Abstract
INTRODUCTION Asthma is a chronic lung disease influenced by environmental and inflammatory triggers and involving complex signaling pathways across resident airway cells such as epithelium, airway smooth muscle, fibroblasts, and immune cells. While our understanding of asthma pathophysiology is continually progressing, there is a growing realization that cellular microdomains play critical roles in mediating signaling relevant to asthma in the context of contractility and remodeling. Mechanosensitive pathways are increasingly recognized as important to microdomain signaling, with Piezo and transient receptor protein (TRP) channels at the plasma membrane considered important for converting mechanical stimuli into cellular behavior. Given their ion channel properties, particularly Ca2+ conduction, a question becomes whether and how mechanosensitive channels contribute to Ca2+ microdomains in airway cells relevant to asthma. AREAS COVERED Mechanosensitive TRP and Piezo channels regulate key Ca2+ regulatory proteins such as store operated calcium entry (SOCE) involving STIM and Orai channels, and sarcoendoplasmic (SR) mechanisms such as IP3 receptor channels (IP3Rs), and SR Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) that are important in asthma pathophysiology including airway hyperreactivity and remodeling. EXPERT OPINION Physical and/or functional interactions between Ca2+ regulatory proteins and mechanosensitive channels such as TRP and Piezo can toward understanding asthma pathophysiology and identifying novel therapeutic approaches.

Cross-Talk between Mechanosensitive Ion Channels and Calcium Regulatory Proteins in Cardiovascular Health and Disease. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22168782.

Abstract
Mechanosensitive ion channels are widely expressed in the cardiovascular system. They translate mechanical forces including shear stress and stretch into biological signals. The most prominent biological signal through which the cardiovascular physiological activity is initiated or maintained are intracellular calcium ions (Ca2+). Growing evidence show that the Ca2+ entry mediated by mechanosensitive ion channels is also precisely regulated by a variety of key proteins which are distributed in the cell membrane or endoplasmic reticulum. Recent studies have revealed that mechanosensitive ion channels can even physically interact with Ca2+ regulatory proteins and these interactions have wide implications for physiology and pathophysiology. Therefore, this paper reviews the cross-talk between mechanosensitive ion channels and some key Ca2+ regulatory proteins in the maintenance of calcium homeostasis and its relevance to cardiovascular health and disease.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels are ubiquitously expressed in excitable and non-excitable cardiac cells where they sense and respond to a wide variety of physical and chemical stimuli. As other TRP channels, TRPC channels may form homo or heterotetrameric ion channels, and they can associate with other membrane receptors and ion channels to regulate intracellular calcium concentration. Dysfunctions of TRPC channels are involved in many types of cardiovascular diseases. Significant increase in the expression of different TRPC isoforms was observed in different animal models of heart infarcts and in vitro experimental models of ischemia and reperfusion. TRPC channel-mediated increase of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration seems to be required for the activation of the signaling pathway that plays minor roles in the healthy heart, but they are more relevant for cardiac responses to ischemia, such as the activation of different factors of transcription and cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, and angiogenesis. In this review, we highlight the current knowledge regarding TRPC implication in different cellular processes related to ischemia and reperfusion and to heart infarction.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels constitute a family of seven Ca2+ permeable ion channels, named TRPC1 to 7. These channels are abundantly expressed in the mammalian heart, yet mechanisms underlying activation of TRPC channels and their precise role in cardiac physiology remain poorly understood. In this review, we perused original literature regarding TRPC channels in cardiomyocytes. We first reviewed studies on TRPC channel assembly and sub-cellular localization across multiple species and cell types. Our review indicates that TRPC localization in cardiac cells is still a topic of controversy. We then examined common molecular biology tools used to infer on location and physiological roles of TRPC channels in the heart. We subsequently reviewed pharmacological tools used to modulate TRPC activity in both cardiac and non-cardiac cells. Suggested physiological roles in the heart include modulation of heart rate and sensing of mechanical strain. We examined studies on the contribution of TRPC to cardiac pathophysiology, mainly hypertrophic signaling. Several TRPC channels, particularly TRPC1, 3 and 6 were proposed to play a crucial role in hypertrophic signaling. Finally, we discussed gaps in our understanding of the location and physiological role of TRPC channels in cardiomyocytes. Closing these gaps will be crucial to gain a full understanding of the role of TRPC channels in cardiac pathophysiology and to further explore these channels as targets for treatments for cardiac diseases, in particular, hypertrophy.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential canonical subfamily, member 7 (TRPC7) is the most recently identified member of the TRPC family of Ca(2+)-permeable non-selective cation channels. The gene encoding the TRPC7 channel plasma membrane protein was first cloned from mouse brain. TRPC7 mRNA and protein have been detected in cell types derived from multiple organ systems from various species including humans. Gq-coupled protein receptor activation is the predominant mode of TRPC7 activation. Lipid metabolites involved in the phospholipase C (PLC) signaling pathway, including diacylglycerol (DAG) and its precursor the phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), have been shown to be direct regulators of TRPC7 channel. TRPC7 channels have been linked to the regulation of various cellular functions however, the depth of our understanding of TRPC7 channel function and regulation is limited in comparison to other TRP channel family members. This review takes a historical look at our current knowledge of TRPC7 mechanisms of activation and its role in cellular physiology and pathophysiology.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential canonical 7 (TRPC7) channel is the seventh member of the mammalian TRPC channel family. TRPC7 mRNA, protein, and channel activity have been detected in many tissues and organs from the mouse, rat, and human. TRPC7 has high sequence homology with TRPC3 and TRPC6, and all three channels are activated by membrane receptors that couple to isoforms of phospholipase C (PLC) and mediate non-selective cation currents. TRPC7, along with TRPC3 and TRPC6, can be activated by direct exogenous application of diacylglycerol (DAG) analogues and by pharmacological maneuvers that increase endogenous DAG in cells. TRPC7 shows distinct properties of activation, such as constitutive activity and susceptibility to negative regulation by extracellular Ca(2+) and by protein kinase C. TRPC7 can form heteromultimers with TRPC3 and TRPC6. Although TRPC7 remains one of the least studied TRPC channel, its role in various cell types and physiological and pathophysiological conditions is beginning to emerge.

Abstract
TNF-α-NF-κB signaling plays a central role in inflammation, apoptosis, and neoplasia. One major consequence of this signaling in the gut is increased production of prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) via cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) induction in myofibroblasts, which has been reported to be dependent on Ca(2+). In this study, we explored a potential role of canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) proteins in this Ca(2+)-mediated signaling using a human colonic myofibroblast cell line CCD-18Co. In CCD-18Co cell, treatment with TNF-α greatly enhanced Ca(2+) influx induced by store depletion along with increased cell-surface expression of TRPC1 protein (but not of the other TRPC isoforms) and induction of a Gd(3+)-sensitive nonselective cationic conductance. Selective inhibition of TRPC1 expression by small interfering RNA (siRNA) or functionally effective TRPC1 antibody targeting the near-pore region of TRPC1 (T1E3) antagonized the enhancement of store-dependent Ca(2+) influx by TNF-α, whereas potentiated TNF-α induced PGE(2) production. Overexpression of TRPC1 in CCD-18Co produced opposite consequences. Inhibitors of NF-κB (curcumin, SN-50) attenuated TNF-α-induced enhancement of TRPC1 expression, store-dependent Ca(2+) influx, and COX-2-dependent PGE(2) production. In contrast, inhibition of calcineurin-nuclear factor of activated T-cell proteins (NFAT) signaling by FK506 or NFAT Activation Inhibitor III enhanced the PGE(2) production without affecting TRPC1 expression and the Ca(2+) influx. Finally, the suppression of store-dependent Ca(2+) influx by T1E3 antibody or siRNA knockdown significantly facilitated TNF-α-induced NF-κB nuclear translocation. In aggregate, these results strongly suggest that, in colonic myofibroblasts, NF-κB and NFAT serve as important positive and negative transcriptional regulators of TNF-α-induced COX-2-dependent PGE(2) production, respectively, at the downstream of TRPC1-associated Ca(2+) influx.

Abstract
Store-operated calcium entry is a process by which the depletion of calcium from the endoplasmic reticulum activates calcium influx across the plasma membrane. In the past few years, the major players in this pathway have been identified. STIM1 and STIM2 function as calcium sensors in the endoplasmic reticulum and can interact with and activate plasma membrane channels comprised of Orai1, Orai2, or Orai3 subunits. This review discusses recent advances in our understanding of this widespread signaling mechanism as well as the mechanisms by which a number of interesting pharmacological agents modify it.

Abstract
Excessive glucose concentrations foster glycation and thus premature aging of erythrocytes. The present study explored whether glycation-induced erythrocyte aging is paralleled by features of suicidal erythrocyte death or eryptosis, which is characterized by cell membrane scrambling with subsequent phosphatidylserine exposure at the cell surface and cell shrinkage. Both are triggered by increases of cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)), which may result from activation of Ca(2+) permeable cation channels. Glycation was accomplished by exposure to high glucose concentrations (40 and 100 mM), phosphatidylserine exposure estimated from annexin binding, cell shrinkage from decrease of forward scatter, and [Ca(2+)](i) from Fluo3-fluorescence in analysis via fluorescence-activated cell sorter. Cation channel activity was determined by means of whole-cell patch clamp. Glycation of total membrane proteins, immunoprecipitated TRPC3/6/7, and immunoprecipitated L-type Ca(2+) channel proteins was estimated by Western blot testing with polyclonal antibodies used against advanced glycation end products. A 30-48-h exposure of the cells to 40 or 100 mM glucose in Ringer solution (at 37 degrees C) significantly increased glycation of membrane proteins, hemoglobin (HbA(1c)), TRPC3/6/7, and L-type Ca(2+) channel proteins, enhanced amiloride-sensitive, voltage-independent cation conductance, [Ca(2+)](i), and phosphatidylserine exposure, and led to significant cell shrinkage. Ca(2+) removal and addition of Ca(2+) chelator EGTA prevented the glycation-induced phosphatidylserine exposure and cell shrinkage after glycation. Glycation-induced erythrocyte aging leads to eryptosis, an effect requiring Ca(2+) entry from extracellular space.

Abstract
Calcium influx activates biosynthesis of the endogenous cannabinoids 2-arachidonyl glycerol (2-AG) and anandamide (AEA). The calcium channel involved with endocannabinoid synthesis and release in neurons is still unknown. The canonical TRP (TRPC) channels are calcium-permeable channels that are a homology-based subdivision of the broader class of TRP channels. TRPC3, 6, and 7 are G-protein-gated non-selective cation channels that have been localized to lipid rafts and shown to colocalize with caveolin 1. Because endocannabinoid synthesis has been found to occur "on demand" in a calcium-dependent manner and has been linked to lipid rafts, we explored the potential role of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels in this process. Previously, we observed that after metabolism AEA and arachidonic acid (ArA) can be recycled into new endocannabinoid molecules. Consistent with these previous findings, we found that Cath.a differentiated (CAD) cells pretreated with radiolabeled ArA exhibited a robust increase in 2-AG release in response to TRPC stimulation with the diacylglycerol (DAG) analogue, 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (OAG). Furthermore, cells pretreated with [(3)H]AEA produced a significant amount of AEA and 2-AG upon stimulation of TRPC channels. This process was not mediated through protein kinase C activation. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis revealed that only TRPC6 was present in the CAD cells. siRNA-induced knockdown of TRPC6 in the CAD cells abolished OAG-stimulated production of the endocannabionids. This evidence suggests that TRPC6 may be capable of promoting endocannabinoid synthesis in neuronal cells.

Abstract
Recent studies have defined roles for STIM1 and Orai1 as calcium sensor and calcium channel, respectively, for Ca(2+)-release activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels, channels underlying store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE). In addition, these proteins have been suggested to function in signalling and constructing other channels with biophysical properties distinct from the CRAC channels. Using the human kidney cell line, HEK293, we examined the hypothesis that STIM1 can interact with and regulate members of a family of non-selective cation channels (TRPC) which have been suggested to also function in SOCE pathways under certain conditions. Our data reveal no role for either STIM1 or Orai1 in signalling of TRPC channels. Specifically, Ca(2+) entry seen after carbachol treatment in cells transiently expressing TRPC1, TRPC3, TRPC5 or TRPC6 was not enhanced by the co-expression of STIM1. Further, knockdown of STIM1 in cells expressing TRPC5 did not reduce TRPC5 activity, in contrast to one published report. We previously reported in stable TRPC7 cells a Ca(2+) entry which was dependent on TRPC7 and appeared store-operated. However, we show here that this TRPC7-mediated entry was also not dependent on either STIM1 or Orai1, as determined by RNA interference (RNAi) and expression of a constitutively active mutant of STIM1. Further, we determined that this entry was not actually store-operated, but instead TRPC7 activity which appears to be regulated by SERCA. Importantly, endogenous TRPC activity was also not regulated by STIM1. In vascular smooth muscle cells, arginine-vasopressin (AVP) activated non-selective cation currents associated with TRPC6 activity were not affected by RNAi knockdown of STIM1, while SOCE was largely inhibited. Finally, disruption of lipid rafts significantly attenuated TRPC3 activity, while having no effect on STIM1 localization or the development of I(CRAC). Also, STIM1 punctae were found to localize in regions distinct from lipid rafts. This suggests that TRPC signalling and STIM1/Orai1 signalling occur in distinct plasma membrane domains. Thus, TRPC channels appear to be activated by mechanisms dependent on phospholipase C which do not involve the Ca(2+) sensor, STIM1.

Abstract
The transient receptor potential (TRP) family of ion channels comprises more than 50 cation-permeable channels expressed throughout the animal kingdom. TRPs can be grouped into 7 main subfamilies according to structural homology: the TRPC (canonical), TRPV (vanilloid), TRPM (melastatin), TRPP (polycystin), TRPML (mucolipin), TRPA (ankyrin), and TRPN (NO mechanopotential). During the past 20 years, the cloning and characterization after reexpression of most members of these cation channels have led to a plethora of data and more recently to some understanding of their roles in various cells and tissues. Specifically in the heart, TRPs are known to be involved in various diseases, including hypertrophy, heart failure, and arrhythmia. The later part of this review focuses on the potential contribution of TRPs to cardiac rhythm and their potential proarrhythmic effects. Furthermore, several neurotransmitters that activate the formation of diacylglycerol could modulate cardiac rhythm or, like ATP, induce arrhythmia.

Abstract
Although lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is known to increase intracellularfree calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in different cell types, the effect of LPA on the skeletal muscle cells is not known. The present study was therefore undertaken to examine the effect of LPA on the [Ca2+]i in C2C12 cells. LPA induced a concentration and time dependent increase in [Ca2+]i, which was inhibited by VPC12249, VPC 32183 and dioctanoyl glycerol pyrophosphate, LPA1/3 receptor antagonists. Pertussis toxin, a Gi protein inhibitor, also inhibited the LPA-induced increase in [Ca2+]i. Inhibition of tyrosine kinase activities with tyrphostin A9 and genistein also prevented the increase in [Ca2+]i due to LPA. Likewise, wortmannin and LY 294002, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K) inhibitors, inhibited [Ca2+]i response to LPA. The LPA effect was also attenuated by ethylene glycolbis(β-aminoethylether)-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (EGTA), an extracellular Ca2+ chelator, Ni2+ and KB-R7943, inhibitors of the Na+-Ca2+ exchanger; the receptor operated Ca2+ channel (ROC) blockers, 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate and SK&F 96365. However, the L-type Ca2+ channel blockers, verapamil and diltiazem; the store operated Ca2+ channel blockers, La3+ and Gd3+; a sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium pump inhibitor, thapsigargin; an inositol trisphosphate receptor antagonist, xestospongin and a phospholipase C inhibitor, U73122, did not prevent the increase [Ca2+]i due to LPA. Our data suggest that the LPA-induced increase in [Ca2+]i might occur through Gi-protein coupled LPA1/3 receptors that may be linked to tyrosine kinase and PI3-K, and may also involve the Na+-Ca2+ exchanger as well as the ROC. In addition, LPA stimulated C2C12 cell proliferation via PI3-K. Thus, LPA may be an important phospholipid in the regulation of [Ca2+]i and growth of skeletal muscle cells.

Abstract
Much work has focused on the electrophysiological properties of transient receptor potential channels. Recently, a novel aspect of importance emerged: the interplay of transient receptor potential channels with the cytoskeleton. Recent data suggest a direct interaction and functional repercussion for both binding partners. The bi-directionality of physical and functional interaction renders therefore, the cytoskeleton a potent integration point of complex biological signalling events, from both the cytoplasm and the extracellular space. In this minireview, we focus mostly on the interaction of the cytoskeleton with transient receptor potential vanilloid channels. Thereby, we point out the functional importance of cytoskeleton components both as modulator and as modulated downstream effector. The resulting implications for patho-biological situations are discussed.

Abstract
In eukaryotic cells, a rise in cytoplasmic Ca(2+) can activate a plethora of responses that operate on time scales ranging from milliseconds to days. Inherent to the use of a promiscuous signal like Ca(2+) is the problem of specificity: how can Ca(2+) activate some responses but not others? We now know that the spatial profile of the Ca(2+) signal is important Ca(2+) does not simply rise uniformly throughout the cytoplasm upon stimulation but can reach very high levels locally, creating spatial gradients. The most fundamental local Ca(2+) signal is the Ca(2+) microdomain that develops rapidly near open plasmalemmal Ca(2+) channels like voltage-gated L-type (Cav1.2) and store-operated CRAC channels. Recent work has revealed that Ca(2+) microdomains arising from these channels are remarkably versatile in triggering a range of responses that differ enormously in both temporal and spatial profile. Here, I delineate basic features of Ca(2+) microdomains and then describe how these highly local signals are used by Ca(2+)-permeable channels to drive cellular responses.

Abstract
AIM: To study the origin of calcium necessary for agonist-induced contraction of the distal colon in rats.
METHODS: The change in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) evoked by elevating external Ca2+ was detected by fura 2/AM fluorescence. Contractile activity was measured with a force displacement transducer. Tension was continuously monitored and recorded using a Powerlab 4/25T data acquisition system with an ML110 bridge bioelectric physiographic amplifier.
RESULTS: Store depletion induced Ca2+ influx had an effect on [Ca2+]i. In nominally Ca2+-free medium, the sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin (1 &mgr;mol/L) increased [Ca2+]i from 68 to 241 nmol/L, and to 458 (P < 0.01) and 1006 nmol/L (P < 0.01), respectively, when 1.5 mmol/L and 3.0 mmol/L extracellular Ca2+ was reintroduced. Furthermore, the change in [Ca2+]i was observed with verapamil (5 &mgr;mol/L), La3+ (1 mmol/L) or KCl (40 mmol/L) in the bathing solution. These channels were sensitive to La3+ (P < 0.01), insensitive to verapamil, and voltage independent. In isolated distal colons we found that in normal Krebs solution, contraction induced by acetylcholine (ACh) was partially inhibited by verapamil, and the inhibitory rate was 41% (P < 0.05). On the other hand, in Ca2+-free Krebs solution, ACh induced transient contraction due to Ca2+ release from the intracellular stores. The transient contraction lasted until the Ca2+ store was depleted. Restoration of extracellular Ca2+ in the presence of atropine produced contraction, mainly due to Ca2+ influx. Such contraction was not inhibited by verapamil, but was decreased by La3+ (50 &mgr;mol/L) from 0.96 to 0.72 g (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSION: The predominant source of activator Ca2+ for the contractile response to agonist is extracellular Ca2+, and intracellular Ca2+ has little role to play in mediating excitation-contraction coupling by agonists in rat distal colon smooth muscle in vitro. The influx of extracellular Ca2+ is mainly mediated through voltage-, receptor- and store-operated Ca2+ channels, which can be used as an alternative to develop new drugs targeted on the dysfunction of digestive tract motility.

Abstract
Endogenously expressed human canonical transient receptor potential 1 (hTRPC1) and human canonical transient receptor potential 6 (hTRPC6) have been shown to play a role in store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) in human platelets, where two mechanisms for SOCE, regulated by the dense tubular system (DTS) or the acidic granules, have been identified. In cells preincubated for 1 min with 100 microM flufenamic acid we show that hTRPC6 is involved in SOCE activated by both mechanisms, as demonstrated by selective depletion of the DTS or the acidic stores, using thapsigargin (TG) (10 nM) or 2,5-di-(tert-butyl)-1,4-hydroquinone (TBHQ) (20 microM), respectively, although it is more relevant after acidic store depletion. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments indicated that depletion of both stores separately results in time-dependent interaction between hTRPC1 and hTRPC6, and also between both hTRPCs and the type II IP3 receptor (IP3RII). The latter was greater after treatment with TG. TBHQ-induced coupling between hTRPC1 and 6 was transient and decreased after 30s of treatment, while that induced by TG increased for at least 3 min. TBHQ induced association between SERCA3, located in the acidic stores, hTRPC1, hTRPC6 and Orai1. TBHQ also evoked coupling between SERCA3 and IP3RII, presumably located in the DTS, thus suggesting interplay between both Ca2+ stores. Similarly, TG induces the interaction of SERCA2b with hTRPC1 and 6 and the IP3RII. The interactions between hTRPC1, hTRPC6, IP3RII and SERCA3 were impaired by disruption of the microtubules, supporting a role for microtubules in Ca2+ homeostasis. In conclusion, the present data demonstrate for the first time that hTRPC1, hTRPC6, IP3RII and SERCA3 are parts of a macromolecular protein complex activated by depletion of the intracellular Ca2+ stores in human platelets.

Abstract
TRPC3, 6 and 7 channels constitute a subgroup of non-selective, calcium-permeable cation channels within the TRP superfamily that are activated by products of phospholipase C-mediated breakdown of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)). A number of ion channels, including other members of the TRP superfamily, are regulated directly by PIP(2). However, there is little information on the regulation of the TRPC channel subfamily by PIP(2). Pretreatment of TRPC7-expressing cells with a drug that blocks the synthesis of polyphosphoinositides inhibited the ability of the synthetic diacylglycerol, oleyl-acetyl glycerol, to activate TRPC7. In excised patches, TRPC7 channels were robustly activated by application of PIP(2) or ATP, but not by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. Similar results were obtained with TRPC6 and TRPC3, although the effects of PIP(2) were somewhat less and with TRPC3 there was no significant effect of ATP. In the cell-attached configuration, TRPC7 channels could be activated by the synthetic diacylglycerol analog, oleyl-acetyl glycerol. However, this lipid mediator did not activate TRPC7 channels in excised patches. In addition, channel activation by PIP(2) in excised patches was significantly greater than that observed with oleyl-acetyl glycerol in the cell-attached configuration. These findings reveal complex regulation of TRPC channels by lipid mediators. The results also reveal for the first time direct activation by PIP(2) of members of the TRPC ion channel subfamily.

Abstract
Stromal interaction molecule (STIM) proteins are putative ER Ca2+ sensors that recruit and activate store-operated Ca2+ (SOC) channels at the plasma membrane, a process triggered by the Ca2+ depletion of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). To test whether STIM1 is required for ER refilling, we used RNA interference and measured Ca2+ signals in the cytosol, the ER, and the mitochondria of HeLa cells. Knockdown of STIM1 (mRNA levels, 73%) reduced SOC entry by 73% when sarco/endoplasmic Ca2+ ATPases (SERCA) were inhibited by thapsigargin but did not prevent Ca2+ stores refilling when cells were stimulated by physiological agonists. Stores could be fully refilled by increasing the external Ca2+ concentration above physiological values, but no cytosolic Ca2+ signals were detected during store refilling even at very high Ca2+ concentrations. [Ca2+](ER) measurements revealed that the basal activity of SERCA was not affected in STIM1 knockdown cells and that [Ca2+](ER) levels were restored within 2 min in physiological saline following store depletion. Mitochondrial inhibitors reduced ER refilling in wild-type but not in STIM1 knockdown cells, indicating that ER refilling does not require functional mitochondria at low STIM1 levels. Our data show that ER refilling is largely preserved at reduced STIM1 levels, despite a drastic reduction of store-operated Ca2+ entry, because Ca2+ ions are directly transferred from SOC channels to SERCA. These findings are consistent with the formation of microdomains containing not only SOC channels on the plasma membrane and STIM proteins on the ER but also SERCA pumps and mitochondria to refill the ER without perturbing the cytosol.

Abstract
Oxygen causes perinatal pulmonary dilatation. Although fetal pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PA SMC) normally respond to an acute increase in oxygen (O2) tension with a decrease in cytosolic calcium ([Ca2+]i), an acute increase in O2 tension has no net effect on [Ca(2+)](i) in PA SMC derived from lambs with chronic intrauterine pulmonary hypertension (PHTN). The present experimental series tests the hypothesis that an acute increase in O2 tension decreases capacitative calcium entry (CCE) in normal, but not hypertensive, fetal PA SMC. PA SMC were isolated from late-gestation fetal lambs after either ligation of the ductus arteriosus (PHTN) or sham (control) operation at 127 days gestation. PA SMC were isolated from the distal PA (>or=4th generation) and maintained under hypoxic conditions ( approximately 25 Torr) in primary culture. After fura 2 loading, apparent [Ca2+]i in PA SMC was determined as the ratio of 340- to 380-nm fluorescence intensity. Under both hypoxic and normoxic conditions, cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) increased [Ca2+]i more in PHTN than in control PA SMC. CCE was determined in PA SMC under hypoxic and normoxic conditions, after superfusion with zero extracellular Ca2+ and intracellular store depletion with CPA, followed by superfusion with Ca2+-containing solution, in the presence of the voltage-operated calcium channel blockade. CCE was increased in PHTN compared with control PA SMC under conditions of both acute and sustained normoxia. Transient receptor potential channel gene expression was greater in control compared with PHTN PA SMC. PHTN may compromise perinatal pulmonary vasodilation, in part, by modulating PA SMC CCE.

Abstract
In DT40 B lymphocytes, Canonical Transient Receptor Potential 7 (TRPC7) functions as a diacylglycerol-activated non-selective cation channel. However, previous work indicated that the non-store-operated Ca2+ entry in this cell type depends upon inositol trisphosphate receptors (IP3R). With the cell-attached configuration oleyl-acetyl-glycerol (OAG) induced single channel activity (75 pS) that was not observed in TRPC7-/- cells but was rescued by expression of TRPC7 under conditions expected to produce relatively low levels of expression ((LowT7)TRPC7-/-). A DT40 cell line lacking IP3R(IP3R-/- cells) showed no OAG-induced single channel activity, but this activity was rescued by transient expression of an IP3R((IP3R)IP3R-/-). Single channel properties in (LowT7)TRPC7-/- or (IP3R)IP3R-/- DT40 cells were indistinguishable from one another and from wild-type cells. Thus, TRPC7 forms, or is part of, the channel underlying endogenous diacylglycerol-activated currents in DT40 B lymphocytes, and this activity of native TRPC7 requires IP3R. However, with conditions expected to produce greater expression levels, TRPC7 functioned independently of the presence of IP3R. This finding may serve to resolve previously conflicting reports from expression studies of TRPC channels.
