Abstract
The introduction of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) has switched HIV-1 infection from a lethal disease to a chronic one. Indeed, cART is a lifelong treatment since its interruption is always followed by a rapid rebound of viremia from both cellular and anatomical viral reservoirs where the integrated HIV-1 provirus remains transcriptionally silent or maintains low-levels of viral replication, thereby preventing HIV-1 eradication. As therapeutic approach, the "shock and kill" strategy has emerged with the main objective to reactivate HIV-1 transcription from latency by using latency reversing agents (LRAs) prior to kill the reactivated infected cells by improving host immune responses. In this context, the development of tools such as HIV-1 latently infected cell lines have drastically increased our knowledge about HIV-1 latency and how to counteract this highly heterogeneous phenomenon. In this chapter, we will describe several chronically HIV-1 infected T-lymphocytic cell lines as useful surrogate models to study reversible HIV-1 proviral latency in CD4+ T cells in vitro before approaching more complex and expensive models.

Abstract
Calcium ions (Ca2+) act as secondary messengers in a plethora of cellular processes and play crucial role in cellular organelle function and homeostasis. The average resting concentration of Ca2+ is nearly 100 nM and in certain cells it can reach up to 1 µM. The high range of Ca2+ concentration across the plasma membrane and intracellular Ca2+ stores demands a well-coordinated maintenance of free Ca2+ via influx, efflux, buffering and storage. Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) and Mitochondria depend on Ca2+ for their function and also serve as major players in intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis. The ER-mitochondria interplay helps in orchestrating cellular calcium homeostasis to avoid any detrimental effect resulting from Ca2+ overload or depletion. Since Ca2+ plays a central role in many biological processes it is an essential component of the virus-host interactions. The large gradient across membranes enable the viruses to easily modulate this buffered environment to meet their needs. Viruses exploit Ca2+ signaling to establish productive infection and evade the host immune defense. In this review we will detail the interplay between the viruses and cellular & ER-mitochondrial calcium signaling and the significance of these events on viral life cycle and disease pathogenesis.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium homeostasis plays an essential role in cellular calcium signaling, intra-ER protein chaperoning and maturation, as well as in the interaction of the ER with other organelles. Calcium is accumulated in the ER by sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPases (SERCA enzymes) that generate by active, ATP-dependent transport, a several thousand-fold calcium ion concentration gradient between the cytosol (low nanomolar) and the ER lumen (high micromolar). SERCA enzymes are coded by three genes that by alternative splicing give rise to several isoforms, which can display isoform-specific calcium transport characteristics. SERCA expression levels and isoenzyme composition vary according to cell type, and this constitutes a mechanism whereby ER calcium homeostasis is adapted to the signaling and metabolic needs of the cell, depending on its phenotype, its state of activation and differentiation. As reviewed here, in several normal epithelial cell types including bronchial, mammary, gastric, colonic and choroid plexus epithelium, as well as in mature cells of hematopoietic origin such as pumps are simultaneously expressed, whereas in corresponding tumors and leukemias SERCA3 expression is selectively down-regulated. SERCA3 expression is restored during the pharmacologically induced differentiation of various cancer and leukemia cell types. SERCA3 is a useful marker for the study of cell differentiation, and the loss of SERCA3 expression constitutes a previously unrecognized example of the remodeling of calcium homeostasis in tumors.

Abstract
The elite controller (EC)-long term non-progressor (LTNP) phenotype represent a spontaneous and advantageous model of HIV-1 control in the absence of therapy. The transcriptome of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) collected from EC-LTNPs was sequenced by RNA-Seq and compared with the transcriptomes from other phenotypes of disease progression. The transcript abundance estimation combined with the use of supervised classification algorithms allowed the selection of 20 genes and pseudogenes, mainly involved in interferon-regulated antiviral mechanisms and cell machineries of transcription and translation, as the best predictive genes of disease progression. Differential expression analyses between phenotypes showed an altered calcium homeostasis in EC-LTNPs evidenced by the upregulation of several membrane receptors implicated in calcium-signaling cascades and intracellular calcium-mobilization and by the overrepresentation of NFAT1/Elk-1-binding sites in the promoters of the genes differentially expressed in these individuals. A coordinated upregulation of host genes associated with HIV-1 reverse transcription and viral transcription was also observed in EC-LTNPs –i.e. p21/CDKN1A, TNF, IER3 and GADD45B. We also found an upregulation of ANKRD54 in EC-LTNPs and viremic LTNPs in comparison with typical progressors and a clear alteration of type-I interferon signaling as a consequence of viremia in typical progressors before and after receiving antiretroviral therapy.

Abstract
Human immunodeficiency type 1 virus accessory protein Nef is a key modulator of AIDS pathogenesis. With no enzymatic activity, Nef regulated functions in host cells largely depends on its ability to form multi-protein complex with the cellular proteins. Here, we identified Calcium (Ca2+)/Calmodulin dependent protein kinase II subunit delta (CAMKIIδ) as novel Nef interacting host protein. Further, we confirmed that Nef mediated [Ca2+]I promote formation of Nef-CAMKIIδ - apoptosis signal-regulating kinase (ASK-1) heterotrimeric complex. The assembly of Nef with CAMKIIδ - ASK-1 inhibits the downstream p38MAPK phosphorylation resulting in abrogation of apoptosis. Further, using competitive peptide inhibitors against Nef binding domains to CAMKIIδ, identified in the present study and ASK-1, individually blocked physical interaction of Nef with CAMKIIδ-ASK-1 complex and restored p38MAPK phosphorylation and apoptosis. Altogether, our study indicates that HIV-Nef modulates cytosolic [Ca2+]I and blocks CAMKIIδ - ASK-1 kinase activity to inhibit apoptosis of infected cells.

Abstract
The chemical receptors present in living organisms are promising tools for developing biomimetic chemical sensors. However, these receptors require lipid membranes for functioning under physiological conditions, which prevents their utilization in the production of cell-free in vitro chemical sensing systems. Here, we report the development of a cell-free biomimetic sensing platform using virus-like particles (VLPs) with intact ligand-gated Ca2+ channels and genetically encoded Ca2+ indicator (GECI). We observed that targeting GECI to the plasma membrane was essential for efficient loading GECI in the VLPs. Although the physiological Ca2+ concentration [Ca2+] maintained in the cells was low (∼10 nM), the concentration in the VLPs was high. This prevented the detection of the increase in [Ca2+] caused by binding of the ligand to the receptor. To address this problem, we employed Lyn-R-CEPIA1, which had low affinity for Ca2+, and a membrane targeting sequence. Thus, we succeeded in monitoring the activation of cyclic nucleotide-gated channels (CNG) on the VLPs by measuring the increase in fluorescence of Lyn-R-CEPIA1. Our VLP-based sensing system can act as a fundamental platform for all kinds of ligand-gated channels.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a major intracellular calcium storage pool and a multifunctional organelle that accomplishes several calcium-dependent functions involved in many homeostatic and signaling mechanisms. Calcium is accumulated in the ER by Sarco/Endoplasmic Reticulum Calcium ATPase (SERCA)-type calcium pumps. SERCA activity can determine ER calcium content available for intra-ER functions and for calcium release into the cytosol, and can shape the spatiotemporal characteristics of calcium signals. SERCA function therefore constitutes an important nodal point in the regulation of cellular calcium homeostasis and signaling, and can exert important effects on cell growth, differentiation and survival. In several cell types such as cells of hematopoietic origin, mammary, gastric and colonic epithelium, SERCA2 and SERCA3-type calcium pumps are simultaneously expressed, and SERCA3 expression levels undergo significant changes during cell differentiation, activation or immortalization. In addition, SERCA3 expression is decreased or lost in several tumor types when compared to the corresponding normal tissue. These observations indicate that ER calcium homeostasis is remodeled during cell differentiation, and may present defects due to decreased SERCA3 expression in tumors. Modulation of the state of differentiation of the ER reflected by SERCA3 expression constitutes an interesting new aspect of cell differentiation and tumor biology.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum calcium homeostasis is involved in a multitude of signaling, as well as "house-keeping" functions that control cell growth, differentiation or apoptosis in every human/eukaryotic cell. Calcium is actively accumulated in the endoplasmic reticulum by Sarco/Endoplasmic Reticulum Calcium transport ATPases (SERCA enzymes). SERCA-dependent calcium transport is the only calcium uptake mechanism in this organelle, and therefore the regulation of SERCA function by the cell constitutes a key mechanism to adjust calcium homeostasis in the endoplasmic reticulum depending on the cell type and its state of differentiation. The direct pharmacological modulation of SERCA activity affects cell differentiation and survival. SERCA expression levels can undergo significant changes during cell differentiation or tumorigenesis, leading to modified endoplasmic reticulum calcium storage. In several cell types such as cells of hematopoietic origin or various epithelial cells, two SERCA genes (SERCA2 and SERCA3) are simultaneously expressed. Expression levels of SERCA3, a lower calcium affinity calcium pump are highly variable. In several cell systems SERCA3 expression is selectively induced during differentiation, whereas during tumorigenesis and blastic transformation SERCA3 expression is decreased. These observations point at the existence of a cross-talk, via the regulation of SERCA3 levels, between endoplasmic reticulum calcium homeostasis and the control of cell differentiation, and show that endoplasmic reticulum calcium homeostasis itself can undergo remodeling during differentiation. The investigation of the anomalies of endoplasmic reticulum differentiation in tumor and leukemia cells may be useful for a better understanding of the contribution of calcium signaling to the establishment of malignant phenotypes.

Abstract
Calpains are calcium-dependent cysteine proteases that degrade cytoskeletal and cytoplasmic proteins. We have studied the role of calpains in the life cycle of human echovirus 1 (EV1). The calpain inhibitors, including calpeptin, calpain inhibitor 1, and calpain inhibitor 2 as well as calpain 1 and calpain 2 short interfering RNAs, completely blocked EV1 infection in the host cells. The effect of the inhibitors was not specific for EV1, because they also inhibited infection by other picornaviruses, namely, human parechovirus 1 and coxsackievirus B3. The importance of the calpains in EV1 infection also was supported by the fact that EV1 increased calpain activity 3 h postinfection. Confocal microscopy and immunoelectron microscopy showed that the EV1/caveolin-1-positive vesicles also contain calpain 1 and 2. Our results indicate that calpains are not required for virus entry but that they are important at a later stage of infection. Calpain inhibitors blocked the production of EV1 particles after microinjection of EV1 RNA into the cells, and they effectively inhibited the synthesis of viral RNA in the host cells. Thus, both calpain 1 and calpain 2 are essential for the replication of EV1 RNA.

Abstract
Since calcium-signaling regulates specific and fundamental cellular processes, it represents the ideal target of viral proteins, in order for the virus to control cellular functions and favour its persistence, multiplication and spread. A detailed analysis of reports focused on the impact of viral proteins on calcium-signaling has shown that virus-related elevations of cytosolic calcium levels allow increased viral protein expression (HIV-1, HSV-1/2), viral replication (HBx, enterovirus 2B, HTLV-1 p12(I), HHV-8, EBV), viral maturation (rotavirus), viral release (enterovirus 2B) and cell immortalization (EBV). Interestingly, virus-induced decreased cytosolic calcium levels have been found to be associated with inhibition of immune cells functions (HIV-1 Tat, HHV-8 K15, EBV LMP2A). Finally, several viral proteins are able to modulate intracellular calcium-signaling to control cell viability (HIV-1 Tat, HTLV-1 p13(II), HCV core, HBx, enterovirus 2B, HHV-8 K7). These data point out calcium-signaling as a key cellular target for viral infection and should stimulate further studies exploring new calcium-related therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
To evaluate the possible HIV-1 infection-induced changes in cell membrane properties and in calcium signaling, membrane fluidity, acetylcholinesterase (AChE, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein) activity, and intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2(+)](int)) were evaluated in lymphocytes and erythrocytes of infected individuals, previous to their engagement in antiretroviral therapy. Membrane fluidity was assessed by fluorescence spectroscopy measurements, using the fluorescence probes 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) and 1-[4-(trimethylamino)-phenyl]-6-phenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (TMA-DPH). AChE activity was determined by the colorimetric Ellman's method and [Ca2(+)](int) using the fluorescent fura-2 acetoxymethyl ester. When compared with the control group, lymphocytes of infected patients presented significantly decreased membrane fluidity, decreased AChE activity, and increased [Ca2(+)](int). Erythrocytes from HIV-infected patients presented decreased [Ca2(+)](int) when compared with the control group and decreased membrane fluidity near the lipid/water interface. Our data show that HIV-1 infection leads to biochemical and biophysical changes in the membrane itself and in membrane protein activity in lymphocytes (average of infected and noninfected subpopulations) and even in erythrocytes. The present observations are in agreement with a process of facilitated propagation of the infection to new cells, stimulation of virion production, and maintenance of a reservoir of erythrocyte-bound infectious virus.

Abstract
The continued high rates of unintended pregnancies and the unrelentless expansion of the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) epidemic, especially in less developed countries, warrant the development of novel strategies to help individuals avoid these risks. Dually active compounds displaying contraceptive and microbicidal anti-human immunodeficiency virus (anti-HIV) properties constitute one such strategy. Sharing the same anatomical and functional context, sperm fertilization and genital infection by HIV offer an opportunity for simultaneous intervention. Some of the molecules and mechanisms used by sperm to fertilize the oocyte are similar, if not identical, to those used by HIV while infecting host cells. An example of common structures is the lipid membrane surrounding the spermatozoon and the HIV core. Disruption of its architecture by surface-active compounds exerts both spermicidal and virucidal activity. A more specific alteration of lipid rafts [membrane microdomains enriched in cholesterol and glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins] by beta-cyclodextrins also results in similar effects. During fertilization and infection, both sperm and HIV interact with their target cell receptors through chemical charges, hydrophobic forces and carbohydrate recognition. Anionic polymers such as cellulose sulphate and polystyrene sulphonate (PSS) inhibit sperm and HIV cell binding. Because some of the molecules involved in this interaction, e.g. heparin sulphate proteoglycan, are also used by other pathogens to infect their target tissues, polyanions exert broad antimicrobial activity as well. During fertilization and infection, sperm and HIV, as well as other microbes, use signal transduction molecules and mechanisms such as adenyl cyclase/cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent kinase, calcium and tyrosine phosphorylation, whose inhibition has been shown to impair sperm function and HIV replication. These commonalities at the level of sperm and HIV structure, cell binding and fusion processes, and signalling pathways therefore provide the biological framework to develop bifunctional inhibitors with both antimicrobial and contraceptive properties.

Abstract
The calcium homeostasis of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is connected to a multitude of cell functions involved in intracellular signal transduction, control of proliferation, programmed cell death, or the synthesis of mature proteins. Calcium is accumulated in the ER by various biochemically distinct sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium transport ATPase isoenzymes (SERCA isoforms). Experimental data indicate that the SERCA composition of some carcinoma and leukaemia cell types undergoes significant changes during differentiation, and that this is accompanied by modifications of SERCA-dependent calcium accumulation in the ER. Because ER calcium homeostasis can also influence cell differentiation, we propose that the modulation of the expression of various SERCA isoforms, and in particular, the induction of the expression of SERCA3-type proteins, is an integral part of the differentiation program of some cancer and leukaemia cell types. The SERCA content of the ER may constitute a new parameter by which the calcium homeostatic characteristics of the organelle are adjusted. The cross-talk between ER calcium homeostasis and cell differentiation may have some implications for the better understanding of the signalling defects involved in the acquisition and maintenance of the malignant phenotype.

Abstract
Sarco-endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA) enzymes control calcium-induced cellular activation by accumulating calcium from the cytosol into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). To better understand the role of SERCA proteins and cellular calcium homeostasis in all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)-induced differentiation, we investigated the effect of pharmacologic inhibition of SERCA-dependent calcium uptake into the ER on ATRA-induced differentiation of the HL-60 myelogenous and the NB4 promyelocytic cell lines. SERCA inhibitors di-tert-butyl-benzohydroquinone (tBHQ), thapsigargin, and cyclopiazonic acid significantly enhanced the induction of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase activity and CD11b marker expression induced by suboptimal concentrations of ATRA (50 nM) in both cell lines. Analysis of cellular calcium homeostasis revealed that a 60% mobilization of the total SERCA-dependent intracellular calcium pool was necessary to obtain enhancement of ATRA-dependent differentiation by tBHQ. Moreover, after 3 days of ATRA treatment in combination with tBHQ, NB4 cells showed a significantly decreased calcium mobilization compared with treatments with tBHQ or ATRA alone, suggesting that enhanced differentiation and calcium mobilization are causally related. Interestingly, several ATRA-resistant NB4-derived cell lines were partially responsive to the differentiation-inducing effect of the combination of the 2 drugs. In addition, we found that retinoic acid receptor alpha (RAR alpha) and PML-RAR alpha proteins are protected from ATRA-induced proteolytic degradation by SERCA inhibition, indicating that cellular calcium homeostasis may interact with signaling systems involved in the control of ATRA-dependent transcriptional activity. By linking calcium to ATRA-dependent signaling, our data open new avenues in the understanding of the mechanisms of differentiation-induction therapy of leukemia.

Abstract
Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum-type calcium transport ATPases (SERCA enzymes) pump calcium ions from the cytosol into the endoplasmic reticulum. We report that in addition to the ubiquitously expressed SERCA2b isoform, a new splice variant of SERCA2 can be detected (SERCA2c) that arises from the inclusion of a short intronic sequence located between exons 20 and 21 of the SERCA2a isoform. Sequence analysis revealed classical splice donor and acceptor sites, as well as a branch-point site. Due to the presence in the new exon of an in-frame stop codon that is preceded by a 17 bp coding sequence, this mRNA potentially codes for a protein with a truncated C-terminus containing a short unique C-terminal peptide stretch. SERCA2c message was detected in epithelial, mesenchymal, and hematopoietic cell lines, as well as in primary human monocytes. Moreover, we found that during monocytic differentiation total SERCA2 ATPase expression is induced on the protein and mRNA level and that the novel SERCA2c messenger is also up-regulated during this process. These data indicate that the alternative splicing pattern of the 3(') region of the SERCA2 primary transcript is more complex than that previously thought and that this enzyme may be involved in the process of monocyte differentiation.

Abstract
The calcium ionophore A23187, which was used to increase the intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i), was analyzed for effects on bovine leukemia virus (BLV) expression in two BLV infected cell lines. To clarify the role of intracellular free calcium in this response, [Ca2+]i was measured during ionophore treatment with the fluorescent calcium indicator Fura-2. Elevation of intracellular calcium under these conditions caused an enhancement of BLV gp51 and p24 synthesis as well as an activation of the BLV long terminal repeat (LTR) in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, it was observed that elevated levels of intracellular calcium following A23187 stimulation lead to activation of NF-kappaB. Based on inhibitor studies, we hypothesize that the effect of A23187 on BLV expression appears to be mediated by PKC.

Abstract
Ca2+ plays a key role in many pathological processes, including viral infections. Rotavirus, the major etiological agent of viral gastroenteritis in children and young animals, provides a useful model to study a number of Ca2+ dependent virus-cell interactions. Rotavirus entry, activation of transcription, morphogenesis, cell lysis, particle release, and the distant action of viral proteins are Ca2+ dependent processes. In the extracellular medium, Ca2+ stabilizes the structure of the viral capsid. During entry into the cell the low cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration induced the solubilization of the outer protein layer of the capsid and transcriptase activation. Viral protein synthesis modifies Ca2+ homeostasis which, in turn, favours viral morphogenesis and induces cell death. The generation of diarrhea is a multifactorial process involving Ca2+ dependent secretory processes of mediators and water and electrolytes, as well as the induction of cell death in the different cell types that compose the intestinal epithelium. The discovery of the non-structural viral protein NSP4 as a viral enterotoxin and the possible participation of the enteric nervous system in the pathogenesis of diarrhea represent significant advances in its understanding. Ca2+ also plays a role in the replication cycles and pathogenesis of other viral diseases such as poliovirus, Coxsackie virus, cytomegalovirus, vaccinia and measles virus and HIV.

Abstract
1. The present study was carried out to clarify the effect of the imidazole antimycotics econazole, bifonazole and clotrimazole on prostanoid biosynthesis. Osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells stimulated by endothelin-1, melittin, ionomycin or arachidonic acid showed diminished prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) production upon pretreatment with econazole. Following pretreatment with bifonazole, stimulation with ionomycin or arachidonic acid also resulted in decreased PGE(2) formation. Clotrimazole inhibited ionomycin but not arachidonic acid stimulated PGE(2) synthesis in MC3T3-E1 cells. 2. The results observed in osteoblast-like UMR-106 cells pretreated with econazole, bifonazole or clotrimazole and stimulated by arachidonic acid were similar with the exception of clotrimazole which was a more effective inhibitor of PGE(2) biosynthesis than in MC3T3-E1 cells. 3. Upon treatment with arachidonic acid thromboxane B(2) (TXB(2)) production in human platelets was abolished completely at concentrations of the three imidazole antimycotics higher than 5 microM (IC(50)<1 microM). 4. These data were confirmed by a direct assay using purified ram seminal vesicle prostaglandin H(2) synthase-1 (PGHS-1), which clearly showed inhibitory properties of econazole (IC(50) 4.7+/-2.3 microM), bifonazole (IC(50) 9.4+/-0.8 microM) and clotrimazole (IC(50) 4.4+/-0.6 microM). 5. Summarizing, these results indicate an inhibitory effect of econazole, bifonazole and clotrimazole on PGHS-1, varying in its potency dependent on the cell system used. In addition TXB(2) formation is affected at doses even lower than those needed to suppress PGE(2) biosynthesis.

Abstract
Calcium is accumulated from the cytosol into the endoplasmic reticulum by sarco-endoplasmic reticulum calcium transport ATPase (SERCA) enzymes. Because calcium stored in the endoplasmic reticulum is essential for cell growth, differentiation, calcium signaling, and apoptosis and because different SERCA enzymes possess distinct functional characteristics, in the present report we explored SERCA expression during in vitro differentiation of the human myeloid/promyelocytic cell lines HL-60 and NB4 and of freshly isolated acute promyelocytic leukemia cells. Two SERCA species have been found to be coexpressed in these cells: SERCA 2b and another isoform, SERCAPLIM, which is recognized by the PLIM430 monoclonal antibody. Induction of differentiation along the neutrophil granulocytic lineage by all-trans retinoic acid or cyclic AMP analogs led to an increased expression of SERCAPLIM, whereas the expression of the SERCA 2b isoform was decreased. The modulation of SERCA expression was manifest also on the mRNA level. Experiments with retinoic acid receptor isoform-specific retinoids indicated that SERCA expression is modulated by retinoic acid receptor -dependent signaling. SERCA expression of retinoic acid-resistant cell variants was refractory to treatment. Differentiation along the monocyte/macrophage lineage by phorbol ester resulted in an increased expression of both SERCA isoforms. In addition, when cells were treated by phorbol ester in the presence of the glucocorticoid dexamethasone, a known inhibitor of monocyte differentiation, a selective blockage of the induction of SERCAPLIM was observed. Altered SERCA expression modified the functional characteristics of calcium transport into the endoplasmic reticulum. These observations show for the first time that the modulation of calcium pump expression is an integral component of the differentiation program of myeloid precursors and indicate that a lineage-specific remodelling of the endoplasmic reticulum occurs during cell maturation. In addition, these data show that SERCA isoforms may serve as useful markers for the study of myeloid differentiation.

Abstract
Calcium mobilization from intracellular storage organelles is a key component of the second messenger system inducing cell activation. Calcium transport ATPases associated with intracellular calcium storage organelles play a major role in controlling this process by accumulating calcium from the cytosol into intracellular calcium pools. In this study the modulation of the expression of the sarco-endoplasmic reticulum calcium transport ATPase (SERCA) isoenzymes has been studied in lymphocytes undergoing phorbol myristate acetate and ionomycin-induced activation. In several T lymphocyte cell lines a combined treatment by the two drugs resulted in an approximately 90% decrease of the expression of the calcium pump isoform recognized by the PLIM430 isoform-specific antibody, whereas the expression of the SERCA 2b isoform was increased approximately 2-fold. Phorbol ester or ionomycin applied separately was ineffective. In Jurkat T cells the down-modulation of expression of the SERCA isoform recognized by the PLIM430 antibody appeared concomitantly with the induction of interleukin-2 expression and could be inhibited by the immunosuppressant drug cyclosporine-A. These data indicate that T cell activation induces a selective and cyclosporine-A-sensitive modulation of the expression of the SERCA calcium pump isoforms. This reflects a profound reorganization of the calcium homeostasis of T cells undergoing activation and may open new avenues in the understanding of the plasticity of the calcium homeostasis of differentiating cells and in the pharmacological modulation of lymphocyte function.

Abstract
Modulation of cellular thiols is an effective therapeutic strategy, particularly in the treatment of AIDS. Lipoic acid, a metabolic antioxidant, functions as a redox modulator and has proven clinically beneficial effects. It is also used as a dietary supplement. We utilized the specific capabilities of N-ethylmaleimide to block total cellular thiols, phenylarsine oxide to block vicinal dithiols, and buthionine sulfoximine to deplete cellular GSH to flow cytometrically investigate how these thiol pools are influenced by exogenous lipoate treatment. Low concentrations of lipoate and its analogue lipoamide increased Jurkat cell GSH in a dose-dependent manner between 10 (25 microM for lipoamide) to 100 microM. This was also observed in mitogenically stimulated peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL). Studies with Jurkat cells and its Wurzburg subclone showed that lipoate dependent increase in cellular GSH was similar in CD4+ and - cells. Chronic (16 week) exposure of cells to lipoate resulted in further increase of total cellular thiols, vicinal dithiols, and GSH. High concentration (2 and 5 mM) of lipoate exhibited cell shrinkage, thiol depletion, and DNA fragmentation effects. Based on similar effects of octanoic acid, the cytotoxic effects of lipoate at high concentration could be attributed to its fatty acid structure. In certain diseases such as AIDS and cancer, elevated plasma glutamate lowers cellular GSH by inhibiting cystine uptake. Low concentrations of lipoate and lipoamide were able to bypass the adverse effect of elevated extracellular glutamate. A heterogeneity in the thiol status of PBL was observed. Lipoate, lipoamide, or N-acetylcysteine corrected the deficient thiol status of cell subpopulations. Hence, the favorable effects of low concentrations of lipoate treatment appears clinically relevant.

Abstract
In human Jurkat T cells and its subclone Wurzburg cells oxidant challenge elevated [Ca2+]i by mobilizing Ca2+ from intracellular stores. In Jurkat cells this effect was rapid and transient, but in Wurzburg cells the response was slow and sustained. H2O2-induced NF-kappaB activation in Wurzburg cells was not influenced by the presence of extracellular EGTA but was totally inhibited in cells that were loaded with esterified EGTA. In Jurkat cells that are not sensitive to H2O2-induced NF-kappaB activation, H2O2 potentiated NF-kappaB activation in the presence of sustained high [Ca2+]i following thapsigargin treatment. NF-kappaB regulatory effect of alpha-lipoate and N-acetylcysteine appeared to be, at least in part, due to their ability to stabilize elevation of [Ca2+]i following oxidant challenge. Results of this study indicate that a sustained elevated [Ca2+]i is a significant factor in oxidant-induced NF-kappaB activation.
