IF1 ablation prevents ATP synthase oligomerization, enhances mitochondrial ATP turnover and promotes an adenosine-mediated pro-inflammatory phenotype. Cell Death Dis 2023; 14:413. [PMID: 37433784 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-023-05957-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2023] [Revised: 06/07/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/13/2023]
Abstract
ATPase Inhibitory Factor 1 (IF1) regulates the activity of mitochondrial ATP synthase. The expression of IF1 in differentiated human and mouse cells is highly variable. In intestinal cells, the overexpression of IF1 protects against colon inflammation. Herein, we have developed a conditional IF1-knockout mouse model in intestinal epithelium to investigate the role of IF1 in mitochondrial function and tissue homeostasis. The results show that IF1-ablated mice have increased ATP synthase/hydrolase activities, leading to profound mitochondrial dysfunction and a pro-inflammatory phenotype that impairs the permeability of the intestinal barrier compromising mouse survival upon inflammation. Deletion of IF1 prevents the formation of oligomeric assemblies of ATP synthase and alters cristae structure and the electron transport chain. Moreover, lack of IF1 promotes an intramitochondrial Ca2+ overload in vivo, minimizing the threshold to Ca2+-induced permeability transition (mPT). Removal of IF1 in cell lines also prevents the formation of oligomeric assemblies of ATP synthase, minimizing the threshold to Ca2+-induced mPT. Metabolomic analyses of mice serum and colon tissue highlight that IF1 ablation promotes the activation of de novo purine and salvage pathways. Mechanistically, lack of IF1 in cell lines increases ATP synthase/hydrolase activities and installs futile ATP hydrolysis in mitochondria, resulting in the activation of purine metabolism and in the accumulation of adenosine, both in culture medium and in mice serum. Adenosine, through ADORA2B receptors, promotes an autoimmune phenotype in mice, stressing the role of the IF1/ATP synthase axis in tissue immune responses. Overall, the results highlight that IF1 is required for ATP synthase oligomerization and that it acts as a brake to prevent ATP hydrolysis under in vivo phosphorylating conditions in intestinal cells.

Abstract
Besides being the main neurotransmitter in the parasympathetic nervous system, acetylcholine (ACh) can act as a signaling molecule in nonneuronal tissues. For this reason, ACh and the enzymes that synthesize and degrade it (choline acetyltransferase and acetylcholinesterase) as well as muscarinic (mAChRs) and nicotinic receptors conform the non-neuronal cholinergic system (nNCS). It has been reported that nNCS regulates basal cellular functions including survival, proliferation, adhesion, and migration. Moreover, nNCS is broadly expressed in tumors and in different components of the immune system. In this review, we summarize the role of nNCS in tumors and in different immune cell types focusing on the expression and function of mAChRs in breast tumors and dendritic cells (DCs) and discussing the role of DCs in breast cancer.

Abstract
Use of Fura-2 in whole cell suspensions to measure changes in intracellular Ca(2+) is probably one of the simplest, yet most widely used protocols described in this volume. Whole cell suspensions are loaded with Fura-2 and then placed into a cuvette-based fluorimetric system (measuring 510 nm emission at alternating 340/340 nm excitation). Cells can be stimulated with agonists and antagonists to enable temporal response profiling and concentration-response curves to be constructed. The protocol can be used for a wide range of cells including those transfected with Ca(2+)-signaling proteins, e.g., receptors and channels. Loading characteristics and the need for agents to retain loaded dye (e.g., probenecid) need to be determined empirically. Calibration of whole cell suspensions to convert the fluorescent signal into Ca(2+) is simply performed using Triton-X lysis (to determine R (max)) and EGTA chelation (to determine R (min)).

Abstract
The simple polyol, myo-inositol, is used as a building block of a cellular language that plays various roles in signal transduction. This review describes the terminology used to denote myo-inositol-containing molecules, with an emphasis on how phosphate and fatty acids are added to create second messengers used in signaling. Work in model systems has delineated the genes and enzymes required for synthesis and metabolism of many myo-inositol-containing molecules, with genetic mutants and measurement of second messengers playing key roles in developing our understanding. There is increasing evidence that molecules such as myo- inositol(1,4,5)trisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate are synthesized in response to various signals plants encounter. In particular, the controversial role of myo-inositol(1,4,5)trisphosphate is addressed, accompanied by a discussion of the multiple enzymes that act to regulate this molecule. We are also beginning to understand new connections of myo-inositol signaling in plants. These recent discoveries include the novel roles of inositol phosphates in binding to plant hormone receptors and that of phosphatidylinositol(3)phosphate binding to pathogen effectors.

Abstract
Methylmercury (MeHg) is an important environmental neurotoxicant that is present in seafood and affects the developing and mature nervous system. The neurotoxicity induced by MeHg is a concern, particularly for fish-eating populations and pregnant or nursing women. During MeHg-induced neurotoxicity, degeneration of the granule cell layer in the cerebellum occurs, which leads to deficits in motor function. I suggest that the action of MeHg on specific neurotransmitter receptors contributes to the selective vulnerability of granule cells. MeHg appears to stimulate M(3) muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and to inhibit GABA(A) receptor subtypes preferentially on cerebellar granule cells. This could lead to the loss of tonic inhibition of granule cells as a result of antagonism of GABA(A) receptors, and a M(3)-receptor-mediated increase in the intracellular concentration of Ca(2+) and block of a K(+)-dependent leak current. The net result would be increased spontaneous release of glutamate, which, coupled with a MeHg-induced impairment of glutamate uptake by astrocytes, could cause Ca(2+)-mediated cytotoxicity.

Abstract
In culture, cerebellar granule neurons die of apoptosis in serum-free media containing a physiologic level of K(+) but survive in a depolarizing concentration of K(+) or when insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) is added. Both Akt/PKB activation and caspase-3 inhibition were implicated as the underlying neuroprotective mechanisms. The duration of high K(+), however, induced survival effects that outlasted its transient activation of Akt, and granule neurons derived from caspase-3 knockout mice died to the same extent as did those from wild-type mice, suggesting that additional mechanisms are involved. To delineate these survival mechanisms, we compared the activities of two major survival pathways after high K(+)-induced depolarization or IGF-1 stimulation. Although IGF-1 promoted neuronal survival by activating its tyrosine kinase receptor, high K(+) depolarization provided the same effect by increasing the Ca(2+) influx through the L Ca(2+) channel. Moreover, high K(+)-induced depolarization resulted in sustained activation of MAP kinase, whereas IGF-1 activated Akt in 4 hr. Inhibition of MEK (MAP kinase kinase) by either PD98059 or UO126 abolished the protective effect of high K(+)-induced depolarization, but not that of IGF-1, suggesting that activation of the MAP kinase pathway is necessary for high K(+) neuroprotective effects. We demonstrated also that high K(+)-induced depolarization, but not IGF-1, increased phosphorylation of cAMP-response element-binding protein (CREB) and protein synthesis, both of which can be blocked by UO126. Overall, our findings suggested that high K(+)-induced depolarization, unlike IGF-1, promoted neuronal survival via activating MAP kinase, possibly by increasing CREB-dependent transcriptional activation of specific proteins that promote neuronal survival.

Abstract
Evidence from the last several decades indicates that the excitatory amino acid glutamate plays a significant role in nociceptive processing. Glutamate and glutamate receptors are located in areas of the brain, spinal cord and periphery that are involved in pain sensation and transmission. Glutamate acts at several types of receptors, including ionotropic (directly coupled to ion channels) and metabotropic (directly coupled to intracellular second messengers). Ionotropic receptors include those selectively activated by N-methyl-D-aspartate, alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid and kainate. Metabotropic glutamate receptors are classified into 3 groups based on sequence homology, signal transduction mechanisms and receptor pharmacology. Glutamate also interacts with the opioid system, and intrathecal or systemic coadministration of glutamate receptor antagonists with opioids may enhance analgesia while reducing the development of opioid tolerance and dependence. The actions of glutamate in the brain seem to be more complex. Activation of glutamate receptors in some brain areas seems to be pronociceptive (e.g. thalamus, trigeminal nucleus), although activation of glutamate receptors in other brain areas seems to be antinociceptive (e.g. periaqueductal grey, ventrolateral medulla). Application of glutamate, or agonists selective for one of the several types of glutamate receptor, to the spinal cord or periphery induces nociceptive behaviours. Inhibition of glutamate release, or of glutamate receptors, in the spinal cord or periphery attenuates both acute and chronic pain in animal models. Similar benefits have been seen in studies involving humans (both patients and volunteers); however, results have been inconsistent. More research is needed to clearly define the role of existing treatment options and explore the possibilities for future drug development.

Abstract
The pungent sesquiterpenoid unsaturated dialdehydes polygodial and isovelleral, have previously been shown to increase the intracellular free calcium concentration [Ca2+]i in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells, partly by a release from intracellular Ca2+ stores, whereas the non-pungent compound epipolygodial, had no effect on the [Ca2+]i. In this study, we investigated the effect of isovelleral, polygodial and epipolygodial on inositol phosphate (IP) formation on the assumption that there might be a correlation between the release of intracellular Ca2+ and pungency of the compounds. It was found that polygodial induced IP mobilization in a concentration dependent way, whereas isovelleral had no effect on the IP formation in the SH-SY5Y cells. Phosphoinositide (PPI) turnover was activated by epipolygodial, but only at concentrations 40-fold higher than for polygodial, which emphasizes the importance of the correct stereometry in the dialdehyde configuration for the biological activity of polygodial. The polygodial-induced formation of IP1 was reduced by 71% under extracellular calcium-free conditions, which suggests feedback interactions between the IP formation and the increase in [Ca2+]i to account for a periodic activation of phospholipase C(PLC).

Abstract
Adenylyl cyclase exists as a family of closely related subtypes which differ in their tissue distribution and regulatory properties. Submicromolar rises in [Ca2+]i produced via activation of phospholipase C (PLC) or Ca2+ channel opening, provide a mechanism by which Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM) or protein kinase C (PKC)-sensitive isoforms of adenylyl cyclase can be regulated. In this study we have examined, in detail, the muscarinic (M3) regulation of adenylyl cyclase in SH-SY5Y cells and report a role for both [Ca2+]e and [Ca2+]i. Carbachol (1 mM) and potassium (100 mM) caused a time (T1/2 = 3 and 4 min, respectively) and dose (EC50 = 6.95 microM and 34.7 mM respectively) related increase in cAMP formation. This amounted to an approximate two-fold increase over basal levels. Carbachol and potassium also caused a biphasic increase in [Ca2+]i with basal, peak and plateau values of 118.4 nM, 697.6 nM, 253.0 nM and 104.0 nM, 351.6 nM, 181.5 nM, respectively. Calcium channel blockade with nickel (2.5 mM) abolished potassium-stimulated cAMP formation and rises in [Ca2+]i. However, carbachol-stimulated cAMP formation was significantly decreased only at the later time points, where rises in [Ca2+]i were also essentially abolished. Further evidence for a role for [Ca2+]e and [Ca2+]i is provided by the stimulation of cAMP formation by carbachol in the absence of added Ca2+, followed by a further increase on its re-addition. Carbachol- and potassium-stimulated cAMP formation were inhibited by the CaM antagonist trifluoperazine (100 microM). The mu-opiate agonists, morphine and fentanyl also inhibited carbachol-stimulated cAMP formation. In addition, cAMP formation in SH-SY5Y cell membranes was significantly increased in the presence of Ca2+ (1.46 microM), CaM (200 nM) and forskolin (1 microM). PKC inhibition with Ro 31 8220 did not affect carbachol-stimulated cAMP formation. Taken collectively, these data suggest that SH-SY5Y cells express type 1, and possibly type 8 isoforms of adenylyl cyclase, which can be regulated by intra- and extracellular Ca2+.

Abstract
Previous reports from our laboratory have suggested that the neuroactivity of some polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners is associated with perturbations in cellular Ca(2+)-homeostasis. We have characterized further the neurochemical effects of PCBs on signal transduction in primary cultures of cerebellar granule cells. The present experiments found that neither 2,2'-dichlorobiphenyl (DCBP), an ortho-substituted congener, nor 3,3',4,4',5-pentachlorobiphenyl (PCBP), a non-ortho-substituted congener, affected basal phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis in cerebellar granule cells. However, at concentrations up to 50 microM, DCBP potentiated carbachol-stimulated PI hydrolysis, while decreasing it at 100 microM. PCBP, on the other hand, had no effect on carbachol-stimulated PI hydrolysis in concentrations up to 100 microM. [3H]Phorbol ester ([3H]PDBu) binding was used to determine protein kinase C (PKC) translocation. DCBP increased [3H]PDBu binding in a concentration-dependent manner and a twofold increase was observed at 100 microM in cerebellar granule cells. PCBP had no effect on [3H]PDBu binding at concentrations up to 100 microM. The effect of DCBP on [3H]PDBu binding was time-dependent and was also dependent on the presence of external Ca2+ in the medium. To test the hypothesis that DCBP increases [3H]PDBu binding by acting on receptor-activated calcium channels, the effects of DCBP were compared to those of L-glutamate. The effects of DCBP (50 microM) and glutamate (20 microM) were additive.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Human neuroblastoma cells (line SH-SY5Y) were used to examine the interaction of single exposure to organophosphorus compounds (OPs) with muscarinic receptors. In this study, SH-SY5Y cells were exposed for 30 min to concentrations of paraoxon, diisopropyl phosphorofluoridate (DFP), phenyl saligenin cyclic phosphate (PSP), and mipafox (N,N'-diisopropyl phosphorodiamide fluoridate) that ranged between 10(-9) M and 10(-3) M (10(-2) M for mipafox). Ability to interfere with muscarinic receptor binding was determined by change in the binding of the nonspecific antagonist [3H]-N-methylscopolamine (3H-NMS). Concentrations of paraoxon > 0.5 x 10(-3) M and PSP 1 x 10(-3) M significantly inhibited the binding of a saturating concentration of 3H-NMS. Concentrations of > 10(-5) M paraoxon or PSP could significantly inhibit the binding of a half-saturating concentration of 3H-NMS. Studies using specific antagonists for muscarinic subtypes (pirenzepine for M1, AFDX-116 for M2, and 4-DAMP for M3) indicated that SH-SY5Y cells have muscarinic receptors most sensitive to the specific antagonist for the M3 subtype (IC50 of 10(-8) M for 4-DAMP compared to 2.5 x 10(-6) M and 2.7 x 10(-5) M for pirenzepine and AFDX-116, respectively). As M3 receptor stimulation results in formation of inositol phosphates from membrane phosphoinositides the capability of OPs to alter levels of inositol phosphates and agonist-stimulated increases in inositol phosphate formation was examined. Intact cells were prelabeled with [3H]myo-inositol and then incubated for 15 min with the OPs before addition of 10(-5) M to 10(-3) M carbachol. Levels of inositol phosphates were determined as the amount of aqueous soluble radiolabeled product extracted from the reaction mixture. Paraoxon and PSP, but not mipafox or DFP, decreased basal levels of inositol phosphates in a concentration-related manner. This could be overcome in cells stimulated with carbachol, a muscarinic agonist, and with sodium fluoride, which does not act at muscarinic receptors. These results indicate that certain OPs, upon acute exposure, interact with muscarinic receptors, but that they also have effects on levels of inositol phosphates that may be associated with another site of action in SH-SY5Y cells.

Abstract
Many neurotransmitters and neuropeptides can affect the rodent feminine sexual behavior, lordosis, when administered in the ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH), midbrain central gray (MCG), or other brain regions. A survey of the electrophysiological and biochemical actions of these neural agents revealed that there is a very consistent association between lordosis facilitation with both the activation of the phosphoinositide (PI) pathway and the excitation of VMH and MCG neurons. In contrast, lordosis inhibition is associated, less consistently, with alterations of the adenylate cyclase (AC) system and the inhibition of neuronal activity. The findings that lordosis could be facilitated by going beyond membrane receptors and directly activating the PI pathway, suggest that this second-messenger pathway is a common mediator for the lordosis-facilitating agents. Furthermore, as in the case of stimulating membrane receptors, direct activation of this common mediator also requires estrogen priming for lordosis facilitation. Therefore, it is likely that the PI pathway is modulated by estrogen in the permissive action of estrogen priming. Indeed, a literature review shows that estrogen can affect selective isozymes of key enzyme families of the PI pathway at various levels. Such selective modulations, at several levels, could easily alter the course of a PI cascade; thence, the eventual functional outcome. These findings prompt us to propose that estrogen enables lordosis to be facilitated by a selective modulation of the PI pathway.

Abstract
The cellular mechanisms underlying the clinical effects of volatile anaesthetics remain unknown, although the plasma membrane and its associated proteins are likely targets. One such protein is the enzyme phospholipase C (PLC), which catalyses the formation of the second messenger inositol(1,4,5)triphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3]. Using SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells we have demonstrated that halothane (0.50, 0.75 and 1.00%) enhances basal Ins(1,4,5)P3 mass formation approximately 1.8-fold. Halothane also caused a dose-dependent enhancement of carbachol-stimulated biphasic Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation at both the peak (half-maximal stimulation, EC50 = 0.76%) and plateau (EC50 = 0.74%) phases. At 1%, halothane did not alter the affinity for carbachol at either the peak (IC50: air = 9.4 +/- 1.5, halothane = 12.7 +/- 1.0 microM) or plateau (EC50: air = 11.7 +/- 1.2, halothane = 11.6 +/- 1.0 microM) phase, but did increase the maximum Ins(1,4,5)P3 response at both phases (air vs halothane: peak, 79.9 +/- 0.5 vs 124.8 +/- 2.5; plateau, 33.2 +/- 0.5 vs 47.9 +/- 0.6 pmol/mg protein). Isoflurane (2%) also enhanced basal and carbachol-stimulated Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation 2-fold and 1.5-fold, respectively. In summary, clinically relevant doses of the volatile anaesthetics halothane and isoflurane enhance basal and carbachol-stimulated Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation. Thus, activation of PLC, and subsequent potential Ins(1,4,5)P3-mediated rises in intracellular calcium, could play a part in the cellular mechanisms of volatile agent-induced anaesthesia.

Abstract
At least five muscarinic receptor genes have been cloned and expressed. Muscarinic receptors act via activation of G proteins: m1, m3 and m5 muscarinic receptors couple to stimulate phospholipase C, while m2 and m4 muscarinic receptors inhibit adenylyl cyclase. This review describes the localization, pharmacology and function of the five muscarinic receptor subtypes. The actions of muscarinic receptors on the heart, smooth muscle, glands and on neurons (both presynaptic and postsynaptic) in the autonomic nervous system and the central nervous system are analyzed in terms of subtypes, biochemical mechanisms and effects on ion channels, including K+ channels and Ca2+ channels.
