Abstract
Impaired insulin release is a hallmark of type 2 diabetes and is closely related to chronically elevated glucose concentrations, known as “glucotoxicity.” However, the molecular mechanisms by which glucotoxicity impairs insulin secretion remain poorly understood. In addition to known kiss-and-run and kiss-and-stay fusion events in INS-1 cells, ultrafast Hessian structured illumination microscopy (Hessian SIM) enables full fusion to be categorized according to the newly identified structures, such as ring fusion (those with enlarged pores) or dot fusion (those without apparent pores). In addition, we identified four fusion intermediates during insulin exocytosis: initial pore opening, vesicle collapse, enlarged pore formation, and final pore dilation. Long-term incubation in supraphysiological doses of glucose reduced exocytosis in general and increased the occurrence of kiss-and-run events at the expense of reduced full fusion. In addition, hyperglycemia delayed pore opening, vesicle collapse, and enlarged pore formation in full fusion events. It also reduced the size of apparently enlarged pores, all of which contributed to the compromised insulin secretion. These phenotypes were mostly due to the hyperglycemia-induced reduction in syntaxin-1A (Stx-1A) and SNAP-25 protein, since they could be recapitulated by the knockdown of endogenous Stx-1A and SNAP-25. These findings suggest essential roles for the vesicle fusion type and intermediates in regulating insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells in normal and disease conditions.

Abstract
Changes in mitochondrial size and shape have been implicated in several physiologic processes, but their role in mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake regulation and overall cellular Ca2+ homeostasis is largely unknown. Here we show that modulating mitochondrial dynamics toward increased fusion through expression of a dominant negative (DN) form of the fission protein [dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1)] markedly increased both mitochondrial Ca2+ retention capacity and Ca2+ uptake rates in permeabilized C2C12 cells. Similar results were seen using the pharmacological fusion-promoting M1 molecule. Conversely, promoting a fission phenotype through the knockdown of the fusion protein mitofusin (MFN)-2 strongly reduced the mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake speed and capacity in these cells. These changes were not dependent on modifications in mitochondrial calcium uniporter expression, inner membrane potentials, or the mitochondrial permeability transition. Implications of mitochondrial morphology modulation on cellular calcium homeostasis were measured in intact cells; mitochondrial fission promoted lower basal cellular calcium levels and lower endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium stores, as indicated by depletion with thapsigargin. Indeed, mitochondrial fission was associated with ER stress. Additionally, the calcium-replenishing process of store-operated calcium entry was impaired in MFN2 knockdown cells, whereas DRP1-DN-promoted fusion resulted in faster cytosolic Ca2+ increase rates. Overall, our results show a novel role for mitochondrial morphology in the regulation of mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake, which impacts cellular Ca2+ homeostasis.-Kowaltowski, A. J., Menezes-Filho, S.

Abstract
Zinc plays an essential role in the regulation of pancreatic β cell function, affecting important processes including insulin biosynthesis, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, and cell viability. Mutations in the zinc efflux transport protein ZnT8 have been linked with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, further supporting an important role for zinc in glucose homeostasis. However, very little is known about how cytosolic zinc is controlled by zinc influx transporters (ZIPs). In this study, we examined the β cell and islet ZIP transcriptome and show consistent high expression of ZIP6 (Slc39a6) and ZIP7 (Slc39a7) genes across human and mouse islets and MIN6 β cells. Modulation of ZIP6 and ZIP7 expression significantly altered cytosolic zinc influx in pancreatic β cells, indicating an important role for ZIP6 and ZIP7 in regulating cellular zinc homeostasis. Functionally, this dysregulated cytosolic zinc homeostasis led to impaired insulin secretion. In parallel studies, we identified both ZIP6 and ZIP7 as potential interacting proteins with GLP-1R by a membrane yeast two-hybrid assay. Knock-down of ZIP6 but not ZIP7 in MIN6 β cells impaired the protective effects of GLP-1 on fatty acid-induced cell apoptosis, possibly via reduced activation of the p-ERK pathway. Therefore, our data suggest that ZIP6 and ZIP7 function as two important zinc influx transporters to regulate cytosolic zinc concentrations and insulin secretion in β cells. In particular, ZIP6 is also capable of directly interacting with GLP-1R to facilitate the protective effect of GLP-1 on β cell survival.

Abstract
The effect of a series of ligands on the binding of the lanthanide, europium (Eu), to rabbit intestinal cell membranes was investigated in vitro. When tested as Eu-ligand complexes (ratio of Eu:ligand, 1:2) of intermediate stability (log stability constant, log K1, for the reaction Eu + L = EuL, of about 7-12) such as Eu-citrate and Eu-nitrilotriacetate (NTA), Eu was available for uptake in a soluble form by intestinal brush-border membrane vesicles (BBMV) in phosphate- and bicarbonate-free solutions at pH 7.2. Ligands with lower log K1 did not maintain Eu in solution whilst those of higher affinity did not donate it to membranes. Generally, there was a clear relationship between log K1 of the Eu-ligand complex and the binding of Eu to BBMV. This relationship identifies ligands that can effectively donate Eu to vesicles under these conditions. BBMV uptake of Eu was due to binding at two sites. Binding to the diethylenetriaminepentaacetate (DTPA)-sensitive site predominated at 20 degrees C and uptake by the DTPA-insensitive site was enhanced at 37 degrees C. Only trace amounts of the bound Eu appeared to be internalized within the vesicles. In the presence of physiological concentrations of phosphate and bicarbonate in cell culture medium, Eu was precipitated from most complexes (at 1:2 and 1:5 Eu:ligand ratio) except DTPA and albumin. Eu precipitation could be prevented by increasing the ligand:Eu ratio. When isolated hepatocytes in cell culture medium were incubated with EuCl3, about 60% of Eu was bound to the cells; Eu-albumin was not bound by hepatocytes.

Abstract
The accumulation of 45Ca2+ into tilapia prolactin (PRL) tissue was examined under conditions which alter prolactin release. In initial experiments, PRL tissue was incubated in medium containing 12 microCi/ml 45Ca2+ in hyperosmotic medium (355 mOsmolal). Under these conditions, 45Ca2+ accumulated steadily, reaching a plateau within 15-20 min. Subsequent exposure to La3+, which displaces Ca2+ from superficial pools in a wide variety of tissues, rapidly (within 5 min) removed nearly 70% of the 45Ca2+ associated with the tissue. Following this initial removal of 45Ca2+, the level of 45Ca2+ in the PRL tissue remained constant, and is referred to as the La3(+)-resistant pool of Ca2+. This pool of Ca2+ is thought to reflect the entry rate of Ca2+ from extracellular sources. Prolactin tissue exposed to hyposmotic medium or to depolarizing [K+], which stimulates PRL release, significantly increased 45Ca2+ accumulation in this La3(+)-resistant pool. These results indicate that reduced osmotic pressure and depolarization may alter release from tilapia PRL cells, in part, through their ability to increase the entry of extracellular Ca2+.

Abstract
Lanthanum belongs to the group of elements known as "lanthanons," which also includes cerium, europium, promethium, and thulium. It is the most electropositive element of the rare earth group, is uniformly trivalent, and is similar in its chemical properties to the alkaline earth elements. The effects of this element and its compounds on cellular systems are of considerable interest because of their increasing use in industry and as a substitute or antagonist for calcium in a variety of cellular reactions. Lanthanum is also being employed extensively in studying anatomical barriers, membrane structure, and subcellular transport systems, particularly the calcium pathway.

Abstract
Regulation of insulin release, membrane potential, transmembrane 45Ca fluxes and cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration, [Ca2+]i, was examined using suspensions of transplantable NEDH rat insulinoma cells previously cultured for 2-3 days to eliminate necrotic tumour cells and counter prior hypoglycaemia. Insulinoma cells displayed a resting [Ca2+]i of 94 +/- 8 nM (n = 17) and released 104 +/- 15 ng insulin 10(-6) cells (n = 7) during 60 min incubations with uptake of 2.7 +/- 0.2 nmol 45Ca 10(-6) cells (n = 7). High concentrations of glucose did not affect membrane potential, transmembrane 45Ca fluxes, [Ca2+]i or insulin release by insulinoma cells. K+ at 25 mM depolarised the plasma membrane, induced a small increase in 45Ca efflux and increased [Ca2+]i by 65%. This modest action was not associated with demonstrable effects on 45Ca uptake and insulin release. The effect of 25 mMK+ on [Ca2+]i was counteracted by D-600, but this blocker of voltage-activated Ca2+ channels and verapamil lacked effects on transmembrane 45Ca fluxes and insulin release. The Ca2+-calmodulin antagonist, trifluoroperazine, was also without effect on 45Ca fluxes and insulin release. Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin increased [Ca2+]i, whereas A23187 and X537A did not affect transmembrane 45Ca fluxes. Moreover, insulin release was independent of extracellular Ca2+ over the range 0-20.4 mM despite marked affects on transmembrane 45Ca fluxes and a greater than 4-fold change of [Ca2+]i. Dibutyryl cyclic AMP increased insulin release by 55% without affecting transmembrane 45Ca fluxes or [Ca2+]i. The phosphodiesterase inhibitor, theophylline, also enhanced insulin release by 10-36% with no change of 45Ca uptake. The effectiveness of theophylline was independent of extracellular Ca2+ over the range 0-10.2 mM. These results indicate that inappropriate Ca2+ regulation is a key pathogenic feature underlying the inappropriate insulin secretion of rat insulinoma cells.

Abstract
Lanthanum (1.9 mM) has previously been shown to produce a massive increase in the frequency of spontaneous miniature junction potentials at the neuromuscular junctions of goldfish fin muscles. In fins where transmission has been blocked by previous injection of tetanus toxin and where there are few (if any) spontaneous miniature potentials, lanthanum treatment is able to restore a modest frequency. The results of parallel experiments in which the ultrastructure of the nerve endings has been investigated by electron microscopy are reported. In normal goldfish muscles, the lanthanum-induced increase in frequency is accompanied by depletion of synaptic vesicles. In contrast, there is no depletion in tetanus toxin-paralysed nerve endings subjected to lanthanum treatment, which parallels the relative insensitivity of the endings to activation by lanthanum. Of particular interest is the finding that the lanthanum treatment of the toxin muscles apparently causes accumulation of vesicles in a row just inside the terminal membrane, both at synaptic and non-synaptic positions. The results are discussed with respect to the mechanisms of transmitter release and to the actions of tetanus toxin and lanthanum.

Abstract
1. Acute effects of cations on 45Ca uptake and insulin release by transplantable rat insulinoma cells were examined after 2-3 days culture in RPMI-1640 containing 11.1 mM glucose. 2. At 2.6 mM Ca2+, rat insulinoma cells (greater than 95% viability) released 78-158 ng insulin/10(6) cells during 60 min incubation with uptake at 2.19-3.24 nmol 45Ca/10(6) cells. 3. Addition of 2 mM La3+, Co2+, Mn2+, Zn2+ or Ba2+ did not affect 45Ca uptake. Insulin release was also unaffected by these cations with the exception of 87% inhibition in the presence of La3+ or Zn2+. 4. Omission of 5.9 mM K+, 1.2 mM Mg2+, 115 mM Na+ or H+ (pH 8.5) did not affect 45Ca uptake or insulin release, irrespective of osmotic compensation using choline chloride or sucrose. Rat insulinoma cells were similarly unresponsive to addition of 30.9 mM K+, 12 mM Mg2+ or H+ (pH 6.3). 5. Omission of 2.6 mM Ca2+ (with or without addition of 1 mM EGTA) or addition of 20.5 mM Ca2+ did not affect insulin release. 6. The results indicate that rat insulinoma cells are little affected by cationic modifications which have profound effects on Ca2+ handling and insulin release by pancreatic beta-cells. Dysregulation of insulin release by insulinoma cells is associated with marked irregularities in the control of transmembrane Ca2+ fluxes and sensitivity to extracellular Ca2+.

Abstract
1 Exposure to ATP (2-200 microM) resulted in a prominent peak of 45Ca efflux, when beta-cell-rich pancreatic islets from ob/ob-mice were perifused with a Ca2+-deficient medium. ADP and the stable alpha/beta-methylene analogues of ATP and ADP also had stimulatory effects. 2 The nucleotide initiation of 45Ca efflux mimicked that obtained with carbachol both in requiring previous exposure to glucose and in being more pronounced after replacing extracellular Na+ by K+. 3 It was possible to induce repeated peaks of stimulated 45Ca efflux, when the exposure to ATP was interrupted with intervals of perifusion with glucose-containing media. 4 The observations are consistent with the existence of P2-purinoceptors in islets, suggesting that these receptors mediate a similar mobilization of calcium as noted when activating polyphosphoinositide breakdown with carbachol. In view of the high contents of ATP and ADP in the beta-cell secretory granules, activation of P2-purinoceptors should be considered as a possible mechanism for amplification of the initial insulin secretory response.

Abstract
beta-Cell-rich pancreatic islets were incubated for 60-120 min in the presence of 1 mM or 20 mM glucose and analysed with regard to their contents of magnesium and calcium and how these elements were distributed among subcellular fractions. The islets contained 42 mmol magnesium per kg protein with as much as 70 mmol per kg protein in the microsomal fraction. Both the total amount and intracellular distribution of magnesium remained unaffected after raising the glucose concentration of the incubation medium. The islet content of calcium was twice as high as that of magnesium, the mitochondria and secretory granules accounting for most of the calcium in the sedimentable fractions. In both organelles a substantial fraction of calcium was exchangeable as indicated from the incorporation of 45Ca during 90 min of incubation of the islets. When raising the glucose concentration to 20 mM the percentage exchange of calcium increased from 10 to 27 in the mitochondria and from 13 to 28 in the secretory granules. The glucose stimulation of 45Ca uptake was not associated with a statistically significant increase in the total amounts of calcium. However, in addition to stimulating calcium/calcium exchange, it cannot be excluded that glucose also induces a net accumulation of intracellular calcium in the beta-cells.

Abstract
1. Exposure to media deprived of Ca2+ resulted in prompt and transient stimulation of 45Ca efflux from beta cell-rich pancreatic islets microdissected from ob/ob-mice and to some extent also from the isolated neurohypophysis. 2. Particular high efflux rates were reached when the Ca2+-deficient medium contained EGTA, but there was no effect of the chelator on the total amount of radioactivity mobilized from the islets. 3. The removal of extracellular Ca2+ was less effective in promoting the 45Ca efflux in the absence of Na+ and no stimulatory response was seen in the presence of 1 mM-La3+. 4. The 45Ca washout was stimulated whether or not the media used for the loading or subsequent perifusion of the islets were supplemented with 20 mM-D-glucose. However, there was no response to a second exposure to a Ca2+-deficient medium even subsequent to redistribution of intracellular calcium induced by temporary lowering of the temperature. 5. It is suggested that the islet 45Ca released by the removal of extracellular Ca2+ originates from a distinct plasma membrane pool which is exchanged slowly compared to most of the calcium at the beta cell periphery.

Abstract
LaCl3 stimulated the initial rate of 45Ca2+ exchange measured under steady-state conditions in isolated liver cells. Cu2+ greater than La3+ = Fe3+ greater than Fe2+ = Zn2+ greater Ni2+ greater than Mn2+ also stimulated 45Ca2+ exchange. Compartmental analysis of 45Ca2+-exchange curves obtained in the presence or absence of La3+, and in the presence or absence of adrenaline, showed that the predominant effect of La3+ is to stimulate the inflow of Ca2+ to the cell from the medium. No evidence for an inhibition of Ca2+ outflow from the cell was obtained. In the presence of La3+, adrenaline caused no further stimulation of Ca2+ inflow to the cell. In the absence of adrenaline, La3+ increased the uptake of Ca2+ (measured by atomic-absorption spectroscopy) by isolated hepatocytes incubated at 1 degree C. The proposal that La3+ stimulates Ca2+ inflow to the liver cell by inducing a conformational change in the Ca2+-inflow transporter of the plasma membrane is briefly discussed.

Abstract
Angiotensin II stimulated 45Ca2+ release from bovine adrenal glomerulosa cells. It also decreased the influx of 45Ca2+ into glomerulosa cells. The effects were observed within 2 min of hormone addition and were blocked by Saralasin a competitive inhibitor of angiotensin. Des-Phe8-angiotensin II, a biologically inert analog, was inactive in this system. Angiotensin II also inhibited the influx of 133Ba2+ and 54Mn2+, whereas 51Cr6+ and 57Co2+ were unaffected. Alterations in 45Ca2+ fluxes were seen with concentrations of angiotensin that stimulate aldosterone biosynthesis in bovine glomerulosa cell preparations. These results suggest that calcium plays a key role in angiotensin-stimulated aldosteronogenesis.
