Abstract
Piezo1 is a Ca2+-permeable mechanically activated ion channel that is involved in various physiological processes and cellular responses to mechanical stimuli. The study of biophysical characteristics of Piezo1 is important for understanding the mechanisms of its function and regulation. Stretch activation, a routine approach that is applied to stimulate Piezo1 activity in the plasma membrane, has a number of significant limitations that complicate precise single-channel analysis. Here, we aimed to determine pore properties of native Piezo1, specifically to examine permeation for physiologically relevant signaling divalent ions (calcium and magnesium) in human myeloid leukemia K562 cells using Piezo1-specific chemical agonist, Yoda1. Using a combination of low-noise single-current patch-clamp recordings of Piezo1 activity in response to Yoda1, we have determined single-channel characteristics of native Piezo1 under various ionic conditions. Whole-cell assay allowed us to directly measure Piezo1 single currents carried by Ca2+ or Mg2+ ions in the absence of other permeable cations in the extracellular solutions; unitary conductance values estimated at various concentrations of Mg2+ revealed strong saturation effect. Patch clamp data complemented with fluorescent imaging clearly evidenced Ca2+ and Mg2+ entry via native Piezo1 channel in human leukemia K562 cells. Mg2+ influx via Piezo1 was detected under quasi-physiological conditions, thus showing that Piezo1 channels could potentially provide the physiological relevant pathway for Mg2+ ion transport and contribute to the regulation of Mg2+-dependent intracellular signaling.

Abstract
Calcium-activated potassium channels (KCa) are important participants in calcium signaling pathways due to their ability to be activated by an increase in intracellular free calcium concentration. KCa channels are involved in the regulation of cellular processes in both normal and pathophysiological conditions, including oncotransformation. Previously, using patch-clamp, we registered the KCa currents in the plasma membrane of human chronic myeloid leukemia K562 cells, whose activity was controlled by local Ca2+ entry via mechanosensitive calcium-permeable channels. Here, we performed the molecular and functional identification of KCa channels and have uncovered their role in the proliferation, migration and invasion of K562 cells. Using a combined approach, we identified the functional activity of SK2, SK3 and IK channels in the plasma membrane of the cells. Selective SK and IK channel inhibitors, apamin and TRAM-34, respectively, reduced the proliferative, migratory and invasive capabilities of human myeloid leukemia cells. At the same time, the viability of K562 cells was not affected by KCa channel inhibitors. Ca2+ imaging showed that both SK and IK channel inhibitors affect Ca2+ entry and this could underlie the observed suppression of pathophysiological reactions of K562 cells. Our data imply that SK/IK channel inhibitors could be used to slow down the proliferation and spreading of chronic myeloid leukemia K562 cells that express functionally active KCa channels in the plasma membrane.

Abstract
Piezo1/2 are mechanosensitive calcium-permeable channels that can be activated by various modes of membrane deformation. The identification of the small molecule Yoda1, a synthetic Piezo1 agonist, revealed the possibility of chemical activation of the channel. Stimulating effects of Yoda1 on Piezo1 have been mainly documented using over-expressing cellular systems or channel proteins incorporated in artificial lipid bilayers. However, the activating effect of Yoda1 on native Piezo1 channels in the plasma membrane of living cells remains generally undefined, despite the increasing number of studies in which the agonist is utilized as a functional tool to reveal the contribution of Piezo1 to cellular reactions. In the current study, we used the human myeloid leukemia K562 cell line as a suitable model to examine chemically induced Piezo1 activity with the use of the patch-clamp technique in various specific modes. The functional expression of Piezo1 in leukemia cells was evidenced using a combinative approach, including single channel patch-clamp measurements. Utilizing our established single-current whole-cell assay on K562 cells, we have shown, for the first time, the selective real-time chemical activation of endogenously expressed Piezo1. Extracellular application of 0.5-1 µM Yoda1 effectively stimulated single Piezo1 currents in the cell membrane.

Abstract
A microfluidic microdevice was developed to exert mechanical stimulation on an individual suspension cell for mechanosensation research. In this microfluidic chip, an individual cell was isolated from a population of cells, and trapped in a microchannel with a compressive component made of a deflectable membrane. The mechanosensation of HL60 cells (leukemic cells) was studied using this chip, and the results showed that mechanical stimulations could trigger extracellular calcium to flow into HL60 cells through ion channels on cell membranes. The tension on individual HL60 cells exerted by the microdevice was showed large variations in the threshold of mechanosensation activation. In contrast to previous reports using patch clamp technique, there was little influence of cytoskeleton interruption on HL60 cell mechanosensation triggered by whole-cell compression. Additionally, two functional units were integrated in one chip for carrying out mechanosensation study in parallel, where HL60 cells (leukemic cells) and Jurkat cells (lymphocytes) were shown to respond to mechanical stimulation with different kinetics. The results demonstrated that the microfluidic device provides a novel approach to investigating the mechanosensation of single suspension cells in high-throughput.

Abstract
Compelling evidence shows that intracellular free magnesium [Mg(2+)](i) may be a critical regulator of cell activity in eukaryotes. However, membrane transport mechanisms mediating Mg(2+) influx in mammalian cells are poorly understood. Here, we show that mechanosensitive (MS) cationic channels activated by stretch are permeable for Mg(2+) ions at different extracellular concentrations including physiological ones. Single-channel currents were recorded from cell-attached and inside-out patches on K562 leukaemia cells at various concentrations of MgCl(2) when Mg(2+) was the only available carrier of inward currents. At 2 mM Mg(2+), inward mechanogated currents representing Mg(2+) influx through MS channels corresponded to the unitary conductance of about 5 pS. At higher Mg(2+) levels, only slight increase of single-channel currents and conductance occurred, implying that Mg(2+) permeation through MS channels is characterized by strong saturation. At 20 and 90 mM Mg(2+), mean conductance values for inward currents carried by Mg(2+) were rather similar, being equal to 6.8 +/- 0.5 and 6.4 +/- 0.5 pS, respectively. The estimation of the channel-selective permeability according to constant field equation is obviously limited due to saturation effects. We conclude that the detection of single currents is the main evidence for Mg(2+) permeation through membrane channels activated by stretch. Our single-current measurements document Mg(2+) influx through MS channels in the plasma membrane of leukaemia cells.

Abstract
Mechanosensitive channels in various eucaryotic cells are thought to be functionally and structurally coupled to the cortical cytoskeleton. However, the results of electrophysiological studies are rather controversial and the functional impact of cytoskeleton assembly-disassembly on stretch-activated channel properties remains unclear. Here, the possible involvement of cytoskeletal elements in the regulation of stretch-activated Ca2+-permeable channels was studied in human leukaemia K562 cells with the use of agents that selectively modify the actin or tubulin system. F-actin disassembly resulted in a considerable reduction of the amplitude of stretch-activated currents without significant change in channel open probability. The effects of treatments with cytochalasins or latrunculin were principally similar, developed gradually and consisted a strong decrease of single channel conductance. Microtubule disruption did not affect stretch-activated channels. The data presented here are in principal agreement with the general conclusion that mechanosensitive channel functions are largely dependent on the integrity of the cortical actin cytoskeleton. Specifically, changes in conductive properties of the pore may provide an essential mechanism of channel regulation underlying functional modulation of membrane currents. Our results allow one to speculate that microfilament organization may be an important determinant in modulating biophysical characteristics of stretch-activated cation channels in cells of blood origin.

Abstract
Methylmercury (MeHg; 10-100 microM) induced a spontaneous, transient, slow inward current in Purkinje cells in rat cerebellar slices. Insensitivity of this current to tetrodotoxin suggests that its generation is not related to presynaptic firing. The present study was designed to attempt to identify the ionic origin of this current. Neither Gd(3+), a nonspecific cation channel blocker, nor tetrakis(2-pyridylmethyl)ethylethylenediamine, which chelates Zn(2+), could prevent this current. Following dialysis of cells with a low-[Cl(-)] pipette solution, the giant currents were inducible only when the cells were held at potentials more positive than 0 mV but not at potentials more negative than -60 mV. In addition, no giant currents were observed when cells were held at 0 mV under symmetrical [Cl(-)] conditions. Thus, this current seems to be mediated by Cl(-). However, it was insensitive to the glycine receptor antagonist strychnine. The anion channel blockers 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS) or niflumic acid suppressed GABA(A) receptor-mediated spontaneous inhibitory postsynaptic currents. Niflumic acid also prevented appearance of this giant current; DIDS was only effective at more positive membrane potentials. Thus, this current seems to be carried by a voltage-dependent Cl(-) channel. Reducing extracellular Ca(2+) concentration and/or intracellular application of the Ca(2+) chelator 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid seemed to be ineffective at preventing appearance of this current. Thus, these data do not seem to support the conclusion that this current is mediated by a Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) channel. The role that this current plays in MeHg-induced neurotoxicity is unknown.

Abstract
In this study, the expression and functional characterization of CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator) was determined in K562 chronic human leukemia cells. Expression of the CFTR gene product was determined by RT-PCR and confirmed by immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis. Functional characterization of CFTR Cl- channel activity was conducted with patch-clamp techniques. Forskolin, an adenylyl cyclase activator, induced an anion-selective channel with a linear current-voltage relationship and a single-channel conductance of 11 pS. This cAMP-activated channel had a Pgluconate/PCl or PF/PCl perm-selectivity ratio of 0.35 and 0.30, respectively, and was inhibited by the CFTR blocker glibenclamide and the anti-CFTR antibody MAb 13-1, when added to the cytoplasmatic side of the patch. Glibenclamide decreased the open probability increasing the frequency of open-to-closed transitions. Addition of 200 microM DIDS caused an irreversible block of the channels when added to the cytosolic side of inside-out patches. These and other observations indicate a widespread distribution of CFTR gene expression and suggest that this channel protein may function in most human cells to help maintain cellular homeostasis.
