Abstract
Aberrant Ca(2+) signals within pancreatic acinar cells are an early and critical feature in acute pancreatitis, yet it is unclear how these signals are generated. An important mediator of the aberrant Ca(2+) signals due to bile acid exposure is the intracellular Ca(2+) channel ryanodine receptor. One putative activator of the ryanodine receptor is the nucleotide second messenger cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), which is generated by an ectoenzyme ADP-ribosyl cyclase, CD38. In this study, we examined the role of CD38 and cADPR in acinar cell Ca(2+) signals and acinar injury due to bile acids using pharmacologic inhibitors of CD38 and cADPR as well as mice deficient in Cd38 (Cd38(-/-)). Cytosolic Ca(2+) signals were imaged using live time-lapse confocal microscopy in freshly isolated mouse acinar cells during perifusion with the bile acid taurolithocholic acid 3-sulfate (TLCS; 500 μM). To focus on intracellular Ca(2+) release and to specifically exclude Ca(2+) influx, cells were perifused in Ca(2+)-free medium. Cell injury was assessed by lactate dehydrogenase leakage and propidium iodide uptake. Pretreatment with either nicotinamide (20 mM) or the cADPR antagonist 8-Br-cADPR (30 μM) abrogated TLCS-induced Ca(2+) signals and cell injury. TLCS-induced Ca(2+) release and cell injury were reduced by 30 and 95%, respectively, in Cd38-deficient acinar cells compared with wild-type cells (p < 0.05). Cd38-deficient mice were protected against a model of bile acid infusion pancreatitis. In summary, these data indicate that CD38-cADPR mediates bile acid-induced pancreatitis and acinar cell injury through aberrant intracellular Ca(2+) signaling.

Abstract
Cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) are Ca(2+)-mobilizing nucleotides that were discovered in the late 1980s. Two decades of investigations have built up a considerable understanding about these two molecules that are related because both are derived from pyridine nucleotides and known to be generated by CD38/ADP-ribosyl cyclases. cADPR has been shown to target the ryanodine receptors in the endoplasmic reticulum whereas NAADP stimulates the two-pore channels in the endo-lysosomes. Accumulating results indicate that cADPR and NAADP are second messenger molecules mediating Ca(2+) signaling activated by a wide range of agonists. This article reviews what is known about these two molecules, especially regarding their signaling roles in the pancreatic cells.

Abstract
Ca(2+) regulates a multitude of cellular processes and does so by partitioning its actions in space and time. In this review, we discuss how Ca(2+) responses are constructed from small quantal (elementary) events that have the potential to propagate to produce large pan-cellular responses. We review how Ca(2+) is compartmentalized both physically and functionally, and describe how each organelle has its own distinct Ca(2+)-handling properties. We explain how coordination of the movement of Ca(2+) between organelles is used to shape and hone Ca(2+) signals. Finally, we provide a number of specific examples of where compartmentation and localization of Ca(2+) are crucial to cell function.

Abstract
AIM AND METHODS Recurrent pancreatitis is a common complication of severe hypertriglyceridaemia (HTG) often seen in patients carrying various gene mutations in lipoprotein lipase (LPL). This study investigates a possible pathogenic mechanism of cell damage in isolated mouse pancreatic acinar cells and of pancreatitis in LPL-deficient and in wild type mice. RESULTS Addition of free fatty acids (FFA) or of chylomicrons to isolated pancreatic acinar cells caused stimulation of amylase release, and at higher concentrations it also caused cell damage. This effect was decreased in the presence of the lipase inhibitor orlistat. Surprisingly, pancreatic lipase whether in its active or inactive state could act like an agonist by inducing amylase secretion, increasing cellular cGMP levels and converting cell damaging sustained elevations of [Ca(2+)](cyt) to normal Ca(2+) oscillations. Caerulein increases the levels of serum amylase and caused more severe inflammation in the pancreas of LPL-deficient mice than in wild type mice. CONCLUSION We conclude that high concentrations of FFA as present in the plasma of LPL-deficient mice and in patients with HTG lead to pancreatic cell damage and are high risk factors for the development of acute pancreatitis. In addition to its enzymatic effect which leads to the generation of cell-damaging FFA from triglycerides, pancreatic lipase also prevents Ca(2+) overload in pancreatic acinar cells and, therefore, counteracts cell injury.

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
Calcium ions are ubiquitous and versatile signaling molecules, capable of decoding a variety of extracellular stimuli (hormones, neurotransmitters, growth factors, etc.) into markedly different intracellular actions, ranging from contraction to secretion, from proliferation to cell death. The key to this pleiotropic role is the complex spatiotemporal organization of the [Ca(2+)] rise evoked by extracellular agonists, which allows selected effectors to be recruited and specific actions to be initiated. In this review, we discuss the structural and functional bases that generate the subcellular heterogeneity in cellular Ca(2+) levels at rest and under stimulation. This complex choreography requires the concerted action of many different players; the central role is, of course, that of the calcium ion, with the main supporting characters being all the entities responsible for moving Ca(2+) between different compartments, while the cellular architecture provides a determining framework within which all the players have their exits and their entrances. In particular, we concentrate on the molecular mechanisms that lead to the generation of cytoplasmic Ca(2+) microdomains, focusing on their different subcellular location, mechanism of generation, and functional role.

Abstract
Calcium is a key mediator of hormone-induced enzyme secretion in pancreatic acinar cells. At the same time, abnormal Ca(2+) responses are associated with pancreatitis. We have recently shown that inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) by LY-294002 and wortmannin, as well as genetic deletion of PI3-kinase-gamma, regulates Ca(2+) responses and the Ca(2+)-sensitive trypsinogen activation in pancreatic acinar cells. The present study sought to determine the mechanisms of PI3-kinase involvement in Ca(2+) responses induced in these cells by CCK and carbachol. The PI3-kinase inhibitors inhibited both Ca(2+) influx and mobilization from intracellular stores induced by stimulation of acini with physiological and pathological concentrations of CCK, as well as with carbachol. PI3-kinase inhibition facilitated the decay of cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) oscillations observed in individual acinar cells. The PI3-kinase inhibitors decreased neither CCK-induced inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P(3)] production nor Ins(1,4,5)P(3)-induced Ca(2+) mobilization, suggesting that the effect of PI3-kinase inhibition is not through Ins(1,4,5)P(3) or Ins(1,4,5)P(3) receptors. PI3-kinase inhibition did not affect Ca(2+) mobilization induced by thapsigargin, a specific inhibitor of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA). Moreover, SERCA blockade with thapsigargin abolished the effects of pharmacological and genetic PI3-kinase inhibition on [Ca(2+)](i) signals, suggesting SERCA as a downstream target of PI3-kinase. Both pharmacological PI3-kinase inhibition and genetic deletion of PI3-kinase-gamma increased the amount of Ca(2+) in intracellular stores during CCK stimulation. Finally, addition of the PI3-kinase product phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate to permeabilized acini significantly attenuated Ca(2+) reloading into the endoplasmic reticulum. The results indicate that PI3-kinase regulates Ca(2+) signaling in pancreatic acinar cells through its inhibitory effect on SERCA.

Abstract
Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release (CICR) is a well characterized activity in skeletal and cardiac muscles mediated by the ryanodine receptors. The present study demonstrates CICR in the non-excitable parotid acinar cells, which resembles the mechanism described in cardiac myocytes. Partial depletion of internal Ca2+ stores leads to a minimal activation of Ca2+ influx. Ca2+ influx through this pathway results in an explosive mobilization of Ca2+ from the majority of the stores by CICR. Thus, stimulation of parotid acinar cells in Ca2+ -free medium with 0.5 microm carbachol releases approximately 5% of the Ca2+ mobilizable by 1 mm carbachol. Addition of external Ca2+ induced the same Ca2+ release observed in maximally stimulated cells. Similar results were obtained by a short treatment with 2.5-10 microm cyclopiazonic acid, an inhibitor of the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase pump. The Ca2+ release induced by the addition of external Ca2+ was largely independent of IP(3)Rs because it was reduced by only approximately 30% by the inhibition of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors with caffeine or heparin. Measurements of Ca2+ -activated outward current and [Ca2+](i) suggested that most CICR triggered by Ca2+ influx occurred away from the plasma membrane. Measurement of the response to several concentrations of cyclopiazonic acid revealed that Ca2+ influx that regulates CICR is associated with a selective portion of the internal Ca2+ pool. The minimal activation of Ca2+ influx by partial store depletion was confirmed by the measurement of Mn2+ influx. Inhibition of Ca2+ influx with SKF96365 or 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate prevented activation of CICR observed on addition of external Ca2+. These findings provide evidence for activation of CICR by Ca2+ influx in non-excitable cells, demonstrate a previously unrecognized role for Ca2+ influx in triggering CICR, and indicate that CICR in non-excitable cells resembles CICR in cardiac myocytes with the exception that in cardiac cells Ca2+ influx is mediated by voltage-regulated Ca2+ channels whereas in non-excitable cells Ca2+ influx is mediated by store-operated channels.

Abstract
The present study investigated mechanisms underlying apical and basolateral P2Y(1)-mediated Cl(-) secretion in human airway epithelial cells. Apical and basolateral ATP induced short-circuit currents (I(sc)) with different properties via P2Y(1) receptors. The former comprised an immediate rise followed by a slow attenuation, whereas the latter was a transient rise with a higher peak and shorter duration (< 2 min). The actions of ATP were simulated by those of ADP, ADPbetaS, and ATPgammaS. Antagonists of phosphatidylinositol-phospholipase C (U73122, ET-18-OCH(3)) were without any effect on the bilateral ATP-induced I(sc), which were, in contrast, attenuated by a phosphatidylcholine-phospholipase C inhibitor (D609) and an adenylate cyclase inhibitor (SQ22536). The responses to ATP from either aspect were also sensitive to an intracellular Ca(2+) chelator, 1,2-bis (o-amino-phenoxy)-ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid tetra-(acetoxymethyl)-ester, or a Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channel inhibitor, charybdotoxin, although differential Ca(2+) signals were concomitant with each reaction. Nystatin permeabilization studies revealed a good correlation between the I(sc) and the basolateral K(+) current rather than the apical Cl(-) current under ATP-stimulated conditions. In conclusion, apical and basolateral P2Y(1) receptors couple with both phosphatidylcholine-phospholipase C and adenylate cyclase, leading to Cl(-) secretion, whose rate is essentially regulated by the Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channel-mediated K(+) conductance. This suggests the importance of this channel in airway mucociliary clearance.

Abstract
How different extracellular stimuli can evoke different spatiotemporal Ca2+ signals is uncertain. We have elucidated a novel paradigm whereby different agonists use different Ca2+-storing organelles ("organelle selection") to evoke unique responses. Some agonists select the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and others select lysosome-related (acidic) organelles, evoking spatial Ca2+ responses that mirror the organellar distribution. In pancreatic acinar cells, acetylcholine and bombesin exclusively select the ER Ca2+ store, whereas cholecystokinin additionally recruits a lysosome-related organelle. Similarly, in a pancreatic beta cell line MIN6, acetylcholine selects only the ER, whereas glucose mobilizes Ca2+ from a lysosome-related organelle. We also show that the key to organelle selection is the agonist-specific coupling messenger(s) such that the ER is selected by recruitment of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (or cADP-ribose), whereas lysosome-related organelles are selected by NAADP.

Abstract
Working with isolated perfused S2 proximal tubules, we asked whether the basolateral CO2 sensor acts, in part, by raising intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), monitored with the dye fura 2 (or fura-PE3). In paired experiments, adding 5% CO2/22 mM HCO3- (constant pH 7.40) to the bath (basolateral) solution caused [Ca2+]i to increase from 57 +/- 3 to 97 +/- 9 nM(n = 8, P < 0.002), whereas the same maneuver in the lumen had no effect. Intracellular pH (pHi), measured with the dye BCECF, fell by 0.54 +/- 0.08 (n = 14) when we added CO2/HCO3- to the lumen. In 14 tubules in which we added CO2/HCO3- to the bath, pHi fell by 0.55 +/- 0.11 in 9 with a high initial pHi, but rose by 0.28 +/- 0.07 in the other 5 with a low initial pHi. Thus it cannot be a pHi change that triggers the [Ca2+]i increase. Introducing to the bath an out-of-equilibrium (OOE) solution containing 20% CO2/no HCO3-/pH 7.40 caused [Ca2+]i to rise by 62 +/- 17 nM (n = 10), whereas an OOE solution containing 0% CO2/22 mM HCO3-/pH 7.40 caused only a trivial increase. Removing Ca2+ from the lumen and bath, or adding 10 microM nifedipine (L- and T-type Ca2+-channel blocker) or 2 microM thapsigargin [sarco-(endo) plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor] or 4 microM rotenone (mitochondrial inhibitor) to the lumen and bath, failed to reduce the CO2-induced increase in [Ca2+]i. Adding 10 mM caffeine (ryanodine-receptor agonist) had no effect on [Ca2+]i. Thus basolateral CO2, presumably via a basolateral sensor, triggers the release of Ca2+ from a nonconventional intracellular pool.

Abstract
Cyclic ADP-ribose, a metabolite of NAD+ evokes Ca2+ release from intracellular stores in different cells. We have determined the activity of cADPr-producing enzymes (ADP-ribosyl cyclases) in different cellular fractions prepared from isolated pancreatic acinar cells by measuring the conversion of the beta-NAD+ analogs 1,N6-etheno-NAD and nicotinamide guanine dinucleotide to the fluorescent products 1,N6-etheno-cADPr and cyclic GDP-ribose, respectively. Substrate/product analyses were carried out by reverse-phase high pressure liquid chromatography. In all subcellular fractions examined (cytosol, mitochondria, plasma, and intracellular membranes), ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity was detected except in zymogen granular membranes. Western blot analysis and immunoprecipitation experiments revealed the presence of the ADP-ribosyl cyclase CD38 in both plasma membranes and mitochondria but not in the cytosol. Hormonal stimulation of intact acinar cells for 1 min with acetylcholine (ACh), cholecystokinin (CCK), or a membrane-permeant analog of cGMP increased ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity in the cytosol by 1.8-, 1.6-, and 1.9-fold, respectively, as compared with the control but had no effect in any other fraction. Both ACh and CCK also increased accumulation of cGMP in the cells by about 2-fold. Bombesin had no significant effect on either ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity or cGMP accumulation within this short period of stimulation. We conclude that at least two types of ADP-ribosyl cyclases are present in pancreatic acinar cells: membrane-bound CD38 and a cytosolic enzyme different from CD38. Stimulation of pancreatic acinar cells with CCK or ACh results in exclusive activation of the cytosolic ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity, most likely mediated by cGMP.

Abstract
Cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPr) is a second messenger that regulates intracellular free [Ca2+] ([Ca2+](i)) in a variety of cell types, including immature oocytes from the starfish Astropecten auranciacus. In this study, we employed confocal laser scanning microscopy and voltage clamp techniques to investigate the source of the cADPr-elicited Ca2+ wave originating from the cortical Ca2+ patches we have described previously. The Ca2+ swing was accompanied by a membrane current with a reversal potential of approximately +20 mV. Decreasing external Na+ almost abolished the current without affecting the Ca2+ response. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ altered neither the Ca2+ transient nor the ionic current, nor did the holding potential exert any effect on the Ca2+ wave. Both the Ca2+ response and the membrane current were abolished when BAPTA, ruthenium red or 8-NH(2)-cADPr were preinjected into the oocytes, while perfusion with ADPr did not elicit any [Ca2+](i) increase or ionic current. However, elevating [Ca2+](i) by uncaging Ca2+ from nitrophenyl- (NP-EGTA) or by photoliberating inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP(3)) induced an ionic current with biophysical properties similar to that elicited by cADPr. These results suggest that cADPr activates a Ca2+ wave by releasing Ca2+ from intracellular ryanodine receptors and that the rise in [Ca2+](i) triggers a non-selective monovalent cation current that does not seem to contribute to the global Ca2+ elevation.

Abstract
Cells use signalling networks to translate with high fidelity extracellular signals into specific cellular functions. Signalling networks are often composed of multiple signalling pathways that act in concert to regulate a particular cellular function. In the centre of the networks are the receptors that receive and transduce the signals. A versatile family of receptors that detect a remarkable variety of signals are the G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Virtually all cells express several GPCRs that use the same biochemical machinery to transduce their signals. Considering the specificity and fidelity of signal transduction, a central question in cell signalling is how signalling specificity is achieved, in particular among GPCRs that use the same biochemical machinery. Ca(2+) signalling is particularly suitable to address such questions, since [Ca(2+)](i) can be recorded with excellent spatial and temporal resolutions in living cells and tissues and now in living animals. Ca(2+) is a unique second messenger in that both biochemical and biophysical components form the Ca(2+) signalling complex to regulate its concentration. Both components act in concert to generate repetitive [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations that can be either localized or in the form of global, propagating Ca(2+) waves. Most of the key proteins that form Ca(2+) signalling complexes are known and their activities are reasonably well understood on the biochemical and biophysical levels. We review here the information gained from studying Ca(2+) signalling by GPCRs to gain further understanding of the mechanisms used to generate cellular signalling specificity.

Abstract
The discovery of cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose (cADPR) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) as Ca(2+) releasing messengers has provided additional insight into how complex Ca(2+) signalling patterns are generated. There is mounting evidence that these molecules along with the more established messenger, myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)), have a widespread messenger role in shaping Ca(2+) signals in many cell types. These molecules have distinct structures and act on specific Ca(2+) release mechanisms. Emerging principles are that cADPR enhances the Ca(2+) sensitivity of ryanodine receptors (RYRs) to produce prolonged Ca(2+) signals through Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release (CICR), while NAADP acts on a novel Ca(2+) release mechanism to produce a local trigger Ca(2+) signal which can be amplified by CICR by recruiting other Ca(2+) release mechanisms. Whilst IP(3) and cADPR mobilise Ca(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), recent evidence from the sea urchin egg suggests that the major NAADP-sensitive Ca(2+) stores are reserve granules, acidic lysosomal-related organelles. In this review we summarise the role of multiple Ca(2+) mobilising messengers, Ca(2+) release channels and Ca(2+) stores, and the interplay between them, in the generation of specific Ca(2+) signals. Focusing upon cADPR and NAADP, we discuss how cellular stimuli may draw upon different combinations of these messengers to produce distinct Ca(2+) signalling signatures.

Abstract
Continuing progress is being made in understanding the regulation of pancreatic acinar cell function by receptor-activated intracellular signaling mechanisms. Knowledge of how ligands interact at the molecular level with their receptors and activate heterotrimeric G proteins is increasing. In addition to inositol trisphosphate, intracellular messengers include cyclic ADP ribose, nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate, arachidonic acid, and diacylglycerol. Ca signaling involves the interaction of inositol trisphosphate, cyclic ADP ribose, and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate with distinct subcellular Ca stores. Ca signals ultimately induce exocytosis of zymogen granules and identification of the proteins involved on the granule and plasma membrane, and understanding of their roles is continuing. Other receptor-activated signaling pathways primarily regulate nonsecretory events. Considerable progress has been made in understanding how the mammalian target of rapamycin pathway regulates protein synthesis through translation factors and ribosomal proteins. Other pathways in acinar cells include the mitogen-activated protein kinases, the tyrosine kinases, and the transforming growth factor-beta-Smad pathways.

Abstract
Recent evidence suggests that multiple calcium-releasing messengers might be activated simultaneously to regulate patterns of intracellular calcium signalling. In this way, agonists might use different messenger cocktails to encode specific signals and target selected processes.

Abstract
The effect of trichloroethanol (TCEt), the active metabolite of chloral hydrate, on the intracellular concentration of calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)) was investigated in rat submandibular glands (RSMG) acini loaded with fura-2. TCEt (1 - 10 mM) increased the [Ca(2+)](i) independently of the presence of calcium in the extracellular medium. Dichloroethanol (DCEt) and monochloroethanol (MCEt) reproduced the stimulatory effect of TCEt but at much higher concentrations (about 6 fold higher for DCEt and 20 fold higher for MCEt). TCEt mobilized an intracellular pool of calcium, which was depleted by a pretreatment with thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the sarcoplasmic and endoplasmic reticulum calcium-dependent ATPases, but not with FCCP, an uncoupler of mitochondria. TCEt 10 mM inhibited by 50% the thapsigargin-sensitive microsomal Ca(2+)-ATPase. DCEt 10 mM and MCEt 10 mM inhibited the ATPase by 20 and 10%, respectively. TCEt inhibited the increase of the [Ca(2+)](i) and the production of inositol phosphates in response to carbachol, epinephrine and substance P. TCEt inhibited the uptake of calcium mediated by the store-operated calcium channel (SOCC). ATP and Bz-ATP increased the [Ca(2+)](i) in RSMG acini and this effect was blocked by extracellular magnesium, by Coomassie blue and by oxydized ATP (oATP). TCEt potentiated the increase of the [Ca(2+)](i) and of the uptake of extracellular calcium in response to ATP and Bz-ATP. TCEt had no effect on the uptake of barium and of ethidium bromide in response to purinergic agonists. These results suggest that TCEt, at sedative concentrations, exerts various effects on the calcium regulation: (1) it mobilizes a thapsigargin-sensitive intracellular pool of calcium in RSMG acini; (2) it inhibits the uptake of calcium via the SOCC; (3) it inhibits the activation by G protein-coupled receptors of a polyphosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C. It does not interfere with the activation of the ionotropic P2X receptors. The use of chloral hydrate should be avoided in studies exploring the in vivo responses to sialagogues.
