Evidence That Calcium Entry Into Calcium-Transporting Dental Enamel Cells Is Regulated by Cholecystokinin, Acetylcholine and ATP. Front Physiol 2018; 9:801.

Abstract
Dental enamel is formed by specialized epithelial cells which handle large quantities of Ca2+ while producing the most highly mineralized tissue. However, the mechanisms used by enamel cells to handle bulk Ca2+ safely remain unclear. Our previous work contradicted the dogma that Ca2+ is ferried through the cytosol of Ca2+-transporting cells and instead suggested an organelle-based route across enamel cells. This new paradigm involves endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated Ca2+ stores and their concomitant refilling by store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) mediated by Ca2+ release activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels. Given that Ca2+ handling is maximal during the enamel-mineralization stage (maturation), we anticipated that SOCE would also be elevated then. Confirmation was obtained here using single-cell recordings of cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]cyt) in rat ameloblasts. A candidate SOCE agonist, cholecystokinin (CCK), was found to be upregulated during maturation, with Cck transcript abundance reaching 30% of that in brain. CCK-receptor transcripts were also detected and Ca2+ imaging showed that CCK stimulation increased [Ca2+]cyt in a dose-responsive manner that was sensitive to CRAC-channel inhibitors. Similar effects were observed with two other SOCE activators, acetylcholine and ATP, whose receptors were also found in enamel cells. These results provide the first evidence of a potential regulatory system for SOCE in enamel cells and so strengthen the Ca2+ transcytosis paradigm for ER-based transport of bulk Ca2+. Our findings also implicate enamel cells as a new physiological target of CCK and raise the possibility of an auto/paracrine system for regulating Ca2+ transport.

Abstract
Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a gastrointestinal hormone, which regulates many physiological functions such as satiety by binding to the CCK receptor (CCKR). Molecules, which recognize this receptor can mimic or block CCK signaling and thereby influence CCKR-mediated processes. We have set up a quantitative heterologous assay with CHO cells over-expressing the rat CCK1 receptor to screen for such candidate molecules. Receptor activation, induced by agonist binding, is followed by an intracellular calcium increase, which was monitored using a fluorescent sensor dye. For quantification of the calcium increase, a population average technique using a fluorescence plate reader was optimized and subsequently compared with a single-cell approach using confocal microscopy. With both strategies, dose-response curves were generated for the natural agonist CCK-8S, the partial agonist JMV-180 as well as the antagonist lorglumide. Significant differences were found between the ligands and a strong correspondence was observed between both methods in terms of maximum response and median effect concentrations. Both highly sensitive methods proved complementary: whereas the plate reader assay allowed faster, high throughput screening, the confocal microscopy identified single-cell variations and revealed factors that reduce specificity and sensitivity.

Abstract
Cholinergic agonists are major stimuli for fluid secretion in parotid acinar cells. Saliva bicarbonate is essential for maintaining oral health. Electrogenic and electroneutral Na(+)-HCO(3)(-) cotransporters (NBCe1 and NBCn1) are abundant in parotid glands. We previously reported that angiotensin regulates NBCe1 by endocytosis in Xenopus oocytes. Here, we studied cholinergic regulation of NBCe1 and NBCn1 membrane trafficking by confocal fluorescent microscopy and surface biotinylation in parotid epithelial cells. NBCe1 and NBCn1 colocalized with E-cadherin monoclonal antibody at the basolateral membrane (BLM) in polarized ParC5 cells. Inhibition of constitutive recycling with the carboxylic ionophore monensin or the calmodulin antagonist W-13 caused NBCe1 to accumulate in early endosomes with a parallel loss from the BLM, suggesting that NBCe1 is constitutively endocytosed. Carbachol and PMA likewise caused redistribution of NBCe1 from BLM to early endosomes. The PKC inhibitor, GF-109203X, blocked this redistribution, indicating a role for PKC. In contrast, BLM NBCn1 was not downregulated in parotid acinar cells treated with constitutive recycling inhibitors, cholinergic stimulators, or PMA. We likewise demonstrate striking differences in regulation of membrane trafficking of NBCe1 vs. NBCn1 in resting and stimulated cells. We speculate that endocytosis of NBCe1, which coincides with the transition to a steady-state phase of stimulated fluid secretion, could be a part of acinar cell adjustment to a continuous secretory response. Stable association of NBCn1 at the membrane may facilitate constitutive uptake of HCO(3)(-) across the BLM, thus supporting HCO(3)(-) luminal secretion and/or maintaining acid-base homeostasis in stimulated cells.

Abstract
The field of cholecystokinin (CCK) stimulation of exocrine pancreatic secretion has experienced major changes in the recent past. This review attempts to summarize the present status of the field. CCK production in the intestinal I cells, the molecular forms of CCK produced and subsequently circulated in the blood, the presence or absence of CCK receptors on the isolated pancreatic acinar cells and the associated signaling for acinar cell secretion, and the actual circuits and sites of action for CCK regulation of exocrine pancreatic secretion in vivo are reviewed in different animal species with an emphasis on birds, rodents, and humans. Clear differences in the relative importance of neural and direct modes of CCK action on pancreatic acinar cells were identified. Rodents seem to be endowed with both modes of action, whereas in humans the neural mode may predominate. In birds, such as duck, the direct mode needs further assistance from pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide/VIP receptors. However, much further work needs to be directed to the neural mode to map out all sites of CCK action and details of the full circuits, and we foresee a major revival for this field of research in the near future.

Abstract
Imaging fluorescent measurements with fura 2 were used to examine cytosolic calcium signals induced by sulfated CCK octapeptide (CCK-8) in dissociated vagal afferent neurons from adult rat nodose ganglia. We found that 40% (184/465) of the neurons responded to CCK-8 with a transient increase in cytosolic calcium. The threshold concentration of CCK-8 for inducing the response varied from 0.01 to 100 nM. In most neurons (13/16) the response was eliminated by removing extracellular calcium. Depleting intracellular calcium stores with thapsigargin slightly augmented the response. Most neurons were unresponsive to nonsulfated CCK-8. The response was eliminated by the CCK-A receptor antagonist lorglumide. Low concentrations of JMV-180 had no effect; however, high concentrations of JMV-180 reduced responses to CCK-8. These results demonstrate that CCK acts at the low-affinity site of the CCK-A receptor to trigger the entry of extracellular calcium into vagal afferent neurons. Increased cytosolic calcium may participate in acute activation of vagal afferent neurons, or it may initiate long-term changes, which modulate future neuronal responses to sensory stimuli.

Abstract
Partial agonists are effective tools for advancing development of highly selective drugs and providing insights into molecular regulation of cellular functions. Here, we explore the impact of a partial agonist on key aspects of cholecystokinin (CCK) receptor regulation, its lateral mobility and cellular trafficking, in native pancreatic acinar cells and Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing CCK receptor (CHO-CCKR). We developed and characterized a novel fluorescent partial agonist, rhodamine-Gly-[(Nle28, 31)CCK-26-32]-phenethyl ester, that binds specifically and with high affinity to CCK receptors. Such analogs are fully efficacious pancreatic acinar cell secretagogues without supramaximal inhibition that mobilize intracellular calcium with little or no increase in phospholipase C (PLC) activity. Despite minimal phosphorylation of CCK receptors in response to this partial agonist, receptor trafficking was the same as that observed with full agonist (CCK). This included normal internalization via clathrin-dependent endocytosis in CHO-CCKR cells and insulation on the surface of pancreatic acinar cells. Also, as with CCK-occupied receptor, fluorescence recovery after photobleaching of partial agonist-occupied receptor on the acinar cell surface demonstrated a marked temperature-dependent slowing of its rate of diffusion. This was similarly associated with resistance to acid-induced dissociation of ligand. Thus some key molecular regulatory mechanisms for CCK receptor internalization and insulation may be initiated by cellular signaling cascades that are not dependent on PLC activation or receptor phosphorylation.

Abstract
This review evaluates the various lines of evidence supporting the hypothesis that cholecystokinin (CCK) released from the small intestine during feeding plays a physiological satiety. Issues considered include, the effects of systemic injection of CCK on consummatory and operant feeding, the role of the vagus nerve, the effects of CCKB receptor antagonists, and the neuroendocrine responses to exogenous CCK. A critical appraisal of this research indicates that while it is clearly demonstratable that exogenous peripheral CCK can alter food intake by acting on CCKA receptors, the mechanism involved may be more closely related to the induction if aversion and nausea, rather than satiety. With regard to peripheral endogenous CCK, the available evidence also does not seem to support a role for the hormone in satiety. In particular, it is doubtful whether plasma concentrations of CCK following a meal are sufficiently high to inhibit feeding. Moreover, CCKA receptor antagonist which do not cross the blood brain barrier fail to increase meal size, as would be expected if peripheral CCK was an effective satiety factor. In addition, the recent literature concerned with the possibility that CCK may have a direct action within the brain in the control of food intake has been reviewed. These studies show that CCK administered intracerebroventicularly, or by micoinjection into discrete brain regions, also inhibits feeding via a CCKA receptor mechanism. However, the physiological relevance of these findings have yet to be determined.
