Abstract
Two-pore channels TPC1 and TPC2 are ubiquitously expressed pathophysiologically relevant proteins that reside on endolysosomal vesicles. Here, we review the electrophysiology of these channels. Direct macroscopic recordings of recombinant TPCs expressed in enlarged lysosomes in mammalian cells or vacuoles in plants and yeast demonstrate gating by the Ca2+-mobilizing messenger NAADP and/or the lipid PI(3,5)P2. TPC currents are regulated by H+, Ca2+, and Mg2+ (luminal and/or cytosolic), as well as protein kinases, and they are impacted by single-nucleotide polymorphisms linked to pigmentation. Bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloids, flavonoids, and several approved drugs demonstrably block channel activity. Endogenous TPC currents have been recorded from a number of primary cell types and cell lines. Many of the properties of endolysosomal TPCs are recapitulated upon rerouting channels to the cell surface, allowing more facile recording through conventional electrophysiological means. Single-channel analyses have provided high-resolution insight into both monovalent and divalent permeability. The discovery of small-molecule activators of TPC2 that toggle the ion selectivity from a Ca2+-permeable (NAADP-like) state to a Na+-selective (PI(3,5)P2-like) state explains discrepancies in the literature relating to the permeability of TPCs. Identification of binding proteins that confer NAADP-sensitive currents confirm that indirect, remote gating likely underpins the inconsistent observations of channel activation by NAADP.

Abstract
An increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) regulates a plethora of functions in the cardiovascular (CV) system, including contraction in cardiomyocytes and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), and angiogenesis in vascular endothelial cells and endothelial colony forming cells. The sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (SR/ER) represents the largest endogenous Ca2+ store, which releases Ca2+ through ryanodine receptors (RyRs) and/or inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (InsP3Rs) upon extracellular stimulation. The acidic vesicles of the endolysosomal (EL) compartment represent an additional endogenous Ca2+ store, which is targeted by several second messengers, including nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) and phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate [PI(3,5)P2], and may release intraluminal Ca2+ through multiple Ca2+ permeable channels, including two-pore channels 1 and 2 (TPC1-2) and Transient Receptor Potential Mucolipin 1 (TRPML1). Herein, we discuss the emerging, pathophysiological role of EL Ca2+ signaling in the CV system. We describe the role of cardiac TPCs in β-adrenoceptor stimulation, arrhythmia, hypertrophy, and ischemia-reperfusion injury. We then illustrate the role of EL Ca2+ signaling in VSMCs, where TPCs promote vasoconstriction and contribute to pulmonary artery hypertension and atherosclerosis, whereas TRPML1 sustains vasodilation and is also involved in atherosclerosis. Subsequently, we describe the mechanisms whereby endothelial TPCs promote vasodilation, contribute to neurovascular coupling in the brain and stimulate angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. Finally, we discuss about the possibility to target TPCs, which are likely to mediate CV cell infection by the Severe Acute Respiratory Disease-Coronavirus-2, with Food and Drug Administration-approved drugs to alleviate the detrimental effects of Coronavirus Disease-19 on the CV system.

Abstract
Lysosomes are acidic Ca2+ stores often mobilised in conjunction with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ stores. Glycyl-L-phenylalanine 2-naphthylamide (GPN) is a widely used lysosomotropic agent that evokes cytosolic Ca2+ signals in many cells. However, whether these signals are the result of a primary action on lysosomes is unclear in light of recent evidence showing that GPN mediates direct ER Ca2+ release through changes in cytosolic pH. Here, we show that GPN evoked rapid increases in cytosolic pH but slower Ca2+ signals. NH4Cl evoked comparable changes in pH but failed to affect Ca2+. The V-type ATPase inhibitor, bafilomycin A1, increased lysosomal pH over a period of hours. Acute treatment modestly affected lysosomal pH and potentiated Ca2+ signals evoked by GPN. In contrast, chronic treatment led to more profound changes in luminal pH and selectively inhibited GPN action. GPN blocked Ca2+ responses evoked by the novel nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate-like agonist, TPC2-A1-N. Therefore, GPN-evoked Ca2+ signals were better correlated with associated pH changes in the lysosome compared to the cytosol, and were coupled to lysosomal Ca2+ release. We conclude that Ca2+ signals evoked by GPN most likely derive from acidic organelles. Summary: Methods of releasing calcium from lysosomes are limited but characterization of the effects of GPN in primary cultured human fibroblasts confirmed that it probably targets acidic organelles.

Abstract
During the last 100 years, cell signaling has evolved into a common mechanism for most physiological processes across systems. Although the majority of cell signaling principles were initially derived from hormonal studies, its exponential growth has been supported by interdisciplinary inputs, e.g., from physics, chemistry, mathematics, statistics, and computational fields. As a result, cell signaling has grown out of scope for any general review. Here, we review how the messages are transferred from the first messenger (the ligand) to the receptor, and then decoded with the help of cascades of second messengers (kinases, phosphatases, GTPases, ions, and small molecules such as cAMP, cGMP, diacylglycerol, etc.). The message is thus relayed from the membrane to the nucleus where gene expression ns, subsequent translations, and protein targeting to the cell membrane and other organelles are triggered. Although there are limited numbers of intracellular messengers, the specificity of the response profiles to the ligands is generated by the involvement of a combination of selected intracellular signaling intermediates. Other crucial parameters in cell signaling are its directionality and distribution of signaling strengths in different pathways that may crosstalk to adjust the amplitude and quality of the final effector output. Finally, we have reflected upon its possible developments during the coming years.

Abstract
Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) is the newest discovered intracellular second messengers, which is able to release Ca2+ stored within endolysosomal (EL) vesicles. NAADP-induced Ca2+ signals mediate a growing number of cellular functions, ranging from proliferation to muscle contraction and differentiation. Recently, NAADP has recently been shown to regulate angiogenesis by promoting endothelial cell growth. It is, however, still unknown whether NAADP stimulates proliferation also in endothelial progenitor cells, which are mobilized in circulation after an ischemic insult to induce tissue revascularization. Herein, we described a novel approach to prepare NAADP-containing liposomes, which are highly cell membrane permeable and are therefore amenable for stimulating cell activity. Accordingly, NAADP-containing liposomes evoked an increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration, which was inhibited by NED-19, a selective inhibitor of NAADP-induced Ca2+ release. Furthermore, NAADP-containing liposomes promoted EPC proliferation, a process which was inhibited by NED-19 and BAPTA, a membrane permeable intracellular Ca2+ buffer. Therefore, NAADP-containing liposomes stand out as a promising tool to promote revascularization of hypoxic/ischemic tissues by favoring EPC proliferation. J. Cell.

Abstract
Lysosomes have traditionally been viewed as degradative organelles, although a growing body of evidence suggests that they can function as Ca2+ stores. Here we examined the function of these stores in hippocampal pyramidal neurons. We found that back-propagating action potentials (bpAPs) could elicit Ca2+ release from lysosomes in the dendrites. This Ca2+ release triggered the fusion of lysosomes with the plasma membrane, resulting in the release of Cathepsin B. Cathepsin B increased the activity of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9), an enzyme involved in extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling and synaptic plasticity. Inhibition of either lysosomal Ca2+ signaling or Cathepsin B release prevented the maintenance of dendritic spine growth induced by Hebbian activity. This impairment could be rescued by exogenous application of active MMP-9. Our findings suggest that activity-dependent exocytosis of Cathepsin B from lysosomes regulates the long-term structural plasticity of dendritic spines by triggering MMP-9 activation and ECM remodelling. Back-propagating action potentials induce Ca2+ release from lysosomes in neurons Lysosomal Ca2+ release triggers exocytosis of the lysosomal protease Cathepsin B Cathepsin B maintains activity-dependent dendritic spine growth by activating MMP-9

Abstract
Endo-lysosomes are acidic organelles that besides the role in macromolecules degradation, act as intracellular Ca(2+) stores. Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP), the most potent Ca(2+)-mobilizing second messenger, produced in response to agonist stimulation, activates Ca(2+)-releasing channels on endo-lysosomes and modulates a variety of cellular functions. NAADP-evoked signals are amplified by Ca(2+) release from endoplasmic reticulum, via the recruitment of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and/or ryanodine receptors through a Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+)- release (CICR) mechanism. The endo-lysosomal Ca(2+) channels activated by NAADP were recently identified as the two-pore channels (TPCs). In addition to TPCs, endo-lysosomes express another distinct family of Ca(2+)- permeable channels, namely the transient receptor potential mucolipin (TRPML) channels, functionally distinct from TPCs. TPCs belong to the voltage-gated channels, resembling voltage-gated Na(+) and Ca(2+) channels. TPCs have important roles in vesicular fusion and trafficking, in triggering a global Ca(2+) signal and in modulation of the membrane excitability. Depletion of acidic Ca(2+) stores has been shown to activate store-operated Ca(2+) entry in human platelets and mouse pancreatic β-cells. In human platelets, Ca(2+) influx in response to acidic stores depletion is facilitated by the tubulin-cytoskeleton and occurs through non-selective cation channels and transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels. Emerging evidence indicates that activation of intracellular receptors, situated on endo-lysosomes, elicits canonical and non-canonical signaling mechanisms that involve CICR and activation of non-selective cation channels in plasma membrane. The ability of endo-lysosomal Ca(2+) stores to modulate the Ca(2+) release from other organelles and the Ca(2+) entry increases the diversity and complexity of cellular signaling mechanisms.

Abstract
Extracellular stimuli evoke the synthesis of intracellular second messengers, several of which couple to the release of Ca2+ from Ca2+-storing organelles via activation of cognate organellar Ca2+-channel complexes. The archetype is the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and IP3 receptor (IP3R) on the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). A less understood, parallel Ca2+ signalling cascade is that involving the messenger nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) that couples to Ca2+ release from acidic Ca2+ stores [e.g. endo-lysosomes, secretory vesicles, lysosome-related organelles (LROs)]. NAADP-induced Ca2+ release absolutely requires organellar TPCs (two-pore channels). This review discusses how ER and acidic Ca2+ stores physically and functionally interact to generate and shape global and local Ca2+ signals, with particular emphasis on the two-way dialogue between these two organelles.

Abstract
A cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) kills an infected or tumorigenic cell by Ca2+-dependent exocytosis of cytolytic granules at the immunological synapse formed between the two cells. However, these granules are more than reservoirs of secretory cytolytic proteins but may also serve as unique Ca2+ signaling hubs that autonomously generate their own signals for exocytosis. This review discusses a selective role for the Ca2+-mobilizing messenger, nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) and its molecular targets, two-pore channels (TPCs), in stimulating exocytosis. Given that TPCs reside on the exocytotic granules themselves, these vesicles generate as well as respond to NAADP-dependent Ca2+ signals, which may have wider implications for stimulus-secretion coupling, vesicular fusion, and patho-physiology.

Abstract
Acidic organelles such as lysosomes serve as non-canonical Ca(2+) stores. The Ca(2+) mobilising messenger NAADP is thought to trigger local Ca(2+) release from such stores. These events are then amplified by Ca(2+) channels on canonical ER Ca(2+) stores to generate physiologically relevant global Ca(2+) signals. Coupling likely occurs at microdomains formed at membrane contact sites between acidic organelles and the ER. Molecular analyses and computational modelling suggest heterogeneity in the composition of these contacts and predicted Ca(2+) microdomain behaviour. Conversely, acidic organelles might also locally amplify and temper ER-evoked Ca(2+) signals. Ca(2+) microdomains between distinct Ca(2+) stores are thus likely to be integral to the genesis of complex Ca(2+) signals.

Abstract
Since the discovery of the Ca(2+) mobilizing effects of the pyridine nucleotide metabolite, nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP), this molecule has been demonstrated to function as a Ca(2+) mobilizing intracellular messenger in a wide range of cell types. In this review, I will briefly summarize the distinct principles behind NAADP-mediated Ca(2+) signalling before going on to outline the role of this messenger in the physiology of specific cell types. Central to the discussion here is the finding that NAADP principally mobilizes Ca(2+) from acidic organelles such as lysosomes and it is this property that allows NAADP to play a unique role in intracellular Ca(2+) signalling. Lysosomes and related organelles are small Ca(2+) stores but importantly may also initiate a two-way dialogue with other Ca(2+) storage organelles to amplify Ca(2+) release, and may be strategically localized to influence localized Ca(2+) signalling microdomains. The study of NAADP signalling has created a new and fruitful focus on the lysosome and endolysosomal system as major players in calcium signalling and pathophysiology.

Abstract
Nicotinic adenine acid dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) is one of the most potent endogenous Ca2+ mobilizing messengers. NAADP mobilizes Ca2+ from an acidic lysosome-related store, which can be subsequently amplified into global Ca2+ waves by calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) from ER/SR via Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptors or ryanodine receptors. A body of evidence indicates that 2 pore channel 2 (TPC2), a new member of the superfamily of voltage-gated ion channels containing 12 putative transmembrane segments, is the long sought after NAADP receptor. Activation of NAADP/TPC2/Ca2+ signaling inhibits the fusion between autophagosome and lysosome by alkalizing the lysosomal pH, thereby arresting autophagic flux. In addition, TPC2 is downregulated during neural differentiation of mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells, and TPC2 downregulation actually facilitates the neural lineage entry of ES cells. Here we propose the mechanism underlying how NAADP-induced Ca2+ release increases lysosomal pH and discuss the role of TPC2 in neural differentiation of mouse ES cells.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Human and animal studies suggest that estrogens are involved in the processing of nociceptive sensory information and analgesic responses in the central nervous system. Rapid pronociceptive estrogenic effects have been reported, some of which likely involve G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) activation. Membrane depolarization and increases in cytosolic calcium and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels are markers of neuronal activation, underlying pain sensitization in the spinal cord. Using behavioral, electrophysiological, and fluorescent imaging studies, we evaluated GPER involvement in spinal nociceptive processing. Intrathecal challenging of mice with the GPER agonist G-1 results in pain-related behaviors. GPER antagonism with G15 reduces the G-1-induced response. Electrophysiological recordings from superficial dorsal horn neurons indicate neuronal membrane depolarization with G-1 application, which is G15 sensitive. In cultured spinal sensory neurons, G-1 increases intracellular calcium concentration and induces mitochondrial and cytosolic ROS accumulation. In the presence of G15, G-1 does not elicit the calcium and ROS responses, confirming specific GPER involvement in this process. Cytosolic calcium concentration elevates faster and with higher amplitude following G-1 intracellular microinjections compared to extracellular exposure, suggesting subcellular GPER functionality. Thus, GPER activation results in spinal nociception, and the downstream mechanisms involve cytosolic calcium increase, ROS accumulation, and neuronal membrane depolarization. PERSPECTIVE Our results suggest that GPER modulates pain processing in spinal sensory neurons via cytosolic calcium increase and ROS accumulation. These findings extend the current knowledge on GPER involvement in physiology and disease, providing the first evidence of its pronociceptive effects at central levels and characterizing some of the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
Platelets play a vital role in maintaining haemostasis. Human platelet activation depends on Ca2+ release, leading to cell activation, granule secretion and aggregation. NAADP (nicotinic acid-adenine dinucleotide phosphate) is a Ca2+-releasing second messenger that acts on acidic Ca2+ stores and is used by a number of mammalian systems. In human platelets, NAADP has been shown to release Ca2+ in permeabilized human platelets and contribute to thrombin-mediated platelet activation. In the present study, we have further characterized NAADP-mediated Ca2+ release in human platelets in response to both thrombin and the GPVI (glycoprotein VI)-specific agonist CRP (collagen-related peptide). Using a radioligand-binding assay, we reveal an NAADP-binding site in human platelets, indicative of a platelet NAADP receptor. We also found that NAADP releases loaded 45Ca2+ from intracellular stores and that total platelet Ca2+ release is inhibited by the proton ionophore nigericin. Ned-19, a novel cell-permeant NAADP receptor antagonist, competes for the NAADP-binding site in platelets and can inhibit both thrombin- and CRP-induced Ca2+ release in human platelets. Ned-19 has an inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation, secretion and spreading. In addition, Ned-19 extends the clotting time in whole-blood samples. We conclude that NAADP plays an important role in human platelet function. Furthermore, the development of Ned-19 as an NAADP receptor antagonist provides a potential avenue for platelet-targeted therapy and the regulation of thrombosis.

Abstract
Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) is a potent intracellular Ca(2+)-mobilising messenger. Much evidence indicates that NAADP targets novel Ca(2+) channels located on acidic organelles but the identity of these channels has remained obscure. Recent studies have converged on a novel class of ion channels, the two-pore channels (TPCs) as likely molecular targets. The location of these channels to the endo-lysosomal system and their sensitivity to NAADP match closely those of endogenous NAADP-sensitive channels in both mammalian cells and sea urchin eggs, where the effects of NAADP were discovered. Moreover, the functional coupling of TPCs to archetypal endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca(2+) channels is also matched. Biophysical analysis in conjunction with site-directed mutagenesis demonstrates that TPCs are pore-forming subunits of NAADP-gated ion channels. TPCs have a unique two-repeat structure, are regulated by N-linked glycosylation and harbor an endo-lysosomal targeting motif in their N-terminus. Knockdown studies have shown TPCs to regulate smooth muscle contraction, differentiation and endothelial cell activation consistent with previous studies implicating NAADP in these processes. Thus multiple lines of evidence indicate that TPCs are the likely long sought targets for NAADP.

Abstract
Calcium signaling is essential for the differentiation of many cell types, including skeletal muscle cells, but its mechanisms remain elusive. Here we demonstrate a crucial role for nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) signaling in skeletal muscle differentiation. Although the inositol trisphosphate pathway may have a partial role to play in this process, the ryanodine signaling cascade is not involved. In both skeletal muscle precursors and C2C12, cells interfering with NAADP signaling prevented differentiation, whereas promoting NAADP signaling potentiated differentiation. Moreover, siRNA knockdown of two-pore channels, the target of NAADP, attenuated differentiation. The data presented here strongly suggest that in myoblasts, NAADP acts at acidic organelles on the recently discovered two-pore channels to promote differentiation.

Abstract
Two-pore channels (TPCs or TPCNs) are novel members of the large superfamily of voltage-gated cation channels with slightly higher sequence homology to the pore-forming subunits of voltage-gated Ca(2+) and Na(+) channels than most other members. Recent studies demonstrate that TPCs locate to endosomes and lysosomes and form Ca(2+) release channels that respond to activation by the Ca(2+) mobilizing messenger, nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP). With multiple endolysosomal targeted NAADP receptors now identified, important new insights into the regulation of endolysosomal function in health and disease will therefore be unveiled.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence suggests that the endolysosomal system is a novel intracellular Ca(2+) pool mobilized by the second messenger, nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP). Although lysosomes in neurons are known to proliferate in numerous neurodegenerative diseases and during the normal course of aging, little is known concerning the effect of lysosomal proliferation on Ca(2+) homeostasis. Here, we induce proliferation of lysosomes in primary cultures of rat hippocampal neurons and PC12 cells through chronic treatment with the cathepsin inhibitor, Z-Phe-Ala-diazomethylketone. We demonstrate that lysosome proliferation increases the size of the lysosomal Ca(2+) pool and enhances Ca(2+) signals in response to direct cellular delivery of NAADP and glutamate, an identified NAADP-producing agonist. Our data suggest that deregulated lysosomal Ca(2+) signaling through NAADP may contribute to neuronal dysfunction and highlight the usefulness of lysosomal hydrolase inhibition in probing NAADP action.

Abstract
Recently, we identified, for the first time, two-pore channels (TPCs, TPCN for gene name) as a novel family of nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP)-gated, endolysosome-targeted calcium release channels. Significantly, three subtypes of TPCs have been characterized, TPC1-3, with each being targeted to discrete acidic calcium stores, namely lysosomes (TPC2) and endosomes (TPC1 and TPC3). That TPCs act as NAADP-gated calcium release channels is clear, given that NAADP binds to high- and low-affinity sites associated with TPC2 and thereby induces calcium release and homologous desensitization, as observed in the case of endogenous NAADP receptors. Moreover, NAADP-evoked calcium signals via TPC2 are ablated by short hairpin RNA knockdown of TPC2 and by depletion of acidic calcium stores with bafilomycin. Importantly, however, NAADP-evoked calcium signals were biphasic in nature, with an initial phase of calcium release from lysosomes via TPC2, being subsequently amplified by calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). In marked contrast, calcium release via endosome-targeted TPC1 induced only spatially restricted calcium signals that were not amplified by CICR from the ER. These findings provide new insights into the mechanisms that cells may utilize to "filter" calcium signals via junctional complexes to determine whether a given signal remains local or is converted into a propagating global signal. Essentially, endosomes and lysosomes represent vesicular calcium stores, quite unlike the ER network, and TPCs do not themselves support CICR or, therefore, propagating regenerative calcium waves. Thus "quantal" vesicular calcium release via TPCs must subsequently recruit inositol 1,4,5-trisphoshpate receptors and/or ryanodine receptors on the ER by CICR to evoke a propagating calcium wave. This may call for a revision of current views on the mechanisms of intracellular calcium signaling. The purpose of this review is, therefore, to provide an appropriate framework for future studies in this area.

Abstract
NAADP (nicotinic acid-adenine dinucleotide phosphate) is an unusual second messenger thought to mobilize acidic Ca(2+) stores, such as lysosomes or lysosome-like organelles, that are functionally coupled to the ER (endoplasmic reticulum). Although NAADP-sensitive Ca(2+) stores have been described in neurons, the physiological cues that recruit them are not known. Here we show that in both hippocampal neurons and glia, extracellular application of glutamate, in the absence of external Ca(2+), evoked cytosolic Ca(2+) signals that were inhibited by preventing organelle acidification or following osmotic bursting of lysosomes. The sensitivity of both cell types to glutamate correlated well with lysosomal Ca(2+) content. However, interfering with acidic compartments was largely without effect on the Ca(2+) content of the ER or Ca(2+) signals in response to ATP. Glutamate but not ATP elevated cellular NAADP levels. Our results provide evidence for the agonist-specific recruitment of NAADP-sensitive Ca(2+) stores by glutamate. This links the actions of NAADP to a major neurotransmitter in the brain.

Abstract
In this review, we describe the background and implications of our recent discovery that two-pore channels (TPCs) comprise a novel class of calcium release channels gated by the intracellular messenger nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP). Their localisation to the endolysosomal system highlights a new function for these organelles as targets for NAADP-mediated Ca(2+) mobilisation. In addition, we describe how TPCs may also trigger further Ca(2+) release by coupling to the endoplasmic reticular stores through activation of IP(3) receptors and ryanodine receptors.

Abstract
The body of literature characterizing cyclic adenosine diphosphoribose (cADPR) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) as Ca2+-mobilizing second messengers is growing apace. However, their unique properties may, for the uninitiated, make them difficult to work with. This article reviews many of the available techniques (and associated pitfalls) for investigating these nucleotide messengers, predominantly focusing upon optical techniques using fluorescent reporters to measure Ca2+ in the cytosol as well as Ca2+ or pH within the lumen of intracellular organelles.

Abstract
Sphingosine 1-Phosphate (S1P) modulates various cellular functions such as apoptosis, cell differentiation, and migration. Although S1P is an abundant signaling molecule in the central nervous system, very little is known about its influence on neuronal functions. We found that S1P concentrations were selectively decreased in the cerebrospinal fluid of adult rats in an acute and an inflammatory pain model. Pharmacological inhibition of sphingosine kinases (SPHK) decreased basal pain thresholds and SphK2 knock-out mice, but not SphK1 knock-out mice, had a significant decrease in withdrawal latency. Intrathecal application of S1P or sphinganine 1-phosphate (dihydro-S1P) reduced the pain-related (nociceptive) behavior in the formalin assay. S1P and dihydro-S1P inhibited cyclic AMP (cAMP) synthesis, a key second messenger of spinal nociceptive processing, in spinal cord neurons. By combining fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based cAMP measurements with Multi Epitope Ligand Cartography (MELC), we showed that S1P decreased cAMP synthesis in excitatory dorsal horn neurons. Accordingly, intrathecal application of dihydro-S1P abolished the cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of NMDA receptors in the outer laminae of the spinal cord. Taken together, the data show that S1P modulates spinal nociceptive processing through inhibition of neuronal cAMP synthesis.

Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) Tat protein is one of the neurotoxins involved in the pathogenesis of HIV-1-associated neuronal disorders. Combined electrophysiological and optical imaging experiments were undertaken to investigate whether HIV-1 Tat30-86, herein referred to as Tat30-86, acted directly or indirectly via the release of glutamate or both and to test its effect on the properties of spontaneous quantal events in cultured cortical neurons. Whole-cell patch recordings were made from cultured rat cortical neurons in either current- or voltage-clamp mode. Tat30-86 (50-1000 nM) induced in a population of cortical neurons a long-lasting depolarization, which was accompanied by a decrease of membrane resistance and persisted in a Krebs solution containing tetrodotoxin (TTX, 0.5 microM). Depolarizations were slightly reduced by pretreatment with glutamate receptor antagonists 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX) (10 microM) and d-2-amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid (AP-5) (50 microM), and were markedly reduced in a Ca(2+)-free Krebs solution; the differences were statistically significant. Tat30-86-induced inward currents had a reversal potential between -30 and 0 mV. While not causing a noticeable depolarization, lower concentrations of Tat30-86 (10 nM) increased membrane excitability, as indicated by increased numbers of neuronal discharge in response to a step depolarizing pulse. Tat30-86 (10 nM) increased the frequency of spontaneous miniature excitatory postsynaptic currents (mEPSCs), while not significantly affecting their amplitude. Tat30-86 (10 nM) moderately increased the frequency as well as the amplitude of spontaneous miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents (mIPSCs). Ratiometric Ca(2+) imaging studies showed that Tat30-86 produced three types of Ca(2+) responses: 1) a fast and transitory increase, 2) Ca(2+) oscillations, and 3) a fast increase followed by a plateau; the glutamate receptor antagonists eliminated the late component of Ca(2+) response. The result suggests that Tat30-86 is an active fragment and that it excites cortical neurons directly and indirectly via releasing glutamate from adjacent neurons.

Abstract
NAADP (nicotinic acid-adenine dinucleotide phosphate) is a newly described intracellular messenger molecule that mediates Ca2+ increases in a variety of cells. However, little is known of the mechanism whereby ligand binding regulates the target protein. We report in the present paper that NAADP receptors from sea urchin eggs undergo an unusual stabilization process that appears to be dependent upon the time during which receptors are exposed to their ligand. We demonstrate that receptors 'tagged' with NAADP for short periods were more readily dissociated following subsequent delipidation than those labelled for longer. Stabilization of NAADP receptors by their ligand was delayed relative to ligand association taking on the order of minutes to develop at picomolar concentrations. The stabilizing effects of NAADP did not require cytosolic factors or the continued presence of NAADP and persisted upon solubilization. NAADP receptors, however, failed to stabilize at reduced temperature. We conclude that NAADP receptors possess a simple molecular memory endowing them with the remarkable ability to detect the duration of their activation.

Abstract
Cells possess several Ca2+-mobilizing messengers, which couple stimulation at the cell surface by a multitude of extracellular cues to the regulation of intracellular Ca2+-sensitive targets. Recent studies suggest that agonists differentially select from this molecular palette to generate their characteristic Ca2+ signals but it is still unclear whether different messengers mediate different functions or whether they act in a redundant fashion. In this study, we compared the effects of nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP), a novel Ca2+-mobilizing messenger, with that of the prototypical messenger inositol trisphosphate on cytosolic Ca2+ levels and differentiation status of PC12 cells. We demonstrate that liposomal delivery of NAADP mediated release of Ca2+ from acidic Ca2+ stores and that this stimulus was sufficient to drive differentiation of the cells to a neuronal-like phenotype. In sharp contrast, cell fate was unaffected by more transient Ca2+ signals generated by inositol trisphosphate-evoked release of endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ stores. Our data establish for the first time (i) the presence of novel NAADP-sensitive Ca2+ stores in PC12 cells, (ii) a role for NAADP in differentiation, and (iii) that Ca2+-dependent function can be messenger-specific. Thus, differential recruitment of intracellular Ca2+-mobilizing messengers and their target Ca2+ stores may represent a robust means of maintaining stimulus fidelity in the control of Ca2+-dependent cell function.

Abstract
Many physiological processes are controlled by a great diversity of Ca2+ signals. Within cell, Ca2+ signals depend upon Ca2+ entry and/or Ca2+ release from internal Ca2+ stores. The control of Ca2+-store mobilization is ensured by a family of messengers comprising inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate, cyclic ADP-ribose and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP). From recent works, new concepts have emerged where activation of the cells by outside stimuli, acting at the plasma membrane, results in the synthesis of multiple Ca2+-releasing messengers which may interact and shape complex Ca2+ signals in the cytosol as well as in the nucleus. This contribution will cover the most recent advances on NAADP signalling with some emphasis on neurons.

Abstract
Inositol trisphosphate and cyclic ADP-ribose release Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum via inositol trisphosphate and ryanodine receptors, respectively. By contrast, nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate may activate a novel Ca2+ channel in an acid compartment. We show, in two-photon permeabilized pancreatic acinar cells, that the three messengers tested could each release Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum and also from an acid store in the granular region. The nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate action on both types of store, like that of cyclic ADP-ribose but unlike inositol trisphosphate, depended on operational ryanodine receptors, since it was blocked by ryanodine or ruthenium red. The acid Ca2+ store in the granular region did not have Golgi or lysosomal characteristics and might therefore be associated with the secretory granules. The endoplasmic reticulum is predominantly basal, but thin extensions penetrate into the granular area and cytosolic Ca2+ signals probably initiate at sites where endoplasmic reticulum elements and granules come close together.

The priming effect of extracellular UTP on human neutrophils: Role of calcium released from thapsigargin-sensitive intracellular stores. Purinergic Signal 2005; 1:359-68. [PMID: 18404520 PMCID: PMC2096557 DOI: 10.1007/s11302-005-0039-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2005] [Revised: 04/26/2005] [Accepted: 06/03/2005] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
P2Y2 receptors, which are equally responsive to ATP and UTP, can trigger intracellular signaling events, such as intracellular calcium mobilization and mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase phosphorylation in polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN). Moreover, extracellular nucleotides have been shown to prime chemoattractant-induced superoxide production. The aim of our study was to investigate the mechanism responsible for the priming effect of extracellular nucleotides on reactive oxygen species (ROS) production induced in human neutrophils by two different chemoattractants: formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) and interleukin-8 (IL-8). Nucleotide-induced priming of ROS production was concentration- and time-dependent. When UTP was added to neutrophil suspensions prior to chemoattractant, the increase of the response reached the maximum at 1 min of pre-incubation with the nucleotide. UTP potentiated the phosphorylation of p44/42 and p38 MAP kinases induced by chemoattractants, however the P2 receptor-mediated potentiation of ROS production was still detectable in the presence of a SB203580 or U0126, supporting the view that MAP kinases do not play a major role in regulating the nucleotide-induced effect. In the presence of thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the ubiquitous sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPases in mammalian cells, the effect of fMLP was not affected, but UTP-induced priming was abolished, suggesting that the release of calcium from thapsigargin-sensitive intracellular stores is essential for nucleotide-induced priming in human neutrophils.

Abstract
Although modulation of transmitter release by serotonin (5-HT) at crayfish neuromuscular junctions has been known since 1965, the mechanisms of action have not been established in this classical synaptic preparation. We show that injections of adenophostin-A (an IP3 analog) in the nerve terminals greatly enhances synaptic transmission. Exposure to ryanodine (Ry) produces a biphasic response: at low concentration it is excitatory and high concentration it is inhibitory. Likewise, a low concentration (1 microM) of caffeine enhances synaptic transmission, whereas a high concentration (10 mM) has little effect on transmission. The varied responses and sensitivity to Ry and caffeine suggest a Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+)-release mechanism and/or the presence of an IP3-receptor within the terminal. Thus, it is likely 5-HT's response is due to activation of intracellular pathways, which subsequently release Ca2+ from internal stores.

Abstract
During early postnatal development, midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons display anomalous firing patterns and amphetamine response. Spontaneous miniature hyperpolarizations (SMHs) are observed in DA neurons during the same period but not in adults. These hyperpolarizations have been shown to be dependent on the release of Ca2+ from internal stores and the subsequent activation of Ca2+-sensitive K+ channels. However, the triggering mechanism and the functional significance of SMHs remain poorly understood. To address these issues, using brain slices, we recorded spontaneous miniature outward currents (SMOCs) in DA neurons of neonatal rats. Two types of SMOCs were identified based on the peak amplitude. Both types were suppressed by intracellular dialysis of ruthenium red, a ryanodine receptor (RyR) antagonist, yet none of the known Ca2+-releasing messengers were involved. T-type Ca2+ channel blockers (Ni2+ and mibefradil) inhibited large-amplitude SMOCs without affecting the small-amplitude ones. The voltage dependence of SMOCs displayed a peak of approximately -50 mV, consistent with the involvement of low-threshold T-type Ca2+ channels. Blockade of SMOCs with cyclopiazonic acid or ryanodine converted the irregular firing of DA neurons in neonatal rats into an adult-like pacemaker pattern. This effect was reversed by the injection of artificial currents mimicking SMOCs. Finally, amphetamine inhibited SMOCs and transformed the irregular firing pattern into a more regular one. These data demonstrate that Ca2+ influx through T-type Ca2+ channels, followed by Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release via RyRs, contributes to the generation of SMOCs. We propose that SMOCs-SMHs may underlie the anomalous firing and amphetamine response of DA neurons during the postnatal developmental period.

Abstract
Nuclear calcium signalling has been a controversial battlefield for many years and the question of how permeable the nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are to Ca2+ has been the subject of a particularly hot dispute. Recent data from isolated nuclei suggest that the NPCs are open even after depletion of the Ca2+ store in the nuclear envelope. Other research has suggested that a new Ca2+ -releasing messenger, nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP), can liberate Ca2+ only from acidic organelles, probably lysosomes, rather than from the traditional Ca2+ store in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Recent work indicates that NAADP can release Ca2+ from the nuclear envelope (NE), which has a thapsigargin-sensitive, ER-type Ca2+ store. NAADP acts in a manner similar to inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] or cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR): all three messengers are equally able to reduce the Ca2+ concentration inside the NE and this is associated with a transient rise in the nucleoplasmic Ca2+ concentration. The NE contains ryanodine receptors (RyRs) and Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptors [Ins(1,4,5)P3Rs], and these can be activated separately and independently: the RyRs by either NAADP or cADPR, and the Ins(1,4,5)P3Rs by Ins(1,4,5)P3.

Abstract
Ca(2+) regulates a spectrum of cellular processes including many aspects of neuronal function. Ca(2+)-sensitive events such as neurite extension and axonal guidance are driven by Ca(2+) signals that are precisely organized in both time and space. These complex cues result from both Ca(2+) influx across the plasma membrane and the mobilization of intracellular Ca(2+) stores. In the present study, using rat cortical neurons, we have examined the effects of the novel intracellular Ca(2+)-mobilizing messenger nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) on neurite length and cytosolic Ca(2+) levels. We show that NAADP potentiates neurite extension in response to serum and nerve growth factor and stimulates increases in cytosolic Ca(2+) from bafilomycin-sensitive Ca(2+) stores. Simultaneous blockade of inositol trisphosphate and ryanodine receptors abolished the effects of NAADP on neurite length and reduced the magnitude of NAADP-mediated Ca(2+) signals. This is the first report demonstrating functional NAADP receptors in a mammalian neuron. Interplay between NAADP receptors and more established intracellular Ca(2+) channels may therefore play important signaling roles in the nervous system.

Abstract
Nicotinic acid-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) is fast emerging as a new intracellular Ca2+-mobilizing messenger. In sea urchin egg homogenates, binding of NAADP to its receptor is not readily reversible; hence, prior incubation with low concentrations of NAADP is more effective in inhibiting subsequent binding of radiolabelled NAADP than incubating the preparation with the two ligands simultaneously [Patel, Churchill and Galione (2000) Biochem. J. 352, 725-729]. We extend this finding to show that NAADP is more effective still in inhibiting the subsequent radioligand binding at lower homogenate concentrations, an effect again quite probably due to the non-reversible nature of the receptor-ligand interaction. Enhanced sensitivity of the preparation to NAADP afforded by simple manipulation of the experimental conditions has been applied to determine low levels of NAADP in acid extracts from human red blood cells, rat hepatocytes and Escherichia coli without interference from NADP breakdown. Our improved method for the quantification of NAADP should prove useful in the further assessment of its signalling role within cells.

Abstract
Lysophospholipids (LPs), such as lysophosphatidic acid and sphingosine 1-phosphate, are membrane-derived bioactive lipid mediators. LPs can affect fundamental cellular functions, which include proliferation, differentiation, survival, migration, adhesion, invasion, and morphogenesis. These functions influence many biological processes that include neurogenesis, angiogenesis, wound healing, immunity, and carcinogenesis. In recent years, identification of multiple cognate G protein-coupled receptors has provided a mechanistic framework for understanding how LPs play such diverse roles. Generation of LP receptor-null animals has allowed rigorous examination of receptor-mediated physiological functions in vivo and has identified new functions for LP receptor signaling. Efforts to develop LP receptor subtype-specific agonists/antagonists are in progress and raise expectations for a growing collection of chemical tools and potential therapeutic compounds. The rapidly expanding literature on the LP receptors is herein reviewed.

Abstract
The pyridine nucleotides, NAD+ , NADH, NADP+ , and NADPH have long-established and well-characterised roles as redox factors in processes such as oxidative phosphorylation, the TCA cycle, and as electron acceptors in photosynthesis. Recent years have seen an increase in the number of signalling and gene regulatory processes where NAD+ or NADP+ are metabolised. Cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) are metabolites of NAD+ and NADP+ , respectively, and now have widely accepted roles as potent intracellular calcium releasing agents in animals, but are less well characterised in plants. NAD kinases catalyse the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to NAD to form NADP and are well characterised in plants in their requirement for the calcium binding protein calmodulin, thereby putatively linking their regulation to stress-induced intracellular calcium release. A second group of proteins unrelated to those above, the sirtuins (Sir2) and poly ADP-ribose polymerases (PARPs), cleave NAD and transfer the ADP-ribose group to acetyl groups and proteins, respectively. These have roles in transcriptional control and DNA repair in eukaryotes. Contents Summary I. Introduction 32 II. NAD synthesis and breakdown 32 III. cADPR in plants 34 IV. NAADP in plants 35 V.

Abstract
The role of cyclic ADP-ribose in the amplification of subcellular and global Ca2+ signaling upon stimulation of P2Y purinergic receptors was studied in 3T3 fibroblasts. Either (1) 3T3 fibroblasts (CD38- cells), (2) 3T3 fibroblasts preloaded by incubation with extracellular cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), (3) 3T3 fibroblasts microinjected with ryanodine, or (4) 3T3 fibroblasts transfected to express the ADP-ribosyl cyclase CD38 (CD38+ cells) were used. Both preincubation with cADPR and CD38 expression resulted in comparable intracellular amounts of cyclic ADP-ribose (42.3 +/- 5.2 and 50.5 +/- 8.0 pmol/mg protein). P2Y receptor stimulation of CD38- cells yielded a small increase of intracellular Ca2+ concentration and a much higher Ca2+ signal in CD38-transfected cells, in cADPR-preloaded cells, or in cells microinjected with ryanodine. Confocal Ca2+ imaging revealed that stimulation of ryanodine receptors by cADPR or ryanodine amplified localized pacemaker Ca2+ signals with properties resembling Ca2+ quarks and triggered the propagation of such localized signals from the plasma membrane toward the internal environment, thereby initiating a global Ca2+ wave.

Abstract
NAADP (nicotinic acid-adenine dinucleotide phosphate) mediates Ca2+ release from intracellular Ca2+ stores in a wide variety of cell types. In sea urchin eggs, subthreshold concentrations of NAADP can cause full inactivation of NAADP-induced Ca2+ release, an effect that may be related to the ability of the target protein to bind its ligand in an essentially irreversible manner. In the present study, we found that K+ ions inhibit dissociation of NAADP from sea urchin egg homogenates. In low K+-containing media, an addition of excess unlabelled NAADP effectively displaced bound radioligand whereas dilution of radioligand initiated only partial dissociation. The inhibitory effects of K+ on dissociation of NAADP were concentration dependent, reversible and persisted after detergent solubilization. Lowering [K+] of the medium decreased the sensitivity of NAADP receptors for their ligand in stimulating Ca2+ release, but it did not affect inactivation of NAADP-induced Ca2+ release by subthreshold concentrations of NAADP. Our results are consistent with the observation of multiple conformations of the NAADP receptor that are readily revealed in low K+-containing media.
