Abstract
Store-operated Ca²⁺ entry (SOCE) is critical for Ca²⁺ signaling in nonexcitable cells; however, its role in the regulation of cardiomyocyte Ca²⁺ homeostasis has only recently been investigated. The increased understanding of the role of stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) in regulating SOCE combined with recent studies demonstrating the presence of STIM1 in cardiomyocytes provides support that this pathway co-exists in the heart with the more widely recognized Ca²⁺ handling pathways associated with excitation-contraction coupling. There is now substantial evidence that STIM1-mediated SOCE plays a key role in mediating cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, both in vitro and in vivo, and there is growing support for the contribution of SOCE to Ca²⁺ overload associated with ischemia/reperfusion injury. Here, we provide an overview of our current understanding of the molecular regulation of SOCE and discuss the evidence supporting the role of STIM1/Orai1-mediated SOCE in regulating cardiomyocyte function.

Abstract
Stromal interaction molecule (STIM) proteins function in cells as dynamic coordinators of cellular calcium (Ca(2+)) signals. Spanning the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane, they sense tiny changes in the levels of Ca(2+) stored within the ER lumen. As ER Ca(2+) is released to generate primary Ca(2+) signals, STIM proteins undergo an intricate activation reaction and rapidly translocate into junctions formed between the ER and the plasma membrane. There, STIM proteins tether and activate the highly Ca(2+)-selective Orai channels to mediate finely controlled Ca(2+) signals and to homeostatically balance cellular Ca(2+). Details are emerging on the remarkable organization within these STIM-induced junctional microdomains and the identification of new regulators and alternative target proteins for STIM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Receptor-stimulated Ca(2+) influx is a critical component of the Ca(2+) signal and mediates all cellular functions regulated by Ca(2+). However, excessive Ca(2+) influx is highly toxic, resulting in cell death, which is the nodal point in all forms of pancreatitis. Ca(2+) influx is mediated by store-operated channels (SOCs). The identity and function of the native SOCs in most cells is unknown. METHODS Here, we determined the role of deletion of Trpc3 in mice on Ca(2+) signaling, exocytosis, intracellular trypsin activation, and pancreatitis. RESULTS Deletion of TRPC3 reduced the receptor-stimulated and SOC-mediated Ca(2+) influx by about 50%, indicating that TRPC3 functions as an SOC in vivo. The reduced Ca(2+) influx in TRPC3(-/-) acini resulted in reduced frequency of the physiologic Ca(2+) oscillations and of the pathologic sustained increase in cytosolic Ca(2+) levels caused by supramaximal stimulation and by the toxins bile acids and palmitoleic acid ethyl ester. Consequently, deletion of TRPC3 shifted the dose response for receptor-stimulated exocytosis and prevented the pathologic inhibition of digestive enzyme secretion at supramaximal agonist concentrations. Accordingly, deletion of TRPC3 markedly reduced intracellular trypsin activation and excessive actin depolymerization in vitro and the severity of pancreatitis in vivo. CONCLUSIONS These findings establish the native TRPC3 as an SOC in vivo and a role for TRPC3-mediated Ca(2+) influx in the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis and suggest that TRPC3 should be considered a target for prevention of pancreatic damage in acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
The goal of the present study is to unveil the gene expression profile specific to the biological processes of human breast epithelial cell invasion and migration using an MCF10A model genetically engineered to constitutively activate the H-ras or N-ras signaling pathway. We previously showed that H-Ras, but not N-Ras, induces MCF10A cell invasion/migration, whereas both H-Ras and N-Ras induce cell proliferation and phenotypic transformation. Thus, these cell lines provide an experimental system to separate the gene expression profile associated with cell invasion apart from cell proliferation/transformation. Analysis of whole human genome microarray revealed that 412 genes were differentially expressed among MCF10A, N-Ras MCF10A, and H-Ras MCF10A cells and hierarchical clustering separated 412 genes into four clusters. We then tested whether S100A8 and S100A9, two of the genes which are most highly up-regulated in an H-Ras-specific manner, play a causative role for H-Ras-mediated MCF10A cell invasion and migration. Importantly, small interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of S100A8/A9 expression significantly reduced H-Ras-induced invasion/migration. Conversely, the induction of S100A8/A9 expression conferred the invasive/migratory phenotype to parental MCF10A cells. Furthermore, we provided evidence of signaling cross-talk between S100A8/A9 and the mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways essential for H-Ras-mediated cell invasion and migration. Taken together, this study revealed S100A8/A9 genes as candidate markers for metastatic potential of breast epithelial cells. Our gene profile data provide useful information which may lead to the identification of additional potential targets for the prognosis and/or therapy of metastatic breast cancer.

Abstract
Store-operated CRAC channels, which are activated by the emptying of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) stores, are an important and widespread route for triggering rises in cytoplasmic Ca(2+). The cellular responses that are activated in response to Ca(2+) entry through CRAC channels are being dissected out, and recent evidence has established that CRAC channels can induce both short-term (safeguarding the Ca(2+) content of the endoplasmic reticulum, maintenance of cytoplasmic Ca(2+) oscillations, enzyme activation, secretion) and long-term (gene expression) changes in cells. CRAC channel activation is therefore capable of evoking a range of temporally distinct responses, highlighting the versatility of this ubiquitous Ca(2+) entry pathway.

Int J Biochem Cell Biol 2007; 39:93-108.

Abstract
We have recently reported that acetylcholinesterase expression was induced during apoptosis in various cell types. In the current study we provide evidence to suggest that the induction of acetylcholinesterase expression during apoptosis is regulated by the mobilization of intracellular Ca(2+). During apoptosis, treatment of HeLa and MDA-MB-435s cells with the calcium ionophore A23187 resulted in a significant increase in acetylcholinesterase mRNA and protein levels. Chelation of intracellular Ca(2+) by BAPTA-AM (1,2-bis-(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid-acetoxymethyl ester), an intracellular Ca(2+) chelator, inhibited acetylcholinesterase expression. A23187 also enhanced the stability of acetylcholinesterase mRNA and increased the activity of acetylcholinesterase promoter, effects that were blocked by BAPTA-AM. Perturbations of cellular Ca(2+) homeostasis by thapsigargin resulted in the increase of acetylcholinesterase expression as well as acetylcholinesterase promoter activity during thapsigargin induced apoptosis in HeLa and MDA-MB-435s cells, effects that were also inhibited by BAPTA-AM. We further demonstrated that the transactivation of the human acetylcholinesterase promoter by A23187 and thapsigargin was partially mediated by a CCAAT motif within the -1270 to -1248 fragment of the human acetylcholinesterase promoter. This motif was able to bind to CCAAT binding factor (CBF/NF-Y). These results strongly suggest that cytosolic Ca(2+) plays a key role in acetylcholinesterase regulation during apoptosis induced by A23187 and thapsigargin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The mechanism by which cholelithiasis increases the risk of acute pancreatitis remains obscure. Because bile acids can enter the pancreas either by luminal diffusion or by interstitial leakage during gallstone impaction and pancreatitis is associated with impaired Ca(2+) signaling, we examined the effect of bile acids on pancreatic acinar cell signaling and the associated intracellular events. METHODS Rat pancreatic acinar cells were isolated by collagenase digestion and the effects of bile acids on [Ca(2+)](i) signaling, cell survival, inflammatory signals, and the molecular and functional expressions of bile uptake transporters were analyzed. RESULTS Bile acids specifically inhibited the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) ATPase pump to chronically deplete part of the Ca(2+) stored in the endoplasmic reticulum. This in turn led to the activation of capacitative Ca(2+) entry and a chronic [Ca(2+)](i) load. The increase in [Ca(2+)](i) and Ca(2+) load activated the inflammation-associated signals of c-Jun amino-terminal kinases and NF-kappaB and led to cell death, which was inhibited by buffering [Ca(2+)](i) with 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N,N'-tetraacetic acid. A comprehensive molecular analysis of bile acid transporters revealed that pancreatic acinar cells express the bile uptake transporters Na(+)-taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide and organic anion transporting polypeptide in the luminal and basolateral membranes, respectively. Bile acid uptake into acinar cells was in part Na(+)-dependent and in part Na(+)-independent, suggesting that both transporters contribute to bile acid influx into acinar cells. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that bile acids can be transported into pancreatic acinar cells through specific membrane transporters and induce cell death by impairing cellular Ca(2+) signaling.

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

Abstract
The mechanisms responsible for intrapancreatic digestive enzyme activation as well as the relationship between that activation and cell injury during pancreatitis are not understood. We have employed an in vitro system in which freshly prepared pancreatic acini are exposed to a supramaximally stimulating concentration of the CCK analog caerulein to explore these issues. We find that in vitro trypsinogen activation depends on the continued presence of Ca2+ in the suspending medium and that it is half-maximal in the presence of 0.3 mM Ca2+. Caerulein-induced trypsinogen activation can be halted by removal of Ca2+ from the suspending medium or by chelation of intracellular Ca2+. Increasing intracellular Ca2+ with either ionomycin or thapsigargin does not induce trypsinogen activation. We have monitored cell injury by measuring the leakage of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) from acini and by quantitating intercalation of propidium iodide (PI) into DNA. Leakage of LDH and intercalation of PI in response to supramaximal stimulation with caerulein can be detected only after caerulein-induced trypsinogen activation has already occurred, and these indications of cell injury can be prevented by addition of a cell-permeant protease inhibitor. Our findings indicate that caerulein-induced intra-acinar cell activation of trypsinogen depends on a rise in intracellular Ca2+, which reflects entry of Ca2+ from the suspending medium. Intra-acinar cell activation of trypsinogen is an early as well as a critical event in pancreatitis. The subsequent cell injury in this model is mediated by activated proteases.

Abstract
Stimulation of human submandibular gland cells with carbachol, inositol trisphosphate (IP3), thapsigargin, or tert-butylhydroxyquinone induced an inward current that was sensitive to external Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]e) and was also carried by external Na+ or Ba2+ (in a Ca2+-free medium) with amplitudes in the order Ca2+ > Ba2+ > Na+. All cation currents were blocked by La3+ and Gd3+ but not by Zn2+. The IP3-stimulated current with 10 microM 3-deoxy-3-fluoro-D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate and 10 mM 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid in the pipette solution, showed 50% inactivation in <5 min and >5 min with 10 and 1 mM [Ca2+]e, respectively. The Na+ current was not inactivated, whereas the Ba2+ current inactivated at a slower rate. The protein kinase inhibitor, staurosporine, delayed the inactivation and increased the amplitude of the current, whereas the protein Ser/Thr phosphatase inhibitor, calyculin A, reduced the current. Thapsigargin- and tert-butylhydroxyquinone-stimulated Ca2+ currents inactivated faster. Importantly, these agents accelerated the inactivation of the IP3-stimulated current. The data demonstrate that internal Ca2+ store depletion-activated Ca2+ current (ISOC) in this salivary cell line is regulated by a Ca2+-dependent feedback mechanism involving a staurosporine-sensitive protein kinase and the intracellular Ca2+ pump. We suggest that the Ca2+ pump modulates ISOC by regulating [Ca2+]i in the region of Ca2+ influx.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to assess the mechanisms by which the caffeine-sensitive calcium stores of airway smooth muscle cells are refilled. Bovine trachealis cells were loaded with fura 2-AM (0.5 microM) for imaging of cytosolic calcium concentrations ([Ca2+]i) in the inner cytosol. After a first stimulation (S1) with caffeine, the response to a second stimulation (S2) depended on the presence of extracellular calcium during an intervening 80-s-long refilling phase. The S2-to-S1 ratio (S2/S1) was 0.11 +/- 0.05 (n = 13 cells) during calcium-free refilling but 0.72 +/- 0.04 (n = 36 cells) within 80 s of exposure to extracellular calcium. Maximum mean [Ca2+]i during the 80 s of refilling was not different for calcium-free (116 +/- 19 nM; n = 13 cells) versus extracellular calcium plus nickel (2 mM) (121 +/- 12 nM; n = 21 cells); despite this, significantly greater refilling (S2/S1 0.58 +/- 0.06; n = 24 cells) occurred in the presence of extracellular calcium plus nickel. The protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors genistein (100 microM) and ST-638 (50 microM) significantly decreased refilling over 80 s (S2/S1 0.35 +/- 0.06, n = 14 cells and 0.51 +/- 0.07, n = 14 cells, respectively). Daidzein (100 microM) had no effect on S2/S1. We concluded that [Ca2+]i of the inner cytosol during refilling correlated poorly with S2/S1 values and that, therefore, additional compartments not well detected by fura 2 contribute to refilling. The findings suggest that calcium influx for refilling is segregated from the inner cytosol of the cell, relatively insensitive to nickel, and regulated or modulated by protein tyrosine kinase activity.

Abstract
The phenomenon of store-activated Ca2+ inflow (capacitative Ca2+ entry) in which the depletion of Ca2+ in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) increases the probability of opening of store-operated Ca2+ channels (SOCs) located in the plasma membrane is ubiquitous in 'non-excitable' animal cells and is also found in some 'excitable' cells. At present, neither the structures of SOCs nor the mechanism(s) by which a decrease in Ca2+ in the lumen of the ER activates SOCs are well understood. This paper discusses the hypothesis that a decrease in the concentration of Ca2+ in restricted regions of the subplasmalemmal space (bounded by the plasma membrane and peripheral regions of the ER) is responsible for the activation of SOCs. The hypothesis rests on observations made by others that Ca2+ is a strong feed-back inhibitor of SOCs and of the endoplasmic reticulum (Ca(2+)+Mg2+)-ATPases (SERCAs), and on the concepts (developed previously by others) of a subplasmalemmal space and the directed flow of Ca2+ through SOCs into the lumen of the ER and from there to the deep cytoplasmic space. The way in which the hypothesis might explain the actions of agonists (acting via inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate) and thapsigargin (an inhibitor of SERCAs) in activating SOCs under physiological conditions is described. The proposed involvement of thapsigargin-insensitive SERCAs, and possible limitations of the hypothesis are discussed.

Abstract
Hormonal stimulation of Gq-protein coupled receptors triggers Ca2+ mobilization from internal stores. This is followed by a Ca2+ entry through the plasma membrane. Drosophila Trp and Trpl proteins have been implicated in Ca2+ entry and three mammalian homologues of Drosophila Trp/Trpl, hTrp1, hTrp3 and bTrp4 (also bCCE) have been cloned and expressed. Using mouse brain RNA as template, we report here the polymerase chain reaction-based cloning and functional expression of a novel Trp, mTrp6. The cDNA encodes a protein of 930 amino acids, the sequence of which is 36.8, 36.3, 43.1, 38.6, and 74. 1% identical to Drosophila Trp and Trpl, bovine Trp4, and human Trp1 and Trp3, respectively. Transient expression of mTrp6 in COS.M6 cells by transfection of the full-length mTrp6 cDNA increases Ca2+ entry induced by stimulation of co-transfected M5 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor with carbachol (CCh), as seen by dual wavelength fura 2 fluorescence ratio measurements. The mTrp6-mediated increase in Ca2+ entry activity was blocked by SKF-96365 and La3+. Ca2+ entry activity induced by thapsigargin was similar in COS cells transfected with or without the mTrp6 cDNA. The thapsigargin-stimulated Ca2+ entry could not be further stimulated by CCh in control cells but was markedly increased in mTrp6-transfected cells. Records of whole cell transmembrane currents developed in response to voltage ramps from -80 to +40 mV in control HEK cells and HEK cells stably expressing mTrp6 revealed the presence of a muscarinic receptor responsive non-selective cation conductance in Trp6 cells that was absent in control cells. Our data support the hypothesis that mTrp6 encodes an ion channel subunit that mediates Ca2+ entry stimulated by a G-protein coupled receptor, but not Ca2+ entry stimulated by intracellular Ca2+ store depletion.

Abstract
We have isolated and characterized a 12-kb mouse genomic DNA fragment containing the entire calreticulin gene and 2.14 kb of the promoter region. The mouse calreticulin gene consists of nine exons and eight introns, and it spans 4.2 kb of genomic DNA. A 1.8-kb fragment of the calreticulin promoter was subcloned into a reporter gene plasmid containing chloramphenicol acetyltransferase. This construct was then used in transient and stable transfection of NIH/ 3T3 cells. Treatment of transfected cells either with the Ca2+ ionophore A23187, or with the ER Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin, resulted in a five- to sevenfold increase of the expression of chloramphenicol acetyltransferase protein. Transactivation of the calreticulin promoter was also increased by fourfold in NIH/3T3 cells treated with bradykinin, a hormone that induces Ca2+ release from the intracellular Ca2+ stores. Analysis of the promoter deletion constructs revealed that A23187- and thapsigargin-responsive regions are confined to two regions (-115 to -260 and -685 to -1,763) in the calreticulin promoter that contain the CCAAT nucleotide sequences. Northern blot analysis of cells treated with A23187, or with thapsigargin, revealed a fivefold increase in calreticulin mRNA levels. Thapsigargin also induced a fourfold increase in calreticulun protein levels. Importantly, we show by nuclear run-on transcription analysis that calreticulin gene transcription is increased in NIH/3T3 cells treated with A23187 and thapsigargin in vivo. This increase in gene expression required over 4 h of continuous incubation with the drugs and was also sensitive to treatment with cycloheximide, suggesting that it is dependent on protein synthesis. Changes in the concentration of extracellular and cytoplasmic Ca2+ did not affect the increased expression of the calreticulin gene. These studies suggest that stress response to the depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores induces expression of the calreticulin gene in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
The present study was aimed at localization of plasma membrane (PMCA) and intracellular (SERCA) Ca2+ pumps and characterizing their role in initiation and propagation of Ca2+ waves. Specific and polarized expression of Ca2+ pumps was observed in all epithelial cells examined. Immunolocalization revealed expression of PMCA in both the basolateral and luminal membranes of all cell types. SERCA2a appeared to be expressed in the luminal pole, whereas SERCA2b was expressed in the basal pole and the nuclear envelope of pancreatic acini. Interestingly, SERCA2b was found in the luminal pole of submandibular salivary gland acinar and duct cells. These cells expressed SERCA3 in the basal pole. To examine the significance of the polarized expression of SERCA and perhaps PMCA pumps in secretory cells, we compared the effect of inhibition of SERCA pumps with thapsigargine and partial Ca2+ release with ionomycin on Ca2+ release evoked by agonists and Ca2+ uptake induced by antagonists. Despite their polarized expression, Ca2+ uptake by SERCA pumps and Ca2+ efflux by PMCA resulted in uniform reduction in [Ca2+]i. Surprisingly, inhibition of the SERCA pumps, but not Ca2+ release by ionomycin, eliminated the distinct initiation sites and propagated Ca2+ waves, leading to a uniform increase in [Ca2+]i. In addition, inhibition of SERCA pumps reduced the rate of Ca2+ release from internal stores. The implication of these findings to rates of Ca2+ diffusion in the cytosol, compartmentalization of Ca2+ signaling complexes, and mechanism of Ca2+ wave propagation are discussed.

Abstract
Imaging [Ca2+]i at high temporal resolution and measuring the properties of Ca2+ signaling in streptolysin O (SLO)-permeabilized cells were used to study the spacial organization of signaling complexes. Sequential stimulation of single cells within pancreatic acini with several Ca2+-mobilizing agonists revealed an agonist-specific pattern and propagation rate of Ca2+ waves in the same cells, with CCK8 stimulating the fastest and bombesin the slowest waves. More importantly, each agonist initiated the wave in a different region of the same cell. On the other hand, repetitive stimulation with the same agonist induced Ca2+ waves of the same pattern that were initiated from the same region of the cell. The agonist-specific Ca2+ signaling does not appear to be the result of coupling to different G proteins as infusion of an anti-Galphaq antibody into the cells through a patch pipette equally inhibited Ca2+ signaling by all agonists. Further evidence for compartmentalization of signaling complexes was developed in permeabilized cells. The time-dependent loss of Ca2+ signaling due to SLO permeabilization occurred in an agonist-specific manner in the sequence cabachol > bombesin > cholecystokinin. Signaling by all agonists could be completely restored with as low as 2 micro guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate (GTPgammaS). At this low concentration GTPgammaS recoupled inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production and Ca2+ release, rather than enhancing phospholipase C activity. Priming of Ca2+ signaling by GTPgammaS was agonist-specific. Guanosine 5'-O-(thio)diphosphate (GDPbetaS) uncoupled the ability of signaling complexes to release Ca2+ much better than stimulating inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production. The uncoupling of Ca2+ signaling by GDPbetaS was also agonist-specific. The combined findings of agonist-specific initiation sites of the Ca2+ wave and differential access of guanine nucleotides to signaling complexes suggest spacial compartmentalization of Ca2+ signaling complexes. Each complex must include a receptor, G protein, and phospholipase C that are coupled to a specific portion of the Ca2+ pool.

Abstract
Fura-2 fluorescence imaging was used to measure changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentration in individual N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells during repeated activation of M1 muscarinic receptors with carbachol. Ca2+ transients could be elicited repeatedly at 4 min intervals with little decrement as long as external Ca2+ was present. When the cells were bathed in Ca(2+)-free saline, however, the response amplitude decreased rapidly in a use-dependent fashion, indicating that external Ca2+, and presumably Ca2+ influx, is required for refilling Ca2+ stores during the interval between trials. The response amplitude also decreased during repeated stimulation in cells treated with the NO-synthase inhibitor L-NMMA or with the guanylyl cyclase inhibitor LY-83583 even when Ca2+ was present. Application of the membrane permeable cGMP analog 8-Br-cGMP reversed the effect of L-NMMA and promoted refilling in the continued presence of NO-synthase inhibitor. These results indicate that activation of the NO/cGMP pathway is necessary for refilling Ca2+ stores during muscarinic signaling. Evidence is also presented suggesting that the NO/cGMP pathway is involved in long term modulation of the content of Ca2+ stores.

Abstract
The least understood aspect of the agonist-induced Ca2+ signal is the activation and regulation of the Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ influx (CRAC) across the plasma membrane. To explore the possible role of heterotrimeric G proteins in the various regulatory mechanisms of CRAC, continuous renal epithelial cell lines stably expressing alpha 13 and the constitutively active alpha qQ209L were isolated and used to measure CRAC activity by the Mn2+ quench technique. Release of intracellular Ca2+ by agonist stimulation or thapsigargin was required for activation of CRAC in all cells. Although the size of the internal stores was similar in all cells, CRAC was 2-3-fold higher in alpha 13- and alpha qQ209L-expressing cells. However, the channel was differentially regulated in the two cell types. Incubation at low [Ca2+]i, inhibition of the NOS pathway, or inhibition of tyrosine kinase inhibited CRAC activity in alpha 13 but not alpha qQ209L cells. Treatment with okadaic acid prevented inhibition of the channel by low [Ca2+]i and the protein kinase inhibitors in alpha 13 cells. These results suggest that expression of alpha qQ209L dominantly activates CRAC by stabilizing a phosphorylated state, whereas expression of alpha 13 makes CRAC activation completely dependent on phosphorylation by several kinases. G proteins may also modulate CRAC activity independently of the phosphorylation/dephosphorylation state of the pathway to increase maximal CRAC activity. Furthermore, our results suggest a general mechanism for regulation of CRAC that depends on coupling of receptors to specific G proteins.

Abstract
We investigated the release of [3H]arachidonic acid ([3H]AA) and its relationship to the formation of [3H]inositol trisphosphate ([3H]IP3) elicited by substance P (SP) in prelabeled Chinese hamster ovary cells stably expressing the SP receptor. Activation of the SP receptor resulted in a concentration- and time-dependent stimulation of [3H]AA release. Half-maximal release was obtained at 10(-9) M, comparable to that for [3H]IP3 formation reported previously, and the maximal release effected by 0.1 microM SP was 8 to 10-fold above the basal value. Both the [3H]AA release and the [3H]-IP3 accumulation stimulated in the cells by 0.1 microM SP were concentration-dependently blocked with the specific SP receptor antagonist CP-96,345, with IC50 values of 2.5 and 0.4 microM, respectively. The time course of [3H]AA release showed a biphasic pattern: an initial rapid release essentially independent of Ca2+, followed by a sustained release markedly suppressed by removal of extracellular Ca2+ or chelation of intracellular Ca2+ with 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxyethane)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (BAPTA). While pretreatment with pertussis toxin (200 ng/mL, 6 hr) did not block [3H]IP3 formation, it did reduce [3H]AA release by 50% at 1 and 10 min after SP stimulation. Treatment of the cells with a phorbol ester, a protein kinase C activator, augmented the SP-stimulated [H]AA release, and sphingosine, a protein kinase C inhibitor, reversed the phorbol ester-potentiated [3H]AA release, but not the release stimulated by SP alone, suggesting a synergistic effect of protein kinase C on SP-stimulated AA release. These results demonstrate that SP, acting at the SP receptor, stimulates [3H]AA release via mechanisms that are (1) mediated by a pertussis toxin-sensitive G-protein, (2) dependent on extracellular Ca2+, and (3) enhanced by activation of protein kinase C.

Abstract
In the human submandibular ductal cell line (HSG) thapsigargin and carbachol stimulated Ca2+ release from the internal Ca2+ pool, resulting in the activation of capacitatively regulated Ca2+ entry (CRCE). This entry pathway was permeant to both Ca2+ and Mn2+, blocked by Ni2+ and insensitive to the muscarinic antagonist, atropine. Carbachol also stimulated an increase in cytosolic [Ca2+] in internal Ca(2+)-pool-depleted (i.e. thapsigargin-treated) cells which was dependent on the presence of external Ca2+ and blocked by Ni2+, demonstrating that it was due to Ca2+ entry. However, under the same experimental conditions, carbachol was unable to stimulate Mn2+ entry. Additionally, this latter carbachol-stimulated Ca2+ entry pathway was blocked by atropine. Pretreatment of HSG cells with AlF4-increased basal rates of Mn2+ entry due to CRCE activation, but attenuated carbachol-stimulated Ca2+ entry into thapsigargin-treated cells. The data suggest that two distinct divalent cation entry pathways are activated in muscarinic-receptor-stimulated HSG cells; a CRCE mechanism, permeable to both Mn2+ and Ca2+, and a second entry mechanism, permeable only to Ca2+. The latter does not depend on internal pool depletion, but appears to be regulated via G-protein activation.

Abstract
Extracellular ATP increases inositol phosphates, cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), arachidonic acid (AA) release, and iodide efflux in FRTL-5 cells. To examine the sequence of events in P2-purinergic receptor activation by ATP, a phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor (U-73122) and a phospholipase A2 (PLA2) inhibitor (U-26384), as well as 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'- tetraacetic acid (BAPTA) and downregulation of protein kinase C (PKC) were used. ATP increased inositol trisphosphate (IP3), [Ca2+]i, AA release, and 125I efflux dose dependently. U-73122 inhibited the IP3 and calcium increase but not AA; U-26384 prevented AA release but not the increase in calcium. Both agents inhibited iodide efflux. BAPTA prevented any ATP-induced increase in [Ca2+]i without affecting AA release or 125I efflux. PKC downregulation had no effect on ATP-stimulated AA release, but reduced 125I efflux. We conclude that ATP-induced iodide efflux involves parallel, not sequential, activation of PLC and PLA2. No increase in [Ca2+]i or PKC activity is required for PLA2 activation. In contrast, an increase in 125I efflux depends on PKC and PLA2 activities, but not an increase in [Ca2+]i.

Abstract
Cholecystokinin (CCK) analogs, JMV-180 and OPE, release Ca2+ from intracellular stores and induce oscillations in the concentration of cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i), but do not generate a detectable rise in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) levels. In contrast, high concentrations of CCK elevate InsP3, as well [Ca2+]i, to a peak which decreases to near basal levels without oscillations. The mechanisms which underlie inhibition of [Ca2+]i oscillations observed with high CCK concentrations are unclear, but are believed to involve a low-affinity CCK receptor state. Alternately, CCK analogs may be weak partial agonists of the phospholipase C pathway, whereas native CCK, as a full agonist of this pathway, stimulates low levels of protein kinase C (PKC) activity. Preincubation of acini with 1 nM 12 O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol 13-acetate (TPA) for 15 min at 37 degrees C did not affect OPE binding to acini, but abolished OPE-induced (at 1 microM) [Ca2+]i oscillations without affecting the initial [Ca2+]i spike. These transformed OPE-induced [Ca2+]i responses mimicked those induced by supramaximal CCK octapeptide (CCK-8) concentrations. Inhibition of [Ca2+]i oscillations by 1 nM TPA was reversed by the PKC inhibitor staurosporine (0.2 microM). After [Ca2+]i oscillations were induced with OPE or low concentrations of CCK-8 (20 pM), 1 nM TPA caused a gradual slowing of oscillation frequency over 15-20 min without affecting [Ca2+]i spike amplitude. In contrast, 1 microM TPA inhibited OPE binding and caused a more generalized inhibition of OPE- and CCK-evoked Ca2+ signals.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Consideration of the principal current models for agonist-induced activation of Ca2+ entry in electrically non-excitable cells suggests that it may be possible to distinguish between them on the basis of predicted differences in the temporal relationship(s) between intracellular Ca2+ release and the activation of Ca2+ entry. Measurements of changes in [Ca2+]i and Mn2+ quench in individual exocrine cells from the avian nasal gland indicate that, whereas Ins(1,4,5)P3-induced release of intracellular Ca2+ occurs within 3-5 s, the increase in Mn2+ quench is delayed by some 20-30 s. Mn2+ quench rate is similarly increased by thapsigargin, and is blocked by SK&F 96365, indicating that the increased Mn2+ quench observed genuinely reflects agonist-enhanced activity of the divalent cation entry pathway normally traversed by Ca2+. Additional experiments indicate that the observed delay is not due to inhibition of this pathway by elevated [Ca2+]i. Furthermore, the delay cannot be explained by the time required for Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 generation, which is essentially maximal within 10 s of agonist addition. It is concluded that the observed delay in the activation of the Ca2+ entry pathway is best explained by 'capacitative' models where increased entry requires the generation, and transmission to the plasma membrane, of an unknown messenger as a direct result of the depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores.

Abstract
Figure 1 summarizes our current concept of a signaling mechanism to explain agonist-induced Ca2+ entry in the pancreatic acinar cell. We propose that cGMP can modulate Ca2+ entry under conditions of internal Ca2+ store depletion and that the NO signaling system may be involved in coupling Ca2+ depletion to cGMP formation. The finding that Ca2+ entry after Ca2+ store depletion can occur with no elevation in [Ca2+]i37 raises the possibility that alternative signaling pathways may converge to stimulate cGMP formation or that additional messengers may activate plasmalemmal Ca2+ entry mechanisms in parallel.

Abstract
In the cells of higher eukaryotic organisms, there are several messenger pathways of intracellular signal transduction, such as the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate/Ca2+ signal, voltage-dependent and -independent Ca2+ channels, adenylate cyclase/cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate, guanylate cyclase/cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate, diacylglycerol/protein kinase C, and growth factors/tyrosine kinase/tyrosine phosphatase. These pathways are present in different cell types and impinge on each other for the modulation of the cell function. Ca2+ is one of the most ubiquitous intracellular messengers mediating transcellular communication in a wide variety of cell types. Over the last decades it has become clear that the activation of many types of cells is accompanied by an increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) that is thought to play an important part in the sequence of events occurring during cell activation. The Ca2+ signal can be divided into two categories: receptor- and voltage-operated Ca2+ signal. This review describes and integrates some recent views of receptor-operated Ca2+ signaling and crosstalk in the context of stimulus-secretion coupling.

Abstract
The pathway for refilling the intracellular Ca2+ stores of HL60 and U937 human leukaemia cells loaded with fura-2 has been investigated. On addition of external Ca2+ to cells with empty stores there was an increase in the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) which preceded the refilling of the stores. The increase in [Ca2+]i was faster than the refilling, by 3- to 15-fold, depending on the cell type. In measurements in single HL60 cells we found that the refilling of the stores correlated with the extent of the [Ca2+]i increase on addition of external Ca2+. The cells showing no [Ca2+]i increase were unable to refill their stores. The addition of Ni2+ to the extracellular medium prevented both the [Ca2+]i increase and the refilling of the stores. These results indicate that the limiting step for store refilling is the entry of Ca2+ from the extracellular medium to the cytosol. Hence, we conclude that extracellular Ca2+ cannot gain access directly to the intracellular Ca2+ stores in these cells, but must first enter the cytosol and be taken up from there into the stores.

Abstract
Calcium homeostasis has long been thought to be altered in transformed cells but mechanisms have not been established. In this study, the photoprotein, aequorin, was used to examine calcium regulation in 3T3 and SV40-transformed 3T3 cells. It was found that calcium transients induced by bradykinin or serum in serum-starved cells are lower and delayed in the transformed cells and decay kinetics are altered. These changes are not related to differences in cell cycle distribution. Though the serum transient is insensitive to nifedipine, verapamil, or lanthanum, removal of extracellular calcium accelerates transient decay in both cell types. Treatment of unstimulated cells with the ER Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor, thapsigargin, causes a 4-5-fold greater increase in [Ca2+]i in the transformed than in the nontransformed cells. Following serum stimulation, transformed cells still exhibit a large thapsigargin-induced increase in [Ca2+]i whereas the response in nontransformed cells is nearly abolished. When the 3T3 or SV3T3 cells are exposed to serum or thapsigargin in the absence of extracellular calcium and subsequently exposed to 11.8 mM Ca2+, a much greater influx of calcium again occurs in the SV3T3 cells. The observed changes in SV3T3 cells are most likely due to an alteration in a capacitative mechanism which regulates influx of calcium through the plasma membrane.

Abstract
The effects of cytochrome P-450 inhibitors of different chemical structures, including several imidazole antimycotics, SKF525A, 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid (ETYA), gossypol and nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), were tested on the entry of Ca2+ and Mn2+ induced either by emptying the intracellular Ca2+ stores with thapsigargin or by stimulation with platelet activating factor (PAF). Most of the drugs inhibited thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ and Mn2+ entry with the same affinity, with the striking exceptions of econazole and miconazole, which were 5- and 2-fold more potent to inhibit the thapsigargin-induced Mn2+ entry than to inhibit Ca2+ entry, respectively. Additionally, high doses of every drug (3-10-times the Ki) activated a pathway permeable to Mn2+ and Ni2+ but not to Ca2+. These findings indicate that Mn2+ entry data should be interpreted with caution and always be cross-checked with Ca2+ uptake measurements. Most of the drugs inhibited PAF-induced Mn2+ uptake with an affinity similar to that found for thapsigargin-induced Mn2+ uptake. PAF- and thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ uptake were also inhibited similarly by NDGA, SKF525A and gossypol, but PAF-induced Ca(2+)-uptake was inhibited about 5-fold more strongly by econazole and ETYA and two-fold more strongly by miconazole and clotrimazole. These findings suggest that the Ca2+/Mn2+ entry pathway opened by agonists in human neutrophils is the same that activates on emptying the Ca2+ stores and that cytochrome P-450 activity may be involved en the activation of the channels.

Abstract
In the present study we have investigated the mechanism of intracellular Ca2+ activity ([Ca2+]i) changes in HT29 cells induced by adenosine triphosphate (ATP), carbachol (CCH), and neurotensin (NT). [Ca2+]i was measured with the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator fura-2 at the single-cell level or in small cell plaques with high time resolution (1-40Hz). ATP and CCH induced not only a dose-dependent [Ca2+]i peak response, but also changes of the plateau phase. The [Ca2+]i plateau was inversely dependent on the ATP concentration, whereas the CCH-induced [Ca2+]i plateau increased at higher CCH concentrations. NT showed (from 10(-10) to 10(-7) mol/l) in most cases only a [Ca2+]i spike lasting 2-3 min. The [Ca2+]i plateau induced by ATP (10(-6) mol/l) and CCH (10(-5) mol/l) was abolished by reducing the Ca2+ activity in the bath from 10(-3) to 10(-4) mol/l (n = 7). In Ca(2+)-free bathing solution the [Ca2+]i peak value for all three agonists was not altered. Using fura-2 quenching by Mn2+ as an indicator of Ca2+ influx the [Ca2+]i peak was always reached before Mn2+ influx started. Every agonist showed this delayed stimulation of the Ca2+ influx with a lag time of 23 +/- 1.5 s (n = 15) indicating a similar mechanism in each case. Verapamil (10(-6)-10(-4) mol/l) blocked dose dependently both phases (peak and plateau) of the CCH-induced [Ca2+]i increase. Short pre-incubation with verapamil augmented the effect on the [Ca2+]i peak, whereas no further influence on the plateau was observed. Ni2+ (10(-3) mol/l) reduced the plateau value by 70%.

Abstract
Receptor-mediated Ca2+ entry was investigated in fura-2-loaded thyroid FRTL-5 cells. Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) attenuated the ATP-induced increase in intracellular free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i). In PKC down-regulated cells, the ATP-induced increase in [Ca2+]i was increased compared with control cells. This enhanced increase in [Ca2+]i was apparently dependent on extracellular Ca2+, as no difference was observed between control cells and PKC down-regulated cells in Ca(2+)-free buffer. Addition of Ca2+ to cells stimulated with ATP in Ca(2+)-free buffer rapidly increased [Ca2+]i. The increase was blocked by PMA. However, PKC down-regulation had no effect on the [Ca2+]i response. Stimulating FRTL-5 cells with thapsigargin increased [Ca2+]i. Addition of ATP after thapsigargin had almost no effect on [Ca2+]i. In PKC down-regulated cells, addition of ATP after thapsigargin evoked a substantial increase in [Ca2+]i which was dependent on extracellular Ca2+. The results indicate that PKC has a modulatory effect on the ATP-induced entry of Ca2+ in FRTL-5 cells.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) could empty intracellular Ca2+ stores and activate Ca2+ influx in thyroid FRTL-5 cells. Addition of CPA to Fura-2 loaded cells rapidly increased intracellular free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) which then stabilized at a new elevated steady state level. The initial increase was mainly dependent on the release of sequestered Ca2+, but was decreased in Ca(2+)-free buffer and in depolarized cells. The plateau phase was totally dependent on extracellular Ca2+. Addition of Ca2+ to cells exposed to CPA in Ca(2+)-free buffer rapidly increased [Ca2+]i. This influx was decreased in depolarized cells and inhibited by SKF 96365. Addition of CPA to cells prior to stimulating the cells with ATP totally abolished the ATP-induced increase in [Ca2+]i. In Ca(2+)-free buffer, addition of ATP prior to CPA decreased the response in [Ca2+]i evoked by CPA. The results show that emptying intracellular Ca2+ stores with CPA rapidly activates influx of Ca2+ in FRTL-5 cells. Furthermore, ATP and CPA appear to release Ca2+, at least in part, from the same intracellular Ca2+ store in these cells.

Abstract
The mechanism by which the depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores stimulates Ca2+ influx is poorly understood. However, the coupling of depletion to influx is broken during mitosis [Preston, S.F. et. al., (1991) Cell Regul., 2, 915-925]. Thus, in interphase HeLa cells, activation of the histamine H1 receptor, or incubation with thapsigargin, which inhibits the Ca(2+)-ATPase of storage vesicles and depletes Ca2+ stores, strongly stimulate Ca2+ influx. In mitotic cells, however, neither histamine nor thapsigargin stimulate Ca2+ influx. Since it has been found that okadaic acid treatment of interphase cells induces a mitotic-like state with respect to a number of other membrane processes, we have asked if okadaic acid might also uncouple Ca2+ depletion from stimulated influx. We show that okadaic acid specifically does suppress this coupling: thapsigargin and histamine deplete stores in control and okadaic-acid-treated HeLa cells, but after treatment with okadaic acid, stimulation of Ca2+ influx is barely detectable. This suggests that a protein phosphorylation/dephosphorylation event controls the coupling of Ca2+ stores to influx, and that there may be a physiological mechanism for control of the Ca2+ response to hormonal signals at the level of coupling.

Abstract
This study examined the mechanisms whereby alterations of intracellular pH (pHi) impact on free cytosolic calcium (Cai2+) in cultured rat aortic vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) assayed in the presence of HCO3/CO2. Rapid cell alkalinization, effected by the exposure to NH4Cl or removal of CO2 from the superfusate, produced a rapid increase in Cai2+. The rise in Cai2+ was markedly diminished when sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ stores had been depleted by prior exposure to arginine vasopressin (AVP) in Ca(2+)-free media or when SR release and reuptake of Ca2+ were blocked by the addition of 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid 8-(diethylamino)octyl ester (TMB-8), but was unaffected by the removal of external Ca2+ or inhibition of Ca2+ entry using NiCl2. Cell acidification also resulted in a rapid increase in Cai2+. This Cai2+ increase was most apparent when pHi was very low (< 6.6) and was unaffected by removal of external Ca2+ or NiCl2 addition. Unlike the effect of cell alkalinization, the increase in Cai2+ associated with cell acidification was not prevented by pretreatment with AVP or TMB-8. We conclude that, in cultured VSMC, acute intracellular alkalinization and, to a lesser extent, acidification result in release of Ca2+ from internal stores. Alkalinization increases Cai2+ by promoting its release from a store which is AVP and TMB-8 sensitive, most likely the SR. Cell acidification increases Cai2+ from an intracellular store(s) that is neither AVP nor TMB-8 sensitive. The increase in Cai2+ produced by cell acidification may be explained on the basis of cell buffering such that, as cytosolic H+ increases, it displaces Cai2+ from internal buffers with similar affinities for Ca2+ and H+.

Abstract
The role of calcium (Ca++) during spontaneous meiotic maturation of pig oocytes was examined. The hypothesis that elevations of endogenously derived intracellular Ca++ are prerequisite for germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) and progression through meiosis was tested. In addition, investigations were carried out to determine whether GVBD and meiotic progression were dependent upon extracellular Ca++ influx. Elevation of endogenously derived Ca++ was inhibited directly by loading cells with BAPTA, a specific Ca++-chelator, or indirectly with neomycin. Extracellular Ca++ influx was prevented by culturing oocytes in Ca(++)-deficient medium, with EGTA, or in the presence of the Ca++ channel blocker verapamil. Pretreatment with BAPTA/AM and subsequent culture in the absence of added exogenous Ca++ resulted in a similar inhibition of GVBD (1 microM BAPTA/AM vs. untreated, P < 0.01). After 4 h following follicular release, oocytes were no longer sensitive to BAPTA/AM treatment. Neomycin also significantly inhibited GVBD (0.5 mM neomycin vs. untreated, P < 0.05) as well as meiotic progression past metaphase I (0.25 mM neomycin vs. untreated, P < 0.05). The incidence of GVBD was not significantly affected when oocytes were simply cultured in Ca++ deficient medium or when cultured in the presence of EGTA or verapamil. However, progression of meiosis past GVBD to metaphase II was suppressed by reducing levels of Ca++ in the culture medium (0.68 mM Ca++ vs. 1.7 mM Ca++, P < 0.05) and by treatment with verapamil (0.25 mM verapamil vs. untreated, P < 0.05). Meiotic progression was completely blocked at metaphase I in the presence of 0.85 mM EGTA.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
We have previously reported that a component of ADP-evoked Ca2+ entry in human platelets appears to be promoted following the release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. Other agonists may employ a similar mechanism. Here we have further investigated the relationship between the state of filling of the Ca2+ stores and plasma membrane Ca2+ permeability in Fura-2-loaded human platelets. Ca2+ influx was promoted following store depletion by inhibitors of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase, thapsigargin (TG) and 2,5-di-(t-butyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone (tBuBHQ). Divalent cation entry was confirmed by quenching of Fura-2 fluorescence with externally added Mn2+. It has been suggested that cytochrome P-450 may couple Ca2+ store depletion to an increased plasma membrane Ca2+ permeability. In apparent agreement with this, Mn2+ influx promoted by TG and tBuBHQ, or by preincubation of cells in Ca(2+)-free medium, was inhibited by the imidazole antimycotics, econazole and miconazole, which inhibit cytochrome P-450 activity. Agonist-evoked Mn2+ influx was only partially inhibited by these compounds at the same concentration (3 microM). Econazole (3 microM) reduced the Mn2+ quench evoked by ADP by 38% of the control value and that evoked by vasopressin, platelet activating factor (PAF) and thrombin no more than 15% of control, 20 s after agonist addition. Stopped-flow fluorimetry indicated that econazole had no detectable effect on the early time course of agonist-evoked Mn2+ entry or rises in [Ca2+]i. These data confirm the existence of a Ca2+ entry pathway in human platelets which is activated by depletion of the intracellular Ca2+ stores. Further, the results support the suggestion that cytochrome P-450 may participate in such a pathway. However, any physiological role for the cytochrome or its products in agonist-evoked events appears to be in the long-term maintenance or restoration of store Ca2+ content, rather than in promoting Ca2+ influx in the initial stages of platelet Ca2+ signal generation.
