. Despite its significance, i(Ca) for InsP(3)R channels in physiological ionic conditions has not been directly measured. Here, we report the first measurement of i(Ca) through an InsP(3)R channel in its native membrane environment under physiological ionic conditions. Nuclear patch clamp electrophysiology with rapid perfusion solution exchanges was used to study the conductance properties of recombinant homotetrameric rat type 3 InsP(3)R channels. Within physiological ranges of free Ca(2+) concentrations in the ER lumen ([Ca(2+)](ER)), free cytoplasmic [Ca(2+)] ([Ca(2+)](i)), and symmetric free [Mg(2+)] ([Mg(2+)](f)), the i(Ca)-[Ca(2+)](ER) relation was linear, with no detectable dependence on [Mg(2+)](f). i(Ca) was 0.15 +/- 0.01 pA for a filled ER store with 500 microM [Ca(2+)](ER). The i(Ca)-[Ca(2+)](ER) relation suggests that Ca(2+) released by an InsP(3)R channel raises [Ca(2+)](i) near the open channel to approximately 13-70 microM, depending on [Ca(2+)](ER). These measurements have implications for the activities of nearby InsP(3)-liganded InsP(3)R channels, and they confirm that Ca(2+) released by an open InsP(3)R channel is sufficient to activate neighboring channels at appropriate distances away, promoting Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release.

Abstract
The promyelocytic leukemia (PML) tumor suppressor is a pleiotropic modulator of apoptosis. However, the molecular basis for such a diverse proapoptotic role is currently unknown. We show that extranuclear Pml was specifically enriched at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and at the mitochondria-associated membranes, signaling domains involved in ER-to-mitochondria calcium ion (Ca(2+)) transport and in induction of apoptosis. We found Pml in complexes of large molecular size with the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP(3)R), protein kinase Akt, and protein phosphatase 2a (PP2a). Pml was essential for Akt- and PP2a-dependent modulation of IP(3)R phosphorylation and in turn for IP(3)R-mediated Ca(2+) release from ER. Our findings provide a mechanistic explanation for the pleiotropic role of Pml in apoptosis and identify a pharmacological target for the modulation of Ca(2+) signals.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP(3)R) and their relatives, ryanodine receptors, are the channels that most often mediate Ca(2+) release from intracellular stores. Their regulation by Ca(2+) allows them also to propagate cytosolic Ca(2+) signals regeneratively. This brief review addresses the structural basis of IP(3)R activation by IP(3) and Ca(2+). IP(3) initiates IP(3)R activation by promoting Ca(2+) binding to a stimulatory Ca(2+)-binding site, the identity of which is unresolved. We suggest that interactions of critical phosphate groups in IP(3) with opposite sides of the clam-like IP(3)-binding core cause it to close and propagate a conformational change toward the pore via the adjacent N-terminal suppressor domain. The pore, assembled from the last pair of transmembrane domains and the intervening pore loop from each of the four IP(3)R subunits, forms a structure in which a luminal selectivity filter and a gate at the cytosolic end of the pore control cation fluxes through the IP(3)R.

Abstract
Microvillous cells of the main olfactory epithelium have been described variously as primary olfactory neurons, secondary chemosensory cells or non-sensory cells. Here we generated an IP3R3(tm1(tauGFP)) mouse in which the coding region for a fusion protein of tau and green fluorescent protein replaces the first exon of the Itpr3 gene. We provide immunohistochemical and functional characterization of the cells expressing IP3 receptor type 3 in the olfactory epithelium. These cells bear microvilli at their apex, and we therefore termed them IP3R3 MV cells. The cell body of these IP3R3 MV cells lies in the upper third of the main olfactory epithelium; a long thick basal process projects towards the base of the epithelium without penetrating the basal lamina. Retrograde labeling and unilateral bulbectomy corroborated that these IP3R3 MV cells do not extend axons to the olfactory bulb and therefore are not olfactory sensory neurons. The immunohistochemical features of IP3R3 MV cells varied, suggesting either developmental stages or the existence of subsets of these cells. Thus, for example, subsets of the IP3R3 MV cells make contact with substance P fibers or express the purinergic receptor P2X3. In addition, in recordings of intracellular calcium, these cells respond to ATP and substance P as well as to a variety of odors. The characterization of IP3R3 MV cells as non-neuronal chemoresponsive cells helps to explain the differing descriptions of microvillous cells in the literature.

Abstract
A large fraction of the proteome is synthesized and folded in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), a multifunctional compartment also playing pivotal roles in Ca(2+) storage, redox homeostasis and signalling. From the ER, secretory proteins begin their journey towards their final destinations, the organelles of the exocytic and endocytic compartments, the plasma membrane or the extracellular space. Fidelity of protein-based intracellular communication is guaranteed by quality control (QC) mechanisms located at the ER-Golgi interface, which restrict forward transport to native proteins. QC is used also to time or shape the secretome. Furthermore, professional secretory cells face a problem of quantity, as well as quality of their protein products. This essay summarizes recent findings that identify ERp44 as a key regulator of protein secretion, Ca(2+) signalling and redox regulation.

Abstract
Ca(2+) release through inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (InsP(3)R) can be modulated by numerous factors, including input from other signal transduction cascades. These events shape the spatio-temporal characteristics of the Ca(2+) signal and provide fidelity essential for the appropriate activation of effectors. In this study, we investigate the regulation of Ca(2+) release via InsP(3)R following activation of cyclic nucleotide-dependent kinases in the presence and absence of expression of a binding partner InsP(3)R-associated cGMP kinase substrate (IRAG). cGMP-dependent kinase (PKG) phosphorylation of only the S2+ InsP(3)R-1 subtype resulted in enhanced Ca(2+) release in the absence of IRAG expression. In contrast, IRAG bound to each InsP(3)R subtype, and phosphorylation of IRAG by PKG attenuated Ca(2+) release through all InsP(3)R subtypes. Surprisingly, simply the expression of IRAG attenuated phosphorylation and inhibited the enhanced Ca(2+) release through InsP(3)R-1 following cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) activation. In contrast, IRAG expression did not influence the PKA-enhanced activity of the InsP(3)R-2. Phosphorylation of IRAG resulted in reduced Ca(2+) release through all InsP(3)R subtypes during concurrent activation of PKA and PKG, indicating that IRAG modulation is dominant under these conditions. These studies yield mechanistic insight into how cells with various complements of proteins integrate and prioritize signals from ubiquitous signaling pathways.

Abstract
Communication between the SR (sarcoplasmic reticulum, SR) and mitochondria is important for cell survival and apoptosis. The SR supplies Ca2+ directly to mitochondria via inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) at close contacts between the two organelles referred to as mitochondrion-associated ER membrane (MAM). Although it has been demonstrated that CaR (calcium sensing receptor) activation is involved in intracellular calcium overload during hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/Re), the role of CaR activation in the cardiomyocyte apoptotic pathway remains unclear. We postulated that CaR activation plays a role in the regulation of SR-mitochondrial inter-organelle Ca2+ signaling, causing apoptosis during H/Re. To investigate the above hypothesis, cultured cardiomyocytes were subjected to H/Re. We examined the distribution of IP3Rs in cardiomyocytes via immunofluorescence and Western blotting and found that type 3 IP3Rs were located in the SR. [Ca2+]i, [Ca2+]m and [Ca2+]SR were determined using Fluo-4, x-rhod-1 and Fluo 5N, respectively, and the mitochondrial membrane potential was detected with JC-1 during reoxygenation using laser confocal microscopy. We found that activation of CaR reduced [Ca2+]SR, increased [Ca2+]i and [Ca2+]m and decreased the mitochondrial membrane potential during reoxygenation. We found that the activation of CaR caused the cleavage of BAP31, thus generating the pro-apoptotic p20 fragment, which induced the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria and the translocation of bak/bax to mitochondria. Taken together, these results reveal that CaR activation causes Ca2+ release from the SR into the mitochondria through IP3Rs and induces cardiomyocyte apoptosis during hypoxia/reoxygenation.

Abstract
The localized control of second messenger levels sculpts dynamic and persistent changes in cell physiology and structure. Inositol trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P(3)] 3-kinases (ITPKs) phosphorylate the intracellular second messenger Ins(1,4,5)P(3). These enzymes terminate the signal to release Ca(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum and produce the messenger inositol tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P(4)]. Independent of their enzymatic activity, ITPKs regulate the microstructure of the actin cytoskeleton. The immune phenotypes of ITPK knockout mice raise new questions about how ITPKs control inositol phosphate lifetimes within spatial and temporal domains during lymphocyte maturation. The intense concentration of ITPK on actin inside the dendritic spines of pyramidal neurons suggests a role in signal integration and structural plasticity in the dendrite, and mice lacking neuronal ITPK exhibit memory deficits. Thus, the molecular and anatomical features of ITPKs allow them to regulate the spatiotemporal properties of intracellular signals, leading to the formation of persistent molecular memories.

Abstract
IP3Rs (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors) are the intracellular channels that mediate release of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum in response to the many stimuli that evoke Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation. We characterized and purified type 1 IP3R heterologously expressed in Sf9 insect cells, and used the purified IP3R1 to determine its three-dimensional structure by electron microscopy and single-particle analysis. Recombinant IP3R1 has 4-fold symmetry with overall dimensions of approx. 19.5 nm x 19.5 nm x 17.5 nm. It comprises a small domain, which is likely to include the pore, linked by slender bridges to a large cytoplasmic domain with four petal-like regions. Our structures of recombinant IP3R1 and native cerebellar IP3R have similar appearances and dimensions. The only notable difference is the absence of a central stigma-like domain from the cytoplasmic region of recombinant IP3R1. The first structure of a recombinant IP3R is an important step towards developing three-dimensional structures of IP3R that better contribute to our understanding of the structural basis of IP3R activation.

Abstract
Great insight has been gained into the structure and function of the inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate receptor (InsP(3)R) by studies employing mutagenesis of the cDNA encoding the receptor. Notably, early studies using this approach defined the key constituents required for InsP(3) binding in the N-terminus and the membrane spanning regions in the C-terminal domain responsible for channel formation, targeting and function. In this article we evaluate recent studies which have used a similar approach to investigate key residues underlying the in vivo modulation by select regulatory factors. In addition, we review studies defining the structural requirements in the channel domain which comprise the conduction pathway and are suggested to be involved in the gating of the channel.

Abstract
The structural precursor polyprotein, Gag, encoded by all retroviruses, including the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), is necessary and sufficient for the assembly and release of particles that morphologically resemble immature virus particles. Previous studies have shown that the addition of Ca(2+) to cells expressing Gag enhances virus particle production. However, no specific cellular factor has been implicated as mediator of Ca(2+) provision. The inositol (1,4,5)-triphosphate receptor (IP3R) gates intracellular Ca(2+) stores. Following activation by binding of its ligand, IP3, it releases Ca(2+) from the stores. We demonstrate here that IP3R function is required for efficient release of HIV-1 virus particles. Depletion of IP3R by small interfering RNA, sequestration of its activating ligand by expression of a mutated fragment of IP3R that binds IP3 with very high affinity, or blocking formation of the ligand by inhibiting phospholipase C-mediated hydrolysis of the precursor, phosphatidylinositol-4,5-biphosphate, inhibited Gag particle release. These disruptions, as well as interference with ligand-receptor interaction using antibody targeted to the ligand-binding site on IP3R, blocked plasma membrane accumulation of Gag. These findings identify IP3R as a new determinant in HIV-1 trafficking during Gag assembly and introduce IP3R-regulated Ca(2+) signaling as a potential novel cofactor in viral particle release.

Abstract
Calcium is a ubiquitous second messenger that mediates vital physiological responses such as fertilization, secretion, gene expression, or apoptosis. Given this variety of processes mediated by Ca(2+), these signals are highly organized both in time and space to ensure reliability and specificity. This review deals with the spatiotemporal organization of the Ca(2+) signaling pathway in electrically nonexcitable cells in which InsP(3) receptors are by far the most important Ca(2+) channels. We focus on the aspects of this highly regulated dynamical system for which an interplay between experiments and modeling is particularly fruitful. In particular, the importance of the relative densities of the different InsP(3) receptor subtypes will be discussed on the basis of a modeling approach linking the steady-state behaviors of these channels in electrophysiological experiments with their behavior in a cellular environment. Also, the interplay between InsP(3) metabolism and Ca(2+) oscillations will be considered. Finally, we discuss the relationships between stochastic openings of the Ca(2+) releasing channels at the microscopic level and the coordinated, regular behavior observed at the whole cell level on the basis of a combined experimental and modeling approach.

Abstract
Research on the actions of ethanol at the GABAergic synapse has traditionally focused on postsynaptic mechanisms, but recent data demonstrate that ethanol also increases both evoked and spontaneous GABA release in many brain regions. Using whole-cell voltage-clamp recordings, we previously showed that ethanol increases spontaneous GABA release at the rat interneuron-Purkinje cell synapse. This presynaptic ethanol effect is dependent on calcium release from internal stores, possibly through activation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP(3)Rs). After confirming that ethanol targets vesicular GABA release, in the present study we used electron microscopic immunohistochemistry to demonstrate that IP(3)Rs are located in presynaptic terminals of cerebellar interneurons. Activation of IP(3)Rs requires binding of IP(3), generated through activation of phospholipase C (PLC). We find that the PLC antagonist edelfosine prevents ethanol from increasing spontaneous GABA release. Diacylglycerol generated by PLC and calcium released by activation of the IP(3)R activate protein kinase C (PKC). Ethanol-enhanced GABA release was blocked by two PKC antagonists, chelerythrine and calphostin C. When a membrane impermeable PKC antagonist, PKC (19-36), was delivered intracellularly to the postsynaptic neuron, ethanol continued to increase spontaneous GABA release. Overall, these results suggest that activation of the PLC/IP(3)R/PKC pathway is necessary for ethanol to increase spontaneous GABA release from presynaptic terminals onto Purkinje cells.

Abstract
Homeostatic control of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) both as the site for protein handling (synthesis, folding, trafficking, disaggregation and degradation) and as a Ca2+ store is of crucial importance for correct functioning of the cell. Disturbance of the homeostatic control mechanisms leads to a vast array of severe pathologies. The Ca2+ content of the ER is a dynamic equilibrium between active uptake via Ca2+ pumps and Ca2+ release by a number of highly regulated Ca2+-release channels. Regulation of the Ca2+-release channels is very complex and several mechanisms are still poorly understood or controversial. There is increasing evidence that a number of unrelated proteins, either by themselves or in association with other Ca2+ channels, can provide additional Ca2+-leak pathways. The ER is a dynamic organelle and changes in its size and components have been described, either as a result of (de)differentiation processes affecting the secretory capacity of cells, or as a result of adaptation mechanisms to diverse stress conditions such as the unfolded protein response and autophagy. In this review we want to give an overview of the current knowledge of the (short-term) regulatory mechanisms that affect Ca2+-release and Ca2+-leak pathways and of the (long-term) adaptations in ER size and capacity. Understanding of the consequences of these mechanisms for cellular Ca2+ signaling could provide a huge therapeutic potential.

Abstract
The Na/K-ATPase was discovered as an energy transducing ion pump. A major difference between the Na/K-ATPase and other P-type ATPases is its ability to bind a group of chemicals called cardiotonic steroids (CTS). The plant-derived CTS such as digoxin are valuable drugs for the management of cardiac diseases, whereas ouabain and marinobufagenin (MBG) have been identified as a new class of endogenous hormones. Recent studies have demonstrated that the endogenous CTS are important regulators of renal Na(+) excretion and blood pressure. The Na/K-ATPase is not only an ion pump, but also an important receptor that can transduce the ligand-like effect of CTS on intracellular protein kinases and Ca(2+) signaling. Significantly, these CTS-provoked signaling events are capable of reducing the surface expression of apical NHE3 (Na/H exchanger isoform 3) and basolateral Na/K-ATPase in renal proximal tubular cells. These findings suggest that endogenous CTS may play an important role in regulation of tubular Na(+) excretion under physiological conditions; conversely, a defect at either the receptor level (Na/K-ATPase) or receptor-effector coupling would reduce the ability of renal proximal tubular cells to excrete Na(+), thus culminating/resulting in salt-sensitive hypertension.

The versatility of Ca(2+) as an intracellular messenger derives largely from the spatial organization of cytosolic Ca(2+) signals, most of which are generated by regulated openings of Ca(2+)-permeable channels. Most Ca(2+) channels are expressed in the plasma membrane (PM). Others, including the almost ubiquitous inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP(3)R) and their relatives, the ryanodine receptors (RyR), are predominantly expressed in membranes of the sarcoplasmic or endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Targeting of these channels to appropriate destinations underpins their ability to generate spatially organized Ca(2+) signals. All Ca(2+) channels begin life in the cytosol, and the vast majority are then functionally assembled in the ER, where they may either remain or be dispatched to other membranes. Here, by means of selective examples, we review two issues related to this trafficking of Ca(2+) channels via the ER. How do cells avoid wayward activity of Ca(2+) channels in transit as they pass from the ER via other membranes to their final destination? How and why do some cells express small numbers of the archetypal intracellular Ca(2+) channels, IP(3)R and RyR, in the PM?

Abstract
Spontaneous Ca(2+) events have been observed in diverse stem cell lines, including carcinoma and mesenchymal stem cells. Interestingly, during cell cycle progression, cells exhibit Ca(2+) transients during the G(1) to S transition, suggesting that these oscillations may play a role in cell cycle progression. We aimed to study the influence of promoting and blocking calcium oscillations in cell proliferation and cell cycle progression, both in neural progenitor and undifferentiated cells. We also identified which calcium stores are required for maintaining these oscillations. Both in neural progenitor and undifferentiated cells calcium oscillations were restricted to the G1/S transition, suggesting a role for these events in progression of the cell cycle. Maintenance of the oscillations required calcium influx only through inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptors (IP(3)Rs) and L-type channels in undifferentiated cells, while neural progenitor cells also utilized ryanodine-sensitive stores. Interestingly, promoting calcium oscillations through IP(3)R agonists increased both proliferation and levels of cell cycle regulators such as cyclins A and E. Conversely, blocking calcium events with IP(3)R antagonists had the opposite effect in both undifferentiated and neural progenitor cells. This suggests that calcium events created by IP(3)Rs may be involved in cell cycle progression and proliferation, possibly due to regulation of cyclin levels, both in undifferentiated cells and in neural progenitor cells.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) is implicated in the regulation of signaling pathways leading to changes in vascular smooth muscle function. Contractile effects produced by H(2)O(2) are due to the phosphorylation of myosin light chain kinase triggered by increases in intracellular calcium (Ca(2+)) from intracellular stores or influx of extracellular Ca(2+). One mechanism for mobilizing such stores involves the phosphoinositide pathway. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) mobilizes intracellular Ca(2+) by binding to a family of receptors (IP(3)Rs) on the endoplasmic-sarcoplasmic reticulum that act as ligand-gated Ca(2+) channels. IP(3)Rs can be rapidly ubiquitinated and degraded by the proteasome, causing a decrease in cellular IP(3)R content. In this study we show that IP(3)R(1) and IP(3)R(3) are down-regulated when vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) are stimulated by H(2)O(2), through an increase in proteasome activity. Moreover, we demonstrate that the decrease in IP(3)R by H(2)O(2) is accompanied by a reduction in calcium efflux induced by IP(3) in VSMC. Also, we observed that angiotensin II (ANGII) induces a decrease in IP(3)R by activation of NADPH oxidase and that preincubation with H(2)O(2) decreases ANGII-mediated calcium efflux and planar cell surface area in VSMC. The decreased IP(3) receptor content observed in cells was also found in aortic rings, which exhibited a decreased ANGII-dependent contraction after treatment with H(2)O(2). Altogether, these results suggest that H(2)O(2) mediates IP(3)R down-regulation via proteasome activity.

Abstract
Inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) are intracellular Ca2+ channels that are regulated by IP3 and Ca2+ and are modulated by many additional signals. These properties allow them to initiate and, via Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release, regeneratively propagate Ca2+ signals evoked by receptors that stimulate formation of IP3. The ubiquitous expression of IP3R highlights their importance, but it also presents problems when attempting to resolve the behavior of defined IP3R. DT40 cells are a pre-B-lymphocyte cell line in which high rates of homologous recombination afford unrivalled opportunities to disrupt endogenous genes. DT40-knockout cells with both alleles of each of the three IP3R genes disrupted provide the only null-background for analysis of homogenous recombinant IP3R. We review the properties of DT40 cells and consider three areas where they have contributed to understanding IP3R behavior. Patch-clamp recording from the nuclear envelope and Ca2+ release from intracellular stores loaded with a low-affinity Ca2+ indicator address the mechanisms leading to activation of IP(3)R. We show that IP3 causes intracellular IP3R to cluster and re-tune their responses to IP3 and Ca2+, better equipping them to mediate regenerative Ca2+ signals. Finally, we show that DT40 cells reliably count very few IP3R into the plasma membrane, where they mediate about half the Ca2+ entry evoked by the B-cell antigen receptor.

Abstract
Normal and malignant hematopoiesis are regulated by intercellular communication in the hematopoietic microenvironments, and both soluble mediators as well as direct cell-cell contact play important functional roles. Gap junctions are complex membrane structures that transfer molecules between neighboring cells and thereby alter intracellular signaling and metabolism. The gap junction building blocks, the connexins, are also involved in gap junction-independent intercellular communication by forming hemichannels that transfer substances between the intra- and extracellular spaces. Connexins are furthermore involved in cell regulation as single molecules by modulating intracellular pathways and possibly gene transcription. The role of connexins in leukemogenesis and leukemic cell functions are not well characterized. In this review, we describe the known effects of gap junctions and connexins in acute myelogenous leukemia and the diverse potential of connexins in acute myelogenous leukemia chemosensitivity, intracellular signaling and cell death regulation.

Abstract
Calcium signals mediate diverse cellular functions in immunological cells. Early studies with mast cells, then a preeminent model for studying Ca2+-dependent exocytosis, revealed several basic features of calcium signaling in non-electrically excitable cells. Subsequent studies in these and other cells further defined the basic processes such as inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-mediated release of Ca2+ from Ca2+ stores in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER); coupling of ER store depletion to influx of external Ca2+ through a calcium-release activated calcium (CRAC) channel now attributed to the interaction of the ER Ca2+ sensor, stromal interacting molecule-1 (STIM1), with a unique Ca2+-channel protein, Orai1/CRACM1, and subsequent uptake of excess Ca2+ into ER and mitochondria through ATP-dependent Ca2+ pumps. In addition, transient receptor potential channels and ion exchangers also contribute to the generation of calcium signals that may be global or have dynamic (e.g., waves and oscillations) and spatial resolution for specific functional readouts. This review discusses past and recent developments in this field of research, the pharmacologic agents that have assisted in these endeavors, and the mast cell as an exemplar for sorting out how calcium signals may regulate multiple outputs in a single cell.

Abstract
The calorigenic-thermogenic activity of thyroid hormone (T3) has long been ascribed to uncoupling of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. However, the mode of action of T3 in promoting mitochondrial proton leak is still unresolved. Mitochondrial uncoupling by T3 is reported here to be transduced in vivo in rats and in cultured Jurkat cells by gating of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (PTP). T3-induced PTP gating is shown here to be abrogated in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) receptor 1 (IP(3)R1)(-/-) cells, indicating that the endoplasmic reticulum IP(3)R1 may serve as upstream target for the mitochondrial activity of T3. IP(3)R1 gating by T3 is due to its increased expression and truncation into channel-only peptides, resulting in IP(3)-independent Ca(2+) efflux. Increased cytosolic Ca(2+) results in activation of protein phosphatase 2B, dephosphorylation and depletion of mitochondrial Bcl2 (S70), and increase in mitochondrial free Bax leading to low-conductance PTP gating. The T3 transduction pathway integrates genomic and nongenomic activities of T3 in regulating mitochondrial energetics and may offer novel targets for thyromimetics designed to modulate energy expenditure.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3R) are intracellular Ca2+ channels that are almost ubiquitously expressed in animal cells. The spatiotemporal complexity of the Ca2+ signals evoked by IP3R underlies their versatility in cellular signaling. Here we review the mechanisms that contribute to the subcellular targeting of IP3R and the dynamic interplay between IP3R that underpin their ability to generate complex intracellular Ca2+ signals.

Abstract
In pituitary gonadotropes, estrogens have biphasic actions to cause an initial negative feedback followed by a positive feedback on LH secretion, but the mechanisms involved are not clearly understood. To investigate the feedback effects of estrogen, we used mixed ovine pituitary cell cultures (48-72 h), which were treated with 10(-9) M estradiol-17beta (E(2)) or vehicle followed by a pulse of 10(-9) M GnRH. Medium was collected for LH assay and cells extracted to determine activation of MAPK (phosphorylated ERK-1/2). E(2) treatment for 5 min reduced GnRH-induced LH release and caused phosphorylation of ERK-1/2. E(2) alone also caused phosphorylation of ERK-1/2, similar to the response evoked by GnRH alone. GnRH increased cytoplasmic intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) and this was abolished by 2 min pretreatment with E(2) or E-bovine serum albumen conjugate. Blockade of Ca(2+) channels with nifedipine had no effect on the initial peak of GnRH-induced increase in [Ca(2+)](i) but reduced its duration by 27 +/- 6%. Depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores with thapsigargin prevented GnRH-induced increase in [Ca(2+)](i). Thapsigargin (10(-7) M) or nifedipine (10(-5) M) pretreatment (15 min) of cells lowered GnRH-induced LH secretion by 30 +/- 6 and 50% +/- 4%, respectively. We conclude that inhibition of the GnRH-induced increase in [Ca(2+)](i) in gonadotropes by E(2) is a likely mechanism for the negative feedback effect of E(2) on LH secretion involving a rapid nongenomic effect of E(2). Activation of the MAPK pathway by E(2) may be the mechanism for the time-delayed positive feedback effect on LH secretion at the level of the gonadotrope.

Abstract
TRIC channels function as monovalent cation-specific channels that mediate counter ion movements coupled with ryanodine receptor-mediated Ca(2+) release from intracellular stores in muscle cells. Mammalian tissues differentially contain two TRIC channel subtypes: TRIC-A is abundantly expressed in excitable cells, whereas TRIC-B is ubiquitously expressed throughout tissues. Here, we report the physiological role of TRIC-B channels in mouse perinatal development. TRIC-B-knockout neonates were cyanotic owing to respiratory failure and died shortly after birth. In the mutant neonates, the deflated lungs exhibited severe histological defects, and alveolar type II epithelial cells displayed ultrastructural abnormalities. The metabolic conversion of glycogen into phospholipids was severely interrupted in the mutant type II cells, and surfactant phospholipids secreted into the alveolar space were insufficient in the mutant neonates. Moreover, the mutant type II cells were compromised for Ca(2+) release mediated by inositol-trisphosphate receptors, despite Ca(2+) overloading in intracellular stores. Our results indicate that TRIC-B channels take an active part in Ca(2+) signalling to establish specialised functions in type II cells and are thus essential for perinatal lung maturation.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+) signaling by the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 (IL-1) is dependent on focal adhesions, which contain diverse structural and signaling proteins including protein phosphatases. We examined here the role of protein-tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) alpha in regulating IL-1-induced Ca2+ signaling in fibroblasts. IL-1 promoted recruitment of PTPalpha to focal adhesions and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) fractions, as well as tyrosine phosphorylation of the ER Ca2+ release channel IP3R. In response to IL-1, catalytically active PTPalpha was required for Ca2+ release from the ER, Src-dependent phosphorylation of IP3R1 and accumulation of IP3R1 in focal adhesions. In pulldown assays and immunoprecipitations PTPalpha was required for the association of PTPalpha with IP3R1 and c-Src, and this association was increased by IL-1. Collectively, these data indicate that PTPalpha acts as an adaptor to mediate functional links between focal adhesions and the ER that enable IL-1-induced Ca2+ signaling.

Abstract
Fertilization induces a species-specific Ca(2+) transient with specialized spatial and temporal dynamics, which are essential to temporally encode egg activation events such as the block to polyspermy and resumption of meiosis. Eggs acquire the competence to produce the fertilization-specific Ca(2+) transient during oocyte maturation, which encompasses dramatic potentiation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3))-dependent Ca(2+) release. Here we show that increased IP(3) receptor (IP(3)R) sensitivity is initiated at the germinal vesicle breakdown stage of maturation, which correlates with maturation promoting factor (MPF) activation. Extensive phosphopeptide mapping of the IP(3)R resulted in approximately 70% coverage and identified three residues, Thr-931, Thr-1136, and Ser-114, which are specifically phosphorylated during maturation. Phospho-specific antibody analyses show that Thr-1136 phosphorylation requires MPF activation. Activation of either MPF or the mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade independently, functionally sensitizes IP(3)-dependent Ca(2+) release. Collectively, these data argue that the kinase cascades driving meiotic maturation potentiates IP(3)-dependent Ca(2+) release, possibly trough direct phosphorylation of the IP(3)R.

Abstract
We describe a consanguineous Iraqi family in which affected siblings had mild mental retardation and congenital ataxia characterized by quadrupedal gait. Genome-wide linkage analysis identified a 5.8 Mb interval on chromosome 8q with shared homozygosity among the affected persons. Sequencing of genes contained in the interval revealed a homozygous mutation, S100P, in carbonic anhydrase related protein 8 (CA8), which is highly expressed in cerebellar Purkinje cells and influences inositol triphosphate (ITP) binding to its receptor ITPR1 on the endoplasmatic reticulum and thereby modulates calcium signaling. We demonstrate that the mutation S100P is associated with proteasome-mediated degradation, and thus presumably represents a null mutation comparable to the Ca8 mutation underlying the previously described waddles mouse, which exhibits ataxia and appendicular dystonia. CA8 thus represents the third locus that has been associated with quadrupedal gait in humans, in addition to the VLDLR locus and a locus at chromosome 17p. Our findings underline the importance of ITP-mediated signaling in cerebellar function and provide suggestive evidence that congenital ataxia paired with cerebral dysfunction may, together with unknown contextual factors during development, predispose to quadrupedal gait in humans. We identified a homozygous missense mutation (S100P) in the gene encoding carbonic anhydrase VIII in a consanguineous Iraqi family in which affected siblings had mild mental retardation and congenital ataxia characterized by quadrupedal gait. The affected persons walk on their hands and feet with their legs held straight with a “bear-like” gait. Our results show that the mutation S100P induces proteasome-mediated degradation with a severe reduction of the level of CA8 protein. The waddles (wdl) mouse, a spontaneous animal model with ataxia, was previously shown to harbor a 19-bp deletion in Ca8 that leads to an almost complete lack of detectable Ca8 protein, resulting in abnormalities in cerebellar synaptic transmission. Therefore, we speculate that the reduction in CA8 protein concentration associated with the S100P mutation could result in similar pathophysiological effects. With the current report, alterations at three gene loci (CA8, VLDLR, and a yet-to-be discovered gene on chromosome 17p) have been reported to be associated with quadrupedal gait. It is unknown whether quadrupedal gait is related to specific molecular abnormalities or is an adaptive response to ataxia in some circumstances. However, we note that ataxia associated with mutations at all three loci is congenital and also associated with mental retardation, which is not generally a feature of other hereditary ataxias.

Abstract
Hypoxia-induced mitogenic factor (HIMF), also known as "found in inflammatory zone 1" (FIZZ1) or resistin-like molecule-alpha (RELMalpha), is a profound vasoconstrictor of the pulmonary circulation and a strong mitogenic factor in pulmonary vascular smooth muscle. To further understand the mechanism of these contractile and mitogenic responses, we examined the effect of HIMF on intracellular Ca(2+) in human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (SMC). Ca(2+) imaging in fluo 4-loaded human pulmonary artery SMC revealed that recombinant murine HIMF increased intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in a sustained and oscillatory manner. This increase occurred independent of extracellular Ca(2+) influx. Pretreatment of human pulmonary artery SMC with U-73122, a specific inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol-phospholipase C (PLC) completely prevented the HIMF-induced Ca(2+) signal. The [Ca(2+)](i) increase was also abolished by pretreatment with 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB), an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) receptor antagonist. Ryanodine pretreatment did not affect initiation of [Ca(2+)](i) activation or internal release but reduced [Ca(2+)](i) at the plateau phase. Pretreatment with the Galpha(i)-specific inhibitor pertussis toxin and the Galpha(s)-specific inhibitor NF-449 did not block the Ca(2+) signal. Knockdown of Galpha(q/11) expression did not prevent Ca(2+) release, but the pattern of Ca(2+) release changed from the sustained oscillatory transients with prolonged plateau to a series of short [Ca(2+)](i) transients that return to baseline. However, pretreatment with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein completely inhibited the internal Ca(2+) release. These results demonstrate that HIMF can stimulate intracellular Ca(2+) release in human pulmonary artery SMC through the PLC signaling pathway in an IP(3)- and tyrosine phosphorylation-dependent manner and that Galpha(q/11) protein-coupled receptor and ryanodine receptor contribute to the increase of [Ca(2+)](i).

Abstract
The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP(3)R) is a Ca(2+) release channel that plays a pivotal role in regulating intracellular Ca(2+) levels in resting cells. Three isoforms of IP(3)Rs have been identified, and they all possess a large regulatory domain that covers about 60% of the protein. This regulation is accomplished by interaction with small molecules, posttranslational modifications, and mostly protein-protein interactions. In our search for new binding partners of the IP(3)R, we found that 90-kDa heat-shock protein (Hsp90) binds to the IP(3)R. This interaction increased on stimulation of HEK293T6.11 cells with insulin but not with G(q) protein-coupled receptor (G(q)PCR) agonists. Moreover, the Hsp90 inhibitor geldanamycin (GA) disrupted the interaction between Hsp90 and the IP(3)R. Pretreatment of HEK293T6.11 cells with GA greatly increased the intracellular Ca(2+) release induced by a G(q)PCR agonist. Insulin alone did not induce any intracellular Ca(2+) release. However, insulin diminished the intracellular Ca(2+) release induced by a G(q)PCR agonist. Interestingly, GA abolished the inhibitory effect of insulin on G(q)PCR-induced intracellular Ca(2+) release. Furthermore, in our search for a mechanistic explanation to this phenomenon, we found that inhibition of kinases activated downstream of the insulin receptor greatly increased the interaction between Hsp90 and the IP(3)R. Of greater interest, we found that the simultaneous inhibition of mammalian target of rapamycin and the Src kinase almost completely disrupted the interaction between Hsp90 and the IP(3)R. These results demonstrate that insulin promotes the interaction of Hsp90 with the IP(3)R to dampen its Ca(2+) release activity by a complex mechanism involving mammalian target of rapamycin and the Src kinase.
