Abstract
Ca(2+) entry into cells of the peripheral immune system occurs through highly Ca(2+)-selective channels known as CRAC (calcium release-activated calcium) channels. CRAC channels are a very well-characterized example of store-operated Ca(2+) channels, so designated because they open when the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca(2+) store becomes depleted. Physiologically, Ca(2+) is released from the ER lumen into the cytoplasm when activated receptors couple to phospholipase C and trigger production of the second messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)). IP(3) binds to IP(3) receptors in the ER membrane and activates Ca(2+) release. The proteins STIM and ORAI were discovered through limited and genome-wide RNAi screens, respectively, performed in Drosophila cells and focused on identifying modulators of store-operated Ca(2+) entry. STIM1 and STIM2 sense the depletion of ER Ca(2+) stores, whereas ORAI1 is a pore subunit of the CRAC channel. In this review, we discuss selected aspects of Ca(2+) signaling in cells of the immune system, focusing on the roles of STIM and ORAI proteins in store-operated Ca(2+) entry.

Abstract
The versatility of Ca(2+) as an intracellular messenger derives largely from the spatial organization of cytosolic Ca(2+) signals, most of which are generated by regulated openings of Ca(2+)-permeable channels. Most Ca(2+) channels are expressed in the plasma membrane (PM). Others, including the almost ubiquitous inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP(3)R) and their relatives, the ryanodine receptors (RyR), are predominantly expressed in membranes of the sarcoplasmic or endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Targeting of these channels to appropriate destinations underpins their ability to generate spatially organized Ca(2+) signals. All Ca(2+) channels begin life in the cytosol, and the vast majority are then functionally assembled in the ER, where they may either remain or be dispatched to other membranes. Here, by means of selective examples, we review two issues related to this trafficking of Ca(2+) channels via the ER. How do cells avoid wayward activity of Ca(2+) channels in transit as they pass from the ER via other membranes to their final destination? How and why do some cells express small numbers of the archetypal intracellular Ca(2+) channels, IP(3)R and RyR, in the PM?

Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+) signaling by the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 (IL-1) is dependent on focal adhesions, which contain diverse structural and signaling proteins including protein phosphatases. We examined here the role of protein-tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) alpha in regulating IL-1-induced Ca2+ signaling in fibroblasts. IL-1 promoted recruitment of PTPalpha to focal adhesions and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) fractions, as well as tyrosine phosphorylation of the ER Ca2+ release channel IP3R. In response to IL-1, catalytically active PTPalpha was required for Ca2+ release from the ER, Src-dependent phosphorylation of IP3R1 and accumulation of IP3R1 in focal adhesions. In pulldown assays and immunoprecipitations PTPalpha was required for the association of PTPalpha with IP3R1 and c-Src, and this association was increased by IL-1. Collectively, these data indicate that PTPalpha acts as an adaptor to mediate functional links between focal adhesions and the ER that enable IL-1-induced Ca2+ signaling.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP(3)R) within the endoplasmic reticulum mediate release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores. Different channels usually mediate Ca(2+) entry across the plasma membrane. In B lymphocytes and a cell line derived from them (DT40 cells), very few functional IP(3)R (approximately 2/cell) are invariably expressed in the plasma membrane, where they mediate about half the Ca(2+) entry evoked by activation of the B-cell receptor. We show that cells reliably count approximately 2 functional IP(3)R into the plasma membrane even when their conductance and ability to bind IP(3) are massively attenuated. We conclude that very small numbers of functional IP(3)R can be reliably counted into a specific membrane compartment in the absence of feedback signals from the active protein.

Abstract
Caffeine-activated, large-conductance, nonselective cation channels (LCCs) have been found in the plasma membrane of isolated cardiac myocytes in several species. However, little is known about the effects of opening these channels. To examine such effects and to further understand the caffeine-activation mechanism, we carried out studies using whole-cell patch-clamp techniques with freshly isolated cardiac myocytes from rats and mice. Unlike previous studies, thapsigargin was used so that both the effect of opening LCCs and the action of caffeine were independent of Ca2+ release from intracellular stores. These Ca2+-permeable LCCs were found in a majority of the cells from atria and ventricles, with a conductance of ∼370 pS in rat atria. Caffeine and all its direct metabolic products (theophylline, theobromine, and paraxanthine) activated the channel, while isocaffeine did not. Although they share some similarities with ryanodine receptors (RyRs, the openings of which give rise to Ca2+ sparks), LCCs also showed some different characteristics. With simultaneous Ca2+ imaging and current recording, the localized fluorescence increase due to Ca2+ entry through a single opening of an LCC (SCCaFT) was detected. When membrane potential, instead of current, was recorded, SCCaFT-like fluorescence transients (indicating single LCC openings) were found to accompany membrane depolarizations. To our knowledge, this is the first report directly linking membrane potential changes to a single opening of an ion channel. Moreover, these events in cardiac cells suggest a possible additional mechanism by which caffeine and theophylline contribute to the generation of cardiac arrhythmias.

Abstract
Access to and clearance of odorants from binding sites on olfactory cilia are regulated by a complex interplay of molecular, physical and cellular factors. These perireceptor events occur primarily in the mucociliary complex. The use of gold-labelled lectinoprobes, one from Limax flavus (LFA) which is specific for terminal sialic acid residues, and one from Datura stramonium (DSA) specific for N-acetylglucosamine residues, demonstrated intricate patterns of binding in mucous domains of the olfactory mucus and ectodomains of the glycocalyx of olfactory cilia. In electron micrographs of Lowicryl-embedded salamander olfactory mucosa, the mucus consisted of an electron-dense domain that lay superficial to an electron-lucent domain; the interface between the two was irregular. A significantly higher density of binding sites for both lectins was present in the superficial than in the deeper domain. The two domains were not homogeneous: there were small electron-lucent domains (hsL) within the superficial electron-dense domain (hsD) that bound a 4.8-fold lower density of gold-labelled DSA than the surrounding matrix, and the olfactory cilia, which project into hsD, were surrounded by an electron-lucent sheath that appeared to be continuous with the deeper domain. Ectodomains of the glycocalyx associated with olfactory cilia exhibited a higher density of binding sites for both LFA and DSA than did either microvilli of sustentacular cells or respiratory cilia. Specificity of the lectinoprobes was confirmed by inhibition of binding with specific sugars or enzymic removal of specific sugar residues. These results demonstrated microchemical heterogeneity of the non-homogeneous mucous domains in olfactory mucus and in the attendant glycocalyx of olfactory cilia based on the differential localization of sialic acid and N-acetylglucosamine sugar residues.

Abstract
IP3Rs (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors) are expressed in the membranes of non-mitochondrial organelles in most animal cells, but their presence and role within the plasma membrane are unclear. Whole-cell patch-clamp recording from DT40 cells expressing native or mutated IP3Rs has established that each cell expresses just two or three functional IP3Rs in its plasma membrane. Only approx. 50% of the Ca2+ entry evoked by stimulation of the B-cell receptor is mediated by store-operated Ca2+ entry, the remainder appears to be carried by the IP3Rs expressed in the plasma membrane. Ca2+ entering the cell via just two large-conductance IP3Rs is likely to have very different functional consequences from the comparable amount of Ca2+ that enters through the several thousand low-conductance store-operated channels.

Abstract
The regulatory mechanism of Ca2+ influx into the cytosol from the extracellular space in non-excitable cells is not clear. The "capacitative calcium entry" (CCE) hypothesis suggested that Ca2+ influx is triggered by the IP(3)-mediated emptying of the intracellular Ca2+ stores. However, there is no clear evidence for CCE and its mechanism remains elusive. In the present work, we have provided the reported evidences to show that inhibition of IP(3)-dependent Ca2+ release does not affect Ca2+ influx, and the experimental protocols used to demonstrate CCE can stimulate Ca2+ influx by means other than emptying of the Ca2+ stores. In addition, we have presented the reports showing that IP(3)-mediated Ca2+ release is linked to a Ca2+ entry from the extracellular space, which does not increase cytosolic [Ca2+] prior to Ca2+ release. Based on these and other reports, we have provided a model of Ca2+ signaling in non-excitable cells, in which IP(3)-mediated emptying of the intracellular Ca2+ store triggers entry of Ca2+ directly into the store, through a plasma membrane TRPC channel. Thus, emptying and direct refilling of the Ca2+ stores are repeated in the presence of IP(3), giving rise to the transient phase of oscillatory Ca2+ release. Direct Ca2+ entry into the store is regulated by its filling status in a negative and positive manner through a Ca2+ -binding protein and Stim1/Orai complex, respectively. The sustained phase of Ca2+ influx is triggered by diacylglycerol (DAG) through the activation of another TRPC channel, independent of Ca2+ release. The plasma membrane IP(3) receptor (IP(3)R) plays an essential role in Ca2+ influx, by interacting with the DAG-activated TRPC, without the requirement of binding to IP(3).

Abstract
Subplasmalemmal Ca2+, dynamically equilibrated with extracellular Ca2+, affects numerous signaling molecules, effectors, and events within this restricted space. We demonstrated the presence of a novel Ca2+ wave propagating beneath the plasma membrane in response to acute elevation of extracellular [Ca2+], by targeting a Ca2+ sensor, cameleon, to the endothelial plasmalemma. These subcortical waves, spatially distinct from classical cytosolic Ca2+ waves, originated in localized regions and propagated throughout the subplasmalemma. Translocation of an expressed GFP fused with a PH domain of PLC from the plasma membrane to the cytosol accompanied these subcortical waves, and U73122 attenuated not only the GFP-PH translocation, but also the peak amplitude of the subcortical Ca2+ waves; this finding suggests the involvement of local IP3 production through PLC-mediated PIP2 hydrolysis in the initiation of these waves. Changes in NO production as well as PKCbeta-GFP translocation from the cytosol to the plasma membrane, but not of GFP-PLA2 to perinuclear endomembranes, were associated with the subplasmalemmal Ca2+ changes. Thus, extracellular Ca2+ maintains the basal PLC activity of the plasma membrane, is involved in the initiation of compartmentalized subcortical Ca2+ waves, and regulates Ca2+-dependent signaling molecules residing in or translocated to the plasma membrane.

Abstract
The inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate (IP3) receptor (IP3R) is a Ca2+ release channel that responds to the second messenger IP3. Exquisite modulation of intracellular Ca2+ release via IP3Rs is achieved by the ability of IP3R to integrate signals from numerous small molecules and proteins including nucleotides, kinases, and phosphatases, as well as nonenzyme proteins. Because the ion conduction pore composes only approximately 5% of the IP3R, the great bulk of this large protein contains recognition sites for these substances. Through these regulatory mechanisms, IP3R modulates diverse cellular functions, which include, but are not limited to, contraction/excitation, secretion, gene expression, and cellular growth. We review the unique properties of the IP3R that facilitate cell-type and stimulus-dependent control of function, with special emphasis on protein-binding partners.

Abstract
Most inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3R) are expressed in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where their precise distribution underlies the spatially complex Ca2+ signals evoked by extracellular stimuli. The signals that target IP3R to the ER or, less commonly, to other membranes are unknown. We expressed yellow fluorescent protein-tagged fragments of type 1 IP3R alone or fused with a plasma membrane protein to establish the determinants of ER targeting in COS-7 cells. By using a combination of confocal imaging and glycoprotein analyses, we demonstrated that any pair of the six transmembrane domains (TMD) linked by a luminal loop retains the protein within the ER, and when attached to a plasma membrane protein (ICAM-1), prevents it from reaching the medial Golgi. TMD1 or TMD2 alone were accumulated in mitochondria, whereas TMD5 and TMD6 were retained in ER, but were unable to prevent ICAM from reaching the plasma membrane. We conclude that IP3R are targeted to the ER membrane only after synthesis of TMDs 1 and 2, and that after co-translational insertion of the remaining TMDs, redundant retention signals present in any pair of TMD retain IP3R in the ER.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5) P3] 3-kinase catalyses the phosphorylation of InsP3 to inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. cDNAs encoding three human isoenzymes of InsP3 3-kinase (A, B and C) have been reported previously [Choi, Kim, Lee, Moon, Sim, Kim, Chung and Rhee (1990) Science 248, 64-66; Dewaste, Pouillon, Moreau, Shears, Takazawa and Erneux (2000) Biochem. J. 352, 343-351; Dewaste, Roymans, Moreau and Erneux (2002) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 291, 400-405; Takazawa, Perret, Dumont and Erneux (1991) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 174, 529-535]. The localization of InsP3 3-kinase isoenzymes fused at their N-terminus to the green fluorescent protein has been studied by confocal microscopy. The A isoform appeared to associate with the cytoskeleton, whereas the C isoform was totally cytoplasmic. The B isoform had a more complex localization: it appeared in the plasma membrane, cytoskeleton and in the endoplasmic reticulum. The three human isoenzymes of InsP3 3-kinase can thus be distinguished by their N-terminal sequence, sensitivity to Ca2+/calmodulin and localization on transfection in COS-7 cells. We have compared the cytosolic Ca2+ responses induced by ATP in COS-7 cells transfected with the three isoenzymes. Cells expressing high levels of any of the three isoforms no longer respond to ATP, whereas cells expressing low levels of each enzyme showed a reduced response consisting of one to three Ca2+ spikes in response to 100 microM ATP. These effects were seen only in wild-type InsP3 3-kinase-transfected cells. 3-Kinase-dead mutant cells behaved as vector-transfected cells. The results highlight the potential role of the three isoforms of InsP3 3-kinase as direct InsP3 metabolizing enzymes and direct regulators of Ca2+ responses to extracellular signals.

Abstract
We examined the roles of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptors (IP3R) in calcium signaling using DT40 B lymphocytes, and a variant lacking the three IP3R isoforms (IP3R-KO). In wild-type cells, B cell receptor (BCR) stimulation activates a cation entry route that exhibits significantly greater permeability to Ba2+ than does capacitative calcium entry. This cation entry is absent in IP3R-KO cells. Expression of the type-3 IP3R (IP3R-3) in the IP3R-KO cells rescued not only agonist-dependent release of intracellular Ca2+, but also Ba2+ influx following receptor stimulation. Similar results were obtained with an IP3R-3 mutant carrying a conservative point mutation in the selectivity filter region of the channel (D2477E); however, an IP3R-3 mutant in which this same aspartate was replaced by alanine (D2477A) failed to restore either BCR-induced Ca2+ release or receptor-dependent Ba2+ entry. These results suggest that in DT40 B lymphocytes, BCR stimulation activates a novel cation entry across the plasma membrane that depends upon, or is mediated by, fully functional IP3R.

Abstract
In addition to the activation of cAMP-dependent pathways, odorant binding to its receptor can lead to inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) production that may induce the opening of plasma membrane channels. We therefore investigated the presence and nature of such channels in carp olfactory cilia. Functional analysis was performed by reconstitution of the olfactory cilia in planar lipid bilayers (tip-dip method). In the presence of InsP3 (10 microM) and Ca2+ (100 nM), a current of 1.6 +/- 0.1 pA (mean +/- SEM, n = 4) was measured, using Ba2+ as charge carrier. The I/V curve displayed a slope conductance of 45 +/- 5 pS and a reversal potential of -29 mV indicating a higher selectivity for divalent cations. This current was characterized by two mean open times (3.0 +/- 0.4 ms and 42.0 +/- 2.6 ms, n = 4) and was strongly inhibited by ruthenium red (30 microM) or heparin (10 microg/mL). Importantly, the channel activity was closely dependent on the Ca2+ concentration, with the highest open probability (Po) at 100 nM Ca2+ (Po = 0.50 +/- 0.02, n = 4). Po is lower at both higher and lower Ca2+ concentrations. A structural identification of the channel was attempted by using a large panel of antibodies, raised against several InsP3 receptor (InsP3R)/Ca2+ release channel isoforms. The type 1 InsP3R was detected in carp cerebellum and whole brain, while a lower molecular mass InsP3R, which may correspond to type 2 or 3, was detected in heart, whole brain and the soma of the olfactory neurons. None of the antibodies, however, cross-reacted with olfactory cilia. Taken together, these results indicate that in carp olfactory cilia an InsP3-dependent channel is present, distinct from the classical InsP3Rs localized on intracellular membranes.

Abstract
This study presents evidence that phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase is involved in T cell Ca(2+) signaling via a phosphatidylinositol 3,4, 5-trisphosphate PI(3,4,5)P(3)-sensitive Ca(2+) entry pathway. First, exogenous PI(3,4,5)P(3) at concentrations close to its physiological levels induces Ca(2+) influx in T cells, whereas PI(3,4)P(2), PI(4, 5)P(2), and PI(3)P have no effect on [Ca(2+)](i). This Ca(2+) entry mechanism is cell type-specific as B cells and a number of cell lines examined do not respond to PI(3,4,5)P(3) stimulation. Second, inhibition of PI 3-kinase by wortmannin and by overexpression of the dominant negative inhibitor Deltap85 suppresses anti-CD3-induced Ca(2+) response, which could be reversed by subsequent exposure to PI(3,4,5)P(3). Third, PI(3,4,5)P(3) is capable of stimulating Ca(2+) efflux from Ca(2+)-loaded plasma membrane vesicles prepared from Jurkat T cells, suggesting that PI(3,4,5)P(3) interacts with a Ca(2+) entry system directly or via a membrane-bound protein. Fourth, although D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4, 5)P(4)) mimics PI(3,4,5)P(3) in many aspects of biochemical functions such as membrane binding and Ca(2+) transport, we raise evidence that Ins(1,3,4,5)P(4) does not play a role in anti-CD3- or PI(3,4,5)P(3)-mediated Ca(2+) entry. This PI(3,4,5)P(3)-stimulated Ca(2+) influx connotes physiological significance, considering the pivotal role of PI 3-kinase in the regulation of T cell function. Given that PI 3-kinase and phospholipase C-gamma form multifunctional complexes downstream of many receptor signaling pathways, we hypothesize that PI(3,4,5)P(3)-induced Ca(2+) entry acts concertedly with Ins(1,4,5)P(3)-induced Ca(2+) release in initiating T cell Ca(2+) signaling. By using a biotinylated analog of PI(3,4,5)P(3) as the affinity probe, we have detected several putative PI(3,4,5)P(3)-binding proteins in T cell plasma membranes.

Abstract
Phosphatidylserine synthesis as measured by the incorporation of [(3)H]serine into phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) through the serine-base exchange enzyme system (serine-BEES) is markedly inhibited in Jurkat cells treated with caffeine. The caffeine-induced inhibition was compared to that observed in cells treated with either CD3 mAb or thapsigargin. While CD3- and thapsigargin-induced inhibition was related to the release of Ca(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), a process that deprives the serine-BEES of its major cofactor, caffeine modified PtdSer synthesis in the absence of decreased Ca(2+) content of ER. Using Jurkat clones differing by the expression of cell surface markers or protein tyrosine kinases implicated in the CD3/TCR signal transmission pathway, we have shown that CD3 mAb-induced inhibition of PtdSer synthesis necessitates the expression of both the CD3/TCR and the protein tyrosine phosphatase CD45 at the cell surface as well as the presence of p56(lck) and ZAP-70 protein tyrosine kinases. By contrast, thapsigargin, a blocker of the Ca(2+)-ATPase of the ER, known for its Ca(2+) releasing properties, inhibited PtdSer synthesis in all the Jurkat clones tested, indicating that this compound bypasses the CD3/TCR-induced signals. Despite its lack of effect on Ca(2+) release from ER and on protein tyrosine phosphorylations, caffeine inhibited PtdSer synthesis in all the Jurkat clones. The use of several cAMP-inducing drugs and of others xanthine derivatives indicated that caffeine modify PtdSer synthesis either by a direct action on the serine-BEES or by a modification of the structure of the phospholipids used as substrate by the enzyme.

Abstract
Recent evidence revealed biphasic alterations in myocardial concentrations of the second messenger inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] with ischemic preconditioning (PC), i.e., increase during brief PC ischemia and decrease early during sustained test occlusion. Our aim was to determine whether an agonist and an antagonist of Ins(1,4,5)P(3) signaling (D-myo-inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate hexasodium salt [D-myo-Ins(1,4, 5)P3] and 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB), respectively), given such that they mimic this biphasic profile, would mimic infarct size reduction with PC. To test this concept, isolated, buffer-perfused rabbit hearts received no intervention (control), ischemic PC, D-myo-Ins(1,4,5)P3, D-myo-Ins(1,4,5)P(3) + PC, 2-APB, or 2-APB + PC. All hearts then underwent 30-min coronary occlusion and 2 h reflow, and infarct size was delineated by tetrazolium staining. In addition, the effects of D-myo-Ins(1,4,5)P3 and 2-APB on Ins(1,4,5)P3 signaling were evaluated in isolated fura 2-loaded rat cardiomyocytes. Mean infarct size was reduced with PC and in all D-myo-Ins(1,4,5)P3- and 2-APB-treated groups versus control (59 and 42-55%, respectively, vs. 80% of myocardium at risk, P < 0.05). Thus pharmacological manipulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 signaling mimics the cardioprotection achieved with ischemic PC in rabbit heart.

Abstract
The effect of cell ageing on Ca2+ entry was studied in this work, using sub-populations of young and old human red cells, separated by stringent percoll density gradients. Additionally, the influence of an osmotic gradient was investigated as a model for shear stress. Ca2+ entry was assessed at 37 degrees C, under conditions where the Ca2+ pump was either inhibited by NaVO3 (0.5-10 mM) or inactivated by ATP depletion. The entry was linear with time up to 1 h. No differences in Ca2+ influx between the two sub-populations were detected in isotonic Na(+)-medium. In contrast, after incubation in anisosmotic media, Ca2+ entry into old cells was significantly higher than into younger cells. In hypotonic Na(+)-medium, the entry into old cells was not affected by La3+ (10 microM) whilst it was partially blocked by Gd3+ at a similar level (half-maximal effect attained with about 1 microM Gd3+). The entry into young cells was only slightly stimulated by these lanthanides at low concentrations (10 microM), regardless of the tonicity of incubation medium. Further increasing Gd3+ levels above 10 microM markedly enhanced Ca2+ entry into both cell types. The selective blockade of Ca2+ influx by low Gd3+ concentrations suggests presence of mechano-sensitive channels, that become preferentially activated in old cells. Activation of these channels during in-vivo microcirculation may help to explain the increased Ca2+ content of senescent cells.

Abstract
Local voltage clamping was applied to mouse macrophage plasma membrane to study calcium channels activated by inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and blocked by heparin. These channels were clearly distinguished from IP3-activated channels of the endoplasmic reticulum by their low conductivity (about 1 pSm for 100 mM Ca2+), high selectivity for Ca2+ relative to K+ (P(Ca):P(K) > 1000), calcium inactivation, and activation on hyperpolarization; these properties allowed them to be assigned to the I(CRAC) family. On the other hand, the properties of the IP3 receptors of these channels (IP3R), i.e., the dose-dependent effect of IP3, the IP3 desensitization of the receptor, and the sensitivity to micromolar concentrations of heparin and arachidonic acid were close to those of the endoplasmic reticulum IP3 receptor. The most likely interpretation of these data is that IP3R are not located in the endoplasmic reticulum, but, acting via some kind of conformational change occurring on binding of IP3, transmit a signal from the endoplasmic reticulum to the highly selective Ca2+ channels. This point of view is in agreement with the published "coupling model" [1].

Abstract
Fertilization is a matter of life or death. In animals of sexual reproduction, the appropriate communication between mature and competent male and female gametes determines the generation of a new individual. Ion channels are key elements in the dialogue between sperm, its environment, and the egg. Components from the outer layer of the egg induce ion permeability changes in sperm that regulate sperm motility, chemotaxis, and the acrosome reaction. Sperm are tiny differentiated terminal cells unable to synthesize protein and difficult to study electrophysiologically. Thus understanding how sperm ion channels participate in fertilization requires combining planar bilayer techniques, in vivo measurements of membrane potential, intracellular Ca2+ and intracellular pH using fluorescent probes, patch-clamp recordings, and molecular cloning and heterologous expression. Spermatogenic cells are larger than sperm and synthesize the ion channels that will end up in mature sperm. Correlating the presence and cellular distribution of various ion channels with their functional status at different stages of spermatogenesis is contributing to understand their participation in differentiation and in sperm physiology. The multi-faceted approach being used to unravel sperm ion channel function and regulation is yielding valuable information about the finely orchestrated events that lead to sperm activation, induction of the acrosome reaction, and in the end to the miracle of life.

Abstract
Receptor-mediated activation of phospholipase C to generate inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] is a ubiquitous signalling pathway in mammalian systems. A family of three IP3 receptor subtype monomers form functional tetramers, which act as effectors for Ins(1,4,5)P3, providing a ligand-gated channel that allows Ca2+ ions to move between cellular compartments. As IP3 receptors are located principally, although not exclusively, in the endoplasmic reticular membrane, Ins(1,4,5)P3 is considered to be a second messenger that mobilizes Ca2+ from intracellular stores. Ca2+ store mobilization by Ins(1,4,5)P3 can be shown to contribute to a variety of physiological and pathophysiological phenomena, and therefore the IP3 receptor represents a novel, potential pharmacological target. In this article, Rob Wilcox and colleagues review recent developments in IP3 receptor pharmacology, with particular emphasis on ligand molecular recognition by this receptor-channel complex. The potential for designing non-inositol phosphate-based agonists and antagonists is also discussed.

Abstract
Platelet activation is central to the pathogenesis of hemostasis and arterial thrombosis. Platelet aggregation plays a major role in acute coronary artery diseases, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, and stroke. ADP is the first known and an important agonist for platelet aggregation. ADP not only causes primary aggregation of platelets but is also responsible for the secondary aggregation induced by ADP and other agonists. ADP also induces platelet shape change, secretion from storage granules, influx and intracellular mobilization of Ca2+, and inhibition of stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity. The ADP-receptor protein mediating ADP-induced platelet responses has neither been purified nor cloned. Therefore, signal transduction mechanisms underlying ADP-induced platelet responses either remain uncertain or less well understood. Recent contributions from chemists, biochemists, cell biologists, pharmacologists, molecular biologists, and clinical investigators have added considerably to and enhanced our knowledge of ADP-induced platelet responses. Although considerable efforts have been directed toward identifying and cloning the ADP-receptor, these have not been completely successful or without controversy. Considerable progress has been made toward understanding the mechanisms of ADP-induced platelet responses but disagreements persist. New drugs that do not mimic ADP have been found to inhibit fairly selectively ADP-induced platelet activation ex vivo. Drugs that mimic ADP and selectively act at the platelet ADP-receptor have been designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their therapeutic efficacy to block selectively ADP-induced platelet responses. This review examines in detail the developments that have taken place to identify the ADP-receptor protein and to better understand mechanisms underlying ADP-induced platelet responses to develop strategies for designing innovative drugs that block ADP-induced platelet responses by acting selectively at the ADP-receptor and/or by selectively interfering with components of ADP-induced platelet activation mechanisms.

Abstract
The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (InsP3R) is a ligand-gated Ca2+-release channel on intracellular Ca2+ store sites (such as the endoplasmic reticulum), and plays an important role in intracellular Ca2+ signaling in a wide variety of cell types. Recent studies have shown that binding of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) to InsP3R isoforms is differentially regulated by Ca2+, and that InsP3R functions are finely regulated by phosphorylation via tyrosine kinases and protein kinase C, by dephosphorylation via calcineurin, and by binding to FKBP (FK506-binding protein). In addition, transient receptor potential (TRP) and TRP-like proteins appear to couple conformationally with the InsP3R for capacitative Ca2+ entry. The importance of InsP3R signaling in neuronal function has been demonstrated by gene targeting in mice and by studies of T-cell receptor signaling, apoptosis, meiotic maturation, and cytokinesis.

Abstract
Activation of peripheral blood CD4+ helper T lymphocytes establishes a permissive state for growth of HIV-1. Activated T lymphocytes expressed increased sialidase (neuraminidase) activity and were hyposialylated. Treatment of freshly isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) with microbial neuraminidase (NANase) or phytohemagglutinin (PHA) prior to infection at low multiplicity with T cell line-adapted HIV-1IIIB resulted in production of large amounts of p24 antigen and reverse transcriptase. In contrast, neither viral component was detected in the medium of mock-treated cells infected at a similar multiplicity through 21 days in culture. The titer of a stock solution of HIV-1IIIB was 1.4 +/- 0.18 log10 greater in NANase-treated PBMCs than in mock-treated cells; the titer was similarly raised 1.5 to 1.76 +/- 0.18 log10 in PHA-treated cells. Growth of the primary isolate HIV-1(91/US/056) was also enhanced in NANase-treated PBMCs; the titer of a stock solution of HIV-1(91/US/056 was 1.0 +/- 0.16 log10 greater in NANase-treated PBMCs than in mock-treated cells 7 days after infection. No enhancement of viral growth in PBMCs was detected when NANase was heat-inactivated or specifically inhibited with 2,3-dehydro-2-desoxy-N-acetyl-neuraminic acid prior to use. Treatment of PBMCs with NANase did not alter the distribution of lymphocyte subsets nor change the density of CD4 antigen per cell after 7 days in culture. Whereas PHA treatment of PBMCs was mitogenic, pretreatment with NANase was not; the amount of [3H]thymidine incorporated into DNA and culture growth characteristics were similar for NANase- and mock-treated cells. Thus, desialylation of PBMCs promoted a permissive state for growth of HIV-1 without affecting the rate of DNA synthesis or relative number of target CD4+ cells.

Abstract
B and T lymphocytes undergoing apoptosis in response to anti-immunoglobulin M antibodies and dexamethasone, respectively, were found to have increased amounts of messenger RNA for the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) and increased amounts of IP3R protein. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that the augmented receptor population was localized to the plasma membrane. Type 3 IP3R (IP3R3) was selectively increased during apoptosis, with no enhancement of type 1 IP3R (IP3R1). Expression of IP3R3 antisense constructs in S49 T cells blocked dexamethasone-induced apoptosis, whereas IP3R3 sense, IP3R1 sense, or IP3R1 antisense control constructs did not block cell death. Thus, the increases in IP3R3 may be causally related to apoptosis.

Abstract
We developed new biochemical approaches to demonstrate the presence of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (InsP3)-gated calcium channels in presynaptic plasma membranes (SPM) and their involvement in the presynaptic receptor-mediated Ca2+ influx into nerve terminals. In perfusion experiments using SPM vesicles preloaded with 45Ca2+, InsP3 elicited the release of 45CA2+ into perfusates in a saturable manner. The InsP3- evoked 45Ca2+ release from resealed SPM vesicles was more potent than that from resealed vesicles using any other subcellular fractions. Here we also report the involvement of InsP3-gated mechanisms in the presynaptic receptor-mediated Ca2+ influx into synaptosomes (nerve terminals) by use of such resealed vesicles reconstituted with purified Gi1.

Abstract
The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) is an intracellular calcium channel involved in coupling cell membrane receptors to calcium signal transduction pathways within cells including endocrine cells. Several isoforms (I, II, and III) of IP3Rs have been identified, which are encoded by separate genes, and are expressed in many tissues with differing patterns of cellular expression. We have generated specific affinity-purified polyclonal anti-peptide antibodies to each of the three isoforms. Western blot analysis of RINm5F and ATt20 cells shows high levels of endogenously expressed type I and type III IP3R, but undetectable levels of type II. Immunofluorescence studies revealed an endoplasmic reticulum-like pattern similar to BiP, an ER marker. In contrast with previous claims, both type I and type III IP3Rs were absent from the secretory granules of ATt20 cells. Western blots of sucrose gradients and gel filtration probed with antibodies to either type I or type III showed a molecular weight of greater than 1,000 kDa consistent with a tetrameric structure. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments indicated that most of the receptors were present as heterotetramers. Homotetramers were identified for the type III IP3R; however, type I homotetramers were undetectable. These data suggest that molecular association of IP3Rs into heterotetrameric forms can contribute to the complexity of the regulation of Ca2+ release from ER by IP3Rs within cells.

Abstract
Although it is clear that D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) plays an important role in the activation of Ca2+ influx, the mechanisms by which this occurs remain controversial. In an attempt to determine the role of IP3 in the activation of Ca2+ influx, patch-clamp single-channel experiments in the cell-attached, inside-out, and outside-out configurations were performed on cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAEC). The results presented indicate that both IP3 and intracellular Ca2+ can modulate the activity of a Ca(2+)-selective channel found in the plasma membrane of these cells. Addition of 10 microM IP3 increased channel open probability (P(o)) from a control value of 0.12 +/- 0.05 to 0.7 +/- 0.13 at a constant intracellular Ca2+ of 1 nM in excised inside-out patches. D-Myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate at 50 microM was ineffective in altering channel P(o). Channel activity declined after approximately 2 min in the continuous presence of IP3. Three to four minutes after addition of IP3, channel P(o) was reduced from 0.7 +/- 0.2 to 0.2 +/- 0.1, indicating that an additional regulator might be required to maintain channel activity in excised patches. The channel was reversibly blocked by application of 1 microgram/ml heparin to the intracellular side of inside-out patches. This Ca(2+)-selective channel is indistinguishable from the depletion-activated Ca2+ channel we have previously described in BAEC.

Abstract
Calcium flux is required for the mammalian sperm acrosome reaction, an exocytotic event triggered by egg binding, which results in a dramatic rise in sperm intracellular calcium. Calcium-dependent membrane fusion results in the release of enzymes that facilitate sperm penetration through the zona pellucida during fertilization. We have characterized inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-gated calcium channels and upstream components of the phosphoinositide signaling system in mammalian sperm. Peptide antibodies colocalized G alpha q/11 and the beta 1 isoform of phospholipase C (PLC beta 1) to the anterior acrosomal region of mouse sperm. Western blotting using a polyclonal antibody directed against purified brain IP3 receptor (IP3R) identified a specific 260 kD band in 1% Triton X-100 extracts of rat, hamster, mouse and dog sperm. In each species, IP3R immunostaining localized to the acrosome cap. Scatchard analysis of [3H]IP3 binding to rat sperm sonicates revealed a curvilinear plot with high affinity (Kd = 26 nM, Bmax = 30 pmol/mg) and low affinity (Kd = 1.6 microM, Bmax = 550 pmol/mg) binding sites, reflecting among the highest receptor densities in mammalian tissue. Immunoelectron microscopy confirmed the acrosomal localization in rat sperm. The IP3R fractionated with acrosomes by discontinuous sucrose gradient centrifugation and was enriched in the medium of acrosome-reacted sperm. ATP-dependent 45Ca2+ loading of digitonin permeabilized rat sperm was decreased by 45% in the presence of 10 microM IP3. The IP3-mediated release of calcium was blocked by heparin. Thapsigargin, a sequiterpene lactone inhibitor of the microsomal Ca(2+)-ATPase, stimulated the acrosome reaction of mouse sperm to the same extent as the Ca2+ ionophore, A23187. The failure of caffeine and ryanodine to affect calcium accumulation suggested that thapsigargin acted through an IP3-sensitive store. The presence of G alpha q/11, PLC beta 1 and a functional IP3R in the anterior acrosomal region of mammalian sperm, as well as thapsigargin's induction of the acrosome reaction, implicate IP3-gated calcium release in the mammalian acrosome reaction.

Abstract
The activation of a monovalent cation current was studied in rat megakaryocytes using patch clamp techniques combined with photometric measurements of intracellular concentrations of Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) and Na+. ADP evoked a release of [Ca2+]i and transiently activated a monovalent cation-selective channel, which, at negative potentials and under physiological conditions, would be expected to carry an inward Na+ current. The single channel conductance, estimated by noise analysis from whole cell currents at -50 to -60 mV was 9 picosiemens. Thapsigargin-induced [Ca2+]i increases failed to stimulate the monovalent cation current, suggesting that neither [Ca2+]i nor the depletion of internal Ca2+ stores were activators of this conductance. However, buffering of [Ca2+]i changes with 1,2-bis-(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid showed that both activation and inactivation of the current were accelerated by a rise in [Ca2+]i. The monovalent cation conductance was activated by internal perfusion with inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, both in the presence and in the absence of a rise in [Ca2+]i. Internal perfusion with inositol 2,4,5-trisphosphate, the poorly metabolizable isomer of inositol trisphosphate, similarly activated the monovalent cation current, whereas 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate neither activated a current nor modified the ADP-induced monovalent current. Heparin, added to the pipette, blocked activation of the channel by ADP. The intracellular concentration of Na+, monitored by sodium-binding benzofuran isopthalate, increased by 10-20 mM in response to ADP under pseudophysiological conditions. We conclude the existence of a novel nonselective cation channel in the plasma membrane of rat megakaryocytes, which is activated by IP3 and can lead to increases in cytosolic Na+ after stimulation by ADP.

Abstract
In this study, we showed that cross-linking CD3 molecules on the T cell surface resulted in Ca2+ release from the intracellular stores followed by a sustained Ca2+ influx. Inhibition of release with TMB-8 did not block the influx. However, inhibition of phospholipase C activity suppressed both Ca2+ release and influx. Once activated, the influx pathway remained open in the absence of further hydrolysis of PIP2. Thapsigargin, a microsomal Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor, stimulated Ca2+ entry into the cells by a mechanism other than emptying Ca2+ stores. In addition, Ca2+ entry into the Ca(2+)-depleted cells was stimulated by low basal level of cytosolic Ca2+, not by the emptying of intracellular Ca2+ stores. Both the Ca2+ release and influx were dependent on high and low concentrations of extracellular Ca2+. At low concentrations, Mn2+ entered the cell through the Ca2+ influx pathway and quenched the sustained phase of fluorescence; whereas, at higher Mn2+ concentration both the transient and the sustained phases of fluorescence were quenched. Moreover, Ca2+ release was inhibited by low concentrations of Ni2+, La3+, and EGTA, while Ca2+ influx was inhibited by high concentrations. Thus, in T cells Ca2+ influx occurs independently of IP3-dependent Ca2+ release. However, some other PIP2 hydrolysis-dependent event was involved in prolonged activation of Ca2+ influx. Extracellular Ca2+ influenced Ca2+ release and influx through the action of two plasma membrane Ca2+ entry pathways with different pharmacological and biochemical properties.

Abstract
The relationship between histamine-induced Ca2+ mobilization and Ca2+ entry in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells has been investigated. Stopped-flow fluorimetry of fura-2-loaded chromaffin cell populations revealed that 10 microM histamine promoted entry of Ca2+ or Mn2+ without measurable delay (< or = 20 ms), through a pathway that was insensitive to the dihydropyridine antagonist nifedipine. In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, or in the presence of 100 microM La3+, a blocker of receptor-mediated Ca2+ entry, 10 microM histamine triggered an elevation in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i), but only after a delay of approx. 200 ms, which presumably represented the time required to mobilize intracellular Ca2+. These data suggested that histamine-induced bivalent-cation entry precedes extensive Ca2+ mobilization in chromaffin cells. In order to confirm that histamine can promote Ca2+ entry largely independently of mobilizing intracellular Ca2+, the ability of histamine to promote Ca2+ entry into cells whose intracellular Ca2+ store had been largely depleted was assessed. Fura-2-loaded chromaffin cells were treated with 10 microM ryanodine together with 40 mM caffeine, to deplete the hormone-sensitive Ca2+ store. This resulted in an approx. 95% inhibition of histamine-induced Ca2+ release. Under these conditions, histamine was still able to promote an entry of Ca2+ that was essentially indistinguishable from that promoted in control cells. In single cells, introduction of heparin (100 mg/ml), but not de-N-sulphated heparin (100 mg/ml), abolished the histamine-induced rise in [Ca2+]i. All these data suggest that histamine can induce G-protein- or inositol phosphate-dependent rapid (< or = 20 ms) Ca2+ entry without an extensive intracellular mobilization response in chromaffin cells, which points to activation of an entry mechanism distinct from the Ca(2+)-release-activated Ca2+ channel found in non-excitable cells.

Abstract
Quantal calcium release is a novel paradigm for second messenger signal transduction which provides spatial and temporal control of calcium release from intracellular stores by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3). We have proposed a mechanism to account for this phenomenon [Kindman, L. A., & Meyer, T. (1993) Biochemistry 32, 1270-1277], which hypothesized the existence of five channels, each with a different affinity for InsP3. As a direct test of this hypothesis, InsP3 binding to microsomes from RBL cells was examined under conditions similar to those used for calcium release. Scatchard analyses performed under a variety of conditions indicates the presence of high affinity (KD = 0.9 +/- 0.3 nM) and low affinity (KD = 47 +/- 5 nM) InsP3 binding sites. The low affinity sites are more prevalent, constituting 82 +/- 5% of the total. Both sites are identified in the presence and absence of MgATP. Moreover, both sites are selective for InsP3 over InsP4, through high concentrations of InsP4 displace InsP3 from each site (with inhibition constants of 16 and 267 nM InsP4, respectively). The relative abundance of the two InsP3 binding sites is Ca2+ dependent. An increase in Ca2+ from 0.1 to 0.5 microM results in the apparent conversion of a portion of the low affinity sites into high affinity sites into high affinity sites. Ca2+ (0.5 microM) also increased the KD of the low affinity InsP3 binding site. Given the presence of both high and low affinity InsP3 binding sites, two simple mathematical models describing both the kinetics of calcium release and quantal calcium release from RBL cells were developed.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies were raised that specifically recognize the COOH-terminal sequences and the loop sequences between the fifth and the sixth transmembrane spanning regions of human inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) type 1, 2 and 3. Western blot analysis using Jurkat cells, mouse cerebellum, COS-7 expressing IP3R type 3 cDNA showed that those monoclonal antibodies reacted specifically with each of these three IP3R subtypes and that they do not cross-react. These antibodies could be used for the specific immunoprecipitation of IP3Rs. Using these monoclonal antibodies, the expression profiles of IP3R-subtype proteins were found to be different among inflammatory cells such as macrophages, polymorphonuclear cells, mast cells, eosinophils, splenocytes, thymocytes and megakaryocytic cells. Usually, more than one type of IP3R were expressed in a cell simultaneously. The observation of CMK cells under immunofluorescence confocal microscopy revealed that IP3R type 1 and type 2 are located at different subcellular fractions.

Abstract
The idea of having two second messenger pathways in olfaction, one mediated by cAMP and the other by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, is supported by evidence that both second messengers directly activate distinct ion channels in the outer dendrite of lobster olfactory receptor neurons. Evidence that both types of second messenger-gated channels can occur in the same patch of membrane suggests that channels of both types can be expressed in one neuron. Evidence of more than one type of inositol phosphate-gated channel in this highly specialized region of the neuron furthers the idea that the output of individual olfactory receptor cells is regulated through multiple effectors and allows that effector diversity may contribute to functional diversity among olfactory receptor cells.

Abstract
Although multiple pathways are involved in the olfactory transduction mechanism, cAMP-dependent pathway has been considered to contribute mainly to the transduction. We examined the degree of contribution of cAMP-independent pathway to the turtle olfactory response by recording inward currents from isolated cells, nerve impulses from cilia and olfactory bulbar responses. The results obtained by the three recordings were essentially consistent with each other, but detail studies were carried out by recording the bulbar response to obtain quantitative data. Application of an odorant cocktail to the isolated olfactory neuron after injection of 1 mM cAMP from the patch pipette elicited a large inward current. Mean amplitude of inward currents evoked by the cocktail with 1 mM cAMP in the patch pipette was similar to that without cAMP in the pipette. Application of the cocktail after the response to 50 microM forskolin was adapted also induced a large inward current. Application of the odorant cocktail to the olfactory epithelium, after the response to 50 microM forskolin was adapted, brought about an appreciable increase in the impulse frequency. The bulbar response to forskolin alone reached a saturation level around 10 microM. After the response to 50 microM forskolin was adapted, 11 species of odorants were applied to the olfactory epithelium. The magnitudes of responses to the odorants after forskolin were 45-80% of those of the control responses. There was no essential difference in the degree of the suppression by forskolin between cAMP- and IP3-producing odorants classified in the rat, suggesting that certain part of the forskolin-suppressive component was brought about by nonspecific action of forskolin. Application of a membrane permeant cAMP analogue, cpt-cAMP elicited a large response, and 0.1 mM citralva after 3 mM cpt-cAMP elicited 51% of the control response which was close to the response to citralva after 50 microM forskolin. A membrane permeant cGMP analogue, db-cGMP elicited a small response and the response to 0.1 mM citralva was unaffected by db-cGMP. It was concluded that cAMP-independent (probably IP3-independent) pathway greatly contributes to the turtle olfactory transduction.

Abstract
The roles of heterotrimeric GTP-binding regulatory proteins (G-proteins) and inositol polyphosphates in the mechanism by which vasopressin stimulates Ca2+ inflow in hepatocytes were investigated by using single cells loaded with fura2 by microinjection. Vasopressin-stimulated Ca2+ inflow was mimicked by microinjection of guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) or guanosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate to the cells, but not adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (ATP[S]) or guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate (GDP[S]). Extracellular Gd3+ (5 microM) inhibited both vasopressin- and GTP[S]-stimulated Ca2+ inflow. GDP[S], but not GMP, administered to hepatocytes by microinjection, completely inhibited vasopressin-stimulated Ca2+ inflow and partially inhibited vasopressin-induced release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. The microinjection of pertussis toxin had no effect either on the release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores or on Ca2+ inflow induced by vasopressin, but completely inhibited changes in these processes induced by epidermal growth factor (EGF). Hepatocytes isolated from rats treated with pertussis toxin for 24 h exhibited no vasopressin- or GTP[S]-stimulated Ca2+ inflow, whereas the vasopressin-stimulated release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores was similar to that observed for control cells. Heparin or ATP[S] inhibited, or delayed the onset of, both vasopressin-induced release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and vasopressin-stimulated Ca2+ inflow. Vasopressin-induced oscillations in intracellular [Ca2+] were observed in some heparin-treated cells. It is concluded that the stimulation by vasopressin of Ca2+ inflow to hepatocytes requires inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) and, by implication, the pertussis-toxin-insensitive G-protein required for the activation of phospholipase C beta [Taylor, Chae, Rhee and Exton (1991) Nature (London) 350, 516-518], and another G-protein which is slowly ADP-ribosylated by pertussis toxin and acts between InsP3 and the putative plasma-membrane Ca2+ channel. EGF-stimulated Ca2+ inflow involves at least one G-protein which is rapidly ADP-ribosylated and is most likely required for InsP3 formation.

Abstract
In the present study we describe the characterization and localization of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4-binding sites in human platelet membranes. Specific binding sites for Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 have been identified on mixed, plasma and intracellular membranes from neuraminidase-treated platelets using highly purified carrier-free [32P]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. The displacement of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 from these sites by Ins(1,4,5)P3 and InsP6 occurs at greater than two orders of magnitude higher concentrations and with Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 at about 40-fold higher concentrations than with Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. The membranes were further separated by free-flow electrophoresis into plasma and intracellular membranes. The Ins(1,3,4,5)P4-binding sites separated with plasma membranes, and showed similar affinities and specificities as mixed membranes, whereas Ins(1,4,5)P3-binding sites were predominantly in the intracellular membranes. These results suggest a predominantly plasma membrane location for putative Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 receptors in human platelets.
