Abstract
Cell cycle progression through its regulatory control by changes in intracellular Ca(2+) levels at the G1/S transition mediates cellular proliferation and viability. Ca(2+)/CaM-dependent kinase 1 (CaMKI) appears critical in regulating the assembly of the cyclin D1/cdk4 complex essential for G1 progression, but how this occurs is unknown. Cyclin D1/cdk4 assembly in the early G1 phase is also regulated via binding to p27. Here, we show that a ubiquitin E3 ligase component, F-box protein Fbxl12, mediates CaMKI degradation via a proteasome-directed pathway leading to disruption of cyclin D1/cdk4 complex assembly and resultant G1 arrest in lung epithelia. We also demonstrate that i) CaMKI phosphorylates p27 at Thr(157) and Thr(198) in human cells and at Thr(170) and Thr(197) in mouse cells to modulate its subcellular localization; ii) Fbxl12-induced CaMKI degradation attenuates p27 phosphorylation at these sites in early G1 and iii) activation of CaMKI during G1 transition followed by p27 phosphorylation appears to be upstream to other p27 phosphorylation events, an effect abrogated by Fbxl12 overexpression. Lastly, known inducers of G1 arrest significantly increase Fbxl12 levels in cells. Thus, Fbxl12 may be a previously uncharacterized, functional growth inhibitor regulating cell cycle progression that might be used for mechanism-based therapy.

Abstract
The membrane spanning complement channel is assumed to be a nonselective ion 'pore', although little evidence is available to support this hypothesis. In this paper we provide evidence that Ca2+ entry and Cl- exit occur rapidly after complement activation and precede the development of a long-lasting complement-dependent inward current. Addition of rabbit serum (a source of heterologous complement) and mouse anti-human insulin receptor antibody to a single Xenopus oocyte expressing human insulin receptor was shown to stimulate an initial hyperpolarising current followed by a sustained depolarising current. On voltage clamping the oocyte, a novel long-lasting inward current generated by serum addition was detected. Complement classical pathway-stimulated calcium influx into the oocyte was directly demonstrated using 45Ca influx measurements. In addition, we found that Ca2+ influx was required for the stimulation of the complement alternative pathway-dependent inward current. The novel conductance elicited by the classical pathway was outwardly rectifying, had a reversal potential of -35 +/- 8 mV (or -52 +/- 7 mV in the presence of chloride channel inhibitors), was inhibited by nifedipine, and was observed in the presence but not in the absence of the pore-forming complement component C9. As overactivation of complement does play a role in many inflammatory or autoimmune diseases, inhibition of early complement-mediated ion flux might restrict tissue damage and aid recovery from such diseases.

Abstract
The compound flufenamic acid has been previously described as an inhibitor of chloride- and non-selective cation channels. Moreover, this compound showed antiproliferative effects in the mouse fibroblast cell line LM(TK-). In this study, we investigated the effects of this compound on cell proliferation and membrane currents induced by mitogens (such as fetal calf serum, FCS) or platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in LM(TK-) cells. After a brief application of FCS or PDGF (5-15 s), the electrical response of the cells was biphasic: First, a transient potassium conductance was activated, which appeared 8.3 +/- 0.7 s after the onset of stimulation and lasted for 30.1 +/- 2.9 s. The corresponding single channel currents in cell-attached patches had an amplitude of 3-4 pA (at a holding potential of +60 mV). The second effect of serum or PDGF was the occurrence of a cation conductance for monovalent ions (sodium, potassium and cesium) and calcium. In contrast to the potassium current, this conductance activated later (11.8 +/- 1.6 s after onset of fetal calf serum stimulation) and remained activated for minutes. Flufenamic acid inhibited the proliferation of LM(TK-) cells reversibly and in a concentration-dependent manner. This effect can be correlated with the inhibitory effects of flufenamic acid on mitogen-induced membrane currents: The compound inhibited the non-selective cation current with an IC50 of 38 microM, whereas 135 microM were necessary for halfmaximal inhibition of the potassium current; this is very close to the concentration for halfmaximal inhibition of cell proliferation (120 microM). Hence, on the grounds of this comparison the blockade of the non-selective cation current appears to be of only minor importance for the blockade of cell proliferation.

Abstract
In quiescent Balb-c mouse 3T3 fibroblasts, the application of whole or dialyzed 10% foetal calf serum elicits a biphasic electrical response, consisting of a transient outward current, flowing through Ca(2+)-activated K+ channels, followed by an inward one, lasting up to 15 min. On the basis of experiments with ion substitutions and blockers, the inward current can be attributed to the opening of cationic channels permeable to Na+ and Ca2+ ions. This current could mediate the calcium influx involved in the sustained elevation of [Ca2+]i that has been observed in many preparations in response to mitogen stimulation and that is involved in triggering cell proliferation.

Abstract
The ability of purinergic agonists to induce Ca2+ responses has been tested in two lines of murine fibroblasts: normal NIH 3T3 fibroblasts and NIH 115.14, a clone expressing high levels [1] of the c-ras protooncogene. Both kinds of cells are responsive to ATP in the range 1 microM-1 mM; ADP and ATP gamma S are almost as potent as ATP, while AMP is unable to elicit a response. Ca2+ measurements performed in single cells by image analysis show great variability among cells but in each individual responding cell the Ca2+ rise occurs in an all-or-none fashion. The transient Ca2+ response does not depend on influx from the extracellular medium. Electrophysiological experiments reveal the activation of an outward current (at -50 mV) by ATP, probably due to Ca(2+)-activated K+ channels, confirming the absence of a substantial Ca2+ influx. Finally, stimulation by ATP produces a small but significant increase in the production of inositol phosphates. These results indicate that these cell lines possess purinergic receptors which are not integral membrane channels and which are coupled to InsP3 formation and may be therefore classified as P2Y.

Abstract
Application of 10 nM Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) to single EGFR-T17 fibroblasts induced a marked hyperpolarization that could last for tens of minutes; in many cases the first transient was followed by a series of oscillations of the membrane potential. The outward current responsible for the hyperpolarizing response could be recorded simultaneously to an increase in the intracellular calcium concentration, as measured with the fluorescent indicator fura-2. The conductance was nearly linear in the voltage range from -100 to +50 mV. While the EGF-induced current had many characteristics of a K+ current and was strongly reduced by 50 nM charybdotoxin (ChTx), its reversal potential was apparently more negative than the potassium equilibrium potential (VK). The application of 2 microM ouabain prior to EGF stimulation produced responses that were similar to those obtained without ouabain; however, under these conditions the EGF-induced current showed a reversal potential of -96.6 +/- 3.2 mV, very close to VK. Simultaneous application of both 2 microM ouabain and 50 nM ChTx completely abolished the response. It can be concluded that the response to EGF stimulation in EGFR-T17 cells consists of two components: the first is a current carried through Ca(2+)-activated K+ channels; the second is due to the acceleration of the operation of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase.

Abstract
Ca2+ transients (measured with Fluo-3) were induced in single mouse ovarian oocytes by photolytic liberation of InsP3. The time course of cytosolic Ca2+ changes induced in this way is composed of distinct phases: upstroke, fast decline, slow declining plateau and fast decline to rest level. All the phases reflect mainly intracellular redistributions of the ion and not influx, since they are not strongly dependent on external Ca2+ or on changes in transmembrane potential. Often sustained Ca2+ oscillations followed the first InsP3-induced Ca2+ transient. These persisted for several minutes in the absence of external Ca2+. The initial rate of Ca2+ rise and the delay between the InsP3 stimulus and Ca2+ upstroke are correlated with the amount of liberated InsP3. A second InsP3 stimulation, applied during the plateau, causes only small Ca2+ elevations, lacking the upstroke phase. A second, full sized, transient could be elicited only after a complete return to the basal level. Vanadate, applied intracellularly, appeared to inhibit the re-uptake phase into the stores, stabilizing the plateau level. The present observations suggest that in mouse oocytes the InsP3-sensitive stores provide only a small and graded Ca2+ release which may then act as a trigger for a more substantial Ca(2+)-induced Ca2+ release (CICR) process.

Abstract
1. Acute responses to bradykinin in human dermal fibroblasts were studied at 20-24 degrees C using both the patch-clamp technique to monitor ion currents and Fura-2 fluorescence to monitor [Ca2+]i. 2. During subconfluent culture, human dermal fibroblasts can express a diversity of ion channels as described in the preceding paper. 3. When GTP (1 mM) was included in the pipette solution, two additional ion channel populations were transiently augmented in response to bradykinin stimulation. 4. The first is a component of outwardly rectifying current which reached maximal induction within 10-15 s after bradykinin addition (1 microM) and then decayed back to near baseline over 60 s. 5. Ion substitution experiments combined with tail current analysis indicate that the outward current is carried predominantly by K+. 6. Video imaging of single-cell Fura-2 fluorescence from both intact cells and patch-clamped cells showed temporal correlation of the K+ current modulation and the Ca2+ transients in response to bradykinin stimulation. 7. The calcium ionophore, ionomycin, caused both an increase in intracellular calcium and the augmentation of the outward K+ current. The amount of additional K+ current was correlated with [Ca2+]i levels and could be elicited even without the presence of GTP in the pipette. 8. Apamin, a blocker of Ca(2+)-activated K+ channels, inhibited (at 1 microM) the ionomycin-induced modulation of K+ current. 9. In addition, an inward current was transiently induced in response to bradykinin. This current was strictly dependent on the presence of GTP in the pipette solution. This current showed little voltage dependence, as evidenced by a linear current vs. voltage relation, and a reversal potential near but measurably more positive than 0 mV. 10. This current could be decoupled from the Ca2+ transient and be irreversibly induced by including GTP gamma S (100 microM) in the pipette solution. 11. Ion substitution experiments show that this is a non-specific cation channel. This current prefers monovalents but exhibits a small permeability to divalents. 12. GTP gamma S-induced single channels from isolated outside-out patches showed similar ion selectivity and voltage dependence. These channels are 32 pS in size with an estimated reversal potential of 17 mV.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
We have used the whole cell technique to microinject human fibroblasts with either 1,4,5-inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) or 'caged' InsP3, in order to study the mechanisms of transmembrane signalling related to mitogenic stimulations. Cytosolic Ca2+ elevations in response to 1,4,5 InsP3 diffusing from the patch pipette were difficult to detect, while 1,4,5 InsP3, photoreleased after loading the cell with its inactive precursor, was capable of generating not only a single cytosolic Ca2+ rise but sometimes triggered an oscillatory calcium response, similar to that often observed under mitogenic stimulation. We estimated that less than 100 nM InsP3 was sufficient to generate Ca2+ responses. The Ca2+ rise produced by the photoreleased InsP3 could fully activate the K+ channels present in the plasma membrane of human fibroblasts.

Abstract
To better understand the mechanism of intracellular Ca2+ mobilization, mouse oocytes were micro-injected with 'caged'-inositol-1,4,5 triphosphate caged-InsP3) together with the Ca2+ indicator Fluo-3 to directly induce and monitor Ca2+ redistribution. Photo-released InsP3 elicits [Ca2+]i changes exhibiting several kinetic phases and threshold behaviour. Often Ca2+ oscillations were induced after a single InsP3 pulse. Autoregenerative Ca2+ transients could also be induced by injections of Ca2+ itself, demonstrating unequivocally the presence of a Ca2(+)-induced Ca2(+)-release mechanism in these cells.

Abstract
Using the whole-cell technique, we have measured recurring hyperpolarizations induced by fetal calf serum and bradykinin in human fibroblasts. By coupling fura-2 microfluorimetry to electrophysiology, we have also measured directly cytosolic Ca2+ and found that Ca2+ oscillations occur in synchrony with membrane currents. Mitogen stimulation of cells in which intracellular K+ had been replaced with Cs+ resulted in the abolishment of the outward current. We conclude then that the mitogen-induced recurring hyperpolarizations in human fibroblasts are due to the opening of Ca2(+)-activated K+ channels.
