Abstract
Platelet-derived microvesicles (PMVs) represent a significant proportion of microvesicles in circulation and have been linked to various pathophysiological complications. Recent research suggests that PMVs carry significant amounts of cargo that can affect cellular functions by influencing calcium oscillations in target cells. As calcium is involved in multiple cellular processes, including hemostasis and thrombosis, this study aimed to investigate the impact of PMVs on platelet calcium mobilization. The study found that PMVs increase platelet intracellular calcium levels via both intracellular storage and extracellular space in a dose-dependent manner. The study highlighted the critical role of the dense tubular system, acidic vacuoles, mitochondrial stores, and store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) in PMV-mediated calcium release in human platelets. Moreover, the study revealed that PMV-induced calcium rise in platelets does not occur via sarcoendoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase, and extracellular calcium addition further increases the calcium level in platelets, demonstrating the involvement of SOCE. These findings provide insights into the platelet stimulation signaling mechanisms and contributes to our understanding of platelet and cell behavior when exposed to PMV-rich environments.

Abstract
Background Skeletal muscle is not only an important tissue involved in exercise and metabolism, but also an important part of livestock and poultry meat products. Its growth and development determines the output and quality of meat to a certain extent, and has an important impact on the economic benefits of animal husbandry. Skeletal muscle development is a complex regulatory network process, and its molecular mechanism needs to be further studied. Method We used a weighted co-expression network (WGCNA) and single gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) to study the RNA-seq data set of bovine tissue differential expression analysis, and the core genes and functional enrichment pathways closely related to muscle tissue development were screened. Finally, the accuracy of the analysis results was verified by tissue expression profile detection and bovine skeletal muscle satellite cell differentiation model in vitro (BSMSCs). Results In this study, Atp2a1, Tmod4, Lmod3, Ryr1 and Mybpc2 were identified as marker genes in muscle tissue, which are mainly involved in glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, AMPK pathway and insulin pathway. The assay results showed that these five genes were highly expressed in muscle tissue and positively correlated with the differentiation of bovine BSMSCs. Conclusions In this study, several muscle tissue characteristic genes were excavated, which may play an important role in muscle development and provide new insights for bovine molecular genetic breeding.

Abstract
In recent decades, medical research has been primarily focused on the inherited aspect of cancers, despite the reality that only 5-10% of tumours discovered are derived from genetic causes. Cancer is a broad term, and therefore it is inaccurate to address it as a purely genetic disease. Understanding cancer cells' behaviour is the first step in countering them. Behind the scenes, there is a complicated network of environmental factors, DNA errors, metabolic shifts, and electrostatic alterations that build over time and lead to the illness's development. This latter aspect has been analyzed in previous studies, but how the different electrical changes integrate and affect each other is rarely examined. Every cell in the human body possesses electrical properties that are essential for proper behaviour both within and outside of the cell itself. It is not yet clear whether these changes correlate with cell mutation in cancer cells, or only with their subsequent development. Either way, these aspects merit further investigation, especially with regards to their causes and consequences. Trying to block changes at various levels of occurrence or assisting in their prevention could be the key to stopping cells from becoming cancerous. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the current knowledge regarding the electrical landscape of cells is much needed. We review four essential electrical characteristics of cells, providing a deep understanding of the electrostatic changes in cancer cells compared to their normal counterparts. In particular, we provide an overview of intracellular and extracellular pH modifications, differences in ionic concentrations in the cytoplasm, transmembrane potential variations, and changes within mitochondria. New therapies targeting or exploiting the electrical properties of cells are developed and tested every year, such as pH-dependent carriers and tumour-treating fields. A brief section regarding the state-of-the-art of these therapies can be found at the end of this review. Finally, we highlight how these alterations integrate and potentially yield indications of cells' malignancy or metastatic index.

INSECT MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 2022; 31:286-296. [PMID: 35038196 DOI: 10.1111/imb.12758] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2021] [Revised: 12/09/2021] [Accepted: 01/03/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
In recent years, increasing numbers of microRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to regulate insect metamorphosis. One thousand, one hundred fifty-four miRNAs have been previously identified from Tribolium castaneum by high-throughput sequencing; however, little is known about which miRNAs can participate in metamorphosis, leaving the role of miRNAs in regulating the underlying mechanism elusive. Here, we report the participation of miR-3017b in the metamorphosis of T. castaneum. Temporal profiles revealed that miR-3017b was highly expressed at the late larval stage, but significantly decreased at the early pupal stage. Overexpression of miR-3017b caused larval to pupal to adult metamorphosis arrested. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and miRNA-mRNA interaction assay illustrated that miR-3017b interacts with the coding sequence of sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) and suppresses its expression. Knockdown of SERCA caused metamorphosis arrested, similar to that observed in miR-3017b overexpression beetles. Further functional mechanism analyses revealed that 20-hydroxyecdysone application downregulates miR-3017b and up-regulates SERCA expression. The expression level of downstream genes in the 20E pathway was disrupted after overexpressing miR-3017 and the knockdown of SERCA. These results provided evidence miR-3017b-SERCA contributes to metamorphosis by regulating the 20E pathway in T. castaneum. It could advance our understanding of the coordination of 20E and miRNA regulation in insect metamorphosis.

Abstract
AIMS In this study, we investigated the vasodilatory effects of trelagliptin (a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor) and its related mechanisms using rabbit aortic rings. MAIN METHODS Arterial tone measurement was performed in rabbit thoracic aortic rings. KEY FINDINGS Trelagliptin induced vasodilation in a dose-dependent manner. Pretreatment with the ATP-sensitive K+ channel inhibitor glibenclamide, large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channel inhibitor paxilline, and inwardly rectifying K+ channel inhibitor Ba2+ did not affect the vasodilatory effect of trelagliptin. However, pretreatment with the voltage-dependent K+ (Kv) channel inhibitors 4-aminopyridine and tetraethylammonium significantly attenuated the vasodilatory effect of trelagliptin, suggesting that the vasodilatory effect of trelagliptin is associated with Kv channel activation. Although pretreatment with Kv1.5 and Kv2.1 subtype inhibitors did not affect the response to trelagliptin, pretreatment with a Kv7.X subtype inhibitor effectively reduced the vasodilatory effect of trelagliptin. Furthermore, sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) pump inhibitors also significantly attenuated the vasodilatory effect of trelagliptin. These effects, however, were not affected by pretreatment with Ca2+ channel inhibitors, adenylyl cyclase/PKA inhibitors, guanylyl cyclase/PKG inhibitors, or removal of the endothelium. SIGNIFICANCE From these results, we concluded that the vasodilatory effect of trelagliptin was associated with the activation of Kv channels (primary the Kv7.X subtype) and SERCA pump regardless of other K+ channels, Ca2+ channels, cAMP/PKA-related or cGMP/PKG-related signaling pathways, and the endothelium. Therefore, caution is required when prescribing trelagliptin to the patients with hypotension and diabetes.

Transcriptomic Response under Heat Stress in Chickens Revealed the Regulation of Genes and Alteration of Metabolism to Maintain Homeostasis. Animals (Basel) 2021; 11:ani11082241. [PMID: 34438700 PMCID: PMC8388523 DOI: 10.3390/ani11082241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2021] [Revised: 07/20/2021] [Accepted: 07/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary With the increased global temperature, the threat from climate change has already affected the livestock industry. Exposure to heat stress is a major factor responsible for impacts on the overall livestock production, which ultimately results in economic losses. With no exception, poultry is among the most vulnerable livestock to environmental stress. Hence, a comprehensive study is required to understand the molecular mechanisms and to improve the breeding program to overcome economic losses. Therefore, we investigated growth related phenotypes and performed transcriptome analysis to understand the heat stress response in chickens. Animal experiments were designed with two groups, which were kept at 21 and 33 °C for 2 weeks as the control and treatment groups. The transcriptome analysis used blood samples from each chicken. In this study, we identified a total of 245 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with important roles in various biological processes, such as cell protection, energy conversion in the mitochondria, and protein quality control. The results indicate that the heat stress environment regulates genes and alter the metabolism to adjust for the heat environment in chickens. These findings could be useful to help understand the heat stress response in poultry. Abstract Chicken is important livestock that serves as a vital food source which remain largely affected by heat stress. Therefore, we performed the transcriptome analysis to help understand the mechanisms of heat stress response in chickens. In the animal experiments, we grouped them into a normal and severe at 21 and 33 °C, with identified physiologic parameters for 2-weeks. Subsequently, RNA-seq analysis was performed to identify DEGs with a false discovery rate < 0.05 and a fold change ≥ 1.5. In the physiological parameters, we observed average daily gain was declined, rectal temperature and respiration rate was increased in severe group. Among total 245 DEGs, 230 and 15 genes were upregulated and downregulated, respectively. In upregulated DEGs, HSPs, MYLK2, and BDKRB1 genes were identified as key genes in heat stress. The KEGG pathway analysis showed involvement in the ATP metabolic process, MAPK signaling pathway and calcium signaling pathway with related protein processing and synthesis. In conclusion, with induced heat stress, such changes in physiologic parameters alter the neuroendocrine system, and we observed that the heat stress environment regulates such Heat shock protein genes to protect the cells and proteins from an altered metabolism. These findings provide a more comprehensive understanding of the heat stress response in poultry.

The anti-diabetic drug alogliptin induces vasorelaxation via activation of Kv channels and SERCA pumps. Eur J Pharmacol 2021; 898:173991.

Abstract
In the present study, we investigated the vasorelaxant effects of alogliptin, an oral antidiabetic drug in the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor class, using phenylephrine (Phe)-induced pre-contracted aortic rings. Alogliptin induced vasorelaxation in a dose-dependent manner. Pre-treatment with the voltage-dependent K+ (Kv) channel inhibitor 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) significantly decreased the vasorelaxant effect of alogliptin, whereas pre-treatment with the inwardly rectifying K+ (Kir) channel inhibitor Ba2+, ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channel inhibitor glibenclamide, and large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BKCa) channel inhibitor paxilline did not alter the effects of alogliptin. Although pre-treatment with the Ca2+ channel inhibitor nifedipine did not affect the vasorelaxant effect of alogliptin, pre-treatment with the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) pump inhibitors thapsigargin and cyclopiazonic acid effectively attenuated the vasorelaxant response of alogliptin. Neither cGMP/protein kinase G (PKG)-related signaling pathway inhibitors (guanylyl cyclase inhibitor ODQ and PKG inhibitor KT 5823) nor cAMP/protein kinase A (PKA)-related signaling pathway inhibitors (adenylyl cyclase inhibitor SQ 22536 and PKA inhibitor KT 5720) reduced the vasorelaxant effect of alogliptin. Similarly, the vasorelaxant effect of alogliptin was not changed by endothelium removal or pre-treatment with the nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor L-NAME or the small- and intermediate-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (SKCa and IKCa) channel inhibitors apamin and TRAM-34. Based on these results, we suggest that alogliptin induced vasorelaxation in rabbit aortic smooth muscle by activating Kv channels and the SERCA pump independent of other K+ channels, cGMP/PKG-related or cAMP/PKA-related signaling pathways, and the endothelium.

Abstract
P-type ATPase inhibitors are among the most successful and widely prescribed therapeutics in modern pharmacology. Clinical transition has been safely achieved for H+/K+ ATPase inhibitors such as omeprazole and Na+/K+-ATPase inhibitors like digoxin. However, this is more challenging for Ca2+-ATPase modulators due to the physiological role of Ca2+ in cardiac dynamics. Over the past two decades, sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) modulators have been studied as potential chemotherapy agents because of their Ca2+-mediated pan-cancer lethal effects. Instead, recent evidence suggests that SERCA inhibition suppresses oncogenic Notch1 signaling emerging as an alternative to γ-secretase modulators that showed limited clinical activity due to severe side effects. In this review, we focus on how SERCA inhibitors alter Notch1 signaling and show that Notch on-target-mediated antileukemia properties of these molecules can be achieved without causing overt Ca2+ cellular overload.

Abstract
This study investigated the vasodilatory effects and acting mechanism of gemigliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor. Tests were conducted in aortic rings pre-contracted with phenylephrine. Gemigliptin induced dose-dependent vasodilation of the aortic smooth muscle. Several pre-treatment groups were used to investigate the mechanism of action. While pre-treatment with paxilline, a large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channel inhibitor, glibenclamide, an ATP-sensitive K+ channel inhibitor, and Ba2+, an inwardly rectifying K+ channel inhibitor, had no impact on the vasodilatory effect of gemigliptin, pre-treatment with 4-aminopyridine, a voltage-dependent K+ (Kv) channel inhibitor, effectively attenuated the vasodilatory action of gemigliptin. In addition, pre-treatment with sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) pump inhibitors thapsigargin and cyclopiazonic acid significantly reduced the vasodilatory effect of gemigliptin. cAMP/PKA-related or cGMP/PKG-related signaling pathway inhibitors, including adenylyl cyclase inhibitor SQ 22536, PKA inhibitor KT 5720, guanylyl cyclase inhibitor ODQ, and PKG inhibitor KT 5823 did not alter the vasodilatory effect of gemigliptin. Similarly, elimination of the endothelium and pre-treatment with a nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor (L-NAME) or small- and intermediate-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels (apamin and TRAM-34, respectively) did not change the gemigliptin effect. These findings suggested that gemigliptin induces vasodilation through the activation of Kv channels and SERCA pumps independent of cAMP/PKA-related or cGMP/PKG-related signaling pathways and the endothelium. Therefore, caution is required when prescribing gemigliptin to the patients with hypotension and diabetes.

Abstract
Heart failure represents the end result of different pathophysiologic processes, which culminate in functional impairment. Regardless of its aetiology, the presentation of heart failure usually involves symptoms of pump failure and congestion, which forms the basis for clinical diagnosis. Pathophysiologic descriptions of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) are being established. Most commonly, HFrEF is centred on a reactive model where a significant initial insult leads to reduced cardiac output, further triggering a cascade of maladaptive processes. Predisposing factors include myocardial injury of any cause, chronically abnormal loading due to hypertension, valvular disease, or tachyarrhythmias. The pathophysiologic processes behind remodelling in heart failure are complex and reflect systemic neurohormonal activation, peripheral vascular effects and localised changes affecting the cardiac substrate. These abnormalities have been the subject of intense research. Much of the translational successes in HFrEF have come from targeting neurohormonal responses to reduced cardiac output, with blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and beta-adrenergic blockade being particularly fruitful. However, mortality and morbidity associated with heart failure remains high. Although systemic neurohormonal blockade slows disease progression, localised ventricular remodelling still adversely affects contractile function. Novel therapy targeted at improving cardiac contractile mechanics in HFrEF hold the promise of alleviating heart failure at its source, yet so far none has found success. Nevertheless, there are increasing calls for a proximal, 'cardiocentric' approach to therapy. In this review, we examine HFrEF therapy aimed at improving cardiac function with a focus on recent trials and emerging targets.

Abstract
The insulin-like growth factor 2 receptor (IGF2R) plays a major role in binding and regulating the circulating and tissue levels of the mitogenic peptide insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2). IGF2/IGF2R interaction influences cell growth, survival, and migration in normal tissue development, and the deregulation of IGF2R expression has been associated with growth-related disease and cancer. IGF2R overexpression has been implicated in heart and muscle disease progression. Recent research findings suggest novel approaches to target IGF2R action. This review highlights recent advances in the understanding of the IGF2R structure and pathways related to muscle homeostasis.

Abstract
This study investigated vildagliptin-induced vasodilation and its related mechanisms using phenylephrine induced precontracted rabbit aortic rings. Vildagliptin induced vasodilation in a concentration-dependent manner. Pretreatment with the large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channel blocker paxilline, ATP-sensitive K+ channel blocker glibenclamide, and inwardly rectifying K+ channel blocker Ba2+ did not affect the vasodilatory effects of vildagliptin. However, application of the voltage-dependent K+ (Kv) channel inhibitor 4-aminopyridine significantly reduced the vasodilatory effects of vildagliptin. In addition, application of either of two sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) inhibitors, thapsigargin or cyclopiazonic acid, effectively inhibited the vasodilatory effects of vildagliptin. These vasodilatory effects were not affected by pretreatment with adenylyl cyclase, protein kinase A (PKA), guanylyl cyclase, or protein kinase G (PKG) inhibitors, or by removal of the endothelium. From these results, we concluded that vildagliptin induced vasodilation via activation of Kv channels and the SERCA pump. However, other K+ channels, PKA/PKG-related signaling cascades associated with vascular dilation, and the endothelium were not involved in vildagliptin-induced vasodilation.

Abstract
Increased ASM mass, primarily due to ASM hyperplasia, has been recognized as a hallmark of airway remodeling in asthma. Increased ASM mass is the major contributor to the airway narrowing, thus worsening the bronchoconstriction in response to stimuli. Inflammatory mediators and growth factors released during inflammation induce increased ASM mass surrounding airway wall via increased ASM proliferation, diminished ASM apoptosis and increased ASM migration. Several major pathways, such as MAPKs, PI3K/AKT, JAK2/STAT3 and Rho kinase, have been reported to regulate these cellular activities in ASM and were reported to be interrelated at certain points. This article aims to provide an overview of the signaling pathways/molecules involved in ASM hyperplasia as well as the mapping of the interplay/crosstalk between these major pathways in mediating ASM hyperplasia. A more comprehensive understanding of the complexity of cellular signaling in ASM cells will enable more specific and safer drug development in the control of asthma.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+) signaling and the modulation of intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) levels play critical roles in several key processes that regulate cellular survival, growth, differentiation, metabolism, and death in normal cells. On the other hand, aberrant Ca2+-signaling and loss of [Ca2+]i homeostasis contributes to tumor initiation proliferation, angiogenesis, and other key processes that support tumor progression in several different cancers. Currently, chemically and functionally distinct drugs are used as chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment and management of cancer among which certain anti-cancer drugs reportedly suppress pro-survival signals and activate pro-apoptotic signaling through modulation of Ca2+-signaling-dependent mechanisms. Most importantly, the modulation of [Ca2+]i levels via the endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondrial axis and corresponding action of channels and pumps within the plasma membrane play an important role in the survival and death of cancer cells. The endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondrial axis is of prime importance when considering Ca2+-signaling-dependent anti-cancer drug targets. This review discusses how calcium signaling is targeted by anti-cancer drugs and highlights the role of calcium signaling in epigenetic modification and the Warburg effect in tumorigenesis.

Nonlinear relationship between ER Ca 2+ depletion versus induction of the unfolded protein response, autophagy inhibition, and cell death. Cell Calcium 2018; 76:48-61. [PMID: 30261424 DOI: 10.1016/j.ceca.2018.09.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2018] [Revised: 08/25/2018] [Accepted: 09/13/2018] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ depletion activates the unfolded protein response (UPR), inhibits bulk autophagy and eventually induces cell death in mammalian cells. However, the extent and duration of ER Ca2+ depletion required is unknown. We instigated a detailed study in two different cell lines, using sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) inhibitors to gradually reduce ER Ca2+ levels in a controlled manner. Remarkably, UPR induction (as assessed by expression analyses of UPR-regulated proteins) and autophagy inhibition (as assessed by analyses of effects on starvation-induced bulk autophagy) required substantially higher drug concentrations than those needed to strongly decrease total ER Ca2+ levels. In fact, even when ER Ca2+ levels were so low that we could hardly detect any release of Ca2+ upon challenge with ER Ca2+ purging agents, UPR was not induced, and starvation-induced bulk autophagy was still fully supported. Moreover, although we observed reduced cell proliferation at this very low level of ER Ca2+, cells could tolerate prolonged periods (days) without succumbing to cell death. Addition of increasing concentrations of extracellular EGTA also gradually depleted the ER of Ca2+, and, as with the SERCA inhibitors, EGTA-induced activation of UPR and cell death required higher EGTA concentrations than those needed to strongly reduce ER Ca2+ levels. We conclude that ER Ca2+ depletion-induced effects on UPR, autophagy and cell death require either an extreme general depletion of ER Ca2+ levels, or Ca2+ depletion in areas of the ER that have a higher resistance to Ca2+ drainage than the bulk of the ER.

Exp Gerontol 2018; 108:247-255. [PMID: 29730333 DOI: 10.1016/j.exger.2018.04.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2017] [Revised: 03/19/2018] [Accepted: 04/29/2018] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and aging are prevalent risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD) and contribute to the etiology of CAD, including dysregulation of Ca2+ handling mechanisms in coronary smooth muscle (CSM). The current study tested the hypothesis that CAD severity and CSM Ca2+ dysregulation were different in MetS-induced CAD compared to aging-induced CAD. METHODS Young (2.5 ± 0.2 years) and old (8.8 ± 1.2 years) Ossabaw miniature swine were fed an atherogenic diet for 11 months to induce MetS and were compared to lean age-matched controls. The metabolic profile was confirmed by body weight, plasma cholesterol and triglycerides, and intravenous glucose tolerance test. CAD was measured with intravascular ultrasound and histology. Intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) was assessed with fura-2 imaging. RESULTS CAD severity was similar between MetS young and lean old swine, with MetS old swine exhibiting the most severe CAD. Compared to CSM [Ca2+]i handling in lean young, the MetS young and lean old swine exhibited increased sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ store release, increased Ca2+ influx through voltage-gated Ca2+ channels, and attenuated sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase activity. MetS old and MetS young swine had similar Ca2+ dysregulation. CONCLUSIONS Ca2+ dysregulation, mainly the SR Ca2+ store, in CSM is more pronounced in lean old swine, which is indicative of mild, proliferative CAD. MetS old and MetS young swine exhibit Ca2+ dysfunction that is typical of late, severe disease. The more advanced, complex plaques in MetS old swine suggest that the "aging milieu" potentiates effects of Ca2+ handling dysfunction in CAD.

Essential role of Na+/Ca2+ exchanger 1 in smoking-induced growth and migration of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Oncotarget 2018; 7:63816-63828.

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.

Abstract
Introduction Voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCC) have been found to be differentially expressed in several different tumor types, but their role in tumor growth, malignant invasion, metastases and impact on clinical outcomes has not been clarified. Materials and Methods From a cohort database of 193 patients with early-stage NSCLC, 163 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens were available for analysis to construct tissue microarrays. Cav3.1 protein expression was detected using fluorescence immunohistochemistry, and quantified using automated image acquisition and analysis. Results Among the cohort of 193 NSCLC patients, adenocarcinoma (53.9%) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) (30.1%) were the most common histologies. There was no difference between SCC and non-SCC subtypes in overall survival (OS) or relapse-free survival (RFS); 74.2 vs 90.1 months (p = 0.543) and 48.8 vs 52.6 months (p = 0.766), respectively. T-type VGCC 3.1 (Cav3.1) overexpression was assessed by tissue microarray immunohistochemistry analysis from 163 available patient samples. Eighteen (11.0%) NSCLC primaries were found to have Cav3.1 overexpression levels, and were significantly associated with SCC histology (p < 0.001), larger tumor size (p < 0.001) and later stage disease at diagnosis (p = 0.019). Median OS was 48.6 vs 106.7 months for Cav3.1 overexpressing and non-overexpressing patients, respectively (p = 0.032). Regression analysis revealed a significantly negative effect for Cav3.1 overexpression on RFS (Hazard ratio [HR] = 2.02, p = 0.048). Conclusions Cav3.1 overexpression is a potential biomarker for poorer patient outcomes. These results bring supportive evidence for calcium channels inducing an aggressive phenotype in NSCLC and potentially may serve as a therapeutic target in overexpressing tumors.

Abstract
The mechanism by which cell shape regulates the function of the cell is one of the most important biological issues, but it remains unclear. Here, we investigated the effect of the regulation of cell shape on proliferation by using a micropatterning approach to confine MC3T3-E1 cells into specific shapes. Our results show that the proliferation rate for rectangle-, triangle-, square- and circle-shaped osteoblasts increased sequentially and was related to the nuclear shape index (NSI) but not the cell shape index (CSI). Interestingly, intracellular calcium transients also displayed different patterns, with the number of Ca2+ peaks increasing with the NSI in shaped cells. Further causal investigation revealed that the gene expression levels of the inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor 1 (IP3R1) and sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase 2 (SERCA2), two major calcium cycling proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), were increased with an increase in NSI as a result of nuclear volume changes. Moreover, the down-regulation of IP3R1 and/or SERCA2 using shRNAs in circle-shaped or control osteoblasts resulted in changes in intracellular calcium transient patterns and cell proliferation rates towards that of smaller-NSI-shaped cells. Our results indicate that changes in cell shape changed nuclear morphology and then the gene expression of IP3R1 and SERCA2, which produced different intracellular calcium transient patterns. The patterns of intracellular calcium transients then determined the proliferation rate of the shaped osteoblasts.

Abstract
Cardioprotective potential of anthocyanin rich red cabbage extract (ARCE) was assessed in H2O2 treated rat neonatal cardiomyoblasts (H9c2 cells) and isoproterenol (ISO) induced rodent model of myocardial infarction. H2O2 treated H9c2 cells recorded cytotoxicity (48–50%) and apoptosis (57.3%), the same were reduced in presence of ARCE (7–10% & 12.3% respectively). Rats pretreated with ARCE for 30 days followed by ISO treatment recorded favourable heart: body weight ratio as compared to ISO treated group. Also, the mRNA levels of enzymatic antioxidants (sod and catalase) and apoptotic genes (bax and bcl-2) in ARCE+ISO treated group were similar to the control group suggesting that ARCE pretreatment prevents ISO induced depletion of enzymatic antioxidants and apoptosis. Histoarchitecture of ventricular tissue of ISO treated group was marked by infracted areas (10%) and derangement of myocardium whereas, ARCE+ISO treated group (4.5%) recorded results comparable to control (0%). ARCE+ISO treated group accounted for upregulation of caveolin-3 and SERCA2a expression as compared to the ISO treated group implying towards ARCE mediated reduction in membrane damage and calcium imbalance. Molecular docking scores and LigPlot analysis of cyanidin-3-glucoside (-8.7 Kcal/mol) and delphinidin-3-glucoside (-8.5 Kcal/mol) showed stable hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions with β1 adrenergic receptor. Overall this study elucidates the mechanism of ARCE mediated prevention of experimentally induced myocardial damage.

Abstract
The flow of intracellular calcium (Ca2+) is critical for the activation and regulation of important biological events that are required in living organisms. As the major Ca2+ repositories inside the cell, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of muscle cells are central in maintaining and amplifying the intracellular Ca2+ signal. The morphology of these organelles, along with the distribution of key calcium-binding proteins (CaBPs), regulatory proteins, pumps, and receptors fundamentally impact the local and global differences in Ca2+ release kinetics. In this review, we will discuss the structural and morphological differences between the ER and SR and how they influence localized Ca2+ release, related diseases, and the need for targeted genetically encoded calcium indicators (GECIs) to study these events.

Abstract
Modulation from contractile to synthetic phenotype of vascular smooth muscle cells is a central process in disorders involving compromised integrity of the vascular wall. Phenotype modulation has been shown to include transition from voltage-dependent toward voltage-independent regulation of the intracellular calcium level, and inhibition of non-voltage dependent calcium influx contributes to maintenance of the contractile phenotype. One possible mediator of calcium-dependent signaling is the FAK-family non-receptor protein kinase Pyk2, which is activated by a number of stimuli in a calcium-dependent manner. We used the Pyk2 inhibitor PF-4594755 and Pyk2 siRNA to investigate the role of Pyk2 in phenotype modulation in rat carotid artery smooth muscle cells and in cultured intact arteries. Pyk2 inhibition promoted the expression of smooth muscle markers at the mRNA and protein levels under stimulation by FBS or PDGF-BB and counteracted phenotype shift in cultured intact carotid arteries and balloon injury ex vivo. During long-term (24-96 hr) treatment with PF-4594755, smooth muscle markers increased before cell proliferation was inhibited, correlating with decreased KLF4 expression and differing from effects of MEK inhibition. The Pyk2 inhibitor reduced Orai1 and preserved SERCA2a expression in carotid artery segments in organ culture, and eliminated the inhibitory effect of PDGF stimulation on L-type calcium channel and large-conductance calcium-activated potassium channel expression in carotid cells. Basal intracellular calcium level, calcium wave activity, and store-operated calcium influx were reduced after Pyk2 inhibition of growth-stimulated cells. Pyk2 inhibition may provide an interesting approach for preserving vascular smooth muscle differentiation under pathophysiological conditions.

Abstract
The Sarco/Endoplasmic Reticulum Ca2+ -ATPases (SERCAs), pump Ca2+ into the endoplasmic reticulum lumen modulating cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations to regulate various cellular processes including cell growth. Previous studies have reported a downregulation of SERCA3 protein expression in gastric and colon cancer cell lines and showed that in vitro cell differentiation increases its expression. However, little is known about the transcriptional mechanisms and transcription factors that regulate SERCA3 expression in epithelial cancer cells. In this work, we demonstrate that SERCA3 mRNA is upregulated up to 45-fold in two epithelial cancer cell lines, KATO-III and Caco-2, induced to differentiate with histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) and by cell confluence, respectively. To evaluate the transcriptional elements responding to the differentiation stimuli, we cloned the human ATP2A3 promoter, generated deletion constructs and transfected them into KATO-III cells. Basal and differentiation responsive DNA elements were located by functional analysis within the first -135 bp of the promoter region. Using site-directed mutagenesis and DNA-protein binding assays we found that Sp1, Sp3, and Klf-4 transcription factors bind to ATP2A3 proximal promoter elements and regulate basal gene expression. We showed that these factors participated in the increase of ATP2A3 expression during cancer cell differentiation. This study provides evidence for the first time that Sp1, Sp3, and Klf-4 transcriptionally modulate the expression of SERCA3 during induction of epithelial cancer cell differentiation. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Effects of human selenoprotein SelK on the adhesion and migration ability of human gastric cancer BGC-823 cells using Matrigel adhesion and transwell migration assays, respectively, were investigated in this study. The Matrigel adhesion ability of BGC-823 cells that overexpressed SelK declined extremely significantly (p < 0.01) compared with that of the cells not expressing the protein. The migration ability of BGC-823 cells that overexpressed SelK also declined extremely significantly (p < 0.01). On the other hand, the Matrigel adhesion ability and migration ability of the cells that overexpressed C-terminally truncated SelK did not decline significantly. The Matrigel adhesion ability and migration ability of human embryonic kidney HEK-293 cells that overexpressed SelK did not show significant change (p > 0.05) with the cells that overexpressed the C-terminally truncated protein. In addition to the effect on Matrigel adhesion and migration, the overexpression of SelK also caused a loss in cell viability (as measured by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H tetrazolium bromide (MTT) colorimetric assay) and induced apoptosis as shown by confocal microscopy and flow cytometry. The cytosolic free Ca2+ level of these cells was significantly increased as detected by flow cytometry. But the overexpression of SelK in HEK-293 cells caused neither significant loss in cell viability nor apoptosis induction. Only the elevation of cytosolic free Ca2+ level in these cells was significant. Taken together, the results suggest that the overexpression of SelK can inhibit human cancer cell Matrigel adhesion and migration and cause both the loss in cell viability and induction of apoptosis. The release of intracellular Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum might be a mechanism whereby the protein exerted its impact. Furthermore, only the full-length protein, but not C-terminally truncated form, was capable of producing such impact. The embryonic cells were not influenced by the elevation of free Ca2+ level in cytosol, probably due to their much greater tolerance to the variation.

Slow sulfide donor GYY4137 differentiates NG108-15 neuronal cells through different intracellular transporters than dbcAMP. Neuroscience 2016; 325:100-10.

Abstract
Cellular differentiation is the process, by which a cell changes from one cell type to another, preferentially to the more specialized one. Calcium fluxes play an important role in this action. Differentiated NG108-15 or PC12 cells serve as models for studying neuronal pathways. NG108-15 cell line is a reliable model of cholinergic neuronal cells. These cells differentiate to a neuronal phenotype due to the dibutyryl cAMP (dbcAMP) treatment. We have shown that a slow sulfide donor - GYY4137 - can also act as a differentiating factor in NG108-15 cell line. Calcium is an unavoidable ion required in NG108-15 cell differentiation by both, dbcAMP and GYY4137, since cultivation in EGTA completely prevented differentiation of these cells. In this work we focused primarily on the role of reticular calcium in the process of NG108-15 cell differentiation. We have found that dbcAMP and also GYY4137 decreased reticular calcium concentration by different mechanisms. GYY4137 caused a rapid decrease in type 2 sarco/endoplasmic calcium ATPase (SERCA2) mRNA and protein, which results in lower calcium levels in the endoplasmic reticulum compared to the control, untreated group. The dbcAMP revealed rapid increase in expression of the type 3 IP3 receptor, which participates in a calcium clearance from the endoplasmic reticulum. These results point to the important role of reticular calcium in a NG108-15 cell differentiation.

Abstract
T-type Ca(2+) channels (Cav3.1, 3.2 and 3.3) strongly influence proliferation of various cell types, including vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and certain cancers. We have recently shown that the gasotransmitter carbon monoxide (CO) inhibits T-type Ca(2+) channels and, in so doing, attenuates proliferation of VSMC. We have also shown that the T-type Ca(2+) channel Cav3.2 is selectively inhibited by hydrogen sulfide (H2S) whilst the other channel isoforms (Cav3.1 and Cav3.3) are unaffected. Here, we explored whether inhibition of Cav3.2 by H2S could account for the anti-proliferative effects of this gasotransmitter. H2S suppressed proliferation in HEK293 cells expressing Cav3.2, as predicted by our previous observations. However, H2S was similarly effective in suppressing proliferation in wild type (non-transfected) HEK293 cells and those expressing the H2S insensitive channel, Cav3.1. Further studies demonstrated that T-type Ca(2+) channels in the smooth muscle cell line A7r5 and in human coronary VSMCs strongly influenced proliferation. In both cell types, H2S caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of proliferation, yet by far the dominant T-type Ca(2+) channel isoform was the H2S-insensitive channel, Cav3.1. Our data indicate that inhibition of T-type Ca(2+) channel-mediated proliferation by H2S is independent of the channels' sensitivity to H2S.

Abstract
The sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ATPases (SERCAs) are the main Ca2+ pumps which decrease the intracellular Ca2+ level by reaccumulating Ca2+ into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The neonatal SERCA1b is the major Ca2+ pump in myotubes and young muscle fibers. To understand its role during skeletal muscle differentiation its synthesis has been interfered with specific shRNA sequence. Stably transfected clones showing significantly decreased SERCA1b expression (cloneC1) were selected for experiments. The expression of the regulatory proteins of skeletal muscle differentiation was examined either by Western-blot at the protein level for MyoD, STIM1, calsequestrin (CSQ), and calcineurin (CaN) or by RT-PCR for myostatin and MCIP1.4. Quantitative analysis revealed significant alterations in CSQ, STIM1, and CaN expression in cloneC1 as compared to control cells. To examine the functional consequences of the decreased expression of SERCA1b, repeated Ca2+-transients were evoked by applications of 120 mM KCl. The significantly higher [Ca2+]i measured at the 20th and 40th seconds after the beginning of KCl application (112±3 and 110±3 nM vs. 150±7 and 135±5 nM, in control and in cloneC1 cells, respectively) indicated a decreased Ca2+-uptake capability which was quantified by extracting the maximal pump rate (454±41 μM/s vs. 144±24 μM/s, in control and in cloneC1 cells). Furthermore, the rate of calcium release from the SR (610±60 vs. 377±64 μM/s) and the amount of calcium released (843±75 μM vs. 576±80 μM) were also significantly suppressed. These changes were also accompanied by a reduced activity of CaN in cells with decreased SERCA1b. In parallel, cloneC1 cells showed inhibited cell proliferation and decreased myotube nuclear numbers. Moreover, while cyclosporineA treatment suppressed the proliferation of parental cultures it had no effect on cloneC1 cells. SERCA1b is thus considered to play an essential role in the regulation of [Ca2+]i and its ab ovo gene silencing results in decreased skeletal muscle differentiation.

Abstract
Cytosolic Ca(2+), closely related to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca(2+), plays a critical role in regulating cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. However, the role of ER lumen proteins in regulating cytosolic Ca(2+) level remains poorly understood. Here, we find that the Cab45S, localizes in the ER lumen, inhibits sarco/ER Ca(2+)-ATPase 2b (SERCA2b) activity through its first EF-hand domain directly binding to the intra-lumenal loop 4 of SERCA2b, and reduces ER Ca(2+). STIM1 activation, induced by the Cab45S-dependent drop in ER Ca(2+), together with the upregulation of the plasma membrane Ca(2+) channel TRPC1 ultimately increases extracellular Ca(2+) influx. Furthermore, increased cytosolic Ca(2+) level elicits Ca(2+)-NFAT signaling and promotes cell proliferation. Consistently, in cervical carcinoma patients, Cab45S is upregulated. Thus, our data reveal that the ability of Cab45S to inhibit SERCA2b activity is crucial for its role as a modulator of cell proliferation and tumor growth.

Abstract
A naturally occurring R9C mutation of phospholamban (PLB) triggers cardiomyopathy and premature death by altering regulation of sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium-ATPase (SERCA). The goal of this study was to investigate the acute physiological consequences of the R9C-PLB mutation on cardiomyocyte calcium kinetics and contractility. We measured the physiological consequences of R9C-PLB mutation on calcium transients and sarcomere shortening in adult cardiomyocytes. In contrast to studies of chronic R9C-PLB expression in transgenic mice, we found that acute expression of R9C-PLB exerts a positively inotropic and lusitropic effect in cardiomyocytes. Importantly, R9C-PLB exhibited blunted sensitivity to frequency potentiation and β-adrenergic stimulation, two major physiological mechanisms for the regulation of cardiac performance. To identify the molecular mechanism of R9C pathology, we quantified the effect of R9C on PLB oligomerization and PLB-SERCA binding. FRET measurements in live cells revealed that R9C-PLB exhibited an increased propensity for oligomerization, and this was further increased by oxidative stress. The R9C also decreased PLB binding to SERCA and altered the structure of the PLB-SERCA regulatory complex. The structural change after oxidative modification of R9C-PLB was similar to that observed after PLB phosphorylation. We conclude that R9C mutation of PLB decreases SERCA inhibition by decreasing the amount of the regulatory complex and altering its conformation. This has an acute inotropic/lusitropic effect but yields negative consequences of impaired frequency potentiation and blunted β-adrenergic responsiveness. We envision a self-reinforcing mechanism beginning with phosphomimetic R9C-PLB oxidation and loss of SERCA inhibition, leading to impaired calcium regulation and heart failure.

Abstract
T-type Ca(2+) channels regulate proliferation in a number of tissue types, including vascular smooth muscle and various cancers. In such tissues, up-regulation of the inducible enzyme heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is often observed, and hypoxia is a key factor in its induction. HO-1 degrades heme to generate carbon monoxide (CO) along with Fe(2+) and biliverdin. Since CO is increasingly recognized as a regulator of ion channels (Peers et al. 2015), we have explored the possibility that it may regulate proliferation via modulation of T-type Ca(2+) channels.Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings revealed that CO (applied as the dissolved gas or via CORM donors) inhibited all 3 isoforms of T-type Ca(2+) channels (Cav3.1-3.3) when expressed in HEK293 cells with similar IC(50) values, and induction of HO-1 expression also suppressed T-type currents (Boycott et al. 2013). CO/HO-1 induction also suppressed the elevated basal [Ca(2+) ](i) in cells expressing these channels and reduced their proliferative rate to levels seen in non-transfected control cells (Duckles et al. 2015).Proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (both A7r5 and human saphenous vein cells) was also suppressed either by T-type Ca(2+) channel inhibitors (mibefradil and NNC 55-0396), HO-1 induction or application of CO. Effects of these blockers and CO were non additive. Although L-type Ca(2+) channels were also sensitive to CO (Scragg et al. 2008), they did not influence proliferation. Our data suggest that HO-1 acts to control proliferation via CO modulation of T-type Ca(2+) channels.

Abstract
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive loss of upper and lower motor neurons. Although the etiology remains unclear, disturbances in calcium homoeostasis and protein folding are essential features of neurodegeneration in this disorder. Here, we review recent research findings on the interaction between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria, and its effect on calcium signaling and oxidative stress. We further provide insights into studies, providing evidence that structures of the ER mitochondria calcium cycle serve as a promising targets for therapeutic approaches for treatment of ALS.

Abstract
Induction of the antioxidant enzyme heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) affords cellular protection and suppresses proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) associated with a variety of pathological cardiovascular conditions including myocardial infarction and vascular injury. However, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Over-expression of Cav3.2 T-type Ca2+ channels in HEK293 cells raised basal [Ca2+]i and increased proliferation as compared with non-transfected cells. Proliferation and [Ca2+]i levels were reduced to levels seen in non-transfected cells either by induction of HO-1 or exposure of cells to the HO-1 product, carbon monoxide (CO) (applied as the CO releasing molecule, CORM-3). In the aortic VSMC line A7r5, proliferation was also inhibited by induction of HO-1 or by exposure of cells to CO, and patch-clamp recordings indicated that CO inhibited T-type (as well as L-type) Ca2+ currents in these cells. Finally, in human saphenous vein smooth muscle cells, proliferation was reduced by T-type channel inhibition or by HO-1 induction or CO exposure. The effects of T-type channel blockade and HO-1 induction were non-additive. Collectively, these data indicate that HO-1 regulates proliferation via CO-mediated inhibition of T-type Ca2+ channels. This signalling pathway provides a novel means by which proliferation of VSMCs (and other cells) may be regulated therapeutically.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study was to explore the mechanisms underlying the effects of globular adiponectin (gAd) on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. METHODS An in vivo myocardial I/R model and an in vitro neonatal rat cardiomyocyte hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) model simulating I/R injury in vivo were adopted to investigate whether and how the cardioprotective effects of gAd are mediated by the inhibition of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. RESULTS gAd (1 μg/g, intravenously) attenuated the myocardial infarct size, myocardial enzyme activity, and apoptosis in rats with I/R, and similar protection was observed in primary cultures of neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. The protective effects of gAd were associated with the suppression of ER stress, as evidenced by reversing the upregulation of 78-kDa glucose-regulated protein, C/EBP homologous protein, and caspase-12 that were induced by H/R and thapsigargin. In addition, gAd conferred resistance to ER stress and cardiomyocyte injury by modulating ER Ca²⁺-ATPase (SERCA) activity. Moreover, gAd further increased H/R-enhanced Akt phosphorylation. The protective effects of gAd on ER stress and SERCA activity were abolished by preincubation of rat neonatal cardiomyocytes with the PI3K inhibitor LY294002. Consistent with this finding, I/R-induced ER stress and SERCA dysfunction were also significantly ameliorated by gAd. These effects involved PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS The protective effects of gAd during I/R are mediated, at least in part, by modulating SERCA activity and consequently suppressing ER stress via the activation of PI3K/Akt signaling.

Borowiec AS, Bidaux G, Tacine R, Dubar P, Pigat N, Delcourt P, Mignen O, Capiod T. Are Orai1 and Orai3 channels more important than calcium influx for cell proliferation? BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2013; 1843:464-72. [PMID: 24321771 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamcr.2013.11.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2013] [Revised: 11/09/2013] [Accepted: 11/27/2013] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Transformed and tumoral cells share the characteristic of being able to proliferate even when external calcium concentration is very low. We have investigated whether Human Embryonic Kidney 293 cells, human hepatoma cell Huh-7 and HeLa cells were able to proliferate when kept 72h in complete culture medium without external calcium. Our data showed that cell proliferation rate was similar over a range of external calcium concentration (2μM to 1.8mM). Incubation in the absence of external calcium for 72h had no significant effect on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca(2+) contents but resulted in a significant decrease in cytosolic free calcium concentration in all 3 cell types. Cell proliferation rates were dependent on Orai1 and Orai3 expression levels in HEK293 and HeLa cells. Silencing Orai1 or Orai3 resulted in a 50% reduction in cell proliferation rate. Flow cytometry analysis showed that Orai3 induced a small but significant increase in cell number in G2/M phase. RO-3306, a cdk-1 inhibitor, induced a 90% arrest in G2/M reversible in less than 15min. Our data showed that progression through G2/M phase after release from RO-3306-induced cell cycle arrest was slower in both Orai1 and Orai3 knock-downs. Overexpressing Orai1, Orai3 and the dominant negative non-permeant mutants E106Q-Orai1 and E81Q-Orai3 induced a 50% increase in cell proliferation rate in HEK293 cells. Our data clearly demonstrated that Orai1 and Orai3 proteins are more important than calcium influx to control cell proliferation in some cell lines and that this process is probably independent of ICRAC and Iarc.

Abstract
Despite the great progress in cardiovascular health and clinical care along with marked decline in morbidity and mortality, cardiovascular diseases remain the leading causes of death and disability in the developed world. New therapeutic approaches, targeting not only systematic but also causal dysfunction, are ultimately needed to provide a valuable alternative for treatment of complex cardiovascular diseases. In heart failure, there are currently a number of trials that have been either completed or are ongoing targeting the sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase pump (SERCA2a) gene transfer in the context of heart failure. Recently, a phase 2 trial was completed, demonstrating safety and suggested benefit of adeno-associated virus type 1/SERCA2a gene transfer in advanced heart failure, supporting larger confirmatory trials. The experimental and clinical data suggest that, when administrated through perfusion, virus vector carrying SERCA2a can also transduce vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells (EC and SMC) thereby improving the clinical benefit of gene therapy. Indeed, recent advances in understanding the molecular basis of vascular dysfunction point towards a reduction of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ uptake and an impairment of Ca2+ cycling in vascular EC and SMC from patients and preclinical models with cardiac diseases or with cardiovascular risk factors such as diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, coronary artery diseases, as well as other conditions such as pulmonary hypertension. In recent years, several studies have established that SERCA2a gene-based therapy could be an efficient option to treat vascular dysfunction. This review focuses on the recent finding showing the beneficial effects of SERCA2a gene transfer in vascular EC and SMC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several groups have employed genomic data from subchronic chemical toxicity studies in rodents (90 days) to derive gene-centric predictors of chronic toxicity and carcinogenicity. Genes are annotated to belong to biological processes or molecular pathways that are mechanistically well understood and are described in public databases. OBJECTIVES To develop a molecular pathway-based prediction model of long term hepatocarcinogenicity using 90-day gene expression data and to evaluate the performance of this model with respect to both intra-species, dose-dependent and cross-species predictions. METHODS Genome-wide hepatic mRNA expression was retrospectively measured in B6C3F1 mice following subchronic exposure to twenty-six (26) chemicals (10 were positive, 2 equivocal and 14 negative for liver tumors) previously studied by the US National Toxicology Program. Using these data, a pathway-based predictor model for long-term liver cancer risk was derived using random forests. The prediction model was independently validated on test sets associated with liver cancer risk obtained from mice, rats and humans. RESULTS Using 5-fold cross validation, the developed prediction model had reasonable predictive performance with the area under receiver-operator curve (AUC) equal to 0.66. The developed prediction model was then used to extrapolate the results to data associated with rat and human liver cancer. The extrapolated model worked well for both extrapolated species (AUC value of 0.74 for rats and 0.91 for humans). The prediction models implied a balanced interplay between all pathway responses leading to carcinogenicity predictions. CONCLUSIONS Pathway-based prediction models estimated from sub-chronic data hold promise for predicting long-term carcinogenicity and also for its ability to extrapolate results across multiple species.

Abstract
T-type Ca(2+) channels play diverse roles in tissues such as sensory neurons, vascular smooth muscle, and cancers, where increased expression of the cytoprotective enzyme, heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is often found. Here, we report regulation of T-type Ca(2+) channels by carbon monoxide (CO) a HO-1 by-product. CO (applied as CORM-2) caused a concentration-dependent, poorly reversible inhibition of all T-type channel isoforms (Cav3.1-3.3, IC50 ∼3 μM) expressed in HEK293 cells, and native T-type channels in NG108-15 cells and primary rat sensory neurons. No recognized CO-sensitive signaling pathway could account for the CO inhibition of Cav3.2. Instead, CO sensitivity was mediated by an extracellular redox-sensitive site, which was also highly sensitive to thioredoxin (Trx). Trx depletion (using auranofin, 2-5 μM) reduced Cav3.2 currents and their CO sensitivity by >50% but increased sensitivity to dithiothreitol ∼3-fold. By contrast, Cav3.1 and Cav3.3 channels, and their sensitivity to CO, were unaffected in identical experiments. Our data propose a novel signaling pathway in which Trx acts as a tonic, endogenous regulator of Cav3.2 channels, while HO-1-derived CO disrupts this regulation, causing channel inhibition. CO modulation of T-type channels has widespread implications for diverse physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms, such as excitability, contractility, and proliferation.

Abstract
3β,16β,17α-Trihydroxycholest-5-en-22-one 16-O-(2-O-4-methoxybenzoyl-β-D-xylopyranosyl)-(1→3)-2-O-acetyl-α-L-arabinopyranoside (OSW-1) is a natural product with potent antitumor activity against various types of cancer cells, but the exact mechanisms of action remain to be defined. In this study, we showed that OSW-1 effectively killed leukemia cells at subnanomolar concentrations through a unique mechanism by causing a time-dependent elevation of cytosolic Ca(2+) prior to induction of apoptosis. A mechanistic study revealed that this compound inhibited the sodium-calcium exchanger 1 on the plasma membrane, leading to an increase in cytosolic Ca(2+) and a decrease in cytosolic Na(+). The elevated cytosolic Ca(2+) caused mitochondrial calcium overload and resulted in a loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, release of cytochrome c, and activation of caspase-3. Furthermore, OSW-1 also caused a Ca(2+)-dependent cleavage of the survival factor GRP78. Inhibition of Ca(2+) entry into the mitochondria by the uniporter inhibitor RU360 or by cyclosporin A significantly prevented the OSW-1-induced cell death, indicating the important role of mitochondria in mediating the cytotoxic activity. The extremely potent activity of OSW-1 against leukemia cells and its unique mechanism of action suggest that this compound may be potentially useful in the treatment of leukemia.

Abstract
Cellular calcium signaling plays important roles in several signal transduction pathways that control proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. In epithelial cells calcium signaling is initiated mainly by calcium release from endoplasmic-reticulum-associated intracellular calcium pools. Because calcium is accumulated in the endoplasmic reticulum by sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPases (SERCA), these enzymes play a critical role in the control of calcium-dependent cell activation, growth and survival. We investigated the modulation of SERCA expression and function in human lung adenocarcinoma cells. In addition to the ubiquitous SERCA2 enzyme, the SERCA3 isoform was also expressed at variable levels. SERCA3 expression was selectively enhanced during cell differentiation in lung cancer cells, and marked SERCA3 expression was found in fully differentiated normal bronchial epithelium. As studied by using a recombinant fluorescent calcium probe, induction of the expression of SERCA3, a lower calcium affinity pump, was associated with decreased intracellular calcium storage, whereas the amplitude of capacitative calcium influx remained unchanged. Our observations indicate that the calcium homeostasis of the endoplasmic reticulum in lung adenocarcinoma cells presents a functional defect due to decreased SERCA3 expression that is corrected during pharmacologically induced differentiation. The data presented in this work show, for the first time, that endoplasmic reticulum calcium storage is anomalous in lung cancer cells, and suggest that SERCA3 may serve as a useful new phenotypic marker for the study of lung epithelial differentiation.

Abstract
The central nervous system, which includes the spinal cord, retina, and brain, is derived from the neural tube. The neural tube is formed of a sheet of cells called the neuroepithelium. During embryonic development, neuroepithelial cells function as neural stem cells: they renew themselves while undergoing interkinetic nuclear movements along the apico-basal axis during the cell cycle, and they produce postmitotic cells that function as newborn neurons. Neuroepithelial cells exhibit a robust increase in nucleoplasmic [Ca(2+)] in response to G protein-coupled receptor activation during S-phase when the nucleus is located in the basal region of the cell. This Ca(2+) rise is caused by the release of Ca(2+) from intracellular Ca(2+) stores, and the Ca(2+) release in turn activates Ca(2+) entry from the extracellular space, which is called capacitative (or store-operated) Ca(2+) entry. The Ca(2+) release and store-operated Ca(2+) entry are essential for DNA synthesis during S-phase. The activity of this store-operated Ca(2+) signaling system declines in parallel with the decreasing proliferative activity of neuroepithelial cells. When exiting the cell cycle, the cells lose the apical process where gap junctions are located. Following the loss of gap junction coupling, the postmitotic cells show a high input resistance, which allows them to be readily depolarized. The Ca(2+) response to the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate appears and develops during neuronal differentiation. The glutamate-induced Ca(2+) rise increases transiently during natural cell death (apoptosis). The rise in Ca(2+) levels mediated by voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels also develops during neuronal differentiation. Thus, when neuroepithelial cells differentiate into neurons, a transition from a store-operated system to a voltage-operated system occurs in the main Ca(2+) signaling system. This transition may reflect a change in the mode of intercellular communication from a stored Ca(2+)-dependent mode to a plasma membrane potential-dependent mode.

Abstract
Coronary restenosis, a major complication of percutaneous balloon angioplasty, results from neointimal proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). The sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase isoform 2a (SERCA2a), specific to contractile VSMCs, has been reported previously to be involved in the control of the Ca2+-signaling pathways governing proliferation and migration. Moreover, SERCA2a gene transfer was reported to inhibit in vitro VSMC proliferation and to prevent neointimal thickening in a rat carotid injury model. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential therapeutic interest of SERCA2a gene transfer for prevention of in-stent restenosis using a human ex vivo model of left internal mammary artery (hIMA) intimal thickening. Left hIMAs, obtained at the time of aorto-coronary bypass surgeries, were subjected to balloon dilatation followed by infection for 30 min with adenoviruses encoding either human SERCA2 and GFP or control gene (beta-galactosidase) and GFP. Proliferation of subendothelial VSMCs and neointimal thickening were observed in balloon-injured hIMA maintained 14 days in organ culture under constant pressure and perfusion. SERCA2a gene transfer prevented vascular remodeling and significantly (p<0.01, n=5) reduced neointimal thickening in injured arteries (intima/media ratio was 0.07 ± 0.01 vs 0.40 ± 0.03 in βGal-infected arteries). These findings could have potential implications for treatment of pathological in stent-restenosis.

Abstract
During the embryonic development of the central nervous system, neuroepithelial cells act as neural stem cells. They undergo interkinetic nuclear movements along their apico-basal axis during the cell cycle. The neuroepithelial cell shows robust increases in the nucleoplasmic [Ca2+] in response to G protein-coupled receptor activation in S-phase, during which the nucleus is located in the basal region of the neuroepithelial cell. This response is caused by Ca2+ release from intracellular Ca2+ stores, which are comprised of the endoplasmic reticulum and the nuclear envelope. The Ca2+ release leads to the activation of Ca2+ entry from the extracellular space, which is called capacitative, or store-operated Ca2+ entry. These movements of Ca2+ are essential for DNA synthesis during S-phase. Spontaneous Ca2+ oscillations also occur synchronously across the cells. This synchronization is mediated by voltage fluctuations in the membrane potential of the nuclear envelope due to Ca2+ release and the counter movement of K+ ions; the voltage fluctuation induces alternating current (AC), which is transmitted via capacitative electrical coupling to the neighboring cells. The membrane potential across the plasma membrane is stabilized through gap junction coupling by lowering the input resistance. Thus, stored Ca2+ ions are a key player in the maintenance of the cellular activity of neuroepithelial cells.

Abstract
Targeting diseased cells is a challenging issue in both pharmacological and biological therapeutics. Gene therapy is emerging as a novel approach for treating rare diseases and for illnesses for which there is no other alternative. An important limitation of gene therapy has been the off-target effects and therefore efforts have been focused on increasing the specificity of gene transfer to the targeted organ. Here, we describe a promoter containing six nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) consensus sequences, which is as efficient as the cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter to drive expression in vascular smooth muscle cells both in vitro and in vivo. In contrast to the CMV promoter it is activated in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner after endoplasmic reticulum depletion and allows the transgene expression only in proliferative/diseased cells. Overexpression of sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (SR/ER) Ca(2+) ATPase 2a under the control of this NFAT promoter inhibits restenosis after angioplasty in rats. In conclusion, this promoter may be useful for gene therapy in vascular proliferative diseases and other diseases involving upregulation of the NFAT pathway.

Abstract
The sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) plays a critical role in Ca(2+) homeostasis via sequestration of this ion in the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum. The activity of this pump is inhibited by oxidants and impaired in aging tissues and cardiovascular disease. We have shown previously that the myeloperoxidase (MPO)-derived oxidants HOCl and HOSCN target thiols and mediate cellular dysfunction. As SERCA contains Cys residues critical to ATPase activity, we hypothesized that HOCl and HOSCN might inhibit SERCA activity, via thiol oxidation, and increase cytosolic Ca(2+) levels in human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAEC). Exposure of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles to preformed or enzymatically generated HOCl and HOSCN resulted in a concentration-dependent decrease in ATPase activity; this was also inhibited by the SERCA inhibitor thapsigargin. Decomposed HOSCN and incomplete MPO enzyme systems did not decrease activity. Loss of ATPase activity occurred concurrent with oxidation of SERCA Cys residues and protein modification. Exposure of HCAEC, with or without external Ca(2+), to HOSCN or HOCl resulted in a time- and concentration-dependent increase in intracellular Ca(2+) under conditions that did not result in immediate loss of cell viability. Thapsigargin, but not inhibitors of plasma membrane or mitochondrial Ca(2+) pumps/channels, completely attenuated the increase in intracellular Ca(2+) consistent with a critical role for SERCA in maintaining endothelial cell Ca(2+) homeostasis. Angiotensin II pretreatment potentiated the effect of HOSCN at low concentrations. MPO-mediated modulation of intracellular Ca(2+) levels may exacerbate endothelial dysfunction, a key early event in atherosclerosis, and be more marked in smokers because of their higher SCN(-) levels.

Abstract
During development, neurons can be generated directly from a multipotent progenitor or indirectly through an intermediate progenitor (IP). This last mode of division amplifies the progeny of neurons. The mechanisms governing the generation and behavior of IPs are not well understood. In this work, we demonstrate that the lengthening of the cell cycle enhances the generation of neurons in a human neural progenitor cell system in vitro and also the generation and expansion of IPs. These IPs are insulinoma-associated 1 (Insm1)(+)/BTG family member 2 (Btg2)(-), which suggests an increase in a self-amplifying IP population. Later the cultures express neurogenin 2 (Ngn2) and become neurogenic. The signaling responsible for this cell cycle modulation is investigated. It is found that the release of calcium from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cytosol in response to B cell lymphoma-extra large overexpression or ATP addition lengths the cell cycle and increases the number of IPs and, in turn, the final neuron outcome. Moreover, data suggest that the p53-p21 pathway is responsible for the changes in cell cycle. In agreement with this, increased p53 levels are necessary for a calcium-induced increase in neurons. Our findings contribute to understand how calcium signaling can modulate cell cycle length during neurogenesis.

Abstract
Ion channels and G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) play a fundamental role in cancer progression by influencing Ca(2+) influx and signaling pathways in transformed cells. Transformed cells thrive in a hostile environment that is characterized by extracellular acidosis that promotes the pathological phenotype. The pathway(s) by which extracellular protons achieve this remain unclear. Here, a role for proton-sensing ion channels and GPCRs as mediators of the effects of extracellular protons in cancer cells is discussed.

Abstract
Gravity has a structural role for living systems. Tissue development, architecture, and organization are modified when the gravity vector is changed. In particular, microgravity induces a redistribution of blood volume and thus pressure in the astronaut body, abolishing an upright blood pressure gradient, inducing orthostatic hypotension. The present study was designed to investigate whether isolated vascular smooth muscle cells are directly sensitive to altered gravitational forces and, second, whether sustained blood pressure changes act on the same molecular target. Exposure to microgravity during 8 days in the International Space Station induced the decrease of ryanodine receptor subtype 1 expression in primary cultured myocytes from rat hepatic portal vein. Identical results were found in portal vein from mice exposed to microgravity during an 8-day shuttle spaceflight. To evaluate the functional consequences of this physiological adaptation, we have compared evoked calcium signals obtained in myocytes from hindlimb unloaded rats, in which the shift of blood pressure mimics the one produced by the microgravity, with those obtained in myocytes from rats injected with antisense oligonucleotide directed against ryanodine receptor subtype 1. In both conditions, calcium signals implicating calcium-induced calcium release were significantly decreased. In contrast, in spontaneous hypertensive rat, an increase in ryanodine receptor subtype 1 expression was observed as well as the calcium-induced calcium release mechanism. Taken together, our results shown that myocytes were directly sensitive to gravity level and that they adapt their calcium signaling pathways to pressure by the regulation of the ryanodine receptor subtype 1 expression.
