Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the major intracellular calcium (Ca2+) storage compartment in eukaryotic cells. In most instances, the mobilization of Ca2+ from this store is followed by a delayed and sustained uptake of Ca2+ through Ca2+-permeable channels of the cell surface named store-operated Ca2+ channels (SOCCs). This gives rise to a store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) that has been thoroughly investigated in electrically non-excitable cells where it is the principal regulated Ca2+ entry pathway. The existence of this Ca2+ route in neurons has long been a matter of debate. However, a growing body of experimental evidence indicates that the recruitment of Ca2+ from neuronal ER Ca2+ stores generates a SOCE. The present review summarizes the main studies supporting the presence of a depletion-dependent Ca2+ entry in neurons. It also addresses the question of the molecular composition of neuronal SOCCs, their expression, pharmacological properties, as well as their physiological relevance.

Abstract
In the present study, the effect of the blockade of membrane calcium channels activated by intracellular Ca(2+) store depletion on basal and depolarization-induced [3H]norepinephrine ([3H]NE) release from SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells was examined. The second-generation H(1) receptor blockers astemizole, terfenadine, and loratadine, as well as the first-generation compound hydroxyzine, inhibited [3H]NE release induced by high extracellular K(+) concentration ([K(+)](e)) depolarization in a concentration-dependent manner (the IC(50)s were 2.3, 1.7, 4.8, and 9.4 microM, respectively). In contrast, the more hydrophilic second-generation H(1) receptor blocker cetirizine was completely ineffective (0.1-30 microM). The inhibition of high [K(+)](e)-induced [3H]NE release by H(1) receptor blockers seems to be related to their ability to inhibit Ca(2+) channels activated by Ca(i)(2+) store depletion (SOCs). In fact, astemizole, terfenadine, loratadine, and hydroxyzine, but not cetirizine, displayed a dose-dependent inhibitory action on the increase in intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)](i)) obtained with extracellular Ca(2+) reintroduction after Ca(i)(2+) store depletion with thapsigargin (1 microM), an inhibitor of the sarcoplasmic-endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA) pump. The rank order of potency for SOC inhibition by these compounds closely correlated with their inhibitory properties on depolarization-induced [3H]NE release from SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells. Nimodipine (1 microM) plus omega-conotoxin (100 nM) did not interfere with the present model for SOC activation. In addition, the inhibition of depolarization-induced [3H]NE release does not seem to be attributable to the blockade of the K(+) currents carried by the K(+) channels encoded by the human Ether-a-Gogo Related Gene (I(HERG)) by these antihistamines. In fact, whole-cell voltage-clamp experiments revealed that the IC(50) for astemizole-induced hERG blockade is about 300-fold lower than that for the inhibition of high K(+)-induced [3H]NE release. Furthermore, current-clamp experiments in SH-SY5Y cells showed that concentrations of astemizole (3 microM) which were effective in preventing depolarization-induced [3H]NE release were unable to interfere with the cell membrane potential under depolarizing conditions (100 mM [K(+)](e)), suggesting that hERG K(+) channels do not contribute to membrane potential control during exposure to elevated [K(+)](e). Collectively, the results of the present study suggest that, in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells, the inhibition of SOCs by some second-generation antihistamines can prevent depolarization-induced neurotransmitter release.

Abstract
1. The effects of Gd3+ on bradykinin- (BK-) induced catecholamine secretion, 45Ca2+ efflux and cytosolic [Ca2+] were studied using bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. 2. BK increased secretion in a Ca2+-dependent manner. From 1 - 100 microM, Gd3+ progressively inhibited secretion induced by 30 nM BK to near-basal levels, however from 0.3 - 3 mM Gd3+ dramatically enhanced BK-induced secretion to above control levels. Gd3+ also increased basal catecholamine secretion by 2 - 3 fold at 1 mM. These effects were mimicked by Eu3+ and La3+. 3. Gd3+ enhanced secretion induced by other agonists that mobilize intracellular Ca2+ stores, but simply blocked the response to K+. 4. Gd3+ still enhanced basal and BK-induced secretion in Ca2+-free solution or in the presence of 30 microM SKF96365, however both effects of Gd3+ were abolished after depleting intracellular Ca2+ stores. 5. Gd3+ (1 mM) reduced the rate of basal 45Ca2+ efflux by 57%. In Ca2+-free buffer, BK transiently increased cytosolic [Ca2+] measured with Fura-2. The [Ca2+] response to BK was substantially prolonged in the presence of Gd3+ (1 mM). 6. The results suggest that Gd3+ greatly enhances the efficacy of Ca2+ released from intracellular stores in evoking catecholamine secretion, by inhibiting Ca2+ extrusion from the cytosol. This suggests that intracellular Ca2+ stores are fully competent to support secretion in chromaffin cells to levels comparable to those evoked by extracellular Ca2+ entry. Drugs that modify Ca2+ extrusion from the cell, such as lanthanide ions, will be useful in investigating the mechanisms by which intracellular Ca2+-store mobilization couples to Ca2+-dependent exocytosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine which antecedent infections are specifically associated with the Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). BACKGROUND Infections with many agents have been reported preceding GBS. Some infections are related to specific clinical and immunologic subgroups in GBS. Most agents were reported in case reports and uncontrolled small series of GBS patients only, and their relation to GBS and its subgroups remains unclear. METHOD A serologic study for 16 infectious agents in 154 GBS patients and 154 sex- and age-matched controls with other neurologic diseases. Acute phase, pretreatment samples were used from clinically well-defined GBS patients. The seasonal distribution of serum sampling in the GBS and control group was the same. RESULTS Multivariate analysis showed that in GBS patients, infections with Campylobacter jejuni (32%), cytomegalovirus (13%), and Epstein-Barr virus (10%) were significantly more frequent than in controls. Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections occurred more often in GBS patients (5%) than in controls in univariate analysis. Infections with Haemophilus influenzae (1%), parainfluenza 1 virus (1%), influenza A virus (1%), influenza B virus (1%), adenovirus (1%), herpes simplex virus (1%), and varicella zoster virus (1%) were also demonstrated in GBS patients, but not more frequently than in controls. C. jejuni infections were associated with antibodies to the gangliosides GM1 and GD1b and with a severe pure motor form of GBS. Cytomegalovirus infections were associated with antibodies to the ganglioside GM2 and with severe motor sensory deficits. Other infections were not related to specific antiganglioside antibodies and neurologic patterns. CONCLUSIONS Recent infections with C. jejuni, cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, and M. pneumoniae are specifically related to GBS. The variety of infections may contribute to the clinical and immunologic heterogeneity of GBS.

Abstract
Gadolinium (Gd3+) blocks cation-selective stretch-activated ion channels (SACs) and thereby inhibits a variety of physiological and pathophysiological processes. Gd3+ sensitivity has become a simple and widely used method for detecting the involvement of SACs, and, conversely, Gd3+ insensitivity has been used to infer that processes are not dependent on SACs. The limitations of this approach are not adequately appreciated, however. Avid binding of Gd3+ to anions commonly present in physiological salt solutions and culture media, including phosphate- and bicarbonate-buffered solutions and EGTA in intracellular solutions, often is not taken into account. Failure to detect an effect of Gd3+ in such solutions may reflect the vanishingly low concentrations of free Gd3+ rather than the lack of a role for SACs. Moreover, certain SACs are insensitive to Gd3+, and Gd3+ also blocks other ion channels. Gd3+ remains a useful tool for studying SACs, but appropriate care must be taken in experimental design and interpretation to avoid both false negative and false positive conclusions.

Abstract
The mitochondrial electron transport chain enzyme cytochrome c oxidase (COX) is defective in patients with sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD). This defect arises from the mutation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). To develop a tissue culture system that would express this genetically derived bioenergetic lesion and permit characterization of its functional consequences, we depleted Ntera2/D1 (NT2) teratocarcinoma cells of endogenous mtDNA and repopulated them with platelet mtDNA from AD patients. Cytochrome c oxidase activity was depressed in the resulting AD cytoplasmic hybrids (cybrids) compared with cybrids prepared with mtDNA from non-AD controls. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and free radical scavenging enzyme activities were significantly elevated in AD cybrids. A COX defect in NT2 AD cybrid lines indicates that AD patients possess mtDNA COX gene mutations that are sufficient for determining this biochemical lesion. Expression of unique functional characteristics (increased ROS production and free radical scavenging enzyme activities) relevant to neurodegeneration demonstrates the utility of these cells in defining AD pathophysiology at a cellular level. This in vitro tissue culture model of AD may prove useful in drug screening.

Abstract
We undertook a safety and pharmacokinetic study of intrathecal (i.t.) recombinant human superoxide dismutase (rhSOD1). We administered rhSOD1 as an acute bolus in three sheep and 16 human subjects with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Two sheep received chronic i.t. infusion of rhSOD1 (one at 17.7 mg per day, the second at 38.0 mg per day) for six months. Two of the 16 subjects had familial ALS and mutations in the gene for Cu/Zn SOD1. They both received i.t. infusion of rhSOD1 (5 to 10 mg per day) for 3 to 6 months. Intrathecal rhSOD1 administration was safe. Bolus i.t. administration of 0.25 mg rhSOD1 in sheep revealed a mean elimination half-life of 0.4 (SD +/- 0.06) hours, clearance of 12.2 +/- 3.2 ml per hour, and volume of distribution of 7.3 +/- 0.9 ml. After chronic i.t. infusion, the initial alpha-phase half-life was estimated as 1.2 hours and the extended beta-phase half-life was 15.0 hours. The mean clearance rate was 25.9 ml per hour and the steady-state volume of distribution was 920.6 ml. Bolus i.t. administration of 20 micrograms of rhSOD1 in ALS subjects revealed a mean elimination half-life of 2.2 +/- 0.8 hours, clearance of 1.2 +/- 0.6 ml per hour, and volume of distribution of 3.5 +/- 0.4 ml. With chronic i.t. infusion of 5 mg per day, cerebrospinal SOD1 levels increased approximately fortyfold. We detected no benefit of this treatment in the two patients with familial ALS.

Abstract
The role of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaM kinase; EC 2.7.1.123) in the generation of Ca2+ signals by muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR) was studied. Changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) induced by mAChR activation were monitored in SK-N-SH human neuroblastoma cells using the dye Fura-2. SK-N-SH cells express M3 mAChR, as well as CaM kinase types II and IV, which are specifically inhibited by the CaM kinase antagonist KN-62 (1-[N,O-bis(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-N-methyl-L-tyrosyl]-4-phenylpiperazi ne). Carbamylcholine (100 microM) elicited an initial transient peak in [Ca2+]i due to mobilization of Ca2+ from internal stores, followed by a sustained elevation in [Ca2+]i that depended on the influx of extracellular Ca2+ and which was inhibited by EGTA and Ni2+. These mAChR-induced Ca2+ signals were diminished to an equal extent by preincubating the cells with 0.01 to 100 microM KN-62. KN-62 inhibited mAChR-induced Ca2+ influx and mobilization from internal stores by about 25-30%, producing a half-maximal effect at approximately 1 microM. In contrast, KN-62 (25 microM) almost completely abolished carbamylcholine-stimulated entry of divalent cations through Mn2+-permeant channels, as revealed by Mn2+ quenching of Fura-2 fluorescence. KN-62 also almost completely abolished Ca2+ influx induced by depolarization of the cells with 25 mM K+ (IC50 = 3 microM). These results suggest that CaM kinases regulate both the mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ and the stimulation of Ca2+ influx that are induced by mAChR activation, and indicate that the mAChR-induced influx of Ca2+ occurs through Ca2+ channels other than, or in addition to, the voltage-gated calcium channels or Mn2+-permeant channels which are inhibited by KN-62.

Abstract
We investigated the influence of ion compositions on the membrane potential in LA-N-1 human neuroblastoma cells using bisoxonol as a potential-sensitive fluorescent dye. The ability of K+, ouabain, veratridine, and maitotoxin to induce membrane depolarization was evaluated. Increasing concentrations of K+ ions from 10 to 50 mM caused a dose-dependent increase of bisoxonol fluorescence, which was completely independent on Na+ and Ca2+. Ouabain (5 mM), an inhibitor of the Na+, K(+)-ATPase, failed to induce membrane depolarization. Veratridine (40 and 100 microM), a Na+ channel activator, only in the presence of 10 micrograms of Leiurus scorpion venom reduced the membrane potential. Maitotoxin (MTX) from 3 to 10 ng/mL depolarized LA-N-1 cells in a dose-dependent manner, and produced a rapid and sustained increase of intracellular free calcium monitored by means of fluorescent probe fura-2. The MTX-induced depolarization and the increase in cytosolic free calcium concentration were dependent on extracellular Ca2+ ions. On the other hand, Na+ ions also seem to be, although only partially, implicated in the MTX effects, since both the blockade of tetrodotoxin (TTX)-sensitive voltage-operated Na+ channels and the removal of Na+ ions were able to reduce the depolarization. In conclusion, our data indicate that the depolarizing action of MTX on LA-N-1 cells is Ca(2+)- and Na(+)-dependent, although the latter only partially, and that this effect is dependent on Ca2+ influx into the cells likely through a voltage-insensitive calcium-entry system.

Abstract
5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)-induced increase of intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was monitored in cultured canine tracheal smooth muscle cells (TSMCs) using a fluorescent Ca2+ indicator Fura-2. Stimulation of TSMCs by 5-HT produced an initial transient peak followed by a sustained, concentration-dependent elevation of [Ca2+]i. The log (EC50) values of 5-HT for the peak and sustained plateau responses were -7.43 and -7.60 M, respectively. 5-HT1A and 5-HT3 receptor antagonists, NAN-190 and metoclopramide, inhibited the 5-HT-stimulated increase in [Ca2+]i with pKB values of 6.3 and 6.2, respectively, indicating that the 5-HT receptors mediating Ca2+ signal had low affinity for these receptor antagonists. In contrast, 5-HT2A receptor antagonists, ketanserin and mianserin, had high affinity in antagonizing the changes in [Ca2+]i response to 5-HT with pKB values of 8.3 and 8.3, respectively. The sustained elevation of [Ca2+]i was dependent on the presence of extracellular Ca2+. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ by addition of 2 mM EGTA during the sustained phase caused a rapid decline in [Ca2+]i to the resting level. In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, only an initial peak was observed which then declined to the resting level; the sustained elevation of [Ca2+]i could then be evoked by addition of 1.8 mM Ca2+ in the continued presence of 5-HT. Ca2+ influx was required for the changes of [Ca2+]i, since the Ca(2+)-channel blockers, diltiazem, verapamil, and Ni2+, decreased both the initial and sustained elevation of [Ca2+]i in response to 5-HT. These Ca(2+)-channel blockers also decreased the sustained elevation of [Ca2+]i when applied during the plateau phase. In conclusion, these findings indicate that the initial increase in [Ca2+]i stimulated by 5-HT acting on 5-HT2A receptors is due to the release of Ca2+ from internal stores, followed by the influx of external Ca2+ into the cells. The influx of extracellular Ca2+ partially involves a diltiazem and verapamil sensitive Ca2+ channel.

Abstract
Bradykinin (BDK)-induced increases in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) were monitored in cultured canine tracheal smooth muscle cells (TSMCs) using a fluorescent Ca2+ indicator, Fura-2. BDK and kallidin caused an initial transient peak followed by a sustained elevation of [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner, with half-maximal stimulation (log EC50) obtained at -8.10 M and -8.04 M, respectively. The BDK-induced rise in [Ca2+]i was not affected by the BDK B1 receptor antagonist, des-Arg9[Leu8]-BDK (10 microM). However, the BDK B2 receptor antagonists des-Arg[Hyp3, Thi5,8, D-Phe7]-BDK and Hoe 140 had high affinity in antagonizing BDK with pKB values of 7.5 +/- 0.3 and 8.7 +/- 0.3, respectively. The sustained phase of the rise in [Ca2+]i was dependent on the presence of external Ca2+, as evidenced by a decline to the resting level on addition of EGTA. In the absence of external Ca2+, only an initial transient peak was seen which then declined to the resting level; a sustained elevation of [Ca2+]i could then be evoked by addition of 1.8 mM Ca2+ in the continued presence of BDK. Ca2+ influx was required for the changes in [Ca2+]i, since Ca(2+)-channel blockers, diltiazem, verapamil, and Ni2+, decreased both the initial and sustained elevation of [Ca2+]i in response to BDK. In conclusion, these findings indicate that the initial increase in [Ca2+]i stimulated by BDK acting on BDK B2 receptors is due to the release of Ca2+ from internal stores, followed by the influx of external Ca2+ into the cells. The influx of extracellular Ca2+ partially involves a diltiazem- and verapamil-sensitive Ca2+ channel.

Abstract
Muscarinic receptors expressed by rat oligodendrocyte primary cultures were examined by measuring changes in second messengers following exposure to carbachol, an acetylcholine analog, and by polymerase chain reaction. Inositol phosphate levels were measured in [3H]myo-inositol-labelled young oligodendrocyte cultures following stimulation with carbachol. Atropine, a specific muscarinic antagonist, prevented the carbachol-induced accumulation of inositol phosphates. The formation of inositol trisphosphate was concentration- and time-dependent, with the peak at 100 microM carbachol and 10 min. Carbachol increased intracellular calcium levels, which were dependent both on the mobilization of intracellular stores and influx of extracellular calcium. In initial experiments with more selective antagonists, the mobilization of intracellular calcium was preferentially inhibited by pirenzepine, a selective M1 antagonist, but not methoctramine, a selective M2 antagonist, suggesting M1 muscarinic receptor involvement. A role for protein kinase C in the regulation of carbachol-stimulated inositol phosphate formation and intracellular calcium mobilization was demonstrated, as acute pretreatment with phorbol-12,13-myristate acetate abolished the formation of both second messengers. Pretreatment with 100 microM carbachol abolished the 40% increase in the cyclic AMP accumulation stimulated by isoproterenol, a specific beta-adrenergic agonist. In turn, the inhibition was alleviated by pretreatment with atropine, suggesting muscarinic receptor involvement. Polymerase chain reaction carried out with specific m1 and m2 muscarinic receptor oligonucleotide primers, confirmed that these cells express, at least, the two muscarinic receptor subtypes. Without excluding the expression of other subtypes, these results suggest that developing oligodendrocytes express m1 (M1) and m2 (M2) muscarinic receptors capable of mediating phosphoinositide hydrolysis, mobilization of intracellular calcium and the attenuation of beta-adrenergic stimulation of cyclic AMP formation.

Abstract
1. The regulation of cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) during exposure to carbachol was measured directly in canine cultured tracheal smooth muscle cells (TSMCs) loaded with fura-2. Stimulation of muscarinic cholinoceptors (muscarinic AChRs) by carbachol produced a dose-dependent rise in [Ca2+]i which was followed by a stable plateau phase. The EC50 values of carbachol for the peak and sustained plateau responses were 0.34 and 0.33 microM, respectively. 2. Atropine (10 microM) prevented all the responses to carbachol, and when added during a response to carbachol, significantly, but not completely decreased [Ca2+]i within 5 s. Therefore, the changes in [Ca2+]i by carbachol were mediated through the muscarinic AChRs. 3. AF-DX 116 (a selective M2 antagonist) and 4-diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperidine (4-DAMP, a selective M3 antagonist) inhibited the carbachol-stimulated increase in [Ca2+]i with pKB values of 6.4 and 9.4, respectively, corresponding to low affinity for AF-DX 119 and high affinity for 4-DAMP in antagonizing this response. 4. The plateau elevation of [Ca2+]i was dependent on the presence of external Ca2+. Removal of Ca2+ by the addition of 2 mM EGTA caused the [Ca2+]i to decline rapidly to the resting level. In the absence of external Ca2+, only an initial transient peak of [Ca2+]i was seen which then declined to the resting level; the sustained elevation of [Ca2+]i could then be evoked by the addition of Ca2+ (1.8 mM) in the continued presence of carbachol. 5.Ca2+ influx was required for the changes of [Ca2+]i, since the Ca2+-channel blockers, diltiazem(10 microM), nifedipine (10 microM), verapamil (10 microM) and Ni2+ (5 mM), decreased both the initial and sustained elevation of [Ca2+], in response to carbachol. These Ca2+-channel blockers also decreased the sustained elevation of [Ca2+], when applied during the plateau phase.6. In conclusion, we have demonstrated that the initial detectable increase in carbachol-stimulated[Ca2+]J is due to the release of Ca2+ from internal stores, followed by the flux of external Ca2+ into the cells. This influx of extracellular Ca2+ partially involves an L-type Ca2+-channel. M3 muscarinic receptors appear to mediate the Ca2+ mobilization in canine TSMCs.
