5 ns electric pulses induce Ca 2+-dependent exocytotic release of catecholamine from adrenal chromaffin cells. Bioelectrochemistry 2021; 140:107830. [PMID: 33965669 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2021.107830] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2020] [Revised: 04/21/2021] [Accepted: 04/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Previously we reported that adrenal chromaffin cells exposed to a 5 ns, 5 MV/m pulse release the catecholamines norepinephrine (NE) and epinephrine (EPI) in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Here we determined that NE and EPI release increased with pulse number (one versus five and ten pulses at 1 Hz), established that release occurs by exocytosis, and characterized the exocytotic response in real-time. Evidence of an exocytotic mechanism was the appearance of dopamine-β-hydroxylase on the plasma membrane, and the demonstration by total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy studies that a train of five or ten pulses at 1 Hz triggered the release of the fluorescent dye acridine orange from secretory granules. Release events were Ca2+-dependent, longer-lived relative to those evoked by nicotinic receptor stimulation, and occurred with a delay of several seconds despite an immediate rise in Ca2+. In complementary studies, cells labeled with the plasma membrane fluorescent dye FM 1-43 and exposed to a train of ten pulses at 1 Hz underwent Ca2+-dependent increases in FM 1-43 fluorescence indicative of granule fusion with the plasma membrane due to exocytosis. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of ultrashort electric pulses for stimulating catecholamine release, signifying their promise as a novel electrostimulation modality for neurosecretion.

Montenegro M, Bayonés L, Moya-Díaz J, Borassi C, Martín Toscani A, Gallo LI, Marengo FD. Rapid vesicle replenishment after the immediately releasable pool exocytosis is tightly linked to fast endocytosis, and depends on basal calcium and cortical actin in chromaffin cells. J Neurochem 2021; 157:1069-1085. [PMID: 33338257 DOI: 10.1111/jnc.15276] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2020] [Revised: 11/25/2020] [Accepted: 12/12/2020] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
The maintenance of the secretory response requires a continuous replenishment of releasable vesicles. It was proposed that the immediately releasable pool (IRP) is important in chromaffin cell secretion during action potentials applied at basal physiological frequencies, because of the proximity of IRP vesicles to voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels. However, previous reports showed that IRP replenishment after depletion is too slow to manage such a situation. In this work, we used patch-clamp measurements of membrane capacitance, confocal imaging of F-actin distribution, and cytosolic Ca2+ measurements with Fura-2 to re-analyze this problem in primary cultures of mouse chromaffin cells. We provide evidence that IRP replenishment has one slow (time constant between 5 and 10 s) and one rapid component (time constant between 0.5 and 1.5 s) linked to a dynamin-dependent fast endocytosis. Both, the fast endocytosis and the rapid replenishment component were eliminated when 500 nM Ca2+ was added to the internal solution during patch-clamp experiments, but they became dominant and accelerated when the cytosolic Ca2+ buffer capacity was increased. In addition, both rapid replenishment and fast endocytosis were retarded when cortical F-actin cytoskeleton was disrupted with cytochalasin D. Finally, in permeabilized chromaffin cells stained with rhodamine-phalloidin, the cortical F-actin density was reduced when the Ca2+ concentration was increased in a range of 10-1000 nM. We conclude that low cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations, which favor cortical F-actin stabilization, allow the activation of a fast endocytosis mechanism linked to a rapid replenishment component of IRP.

Abstract
Most accepted single particle tracking methods are able to obtain high-resolution trajectories for relatively short periods of time. In this work we apply a straightforward combination of single-particle tracking microscopy and metallic nanoparticles internalization on mouse chromaffin cells to unveil the intracellular trafficking mechanism of metallic-nanoparticle-loaded vesicles (MNP-V) complexes after clathrin dependent endocytosis. We found that directed transport is the major route of MNP-Vs intracellular trafficking after stimulation (92.6% of the trajectories measured). We then studied the MNP-V speed at each point along the trajectory, and found that the application of a second depolarization stimulus during the tracking provokes an increase in the percentage of low-speed trajectory points in parallel with a decrease in the number of high-speed trajectory points. This result suggests that stimulation may facilitate the compartmentalization of internalized MNPs in a more restricted location such as was already demonstrated in neuronal and neuroendocrine cells (Bronfman et al 2003 J. Neurosci. 23 3209-20). Although further experiments will be required to address the mechanisms underlying this transport dynamics, our studies provide quantitative evidence of the heterogeneous behavior of vesicles mobility after endocytosis in chromaffin cells highlighting the potential of MNPs as alternative labels in optical microscopy to provide new insights into the vesicles dynamics in a wide variety of cellular environments.

Abstract
The recycling of synaptic vesicle (SV) proteins and transmitter release occur at multiple sites along the axon. These processes are sensitive to inhibition of the small GTP binding protein ARF1, which regulates the adaptor protein 1 and 3 complex (AP-1/AP-3). As the axon matures, SV recycling becomes restricted to the presynaptic bouton, and its machinery undergoes a complex process of maturation. We used the styryl dye FM1-43 to highlight differences in the efficiency of membrane recycling at different sites in cerebellar granule cells cultured for 7 days in vitro. We used Brefeldin A (BFA) to inhibit AP-1/AP-3-mediated recycling and to test the contribution of this pathway to the heterogeneity of the responses when these cells are strongly stimulated. Combining imaging techniques and ultrastructural analyses, we found a significant decrease in the density of functional boutons and an increase in the presence of endosome-like structures within the boutons of cells incubated with BFA prior to FM1-43 loading. Such effects were not observed when BFA was added 5 min after the end of the loading step, when endocytosis was almost fully completed. In this situation, vesicles were found closer to the active zone (AZ) in boutons exposed to BFA. Together, these data suggest that the AP-1/AP-3 pathway contributes to SV recycling, affecting different steps in all boutons but not equally, and thus being partly responsible for the heterogeneity of the different recycling efficiencies.

Abstract
Huntingtin-associated protein-1 (HAP1) is involved in intracellular trafficking, vesicle transport, and membrane receptor endocytosis. However, despite such diverse functions, the role of HAP1 in the synaptic vesicle (SV) cycle in nerve terminals remains unclear. Here, we report that HAP1 functions in SV exocytosis, controls total SV turnover and the speed of vesicle fusion in nerve terminals and regulates glutamate release in cortical brain slices. We found that HAP1 interacts with synapsin I, an abundant neuronal phosphoprotein that associates with SVs during neurotransmitter release and regulates synaptic plasticity and neuronal development. The interaction between HAP1 with synapsin I was confirmed by reciprocal co-immunoprecipitation of the endogenous proteins. Furthermore, HAP1 co-localizes with synapsin I in cortical neurons as discrete puncta. Interestingly, we find that synapsin I localization is specifically altered in Hap1(-/-) cortical neurons without an effect on the localization of other SV proteins. This effect on synapsin I localization was not because of changes in the levels of synapsin I or its phosphorylation status in Hap1(-/-) brains. Furthermore, fluorescence recovery after photobleaching in transfected neurons expressing enhanced green fluorescent protein-synapsin Ia demonstrates that loss of HAP1 protein inhibits synapsin I transport. Thus, we demonstrate that HAP1 regulates SV exocytosis and may do so through binding to synapsin I. The Proposed mechanism of synapsin I transport mediated by HAP1 in neurons. HAP1 interacts with synapsin I, regulating the trafficking of synapsin I containing vesicles and/or transport packets, possibly through its engagement of microtubule motors. The absence of HAP1 reduces synapsin I transport and neuronal exocytosis. These findings provide insights into the processes of neuronal trafficking and synaptic signaling.

Abstract
Large dense core vesicle (LDCV) exocytosis in chromaffin cells follows a well characterized process consisting of docking, priming, and fusion. Total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM) studies suggest that some LDCVs, although being able to dock, are resistant to calcium-triggered release. This phenomenon termed dead-end docking has not been investigated until now. We characterized dead-end vesicles using a combination of membrane capacitance measurement and visualization of LDCVs with TIRFM. Stimulation of bovine chromaffin cells for 5 min with 6 μm free intracellular Ca2+ induced strong secretion and a large reduction of the LDCV density at the plasma membrane. Approximately 15% of the LDCVs were visible at the plasma membrane throughout experiments, indicating they were permanently docked dead-end vesicles. Overexpression of Munc18-2 or SNAP-25 reduced the fraction of dead-end vesicles. Conversely, expressing open-syntaxin increased the fraction of dead-end vesicles. These results indicate the existence of the unproductive target soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor acceptor complex composed of 2:1 syntaxin-SNAP-25 in vivo. More importantly, they define a novel function for this acceptor complex in mediating dead-end docking.

Abstract
Although much has been learned concerning the mechanisms of secretory vesicle formation and fusion at donor and acceptor membrane compartments, relatively little attention has been paid toward understanding how cells maintain a homeostatic membrane balance through vesicular trafficking. In neurons and neuroendocrine cells, release of neurotransmitters, neuropeptides, and hormones occurs through calcium-regulated exocytosis at the plasma membrane. To allow recycling of secretory vesicle components and to preserve organelles integrity, cells must initiate and regulate compensatory membrane uptake. This review relates the fate of secretory granule membranes after full fusion exocytosis in neuroendocrine cells. In particular, we focus on the potential role of lipids in preserving and sorting secretory granule membranes after exocytosis and we discuss the potential mechanisms of membrane retrieval.

Abstract
It is generally accepted that the immediately releasable pool is a group of readily releasable vesicles that are closely associated with voltage dependent Ca2+ channels. We have previously shown that exocytosis of this pool is specifically coupled to P/Q Ca2+ current. Accordingly, in the present work we found that the Ca2+ current flowing through P/Q-type Ca2+ channels is 8 times more effective at inducing exocytosis in response to short stimuli than the current carried by L-type channels. To investigate the mechanism that underlies the coupling between the immediately releasable pool and P/Q-type channels we transiently expressed in mouse chromaffin cells peptides corresponding to the synaptic protein interaction site of Cav2.2 to competitively uncouple P/Q-type channels from the secretory vesicle release complex. This treatment reduced the efficiency of Ca2+ current to induce exocytosis to similar values as direct inhibition of P/Q-type channels via ω-agatoxin-IVA. In addition, the same treatment markedly reduced immediately releasable pool exocytosis, but did not affect the exocytosis provoked by sustained electric or high K+ stimulation. Together, our results indicate that the synaptic protein interaction site is a crucial factor for the establishment of the functional coupling between immediately releasable pool vesicles and P/Q-type Ca2+ channels.

Abstract
AIM After exocytosis, neuroendocrine cells and neurones keep constant the plasma membrane and the releasable vesicle pools by performing endocytosis and vesicular cycling. Patch-clamp capacitance measurements on chromaffin cells showed that strong Ca(+2) entry activates excess retrieval: a rapid endocytosis process that retrieves more membrane than the one fused by preceding exocytosis. The main purpose of the present experiments was to study the recycling pathway that follows excess retrieval, which is unknown. METHODS Membrane recycling after exocytosis-endocytosis can be studied by fluorescence imaging assays with FM1-43 (Perez Bay et al. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 2007; 293, C1509). In this work, we used this assay in combination with fluorescent dextrans and specific organelle-targeted antibodies to study the membrane recycling after excess retrieval in mouse chromaffin cells. RESULTS Excess retrieval was observed after the application of high-K(+) or cholinergic agonists during 15 or 30 s in the presence of FM1-43. We found that the excess retrieval membrane pool (defined as endocytosis-exocytosis) was associated with the generation of a non-releasable fraction of membrane (up to 30% of plasma membrane surface) colocalizing with the lysosomal compartment. The excess retrieval membrane pool followed a saturable cytosolic Ca(2+) dependency, and it was suppressed by inhibitors of L-type Ca(2+) channels, endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) release and PKC. CONCLUSION Excess retrieval is not associated with the cycling of releasable vesicles, but it is related to the formation of non-releasable endosomes. This process is activated by a concerted contribution of Ca(2+) entry through L-channels and Ca(2+) release from endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
Following the exocytosis of neurotransmitter-containing synaptic vesicles, endocytosis is fundamental to re-establishing conditions for synaptic transmission. As there are distinct endocytotic pathways that each differ in their efficiency to generate releasable synaptic vesicles, we used the dye FM1-43 to track vesicle recycling, and to determine whether nerve terminals use multiple pathways of endocytosis. We identified two types of synaptic boutons in cultured cerebellar granule cells that were characterized by weak or strong FM1-43-unloading profiles. Decreasing the extent of exocytosis dramatically increased the proportion of synaptic boutons that exhibited strong FM1-43-unloading and dramatically reduced the number of endosome-like structures. Hence, we concluded that efficient recycling of synaptic vesicles is concomitant with the formation of non-releasable endosomes in both types of synaptic boutons, although to different extents. Furthermore, cell maturation in culture increased the proportion of synaptic boutons that were capable of an intense release response, whereas the chronic blockage of synaptic activity diminished the capacity of boutons to release dye.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca(2+))-dependent endocytosis has been linked to preferential Ca(2+) entry through the L-type (α(1D), Ca(V)1.3) of voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels (VDCCs). Considering that the Ca(2+)-dependent exocytotic release of neurotransmitters is mostly triggered by Ca(2+) entry through N-(α(1B), Ca(V)2.2) or PQ-VDCCs (α(1A), Ca(V)2.1) and that exocytosis and endocytosis are coupled, the supposition that the different channel subtypes are specialized to control different cell functions is attractive. Here we have explored this hypothesis in primary cultures of bovine adrenal chromaffin cells where PQ channels account for 50% of Ca(2+) current (I(Ca)), 30% for N channels, and 20% for L channels. We used patch-clamp and fluorescence techniques to measure the exo-endocytotic responses triggered by long depolarizing stimuli, in 1, 2, or 10 mM concentrations of extracellular Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](e)). Exo-endocytotic responses were little affected by ω-conotoxin GVIA (N channel blocker), whereas ω-agatoxin IVA (PQ channel blocker) caused 80% blockade of exocytosis as well as endocytosis. In contrast, nifedipine (L channel blocker) only caused 20% inhibition of exocytosis but as much as 90% inhibition of endocytosis. Conversely, FPL67146 (an activator of L VDCCs) notably augmented endocytosis. Photoreleased caged Ca(2+) caused substantially smaller endocytotic responses compared with those produced by K(+) depolarization. Using fluorescence antibodies, no colocalization between L, N, or PQ channels with clathrin was found; a 20-30% colocalization was found between dynamin and all three channel antibodies. This is incompatible with the view that L channels are coupled to the endocytotic machine. Data rather support a mechanism implying the different inactivation rates of L (slow-inactivating) and N/PQ channels (fast-inactivating). Thus a slow but more sustained Ca(2+) entry through L channels could be a requirement to trigger endocytosis efficiently, at least in bovine chromaffin cells.

Abstract
Endocrine cells, such as H295R have been widely used to study secretion of steroid and other hormones. Exocytosis-dependent hormone release is accompanied by an increase in plasma membrane surface area and a decrease in vesicle content. Recovery of vesicles and decrease in plasma membrane area is achieved by endocytotic processes. These changes in the extent of the surface area lead to morphological changes which can be determined by label-free real-time impedance measurements. Exo- and endocytosis have been described to be triggered by activation of L-type Ca(2+) channels. The present study demonstrates that activation of L-type calcium channels induces prolonged oscillating changes in cellular impedance. The data support the hypothesis that a tight regulation of the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration is a prerequisite for the observed cellular impedance oscillations. Furthermore evidence is presented for a mechanism in which the oscillations depend on a Ca(2+)-triggered calmodulin-dependent cascade involving myosin light chain kinase, nonmuscle myosin II and ultimately actin polymerization, a known determinant for cell shape changes and exocytosis in secretory cells. The described assay provides a method to determine continuously prolonged changes in cellular morphology such as exo/endocytosis cycles. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: 11th European Symposium on Calcium.

Abstract
Endocytosis is a crucial process for neuroendocrine cells that ensures membrane homeostasis, vesicle recycling, and hormone release reliability. Different endocytic mechanisms have been described in chromaffin cells, such as clathrin-dependent slow endocytosis and clathrin-independent rapid endocytosis. Rapid endocytosis, classically measured in terms of a fast decrease in membrane capacitance, exhibits two different forms, "rapid compensatory endocytosis" and "excess retrieval." While excess retrieval seems to be associated with formation of long-lasting endosomes, rapid compensatory endocytosis is well correlated with exocytotic activity, and it is regarded as a mechanism associated to rapid vesicle recycling during normal secretory activity. It has been suggested that rapid compensatory endocytosis may be related to the prevalence of a transient fusion mode of exo-endocytosis. In the latter mode, the fusion pore, a nanometric-sized channel formed at the onset of exocytosis, remains open for a few hundred milliseconds and later abruptly closes, releasing a small amount of transmitters. By this mechanism, endocrine cell selectively releases low molecular weight transmitters, and rapidly recycles the secretory vesicles. In this article, we discuss the cellular and molecular mechanisms that define the different forms of exocytosis and endocytosis and their impact on vesicle recycling pathways.

Abstract
ClC-3 is an intracellular chloride transport protein known to reside on endosomes and synaptic vesicles. The endogenous protein has been notoriously difficult to detect in immunohistological experiments because of the lack of reliable antibodies. Using newly generated antibodies, we now examine its expression pattern at the cellular and subcellular level. In all tissues examined, immunostaining indicated that ClC-3 is a vesicular protein, with a prominent expression in endocrine cells like adrenal chromaffin cells and pancreatic islet cells. In line with a possible function of ClC-3 in regulating vesicle trafficking or exocytosis in those secretory cells, capacitance measurements and amperometry indicated that exocytosis of large dense-core vesicles (LDCVs) was decreased in chromaffin cells from ClC-3 knock-out mice. However, immunohistochemistry complemented with subcellular fractionation showed that ClC-3 is not detectable on LDCVs of endocrine cells, but localizes to endosomes and synaptic-like microvesicles in both adrenal chromaffin and pancreatic beta cells. This observation points to an indirect influence of ClC-3 on LDCV exocytosis in chromaffin cells, possibly by affecting an intracellular trafficking step.

Abstract
AIMS This study looks into the physiology of the exocytosis of catecholamines released by adrenal medullary chromaffin cells. We have comparatively explored the exocytotic responses elicited by two different patterns of depolarizing stimulation: the widely employed square depolarizing pulses (DPs) and trains of acetylcholine-like action potentials (APs), likely the physiological mode of stimulation in the intact innervated adrenal medulla. APs were applied at 30 Hz, a frequency similar to that produced in a stressful situation. METHODS Patch-clamp, cell membrane capacitance, single cell amperometry and fluorescence were the techniques used. The variations of calcium entry measured as the integral of the calcium current, cytosolic calcium (measured with the calcium-sensitive fluorescent probe fluo-4) and exo-endocytosis (membrane capacitance variations) were the parameters measured. RESULTS Trains of AP depolarizations produced distinct responses compared to those of square depolarizations: (1) Calcium current amplitude decreased to a lesser extent along the AP train; (2) calcium entry and capacitance increments raised linearly with stimulation time whereas they deviated from linearity when square depolarizations were used; (3) slower activation and faster delayed decay phase of cytosolic calcium transients; (4) capacitance increments varied linearly with calcium entry with APs and deviated from linearity with longer depolarizations; (5) little endocytosis after stimulation with longer trains of APs and pronounced endocytosis with longer square depolarizations. CONCLUSIONS Stimulation of chromaffin cells with trains of APs produced patterns of cytosolic calcium transients, exocytotic and endocytotic responses quite different from those elicited by the widely employed DPs. Our study is relevant from the methodological and physiological points of view.
