Abstract
[Ca2+]i oscillations drive downstream events, like transcription, in a frequency-dependent manner. Why [Ca2+]i oscillation frequency regulates transcription has not been clearly revealed. A variation in [Ca2+]i oscillation frequency apparently leads to a variation in the time duration of cumulated [Ca2+]i elevations or cumulated [Ca2+]i spike duration. By manipulating [Ca2+]i spike duration, we generated a series of [Ca2+]i oscillations with the same frequency but different cumulated [Ca2+]i spike durations, as well as [Ca2+]i oscillations with the different frequencies but the same cumulated [Ca2+]i spike duration. Molecular assays demonstrated that, when generated in ‘artificial’ models alone, under physiologically simulated conditions or repetitive pulses of agonist exposure, [Ca2+]i oscillation regulates NFκB transcriptional activity, phosphorylation of IκBα and Ca2+-dependent gene expression all in a way actually dependent on cumulated [Ca2+]i spike duration whether or not frequency varies. This study underlines that [Ca2+]i oscillation frequency regulates NFκB transcriptional activity through cumulated [Ca2+]i spike-duration-mediated IκBα phosphorylation.

Abstract
Glial and glia-derived cells express a variety of receptors for neurotransmitters and hormones, the majority of which evoke both Ca(2+) release from intracellular stores and Ca(2+) entry across the plasma membrane. We investigated the links between histamine H(1) receptor activation, Ca(2+) release from intracellular stores and Ca(2+) influx in human astrocytoma U373 MG cells. Histamine, through a H(1) receptor-mediated effect, evoked an increase in cytoplasmic free calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) that occurred in two phases: an initial, transient, increase owing to Ca(2+) mobilization from intracellular pools, and a second, sustained increase dependent on both Ca(2+) influx and continuous receptor occupancy. The characteristics of histamine-induced increases in [Ca(2+)](i) were similar to the capacitative entry evoked by emptying of the Ca(2+) stores with thapsigargine, and different from that observed when Ca(2+) influx was activated with OAG (1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol), a diacylglycerol (DAG) analog. OAG application or increased endogenous DAG, resulting from DAG kinase inhibition, reduced the histamine-induced response. Furthermore, activation of the DAG target, protein kinase C (PKC), by TPA (12-O-tetradecanoyl 4beta-phorbol 13alpha-acetate) resulted in inhibition of the histamine-induced Ca(2+) response, an action prevented by PKC inhibitors. By using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction analysis, mRNAs for transient receptor potential channels (TRPCs) 1, 4, and 6 as well as for STIM1 (stromal-interacting molecule) and Orai1 were found to be expressed in the U373 MG cells, and confocal microscopy using specific antibodies revealed the presence of the corresponding proteins. Therefore, TRPCs may be candidate proteins forming store-operated channels in the U373 MG cell line. Further, our results confirm the involvement of PKC in the regulation of H(1) receptor-induced responses and point out to the existence of a feedback mechanism acting via PKC to limit the increase in [Ca(2+)](i).

Abstract
The adrenal chromaffin cells synthesize and release catecholamine (mostly epinephrine and norepinephrine) and different peptides, such as the neuropeptide Y (NPY). NPY stimulates catecholamine release through NPY Y1 receptor in mouse chromaffin cells. The aim of our study was to determine the intracellular signaling events coupled to NPY Y1 receptor activation that lead to stimulation of catecholamine release from mouse chromaffin cells. The stimulatory effect of NPY mediated by NPY Y1 receptor activation was lost in the absence of extracellular Ca2+. On the other hand, inhibition of nitric oxide synthase and guanylyl cyclase also decreased the stimulatory effect of NPY. Moreover, catecholamine release stimulated by NPY or by the nitric oxide donor (NOC-18) was inhibited by mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and protein kinase C inhibitors. In summary, in mouse chromaffin cells, NPY evokes catecholamine release by the activation the NPY Y1 receptor, in a Ca2+-dependent manner, by activating mitogen-activated protein kinase and promoting nitric oxide production, which in turn regulates protein kinase C and guanylyl cyclase activation.

Abstract
Histamine-induced contraction and its potentiation by neuropeptide Y were investigated in rat blood vessels. Rat arteries and veins constricted with single concentrations of histamine dose-dependently (0.1-100 microM). This histamine-induced contraction immediately desensitized. Histamine H1 receptor antagonists, 1 microM mepyramine and 1 microM diphenhydramine, abolished this transient contraction completely, whereas cimetidine, phentolamine, reserpine and tetrodotoxin failed to inhibit the contraction. Histamine H1 receptor mRNA level by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was quite parallel to histamine H1 receptor-mediated contraction, indicating that the contraction is mediated through histamine H1 receptors in the smooth muscle. Neuropeptide Y (10 nM in arteries and 3 nM in veins, respectively) significantly potentiated histamine H1 receptor-mediated contraction via neuropeptide Y1 receptors in most of rat blood vessels. Since the phospholipase C inhibitors, neomycin (1 mM) and 2-nitro-4-carboxyphenyl-N, N-diphenylcarbamate (NCDC, 10 microM), respectively, specifically abolished the potentiation, the potentiation by neuropeptide Y may depend on activation of phospholipase C.

Abstract
The great majority of the sustained secretory response of adrenal chromaffin cells to histamine is due to extracellular Ca(2+) influx through voltage-operated Ca(2+) channels (VOCCs). This is likely to be true also for other G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) agonists that evoke catecholamine secretion from these cells. However, the mechanism by which these GPCRs activate VOCCs is not yet clear. A substantial amount of data have established that histamine acts on H(1) receptors to activate phospholipase C via a Pertussis toxin-resistant G protein, causing the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and the mobilisation of store Ca(2+); however, the molecular events that lead to the activation of the VOCCs remain undefined. This review will summarise the known actions of histamine on cellular signalling pathways in adrenal chromaffin cells and relate them to the activation of extracellular Ca(2+) influx through voltage-operated channels, which evokes catecholamine secretion. These actions provide insight into how other GPCRs might activate Ca(2+) influx in many excitable and non-excitable cells.

Abstract
The current study has investigated the electrophysiological responses evoked by histamine in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells using perforated-patch techniques. Histamine caused a transient hyperpolarization followed by a sustained depolarization of 7.2 +/- 1.4 mV associated with an increase in spontaneous action potential frequency. The hyperpolarization was abolished after depleting intracellular Ca(2+) stores with thapsigargin (100 nM), and was reduced by 40 % with apamin (100 nM). Membrane resistance increased by about 60 % during the histamine-induced depolarization suggesting inhibition of a K(+) channel. An inward current relaxation, typical of an M-current, was observed in response to negative voltage steps from a holding potential of -30 mV. This current reversed at -81.6 +/- 1.8 mV and was abolished by the M-channel inhibitor linopirdine (100 microM). During application of histamine, the amplitude of M-currents recorded at a time corresponding with the sustained depolarization was reduced by 40 %. No inward current rectification was observed in the range -150 to -70 mV, and glibenclamide (10 microM) had no effect on either resting membrane potential or the response to histamine. The results show that an M-current is present in bovine chromaffin cells and that this current is inhibited during sustained application of histamine, resulting in membrane depolarization and increased discharge of action potentials. These results demonstrate for the first time a possible mechanism coupling histamine receptors to activation of voltage-operated Ca(2+) channels in these cells.

Abstract
A variety of Ca2+ binding proteins are known to play an integral role in catecholamine release from synapses as well as secretory cells, such as chromaffin cells. The Drosophila protein frequenin and its mammalian homolog neuronal Ca2+ sensor-1 (NCS-1) belong to a family of Ca2+ sensors with EF hands that bind Ca2+ and then interact with other proteins. Frequenin/NCS-1 has been shown to enhance exocytotic activity in addition to altering Ca2+ channel regulation. To better understand how NCS-1 regulates stimulus-secretion coupling, bovine chromaffin cells were infected with Semliki Forest virus (SFV) vectors containing the rat NCS-1 gene. Cells were studied in the perforated whole-cell patch-clamp configuration. Membrane capacitance was monitored as an indicator of exocytosis-endocytosis. Exocytosis elicited by membrane depolarization was not significantly different between cells infected with SFV expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) or GFP plus NCS-1, except that the overexpression of NCS-1 resulted in a faster rundown in exocytosis. When cells were stimulated with histamine, NCS-1 overexpression led to higher exocytosis, as well as [Ca2+]i elevation. Immunocytochemistry showed a similar distribution of NCS-1 and phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase beta (PI4Kbeta). NCS-1 and PI4Kbeta coimmunoprecipitate, opening up the possibility that the two proteins directly interact. These results suggest that NCS-1 may regulate cellular activity through the modulation of the phosphatidylinositol signaling pathway.

Abstract
Wortmannin (WT) is known to inhibit catecholamine (CA) secretion in chromaffin cells. This effect was found to be sensitive to UV light in experiments designed to perform simultaneous monitoring of changes in [Ca2+]i and CA secretion in perfused rat adrenal medullas. When the change in [Ca2+]i was measured using calcium green-1 (490 nm excitation), a 35-min treatment with 10 microM WT caused a 69% inhibition of CA secretion evoked by excess (30 mM) extracellular K+ and a moderate inhibition of the [Ca2+]i response. In contrast, the same treatment of fura-2-loaded cells with WT caused only an 11% inhibition of the high-K+-evoked secretion and no significant attenuation of the [Ca2+]i response. However, during interruption of fluorometry with fura-2, the inhibitory effect of WT developed at a rate similar to that exhibited in calcium green-1-loaded cells. The WT-induced inhibition of high-K+- or bradykinin-evoked secretory responses, which was otherwise irreversible, was reversed by exposing WT-treated chromaffin cells to 380-nm light. When WT was reapplied to the cells of which the secretory ability had been restored by light irradiation, the secretory response was inhibited with a time course similar to that shown during the initial treatment with WT. The photosensitive effect of WT was also demonstrated using bullfrog sympathetic ganglia in which WT-induced inhibition of synaptic transmission was reversed by irradiation with 380-nm light. These results suggest that UV light removes the inhibitory effects of WT by disrupting the covalent bond formed between WT and a target molecule which remains to be determined, although myosin light chain kinase has been reported as the target molecule in both cases examined in this study.
