Abstract
Peptides containing Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) immobilized on beads bind to integrins and trigger biphasic, transient increases in intracellular free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) in Madin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cells. The [Ca2+]i increase participates in feedback regulation of integrin-mediated adhesion in these cells. We examined influx pathways and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-mediated Ca2+ store release as possible sources of the [Ca2+]i rise. The RGD-induced [Ca2+]i response requires external Ca2+ (threshold approximately 150 microM), and its magnitude is proportional to extracellular calcium. RGD-induced transients were attenuated by Ca2+ channel inhibitors (Ni2+ and carboxy-amidotriazole) or by plasma membrane depolarization, indicating that Ca2+ influx contributes to the response. Loading cells with heparin reduced the size of RGD-induced [Ca2+]i transients, indicating that IP3-mediated release of Ca2+ from stores may also contribute to the RGD response. Depletion of Ca2+ stores with thapsigargin activated Ni(2+)-sensitive Ca2+ influx that might also be expected to occur after IP3-mediated depletion of stored Ca2-. However, RGD elicited a Ni(2+)-sensitive Ca2+ influx even after pretreatment with thapsigargin, indicating that Ca2+ influx is controlled by a mechanism independent of IP3-mediated store depletion. We conclude that RGD-induced [Ca2+]i transients in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells result primarily from the combination of two distinct mechanisms: 1) IP3-mediated release of intracellular stores, and 2) activation of a Ca2+ influx pathway regulated independently of IP3 and Ca2+ store release. Because Ni2+ and carboxy-amidotriazole inhibited adhesion, whereas store depletion with thapsigargin had little effect, we suggest that the Ca2+ influx mechanism is most important for feedback regulation of integrin-mediated adhesion by increased [Ca2+]i.
