The early signaling pathway of live yeast cell derivative in THP-1 monocytes. Cell Calcium 2018; 73:112-120.

Abstract
Live yeast cell derivative (LYCD) is a medicinal yeast extract that has been used in the treatment of burns, wounds and hemorrhoids for over 70 years. It has been shown to enhance the closure of skin wounds in diabetic mice by increasing inflammation, angiogenesis, formation of granulation tissue and epithelial migration. An active fraction of LYCD has been identified as a mixture of peptides ranging in size from 5 kDA to 17 kDA. Despite its widespread use over many years, understanding of the mechanism by which LYCD acts to effect tissue repair responses is very limited. In this study, we have used a human monocyte-derived cell line, THP-1, as a representative of the inflammatory component of the wound healing process. We have identified two of the earliest responses to LYCD as an increase in cytoplasmic free calcium ([Ca2+]i) and the transcripts for c-fos. We have found that the increase in [Ca2+]i is both necessary and sufficient to account for the LYCD-induced elevation of c-fos. Furthermore, we have shown that the signaling pathway by which LYCD elevates [Ca2+]i involves both mobilization of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and influx of Ca2+ from the extracellular medium. Mobilization of store Ca2+ occurs first via activation of phospholipase C and this is followed by influx through activation of store operated calcium channels. These results constitute the first delineation of the early steps of the LYCD signaling pathway.

Abstract
We assessed the roles of the protein kinase C (PKC) and the tyrosine kinase (TK) signaling pathways in regulating capacitative calcium entry (CCE) in human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) and investigated the effects of intravenous anesthetics (midazolam, propofol, thiopental, ketamine, etomidate, morphine, and fentanyl) on CCE in human PASMCs. Fura-2-loaded human PASMCs were placed in a dish (37°C) on an inverted fluorescence microscope. Intracellular Ca2+concentration ([Ca2+]i) was measured as the 340/380 fluorescence ratio in individual PASMCs. Thapsigargin, a sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-adenosine triphosphatase inhibitor, was used to deplete intracellular Ca2+stores after removing extracellular Ca2+. CCE was then activated by restoring extracellular Ca2+(2.2 mM). The effects of PKC activation and inhibition, TK inhibition, and the intravenous anesthetics on CCE were assessed. Thapsigargin caused a transient increase in [Ca2+]i. Restoring extracellular Ca2+caused a rapid peak increase in [Ca2+]i, followed by a sustained increase in [Ca2+]i; i.e., CCE was stimulated in human PASMCs. PKC activation attenuated ( P < 0.05), whereas PKC inhibition potentiated ( P < 0.05), both peak and sustained CCE. TK inhibition attenuated ( P < 0.05) both peak and sustained CCE. Midazolam, propofol, and thiopental each attenuated ( P < 0.05) both peak and sustained CCE, whereas ketamine, etomidate, morphine, and fentanyl had no effect on CCE. Our results suggest that CCE in human PASMCs is influenced by both the TK and PKC signaling pathways. Midazolam, propofol, and thiopental each attenuated CCE, whereas ketamine, etomidate, morphine, and fentanyl had no effect on CCE.

Abstract
A major pathway for Ca(2+) entry in non-excitable cells is activated following depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores. A de novo conformational coupling between elements in the plasma membrane (PM) and Ca(2+) stores has been proposed as the most likely mechanism to activate this capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE) in several cell types, including platelets. Here we report that a cytochrome P450 metabolite, 5,6-EET, might be a component of the de novo conformational coupling in human platelets. In these cells, 5,6-EET induces divalent cation entry without having any detectable effect on Ca(2+) store depletion. 5,6-EET-induced Ca(2+) entry was sensitive to the CCE blockers 2-APB, lanthanum, SKF-96365 and nickel and impaired by incubation with anti-hTRPC1 antibody. Ca(2+) entry stimulated by low concentrations of thapsigargin, which selectively depletes the dense tubular system and induces EET production, was impaired by the cytochrome P450 inhibitor 17-ODYA, which has no effect on CCE mediated by depletion of the acidic stores using 2,5-di-(tert-butyl)-1,4-hydroquinone. We have found that 5,6-EET-induced Ca(2+) entry requires basal levels of H(2)O(2), which might maintain a redox state favourable for this event. Finally, our results indicate that 5,6-EET induces the activation of tyrosine kinase proteins and the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton, which might provide a support for the transport of portions of the Ca(2+) store towards the PM to facilitate de novo coupling between IP(3)R type II and hTRPC1 detected by coimmunoprecipitation. We propose that the involvement of 5,6-EET in TG-induced coupling between IP(3)R type II and hTRPC1 and subsequently CCE is compatible with the de novo conformational coupling in human platelets.

Abstract
Using a combination of fluorescence measurements of intracellular Ca(2+) ion concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) and membrane potential we have investigated the sensitivity to serine/threonine phosphatase inhibition of Ca(2+) entry stimulated by activation of the Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) entry pathway in rat basophilic leukemia cells. In both suspension and adherent cells, addition of the type 1/2A phosphatase inhibitor calyculin A, during activation of CRAC uptake, resulted in a fall in [Ca(2+)](i) to near preactivation levels. Pre-treatment with calyculin A abolished the component of the Ca(2+) rise associated with activation of CRAC uptake and inhibited Mn(2+) entry, consistent with a requirement of phosphatase activity for activation of the pathway. Depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores is accompanied by a large depolarisation which is absolutely dependent upon Ca(2+) entry via the CRAC uptake pathway. Application of calyculin A or okadaic acid, a structurally unrelated phosphatase antagonist inhibits this depolarisation. Taken in concert, these data demonstrate a marked sensitivity of the CRAC entry pathway to inhibition by calyculin A and okadaic acid.

Abstract
Heterologous desensitization is a term that describes the observation that chronic exposure of a cell to an agonist attenuates its response to other agonists. To characterize the cellular mechanisms that might be responsible for heterologous desensitization in an insulin secretory cell system (INS-1), we investigated the link between G-protein alphai2 level and insulin secretion as the biological effect after prolonged incubation with glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). Persistent activation (8 h) of the GIP signalling pathway decreased the GLP (glucagon-like peptide)-1 dependent insulin secretion (specific radioimmunoassay) accompanied by an upregulation of G-protein alphai2 protein level to about 126% whereas G-protein alphai3 and alphas protein levels remained unchanged (assessed by Western blots using specific antibodies). This was accompanied by similar changes in Galphai2 mRNA. By using either the CaM kinase II inhibitor KN-62, the calcineurin inhibitor FK 506 or the protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor Rp-8-Br-cAMPS, the GIP-mediated Galphai2 mRNA increase was fully reversed. Heterologous desensitization of GLP-1-dependent insulin secretion by pretreatment with GIP, however, was not inhibited by calcium/calmodulin-dependent enzymes (using KN-62 and FK 506), but only by suppressing the cAMP/PKA signalling pathway using Rp-8-Br-cAMPS. The outcome is not disturbed by effects initiated by these compounds per se since an 8-h preincubation of cells did not affect glucose-induced insulin secretion. We, therefore, suggest that heterologous desensitization in INS-1 cells may be mediated by Galphai2 changes but depend on the cAMP/PKA signalling pathway probably distant form the Galphai2 protein.

Abstract
In electrically nonexcitable cells, Ca2+influx is essential for regulating a host of kinetically distinct processes involving exocytosis, enzyme control, gene regulation, cell growth and proliferation, and apoptosis. The major Ca2+entry pathway in these cells is the store-operated one, in which the emptying of intracellular Ca2+stores activates Ca2+influx (store-operated Ca2+entry, or capacitative Ca2+entry). Several biophysically distinct store-operated currents have been reported, but the best characterized is the Ca2+release-activated Ca2+current, ICRAC. Although it was initially considered to function only in nonexcitable cells, growing evidence now points towards a central role for ICRAC-like currents in excitable cells too. In spite of intense research, the signal that relays the store Ca2+content to CRAC channels in the plasma membrane, as well as the molecular identity of the Ca2+sensor within the stores, remains elusive. Resolution of these issues would be greatly helped by the identification of the CRAC channel gene. In some systems, evidence suggests that store-operated channels might be related to TRP homologs, although no consensus has yet been reached. Better understood are mechanisms that inactivate store-operated entry and hence control the overall duration of Ca2+entry. Recent work has revealed a central role for mitochondria in the regulation of ICRAC, and this is particularly prominent under physiological conditions. ICRACtherefore represents a dynamic interplay between endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, and plasma membrane. In this review, we describe the key electrophysiological features of ICRACand other store-operated Ca2+currents and how they are regulated, and we consider recent advances that have shed insight into the molecular mechanisms involved in this ubiquitous and vital Ca2+entry pathway.

Abstract
A single-cell approach for measuring the concentration of cytoplasmic calcium ions ([Ca(2+)](i)) and a protein kinase C-epsilon (PKCepsilon)-specific inhibitor were used to investigate the developmental role of PKCepsilon in the prostaglandin F(2alpha)(PGF(2alpha))-induced rise in [Ca(2+)](i) and the induced decline in progesterone accumulation in cultures of cells isolated from the bovine corpus luteum. PGF(2alpha) increased [Ca(2+)](i) in Day 4 large luteal cells (LLCs), but the response was significantly lower than in Day 10 LLCs (4.3 +/- 0.6, n = 116 vs. 21.3 +/- 2.3, n = 110). Similarly, the fold increase in the PGF(2alpha)-induced rise in [Ca(2+)](i) in Day 4 small luteal cells (SLCs) was lower than in Day 10 SLCs (1.6 +/- 0.2, n = 198 vs. 2.7 +/- 0.1, n = 95). A PKCepsilon inhibitor reduced the PGF(2alpha)-elicited calcium responses in both Day 10 LLCs and SLCs to 3.5 +/- 0.3 (n = 217) and 1.3 +/- 0.1 (n = 205), respectively. PGF(2alpha) inhibited LH-stimulated progesterone (P(4)) accumulation only in the incubation medium of Day 10 luteal cells. Both conventional and PKCepsilon-specific inhibitors reversed the ability of PGF(2alpha) to decrease LH-stimulated P(4) accumulation, and the PKCepsilon inhibitor was more effective at this than the conventional PKC inhibitor. In conclusion, the evidence indicates that PKCepsilon, an isozyme expressed in corpora lutea with acquired PGF(2alpha) luteolytic capacity, has a regulatory role in the PGF(2alpha)-induced Ca(2+) signaling in luteal steroidogenic cells, and that this in turn may have consequences (at least in part) on the ability of PGF(2alpha) to inhibit LH-stimulated P(4) synthesis at this developmental stage.

Abstract
1 We have investigated the effects of loperamide on intracellular Ca(2+) stores and membrane K(+) channels in insulin-secreting hamster insulinoma (HIT-T15) cells. 2 In cell-attached patch-clamp mode, loperamide (3-250 micro M) activated large single-channel currents. The loperamide-activated currents were tentatively identified as Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channel (K(Ca)) currents based on their single-channel conductance (145 pS), apparent reversal potential, and insensitivity to tolbutamide. Smaller single-channel currents with a conductance (32 pS) indicative of adenosine triphosphate-sensitive K(+) channels (K(ATP) channels) were also recorded, but were insensitive to loperamide. 3 Surprisingly, the loperamide-activated currents persisted in the absence of extracellular Ca(2+). Yet under these conditions, we still measured loperamide-induced Ca(2+) increases. These effects are dose dependent. Loperamide had no effects in the inside-out patch configuration, suggesting that loperamide does not directly activate the channels with large conductance, but does so secondarily to release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores. 4 Carbachol (100 micro M), an agonist of muscarinic receptors, which mediates IP(3)-dependent intracellular Ca(2+) release, enhanced the effects of loperamide on K(Ca) channels. 5 Both the putative K(Ca) currents and Ca(2+) signals induced by loperamide (with '0' [Ca(2+)](o)) were abolished when the intracellular Ca(2+) stores had been emptied by pretreating the cells with either carbachol or thapsigargin, an endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor that blocks reuptake of calcium. 6 These data indicate that loperamide in insulin-secreting beta-cells evokes intracellular Ca(2+) release from IP(3)-gated stores and activates membrane currents that appear to be carried by K(Ca), rather than K(ATP) channels.

Abstract
Protein kinase C (PKC) plays an important role in activating store-operated Ca2+ channels (SOC) in human mesangial cells (MC). The present study was performed to determine the specific isoform(s) of conventional PKC involved in activating SOC in MC. Fura 2 fluorescence ratiometry showed that the thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ entry (equivalent to SOC) was significantly inhibited by 1 microM Gö-6976 (a specific PKCalpha and betaI inhibitor) and PKCalpha antisense treatment (2.5 nM for 24-48 h). However, LY-379196 (PKCbeta inhibitor) and 2,2',3,3',4,4'-hexahydroxy-1,1'-biphenyl-6,6'-dimethanoldimethyl ether (HBDDE; PKCalpha and gamma inhibitor) failed to affect thapsigargin-evoked activation of SOC. Single-channel analysis in the cell-attached configuration revealed that Gö-6976 and PKCalpha antisense significantly depressed thapsigargin-induced activation of SOC. However, LY-379196 and HBDDE did not affect the SOC responses. In inside-out patches, application of purified PKCalpha or betaI, but not betaII or gamma, significantly rescued SOC from postexcision rundown. Western blot analysis revealed that thapsigargin evoked a decrease in cytosolic expression with a corresponding increase in membrane expression of PKCalpha and gamma. However, the translocation from cytosol to membranes was not detected for PKCbetaI or betaII. These results suggest that PKCalpha participates in the intracellular signaling pathway for activating SOC upon release of intracellular stores of Ca2+.

Abstract
Acetylcholine (ACh), the major parasympathetic neurotransmitter, is released by intrapancreatic nerve endings during the preabsorptive and absorptive phases of feeding. In beta-cells, ACh binds to muscarinic M(3) receptors and exerts complex effects, which culminate in an increase of glucose (nutrient)-induced insulin secretion. Activation of PLC generates diacylglycerol. Activation of PLA(2) produces arachidonic acid and lysophosphatidylcholine. These phospholipid-derived messengers, particularly diacylglycerol, activate PKC, thereby increasing the efficiency of free cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](c)) on exocytosis of insulin granules. IP3, also produced by PLC, causes a rapid elevation of [Ca(2+)](c) by mobilizing Ca(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum; the resulting fall in Ca(2+) in the organelle produces a small capacitative Ca(2+) entry. ACh also depolarizes the plasma membrane of beta-cells by a Na(+)- dependent mechanism. When the plasma membrane is already depolarized by secretagogues such as glucose, this additional depolarization induces a sustained increase in [Ca(2+)](c). Surprisingly, ACh can also inhibit voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels and stimulate Ca(2+) efflux when [Ca(2+)](c) is elevated. However, under physiological conditions, the net effect of ACh on [Ca(2+)](c) is always positive. The insulinotropic effect of ACh results from two mechanisms: one involves a rise in [Ca(2+)](c) and the other involves a marked, PKC-mediated increase in the efficiency of Ca(2+) on exocytosis. The paper also discusses the mechanisms explaining the glucose dependence of the effects of ACh on insulin release.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca(2+) channels (SOC) are expressed in cultured human mesangial cells and activated by epidermal growth factor through a pathway involving protein kinase C (PKC). We used fura-2 fluorescence and patch clamp experiments to determine the role of PKC in mediating the activation of SOC after depletion of internal stores by thapsigargin. The measurements of intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) revealed that the thapsigargin-induced Ca(2+) entry pathway was abolished by calphostin C, a protein kinase C inhibitor. The PKC activator, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), promoted a Ca(2+) influx that was significantly attenuated by calphostin C and La(3+) but not by diltiazem. Neither PMA nor calphostin C altered the thapsigargin-induced initial transient rise in [Ca(2+)](i). In cell-attached patch clamp experiments, the thapsigargin-induced activation of SOC was potentiated by PMA and abolished by both calphostin C and staurosporine. However, SOC was unaffected by thapsigargin when clamping [Ca(2+)](i) with 1,2-bis (o-Aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'tetraacetic acid tetra(acetoxymethyl)ester. In the absence of thapsigargin, PMA and phorbol 12, 13-didecanoate evoked a significant increase in NP(O) of SOC, whereas calphostin C did not affect base-line channel activity. In inside-out patches, SOC activity ran down immediately upon excision but was reactivated significantly after adding the catalytic subunit of 0.1 unit/ml of PKC plus 100 microm ATP. Neither ATP alone nor ATP with heat-inactivated PKC rescued a rundown of SOC. Metavanadate, a general protein phosphatase inhibitor, also enhanced SOC activity in inside-out patches. Bath [Ca(2+)] did not significantly affect the channel activity in inside-out patch. These results indicate that the depletion of Ca(2+) stores activates SOC by PKC-mediated phosphorylation of the channel proteins or a membrane-associated complex.

Abstract
Sixty years after its initial discovery, the octapeptide hormone angiotensin II (AngII) has proved to play numerous physiological roles that reach far beyond its initial description as a hypertensive factor. In spite of the host of target tissues that have been identified, only two major receptor subtypes, AT1 and AT2, are currently fully identified. The specificity of the effects of AngII relies upon numerous and complex intracellular signaling pathways that often mobilize calcium ions from intracellular stores or from the extracellular medium. Various types of calcium channels (store- or voltage-operated channels) endowed with distinct functional properties play a crucial role in these processes. The activity of these channels can be modulated by AngII in a positive and/or negative fashion, depending on the cell type under observation. This chapter reviews the main characteristics of AngII receptor subtypes and of the various calcium channels as well as the involvement of the multiple signal transduction mechanisms triggered by the hormone in the cell-specific modulation of the activity of these channels.

Abstract
We investigated the potential roles of specific isoforms of protein kinase C (PKC) in the regulation of leukotriene D(4)-induced Ca(2+) signaling in the intestinal epithelial cell line Int 407. RT-PCR and Western blot analysis revealed that these cells express the PKC isoforms alpha, betaII, delta, epsilon, zeta, and mu, but not betaI, gamma, eta, or theta;. The inflammatory mediator leukotriene D(4) (LTD(4)) caused the TPA-sensitive PKC isoforms alpha, delta, and epsilon, but not betaII, to rapidly translocate to a membrane-enriched fraction. The PKC inhibitor GF109203X at 30 microM but not 2 microM significantly impaired the LTD(4)-induced Ca(2+) signal, indicating that the response involves a novel PKC isoform, such as delta or epsilon, but not alpha. LTD(4)-induced Ca(2+) signaling was significantly suppressed in cells pretreated with TPA for 15 min and was abolished when the pretreatment was prolonged to 2 h. Immunoblot analysis revealed that the reduction in the LTD(4)-induced calcium signal coincided with a reduction in the cellular content of PKCepsilon and, to a limited extent, PKCdelta. LTD(4)-induced Ca(2+) signaling was also markedly suppressed by microinjection of antibodies against PKCepsilon but not PKCdelta. These data suggest that PKCepsilon plays a unique role in regulation of the LTD(4)-dependent Ca(2+) signal in intestinal epithelial cells.

Abstract
In non-excitable cells, sustained intracellular Ca2+ increase critically depends on influx of extracellular Ca2+. Such Ca2+ influx is thought to occur by a 'store-operated' mechanism, i.e. the signal for Ca2+ entry is believed to result from the initial release of Ca2+ from inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-sensitive intracellular stores. Here we show that the depletion of cellular Ca2+ stores by thapsigargin or bradykinin is functionally linked to a phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase D (PLD) activity in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC), and that phosphatidic acid formed via PLD enhances sustained calcium entry in this cell type. These results suggest a regulatory role for PLD in store-operated Ca2+ entry in VSMC.

Abstract
Previously, we reported that the phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC) inhibitor tricyclodecan-9-yl xanthogenate (D609) potentiates thapsigargin-induced Ca(2+) influx in human lymphocytes. In the present study we examined the effect of D609 on the thapsigargin-induced Na(+) entry. We found that the early phase of the thapsigargin-induced increase in the intracellular Na(+) concentration (approx. 1-2 min after stimulation) was attenuated after preincubation of lymphocytes with D609. By contrast, thapsigargin-induced Na(+) influx was not affected in the presence butan-1-ol, which inhibits phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase D (PC-PLD). The thapsigargin-induced Na(+) influx could be mimicked by PC-PLC exogenously added to the lymphocyte suspension, whereas addition of PC-PLD had no effect. In addition, thapsigargin stimulated formation of the physiological PC-PLC products, diacylglycerol. Cell-permeable diacylglycerol analogue, dioctanoyl-glycerol (DOG), produced time- and concentration-dependent increase in the intracellular Na(+) concentration. Both thapsigargin- and DOG-induced Na(+) increases were not affected in the presence of Na(+)/H(+) antiport inhibitor, HOE609, or Na(+)/Ca(2+) antiport inhibitor, dimethylthiourea, as well as in the presence of Co(2+) and Ni(2+), which block store-operated Ca(2+) entry. By contrast, markedly reduced thapsigargin- and DOG-induced Na(+) influx were noted in the presence of flufenamic acid, which blocks the non-selective cation current (I(CRANC)). In conclusion, our results suggest that diacylglycerol released due to the PC-PLC activation contributes to the thapsigargin-induced Na(+) entry.

Abstract
I investigated the role of protein kinase C (PKC) in regulation of the capacitative Ca2+ entry and steroidogenesis in bovine adrenocortical (BA) cells. Thapsigargin (TG)-treatment depleted intracellular Ca2+ stores followed by induction of Ca2+ influx from the extracellular pool and also increasing of Mn2+ influx as an indicator of divalent cation influx in BA cells. Calphostin C, a PKC inhibitor, inhibited the TG-induced [Ca2+]i elevation dose-dependently (0.1-1 microM) and attenuated Mn2+ entry. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), an activator of PKC, potentiated the elevation of [Ca2+]i and enhanced Mn2+ entry by TG treatment. These results suggest that PKC may modulate capacitative Ca2+ entry in BA cells. In the presence of extracellular Ca2+, TG enhanced cortisol production in BA cells. Calphostin C attenuated the TG-induced steroidogenesis dose-dependently (0.25-1 microM). PMA enhanced the steroidogenesis dose-dependently (1-100 nM). These results suggested that PKC may have a modulatory effect on the capacitative Ca2+ entry that links to steroidogenesis in BA cells.

Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (7-36)amide (GLP-1) is an insulinotropic intestinal peptide hormone with a potential role as antidiabetogenic therapeutic agent. It mediates a potentiation of glucose-induced insulin secretion, by activation of adenylate cyclase and subsequent elevation of cytosolic free calcium, [Ca2+]cyt. We investigated the role of protein kinase A (PKA) in GLP-1 signal transduction, using isolated mouse islets as well as the differentiated beta-cell line INS-1. Two specific inhibitors of PKA, (Rp)-adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosporothioate (Rp-cAMPS, up to 3 mM) and KT5720 (up to 10 microM), did not inhibit the GLP-1-induced [Ca2+]cyt elevation. Another PKA inhibitor, H-89, reduced the [Ca2+]cyt elevation only when applied at high concentrations (10-40 microM), higher than sufficient for PKA inhibition in many cell types. Furthermore, at these concentrations, H-89 also inhibited presumably PKA-independent processes such as glucose-induced [Ca2+]cyt elevations and intracellular calcium storage. This suggests a PKA-independent action of H-89. Similarly to H-89, the potent but unselective protein kinase inhibitor staurosporine inhibited the GLP-1-induced [Ca2+]cyt elevation only at high concentrations, at which it also inhibited glucose-induced [Ca2+]cyt elevations. The same observations as with GLP-1 were made when adenylate cyclase was stimulated with forskolin, for selective examination of signal transduction downstream of receptor and G protein. Our results suggest that the GLP-1-induced [Ca2+]cyt elevation is mediated independently of PKA and thus belongs to the yet-little-characterized ensemble of effects that are mediated by binding of cAMP to other target proteins.

Abstract
Previous investigations have shown that phorbol esters stimulate process extension in oligodendrocytes (OL), likely by the activation of protein kinase C (PKC). In this report, we demonstrate that treatment of OL with 4beta-phorbol-12, 13-dibutyrate (PDB; 0.1-1 microM) resulted in an increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) from 94+/-2 nM (mean+/-S.E.M.) to 244+/-10 nM. This increase was produced by Ca2+ influx through a La3+-insensitive pathway. Changes in [Ca2+]i were also produced by modifying the extracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]o) where [Ca2+]i was increased by elevations in [Ca2+]o. In parallel experiments we found that increased [Ca2+]o alone, without concurrent phorbol ester application, resulted in increased OL process extension as determined by the percent of OL with long processes (greater than 3 times the cell body diameter). These results demonstrate that increasing [Ca2+]o stimulates OL process outgrowth. Furthermore, both elevations in [Ca2+]o and PDB exposure increase [Ca2+]i, suggesting that some of the effects of phorbol esters on OL process extension are likely mediated by changes in [Ca2+]i.

Abstract
1. We have studied capacitative calcium entry (CCE) under different experimental conditions in fura-2-loaded mouse pancreatic acinar cells by digital microscopic fluorimetry. CCE was investigated during [Ca2+]i decay after cell stimulation with a supramaximal concentration of ACh (10 microM) or during Ca2+ readmission in Ca2+-depleted cells (pretreated with thapsigargin or ACh). 2. La3+ and Zn2+ (100 microM) inhibited CCE during Ca2+ readmission but had negligible effects during ACh decay. In contrast flufenamic acid (100 microM), an inhibitor of non-selective cation channels, genistein (10 microM), a broad-range tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and piceatannol (10 microM), an inhibitor specific for non-receptor Syk tyrosine kinase, inhibited CCE during ACh decay but not during Ca2+ reintroduction. 3. Simultaneous detection of Mn2+ entry and [Ca2+]i measurement showed that, in the presence of extracellular calcium, application of 100 microM Mn2+ during ACh decay resulted in manganese influx without alteration of calcium influx, whilst when applied during Ca2+ readmission, Mn2+ entry was significantly smaller and induced a clear inhibition of CCE. 4. Application of the specific protein kinase C inhibitor GF109293X (3 microM) reduced CCE in Ca2+-depleted cells, whereas the activator phorbol 12-myristate, 13-acetate (3 microM) increased Ca2+ entry. 5. Based on these results we propose that cholinergic stimulation of mouse pancreatic acinar cells induces Ca2+ influx with an initial phase operated by a non-specific cation channel, sensitive to flufenamic acid and tyrosine kinase inhibitors but insensitive to lanthanum and divalent cations, followed by a moderately Ca2+-selective conductance inhibited by lanthanum and divalent cations.

Abstract
Activation of adenylyl cyclase by Gs-coupled receptors for insulinotropic hormones such as glucagon-like peptide-1 and pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide plays a critical role in stimulating glucose-induced insulin secretion. Despite this important role of insulinotropic hormones in the regulation of insulin secretion, little is known about which of the multiple subtypes of adenylyl cyclase are expressed in beta-cells. Here we report the use of PCR primers designed to amplify all subtypes of adenylyl cyclase from cDNA prepared from human and rat islets and from insulin-secreting beta-cell lines. PCR products were cloned and sequenced to identify the subtypes of adenylyl cyclase amplified. Adenylyl cyclase types V and VI, known to couple to Galphas and Gbetagamma in the cAMP signaling pathway, account for all subtypes identified in human islets and INS-1 cells and the majority of subtypes in rat islets and HIT-T15 cells. These findings indicate that pancreatic beta-cells are particularly well suited to transmit signals via Gs-coupled receptors such as that for glucagon-like peptide-1.

Abstract
In skeletal muscle cells the steroid hormone 1alpha, 25-dihydroxy-vitamin-D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) nongenomically promotes Ca2+ release from intracellular stores and cation influx through both L-type and store-operated Ca2+ (SOC) channels. In the present work we evaluated the regulation and kinetics of the 1, 25(OH)2D3-stimulated SOC influx in chick muscle cells. Stimulation with 10(-9) M 1,25(OH)2D3 in Ca2+-free medium resulted in a rapid (40-60 s) but transient [Ca2+]i rise, which correlated with sterol-dependent inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production. The SOC influx stimulated by the hormone was insensitive to both L-type channel antagonists and polyphosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PPI-PLC) inhibitors but was fully inhibitable by La3+ and Ni2+. PPI-PLC blockade prior to 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulation suppressed both the [Ca2+]i transient and the SOC influx. 1,25(OH)2D3-induced SOC entry was markedly increased after 3 min of treatment (30% above basal) and then rapidly reached a steady-state level. The sterol-stimulated SOC influx was prevented by protein kinase C and tyrosine kinase inhibitors but unaffected by blockade of the protein kinase A pathway. None of these inhibitors altered the thapsigargin-induced SOC entry, suggesting the operation of a signaling mechanism different from that for sterol-dependent SOC influx. The present results indicate that 1,25(OH)2D3-induced activation of PPI-PLC is upstream to Ca2+ influx through SOC channels and point for a role of both protein kinase C and tyrosine kinases but not protein kinase A in the regulation of the sterol-dependent SOCE pathway.

Abstract
Mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ stores is coupled to Ca2+ influx across the plasma membrane, a process termed capacitative Ca2+ entry. Capacitative Ca2+ entry was examined in cultured guinea pig enteric glia exposed to 100 microM ATP, an inositol trisphosphate-mediated Ca2+-mobilizing agonist, and to 1 microM thapsigargin, an inhibitor of microsomal Ca2+ ATPase. Both agents caused mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ stores followed by influx of extracellular Ca2+. This capacitative Ca2+ influx was inhibited by Ni2+ (88 +/- 1%) and by La3+ (87 +/- 1%) but was not affected by L- or N-type Ca2+ channel blockers. Pretreatment of glia with 100 nM phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate for 24 h decreased capacitative Ca2+ entry by 48 +/- 2%. Chelerythrine (0.1-10 microM), a specific antagonist of protein kinase C (PKC), dose dependently inhibited capacitative Ca2+ entry. The nitric oxide synthase inhibitor NG-nitro-L-arginine (1 mM) decreased Ca2+ influx by 42 +/- 1%. Capacitative Ca2+ entry was inhibited to a similar degree by the guanylate cyclase inhibitor (1H-[1,2,4]oxadiazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one). Capacitative Ca2+ entry occurs in enteric glial cells via lanthanum-inhibitable channels through a process regulated by PKC and nitric oxide.

Abstract
Treatment of HL-60 cells with thapsigargin, a microsomal Ca2+/ATPase inhibitor, led to depletion of intracellular calcium stores followed by capacitative calcium entry. Stimulation of adenylyl cyclase with forskolin enhanced thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ influx. The forskolin effect was confirmed by enhanced fluorescence quenching induced by Mn2+ entry into fura-2 loaded cells. 1,9-Dideoxy-forskolin, an inactive analog of forskolin, did not affect capacitative calcium entry. On the other hand, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), an activator of protein kinase C, inhibited thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ entry. Histamine and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) elevated intracellular adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) levels and enhanced the thapsigargin-induced capacitative calcium entry. Incubation with N-[2-(p-bromocynnamylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H89), an inhibitor of protein kinase A (PKA), blocked the forskolin effect, and GF109203X, an inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC), blocked the phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate effect. The results suggest that protein kinase A regulates capacitative calcium entry positively, but that protein kinase C regulates Ca2+ influx negatively. Furthermore, after differentiation of HL-60 promyelocytes with dimethylsulfoxide to granulocytes, the inhibitory effect of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate became more pronounced, whereas the stimulatory effect of prostaglandin E2 did not change. This result suggests that the regulation of capacitative calcium entry by protein kinase C and protein kinase A develops differently during differentiation.

Abstract
Visual excitation in rhabdomeric photoreceptors is thought to be mediated by activation of a light-regulated phospholipase C (PLC) and the consequent hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate. Whereas much attention has been devoted to inositol trisphosphate (IP3) production and intracellular Ca2+ release, little is known about the possible role of the DAG branch in the generation of the light response. We have tested the effect of chemically distinct surrogates of DAG on isolated Lima photoreceptors. Application of the phorbol ester PMA (0.5-10 microM) or the alkaloid (-)-indolactam (20-100 microM) from a holding potential of -50 mV elicited an inward current, several hundred picoamperes in amplitude, accompanied by a pronounced increase in membrane conductance. The stereoisomers 4alpha-PMA and (+)-indolactam were both inactive, arguing for the specificity of the effects. Elevation of cytosolic Ca2+ by intracellular dialysis accelerated this current, whereas chelerythrine antagonized it, suggesting the involvement of PKC. The reversal potential of the membrane current induced by PKC activators was approximately +10 mV; replacement of extracellular Na with impermeant N-methyl-D-glucamine decreased its amplitude and shifted the reversal potential in the negative direction. Stimulation by PMA and (-)-indolactam was accompanied by a pronounced depression of light responsiveness; conversely, steady illumination reduced the size of the current elicited by these PKC activators. Taken together, these results support the notion that the DAG branch of the PLC cascade, in addition to its suggested participation in visual adaptation, may play a role in the activation of the photoresponse or a component thereof, probably in synergy with IP3-mediated Ca2+ release.

Abstract
Although neurotransmitters are present in pancreatic islets of Langerhans and can be shown to alter hormone secretion, their precise physiological roles in islet function and their cellular mechanisms of action are unclear. Recent research has identified specific neurotransmitter receptor isoforms in islets that may be important physiologically, because selective receptor agonists activate islet ion channels, modify intracellular [Ca2+], and affect secretion. This article focuses on the putative roles of acetylcholine, glutamate, and GABA in islet function. It has been hypothesized that acetylcholine potentiates insulin secretion by either promoting Ca release from cellular stores, activating a store depletion-activated channel, or activating a novel Na channel. GABA and glutamate, in contrast, have been proposed to mediate a novel paracrine signaling pathway whereby alpha- and beta-cells communicate within the islet. The evidence supporting these hypotheses will be critically evaluated.

Abstract
1. In non-excitable cells, the depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores triggers Ca2+ influx by a process called capacitative Ca2+ entry. In the present study, we have investigated how the emptying of these stores by thapsigargin (1 microM) influences Ca2+ influx in electrically excitable pancreatic beta-cells. The cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was monitored in clusters of mouse beta-cells or in whole islets loaded with fura-2. 2. The membrane was first held hyperpolarized by diazoxide, an opener of ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channels, in the presence of 4.8 mM K+. Alternating between Ca(2+)-free medium and medium containing 2.5 mM Ca2+ caused a minor rise in [Ca2+]i (approximately 14 nM) in clusters of beta-cells. A larger rise (approximately 65 nM), resistant to the blockade of voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels by D600, occurred when extracellular Ca2+ was readmitted after emptying intracellular Ca2+ stores with thapsigargin or acetylcholine. Thus there exists a small capacitative Ca2+ entry in beta-cells. 3. When the membrane potential was clamped at depolarized levels with 10, 20 or 45 mM K+ in the presence of diazoxide, [Ca2+]i increased to different plateau levels ranging between 100 and 900 nM. Thapsigargin consistently caused a further transient rise in [Ca2+]i, but had little (at 10 mM K+) or no effect on the plateau level. This confirms that the capacitative Ca2+ entry is small. 4. In clusters of cells whose membrane potential was not clamped with diazoxide, 15 mM glucose (in 4.8 mM K+) induced [Ca2+]i oscillations by promoting Ca2+ influx through voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels. The application of thapsigargin accelerated these oscillations and increased their amplitude, sometimes causing a sustained elevation of [Ca2+]i. Similar results were obtained from whole islets perifused with a medium containing > or = 6 mM glucose. The effect of thapsigargin was always much larger than expected from the capacitative Ca2+ entry, probably because of a potentiation of Ca2+ influx through voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels. 5. This potentiating effect of thapsigargin did not result from an acceleration of cell metabolism since the drug did not affect glucose-induced changes in NAD(P)H fluorescence. It is also unlikely to involve the inhibition of KATP channels because thapsigargin steadily elevated [Ca2+]i in cells in which [Ca2+]i oscillations persisted in the presence of a maximally effective concentration of tolbutamide. 6. In conclusion, the emptying of intracellular Ca2+ stores in beta-cells induces a small capacitative Ca2+ entry and activates a depolarizing current which potentiates glucose-induced Ca2+ influx through voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels.

Abstract
Extracellular ATP increases intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) in HL-60 cells. When cells are stimulated with supramaximal concentrations of ATP, although the initial [Ca2+]i increase is similar over a range of 30, 100, and 300 microM ATP, the rate of the return to basal [Ca2+]i level is faster in cells treated with higher concentrations of ATP. This probably results from differences in Ca2+ influx rather than Ca2+ release, since the influx of the unidirectional Ca2+ surrogates Ba2+ and Mn2+ also exhibit similar responses. Furthermore, while 300 microM ATP had an inhibitory effect on the thapsigargin-induced capacitative Ca2+ entry, 30 microM ATP potentiated the response. However, the inhibitory action of 300 microM ATP was blocked by protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors, such as GF 109203X and chelerythrine, and the potentiating action of 30 microM ATP was blocked by protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitors H89 and Rp-cAMPS. The PKC inhibitors also slowed the decay rate of the Ca2+ response induced by 300 microM ATP, and the PKA inhibitors increased it when induced by 30 microM ATP. In the measurements of PKA and PKC activity, 30 microM ATP activates only PKA, while 300 microM ATP activates both kinases. Taken together, these data suggest that the changes in the ATP-induced Ca2+ response result from differential modulation of ATP-induced capacitative Ca2+ entry by PKC and PKA in HL-60 cells.

Abstract
Maitotoxin (MTX) activates a Ca2+-dependent non-selective cation current (ICa-NS) in insulinoma cells whose time course is identical to non-selective cation currents activated by incretin hormones such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which stimulate glucose-dependent insulin secretion by activating cAMP signaling pathways. We investigated the mechanism of activation of ICa-NS in insulinoma cells using specific pharmacological reagents, and these studies further support an identity between MTX- and GLP-1-activated currents. ICa-NS is inhibited by extracellular application of genistein, econazole, and SKF 96365. This inhibition by genistein suggests that tyrosine phophorylation may play a role in the activation of ICa-NS. ICa-NS is not inhibited by incubation of cells in glucose-free solution, by extracellular tetrodotoxin, nimodipine, or tetraethylammonium, or by intracellular dialysis with 4-aminopyridine, ATP, ryanodine, or heparin. ICa-NS is also not significantly inhibited by staurosporine, which does, however, partially inhibit the MTX-induced rise of intracellular Ca2+ concentration. These effects of staurosporine suggest that protein kinase C may not be involved in the activation of ICa-NS but that it may regulate intracellular Ca2+ release. Alternatively, ICa-NS may have a small component that is carried through separate divalent cation-selective channels that are inhibited by staurosporine. ICa-NS is neither activated nor inhibited by dialysis with KF, KF + AlF3 or GTPgammaS (guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate)), suggesting that GTP-binding proteins do not play a major role in the activation of this current.

Abstract
Transmembrane Ca(2+)-flux was studied from single isolated turtle hepatocytes by using a noninvasive Ca(2+)-selective self-referencing microelectrode. Cells in Ca(2+)-reduced culture medium demonstrated a vanadate- and lanthanum-inhibitable Ca(2+)-efflux of 4 x 10(-17) mol Ca2+. microns-2. s-1 continuously over 170 h. This flux diminished with 50 nM phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, a protein kinase C (PKC) activator, and was reinstated on PKC deactivation with sphingosine. Progressive hypoxia resulted in a reversible suppression of Ca2+ efflux to 90% of normoxic controls with an apparent Michaelis constant for oxygen of 145 microM. PKC activation was critical in this suppression, as anaerobic administration of sphingosine caused a Ca2+ influx and cell rupture. Hypoxia was also associated with an altered pattern of adenosine-mediated control over Ca2+ efflux. Adenosine (100 microM) elevated Ca2+ efflux twofold in normoxia, but neither adenosine nor the A1-purinoreceptor antagonist 8-phenyltheophylline altered the observed anaerobic suppression. Aerobic administration of 2-10 mM KCN failed to reproduce the anaerobic suppression; however, in conjunction with 10 mM iodoacetate, complete metabolic blockade caused a Ca2+ influx and cell rupture. These observations suggest modulatory control by oxygen over transmembrane Ca2+ efflux involving second-messenger systems in the hypoxic transition.

Abstract
The hormone leptin is expressed and secreted by the adipose tissue and impacts on the central nervous system. Leptin is involved in the regulation of energy balance, satiety, and body composition. The lack of active leptin results in obesity, high food intake, hyperglycemia, and hyperinsulinemia. We present data supporting effects of leptin on the endocrine pancreas. We found the leptin receptor to be expressed in insulin- and glucagon-secretin cells derived from mouse, hamster, and rat pancreas. In the isolated perfused rat pancreas leptin is a potent inhibitor of basal and glucose-induced insulin secretion, especially during the first phase of the insulin response. At isolated mouse islets and insulin-secreting INS-1 cells leptin reduced promptly and persistently the intracellular Ca2+ levels. Cytoplasmic Ca2+ oscillation amplitude was decreased and the oscillation frequency increased. These findings suggest functional active receptors for leptin on insulin-secreting B-cells. Therefore, leptin is a metabolic hormone and not only a signal to the brain indicating filled fat stores. Our data suggest that leptin is also a signal back to the endocrine pancreas that no more insulin is required to replenish fat stores. Thus, an "adipo-insular axis" operating with two arms exists: insulin and glucagon are signals to the adipocyte. This releases leptin, which could be the mediator of the respective feedback to the pancreas. A defective leptin suppression of insulin secretion could contribute to hyperinsulinemia and disturbances of glucose metabolism.

Abstract
PACAP and GLP-1 depolarize pancreatic beta cells and stimulate insulin secretion in the presence of glucose. Depolarization occurs through at least two distinct mechanisms: (1) closure of ATP-sensitive K+ channels, and (2) activation of nonselective cation channels (NSCCs). Under physiological conditions the NSCCs carry a predominantly Na(+)-dependent current. The current may also have a Ca2+ component, but this remains to be determined. Acting together, these two signaling systems reinforce each other and serve to promote membrane depolarization, a rise of [Ca2+]i, and exocytosis of insulin-containing secretory granules. The NSCCs in beta cells are dually regulated by intracellular cAMP and [Ca2+]i. In view of this dual regulation, it appears likely that NSCC channel activation results from signaling events occurring not only at the plasma membrane (gating of channels by cAMP; protein kinase A-mediated phosphorylation of channels) but also at intracellular sites (mobilization of calcium stores by an as yet to be determined process). It is noteworthy that activation of NSCCs has also been reported following stimulation of beta-cells with maitotoxin, or after depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores. Therefore, the possibility arises that PACAP, GLP-1, and maitotoxin all act on the same types of ion channels in these cells, and that these channels are sensitive to alterations in the content of intracellular calcium. FIGURE 6 summarizes our current knowledge concerning the properties of the PACAP and GLP-1 signaling systems as they pertain to the regulation of NSCCs and intracellular calcium homeostasis in the beta cell. Given that PACAP and GLP-1 are proven to be exceptionally potent insulin secretagogues, it is of considerable interest to determine their usefulness as blood glucose-lowering agents. Initial evaluations of the therapeutic effectiveness of GLP-1 indicate a role for this peptide in the treatment of NIDDM, and also possibly insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). A very attractive feature of such a strategy is the demonstrated lack of hypoglycemic side effects attendant to administration of GLP-1 to diabetic subjects. These observations reinforce the notion that peptides of the PACAP/glucagon/VIP family represent important pharmacological tools for use in experimental therapeutics.

Abstract
Experiments were undertaken to investigate the regulation of capacitative Ca2+ entry by phorbol ester-sensitive protein kinase C and serine/threonine protein phosphatase activity. The thapsigargin-activated Ca2+ entry pathway was probed in control cells and cells treated with phosphatase type 1/2A inhibitors, okadaic acid and calyculin A, or with the phorbol ester, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. The permeability state of this pathway was monitored in the presence or absence of these agents using fluorometric measurements of intracellular Ca2+ concentration, unidirectional Mn2+ entry, and membrane potential and unidirectional measurements of Ca2+ uptake using 45Ca2+. The results of these studies demonstrate that modification of the phosphorylation state of target protein(s) on serine/threonine amino acid residues by inhibition of phosphatase type 1/2A inhibits the capacitative Ca2+ entry pathway in rat thymic lymphocytes. Importantly, the capacitative Ca2+ entry pathway in rat thymic lymphocytes is not modulated by activation of phorbol ester-sensitive protein kinase C.

Abstract
In NIH 3T3 cells, treatment with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) reduced the release of Ca2+ by thapsigargin, but did not activate Ca2+ entry; Ca2+ influx was triggered after the residual pool was emptied by thapsigargin, and this Ca2+ influx was similar to that induced by thapsigargin in control cells. The effect of PMA was due to decreased Ca2+ storage because 1) Ca2+ release by ionomycin was similarly affected by PMA, and in both control and PMA-treated cells, ionomycin did not release Ca2+ following thapsigargin treatment; 2) PMA reduced 45Ca2+ accumulation; and 3) studies with Ca2+ indicator compartmentalized into the endoplasmic reticulum indicated that stored Ca2+ was reduced by PMA. Although PMA did not itself activate Ca2+ entry, PMA potentiated Ca2+ entry with low concentrations of cyclopiazonic acid. With a somewhat higher concentration of cyclopiazonic acid, PMA had no effect on calcium entry. Thus, protein kinase C has two apparent actions on calcium signaling in NIH 3T3 cells: 1) reduced intracellular Ca2+ storage capacity and 2) augmented calcium entry with submaximal intracellular Ca2+ pool depletion. These actions indicate a complex and potentially important role for the protein kinase C system in calcium homeostasis in this cell type.

Abstract
We have previously shown that two intracellular events which occur during capacitation of bovine sperm are the formation of actin filaments on the plasma and outer acrosomal membranes and the attachment of a PIP2-specific phospholipase C (PLC) to this membrane bound F-actin. This PLC plays an essential role in sperm exocytosis (acrosome reaction). In the present report, we further elucidated the role of this PLC using a PIP2-specific PLC of bacterial origin. This PLC is different from the endogenous sperm PLC in that it is calcium independent and not inhibited by neomycin. Here we report using bovine sperm that this bacterial PLC can restore actin release from extracted membranes as well as membrane fusion in a cell-free assay when the endogenous PLC is inhibited by neomycin. The sperm PLC requires 2 microM calcium for half maximal activation, while half maximal actin release from extracted plasma membranes occurs at 80 microM. Extracted sperm membranes were examined for calcium pumps and channels. Sperm plasma membranes were found to possess a thapsigargin insensitive calcium pump and calcium channels which are opened by phosphorylation by protein kinase C. The acrosomal membrane possesses a calcium pump which is inhibited by thapsigargin and calcium channels which are opened by cAMP. These observations are discussed in terms of a model of acrosomal exocytosis which involves a calcium rise that occurs in two stages resulting from calcium mobilization from internal stores followed by influx of extracellular calcium.

Abstract
This study examines whether acidic, vacuolar-type, proton-pump-carrying organelles of insulin-secreting cells (clonal endocrine pancreatic cell line INS-1) function as rapidly exchanging, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-sensitive calcium stores. Calcium uptake into calcium stores will be modulated by the proton concentration within the stores, since calcium pumps in general appear to mediate a countertransport of calcium with protons. We therefore tested for sensitivity of calcium sequestration by nonmitochondrial stores (inhibition of mitochondrial calcium uptake by 2 microM ruthenium red) in saponin-permeabilized cells to proton-conducting ionophores and proton pump inhibition, using this as a marker for involvement of acidic organelles. Calcium sequestration was partially inhibited by the protonophores nigericin (10-50 microM) and carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP; 20-50 microM), as well as by inclusion of 30 mM NH4Cl. Bafilomycin A1, a potent and selective inhibitor of vacuolar-type proton pumps, alone (1 - 500 nM) had no effect on calcium sequestration. however, it induced an inhibitory effect in the presence of nigericin or CCCP, even at low concentrations (5 microM) of these ionophores, lacking itself an inhibitory action on calcium sequestration. Bafilomycin A1 then was already maximally active at a concentration as low as 10 nM. Corres ponding to inhibition of total nonmitochondrial calcium sequestration, filling of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-sensitive stores was decreased or even abolished by the protonophores alone or the protonophores combined with bafilomycin A1. We conclude that vacuolar-type proton pumps are present in at least a part of nonmitochondrial and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-sensitive calcium stores in INS-1 cells. This assigns these stores to organelles such as secretory granules, the trans Golgi network, or endosomes. Luminal acidity of these stores will stimulate calcium sequestration by providing more protons for countertransport of calcium by calcium pumps. High concentrations of protonophores may be required for inhibitory effects because otherwise the proton pumps may be able to compensate sufficiently for ionophore-mediated proton loss. The lack of effect of bafilomycin A1 without protonophores may be due to a sufficient luminal buffering capacity or to preceding inhibition of the pump by an inside-positive transmembrane potential.

Abstract
Store-dependent calcium entry represents a little characterized calcium permeation pathway that is present in a variety of cell types. It is activated in an unknown way by depletion of intracellular calcium stores, for example in the course of phospholipase C stimulation. Current hypotheses propose that depleted calcium stores signal their filling state to this permeation pathway either by direct, protein-mediated interaction or by release of a small, diffusible messenger. The further characterization of store-dependent calcium entry will benefit from progress in the identification of the intracellular calcium storing compartments. Recent findings reviewed here suggest that these compartments include parts of the organelle system that is involved in endo- and exocytosis. This commentary describes a novel model of store-dependent calcium entry based on calcium stores belonging to the endo- and exocytotic organelle system. Such calcium stores could establish a tubule-like connection with the extracellular space, in analogy to the cellular compartments that contain the insulin-sensitive glucose transporter or the gastric proton pump. This connection will provide a pathway for store-dependent calcium entry. Under store depletion, extracellular calcium will permeate through the tubule-like connection into the store lumen and from there into the cytosol. The consequences of this model for the development of drugs modulating store-dependent calcium entry are discussed.

Abstract
Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) plays an important role in the regulation of postprandial insulin secretion and proinsulin gene expression of pancreatic beta-cells. This study demonstrates the molecular cloning of a cDNA for the GIP-receptor from a human insulinoma lambda gt11 cDNA library. The cloned cDNA encoded a seven transmembrane domain protein of 466 amino acids which showed high homology (41%) to the human glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor. Homology to the GIP receptor from rat or hamster was 79% and 81%, respectively. When transfected stably into fibroblast CHL-cells a high affinity receptor was expressed which coupled to the adenylate cyclase with normal basal cAMP and increasing intracellular cAMP levels under stimulation with human GIP-1-42 (EC50 = 1.29 x 10(-13) M). The receptor accepted only human GIP 1-42 (Kd = 1.93 +/- 0.2 x 10(-8) M) and porcine truncated GIP 1-30 (Kd = 1.13 +/- 0.1 x 10(-8) M) as high affinity ligands. At 1 microM, exendin-4 and (9-39)amide weakly reduced GIP-binding (25%) whereas secretin, glucagon, glucagon-like peptide-1, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, peptide histidine-isoleucine, and pituitary adenylyl cyclase activating peptide were without effect. In transfected CHL cells, GIP-1-42 did not increase intracellular calcium. Northern analysis revealed one transcript of human GIP receptor mRNA with an apparent size of 5.5 kb. The exact understanding of GIP receptor regulation and signal transduction will aid in the understanding of the incretin hormone's failure to exert its biological action at the pancreatic B-cell in type II diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Cl- secretion in HT29 cells is regulated by agonists such as carbachol, neurotensin and adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP). These agonists induce Ca2+ store release as well as Ca2+ influx from the extracellular space. The increase in cytosolic Ca2+ enhances the Cl- and K+ conductances of these cells. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ strongly attenuates the secretory response to the above-mentioned agonists. The present study utilises patch-clamp methods to characterise the Ca2+ influx pathway. Inhibitors which have been shown previously to inhibit non-selective cation channels, such as flufenamate (0.1 mmol.l-1, n = 6) and Gd3+ (10 micromol.l-1, n=6) inhibited ATP (0.1 mmol.l-1) induced increases in whole-cell conductance (Gm). When Cl- and K+ currents were inhibited by the presence of Cs2SO4 in the patch pipette and gluconate in the bath, ATP (0.1 mmol.l-1) still induced a significant increase in Gm from 1.2 +/- 0.3 nS to 4.7 +/- 1 nS (n = 24). This suggests that ATP induces a cation influx with a conductance of approximately 3-4 nS. This cation influx was inhibited by flufenamate (0.1 mmol.l-1, n = 6) and Gd3+ (10 micromol.l-1, n = 9). When Ba2+ (5 mmol.l-1) and 4,4'-diisothiocyanato-stilbene-2-2'-disulphonic acid (DIDS, 0.1 mmol.l-1) were added to the KCl/K-gluconate pipette solution to inhibit K+ and Cl- currents and the cells were clamped to depolarised voltages, ATP (0.1 mmol.l-1) reduced the membrane current (Im) significantly from 86 +/- 14 pA to 54 +/- 11 pA (n = 13), unmasking a cation inward current. In another series, the cation inward current was activated by dialysing the cell with a KCl/K-gluconate solution containing 5-10 mmol.l-1 1,2-bis-(2-aminoethoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) or 1,2-bis-(2-aminophenoxy) ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (BAPTA). The zero-current membrane voltage (Vm) and Im (at a clamp voltage of +10 mV) were monitored as a function of time. A new steady-state was reached 30-120 s after membrane rupture. Vm depolarised significantly from -33 +/- 2 mV to -12 +/- 1 mV, and Im fell significantly from 17 +/- 2 pA to 8.9 +/- 1.0 pA (n = 71). This negative current, representing a cation inward current, was activated when Ca2+ stores were emptied and was reduced significantly ( Im) when Ca2+ and/or Na+ were removed from the bathing solution: removal of Ca2+ in the absence of Na+ caused a Im of 5.0 +/- 1.2 pA (n = 12); removal of Na+ in the absence of Ca2+ caused a Im of 12.8 +/- 3.5 pA (n = 4). The cation inward current was also reduced significantly by La3+, Gd3+, and flufenamate. We conclude that store depletion induces a Ca2+/Na+ influx current in these cells. With 145 mmol.l-1 Na+ and 1 mmol.l-1 Ca2+, both ions contribute to this cation inward current. This current is an important component in the agonist-regulated secretory response.

Abstract
The secretion of insulin by pancreatic beta-cells is controlled by synergistic interactions of glucose and hormones of the glucagon-related peptide family, of which pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a member. Here we show by simultaneous recording of intracellular calcium ion ([Ca2+]i) and membrane potential that both PACAP-27 and PACAP-38 depolarize HIT-T15 cells and raise [Ca2+]i. PACAP stimulation can result in membrane depolarization by two distinct mechanisms: 1) PACAP reduces the membrane conductance and increases membrane excitability; and 2) PACAP activates a pronounced inward current that is predominantly a Na+ current, blockade by La3+, and which exhibits a reversal potential of about -28 mV. Activation of this current does not require membrane depolarization, because the response is observed when cells are held under voltage clamp at -70 mV. This current may result from the cAMP-dependent activation of nonspecific cation channels because the current is also observed in response to forskolin or membrane-permeant analogs of cAMP. We also suggest that PACAP raises [Ca2+]i and stimulates insulin secretion by three distinct mechanisms: 1) depolarization activates Ca2+ influx through L-type voltage-dependent calcium channels, 2) mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ stores, and 3) entry of Ca2+ via voltage-independent Ca2+ channels. These effects of PACAP may play an important role in a neuro-entero-endocrine loop regulating insulin secretion from pancreatic beta-cells during the transition period from fasting to feeding.

Abstract
Spatiotemporal Ca2+ signalling in the cytoplasm is currently understood as an excitation phenomenon by analogy with electrical excitation in the plasma membrane. In many cell types, Ca2+ waves and Ca2+ oscillations are mediated by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptor/Ca2+ channels in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, with positive feedback between cytosolic Ca2+ and IP3-induced Ca2+ release creating a regenerative process. Remarkable advances have been made in the past year in the analysis of subcellular Ca2+ microdomains using confocal microscopy and of Ca2+ influx pathways that are functionally coupled to IP3-induced Ca2+ release. Ca2+ signals can be conveyed into the nucleus and mitochondria. Ca2+ entry from outside the cell allows repetitive Ca2+ release by providing Ca2+ to refill the endoplasmic reticulum stores, thus giving rise to frequency-encoded Ca2+ signals.

Abstract
Tissue factor (TF) is the most potent trigger of blood clotting known. It activates factor VII (FVII) thereby initiating a cascade of proteolytic reactions resulting in thrombin production. The cloning of TF revealed its structural characteristics to be those of a receptor related to the class 2 cytokine receptor superfamily, but until now no intracellular signal has been discovered related to binding of the ligand (FVIIa) to the putative receptor. We have studied possible intracellular signaling effects of the FVIIa-TF interaction by measuring cytosolic free Ca2+ in single fura-2-loaded cells and found that 200 nM FVIIa caused Ca2+ transients in about 30% of human umbilical vein endothelial cells treated with interleukin-1 beta to express TF, compared to below 5% in uninduced cells. A gradual increase of the basal Ca2+ level was also caused by binding of FVIIa. In the human bladder carcinoma cell line J82, which has a high constitutive TF activity, similar results were found. An antibody neutralizing TF activity decreased the response rate to control levels. COS-1 cells which do not make TF did not respond to FVIIa as opposed to COS-1 cells expressing TF after transfection with a human TF cDNA construct. The canine kidney cell line MDCK, a constitutive TF producer, responded especially well; up to 100% of the cells examined showed Ca2+ oscillations which were dose dependent with regard to frequency, latency, maximal amplitude, and recruitment of responding cells. The frequency was reduced by inhibition of Ca2+ influx with 100 microM LaCl3. In confluent MDCK cells the Ca2+ oscillations were synchronous, constituting the first evidence of a synchronous cytosolic Ca2+ oscillator generated by global application of agonist. Thus, TF mediates a cytosolic Ca2+ signal upon interaction with its ligand FVIIa, thereby suggesting a more complex biological role for TF.

Abstract
Glioma C6 cells treated with 12-0-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate, TPA (10 nM and 100 nM) manifested slow increase in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i), dependent upon both Ca2+ release from intracellular stores and Ca2+ entry, and ranging from 50 to 500 nM in different cells. The effect of TPA was abolished by the down-regulation procedure and by protein kinase C inhibitors, such as staurosporine (100 nM), suramin (100 microM), and sphingosine (100 microM), pointing to a role of protein kinase C (PKC) in this process. On the other hand, thapsigargin (100 nM), a selective inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase, produced a rapid increase in [Ca2+]i (up to 800 nM). This increase consisted of a transient initial phase followed by sustained elevation in [Ca2+]i, typical of Ca2+ release from intracellular stores and of Ca2+ entry, respectively. However, when the cells were exposed to TPA (100 nM) prior to thapsigargin (100 nM), then thapsigargin produced only a transient rise in [Ca2+]i. We suggest that TPA, a PKC activator, affects thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ entry, probably by PKC-mediated changes in cytoskeleton structures.

Abstract
GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide 1 (7-36) amide) plays an important role in the regulation of insulin secretion and proinsulin gene expression of pancreatic beta-cells. Patients with insulinoma tumors show uncontrolled insulin hypersecretion. This study demonstrates the molecular cloning of a cDNA for the GLP-1 receptor from a human insulinoma employing a lambda-gt11 cDNA library. The cloned cDNA encoded a seven transmembrane domain protein of 463 amino acids which showed high homology to the GLP-1 receptor in normal human pancreas. Four amino acid exchanges were found in comparison to a receptor sequence obtained from regular pancreatic islets. When transfected transiently into COS-7 or stably into fibroblast CHL cells a high affinity receptor was expressed which coupled to the adenylate cyclase with normal basal cAMP and increasing intracellular cAMP levels under GLP-1 stimulation. The receptor accepted GLP-1 and the non-mammalian agonist exendin-4 as high affinity ligands. In transfected COS-7 cells, GLP-1 did not influence intracellular calcium, whereas in the stably transfected fibroblasts GLP-1 transiently increased intracellular calcium to a small extent. The understanding of GLP-1 receptor regulation and signal transduction will aid in the discovery of compounds that act as agonists of the GLP-1 receptor for potential use in the treatment of diabetes and will facilitate the understanding of its expression under normal and pathophysiological conditions.
