Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the major intracellular calcium (Ca2+) storage compartment in eukaryotic cells. In most instances, the mobilization of Ca2+ from this store is followed by a delayed and sustained uptake of Ca2+ through Ca2+-permeable channels of the cell surface named store-operated Ca2+ channels (SOCCs). This gives rise to a store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) that has been thoroughly investigated in electrically non-excitable cells where it is the principal regulated Ca2+ entry pathway. The existence of this Ca2+ route in neurons has long been a matter of debate. However, a growing body of experimental evidence indicates that the recruitment of Ca2+ from neuronal ER Ca2+ stores generates a SOCE. The present review summarizes the main studies supporting the presence of a depletion-dependent Ca2+ entry in neurons. It also addresses the question of the molecular composition of neuronal SOCCs, their expression, pharmacological properties, as well as their physiological relevance.

Abstract
Flavonoids have an ability to suppress various ion channels. We determined whether one of flavonoids, cyanidin-3-glucoside, affects adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP)-induced calcium signaling using digital imaging methods for intracellular free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)]i), reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitochondrial membrane potential in PC12 cells. Treatment with ATP (100µM) for 90 sec induced [Ca(2+)]i increases in PC12 cells. Pretreatment with cyanidin-3-glucoside (1µ g/ml to 100µg/ml) for 30 min inhibited the ATP-induced [Ca(2+)]i increases in a concentration-dependent manner (IC50=15.3µg/ml). Pretreatment with cyanidin-3-glucoside (15µg/ml) for 30 min significantly inhibited the ATP-induced [Ca(2+)]i responses following removal of extracellular Ca(2+) or depletion of intracellular [Ca(2+)]i stores. Cyanidin-3-glucoside also significantly inhibited the relatively specific P2X2 receptor agonist 2-MeSATP-induced [Ca(2+)]i responses. Cyanidin-3-glucoside significantly inhibited the thapsigargin or ATP-induced store-operated calcium entry. Cyanidin-3-glucoside significantly inhibited the ATP-induced [Ca(2+)]i responses in the presence of nimodipine and ω-conotoxin. Cyanidin-3-glucoside also significantly inhibited KCl (50 mM)-induced [Ca(2+)]i increases. Cyanidin-3-glucoside significantly inhibited ATP-induced mitochondrial depolarization. The intracellular Ca(2+) chelator BAPTA-AM or the mitochondrial Ca(2+) uniporter inhibitor RU360 blocked the ATP-induced mitochondrial depolarization in the presence of cyanidin-3-glucoside. Cyanidin-3-glucoside blocked ATP-induced formation of ROS. BAPTA-AM further decreased the formation of ROS in the presence of cyanidin-3-glucoside. All these results suggest that cyanidin-3-glucoside inhibits ATP-induced calcium signaling in PC12 cells by inhibiting multiple pathways which are the influx of extracellular Ca(2+) through the nimodipine and ω-conotoxin-sensitive and -insensitive pathways and the release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores. In addition, cyanidin-3-glucoside inhibits ATP-induced formation of ROS by inhibiting Ca(2+)-induced mitochondrial depolarization.

Abstract
Neuroendocrine regulatory peptide (NERP)-2, recently identified as a bioactive peptide involved in vasopressin secretion and feeding regulation in the central nervous system, is abundantly expressed in endocrine cells in peripheral tissues. To explore the physiological roles of NERP-2 in the pancreas, we examined its effects on insulin secretion. NERP-2 increased glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in a dose-dependent manner, with a lowest effective dose of 10(-7) M, from the pancreatic β-cell line MIN6 and isolated mouse pancreatic islets. NERP-2 did not affect insulin secretion under the low-glucose conditions. Neither NERP-1 nor NERP-2-Gly (nonamidated NERP-2) stimulated insulin secretion. NERP-2 significantly augmented GSIS after intravenous administration to anesthetized rats or intraperitoneal injection to conscious mice. We detected NERP-2 in pancreatic islets, where it co-localized extensively with insulin. Calcium-imaging analysis demonstrated that NERP-2 increased the calcium influx in MIN6 cells. These findings reveal that NERP-2 regulates GSIS by elevating intracellular calcium concentrations.

Abstract
In humans, 27 TRP channels from 6 related families contribute to a broad spectrum of cellular functions, such as thermo-, pressure-, volume-, pain- and chemosensation. Pain and inflammation-inducing compounds represent potent plant and animal defense mechanisms explaining the great variety of the naturally occurring, TRPV1-, TRPM8-, and TRPA1-activating ligands. The discovery of the first vanilloid receptor (TRPV1) and its involvement in nociception triggered the euphoria and the hope in novel therapeutic strategies treating pain, and this clear-cut indication inspired the development of TRPV1-selective ligands. On the other hand the nescience in the physiological role and putative clinical indication hampered the development of a selective drug in the case of the other TRP channels. Therefore, currently only a handful of mostly un-selective blocker is available to target TRP channels. Nevertheless, there is an ongoing quest for new, natural or synthetic ligands and modulators. In this chapter, we will give an overview on available broad-range blocker, as well as first TRP channel-selective compounds.

Abstract
Phenolic compounds affect intracellular free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) signaling. The study examined whether the simple phenolic compound octyl gallate affects ATP-induced Ca(2+) signaling in PC12 cells using fura-2-based digital Ca(2+) imaging and whole-cell patch clamping. Treatment with ATP (100 microM) for 90 s induced increases in [Ca(2+)](i) in PC12 cells. Pretreatment with octyl gallate (100 nM to 20 microM) for 10 min inhibited the ATP-induced [Ca(2+)](i) response in a concentration-dependent manner (IC(50)=2.84 microM). Treatment with octyl gallate (3 microM) for 10 min significantly inhibited the ATP-induced response following the removal of extracellular Ca(2+) with nominally Ca(2+)-free HEPES HBSS or depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores with thapsigargin (1 microM). Treatment for 10 min with the L-type Ca(2+) channel antagonist nimodipine (1 microM) significantly inhibited the ATP-induced [Ca(2+)](i) increase, and treatment with octyl gallate further inhibited the ATP-induced response. Treatment with octyl gallate significantly inhibited the [Ca(2+)](i) increase induced by 50 mM KCl. Pretreatment with protein kinase C inhibitors staurosporin (100 nM) and GF109203X (300 nM), or the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein (50 microM) did not significantly affect the inhibitory effects of octyl gallate on the ATP-induced response. Treatment with octyl gallate markedly inhibited the ATP-induced currents. Therefore, we conclude that octyl gallate inhibits ATP-induced [Ca(2+)](i) increase in PC12 cells by inhibiting both non-selective P2X receptor-mediated influx of Ca(2+) from extracellular space and P2Y receptor-induced release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores in protein kinase-independent manner. In addition, octyl gallate inhibits the ATP-induced Ca(2+) responses by inhibiting the secondary activation of voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels.

Abstract
Although store-operated Ca(2+) influx has been well-studied in nonneuronal cells, an understanding of its nature in neurons remains poor. In the bag cell neurons of Aplysia californica, prior work has suggested that a Ca(2+) entry pathway can be activated by Ca(2+) store depletion. Using fura-based imaging of intracellular Ca(2+) in cultured bag cell neurons, we now characterize this pathway as store-operated Ca(2+) influx. In the absence of extracellular Ca(2+), the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitors, cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) or thapsigargin, depleted intracellular stores and elevated intracellular free Ca(2+). With the subsequent addition of extracellular Ca(2+), a prominent Ca(2+) influx was observed. The ryanodine receptor agonist, chloroethylphenol (CEP), also increased intracellular Ca(2+) but did not initiate store-operated Ca(2+) influx, despite overlap between CEP- and CPA-sensitive stores. Bafilomycin A, a vesicular H(+)-ATPase inhibitor, liberated intracellular Ca(2+) from acidic stores and attenuated subsequent Ca(2+) influx, presumably by replenishing CPA-depleted stores. Store-operated Ca(2+) influx was partially blocked by low concentrations of La(3+) or BTP2, and strongly inhibited by either 1-[b-[3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propoxy]-4-methoxyphenethyl]-1H-imidazole (SKF-96365) or a high concentration of Ni(2+). Regarding IP(3) receptor blockers, 2-aminoethyldiphenyl borate, but not xestospongin C, prevented store-operated Ca(2+) influx. However, jasplakinolide, an actin stabilizer reported to inhibit this pathway in smooth muscle cell lines, was ineffective. The bag cell neurons initiate reproductive behavior through a prolonged afterdischarge associated with intracellular Ca(2+) release and neuropeptide secretion. Store-operated Ca(2+) influx may serve to replenish stores depleted during the afterdischarge or participate in the release of peptide that triggers behavior.

Abstract
The P2X2 receptor is a subtype of ionotropic ATP receptor and plays a significant role in regulating fast synaptic transmission in the nervous system. Because the expression level of the P2X2 receptor is known to determine its channel properties and functional interactions with other neurotransmitter channels, elucidating the mechanisms underlying the regulation of P2X2 receptor expression in neuronal cells is important. Here, we identified three motifs that correspond to the retinoic acid response element in the 5'-flanking region of the rat P2X2 gene. In rat pheochromocytoma PC-12 cells, treatment with 9-cis-retinoic acid as well as all-trans-retinoic acid significantly increased the mRNA and protein level of P2X2 receptor. In addition, in PC-12 cells transiently transfected with a luciferase reporter gene driven by the promoter region of the rat P2X2 gene, both 9-cis-retinoic acid and all-trans-retinoic acid increased the luciferase activity, whereas their effects were diminished by truncation of the retinoic acid response elements in the promoter. Furthermore, 9-cis-retinoic acid enhanced the ATP-evoked whole cell currents and intracellular Ca2+- and ATP-evoked dopamine release, indicating the up-regulation of functional P2X2 receptors on the plasma membrane. These results provide the molecular mechanism underlying the transcriptional regulation of P2X2 receptors and suggest that retinoid is an important factor in regulating P2X2 receptors in the nervous system.

Abstract
The effects of the organochlorine (OC) liver tumor promoter heptachlor epoxide (HE) and a related non-tumor promoting OC, delta-hexachlorocyclohexane (delta-HCH), on the dynamics of intracellular calcium (Ca2+) were investigated in mouse 1c1c7 hepatoma cells. HE induced a non-capacitative, Ca2+ entry-like phenomenon, which was transient and concentration-dependent with 10 and 50 microM HE. The plasma membrane Ca2+ channel blocker SKF-96365 antagonized this HE-induced Ca2+ entry. delta-HCH failed to induce Ca2+ entry, rather it antagonized the HE-induced Ca2+ entry. Both HE and delta-HCH induced Ca2+ release from endoplasmic reticulum (ER) at treatment concentrations as low as 10 microM; at 50 microM, the former induced 5x as much Ca2+ release as the latter. The HE-induced Ca2+ release from the ER was antagonized using the IP3 receptor/channel blocker xestospongin C, suggesting that HE induces ER Ca2+ release through the IP3 receptor/channel pore. These results show that the effect of HE on cellular Ca2+ mimics that of mitogens such as epidermal and hepatocyte growth factors. They also provide insight into the similarities and differences between tumorigenic and non-tumorigenic OCs, in terms of the mechanisms and the extent of the [Ca2+]i increased by these agents.

Abstract
Extracellular ATP triggers catecholamine secretion from PC12 cells by activating ionotropic purine receptors. Repeated stimulation by ATP leads to habituation of the secretory response. In this paper, we use amperometric detection to monitor the habituation of PC12 cells to multiple stimulations of ATP or its agonist. Cells habituate to 30 microm ATP slower than they do to 300 or 600 microm ATP. Modifying external Mg2+ affects the response of cells to 30 microm ATP, but does not affect habituation, suggesting that habituation does not necessarily correspond to either stimulus intensity or cellular response. Mg2+ affects the initial response of PC12 cells to 2MeSATP in a manner similar to ATP. Increasing external [Mg2+] to 3.0 mm, however, eliminates habituation to 2MeSATP. This habituation can be partially restored by costimulation with 100 microm UTP. Background application of UTP increases habituation to both ATP and 2MeSATP. This suggests that ATP-sensitive metabotropic (P2Y) receptors play a role in the habituation process. Finally, although Ca2+ influx through voltage-operated calcium channels does not appear to contribute to secretion during ATP stimulation, blocking these channels with nicardipine increases habituation. This suggests a role for voltage-operated calcium channels in the habituation process.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) binds its cognate G-protein-coupled receptor (PTH1R) and signals through both adenylyl cyclase and phospholipase C (PLC). C-terminal determinants of the PTH1R interact with the Na+/H+ exchanger regulatory factor 1 (NHERF-1) by binding the first of two PDZ (psd95, discs-large, ZO-1) domains. Compared with wild-type opossum kidney (OK) cells, OKH cells, a sub-clone, do not display PTH-mediated increases of [Ca2+]i and express NHERF-1 at markedly lower levels. Stable expression of NHERF-1 in the OKH parent (OKH-N1) restores the PTH-mediated increase of [Ca2+]i that arises from an influx of extracellular calcium and is both PLC-dependent and pertussis toxin-sensitive. From a morphological perspective, NHERF-1 and the PTH1R co-localize to apical patches of OKH-N1 cells, an expression pattern that is absent in OKH cells and depends on a direct NHERF-1-PTH1R interaction in OKH-N1 cells. Actin and PLCbeta1 and -beta3 co-localize with NHERF-1 and the PTH1R in OKH-N1 cell apical patches. Actin is also an integral component of the NHERF-1-assembled complex because cytochalasin D disrupts apical localization of both NHERF-1 and the PTH1R and inhibits the PTH-mediated increase of [Ca2+]i. Expression of the first PDZ domain of NHERF-1 acts as a dominant-negative interactor by blocking apical localization of the PTH1R and inhibiting PTH-elicited increases of [Ca2+]i. Thus, NHERF-1 assembles a signaling complex in the apical domains of OK cells that contains the PTH1R, PLCbeta, and the actin cytoskeleton. Disruption of this complex blocks the PTH mediated increases of intracellular calcium.

Abstract
The present study investigated the mechanisms by which the thromboxane A2 mimetic U46619 can elicit phasic and tonic contractions in the pig thoracic duct, whereas other agonists like 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) produce tonic contractions only. Tonic contractions in response to either agonist were abolished by the l-type voltage-operated calcium channel (VOCC) inhibitor nifedipine, the store-operated calcium channel inhibitor SKF 96365, the calcium-sensitive chloride channel (ClCa) inhibitor niflumic acid, and by removal of extracellular Cl-. Superimposed phasic responses to U46619 were abolished by only nifedipine. Inhibitors of K+ channels did not prevent phasic contractions to U46619. The IP3 receptor antagonist 2-APB attenuated tonic contractions only, whereas ryanodine and removal of extracellular Na+ selectively abolished phasic contractions to U46619. Therefore, selective initiation of phasic contractions by U46619 appears to depend on intracellular Ca2+ from a ryanodine-sensitive store that causes depolarization via Na+/Ca2+ exchange, whereas tonic contractions to U46619 and 5-HT are mediated primarily by release of IP3-mobilized intracellular Ca2+ that subsequently causes ClCa opening, membrane depolarization, and Ca2+ entry via l-type VOCC.

Abstract
The ability of sodium pyrithione (NaP), an agent that produces delayed neuropathy in some species, to alter neuronal physiology was accessed using ratiometric imaging of cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in fura PE-filled cultured Aplysia bag cell neurons. Bath-application of NaP evoked a [Ca(2+)](i) elevation in both somata and neurites with an EC(50) of approximately 300 nM and a Hill coefficient of approximately 1. The response required the presence of external Ca(2+), had an onset of 3-5 min, and generally reached a maximum within 30 min. 2-Methyl-sulfonylpyridine, a metabolite and close structural analog of NaP, did not elevate [Ca(2+)](i). Under whole-cell current-clamp recording, NaP produced a approximately 14 mV depolarization of resting membrane potential that was dependent on external Ca(2+). These data suggested that NaP stimulates Ca(2+) entry across the plasma membrane. To minimize the possibility that a change in cytosolic pH was the basis for NaP-induced Ca(2+) entry, bag cell neuron intracellular pH was estimated with the dye 2',7'-bis(carboxyethyl-5(6)-carboxy-fluorescein acetoxy methylester. Exposure of the neurons to NaP did not alter intracellular pH. The slow onset and sustained nature of the NaP response suggested that a cation exchange mechanism coupled either directly or indirectly to Ca(2+) entry could underlie the phenomenon. However, neither ouabain, a Na(+)/K(+) ATPase inhibitor, nor removal of extracellular Na(+), which eliminates Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger activity, altered the NaP-induced [Ca(2+)](i) elevation. Finally, the possibility that NaP gates a Ca(2+)-permeable ion channel in the plasma membrane was examined. NaP did not appear to activate two major forms of bag cell neuron Ca(2+)-permeable ion channels, as Ca(2+) entry was unaffected by inhibition of voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels using nifedipine or by inhibition of a voltage-dependent, nonselective cation channel using a high concentration of tetrodotoxin. In contrast, two potential store-operated Ca(2+) entry current inhibitors, SKF-96365 and Ni(2+), attenuated NaP-induced Ca(2+) entry. We conclude that NaP activates a slow, persistent Ca(2+) influx in Aplysia bag cell neurons.

Abstract
To elucidate the spatial and temporal relationships between phosphatidyl inositol metabolism and changes in intracellular calcium levels, we developed a simultaneous imaging system using green fluorescent protein fused with the pleckstrin homology domain, and the fluorescent calcium indicator, FuraRed. The redistribution of the fusion protein, which represents the phosphatidyl inositol metabolism process, was quantified by calculating the coefficient of variance of the fluorescence over the entire cytosolic region, excluding the nucleus. This calculation increased the reproducibility, compared to the normalized fluorescence changes in arbitrarily selected cytosolic regions used in conventional analysis. The application of this method to analyzing the response of PC12h cells to a number of pharmacological stimuli showed that the extent of the phosphatidyl inositol metabolism was related to the calcium level, but not induced by calcium alone.

Abstract
The p85alpha subunit of PI3-K and Btk are two crucial components of the B-cell receptor (BCR) signalling pathway. In the present study, we showed that primary splenic B cells from p85alpha null and xid (Btk-deficient) mice fail to induce cyclin D2 expression and enter early G1, but not S phase of the cell cycle in response to BCR engagement. Furthermore, these Btk or p85alpha null B cells displayed increased cell death compared with wild type following BCR engagement. These findings are further confirmed by studies showing that specific pharmacological inhibitors of Btk (LFM-A13), PI3-K (LY294002 and Wortmannin) and PLCgamma (U73122) also block cyclin D2 expression and S phase entry following BCR stimulation, as well as triggering apoptosis. Collectively, these data provide evidence for the concept that the B-cell signalosome (p85alpha, Btk, BLNK and PLCgamma) is involved in regulating cyclin D2 expression in response to BCR engagement. PKC and intracellular calcium are two major downstream effectors of the B-cell signalosome and can be activated by PMA and ionomycin, respectively. In small resting (G0) B cells, costimulation with PMA and ionomycin, but not PMA or ionomycin alone, induces cyclin D2 expression and cell-cycle progression. Consistent with this, we also showed that the BCR-mediated cyclin D2 induction could be abolished by pretreatment of resting B cells with specific inhibitors of capacitative Ca(2+) entry (SK&F 96365) or PKC (Gö6850). Our present results lead us to propose a model in which the B-cell signalosome targets cyclin D2 via the Ca(2+) and PKC-dependent signalling cascades to mediate cell-cycle progression in response to BCR engagement.

Abstract
Compared to sympathetic nervous system, the role of parasympathetic innervation on tone development, especially under diseased conditions, of the pulmonary artery is relatively unknown. In this study, the contractile effect of acetylcholine and the type(s) of muscarinic (M) receptor involved in the pulmonary artery (1st intralobar branch; endothelium-denuded, under resting tension) of the normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) and age-matched (male, 22-26 weeks old) Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were investigated. Cumulative administration of acetylcholine (> or =0.1 microM) caused a concentration-dependent increase in tension (antagonised by p-fluoro-hexahydro-sila-difenidol and 4-diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperidine, both are selective muscarinic M(3) receptor antagonists) and the magnitude of maximum contraction (expressed as % of 50 mM [K(+)](o)-induced contraction) was markedly enhanced in the presence of neostigmine (10 microM, an anti-cholinesterase) (acetylcholine 30 microM, SHR: 72% vs. 35%; WKY: 32% vs. 20%). In SHR only, acetylcholine-elicited contraction was suppressed by 1-[beta-[3-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-propoxyl]-4-methoxyphenethyl]-1H-imidazole (SK&F 96365, 1 microM), amiloride (500 microM), ethyl-isopropyl-amiloride (EIPA, 10 microM), 2-[2-[4-(4-Nitrobenzyloxy)phenyl]ethyl]isothiourea (KB-R 7943, 5 microM), 2,4-dichlorobenzamil (10 microM), and an equal molar substitution of [Na(+)](o) (< or =30 mM) with choline or N-methyl-D-glucamine. In nominally [Ca(2+)](o)-free, EGTA (0.5 mM)-containing Krebs' solution, acetylcholine (> or =3 microM) only elicited a small contraction. In conclusion, muscarinic M(3) receptor activation is responsible for the pulmonary artery contraction induced by acetylcholine, with a greater magnitude observed in SHR. The exaggerated contraction in SHR is probably due to an influx of [Na(+)](o) through the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger and the store-operated channels (SOC) into smooth muscle cells. Elevation of cytosolic [Na(+)](i) subsequently leads to an influx of [Ca(2+)](o) through the reverse mode of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger seems to play a permissive role in mediating the exaggerated contractile response of acetylcholine recorded in the SHR.

Abstract
The adhesion of cancer cells to the endothelium during the metastatic process involves the interaction of specific cell-cell adhesion receptors on the cell surface. E-selectin on endothelial cells and sialyl Lewis X carbohydrate component on tumor cells are mainly implicated in the adhesion of colon carcinoma cells to the endothelium of target organ. In this paper we show that binding of E-selectin to T84 colon tumor cells causes approximately a twofold increase in intracellular calcium concentration. In particular, using two inhibitors of receptor operated calcium channels, CAI and SK&F 96365, we present evidences that the augmentation in cytoplasmic calcium originates from ionic influx from extracellular sources. Furthermore, we demonstrated that modulation of [Ca2+]i by engagement of E-selectin receptor starts signal transduction pathways that affect cell spreading, tyrosine phosphorylation signaling, and cancer cell motility.

Abstract
Measurements of Ca(2+) influx and [Ca(2+)](i) changes in Fura-2/AM-loaded prothoracic glands (PGs) of the silkworm, Bombyx mori, were used to identify Ca(2+) as the actual second messenger of the prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH) of this insect. Dose-dependent increases of [Ca(2+)](i) in PG cells were recorded in the presence of recombinant PTTH (rPTTH) within 5 minutes. The rPTTH-mediated increases of [Ca(2+)](i) levels were dependent on extracellular Ca(2+). They were not blocked by the dihydropyridine derivative, nitrendipine, an antagonist of high-voltage-activated (HVA) Ca(2+) channels, and by bepridil, an antagonist of low-voltage-activated (LVA) Ca(2+) channels. The trivalent cation La(3+), a non-specific blocker of plasma membrane Ca(2+) channels, eliminated the rPTTH-stimulated increase of [Ca(2+)](i) levels in PG cells and so did amiloride, an inhibitor of T-type Ca(2+) channels. Incubation of PG cells with thapsigargin resulted in an increase of [Ca(2+)](i) levels, which was also dependent on extracellular Ca(2+) and was quenched by amiloride, suggesting the existence of store-operated plasma membrane Ca(2+) channels, which can also be inhibited by amiloride. Thapsigargin and rPTTH did not operate independently in stimulating increases of [Ca(2+)](i) levels and one agent's mediated increase of [Ca(2+)](i) was eliminated in the presence of the other. TMB-8, an inhibitor of intracellular Ca(2+) release from inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate (IP(3))-sensitive Ca(2+) stores, blocked the rPTTH-stimulated increases of [Ca(2+)](i) levels, suggesting an involvement of IP(3) in the initiation of the rPTTH signaling cascade, whereas ryanodine did not influence the rPTTH-stimulated increases of [Ca(2+)](i) levels. The combined results indicate the presence of a cross-talk mechanism between the [Ca(2+)](i) levels, filling state of IP(3)-sensitive intracellular Ca(2+) stores and the PTTH-receptor's-mediated Ca(2+) influx.

Abstract
The action of atrial natriuretic peptide on glucose uptake during hypoxia was investigated in neonatal cardiomyocytes. When the cultures were exposed to 100 n and 1 and 10 micro M of atrial natriuretic peptide for 60 min, hypoxia-induced glucose uptake significantly increased from 20.4 +/- 1.2 to 28.2 +/- 3.1, 31.6 +/- 2.7, and 30.1 +/- 2.8 pmol/h/mg protein, respectively, although atrial natriuretic peptide alone did not significantly affect the basal glucose uptake in normoxic condition. The atrial natriuretic peptide-stimulated glucose uptake during hypoxia was significantly decreased by 100 n of genistein and tyrphostin A-23 (a tyrosine kinase inhibitor) from 31.6 +/- 2.7 to 22.8 +/- 2.4 and 23.8 +/- 2.7 pmol/h/mg protein. U73122 100 n, which is a phospholipase C antagonist, significantly inhibited the atrial natriuretic peptide-induced glucose uptake under hypoxic conditions from 31.6 +/- 2.7 to 13.6 +/- 1.9 pmol/h/mg protein. However, the atrial natriuretic peptide-induced glucose uptake did not involve elevation of intracellular Ca and phosphatidylinositol (PI)3 kinase. It was concluded that the atrial natriuretic peptide-stimulated glucose uptake during hypoxia acts through a phospholipase C-tyrosine kinase pathway.

Abstract
The process of regulated secretion in PC-12 cells is tightly coupled to calcium entry, which is absolutely dependent on extracellular Ca2+([Ca2+]ex). Tunicamycin treatment of the cells dissociated depolarization-triggered Ca2+ influx from depolarization (high K+)-induced transmitter release into two distinct and independent phases. Deplarization-evoked Ca2+ influx was not affected by tunicamycin treatment (1 microg/ml, 72 h), whereas depolarization-evoked transmitter release was strongly inhibited (> 60%), suggesting at least a two-step process, and the participation of glycosylated protein(s) in the actual fusion/secretion step. Similarly, bradykinin-mediated transmitter release was linearly related to and absolutely dependent on Ca2+ entry, and was inhibited by tunicamycin treatment (> 80%), whereas bradykinin-evoked Ca2+ entry was not impaired, indicating that glycosylated protein(s) are essential for bradykinin-evoked release at a step subsequent to Ca2+ influx. The heavily glycosylated alpha2 subunit of the dihydropyridine-sensitive channel, which was used to monitor tunicamycin inhibition of glycosylation, was not expressed in the tunicamycin-treated cells, as shown by Western blot analysis. This observation allowed us to conclude that the alpha1 subunit of the heteromeric dihydropyridine voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channel, which is responsible for Ca2+ entry, is also fully functional when not assembled with its corresponding alpha2 subunit. The molecular properties of the alpha2 subunit, whose role in the complex structure of the channel is not yet understood, are shown for the first time for the L-type Ca2+ channel of PC-12 cells. Similar to cardiac and skeletal muscle cells, the alpha2 subunit appears to be a glycosylated polypeptide of molecular weight 170 kD and to display a characteristic mobility shift to 140 kD under reducing conditions.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Sevoflurane activates phospholipase C and protein kinase C, leading to an increase in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration, which modulates glucose transport. We studied in vitro the effect of sevoflurane on the uptake of 2-deoxyglucose in rat skeletal muscle cells and the mechanism that modulates the glucose transport. Sevoflurane 0.8, 1.2, and 2.0 mM significantly increased glucose uptake from 13.1 +/- 1.2 pmol. h(-1). mg protein(-1) to 22.6 +/- 1.4, 32.1 +/- 1.8, and 37.4 +/-2.7 pmol. h(-1). mg protein(-1), respectively. Tyrphostin A-23 (a highly selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor) 1 and 10 nM significantly decreased the sevoflurane-stimulated glucose uptake from 32.1 +/- 1.8 to 25.8 +/- 1.1 and 15.2 +/- 1.7 pmol. h(-1). mg protein(-1), respectively. Genistein (a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor) 1 and 10 nM also significantly decreased the sevoflurane- stimulated glucose uptake from 32.1 +/- 1.8 to 25.7 +/- 1.5 and 15.2 +/- 1.4 pmol. h(-1). mg protein(-1), respectively. The sevoflurane-stimulated glucose uptake was decreased by 100 nM and 1 microM TMB-8 (an intracellular Ca(2+) antagonist), from 32.1 +/- 1.8 pmol. h(-1). mg protein(-1) to 25.6 +/- 3.3 and 20.3 +/- 1.6 pmol. h(-1). mg protein(-1), respectively. Staurosporine (a protein kinase C antagonist) 100 nM significantly decreased sevoflurane-stimulated glucose uptake to 26.1 +/- 1.5 pmol. h(-1). mg protein(-1). We conclude that sevoflurane increases glucose uptake in skeletal muscle cells and that the sevoflurane-stimulated glucose uptake was associated with tyrosine kinase, protein kinase C, and intracellular Ca(2+). IMPLICATIONS Sevoflurane anesthesia has an inhibitory effect on insulin secretion. Glucose concentrations in plasma do not significantly change during sevoflurane anesthesia. Plasma glucose concentrations are affected by intracellular glucose metabolism. However, glucose transport into cells during sevoflurane anesthesia remains unclear.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) is not only involved in the physiologic regulation of excitation-contraction coupling, but could also play a role in cardiac pathophysiology. We investigated the mechanism of ketamine modulation of norepinephrine (NE)-induced IP(3) formation in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. Ketamine 1 and 10 microM significantly decreased the IP(3) response to 1 microM NE by 27% and 43%, respectively. One micromolar TMB-8 (an intracellular calcium antagonist) produced 42% more decreases in IP(3) production than produced by ketamine alone. One hundred micromolar anthranilic acid (a phospholipase A(2) inhibitor) significantly decreased NE (1 microM)-induced IP(3) formation, and the inhibition was further enhanced by ketamine. Ten micromolar U 73122 (a phospholipase C inhibitor) did not significantly affect NE-induced IP(3) in the presence or absence of ketamine. One micromolar ketamine significantly inhibited staurosporine (a nonselective protein kinase C antagonist)-, bisindolylmaleimide (a selective protein kinase C antagonist)-, and wortmannin (a phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase antagonist)-stimulated IP(3) formation. In conclusion, ketamine suppresses NE-induced IP(3) production, and the inhibition is caused through pathways including protein kinase C and a decrease in intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations. IMPLICATIONS Ketamine inhibits norepinephrine-induced inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate formation in a dose-dependent manner via pathways that involve protein kinase C and a decrease in intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations.

Abstract
A two-cell biosensor was developed that uses optically detected changes in naturally colored fish chromatophores to measure the neurosecretory output of mammalian neuronal cells. The specific version of the biosensor described here is a continuous flow device that places red-pigmented, dendritic erythrophore cells directly downstream of an immobilized population of PC12 neuronal cells, a well-established model cell-line having neuroendocrine function. Agents known to stimulate catecholamine neurosecretion (secretagogues) were presented to the PC12 cells. It was found that the varying level of neurosecretion from the PC12 cells was measurable by judging the degree of pigment aggregation in the erythrophores. Increases in catecholamine secretion and consequent pigment aggregation were observed for several known secretagogues, including receptor agonists (ATP, acetylcholine), membrane depolarizing agents (high K(+) concentration), and specific neurotoxins (black widow spider venom, alpha-latrotoxin). This particular two-cell biosensor, which is applicable to the detection of any agents that affect the levels of catecholamine secretion from PC12 cells, demonstrates the general principle that the breadth of sensitivity of a biosensor is increased by employing coupled cell types.

Abstract
Extracellular ATP elevates cytosolic Ca(2+) by activating P2X and P2Y purinoceptors and voltage-sensitive Ca(2+) channels (VCCCs) in PC-12 cells, thereby facilitating catecholamine secretion. We investigated the mechanism by which ATP activates VSCCs. 2-Methylthioadenosine 5'-triphosphate (2-MeS-ATP) and UTP were used as preferential activators of P2X and P2Y, respectively. Nifedipine inhibited the ATP- and 2-MeS-ATP-evoked cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration increase and [(3)H]norepinephrine secretion, but not the UTP-evoked responses. Studies with Ca(2+) channel blockers indicated that L-type VSCCs were activated after the P2X activation. Mn(2+) entry profiles and studies with thapsigargin revealed that Ca(2+) entry, rather than Ca(2+) release, was sensitive to nifedipine. Although P2X(2) and P2X(4) receptor mRNAs were detected, studies with pyridoxal phosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonic acid revealed that P2X(2) was mainly coupled to the L-type VSCCs. The inhibitory effect of nifedipine did not occur in the absence of extracellular Na(+), suggesting that Na(+) influx, which induces depolarization, was essential for the P2X(2)-mediated activation of VSCCs. We report that depolarization induced by Na(+) entry through the P2X(2) purinoceptors effectively activates L-type VSCCs in PC-12 cells.

Abstract
Osteoclasts "sense" elevated extracellular calcium, which leads to cytoskeletal changes that may be linked to phospholipase C (PLC) activation and the associated rise in intracellular calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)). Since PLC is linked to transient receptor potential channels (trp), we hypothesized that receptor activated calcium influx due to this channel type would be activated by osteoclasts sensing [Ca(2+)](e). We found that high [Ca(2+)](e) induced similar intracellular Ca(2+) rises in chicken osteoclasts with or without intracellular Ca(2+) store depletion by either TPEN or thapsigargin, thus defining store-insensitive Ca(2+) influx. This store-insensitive calcium sensing component was blocked by the PLC antagonist U73122. Also, the calcium channel inhibitor SKF 96365, a blocker of store-independent trp-like channels, was effective in inhibiting calcium sensing in the presence of thapsigargin. Thus, a store-independent component of calcium sensing was associated with ion channels linked to PLC. Since receptor activated transient receptor potential (trp) family cation channels open in a PLC-dependent and store-independent manner, we suggest that receptor operated channels are activated in osteoclasts stimulated by high extracellular Ca(2+).

Abstract
Low molecular mass dinitrosyl iron complexes (DNICs) are nitrosating agents and it is known that the dinitrosyl iron moiety can be transferred to proteins. The aim of the present study was to determine if the formation of protein-bound dinitrosyl iron can modulate ionic channel activity. In PC12 cells, dinitrosyl iron-thiosulfate (50 microM) caused irreversible activation of a depolarizing inward current (IDNIC). IDNIC was partially inhibited by the metal chelator diethyldithiocarbamate (DETC, 1 mM), but not by the reducing/denitrosylating agent dithiothreitol (DTT, 5 mM). The activation of IDNIC was not reproduced by application of nitric oxide (NO., 100 microM), S-nitrocysteine (200 microM) or ferrous iron-thiosulfate (50 microM), and was not prevented by the irreversible guanylyl cyclase inhibitor 1H-[1,2,4]oxadiazolo-[4, 3-a]quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ, 1 microM). Similarly, intracellular perfusion of dinitrosyl iron-thiosulfate (100 microM) did not result in activation of IDNIC. Ion replacement experiments show that the DETC-sensitive component of IDNIC is a non-selective cationic current. In accordance, IDNIC was blocked by antagonists of receptor-operated calcium entry, gadolinium (25 microM) and SK&F 96365 (25 microM). Single-channel measurements from outside-out patches reveal that the DETC-sensitive component of IDNIC is an inward current carried by a cationic channel having a conductance of 50 pS. The present observations suggest that the formation of ion channel-bound dinitrosyl iron represents another mechanism of regulation of ion channel activity by NO.-related species, which may be particularly important in pathophysiological processes where NO. is overproduced.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP(3)) plays an important role in excitation-contraction coupling and malignant hyperthermia in skeletal muscle. We investigated whether sevoflurane affects IP(3) formation in L(6) skeletal muscle cells and studied the mechanisms that modulate IP(3). Sevoflurane stimulated IP(3) production from a basal level of 78.4 +/- 6.1 to 730.0 +/- 53.1 pmol. mg. protein(-1) in 2 mM of sevoflurane in a dose-dependent manner. A dose of 10 microM of U73122 (a phospholipase C antagonist) significantly decreased 0.8 mM of sevoflurane-stimulated IP(3) production from 387. 8 +/- 24.7 to 247.8 +/- 19.8 pmol. mg. protein(-1). A dose of 100 microM of (p-amylcinnamoyl) anthranilic acid (a PLA(2) antagonist) also significantly decreased sevoflurane-stimulated IP(3) production to 282.0 +/- 24.0 pmol. mg. protein(-1). Exposure to 1 microM of genistein and tyrphostin A23 (tyrosine kinase inhibitors) significantly decreased sevoflurane-stimulated IP(3) production to 241.0 +/- 35.3 and 267.4 +/- 32.9 pmol. mg. protein(-1). Sevoflurane-stimulated IP(3) production was significantly decreased by 10 microM of 8-(N,N-diethylamino) octyl-3,4-5-trimathoxybenzoate (an intracellular calcium antagonist) and 100 microM and 1 mM of guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) (GDPbetaS), a guanosine 5'triphosphate-binding protein inhibitor. Elevation of IP(3) production was significantly higher in halothane than in sevoflurane and isoflurane at the same concentration of 0.8 mM. We conclude that sevoflurane-stimulated IP(3) production involves phospholipase C, phospholipase A(2), tyrosine kinase, and guanosine 5'triphosphate-binding protein and the stimulation is associated with concentration of intracellular ionized calcium. IMPLICATIONS Inhaled anesthetics increase intracellular ionized calcium in the skeletal muscle cell and the ionized calcium increase is partly released from the intracellular store by inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP(3)) formation. IP(3) plays an important role in excitation-contraction coupling and malignant hyperthermia. We studied whether sevoflurane affects IP(3) formation and the mechanisms that modulate IP(3).

Abstract
ATP-induced Ca2+ transients were examined in individual PC12 cells of a well defined clone, before and after treatment with nerve growth factor (NGF) to induce a neurone-like phenotype. Using reverse transcriptase PCR these cells were found to express mRNA for several P2 receptors. In undifferentiated cells the ATP-induced Ca2+ response was entirely dependent on Ca2+ influx, could not be mimicked by UTP, alpha,beta-methylene ATP or dibenzoyl ATP or be blocked by pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulphonic acid (PPADS). ATP had no significant effect on levels of cyclic AMP or inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3). These results suggest that in undifferentiated PC12 cells ATP mainly acts on a P2X receptor, possibly the P2X4 subtype. After treatment with NGF for 7 days the ATP response was increased and partially sensitive to PPADS. A component of the ATP-induced Ca2+ increase was due to mobilisation of intracellular Ca2+ stores and another to capacitative Ca2+ entry. UTP caused an increase in intracellular Ca2+, and InsP3 formation could be stimulated by ATP and UTP. ATP also caused a small increase in cyclic AMP, but this was abolished in the presence of indomethacin. Thus, after NGF treatment ATP acts partially via a P2Y receptor, possibly the P2Y2 subtype.

Abstract
During development and regeneration of the nervous system, growth cones of the various nerve cells navigate and direct neurite elongation by detecting and responding to cues in the environment. To investigate changes in growth cone behaviour due to calcium influx we used nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced growth cones of PC12 (rat pheochromocytoma cells) cells as a model. High external concentrations of potassium and ATP depress growth cone motility, induce club-shaped growth cones and reduce filopodia length and the number and relative F-actin contents of single growth cones (r.a.c.), respectively. The cellular responses are mediated by a sustained increase in the intracellular free Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) as monitored by calcium-sensitive fluorescent dyes and confocal microfluorimetry. The responses are not detectable in the presence of the protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein. Immunocytochemistry revealed an increased level of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in cell bodies and growth cones but not in cell nuclei. Paxillin, a cytoskeleton-associated protein located in neurites and growth cones, was detected among the phosphotyrosine proteins. The sustained (> 30 s) Ca2+ influx through voltage-gated L-type but not N- or P-type Ca2+ channels induced the F-actin loss and tyrosine phosphorylation. Ca2+ entry through P2X2 ligand-gated channels caused the same effects. Our data suggest the following mechanism: increased [Ca2+]i levels activate tyrosine kinases located close to the ion channels which then leads to changes in morphology due to tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins, e. g. paxillin.

Abstract
We investigated the role of capacitative Ca(2+) entry and tyrosine kinase activation in mediating phenylephrine (PE)-induced oscillations in intracellular free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in canine pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMCs). [Ca(2+)](i) was measured as the 340- to 380-nm ratio in individual fura 2-loaded PASMCs. Resting [Ca(2+)](i) was 96 +/- 4 nmol/l. PE (10 micromol/l) stimulated oscillations in [Ca(2+)](i), with a peak amplitude of 437 +/- 22 nmol/l and a frequency of 1.01 +/- 0.12/min. Thapsigargin (1 micromol/l) was used to deplete sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) after extracellular Ca(2+) was removed. Under these conditions, a nifedipine-insensitive, sustained increase in [Ca(2+)](i) (140 +/- 7% of control value) was observed when the extracellular Ca(2+) concentration was restored; i.e., capacitative Ca(2+) entry was demonstrated. Capacitative Ca(2+) entry also refilled SR Ca(2+) stores. Capacitative Ca(2+) entry was attenuated (32 +/- 3% of control value) by 50 micromol/l of SKF-96365 (a nonselective Ca(2+)-channel inhibitor). Tyrosine kinase inhibition with tyrphostin 23 (100 micromol/l) and genistein (100 micromol/l) also inhibited capacitative Ca(2+) entry to 63 +/- 12 and 85 +/- 4% of control values, respectively. SKF-96365 (30 micromol/l) attenuated both the amplitude (15 +/- 7% of control value) and frequency (50 +/- 21% of control value) of PE-induced Ca(2+) oscillations. SKF-96365 (50 micromol/l) abolished the oscillations. Tyrphostin 23 (100 micromol/l) also inhibited the amplitude (17 +/- 7% of control value) and frequency (45 +/- 9% of control value) of the oscillations. Genistein (30 micromol/l) had similar effects. Both SKF-96365 and tyrphostin 23 attenuated PE-induced contraction in isolated pulmonary arterial rings. These results demonstrate that capacitative Ca(2+) entry is present and capable of refilling SR Ca(2+) stores in canine PASMCs and may be involved in regulating PE-induced Ca(2+) oscillations. A tyrosine kinase is involved in the signal transduction pathway for alpha(1)-adrenoreceptor activation in PASMCs.

Abstract
1. The effects of Gd3+ on bradykinin- (BK-) induced catecholamine secretion, 45Ca2+ efflux and cytosolic [Ca2+] were studied using bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. 2. BK increased secretion in a Ca2+-dependent manner. From 1 - 100 microM, Gd3+ progressively inhibited secretion induced by 30 nM BK to near-basal levels, however from 0.3 - 3 mM Gd3+ dramatically enhanced BK-induced secretion to above control levels. Gd3+ also increased basal catecholamine secretion by 2 - 3 fold at 1 mM. These effects were mimicked by Eu3+ and La3+. 3. Gd3+ enhanced secretion induced by other agonists that mobilize intracellular Ca2+ stores, but simply blocked the response to K+. 4. Gd3+ still enhanced basal and BK-induced secretion in Ca2+-free solution or in the presence of 30 microM SKF96365, however both effects of Gd3+ were abolished after depleting intracellular Ca2+ stores. 5. Gd3+ (1 mM) reduced the rate of basal 45Ca2+ efflux by 57%. In Ca2+-free buffer, BK transiently increased cytosolic [Ca2+] measured with Fura-2. The [Ca2+] response to BK was substantially prolonged in the presence of Gd3+ (1 mM). 6. The results suggest that Gd3+ greatly enhances the efficacy of Ca2+ released from intracellular stores in evoking catecholamine secretion, by inhibiting Ca2+ extrusion from the cytosol. This suggests that intracellular Ca2+ stores are fully competent to support secretion in chromaffin cells to levels comparable to those evoked by extracellular Ca2+ entry. Drugs that modify Ca2+ extrusion from the cell, such as lanthanide ions, will be useful in investigating the mechanisms by which intracellular Ca2+-store mobilization couples to Ca2+-dependent exocytosis.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We investigated the effect of ketamine on inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) formation in rat cardiomyocytes. After the addition of 1 micromol/L ketamine, IP3 production in the presence of 0.5, 1, 5, 10, and 30 mmol/L Ca2+ significantly decreased from 537.1+/-8.3, 590.7+/-12.9, 690.6+/-7.9, 754.8+/-12.5, and 823.7+/-15.2 pmol/mg protein to 467.0+/-8.3, 483.8+/-11.0, 512.6+/-21.3, 612.1+/-16.9, and 652.6+/-17.3 pmol/mg protein, respectively. When exposed to TMB-8 (a intracellular calcium inhibitor), IP3 production decreased significantly from 347.2+/-27.3 to 283.8+/-20.4 pmol/mg protein in the presence of 1 micromol/L ketamine, but A23187, which increases intracellular calcium, did not affect the inhibition of IP3 production by ketamine. These results demonstrate that ketamine decreases IP3 formation through inhibition of the calcium ion-sensing receptor and that IP3 formation reduced by ketamine is not affected by the alteration of intracellular calcium. IMPLICATIONS Ketamine has a negative inotropic effect in isolated cardiomyocytes. The negative inotropic effect was associated with a decrease in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production, and the inhibitory action was enhanced depending on the concentration of extracellular Ca2+.

Abstract
The effects of nitrogen monoxide (NO)-related compounds on cytosolic free Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) and noradrenaline (NA) release in neurosecretory PC12 cells were investigated. The addition of S-nitroso-cysteine (SNC) stimulated [Ca2+]i increases from an intracellular Ca2+ pool continuously in a concentration-dependent manner. Other NO donors, which stimulate cyclic GMP accumulation, did not cause [Ca2+]i increases. After treatment with 0.2 mM SNC, transient increases in [Ca2+]i from the Ca2+ pool induced by caffeine were completely abolished. The addition of N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) caused sustained [Ca2+]i increases from the intracellular Ca2+ pool. Furthermore, caffeine did not stimulate further [Ca2+]i increases in PC12 cells pretreated with NEM. These findings suggest that SNC and NEM predominantly interact with a caffeine-sensitive Ca2+ pool. The addition of dithiothreitol (DTT) to 0.4 mM SNC-stimulated cells reduced [Ca2+]i to basal levels, and the addition of DTT to NEM-stimulated cells locked [Ca2+]i at high levels. The stimulatory effects of SNC but not NEM were not abolished by pretreatment with DTT. These findings suggest that modification of the oxidation status of the sulfhydryl groups on the caffeine-sensitive receptors by SNC or NEM regulates Ca2+ channel activity in a reversible manner. SNC did not stimulate NA release by itself but did inhibit ionomycin-stimulated NA release. In contrast, NEM stimulated NA release in the absence of extracellular CaCl2 and further enhanced ionomycin-stimulated NA release. Ca2+ mobilization by SNC from the caffeine-sensitive pool was not a sufficient factor, and other factors stimulating NA release may be negatively regulated by SNC.

Abstract
Guanine nucleotide-binding (G) proteins are required for intracellular vesicular transport and endocytosis. In this study, we investigated the effects of short-term (2 h) and long-term (24 h) treatment with cholera toxin (CTX), which ADP-ribosylates proteins having arginine residues such as the alpha subunit of Gs (G(s alpha)), on exocytosis from the neurosecretory rat pheochromocytoma PC 12 cell line. Short-term treatment with CTX stimulated the accumulation of cyclic AMP, and synergistically enhanced both extracellular Ca2+-dependent [3H]noradrenaline (NA) releases (induced by high K+ and ATP) and Ca2+-independent release (induced by mastoparan, a peptide in wasp venom). Long-term treatment with CTX for 24h inhibited Ca2+-dependent and -independent stimulated [3H]NA release. The inhibitory effect of long-term CTX treatment was not derived from a cyclic AMP-dependent system, because (1) H-89, an inhibitor of protein kinase A, had no effect on the inhibition induced by CTX, (2) the long-term treatment with forskolin did not show an inhibitory effect. [32P]ADP-ribosylation of G(s alpha) and its immunoreactivity with anti-G(s alpha) antiserum in the crude membrane fraction was inhibited in the long-term CTX-treated cells, but not in the long-term forskolin-treated cells. [32P]ADP-ribosylation of G(s alpha) in the membrane fraction of short-term CTX-treated cells was approximately 90% of the level in the control cells. These findings suggest that CTX stimulates [3H]NA release via a cyclic AMP-dependent system in the short-term, and that long-term CTX treatment inhibited its release, maybe via ADP-ribosylation of CTX-sensitive proteins such as G(s alpha).

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO), including NO free radicals (*NO) and peroxynitrite (OONO-), modulates the release of neurotransmitters from neuronal tissues. Although we reported that S-nitroso-cysteine stimulated noradrenaline release in brain slices, we now show that only S-nitroso-cysteine inhibits noradrenaline release from PC12 cells. S-Nitroso-cysteine inhibited, in a dose-dependent manner (up to 0.6 mM), the Ca2+ -dependent [3H]noradrenaline release induced by ionomycin, adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate), or high K+, from PC12 cells labeled with [3H]noradrenaline. Sodium nitroprusside, S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine, and 1-hydroxy-2-oxo-3,3-bis(2-aminoethyl)-1-triazene, which specifically release NO free radicals in neutral buffer, had minimal effects on [3H]noradrenaline release, although they markedly stimulated cyclic GMP accumulation. 3-Morpholinosydonimine, which releases peroxynitrite, had no effect on either [3H]noradrenaline release or cyclic GMP accumulation. S-Nitroso-cysteine inhibited phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate- and mastoparan (wasp venom toxin)-induced [3H]noradrenaline release. These findings suggest that 1) S-nitroso-cysteine, but not other NO donors, inhibits some common process occurring during noradrenaline release in PC12 cells, 2) neither NO radicals, peroxynitrite, nor cyclic GMP mediate the inhibitory effects of S-nitroso-cysteine in PC12 cells.

Abstract
Effects of extracellular ATP on intracellular free calcium concentration([Ca2+]i) were examined in rat single nephron segments using the fura 2-AM. ATP (10 ¿M) induced a significant transient increase in [Ca2+]i in the glomerulus, the early proximal convoluted tubule (S1), the cortical collecting tubule (CCT), and the outer medullary collecting tubule (OMCT). The magnitude of the response was the greatest in the OMCT among four segments. ATP induced an increase in the [Ca2+]i in a dose-dependent manner in S1 and OMCT. In the OMCT, ATP caused a biphasic increase in [Ca2+]i consisting of an initial rapid rise and a sustained phase. Removal of calcium from the medium resulted in an attenuation of the sustained phase of [Ca2+]i and an approximately 30% reduction in the height of the initial [Ca2+]i peak in response to 10 ¿M ATP. Effects of ATP, its analogs, and its metabolites were tested in the S1 and OMCT. ATP, 2-methylthio-ATP (2-MeS-ATP), ADP, and UTP increased [Ca2+]i dose dependently. AMP and adenosine did not affect [Ca2+]i in the S1 and OMCT. The ATP- or 2-MeS-ATP-induced [Ca2+]i increase was inhibited by the pretreatment of the S1 and OMCT with suramin or reactive blue 2. Neomycin, a phospholipase C inhibitor, attenuated the ATP-induced [Ca2+]i increase. To investigate the hormonelike action of ATP in OMCT, a heterologous cross desensitization was performed. The pretreatment of OMCT with ATP inhibited increases in vasopressin-, ANG II-, endothelin-1-, or bradykinin-induced[Ca2+]i increase. These findings suggest that ATP might affect the above peptidyl agonist-activated calcium mobilizations.

Abstract
We examined downstream signaling events that followed the exposure of PC12 cells to extracellular ATP and UTP, and we compared the effects of these P2 receptor agonists with those of growth factors and other stimuli. Based on early findings, we focused particular attention on the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway. ATP and/or UTP produced increases in tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple proteins, including p42 MAP (ERK2) kinase, related adhesion focal tyrosine kinase (RAFTK) (PYK2, CAKbeta), focal adhesion kinase (FAK), Shc, and protein kinase Cdelta (PKCdelta). MAP (ERK2) kinase activity (quantified by substrate phosphorylation) was increased by UTP, ATP, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, ionomycin, and growth factors. UTP and ATP were equipotent (EC50 approximately 25 microM) in stimulating MAP kinase activity, suggesting that these effects were mediated via the Gi-linked P2Y2 (P2U) receptor. Consistent with this, the UTP- and ATP-promoted activation of MAP kinase was diminished in pertussis toxin-treated cells. Treatment of cells with pertussis toxin also reduced both the UTP-dependent increases in intracellular calcium ion concentration ([Ca2+]i) and the tyrosine phosphorylation of RAFTK. Similarly, when [Ca2+]i elevation was prevented using BAPTA and EGTA, the activation of MAP kinase by UTP and ionomycin was blocked, and the tyrosine phosphorylation of RAFTK was reduced. The UTP-promoted increase in MAP kinase activity was partially reduced in cells in which PKC was down-regulated, suggesting that both PKC-dependent and PKC-independent pathways were involved. PKCdelta, which increases MAP kinase activity in some systems, became tyrosine-phosphorylated within 15 s of exposure of cells to ATP or UTP; but epidermal growth factor, nerve growth factor, and insulin had little effect. UTP also promoted the association of Shc with Grb2. These results suggest that the P2Y2 receptor-initiated activation of MAP kinase was dependent on the elevation of [Ca2+]i, involved the recruitment of Shc and Grb2, and was mediated by RAFTK and PKC.

Abstract
1. Combined whole-cell patch clamp recording and confocal laser scanning microscopy of [Ca2+]i transients were performed on single PC12 cells to study any correlation between membrane currents induced by ATP and elevation in [Ca2+]i. ATP was applied by pressure from micropipettes near the recorded PC12 cells continuously superfused at a fast rate. 2. Brief (20 ms) pulses of ATP elicited monophasic inward currents and [Ca2+]i increases. Long applications (2 s) of ATP (5 mM) evoked peak currents which rapidly faded during the pulse and were followed by a large rebound current, interpreted as due to rapid desensitization and recovery of P2-receptors. The associated [Ca2+]i increase grew monotonically to a peak reached only after the occurrence of the current rebound, indicating that it is unlikely this cation has a role in fast desensitization. 3. Both membrane currents and [Ca2+]i transients were linearly dependent on holding membrane potential, suggesting that Ca2+ influx is the predominant cause of [Ca2+]i elevation. This view was supported by experiments carried out in Ca(2+)-free solution. 4. Brief pulses of ATP applied after a desensitizing pulse (2 s) of the same elicited smaller inward currents and [Ca2+]i rises indicating a role for [Ca2+]i in controlling slow desensitization of P2-receptors. 5. This notion was confirmed in experiments with various [Ca2+]i chelators which differentially affected slow desensitization in relation to their buffering capacity, while sparing fast receptor desensitization. 6. These results suggest a role for [Ca2+]i in slow rather than fast desensitization of P2-receptors, thus proposing this divalent cation as an intracellular factor able to provide an efficient and reversible control over receptor activity induced by ATP.

Abstract
Rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells were loaded with the fluorescent indicator Fura-2 and the effects of cadmium and nickel on the mobilization of calcium elicited by bradykinin and external ATP were studied. Cadmium and nickel ions provoked a concentration-dependent decrease of the initial peak and/or the subsequent plateau phase of bradykinin-induced Ca2+ transients in a different manner: whereas cadmium (0.5-2.5 microM) diminished the calcium peak without modifying the sustained plateau, nickel (25-1000 microM) only slightly lowered the peak but markedly decreased the plateau phase. In the case of ATP-stimulated calcium transients, which are without a sustained plateau, both cadmium and nickel ions decreased the peak signal. Possible consequences are discussed in terms of a disturbance of hormone-stimulated cell activation by cadmium and nickel.

Abstract
The ecto-ATPase activity of synaptosomes plasma membrane decays exponentially as a function of time from 0.35 +/- 0.05 to 0.08 +/- 0.02 mumol ATP hydrolyzed per min per mg synaptosome protein. The first-order rate constant of inactivation is dependent on the Mg-ATP concentration varying from 0.042 +/- 0.001 min-1 with 30 microM ATP up to 0.216 +/- 0.003 min-1 with 2 mM ATP. The non-hydrolyzable ATP analogue, beta-gamma-methyleneadenosine 5'-triphosphate, did not produce inactivation of the ecto-ATPase activity. Thus, the inactivation of the ecto-ATPase activity requires hydrolysis of ATP. Product inhibition can be excluded because ADP, AMP, adenosine and inorganic phosphate up to 1 mM had no effect on the inactivation of the ecto-ATPase. Concanavalin A partially protected against the ATP-dependent inactivation. The ecto-ATPase inactivation produced by Mg-ATP is partially reverted by centrifugation, removal of the supernatant and resuspension of synaptosomes in a fresh medium. This partial reversion occurs in parallel to the release to the supernatant of phophorylated protein(s) of 90-95 kDa. Alkaline phosphatase treatment fully reverts the ecto-ATPase inactivation. We conclude that the ATP-induced inactivation is mediated, at least partially, by phosphorylation of membrane proteins.

Abstract
Studies undertaken to compare the effects of Ap4A and ATP on altering intrasynaptosomal Ca2+ levels from deermouse brain reveal that both ligands induce a rapid influx of extracellular Ca2+. The Ca2+ profile elicited by 167 microM Ap4A is "spike-like" (half-time for decline to baseline, 19.1 +/- 1.2 sec), in contrast to the gradual decline observed with ATP (104.0 +/- 7.4 sec). DIDS (4-4'-diisothiocyano-2,2'-disulfonic acid stilbene) and suramin preincubation alter only the ATP-induced Ca2+ profile. Cross-desensitization studies indicate that prior application of ATP does not significantly affect the Ca2+ influx elicited by Ap4A, and that prior application of Ap4A does not affect the Ca2+ influx elicited by ATP. These results demonstrate that extracellular Ap4A and ATP elicit distinct intrasynaptosomal Ca2+ influx profiles, and suggest that these two nucleotides may be interacting with distinct purinoceptor subclasses or purinoceptor-effector complexes. Subjecting the synaptosomes simultaneously to depolarization and Ap4A, or to depolarization and ATP, induces an additive effect on Ca2+ influx. Preincubation with verapamil negates the effects of depolarization without modifying the ligand-elicited Ca2+ fluxes. These results indicate the presence of Ap4A and ATP ligand-gated channels that may function as modulators of neuronal activity.

Abstract
1. Micromolar levels of extracellular ATP increased cytosolic Na+ concentration ([Na+]i) as well as cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in PC12 cells. 2. Pretreatment of cells with tetrodotoxin, benzamil or thapsigargin did not alter the ATP-induced Na+ influx. 3. Increased extracellular Mg2+ concentration decreased the ATP effect. Furthermore, when the extracellular ATP pool was treated to contain corresponding calculated concentrations of ATP4-, the increase in [Na+]i stayed linked to the ATP4- concentration rather than to the total ATP concentrations in the stimulants. 4. Extracellular ATP does not create nonselective pores as shown by the fact that ethidium bromide does not enter the cells upon ATP stimulation. 5. Among the tested nucleotides, only adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate), 2-methylthio ATP and 2-chloro ATP also caused Na+ influx. 6. Reactive Blue 2 specifically decreased the ATP effect in a concentration-dependent manner. 7. The results suggest that extracellular ATP triggers Na+ influx through a P2 purinoceptor which is activated by ATP4- in PC12 cells.

Abstract
During the last few years, considerable progress has taken place in our knowledge of the molecular and functional properties of the various voltage-independent Ca2+ channels. In addition to the ionotropic receptor-channels (ROCs), that are not discussed in the present review, these channels include the SMOCs, activated via second messengers or other transducing processes directly triggered by receptor activation; and the SOCCs, activated as a consequence of depletion of the rapidly exchanging Ca2+ stores in the cytoplasm. In parallel, a pharmacological approach to the study of these channels has been developed, based primarily on heterogeneous drugs already known for different biological effects, and subsequently recognized as voltage-independent Ca(2+)-channel blockers. From the systematic analysis of the effects of these drugs new information has emerged about SMOCs and SOCCs function. In addition, pharmacological blockade of these channels appears to have beneficial therapeutic effects in pathological conditions such as tumoral cell growth, inflammation and immunity. At the moment the field is rapidly evolving, with major developments expected in the years ahead.

Abstract
The effects of the receptor-mediated Ca2+ entry blocker, SK&F 96365 on thapsigargin (TSG)-induced Ca2+ entry in fura-2-loaded HL-60 cells were studied. After Ca2+ release induced by 30 nM TSG, readmission of Ca2+ resulted in a sustained Ca2+ entry, which could be partially inhibited by 1-3 microM SK&F 96365. Surprisingly, SK&F 96365 at 30-100 microM, instead of causing a stronger inhibition, actually promoted Ca2+ entry. Furthermore, at 16-100 microM, this drug released intracellular Ca2+ on its own and induced Ca2+ entry upon readmission of Ca2+. This SK&F 96365-activated Ca2+ entry pathway was insensitive to nifedipine and, interestingly, accessible to Ni2+ and La3+. However, SK&F 96365 (30 microM) almost completely blocked (basal) Mn2+ entry and only caused 4.4% of the cells to be stained with trypan blue, strongly suggesting that the SK&F 96365-activated cation entry was not due to damage nor to a very nonselective permeabilization of the plasma membrane. These data indicate that low concentrations of SK&F 96365 inhibited Ca2+ entry and higher concentrations activated a novel cation entry pathway. Because these 2 opposing effects overlapped at an intermediate concentration (16 microM), which is within the range commonly used to block Ca2+ entry, cautious use of this Ca2+ antagonist appears to be warranted.

Abstract
Binding of adenosine 5',5" '-P1,P4-tetraphosphate (Ap4A) to a purinoceptor on nerve growth factor-differentiated (NGF) pheochromacytoma (PC12) cells modulated cytosolic Ca2+ levels. Both Ap4A and ATP elicited an influx of extracellular Ca2+, but both the sensitivity of the response and the flux profile were different. Preincubation of the PC12 cells with the compounds adenosine 5'-0-(2-thio)diphosphate (ADP-beta-S) and periodate-oxidized ATP had differential effects upon the Ap4A and ATP-induced response. These results indicate that Ap4A and ATP were either interacting with distinct purinoceptor subclasses or with the same purinoceptor with differing affinities. Simultaneous depolarization and application of either Ap4A or ATP to the PC12 cells induced an additive effect on the calcium flux. Preincubation with verapamil negated the effects of depolarization without significantly modifying the ligand-elicited Ca2+ fluxes, suggesting the presence of Ap4A ligand-gated channels that may function as modulators of PC12 cell function.

Abstract
Phospholipase A2 has recently been proposed as the effector enzyme involved in the receptor-mediated release of arachidonic acid (AA). Released AA and its metabolites have been demonstrated to play an important role in the regulation of cell functions. [3H]AA release from prelabeled PC12 cells was stimulated by a Ca ionophore such as ionomycin or A23187. Although ATP and its effective analog, adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotrisphosphate) (ATP gamma S), 2-methylthio ATP and 3'-O-(4-benzoyl)benzoyl ATP, did not stimulate [3H]AA release on their own, they did enhance Ca ionophore-stimulated [3H]AA release. The effect of ATP analogs was dose-dependent. ADP, UTP, GTP, ITP, alpha beta-methylene ATP, beta gamma-methylene ATP and 8-bromo ATP showed no effect or very limited effect. The effect of ATP gamma S was antagonized by suramin, a putative P2Y receptor antagonist. The effective ATP analogs also increased [Ca2+]i (cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration) via Ca2+ influx. However, the addition of 50 mM KCl or 10 microM bradykinin, which are well-known to increase [Ca2+]i by different pathways, did not stimulate [3H]AA release, either with or without the Ca ionophore. The addition of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, an activator of protein kinase C, showed no effect on [3H]AA release, either with or without the Ca ionophore. These data suggest that 1) ATP increased Ca ionophore-stimulated AA release via a P2Y-like ATP receptor, and that 2) the elevation of [Ca2+]i by ATP does not quantitatively explain the ATP-stimulated AA release in PC12 cells.
