Pharmacol Ther 2022; 237:108164. [PMID: 35247518 DOI: 10.1016/j.pharmthera.2022.108164] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2021] [Revised: 01/29/2022] [Accepted: 02/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) proteins form a superfamily of cation channels that are expressed in a wide range of tissues and cell types. During the last years, great progress has been made in understanding the molecular complexity and the functions of TRP channels in diverse cellular processes, including cell proliferation, migration, adhesion and activation. The diversity of functions depends on multiple regulatory mechanisms by which TRP channels regulate Ca2+ entry mechanisms and intracellular Ca2+ dynamics, either through membrane depolarization involving cation influx or store- and receptor-operated mechanisms. Abnormal function or expression of TRP channels results in vascular pathologies, including hypertension, ischemic stroke and inflammatory disorders through effects on vascular cells, including the components of blood vessels and platelets. Moreover, some TRP family members also regulate megakaryopoiesis and platelet production, indicating a complex role of TRP channels in pathophysiological conditions. In this review, we describe potential roles of TRP channels in megakaryocytes and platelets, as well as their contribution to diseases such as thrombocytopenia, thrombosis and stroke. We also critically discuss the potential of TRP channels as possible targets for disease prevention and treatment.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23041967.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive cancer for which targeted therapeutic agents are limited. Growing evidence suggests that TNBC originates from breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs), and elucidation of the molecular mechanisms controlling BCSC proliferation will be crucial for new drug development. We have previously reported that the lysosphingolipid sphingosine-1-phosphate mediates the CSC phenotype, which can be identified as the ALDH-positive cell population in several types of human cancer cell lines. In this study, we have investigated additional lipid receptors upregulated in BCSCs. We found that lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptor 3 was highly expressed in ALDH-positive TNBC cells. The LPAR3 antagonist inhibited the increase in ALDH-positive cells after LPA treatment. Mechanistically, the LPA-induced increase in ALDH-positive cells was dependent on intracellular calcium ion (Ca2+), and the increase in Ca2+ was suppressed by a selective inhibitor of transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily C member 3 (TRPC3). Moreover, IL-8 production was involved in the LPA response via the activation of the Ca2+-dependent transcriptional factor nuclear factor of activated T cells. Taken together, our findings provide new insights into the lipid-mediated regulation of BCSCs via the LPA-TRPC3 signaling axis and suggest several potential therapeutic targets for TNBC.

Store-operated calcium entry in thrombosis and thrombo-inflammation. Cell Calcium 2018; 77:39-48. [PMID: 30530092 DOI: 10.1016/j.ceca.2018.11.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 48] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2018] [Revised: 10/31/2018] [Accepted: 11/14/2018] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
Cytosolic free calcium (Ca2+) is a second messenger regulating a wide variety of functions in blood cells, including adhesion, activation, proliferation and migration. Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE), triggered by depletion of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum, provides a main mechanism of regulated Ca2+ influx in blood cells. SOCE is mediated and regulated by isoforms of the ion channel proteins ORAI and TRP, and the transmembrane Ca2+ sensors stromal interaction molecules (STIMs), respectively. This report provides an overview of the (patho)physiological importance of SOCE in blood cells implicated in thrombosis and thrombo-inflammation, i.e. platelets and immune cells. We also discuss the physiological consequences of dysregulated SOCE in platelets and immune cells and the potential of SOCE inhibition as a therapeutic option to prevent or treat arterial thrombosis as well as thrombo-inflammatory disease states such as ischemic stroke.

N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor mediated calcium influx supports in vitro differentiation of normal mouse megakaryocytes but proliferation of leukemic cell lines. Res Pract Thromb Haemost 2017; 2:125-138.

Abstract
Background N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) contribute calcium influx in megakaryocytic cells but their roles remain unclear; both pro- and anti-differentiating effects have been shown in different contexts. Objectives The aim of this study was to clarify NMDAR contribution to megakaryocytic differentiation in both normal and leukemic cells. Methods Meg-01, Set-2, and K-562 leukemic cell lines were differentiated using phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA, 10 nmol L-1) or valproic acid (VPA, 500 μmol L-1). Normal megakaryocytes were grown from mouse marrow-derived hematopoietic progenitors (lineage-negative and CD41a-enriched) in the presence of thrombopoietin (30-40 nmol L-1). Marrow explants were used to monitor proplatelet formation in the native bone marrow milieu. In all culture systems, NMDARs were inhibited using memantine and MK-801 (100 μmol L-1); their effects compared against appropriate controls. Results The most striking observation from our studies was that NMDAR antagonists markedly inhibited proplatelet formation in all primary cultures employed. Proplatelets were either absent (in the presence of memantine) or short, broad and intertwined (with MK-801). Earlier steps of megakaryocytic differentiation (acquisition of CD41a and nuclear ploidy) were maintained, albeit reduced. In contrast, in leukemic Meg-01 cells, NMDAR antagonists inhibited differentiation in the presence of PMA and VPA but induced differentiation when applied by themselves. Conclusions NMDAR-mediated calcium influx is required for normal megakaryocytic differentiation, in particular proplatelet formation. However, in leukemic cells, the main NMDAR role is to inhibit differentiation, suggesting diversion of NMDAR activity to support leukemia growth. Further elucidation of the NMDAR and calcium pathways in megakaryocytic cells may suggest novel ways to modulate abnormal megakaryopoiesis.

Pathophysiological Significance of Store-Operated Calcium Entry in Megakaryocyte Function: Opening New Paths for Understanding the Role of Calcium in Thrombopoiesis. Int J Mol Sci 2016; 17:ijms17122055. [PMID: 27941645 PMCID: PMC5187855 DOI: 10.3390/ijms17122055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2016] [Revised: 11/28/2016] [Accepted: 11/28/2016] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Store-Operated Calcium Entry (SOCE) is a universal calcium (Ca2+) influx mechanism expressed by several different cell types. It is now known that Stromal Interaction Molecule (STIM), the Ca2+ sensor of the intracellular compartments, together with Orai and Transient Receptor Potential Canonical (TRPC), the subunits of Ca2+ permeable channels on the plasma membrane, cooperate in regulating multiple cellular functions as diverse as proliferation, differentiation, migration, gene expression, and many others, depending on the cell type. In particular, a growing body of evidences suggests that a tight control of SOCE expression and function is achieved by megakaryocytes along their route from hematopoietic stem cells to platelet production. This review attempts to provide an overview about the SOCE dynamics in megakaryocyte development, with a focus on most recent findings related to its involvement in physiological and pathological thrombopoiesis.

Abstract
Members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family of cation conducting channels are found in several tissues and cell types where they have different physiological functions. The canonical TRP channel 6 (TRPC6) is present on the platelet membrane and appears to participate in calcium influx during platelet activation. However, limited information is available on the importance of TRPC channels in megakaryocytes (MKs), the precursor cells of platelets. We determined the mRNA and protein expression of TRPC family members and investigated the role of TRPC6 for proliferation and differentiation of human MKs derived from CD34+ progenitor cells. TRPC6 transcripts were highly expressed during the differentiation of MKs and TRPC6 protein was detectable in MK cytoplasm by confocal staining. TRPC6 channel activity was modulated by pharmacological approaches using flufenamic acid (FFA) for activation and SKF96365 for inhibition. Upon FFA stimulation in MKs, an increase in intracellular calcium was observed, which was blocked by SKF96365 at 10 µM concentration. Incubation of MKs with SKF96365 resulted in a reduction in thrombopoietin-stimulated cell proliferation. Our results suggest a role of TRPC6 in calcium homeostasis during MK development, particularly for cell proliferation.

Abstract
Canonical transient receptor potential 6 (TRPC6) proteins assemble into heteromultimeric structures forming non-selective cation channels. In addition, many TRPC6-interacting proteins have been identified like some enzymes, channels, pumps, cytoskeleton-associated proteins, immunophilins, or cholesterol-binding proteins, indicating that TRPC6 are engaged into macromolecular complexes. Depending on the cell type and the experimental conditions used, TRPC6 activity has been reported to be controlled by diverse modalities. For instance, the second messenger diacylglycerol, store-depletion, the plant extract hyperforin or H2O2 have all been shown to trigger the opening of TRPC6 channels. A well-characterized consequence of TRPC6 activation is the elevation of the cytosolic concentration of Ca(2+). This latter response can reflect the entry of Ca(2+) through open TRPC6 channels but it can also be due to the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (operating in its reverse mode) or voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels (recruited in response to a TRPC6-mediated depolarization). Although TRPC6 controls a diverse array of biological functions in many tissues and cell types, its pathophysiological functions are far from being fully understood. This chapter covers some key features of TRPC6, with a special emphasis on their biological significance in kidney and blood cells.

Abstract
This chapter reviews the different options available for the use of ultrasound in the enhancement of fracture healing or in the reactivation of a failed healing process: LIPUS, shock waves and ultrasound-mediated delivery of bioactive molecules, such as growth factors or plasmids. The main emphasis is on LIPUS, or Low Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound, the most widespread and studied technique. LIPUS has pronounced bioeffects on tissue regeneration, while employing intensities within a diagnostic range. The biological response to LIPUS is complex as the response of numerous cell types to this stimulus involves several pathways. Known to-date mechanotransduction pathways involved in cell responses include MAPK and other kinases signaling pathways, gap-junctional intercellular communication, up-regulation and clustering of integrins, involvement of the COX-2/PGE2 and iNOS/NO pathways, and activation of the ATI mechanoreceptor. Mechanisms at the origin of LIPUS biological effects remain intriguing, and analysis is hampered by the diversity of experimental systems used in-vitro. Data point to clear evidence that bioeffects can be modulated by direct and indirect mechanical effects, like acoustic radiation force, acoustic streaming, propagation of surface waves, heat, fluid-flow induced circulation and redistribution of nutrients, oxygen and signaling molecules. One of the future engineering challenge is therefore the design of dedicated experimental set-ups allowing control of these different mechanical phenomena, and to relate them to biological responses. Then, the derivation of an 'acoustic dose' and the cross-calibration of the different experimental systems will be possible. Despite this imperfect knowledge of LIPUS biophysics, the clinical evidence, although most often of low quality, speaks in favor of the clinical use of LIPUS, when the economics of nonunion and the absence of toxicity of this ultrasound technology are taken into account.

Abstract
Prion diseases are neurodegenerative disorders where infectious prion proteins (PrP) accumulate in brain leading to aggregation of amyloid fibrils and neuronal cell death. The amino acid sequence 106-126 from prion proteins, PrP(106-126), is highly amyloidogenic and implicated in prion-induced pathologies. As PrP is known to be expressed in blood following leakage from brain tissue, we sought to investigate its biological effects on human platelets, which have been widely employed as 'peripheral' model for neurons. Our findings suggested that, PrP(106-126) (20μM) induced dramatic 30-fold rise in intracellular calcium (from 105±30 to 3425±525nM) in platelets, which was attributable to influx from extracellular fluid with comparatively less contribution from intracellular stores. Calcium mobilization was associated with 8-10-fold stimulation in the activity of thiol protease calpain that led to partial cleavage of cytoskeleton-associated protein talin and extensive shedding of microparticles from platelets, thus transforming platelets to 'activated' phenotype. Both proteolysis of talin and microparticle release were precluded by calpeptin, a specific inhibitor of calpain. As microparticles are endowed with phosphatidylserine-enriched surface and hence are pro-coagulant in nature, exposure to prion favored a thrombogenic state in the organism.

Abstract
In contrast to other Classical Transient Receptor Potential TRPC channels the function of TRPC1 as an ion channel is a matter of debate, because it is often difficult to obtain substantial functional signals over background in response to over-expression of TRPC1 alone. Along these lines, heterologously expressed TRPC1 is poorly translocated to the plasma membrane as a homotetramer and may not function on its own physiologically, but may rather be an important linker and regulator protein in heteromeric TRPC channel tetramers. However, due to the lack of specific TRPC1 antibodies able to detect native TRPC1 channels in primary cells, identification of functional TRPC1 containing heteromeric TRPC channel complexes in the plasma membrane is still challenging. Moreover, an extended TRPC1 cDNA, which was recently discovered, may seriously question results obtained in heterologous expression systems transfected with shortened cDNA versions. Therefore, this review will focus on the current status of research on TRPC1 function obtained in primary cells and a TRPC1-deficient mouse model.

Abstract
In vivo and in vitro studies have demonstrated the positive role that ultrasound can play in the enhancement of fracture healing or in the reactivation of a failed healing process. We review the several options available for the use of ultrasound in this context, either to induce a direct physical effect (LIPUS, shock waves), to deliver bioactive molecules such as growth factors, or to transfect cells with osteogenic plasmids; with a main focus on LIPUS (or Low Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound) as it is the most widespread and studied technique. The biological response to LIPUS is complex as numerous cell types respond to this stimulus involving several pathways. Known to-date mechanotransduction pathways involved in cell responses include MAPK and other kinases signaling pathways, gap-junctional intercellular communication, up-regulation and clustering of integrins, involvement of the COX-2/PGE2, iNOS/NO pathways and activation of ATI mechanoreceptor. The mechanisms by which ultrasound can trigger these effects remain intriguing. Possible mechanisms include direct and indirect mechanical effects like acoustic radiation force, acoustic streaming, and propagation of surface waves, fluid-flow induced circulation and redistribution of nutrients, oxygen and signaling molecules. Effects caused by the transformation of acoustic wave energy into heat can usually be neglected, but heating of the transducer may have a potential impact on the stimulation in some in-vitro systems, depending on the coupling conditions. Cavitation cannot occur at the pressure levels delivered by LIPUS. In-vitro studies, although not appropriate to identify the overall biological effects, are of great interest to study specific mechanisms of action. The diversity of current experimental set-ups however renders this analysis very complex, as phenomena such as transducer heating, inhomogeneities of the sound intensity in the near field, resonances in the transmission and reflection through the culture dish walls and the formation of standing waves will greatly affect the local type and amplitude of the stimulus exerted on the cells. A future engineering challenge is therefore the design of dedicated experimental set-ups, in which the different mechanical phenomena induced by ultrasound can be controlled. This is a prerequisite to evaluate the biological effects of the different phenomena with respect to particular parameters, like intensity, frequency, or duty cycle. By relating the variations of these parameters to the induced physical effects and to the biological responses, it will become possible to derive an 'acoustic dose' and propose a quantification and cross-calibration of the different experimental systems. Improvements in bone healing management will probably also come from a combination of ultrasound with a 'biologic' components, e.g. growth factors, scaffolds, gene therapies, or drug delivery vehicles, the effects of which being potentiated by the ultrasound.

Abstract
TRPC4 proteins comprise six transmembrane domains, a putative pore-forming region, and an intracellularly located amino- and carboxy-terminus. Among eleven splice variants identified so far, TRPC4α and TRPC4β are the most abundantly expressed and functionally characterized. TRPC4 is expressed in various organs and cell types including the soma and dendrites of numerous types of neurons; the cardiovascular system including endothelial, smooth muscle, and cardiac cells; myometrial and skeletal muscle cells; kidney; and immune cells such as mast cells. Both recombinant and native TRPC4-containing channels differ tremendously in their permeability and other biophysical properties, pharmacological modulation, and mode of activation depending on the cellular environment. They vary from inwardly rectifying store-operated channels with a high Ca(2+) selectivity to non-store-operated channels predominantly carrying Na(+) and activated by Gαq- and/or Gαi-coupled receptors with a complex U-shaped current-voltage relationship. Thus, individual TRPC4-containing channels contribute to agonist-induced Ca(2+) entry directly or indirectly via depolarization and activation of voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels. The differences in channel properties may arise from variations in the composition of the channel complexes, in the specific regulatory pathways in the corresponding cell system, and/or in the expression pattern of interaction partners which comprise other TRPC proteins to form heteromultimeric channels. Additional interaction partners of TRPC4 that can mediate the activity of TRPC4-containing channels include (1) scaffolding proteins (e.g., NHERF) that may mediate interactions with signaling molecules in or in close vicinity to the plasma membrane such as Gα proteins or phospholipase C and with the cytoskeleton, (2) proteins in specific membrane microdomains (e.g., caveolin-1), or (3) proteins on cellular organelles (e.g., Stim1). The diversity of TRPC4-containing channels hampers the development of specific agonists or antagonists, but recently, ML204 was identified as a blocker of both recombinant and endogenous TRPC4-containing channels with an IC50 in the lower micromolar range that lacks activity on most voltage-gated channels and other TRPs except TRPC5 and TRPC3. Lanthanides are specific activators of heterologously expressed TRPC4- and TRPC5-containing channels but can block individual native TRPC4-containing channels. The biological relevance of TRPC4-containing channels was demonstrated by knockdown of TRPC4 expression in numerous native systems including gene expression, cell differentiation and proliferation, formation of myotubes, and axonal regeneration. Studies of TRPC4 single and TRPC compound knockout mice uncovered their role for the regulation of vascular tone, endothelial permeability, gastrointestinal contractility and motility, neurotransmitter release, and social exploratory behavior as well as for excitotoxicity and epileptogenesis. Recently, a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the Trpc4 gene was associated with a reduced risk for experience of myocardial infarction.

Abstract
The canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) channels are Ca(2+)-permeable cationic channels controlling the Ca(2+) influx evoked by G protein-coupled receptor activation and/or by Ca(2+) store depletion. Here we investigate the involvement of TRPCs in the cell differentiation of lung cancer. The expression of TRPCs and the correlation to cancer differentiation grade in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were analyzed by real-time PCR and immunostaining using tissue microarrays from 28 patient lung cancer samples. The association of TRPCs with cell differentiation was also investigated in the lung cancer cell line A549 by PCR and Western blotting. The channel activity was monitored by Ca(2+) imaging and patch recording after treatment with all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA). The expression of TRPC1, 3, 4 and 6 was correlated to the differentiation grade of NSCLC in patients, but there was no correlation to age, sex, smoking history and lung cancer cell type. ATRA upregulated TRPC3, TRPC4 and TRPC6 expression and enhanced Ca(2+) influx in A549 cells, however, ATRA showed no direct effect on TRPC channels. Inhibition of TRPC channels by pore-blocking antibodies decreased the cell mitosis, which was counteracted by chronic treatment with ATRA. Blockade of TRPC channels inhibited A549 cell proliferation, while overexpression of TRPCs increased the proliferation. We conclude that TRPC expression correlates to lung cancer differentiation. TRPCs mediate the pharmacological effect of ATRA and play important roles in regulating lung cancer cell differentiation and proliferation, which gives a new understanding of lung cancer biology and potential anti-cancer therapy.

Abstract
Ion channels are involved in a large variety of cellular processes including stem cell differentiation. Numerous families of ion channels are present in the organism which can be distinguished by means of, for example, ion selectivity, gating mechanism, composition, or cell biological function. To characterize the distinct expression of this group of ion channels we have compared the mRNA expression levels of ion channel genes between human keratinocyte-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and their somatic cell source, keratinocytes from plucked human hair. This comparison revealed that 26% of the analyzed probes showed an upregulation of ion channels in hiPSCs while just 6% were downregulated. Additionally, iPSCs express a much higher number of ion channels compared to keratinocytes. Further, to narrow down specificity of ion channel expression in iPS cells we compared their expression patterns with differentiated progeny, namely, neurons and cardiomyocytes derived from iPS cells. To conclude, hiPSCs exhibit a very considerable and diverse ion channel expression pattern. Their detailed analysis could give an insight into their contribution to many cellular processes and even disease mechanisms.

Abstract
Ca(2+)influx might occur through K(+)-dependent Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger operating in reverse mode (rNCKX). In a cellular model different from platelets, an interaction between canonical transient receptor potential cation (TRPC) channels and NCX has been found. The aim of this study was to verify whether the TRPC/NCKX interaction operates in human platelets. Our results showed that the diacylglycerol (DAG) analogue, 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (OAG) induced rNCKX-mediated Ca(2+) influx through TRPC-mediated Na(+) influx. DAG-induced activation of TRPC/NCKX occurs independently of protein kinase C (PKC) activation, as PKC inhibitor did not modify OAG-mediated Ca(2+) influx. Moreover, as both rNCKX and TRPC inhibitors reduced OAG-induced platelet aggregation which, conversely, was increased by flufenamic acid, known to develop TRPC activity, it could be suggested that the TRPC/NCKX interaction has a role in OAG-dependent platelet aggregation.

Abstract
Immunophilins are FK506-binding proteins that have been involved in the regulation of calcium homeostasis, either by modulating Ca(2+) channels located in the plasma membrane or in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RE). We have investigated whether immunophilins would participate in the regulation of stored-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) in human platelets and MEG 01. Both cell types were loaded with fura-2 for determining cytosolic calcium concentration changes ([Ca(2+)](c)), or stimulated and fixed to evaluate the protein interaction profile by performing immunoprecipitation and western blotting. We have found that incubation of platelets with FK506 increases Ca(2+) mobilization. Thapsigargin (TG)-evoked, Thr-evoked SOCE and TG-evoked Mn(2+) entry resulted in significant reduction by treatment of platelets with immunophilin antagonists. We confirmed by immunoprecipitation that immunophilins interact with transient receptor potential channel 1 (TRPC1) and Orai1 in human platelets. FK506 and rapamycin reduced the association between TRPC1 and Orai1 with FK506 binding protein (52) (FKBP52) in human platelets, and between TRPC1 and the type II IP(3)R, which association is known to be crucial for the maintenance of SOCE in human platelets. FKBP52 role in SOCE activation was confirmed by silencing FKBP52 using SiRNA FKBP52 in MEG 01 as demonstrated by single cell configuration imaging technique. TRPC1 silencing and depletion of cell of TRPC1 and FKBP52 simultaneously, impair activation of SOCE evoked by TG in MEG 01. Finally, in MEG 01 incubated with FK506 we observed a reduction in TRPC1/FKBP52 coupling, and similarly, FKBP52 silencing reduced the association between IP3R type II and TRPC1 during SOCE. All together, these results demonstrate that immunophilins participate in the regulation of SOCE in human platelets.

Abstract
Ion channels are transmembrane proteins that play ubiquitous roles in cellular homeostasis and activation. In addition to their recognized role in the regulation of ionic permeability and thus membrane potential, some channel proteins possess intrinsic kinase activity, directly interact with integrins or are permeable to molecules up to ≈1000 Da. The small size and anuclear nature of the platelet has often hindered progress in understanding the role of specific ion channels in hemostasis, thrombosis and other platelet-dependent events. However, with the aid of transgenic mice and 'surrogate' patch clamp recordings from primary megakaryocytes, important unique contributions to platelet function have been identified for several classes of ion channel. Examples include ATP-gated P2X1 channels, Orai1 store-operated Ca2+ channels, voltage-gated Kv1.3 channels, AMPA and kainate glutamate receptors and connexin gap junction channels. Furthermore, evidence exists that some ion channels, such as NMDA glutamate receptors, contribute to megakaryocyte development. This review examines the evidence for expression of a range of ion channels in the platelet and its progenitor cell, and highlights the distinct roles that these proteins may play in health and disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelet adhesion, activation and aggregation at sites of vascular injury are essential processes for primary hemostasis. Elevation of the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration is a central event in platelet activation but the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) through Orai1 was shown to be the main Ca(2+) influx pathway in murine platelets, but there are additional non-store-operated Ca(2+) (non-SOC) and receptor operated Ca(2+) (ROC) channels expressed in the platelet plasma membrane. OBJECTIVE Canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) channel 6 is found both in human and murine platelets and has been proposed to mediate diacylglycerol (DAG) activated ROCE but also a role in the regulation of SOCE has been suggested. METHODS To investigate the function of TRPC6 in platelet Ca(2+) signaling and activation, we analyzed platelets from mice deficient in TRPC6 using a wide range of in vitro and in vivo assays. RESULTS In the mutant platelets, DAG activated Ca(2+) influx was found to be abolished. However, this did not significantly affect SOCE or agonist induced Ca(2+) responses. Platelet function in vitro and in vivo was also unaltered in the absence of TRPC6. CONCLUSION Our results indicate that DAG activated ROCE is mediated exclusively by TRPC6 in murine platelets, but this Ca(2+) influx has no major functional relevance for hemostasis and thrombosis. Further, in contrast to previous suggestions, based on studies with human platelets, TRPC6 appears to play an insignificant role in the regulation of SOCE in murine platelets.

Abstract
Agonist-evoked Ca(2+) entry has been reported to be enhanced in platelets from type 2 diabetic patients, which results in altered platelet responsiveness and cardiovascular complications. The present study is aimed to investigate whether store-operated divalent cation entry, a major Ca(2+) entry pathway, is altered in platelets from diabetic patients. Store-operated divalent cation entry was estimated by determination of Mn(2+) entry. Association between STIM1, Orai1, hTRPC1 and hTRPC6 was detected by co-immunoprecipitation and Western blotting. In the presence of specific purinergic and serotoninergic receptor antagonists Mn(2+) entry, induced by thapsigargin (TG), was reduced in platelets from diabetic donors as compared to healthy controls. Treatment with TG or the agonist thrombin enhanced co-immunoprecipitation of STIM1 with Orai1, hTRPC1 and hTRPC6 in platelets from healthy donors, a response that was significantly reduced in platelets from diabetic patients. Our results indicate that store-operated divalent cation entry is reduced in platelets from type 2 diabetic subjects, which is likely mediated by impairment of the association of STIM1 with the channel subunits Orai1, hTRPC1 and hTRPC6 and might be involved in the pathogenesis of the altered platelet responsiveness observed in diabetic patients.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are used therapeutically for hematological diseases and may also serve as a source for nonhematopoietic tissue engineering in the future. In other cell types, ion channels have been investigated as potential targets for the regulation of proliferation and differentiation. However, the ion channels of HSCs remain elusive. Here, we functionally characterized the ion channels of CD34(+) cells from human peripheral blood. Using fluorescence-activated cell sorting, we confirmed that the CD34(+) cells also express CD45 and CD133. In the CD34(+)/CD45(+)/CD133(high) HSCs, RT-PCR of 58 ion channel mRNAs revealed the coexpression of Kv1.3, Kv7.1, Nav1.7, TASK2, TALK2, TWIK2, TRPC4, TRPC6, TRPM2, TRPM7, and TRPV2. Whole-cell patch clamp recordings identified voltage-gated K(+) currents (putatively Kv1.3), pH-sensitive TASK2-like back-ground K(+) currents, ADP-ribose-activated TRPM2 currents, temperature-sensitive TRPV2-like currents, and diacylglycerol-analogue-activated TRPC6-like currents. Our results lend new insight into the physiological role of ion channels in HSCs, the specific implications of which require further investigation.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels are key players in calcium homeostasis and various regulatory processes in cell biology. Little is currently known about the TRPC subfamily members in mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), where they could play a role in cell proliferation. We report on the presence of TRPC1, 2, 4 and 6 mRNAs in MSC. Western blot and immunofluorescence staining indicate a membrane and intracellular distribution of TRPC1. Furthermore, the decrease in the level of TRPC1 protein caused by RNA interference is accompanied by the downregulation of cell proliferation. These results indicate that MSC express TRPC1, 2, 4 and 6 mRNA and that TRPC1 may play a role in stem cell proliferation.

Abstract
The present study was designed to analyze the molecular basis of the intracellular pH-dependent capacitative Ca2+ entry (CCE) of human platelets and megakaryocytic cells, specifically to test the hypothesis that members of the classical transient receptor potential (TRPC) protein family are involved in the CCE pathway that is promoted by intracellular alkalosis. Human platelets as well as the tested megakaryocytic cell lines (CMK cells, MEG-01 cells) and HEK293 cells displayed thapsigargin-induced CCE and responded to monensin with comparable elevation in intracellular pH. Promotion of CCE by monensin-induced intracellular alkalosis, however, was profound in mature platelets, moderate in CMK cells and lacking in MEG-01 cells as well as in HEK293 cells. Analysis of the TRPC expression pattern by immunoblotting revealed that mature platelets and CMK cells express TRPC4 along with TRPC1 and TRPC3, while TRPC4 is lacking in MEG-01 cells. HEK293 cells displayed CCE characteristics as well as lack of TRPC4 expression similar to MEG-01 cells. Over-expression of TRPC4 in HEK293 cells was found to result in a gain of pH-sensitivity of CCE with clearly detectable promotion of CCE in response to monensin. These results suggest that platelet CCE channel complexes contain TRPC4 as a molecular component that determines sensitivity of CCE to intracellular alkalosis.

Abstract
Agonist-induced elevation in cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations is essential for platelet activation in hemostasis and thrombosis. It occurs through Ca2+ release from intracellular stores and Ca2+ entry through the plasma membrane (PM). Ca2+ store release is a well-established process involving phospholipase (PL)C-mediated production of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), which in turn releases Ca2+ from the intracellular stores through IP3 receptor channels. In contrast, the mechanisms controlling Ca2+ entry and the significance of this process for platelet activation have been elucidated only very recently. In platelets, as in other non-excitable cells, the major way of Ca2+ entry involves the agonist-induced release of cytosolic sequestered Ca2+ followed by Ca2+ influx through the PM, a process referred to as store-operated calcium entry (SOCE). It is now clear that stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), a Ca2+ sensor molecule in intracellular stores, and the four transmembrane channel protein Orai1 are the key players in platelet SOCE. The other major Ca2+ entry mechanism is mediated by the direct receptor-operated calcium (ROC) channel, P2X1. Besides these, canonical transient receptor potential channel (TRPC) 6 mediates Ca2+ entry through the PM. This review summarizes the current knowledge of platelet Ca2+ homeostasis with a focus on the newly identified Ca2+ entry mechanisms.

Abstract
Mechanosensitivity is a crucial but poorly understood property of the sensory nervous system. Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels, which have been found to be responsible for the detection of other sensory stimuli such as temperature and pungent chemicals, have been suggested to also recognize stretch or pressure to cell membranes. TRPC1 is one candidate from studies in oocytes but evidence in native sensory neurons has been lacking. Therefore, we have measured an increase in intracellular Ca(2+) levels upon mechanical activation of native mouse dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons in culture using hypoosmolar buffer. Our results show that down regulation of TRPC1 with short hairpin RNA results in a 65% reduction of neurons with stretch activated responses. These results implicate a direct or indirect involvement of TRPC1 in the mechanosensitivity of DRG neurons.

Abstract
Substrate rigidity plays crucial roles in regulating cellular functions, such as cell spreading, traction forces, and stem cell differentiation. However, it is not clear how substrate rigidity influences early cell signaling events such as calcium in living cells. Using highly sensitive Ca(2+) biosensors based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), we investigated the molecular mechanism by which substrate rigidity affects calcium signaling in human mesenchymal stem cells (HMSCs). Spontaneous Ca(2+) oscillations were observed inside the cytoplasm and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) using the FRET biosensors targeted at subcellular locations in cells plated on rigid dishes. Lowering the substrate stiffness to 1 kPa significantly inhibited both the magnitudes and frequencies of the cytoplasmic Ca(2+) oscillation in comparison to stiffer or rigid substrate. This Ca(2+) oscillation was shown to be dependent on ROCK, a downstream effector molecule of RhoA, but independent of actin filaments, microtubules, myosin light chain kinase, or myosin activity. Lysophosphatidic acid, which activates RhoA, also inhibited the frequency of the Ca(2+) oscillation. Consistently, either a constitutive active mutant of RhoA (RhoA-V14) or a dominant negative mutant of RhoA (RhoA-N19) inhibited the Ca(2+) oscillation. Further experiments revealed that HMSCs cultured on gels with low elastic moduli displayed low RhoA activities. Therefore, our results demonstrate that RhoA and its downstream molecule ROCK may mediate the substrate rigidity-regulated Ca(2+) oscillation, which determines the physiological functions of HMSCs.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca2+ influx represents a major route by which cytosolic Ca2+ can be elevated during platelet activation, yet its molecular identity in this cell type remains highly controversial. Using quantitative RT-PCR analysis of candidate receptor-operated cation entry pathways in human platelets, we show a >30-fold higher expression of message for the recently discovered Orai1 store-operated Ca2+ channel, and also the store Ca2+ sensor STIM1, when compared to the non-selective cation channels TRPC1, TRPC6 and TRPM2. Orai1 and STIM1 gene transcripts were also detected at higher levels than TRPC1, TRPC6 and TRPM2 in primary murine megakaryocytes and human megakaryocytic cell lines. In direct electrophysiological recordings from murine megakaryocytes, Ca2+ ionophore-induced store depletion stimulated CRAC currents, which are known to require Orai1, and these overlapped with TRPC6-like currents following P2Y receptor activation. Together with recent transgenic studies, these data provide evidence for STIM1:Orai1 as a primary pathway for agonist-evoked Ca2+ influx in the platelet and megakaryocyte.

Abstract
Orai1 and hTRPC1 have been presented as essential components of store-operated channels mediating highly Ca(2+) selective I(CRAC) and relatively Ca(2+) selective I(SOC), respectively. STIM1 has been proposed to communicate the Ca(2+) content of the intracellular Ca(2+) stores to the plasma membrane store-operated Ca(2+) channels. Here we present evidence for the dynamic interaction between endogenously expressed Orai1 and both STIM1 and hTRPC1 regulated by depletion of the intracellular Ca(2+) stores, using the pharmacological tools thapsigargin plus ionomycin, or by the physiological agonist thrombin, independently of extracellular Ca(2+). In addition we report that Orai1 mediates the communication between STIM1 and hTRPC1, which is essential for the mode of activation of hTRPC1-forming Ca(2+) permeable channels. Electrotransjection of cells with anti-Orai1 antibody, directed toward the C-terminal region that mediates the interaction with STIM1, and stabilization of an actin cortical barrier with jasplakinolide prevented the interaction between STIM1 and hTRPC1. Under these conditions hTRPC1 was no longer involved in store-operated calcium entry but in diacylglycerol-activated non-capacitative Ca(2+) entry. These findings support the functional role of the STIM1-Orai1-hTRPC1 complex in the activation of store-operated Ca(2+) entry.

Abstract
AIMS To study the gene profile in cord blood (CB)-associated megakaryopoiesis. METHODS In vitro differentiation of megakaryocytes (Mks) was carried out using human CB CD34(+) cells under the stimulation of recombinant human interleukin-3, stem cell factor and thrombopoietin for 7 d, followed by thrombopoietin only for further 3 d. Lineage-specific differentiation of Mk was examined by the expression of CD41 using flow cytometry and confocal microscopy. Total cellular RNA was extracted from day-0 CD34(+), day-10 CD41(+) and CD41(-) populations were isolated by immunomagnetic sorting respectively. Microarray was performed, and the data were analyzed using the GeneChip Operating System, Spotfire software and Genomatix BiblioSphere. RESULTS Flow cytometric analysis showed 19.44 +/- 3.05% CD41(+) cells at day 10 of culture. The purity of CD41(+) population was enriched to 95.70 +/- 4.19% after sorting. Gene expression profiling revealed an upregulation of 285 and downregulation of 53 unique genes in the CD41(+) cells compared with CD41(-) and CD34(+) cells. Platelet-associated genes, such as thrombospondin 1, platelet glycoprotein IIIa, etc., were highly expressed in CD41(+) cells but not in CD41(-) cells and CD34(+) cells. Moreover, some genes that have not been reported to be associated with CB-derived megakaryopoiesis, such as Cbl-interacting proteins Sts-1, protocadherin 21, etc., are found to be highly expressed in the CD41(+) cells from this study. CONCLUSIONS This study reveals a global gene expression profile of in vitro human CB-derived megakaryopoiesis at day 10. Some of these genes may play regulatory roles during the development of CB-derived megakaryopoiesis.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) is a versatile regulator of TRP channels. We report that inclusion of a PIP2 analogue, PIP2 1,2-dioctanoyl, does not induce non-capacitative Ca2+ entry per se but enhanced Ca2+ entry stimulated either by thrombin or by selective depletion of the Ca2+ stores in platelets, the dense tubular system, using 10 nM TG, and the acidic stores, using 20 microM 2,5-di-(tert-butyl)-1,4-hydroquinone (TBHQ). Reduction of PIP2 levels by blocking PIP2 resynthesis with Li+ or introducing a monoclonal anti-PIP2 antibody, or sequestering PIP2 using poly-lysine, attenuated Ca2+ entry induced by thrombin, TG and TBHQ, and reduced thrombin-evoked, but not TG- or TBHQ-induced, Ca2+ release from the stores. Incubation with the anti-hTRPC1 antibody did not alter the stimulation of Ca2+ entry by PIP2, whilst introduction of anti-hTRPC6 antibody directed towards the C-terminus of hTRPC6 reduced Ca2+ and Mn2+ entry induced by thrombin, TG or TBHQ, and abolished the stimulation of Ca2+ entry by PIP2. The anti-hTRPC6 antibody, but not the anti-hTRPC1 antibody or PIP2, reduced non-capacitative Ca2+ entry by the DAG analogue 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol. In summary, hTRPC6 plays a role both in store-operated and in non-capacitative Ca2+ entry. PIP2 enhances store-operated Ca2+ entry in human platelets, most probably by stimulation of hTRPC6 channels.

Abstract
Ca2+ entry forms an essential component of platelet activation; however, the mechanisms associated with this process are not understood. Ca2+ entry upon receptor activation occurs as a consequence of intracellular store depletion (referred to as store-operated Ca2+ entry or SOCE), a direct action of second messengers on cation entry channels or the direct occupancy of a ligand-gated P2(Xi) receptor. The molecular identity of the SOCE channel has yet to be established. Transient receptor potential (TRP) proteins are candidate cation entry channels and are classified into a number of closely related subfamilies including TRPC (canonical), TRPV (vanilloid), TRPM (melastatin), TRPP (polycystin) and TRPML (mucolipins). From the TRPC family, platelets have been shown to express TRPC6 and TRPC1, and are likely to express other TRPC and other TRP members. TRPC6 is suggested to be involved with receptor-activated, diacyl-glycerol-mediated cation entry. TRPC1 has been suggested to be involved with SOCE, though many of the suggested mechanisms remain controversial. As no single TRP channel has the properties described for SOCE in platelets, it is likely that it is composed of a heteromeric association of TRP and related subunits, some of which may be present in intracellular compartments in the resting cell.

Abstract
Ion channel functional diversity can be achieved at the structural level by means of three main mechanisms: (1) transcriptional regulation and processing of mRNA, (2) heteromerization of different pore-forming channel subunits and (3) incorporation of regulatory subunits to the functional channel complex. In this review article we will focus on one of these mechanisms, alternative pre-mRNA splicing, in the context of the TRP superfamily of cation channels. For this purpose, the basic principles governing pre-mRNA splicing will be introduced and comprehensive tables classifying only published spliced-variants of TRP channels will be presented.

Abstract
The molecular identity of platelet Ca(2+) entry pathways is controversial. Furthermore, the extent to which Ca(2+)-permeable ion channels are functional in these tiny, anucleate cells is difficult to assess by direct electrophysiological measurements. Recent work has highlighted how the primary megakaryocyte represents a bona fide surrogate for studies of platelet signalling, including patch clamp recordings of ionic conductances. We have now screened for all known members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family of non-selective cation channels in murine megakaryocytes following individual selection of these rare marrow cells using glass micropipettes. RT-PCR detected messages for TRPC6 and TRPC1, which have been reported in platelets and megakaryocytic cell lines, and TRPM1, TRPM2 and TRPM7, which to date have not been demonstrated in cells of megakaryocytic/platelet lineage. Electrophysiological recordings demonstrated the presence of functional TRPM7, a constitutively active cation channel sensitive to intracellular Mg(2+), and TRPM2, an ADP-ribose-dependent cation channel activated by oxidative stress. In addition, the electrophysiological and pharmacological properties of the non-selective cation channels stimulated by the physiological agonist ADP are consistent with a major role for TRPC6 in this G-protein-coupled receptor-dependent Ca(2+) influx pathway. This study defines for the first time the principal TRP channels within the primary megakaryocyte, which represent candidates for Ca(2+) influx pathways activated by a diverse range of stimuli in the platelet and megakaryocyte.

Abstract
We have previously suggested that the human homologue of the Drosophila transient receptor potential protein, TRPC1, is involved in conducting store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) in human platelets since an antibody raised against the pore-forming region of TRPC1 inhibited SOCE. Here we have investigated plasma membrane expression of TRPC1 in human platelets and have probed for the presence of other TRPC proteins in these cells. Biotinylation revealed the presence of TRPC1 in the plasma membrane of resting platelets. Surface expression was not detectibly changed following Ca2+ store depletion or stimulation with thrombin. Western blotting demonstrated the presence of TRPC1, TRPC3, TRPC4, TRPC5 and TRPC6 in platelet lysates. TRPC1, TRPC4 and TRPC5 coimmunoprecipitated, as did TRPC3 and TRPC6. TRPC1, TRPC4 and TRPC5 were associated with detergent-resistant platelet membranes, from which they were partially released when the cells were cholesterol-depleted using methyl-beta-cyclodextrin. The distributions of TRPC3 and TRPC6 between soluble and membrane fractions were not affected by methyl-beta-cyclodextrin treatment. These results suggest that TRPC1, TRPC4 and TRPC5 form a heteromultimer associated with platelet lipid raft domains, whereas TRPC3 and TRPC6 associate independently of lipid rafts.

Abstract
The antiphospholipid syndrome is caused by autoantibodies directed against beta(2)-glycoprotein I (beta(2)GPI). Dimerization of beta(2)GPI results in an increased platelet deposition to collagen. We found that apolipoprotein E receptor 2' (apoER2'), a member of the low density lipoprotein receptor family, is involved in activation of platelets by dimeric beta(2)GPI. To identify which domain of dimeric beta(2)GPI interacts with apoER2', we have constructed domain deletion mutants of dimeric beta(2)GPI, lacking domain I (DeltaI), II (DeltaII), or V (DeltaV), and a mutant with a W316S substitution in the phospholipid (PL)-insertion loop of domain V. DeltaI and DeltaII prolonged the clotting time, as did full-length dimeric beta(2)GPI; DeltaV had no effect on the clotting time. Second, DeltaI and DeltaII bound to anionic PL, comparable with full-length dimeric beta(2)GPI. DeltaV and the W316S mutant bound with decreased affinity to anionic PL. Platelet adhesion to collagen increased significantly when full-length dimeric beta(2)GPI, DeltaI, or DeltaII (mean increase 150%) were added to whole blood. No increase was found with plasma beta(2)GPI, DeltaV, or the W316S mutant. Immunoprecipitation indicated that full-length dimeric beta(2)GPI, DeltaI, DeltaII, and the W316S mutant can interact with apoER2' on platelets. DeltaV did not associate with apoER2'. We conclude that domain V is involved in both binding beta(2)GPI to anionic PL and in interaction with apoER2' and subsequent activation of platelets. The binding site in beta(2)GPI for interaction with apoER2' does not overlap with the hydrophobic insertion loop in domain V.

Abstract
We have investigated effects of neuronal differentiation on hormone-induced Ca2+ entry. Fura-2 fluorescence measurements of undifferentiated SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, stimulated with methacholine, revealed the presence of voltage-operated Ca2+-permeable, Mn2+-impermeable entry pathways, and at least two voltage-independent Ca2+- and Mn2+-permeable entry pathways, all of which apparently contribute to both peak and plateau phases of the Ca2+ signal. Similar experiments using 9-cis retinoic acid-differentiated cells, however, revealed voltage-operated Ca2+-permeable, Mn2+-impermeable channels, and, more significantly, the absence or down-regulation of the most predominant of the voltage-independent entry pathways. This down-regulated pathway is probably due to CCE (capacitative Ca2+ entry), since thapsigargin also stimulated Ca2+ and Mn2+ entry in undifferentiated but not differentiated cells. The Ca2+ entry components remaining in methacholine-stimulated differentiated cells contributed to only the plateau phase of the Ca2+ signal. We conclude that differentiation of SH-SY5Y cells results in a mechanistic and functional change in hormone-stimulated Ca2+ entry. In undifferentiated cells, voltage-operated Ca2+ channels, CCE and NCCE (non-CCE) pathways are present. Of the voltage-independent pathways, the predominant one appears to be CCE. These pathways contribute to both peak and plateau phases of the Ca2+ signal. In differentiated cells, CCE is either absent or down-regulated, whereas voltage-operated entry and NCCE remain active and contribute to only the plateau phase of the Ca2+ signal.

Abstract
The difficulty of conducting electrophysiologic recordings from the platelet has restricted investigations into the role of ion channels in thrombosis and hemostasis. We now demonstrate that the well-established synergy between P2Y(1) and P2Y(12) receptors during adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-dependent activation of the platelet alpha(IIb)beta(3) integrin also exists in murine marrow megakaryocytes, further supporting the progenitor cell as a bona fide model of platelet P2 receptor signaling. In patch clamp recordings, ADP (30 microM) stimulated a transient inward current at -70 mV, which was carried by Na(+) and Ca(2+) and was amplified by phenylarsine oxide, a potentiator of certain transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels by phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate depletion. This initial current decayed to a sustained phase, upon which repetitive transient inward cation currents with pre-dominantly P2X(1)-like kinetics were super-imposed. Abolishing P2X(1)-receptor activity prevented most of the repetitive currents, consistent with their activation by secreted adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Recordings in P2Y(1)-receptor-deficient megakaryocytes demonstrated an essential requirement of this receptor for activation of all ADP-evoked inward currents. However, P2Y(12) receptors, through the activation of PI3-kinase, played a synergistic role in both P2Y(1) and P2X(1)-receptor-dependent currents. Thus, direct stimulation of P2Y(1) and P2Y(12) receptors, together with autocrine P2X(1) activation, is responsible for the activation of nonselective cation currents by the platelet agonist ADP.

Abstract
Mammalian TRP channels display heterogenous biophysical properties and are involved in a variety of signal transduction pathways. To carry out their diverse biological functions and to adapt these functions to changes of the environment, mechanisms to regulate their molecular structure are required. Transcriptional regulation and post-transcriptional RNA processing represent essential instruments to generate TRP channel variants with modified properties. TRP variants are expressed depending on the tissue and developmental state. They can show distinct biophysical properties and mechanisms of activation, and thereby determine channel function and malfunction in certain human diseases. In this review, we give an overview of the variants of a given TRP gene, with the focus on the TRPM subfamily, and discuss their relevance with respect to their function under physiological and pathological conditions.

Abstract
Chronic lithium treatment of B-lymphoblast cell lines (BLCLs) from bipolar-I disorder (BD-I) patients and healthy subjects ex vivo attenuates agonist- and thapsigargin-stimulated intracellular calcium (Ca(2+)) responses. As these findings suggest that chronic lithium treatment modifies receptor (ROCE) and/or store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) mechanisms, we determined whether chronic lithium treatment of BLCLs modified the expression of two members of the transient receptor potential channels (TRPC1 & 3), which participate in ROCE/SOCE. Chronic lithium treatment significantly reduced BLCL TRPC3 immunoreactivity (repeated-measures ANOVA, P=0.00005), with interaction effects of diagnosis (P=0.037) and sex (P=0.040). The lithium-induced decrease was greatest in BLCLs from female BD-I patients compared with those from healthy females (-27%) and with vehicle-treated BLCLs from female BD-I patients (-33%). However, lithium treatment did not affect TRPC1 and 3 mRNA levels, and TRPC1 immunoreactivity. Downregulation of TRPC3 may be an important mechanism by which lithium ameliorates pathophysiological Ca(2+) disturbances as observed in BD.

Abstract
We have previously suggested that store-mediated Ca2+ entry (SMCE) in human platelets may be activated by a secretion-like coupling model, involving de novo coupling of the type II inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP(3)RII) to the putative Ca2+ entry channel, hTRPC1. In other cells, hTRPC1 has been reported to be associated with cholesterol-rich lipid raft domains (LRDs) in the plasma membrane. Here we have shown that hTRPC1 is largely associated with detergent-resistant platelet membranes, from which it is partially released when the cells are depleted of cholesterol by treatment with methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (MBCD). MBCD treatment inhibited thapsigargin (TG)-evoked SMCE in a concentration-dependent manner, reducing it to 38.1+/-4.1% at a concentration of 10mM. Similarly, the Ca2+ entry evoked by thrombin (1unit/ml) was reduced to 48.2+/-4.5% of control following MBCD (10mM) treatment. Thrombin- and TG-evoked coupling between IP(3)RII and hTRPC1 was also reduced following cholesterol depletion. These results suggest that hTRPC1 is associated with LRDs in human platelets and that these domains are important for its participation in SMCE.

Abstract
Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) is required for polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) activation in response to G protein-coupled agonists. Some immunocytes express proteins homologous to the Drosophila transient receptor potential gene (trp) calcium channel. TRP proteins assemble into heterotetrameric ion channels and are known to support SOCE in overexpression systems, but the evidence that TRP proteins support SOCE and are functionally important in wild-type cells remains indirect. We therefore studied the expression and function of TRP proteins in primary human PMN. TRPC1, TRPC3, TRPC4, and TRPC6 were all expressed as mRNA as well as membrane proteins. Immunofluorescence microscopy demonstrated localization of TRPC1, TRPC3, and TRPC4 to the PMN cell membrane and their internalization after cytoskeletal reorganization by calyculin A (CalyA). Either TRPC internalization by CalyA or treatment with the inositol triphosphate receptor inhibitor 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borane resulted in the loss of PMN SOCE. Cytochalasin D (CytoD) disrupts actin filaments, thus preventing cytoskeletal reorganization, and pretreatment with CytoD rescued PMN SOCE from inhibition by CalyA. Comparative studies of CytoD and 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borane inhibition of PMN cationic entry after thapsigargin or platelet-activating factor suggested that SOCE occurs through both calcium-specific and nonspecific pathways. Taken together, these studies suggest that the multiple TRPC proteins expressed by human PMN participate in the formation of at least two store-operated calcium channels that have differing ionic permeabilities and regulatory characteristics.

Abstract
Members of the mammalian transient receptor potential (TRP) family form cation-permeable channels at the plasma membrane implicated in capacitative calcium influx after activation by either second-messenger-mediated pathways or store depletion, or both. This study shows that with the use of RT-PCR, Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry, resting astrocytes express TRPC4 at the cell membrane, particularly at sites of cell-to-cell contact. By confocal imaging and immunoelectron microscopy, we detected co-localization of TRPC4 with the scaffolding protein zonula occludens 1 (ZO-1), and demonstrated that immunoprecipitation with antibodies to ZO-1 brought down TRPC4, and vice-versa. It has been proposed that the targeting of TRPC4 to the cell membrane is dependent on the interaction of the C-terminal TRL motif with PDZ domains. Using transfection of astrocytes with myc-tagged TRPC4 or TRL-motif truncated TRPC4 (deltaTRL), we found that deltaTRL localized predominantly to a juxtanuclear compartment, whereas the wild-type protein showed cell surface distribution. Deletion of the TRL motif also reduced plasma membrane expression as assessed by cell surface biotinylation experiments. Using GST fusion proteins, we found that TRPC4 interacted with the PDZ1 domain of ZO-1 and that this was also dependent on the TRL motif. Thus, our data demonstrate that the PDZ-interacting domain of TRPC4 controls its cell surface localization. These data implicate TRPC4 in the regulation of calcium homeostasis in astrocytes, particularly as part of a signaling complex that forms at junctional sites between astrocytes.

Abstract
Differentiation of CD34(+) stem/progenitor cells into megakaryocytes is thought to be a uniform, unidirectional process, in which cells transform step by step from less differentiated precursor stages to more differentiated megakaryocytes. Here we propose the concept and present evidence based on single-cell analysis that differentiation occurs along multiple, partially asynchronous routes. In all CD34(+) cells cultured with thrombopoietin, surface appearance of glycoprotein IIIa (GPIIIa) preceded that of GPIb, indicating that the expression of these glycoproteins occurs in a timely ordered manner. Cellular F-actin content increased in parallel with GPIb expression. Only cells that expressed GPIb were polyploid, pointing to co-regulation of GPIb expression, actin cytoskeleton formation and polyploidization during megakaryocytopoiesis. On the other hand, most progenitor cells responded to thrombin but not to thromboxane A(2) analogue by rises in cytosolic [Ca(2+)](i). The appearance of thromboxane-induced responses during megakaryocytopoiesis was not strictly linked to glycoprotein expression, because cells showed responsiveness either before or after GPIb expression. The same non-strictly sequential pattern was observed for disappearance of the Ca(2+) response by prostacyclin mimetic; in some megakaryocytes it occurred before and in others after GPIb expression. Thus, megakaryocytic differentiation follows along independent routes that are either strictly sequential (GPIIIa and GPIb expression) or proceed at different velocities (Ca(2+) signal regulation).

Abstract
Depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores results in the activation of SMCE (store-mediated Ca2+ entry) in many cells. The mechanism of activation of SMCE is poorly understood. In human platelets, a secretion-like coupling model may be involved. This proposes that store depletion results in trafficking of portions of the endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma membrane, enabling coupling between proteins in the two membranes. In support of this, we have shown that, in human platelets, agonist-evoked Ca2+ store depletion results in de novo and reversible coupling of the Ins P3RII [type II inositol (1,4,5)trisphosphate receptor] with the putative Ca2+ entry channel hTRPC1 [human canonical transient receptor potential 1 (protein); Rosado, Brownlow and Sage (2002) J. Biol. Chem. 277, 42157-42163]. A crucial test of the hypothesis that this coupling activates SMCE is that it should occur rapidly enough to account for agonist-evoked Ca2+ entry. In the present study, we have used quenched- and stopped-flow approaches to determine the latencies of thrombin-evoked coupling of Ins P3RII with hTRPC1 and of thrombin-evoked bivalent cation entry using Mn2+ quenching of fura 2 fluorescence. Thrombin-evoked Mn2+ entry was detected with a latency of 0.81+/-0.07 s (S.E.M., n =7) or 1.36+/-0.09 s (S.E.M., n =7) at a concentration of 1.0 or 0.1 unit/ml respectively. Coupling between Ins P3RII and hTRPC1, assessed at 100 ms intervals, was first detected with a latency of 0.9 or 1.4 s after stimulation with thrombin at a concentration of 1.0 or 0.1 unit/ml respectively. These results support the hypothesis that de novo coupling of Ins P3RII with hTRPC1 could activate SMCE in human platelets.

Abstract
Microparticles are fragments released from the plasma membrane of most stimulated or apoptotic cells. After having long been considered inert cell debris, of possible value for the diagnosis of cell activation or death, there is increasing documented evidence that they can interact with neighboring or remote cells, in which case they acquire a pathophysiologic potential. On the one hand, deleterious microparticles stemming from activated cells can elicit an adverse response from other cells, themselves undergoing membrane vesiculation, leading to pathogenic amplification. On the other hand, since they are thought to reflect a balance between cell stimulation, proliferation, and death, it is conceivable that they are discerned as sensors for the maintenance of homeostasis in multicellular organisms. Because vesiculation is an integral part of the plasma-membrane remodeling process, with the transverse migration of procoagulant phosphatidylserine from the cytoplasmic to the exoplasmic leaflet as the central event, the majority of released microparticles are thought to fulfill a hemostatic function under physiologic conditions. This is particularly true when they originate from platelets, with possible deviation towards thrombosis when produced in excess. Owing to these procoagulant properties, the hemostasis laboratory offers the most appropriate tools for the assessment of the in vivo significance of microparticles.
