Abstract
Epidemiological investigations and animal studies demonstrate a significantly positive relationship between polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) exposure and reproductive disorders. However, few researches are focused on the reproductive toxicity of low-molecular-weight PAHs (number of benzene ring ≤ 3) which occupy a large part of PAHs. Phenanthrene (Phe), a typical low-molecular-weight PAH, is one of the most abundant PAHs detected in foods. In the present study, oral treatment with Phe at a human exposure related level during gestation (60 μg/kg body weight every three days, six times in total) induced reproductive disorders in F1 adult female mice: the number of antral follicles (an immature stage of follicular development) were significantly increased, while the maturation of oocytes was inhibited and aggravated follicular atresia was observed; the serum levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), testosterone and estradiol were significantly reduced; the receptor of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSHR) and aromatase in the ovary were significantly upregulated; transcriptome analysis demonstrated that the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt) signal pathway was upregulated, and the calcium signal pathway was disturbed, which probably accounts for the exacerbated atresia of the growing follicles and the excessive consumption of follicles. The reproductive toxicity of low-molecular-weight PAHs could not be neglected.

Abstract
Post-tetanic potentiation (PTP) of force depends on intramuscular Ca2+ levels and sensitivity and may be affected by fatigue. The aim of this study was to determine the ability of isolated fast fatigue-resistant (FR) and fast-fatigable (FF) motor units (MUs) to potentiate force evoked with single and 40-Hz electrical stimulation after 5 weeks of voluntary weight-lifting training. Tetanic contractions evoked by gradually increasing (10–150 Hz) stimulation frequency served as conditioning stimulation. Additionally, the concentration of myosin light chain kinase and proteins engaged in calcium handling was measured in rat fast medial gastrocnemius muscle. After the training, the potentiation of twitch force and peak rate of force development was increased in FF but not FR MUs. Force potentiation of 40-Hz tetanic contractions was increased in both fast MU types. After the training, the twitch duration of FR MUs was decreased, and FF MUs were less prone to high-frequency fatigue during conditioning stimulation. Muscle concentration of triadin was increased, whereas concentrations of ryanodine receptor 1, junctin, FKBP12, sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 1, parvalbumin, myosin light chain kinase, and actomyosin adenosine triphosphatase content were not modified. After short-term resistance training, the twitch contraction time and twitch:tetanus force ratio of FR MUs are decreased, and PTP ability is not changed. However, PTP capacity is increased in response to submaximal activation. In FF MUs increase in PTP ability coexists with lesser fatigability. Further work is required to find out if the increase in triadin concentration has any impact on the observed contractile response.

Abstract
In skeletal muscle, proteins of the calcium release complex responsible for the excitation-contraction (EC) coupling are exclusively localized in specific reticulum–plasma membrane (ER-PM) contact points named triads. The CRC protein triadin (T95) is localized in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) subdomain of triads where it forms large multimers. However, the mechanisms leading to the steady-state accumulation of T95 in these specific areas of SR are largely unknown. To visualize T95 dynamics, fluorescent chimeras were expressed in triadin knockout myotubes, and their mobility was compared with the mobility of Sec61β, a membrane protein of the SR unrelated to the EC coupling process. At all stages of skeletal muscle cells differentiation, we show a permanent flux of T95 diffusing in the SR membrane. Moreover, we find evidence that a longer residence time in the ER-PM contact point is due to the transmembrane domain of T95 resulting in an overall triad localization.

Abstract
Muscle contraction upon nerve stimulation relies on excitation-contraction coupling (ECC) to promote the rapid and generalized release of calcium within myofibers. In skeletal muscle, ECC is performed by the direct coupling of a voltage-gated L-type Ca2+ channel (dihydropyridine receptor; DHPR) located on the T-tubule with a Ca2+ release channel (ryanodine receptor; RYR1) on the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) component of the triad. Here, we characterize a novel class of congenital myopathy at the morphological, molecular, and functional levels. We describe a cohort of 11 patients from 7 families presenting with perinatal hypotonia, severe axial and generalized weakness. Ophthalmoplegia is present in four patients. The analysis of muscle biopsies demonstrated a characteristic intermyofibrillar network due to SR dilatation, internal nuclei, and areas of myofibrillar disorganization in some samples. Exome sequencing revealed ten recessive or dominant mutations in CACNA1S (Cav1.1), the pore-forming subunit of DHPR in skeletal muscle. Both recessive and dominant mutations correlated with a consistent phenotype, a decrease in protein level, and with a major impairment of Ca2+ release induced by depolarization in cultured myotubes. While dominant CACNA1S mutations were previously linked to malignant hyperthermia susceptibility or hypokalemic periodic paralysis, our findings strengthen the importance of DHPR for perinatal muscle function in human. These data also highlight CACNA1S and ECC as therapeutic targets for the development of treatments that may be facilitated by the previous knowledge accumulated on DHPR.

Abstract
Opisthorchiasis secondary to Opisthorchis viverrini infection leads to cholangiocellular carcinoma through chronic inflammation of the bile ducts and possibly inducing autoimmunity. It was hypothesized that plasma autoantibodies directed against self-proteins are biomarkers for opisthorchiasis. Plasma from patients with opisthorchiasis was tested using proteins derived from immortalized cholangiocyte cell lines, and spots reacting with plasma were excised and subjected to LC-MS/MS. Seven protein spots were recognized by IgG autoantibodies, and the highest matching scored protein was actin-related protein 3 (ARP3). The antibody against ARP3 was tested in plasma from 55 O. viverrini-infected patients, 24 patients with others endemic parasitic infections and 17 healthy controls using Western blot and ELISA. Immunoreactivity against recombinant ARP3 was significantly more prevalent in opisthorchiasis compared to healthy controls at Western blotting and ELISA (P < 0.05). Plasma ARP3 autoantibody titres were also higher in opisthorchiasis compared to healthy individuals (P < 0.01) and other parasitic infections including Strongyloides stercoralis (P < 0.001), echinostome (P < 0.05), hookworms (P < 0.001) and Taenia spp. (P < 0.05). It was further characterized in that the ARP3 autoantibody titre had a sensitivity of 78.18% and specificity of 100% for opisthorchiasis. In conclusion, it may be suggested that plasma anti-ARP3 might represent a new diagnostic antibody for opisthorchiasis.

Abstract
Background: Central Core Disease (CCD) is a congenital myopathy often resulting from a mutation in RYR1 gene. Mutations in RyR1 can increase or decrease channel activity, or induce a reduction in the amount of protein. The consequences of a single mutation are sometimes multiple and the analysis of the functional effects is complex. Objective: The consequences of the p.Y4864H mutation identified in a CCD patient have been studied regarding both RyR1 function and amount. Methods: The amount of RyR1 in human and mouse muscles was evaluated using qRT-PCR and quantitative Western blot, and calcium release was studied using calcium imaging on primary cultures. The results were compared between human and mouse. Results: The p.Y4864H mutation induced an alteration of calcium release, and in addition was associated to a reduction in the amount of RyR1 in the patient’s muscle. This suggests two possible pathophysiological mechanisms: the alteration of calcium release could result from a modification of the channel properties of RyR1 or from a RyR1 reduction. In order to discriminate between the two hypotheses, we used the heterozygous RyR1 knockout (RyR1+/–) mouse model showing a comparable RyR1 protein reduction. No reduction in calcium release was observed in primary muscle culture from these mice, and no muscle weakness was measured. Conclusions: Because the reduction in the amount of RyR1 protein has no functional consequences in the murine model, the muscle weakness observed in the patient is most likely the result of a modification of the calcium channel function of RyR1 due to the p.Y4864H mutation.

Abstract
Background Skeletal muscle function depends on calcium signaling proteins in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), including the calcium-binding protein calsequestrin (CSQ), the ryanodine receptor (RyR) calcium release channel, and skeletal triadin 95 kDa (trisk95) and junctin, proteins that bind to calsequestrin type 1 (CSQ1) and ryanodine receptor type 1 (RyR1). CSQ1 inhibits RyR1 and communicates store calcium load to RyR1 channels via trisk95 and/or junctin. Methods In this manuscript, we test predictions that CSQ1’s acidic C-terminus contains binding sites for trisk95 and junctin, the major calcium binding domain, and that it determines CSQ1’s ability to regulate RyR1 activity. Results Progressive alanine substitution of C-terminal acidic residues of CSQ1 caused a parallel reduction in the calcium binding capacity but did not significantly alter CSQ1’s association with trisk95/junctin or influence its inhibition of RyR1 activity. Deletion of the final seven residues in the C-terminus significantly hampered calcium binding, significantly reduced CSQ’s association with trisk95/junctin and decreased its inhibition of RyR1. Deletion of the full C-terminus further reduced calcium binding to CSQ1 altered its association with trisk95 and junctin and abolished its inhibition of RyR1. Conclusions The correlation between the number of residues mutated/deleted and binding of calcium, trisk95, and junctin suggests that binding of each depends on diffuse ionic interactions with several C-terminal residues and that these interactions may be required for CSQ1 to maintain normal muscle function.

Abstract
Central core disease is a myopathy often arising from mutations in the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RYR1) gene, encoding the sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release channel RyR1. No treatment is currently available for this disease. We studied the pathological situation of a severely affected child with two recessive mutations, which resulted in a massive reduction in the amount of RyR1. The paternal mutation induced the inclusion of a new in-frame pseudo-exon in RyR1 mRNA that resulted in the insertion of additional amino acids leading to the instability of the protein. We hypothesized that skipping this additional exon would be sufficient to restore RyR1 expression and to normalize calcium releases. We therefore developed U7-AON lentiviral vectors to force exon skipping on affected primary muscle cells. The efficiency of the exon skipping was evaluated at the mRNA level, at the protein level, and at the functional level using calcium imaging. In these affected cells, we observed a decreased inclusion of the pseudo-exon, an increased RyR1 protein expression, and a restoration of calcium releases of normal amplitude either upon direct RyR1 stimulation or in response to membrane depolarization. This study is the first demonstration of the potential of exon-skipping strategy for the therapy of central core disease, from the molecular to the functional level.

Abstract
The terminal cisternae represent one of the functional domains of the skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). They are closely apposed to plasma membrane invaginations, the T-tubules, with which they form structures called triads. In triads, the physical interaction between the T-tubule-anchored voltage-sensing channel DHPR and the SR calcium channel RyR1 is essential because it allows the depolarization-induced calcium release that triggers muscle contraction. This interaction between DHPR and RyR1 is based on the peculiar membrane structures of both T-tubules and SR terminal cisternae. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms governing the formation of SR terminal cisternae. We have previously shown that ablation of triadins, a family of SR transmembrane proteins that interact with RyR1, induced skeletal muscle weakness in knockout mice as well as a modification of the shape of triads. Here we explore the intrinsic molecular properties of the longest triadin isoform Trisk 95. We show that when ectopically expressed, Trisk 95 can modulate reticulum membrane morphology. The membrane deformations induced by Trisk 95 are accompanied by modifications of the microtubule network organization. We show that multimerization of Trisk 95 by disulfide bridges, together with interaction with microtubules, are responsible for the ability of Trisk 95 to structure reticulum membrane. When domains responsible for these molecular properties are deleted, anchoring of Trisk 95 to the triads in muscle cells is strongly decreased, suggesting that oligomers of Trisk 95 and microtubules contribute to the organization of the SR terminal cisternae in a triad.

To determine whether such changes are directly caused by CASQ1 ablation or are instead the result of adaptive mechanisms, here we assessed ability of CASQ1 in rescuing the null phenotype. In vivo reintroduction of CASQ1 was carried out by cDNA electro transfer in flexor digitorum brevis muscle of the mouse. Exogenous CASQ1 was found to be correctly targeted to the junctional SR (jSR), as judged by immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy; terminal cisternae (TC) lumen was filled with electron dense material and its width was significantly increased, as judged by electron microscopy; peak amplitude of Ca(2+) transients was significantly increased compared with null muscle fibers transfected only with green fluorescent protein (control); and finally, transfected fibers were able to sustain cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration during prolonged tetanic stimulation. Only the expression of TC proteins, such as calsequestrin 2, sarcalumenin, and triadin, was not rescued as judged by Western blot. Thus our results support the view that CASQ1 plays a key role in both Ca(2+) homeostasis and TC structure.

Abstract
Calcium is a crucial element for striated muscle function. As such, myoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration is delicately regulated through the concerted action of multiple Ca2+ pathways that relay excitation of the plasma membrane to the intracellular contractile machinery. In skeletal muscle, one of these major Ca2+ pathways is Ca2+ release from intracellular Ca2+ stores through type-1 ryanodine receptor/Ca2+ release channels (RyR1), which positions RyR1 in a strategic cross point to regulate Ca2+ homeostasis. This major Ca2+ traffic point appears to be highly sensitive to the intracellular environment, which senses through a plethora of chemical and protein-protein interactions. Among these modulators, perhaps one of the most elusive is Triadin, a muscle-specific protein that is involved in many crucial aspect of muscle function. This family of proteins mediates complex interactions with various Ca2+ modulators and seems poised to be a relevant modulator of Ca2+ signaling in cardiac and skeletal muscles. The purpose of this review is to examine the most recent evidence and current understanding of the role of Triadin in muscle function, in general, with particular emphasis on its contribution to Ca2+ homeostasis.

Trisk 32 regulates IP(3) receptors in rat skeletal myoblasts. Pflugers Arch 2011; 462:599-610. [PMID: 21811790 DOI: 10.1007/s00424-011-1001-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2011] [Revised: 07/19/2011] [Accepted: 07/20/2011] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
To date, four isoforms of triadins have been identified in rat skeletal muscle. While the function of the 95-kDa isoform in excitation-contraction coupling has been studied in detail, the role of the 32-kDa isoform (Trisk 32) remains elusive. Here, Trisk 32 overexpression was carried out by stable transfection in L6.G8 myoblasts. Co-localization of Trisk 32 and IP(3) receptors (IP(3)R) was demonstrated by immunocytochemistry, and their association was shown by co-immunoprecipitation. Functional effects of Trisk 32 on IP(3)-mediated Ca(2+) release were assessed by measuring changes in [Ca(2+)](i) following the stimulation by bradykinin or vasopressin. The amplitude of the Ca(2+) transients evoked by 20 μM bradykinin was significantly higher in Trisk 32-overexpressing (p < 0.01; 426 ± 84 nM, n = 27) as compared to control cells (76 ± 12 nM, n = 23). The difference remained significant (p < 0.02; 217 ± 41 nM, n = 21, and 97 ± 29 nM, n = 31, respectively) in the absence of extracellular Ca(2+). Similar observations were made when 0.1 μM vasopressin was used to initiate Ca(2+) release. Possible involvement of the ryanodine receptors (RyR) in these processes was excluded, after functional and biochemical experiments. Furthermore, Trisk 32 overexpression had no effect on store-operated Ca(2+) entry, despite a decrease in the expression of STIM1. These results suggest that neither the increased activity of RyR, nor the amplification of SOCE, is responsible for the differences observed in bradykinin- or vasopressin-evoked Ca(2+) transients; rather, they were due to the enhanced activity of IP(3)R. Thus, Trisk 32 not only co-localizes with, but directly contributes to, the regulation of Ca(2+) release via IP(3)R.

Reduced gain of excitation-contraction coupling in triadin-null myotubes is mediated by the disruption of FKBP12/RyR1 interaction. Cell Calcium 2011; 49:128-35. [PMID: 21310482 DOI: 10.1016/j.ceca.2011.01.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2010] [Revised: 01/10/2011] [Accepted: 01/12/2011] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
Several studies have suggested that triadin (Tdn) may be a critical component of skeletal EC-coupling. However, using Tdn-null mice we have shown that triadin ablation results in no significant disruption of skeletal EC-coupling. To analyze the role of triadin in EC-coupling signaling here we used whole-cell voltage clamp and simultaneous recording of intracellular Ca²+ release to characterize the retrograde and orthograde signaling between RyR1 and DHPR in cultured myotubes. DHPR Ca²+ currents elicited by depolarization of Wt and Tdn-null myotubes displayed similar current densities and voltage dependence. However, kinetic analysis of the Ca²+ current shows that activation time constant of the slow component was slightly decreased in Tdn-null cells. Voltage-evoked Ca²+ transient of Tdn-null myotubes showed small but significant reduction in peak fluorescence amplitude but no differences in voltage dependence. This difference in Ca²+ amplitude was averted by over-expression of FKBP12.6. Our results show that bi-directional signaling between DHPR and RyR1 is preserved nearly intact in Tdn-null myotubes and that the effect of triadin ablation on Ca²+ transients appears to be secondary to the reduced FKBP12 binding capacity of RyR1 in Tdn-null myotubes. These data suggest that skeletal triadins do not play a direct role in skeletal EC-coupling.

Abstract
Previously, we have shown that lack of expression of triadins in skeletal muscle cells results in significant increase of myoplasmic resting free Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](rest)), suggesting a role for triadins in modulating global intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis. To understand this mechanism, we study here how triadin alters [Ca(2+)](rest), Ca(2+) release, and Ca(2+) entry pathways using a combination of Ca(2+) microelectrodes, channels reconstituted in bilayer lipid membranes (BLM), Ca(2+), and Mn(2+) imaging analyses of myotubes and RyR1 channels obtained from triadin-null mice. Unlike WT cells, triadin-null myotubes had chronically elevated [Ca(2+)](rest) that was sensitive to inhibition with ryanodine, suggesting that triadin-null cells have increased basal RyR1 activity. Consistently, BLM studies indicate that, unlike WT-RyR1, triadin-null channels more frequently display atypical gating behavior with multiple and stable subconductance states. Accordingly, pulldown analysis and fluorescent FKBP12 binding studies in triadin-null muscles revealed a significant impairment of the FKBP12/RyR1 interaction. Mn(2+) quench rates under resting conditions indicate that triadin-null cells also have higher Ca(2+) entry rates and lower sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) load than WT cells. Overexpression of FKBP12.6 reverted the null phenotype, reducing resting Ca(2+) entry, recovering sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) content levels, and restoring near normal [Ca(2+)](rest). Exogenous FKBP12.6 also reduced the RyR1 channel P(o) but did not rescue subconductance behavior. In contrast, FKBP12 neither reduced P(o) nor recovered multiple subconductance gating. These data suggest that elevated [Ca(2+)](rest) in triadin-null myotubes is primarily driven by dysregulated RyR1 channel activity that results in part from impaired FKBP12/RyR1 functional interactions and a secondary increased Ca(2+) entry at rest.

Abstract
The triadin isoforms Trisk 95 and Trisk 51 are both components of the skeletal muscle calcium release complex. To investigate the specific role of Trisk 95 and Trisk 51 isoforms in muscle physiology, we overexpressed Trisk 95 or Trisk 51 using adenovirus-mediated gene transfer in skeletal muscle of newborn mice. Overexpression of either Trisk 95 or Trisk 51 alters the muscle fiber morphology, while leaving unchanged the expression of the ryanodine receptor, the dihydropyridine receptor, and calsequestrin. We also observe an aberrant expression of caveolin 3 in both Trisk 95- and Trisk 51-overexpressing skeletal muscles. Using a biochemical approach, we demonstrate that caveolin 3 is associated with the calcium release complex in skeletal muscle. Taking advantage of muscle and non-muscle cell culture models and triadin null mouse skeletal muscle, we further dissect the molecular organization of the caveolin 3-containing calcium release complex. Our data demonstrate that the association of caveolin 3 with the calcium release complex occurs via a direct interaction with the transmembrane domain of the ryanodine receptor. Taken together, these data suggest that caveolin 3-containing membrane domains and the calcium release complex are functionally linked and that Trisk 95 and Trisk 51 are instrumental to the regulation of this interaction, the integrity of which may be crucial for muscle physiology.

Abstract
Triadin is a multiple proteins family, some isoforms being involved in muscle excitation-contraction coupling, and some having still unknown functions. To obtain clues on triadin functions, we engineered a triadin knock-out mouse line and characterized the physiological effect of triadin ablation on skeletal muscle function. These mice presented a reduced muscle strength, which seemed not to alter their survival and has been characterized in the present work. We first checked in these mice the expression level of the different proteins involved in calcium homeostasis and observed in fast muscles an increase in expression of dihydropyridine receptor, with a large reduction in calsequestrin expression. Electron microscopy analysis of KO muscles morphology demonstrated the presence of triads in abnormal orientation and a reduction in the sarcoplasmic reticulum terminal cisternae volume. Using calcium imaging on cultured myotubes, we observed a reduction in the total amount of calcium stored in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Physiological studies have been performed to evaluate the influence of triadin deletion on skeletal muscle function. Muscle strength has been measured both on the whole animal model, using hang test or electrical stimulation combined with NMR analysis and strength measurement, or on isolated muscle using electrical stimulation. All the results obtained demonstrate an important reduction in muscle strength, indicating that triadin plays an essential role in skeletal muscle function and in skeletal muscle structure. These results indicate that triadin alteration leads to the development of a myopathy, which could be studied using this new animal model.

Abstract
This review focuses on molecular interactions between calsequestrin, triadin, junctin and the ryanodine receptor in the lumen of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. These interactions modulate changes in Ca(2+) release in response to changes in the Ca(2+) load within the sarcoplasmic reticulum store in striated muscle and are of fundamental importance to Ca(2+) homeostasis, since massive adaptive changes occur when expression of the proteins is manipulated, while mutations in calsequestrin lead to functional changes which can be fatal. We find that calsequestrin plays a different role in the heart and skeletal muscle, enhancing Ca(2+) release in the heart, but depressing Ca(2+) release in skeletal muscle. We also find that triadin and junctin exert independent influences on the ryanodine receptor in skeletal muscle where triadin alone modifies excitation-contraction coupling, while junctin alone supports functional interactions between calsequestrin and the ryanodine receptor.

Abstract
Normal Ca(2+) signalling in skeletal muscle depends on the membrane associated proteins triadin and junctin and their ability to mediate functional interactions between the Ca(2+) binding protein calsequestrin and the type 1 ryanodine receptor in the lumen of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. This important mechanism conserves intracellular Ca(2+) stores, but is poorly understood. Triadin and junctin share similar structures and are lumped together in models of interactions between skeletal muscle calsequestrin and ryanodine receptors, however their individual roles have not been examined at a molecular level. We show here that purified skeletal ryanodine receptors are similarly activated by purified triadin or purified junctin added to their luminal side, although a lack of competition indicated that the proteins act at independent sites. Surprisingly, triadin and junctin differed markedly in their ability to transmit information between skeletal calsequestrin and ryanodine receptors. Purified calsequestrin inhibited junctin/triadin-associated, or junctin-associated, ryanodine receptors and the calsequestrin re-associated channel complexes were further inhibited when luminal Ca(2+) fell from 1mM to <or=100 microM, as seen with native channels (containing endogenous calsequestrin/triadin/junctin). In contrast, skeletal calsequestrin had no effect on the triadin/ryanodine receptor complex and the channel activity of this complex increased when luminal Ca(2+) fell, as seen with purified channels prior to triadin/calsequestrin re-association. Therefore in this cell free system, junctin alone mediates signals between luminal Ca(2+), skeletal calsequestrin and skeletal ryanodine receptors and may curtail resting Ca(2+) leak from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. We suggest that triadin serves a different function which may dominate during excitation-contraction coupling.

Abstract
During the last 20 years, the identification of triadin function in cardiac and skeletal muscle has been the focus of numerous studies. First thought of as the missing link between the ryanodine receptor and the dihydropyridine receptor and responsible of skeletal type excitation-contraction coupling, the current hypothesis on triadin function has slowly evolved, and triadin is envisaged now as a regulator of calcium release, both in cardiac and skeletal muscle. Nevertheless, none of the experiments performed up to now has given a clear cut view of what triadin really does in muscle. The problem became more complex with the identification of multiple triadin isoforms, having possibly multiple functions. Using a different approach from what has been done previously, we have obtained new clues about the function of triadin. Our data point to a possible involvement of triadin in reticulum structure, in relation with the microtubule network.

Abstract
The 95 kDa triadin (Trisk 95), an integral protein of the sarcoplasmic reticular membrane in skeletal muscle, interacts with both the ryanodine receptor (RyR) and calsequestrin. While its role in the regulation of calcium homeostasis has been extensively studied, data are not available on whether the overexpression or the interference with the expression of Trisk 95 would affect calcium sparks the localized events of calcium release (LCRE). In the present study LCRE and calcium transients were studied using laser scanning confocal microscopy on C2C12 cells and on primary cultures of skeletal muscle. Liposome- or adenovirus-mediated Trisk 95 overexpression and shRNA interference with triadin translation were used to modify the level of the protein. Stable overexpression in C2C12 cells significantly decreased the amplitude and frequency of calcium sparks, and the frequency of embers. In line with these observations, depolarization-evoked calcium transients were also suppressed. Similarly, adenoviral transfection of Trisk 95 into cultured mouse skeletal muscle cells significantly decreased both the frequency and amplitude of spontaneous global calcium transients. Inhibition of endogenous triadin expression by RNA interference caused opposite effects. Primary cultures of rat skeletal muscle cells expressing endogenous Trisk 95 readily generated spontaneous calcium transients but rarely produced calcium sparks. Their transfection with specific shRNA sequence significantly reduced the triadin-specific immunoreactivity. Functional experiments on these cells revealed that while caffeine-evoked calcium transients were reduced, LCRE appeared with higher frequency. These results suggest that Trisk 95 negatively regulates RyR function by suppressing localized calcium release events and global calcium signals in cultured muscle cells.

Abstract
Triadin and junctin are integral sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane proteins that form a macromolecular complex with the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RyR1) but their roles in skeletal muscle calcium homeostasis remain incompletely understood. Here we report that delivery of siRNAs specific for triadin or junctin into C2C12 skeletal myoblasts reduced the expression of triadin and junctin in 8-day-old myotubes by 80 and 100%, respectively. Knocking down either triadin or junctin in these cells reduced Ca2+ release induced by depolarization (10mM KCl) by 20-25%. Unlike triadin knockdown myotubes, junctin knockdown and junctin/triadin double knockdown myotubes also had reduced Ca2+ release induced by 400 microM 4-chloro-m-cresol, 10mM caffeine, 400 microM UTP, or 1 microM thapsigargin. Thus, knocking down junctin compromised the Ca2+ stores in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of these cells. Our subsequent studies showed that in junctin knockdown myotubes at least two sarcoplasmic reticulum proteins (RyR1 and skeletal muscle calsequestrin) were down-regulated while these proteins' mRNA expression was not affected. The results suggest that triadin has a role in facilitating KCl depolarization-induced Ca2+ release in contrast to junctin which has a role in maintaining sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ store size in C2C12 myotubes.

Abstract
To unmask the role of triadin in skeletal muscle we engineered pan-triadin-null mice by removing the first exon of the triadin gene. This resulted in a total lack of triadin expression in both skeletal and cardiac muscle. Triadin knockout was not embryonic or birth-lethal, and null mice presented no obvious functional phenotype. Western blot analysis of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) proteins in skeletal muscle showed that the absence of triadin expression was associated with down-regulation of Junctophilin-1, junctin, and calsequestrin but resulted in no obvious contractile dysfunction. Ca(2+) imaging studies in null lumbricalis muscles and myotubes showed that the lack of triadin did not prevent skeletal excitation-contraction coupling but reduced the amplitude of their Ca(2+) transients. Additionally, null myotubes and adult fibers had significantly increased myoplasmic resting free Ca(2+).[(3)H]Ryanodine binding studies of skeletal muscle SR vesicles detected no differences in Ca(2+) activation or Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) inhibition between wild-type and triadin-null animals. Subtle ultrastructural changes, evidenced by the appearance of longitudinally oriented triads and the presence of calsequestrin in the sacs of the longitudinal SR, were present in fast but not slow twitch-null muscles. Overall, our data support an indirect role for triadin in regulating myoplasmic Ca(2+) homeostasis and organizing the molecular complex of the triad but not in regulating skeletal-type excitation-contraction coupling.

Abstract
Ca2+ release from intracellular stores is controlled by complex interactions between multiple proteins. Triadin is a transmembrane glycoprotein of the junctional sarcoplasmic reticulum of striated muscle that interacts with both calsequestrin and the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1) to communicate changes in luminal Ca2+ to the release machinery. However, the potential impact of the triadin association with RyR1 in skeletal muscle excitation–contraction coupling remains elusive. Here we show that triadin binding to RyR1 is critically important for rapid Ca2+ release during excitation–contraction coupling. To assess the functional impact of the triadin-RyR1 interaction, we expressed RyR1 mutants in which one or more of three negatively charged residues (D4878, D4907, and E4908) in the terminal RyR1 intraluminal loop were mutated to alanines in RyR1-null (dyspedic) myotubes. Coimmunoprecipitation revealed that triadin, but not junctin, binding to RyR1 was abolished in the triple (D4878A/D4907A/E4908A) mutant and one of the double (D4907A/E4908A) mutants, partially reduced in the D4878A/D4907A double mutant, but not affected by either individual (D4878A, D4907A, E4908A) mutations or the D4878A/E4908A double mutation. Functional studies revealed that the rate of voltage- and ligand-gated SR Ca2+ release were reduced in proportion to the degree of interruption in triadin binding. Ryanodine binding, single channel recording, and calcium release experiments conducted on WT and triple mutant channels in the absence of triadin demonstrated that the luminal loop mutations do not directly alter RyR1 function. These findings demonstrate that junctin and triadin bind to different sites on RyR1 and that triadin plays an important role in ensuring rapid Ca2+ release during excitation–contraction coupling in skeletal muscle.

Abstract
The activation and function of Ca(2+)-calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII) in contracting rat skeletal muscle was examined. The increase in autonomous activity and phosphorylation at Thr(287) of CaMKII of gastrocnemius muscle in response to contractions in situ was rapid and transient, peaking at 1-3 min, but reversed after 30 min of contractions. There was a positive correlation between CaMKII phosphorylation at Thr(287) and autonomous CaMKII activity. In contrast to the rapid and transient increase in autonomous CaMKII activity, the phosphorylation of the putative CaMKII substrate trisk95/triadin was rapid and sustained during contractions. There were no changes in CaMKII activity and phosphorylation or trisk95 phosphorylation in the resting contralateral muscles during stimulation. When fast-twitch muscles were contracted ex vivo, CaMKII inhibition resulted in a greater magnitude of fatigue as well as blunted CaMKII and trisk95 phosphorylation, identifying trisk95 as a physiological CaMKII substrate. In summary, skeletal muscle CaMKII activation was rapid and sustained during exercise/contraction and is mediated by factors within the contracting muscle, probably through allosteric activation via Ca(2+)-CaM. CaMKII may signal through trisk95 to modulate Ca(2+) release in fast-twitch rat skeletal muscle during exercise/contraction.

Abstract
The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) plays a critical role in excitation-contraction coupling by regulating the cytoplasmic calcium concentration of striated muscle. The histidine-rich calcium-binding protein (HRCBP) is expressed in the junctional SR, the site of calcium release from the SR. HRCBP is expressed exclusively in muscle tissues and binds calcium with low affinity and high capacity. In addition, HRCBP interacts with triadin, a protein associated with the ryanodine receptor and thought to be involved in calcium release. Its calcium binding properties, localization to the SR, and interaction with triadin suggest that HRCBP is involved in calcium handling by the SR. To determine the function of HRCBP in vivo, we inactivated HRC, the gene encoding HRCBP, in mice. HRC knockout mice exhibited impaired weight gain beginning at 11 months of age, which was marked by reduced skeletal muscle and fat mass, and triadin protein expression was upregulated in the heart of HRC knockout mice. In addition, HRC null mice displayed a significantly exaggerated response to the induction of cardiac hypertrophy by isoproterenol compared to their wild-type littermates. The exaggerated response of HRC knockout mice to the induction of cardiac hypertrophy is consistent with a regulatory role for HRCBP in calcium handling in vivo and suggests that mutations in HRC, in combination with other genetic or environmental factors, might contribute to pathological hypertrophy and heart failure.

Abstract
The 95kDa triadin (or T95), the main skeletal muscle triadin isoform, negatively regulates the mechanism of excitation-contraction coupling. T95 is a ryanodine receptor (RyR)-interacting protein but it also possesses a calsequestrin-interacting domain. RyR and calsequestrin are involved in Ca2+ signalling and, for instance, influence the activity of store-dependent Ca2+ channels (SOC). This work was undertaken to determine whether T95 was able to modulate the entry of Ca2+ through SOC. The experiments were carried out on differentiated rat myotubes over-expressing T95 or DsRed (control cells) by means of an adenovirus infection. Intracellular Ca2+ signals were analyzed using the Ca2+ indicator Fluo-4. The sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin was used to deplete intracellular Ca2+ stores. When applied in the presence of a Ca2+-free medium, thapsigargin elicited transient but long-lasting Fluo-4 responses by elevating the cytoplasmic concentration of Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i). The over-expression of T95 reduced the thapsigargin-dependent [Ca2+]i increase, with respect to control myotubes. Addition of extracellular Ca2+after the depletion of this Ca2+ pool was accompanied by a [Ca2+]i increase that was sensitive to the SOC blockers 2-APB, SKF-96365 and La3+. The over-expression of T95 reduced this Ca2+ influx, without changing its pharmacological properties, showing that T95 over-expression did not alter the properties of the SOC. In conclusion, the RyR-interacting molecule T95, recently shown to inhibit the excitation-contraction coupling, has also the ability to interfere with the skeletal muscle Ca2+ signalling by depressing thapsigargin-dependent Ca2+ release and influx.

Abstract
We have shown that TRPC3 (transient receptor potential channel canonical type 3) is sharply up-regulated during the early part of myotube differentiation and remains elevated in mature myotubes compared with myoblasts. To examine its functional roles in muscle, TRPC3 was "knocked down" in mouse primary skeletal myoblasts using retroviral-delivered small interference RNAs and single cell cloning. TRPC3 knockdown myoblasts (97.6 +/- 1.9% reduction in mRNA) were differentiated into myotubes (TRPC3 KD) and subjected to functional and biochemical assays. By measuring rates of Mn(2+) influx with Fura-2 and Ca(2+) transients with Fluo-4, we found that neither excitation-coupled Ca(2+) entry nor thapsigargin-induced store-operated Ca(2+) entry was significantly altered in TRPC3 KD, indicating that expression of TRPC3 is not required for engaging either Ca(2+) entry mechanism. In Ca(2+) imaging experiments, the gain of excitation-contraction coupling and the amplitude of the Ca(2+) release seen after direct RyR1 activation with caffeine was significantly reduced in TRPC3 KD. The decreased gain appears to be due to a decrease in RyR1 Ca(2+) release channel activity, because sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) content was not different between TRPC3 KD and wild-type myotubes. Immunoblot analysis demonstrated that TRPC1, calsequestrin, triadin, and junctophilin 1 were up-regulated (1.46 +/- 1.91-, 1.42 +/- 0.08-, 2.99 +/- 0.32-, and 1.91 +/- 0.26-fold, respectively) in TRPC3 KD. Based on these data, we conclude that expression of TRPC3 is tightly regulated during muscle cell differentiation and propose that functional interaction between TRPC3 and RyR1 may regulate the gain of SR Ca(2+) release independent of SR Ca(2+) load.
