Internalization-Dependent Free Fatty Acid Receptor 2 Signaling Is Essential for Propionate-Induced Anorectic Gut Hormone Release. iScience 2020; 23:101449. [PMID: 32853993 PMCID: PMC7452316 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2020.101449] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2020] [Revised: 07/30/2020] [Accepted: 08/10/2020] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
The ability of propionate, a short-chain fatty acid produced from the fermentation of non-digestible carbohydrates in the colon, to stimulate the release of anorectic gut hormones, such as glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1), is an attractive approach to enhance appetite regulation, weight management, and glycemic control. Propionate induces GLP-1 release via its G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), free fatty acid receptor 2 (FFA2), a GPCR that activates Gαi and Gαq/11. However, how pleiotropic GPCR signaling mechanisms in the gut regulates appetite is poorly understood. Here, we identify propionate-mediated G protein signaling is spatially directed within the cell whereby FFA2 is targeted to very early endosomes. Furthermore, propionate activates a Gαi/p38 signaling pathway, which requires receptor internalization and is essential for propionate-induced GLP-1 release in enteroendocrine cells and colonic crypts. Our study reveals that intestinal metabolites engage membrane trafficking pathways and that receptor internalization could orchestrate complex GPCR pathways within the gut.

Abstract
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are expressed throughout the hippocampus, and nicotinic signaling plays an important role in neuronal function. In the context of learning and memory related behaviors associated with hippocampal function, a potentially significant feature of nAChR activity is the impact it has on synaptic plasticity. Synaptic plasticity in hippocampal neurons has long been considered a contributing cellular mechanism of learning and memory. These same kinds of cellular mechanisms are a factor in the development of nicotine addiction. Nicotinic signaling has been demonstrated by in vitro studies to affect synaptic plasticity in hippocampal neurons via multiple steps, and the signaling has also been shown to evoke synaptic plasticity in vivo. This review focuses on the nAChRs subtypes that contribute to hippocampal synaptic plasticity at the cellular and circuit level. It also considers nicotinic influences over long-term changes in the hippocampus that may contribute to addiction.

Age dependent nicotinic influences over dopamine neuron synaptic plasticity. Biochem Pharmacol 2009; 78:686-92.

Abstract
The dopamine (DA) system of the ventral midbrain plays a critical role as mammals learn adaptive behaviors driven by environmental salience and reward. Addictive drugs, including nicotine, exert powerful influences over the mesolimbic DA system by activating and desensitizing nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in a subtype-dependent manner. Nicotine induces synaptic plasticity at excitatory synapses onto DA neurons, thereby sending elevated DA signals that participate during the reinforcement of addictive behaviors. While humans and animals of any developmental age are potentially vulnerable to these drug-induced effects, evidence from clinical and epidemiological studies indicates that adolescents have an increased risk of addiction. Although this risk arises from a complex set of variables including societal and psychosocial influences, a contributing factor involves age dependent sensitivity to addictive drugs. One aspect of that sensitivity is drug-induced synaptic plasticity at excitatory synapses onto the dopamine neurons in the ventral midbrain. A single, acute exposure to addictive drugs, including nicotine, produces long-term potentiation (LTP) that can be quantified by measuring the shift in the subtypes of ionotropic glutamate receptors mediating evoked synaptic transmission. This change in glutamatergic transmission is expressed as an increased ratio of AMPA receptors to NMDA receptors at glutamatergic synapses. Age-related differences in the excitability and the nicotine sensitivity within the midbrain dopamine system may contribute to the greater risk of nicotine addiction in adolescent animals and humans.

Abstract
We have studied the functional role of CaV3 channels in triggering fast exocytosis in rat chromaffin cells (RCCs). CaV3 T-type channels were selectively recruited by chronic exposures to cAMP (3 days) via an exchange protein directly activated by cAMP (Epac)-mediated pathway. Here we show that cAMP-treated cells had increased secretory responses, which could be evoked even at very low depolarizations (-50, -40 mV). Potentiation of exocytosis in cAMP-treated cells did not occur in the presence of 50 microM Ni2+, which selectively blocks T-type currents in RCCs. This suggests that the "low-threshold exocytosis" induced by cAMP is due to increased Ca2+ influx through cAMP-recruited T-type channels, rather than to an enhanced secretion downstream of Ca2+ entry, as previously reported for short-term cAMP treatments (20 min). Newly recruited T-type channels increase the fast secretory response at low voltages without altering the size of the immediately releasable pool. They also preserve the Ca2+ dependence of exocytosis, the initial speed of vesicle depletion, and the mean quantal size of single secretory events. All this indicates that cAMP-recruited CaV3 channels enhance the secretory activity of RCCs at low voltages by coupling to the secretory apparatus with a Ca2+ efficacy similar to that of already existing high-threshold Ca2+ channels. Finally, using RT-PCRs we found that the fast inactivating low-threshold Ca2+ current component recruited by cAMP is selectively associated to the alpha1H (CaV3.2) channel isoform.

Abstract
Understanding precisely the functioning of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels and their modulation by signaling molecules will help clarifying the Ca(2+)-dependent mechanisms controlling exocytosis in chromaffin cells. In recent years, we have learned more about the various pathways through which Ca2+ channels can be up- or down-modulated by hormones and neurotransmitters and how these changes may condition chromaffin cell activity and catecolamine release. Recently, the attention has been focused on the modulation of L-channels (CaV 1), which represent the major Ca2+ current component in rat and human chromaffin cells. L-channels are effectively inhibited by the released content of secretory granules or by applying mixtures of exogenous ATP, opioids, and adrenaline through the activation of receptor-coupled G proteins. This unusual inhibition persists in a wide range of potentials and results from a direct (membrane-delimited) interaction of G protein subunits with the L-channels co-localized in membrane microareas. Inhibition of L-channels can be reversed when the cAMP/PKA pathway is activated by membrane permeable cAMP analog or when cells are exposed to isoprenaline (remote action), suggesting the existence of parallel and opposite effects on L-channel gating by distinctly activated membrane autoreceptors. Here, the authors review the molecular components underlying these two opposing signaling pathways and present new evidence supporting the presence of two L-channel types in rat chromaffin cells (alpha1C and alpha1D), which open new interesting issues concerning Ca(2+)-channel modulation. In light of recent findings on the regulation of exocytosis by Ca(2+)-channel modulation, the authors explore the possible role of L-channels in the autocontrol of catecholamine release.

Abstract
Dopamine inhibits pituitary melanotrope cells of the amphibian Xenopus laevis through activation of a dopamine (D2) receptor that couples to a Gi protein. Activated Gi protein subunits are known to affect voltage-operated Ca2+ currents (ICa). In the present study we investigated which Ca2+ currents are regulated by D2-receptor activation and which Gi protein subunits are involved. Whole-cell voltage-clamp patch-clamp experiments from holding potentials (HPs) of -80 and -30 mV show that 28.6 and 36.9%, respectively, of the total ICa was inhibited by apomorphin, a D2-receptor agonist. The inhibited current had fast activation and inactivation kinetics. From an HP of -80 mV, inhibition of N-type Ca2+ currents with omega-conotoxin GVIA and R-type current by SNX-482 reduced the efficacy of the apomorphin-induced inhibition. From an HP of -30 mV this reduction for omega-conotoxin GVIA was still observed. Blocking L-type current by nifedipine or P/Q-type current by omega-agatoxin IVA did not affect apomorphin-induced inhibition at either HP. Our results imply that D2-receptor activation inhibits both N- and R-type Ca2+ currents. Using a strong depolarizing pre-pulse partially reversed the inhibition of the total current by apomorphin. About 50% of this inhibition was achieved through interaction of Gbeta/gamma proteins, and this part of the inhibited ICa had fast activating and inactivating kinetics. However, the other part of the current inhibited by D2-receptor activation may proceed through Galpha-PKA phosphorylation.

Abstract
We examined the dopamine (DA) modulation of calcium currents (ICa) that could contribute to the plasticity of the pyloric network in the lobster stomatogastric ganglion. Pyloric somata were voltage-clamped under conditions designed to block voltage-gated Na+, K+, and H currents. Depolarizing steps from -60 mV generated voltage-dependent, inward currents that appeared to originate in electrotonically distal, imperfectly clamped regions of the cell. These currents were blocked by Cd2+ and enhanced by Ba2+ but unaffected by Ni2+. Dopamine enhanced the peak ICa in the pyloric constrictor (PY), lateral pyloric (LP), and inferior cardiac (IC) neurons and reduced peak ICa in the ventricular dilator (VD), pyloric dilator (PD), and anterior burster (AB) neurons. All of these effects, except for the AB, are consistent with DA's excitation or inhibition of firing in the pyloric neurons. Enhancement of ICa in PY and LP neurons and reduction of ICa in VD and PD neurons are also consistent with DA-induced synaptic strength changes via modulation of presynaptic ICa. However, the reduction of ICa in AB suggests that DA's enhancement of AB transmitter release is not directly mediated through presynaptic ICa. ICa in PY and PD neurons was more sensitive to nifedipine block than in AB neurons. In addition, nifedipine blocked DA's effects on ICa in the PY and PD neurons but not in the AB neuron. Thus the contribution of specific calcium channel subtypes carrying the total ICa may vary between pyloric neuron classes, and DA may act on different calcium channel subtypes in the different pyloric neurons.

Abstract
The effects of neomycin on voltage-activated Ca(2+) channels (VACCs) were studied by Ca(2+)-dependent K(+)- and veratridine-evoked [3H]dopamine release from rat striatal slices. Neomycin (0.01-1 mM) concentration dependently reduced K(+)-evoked [3H]dopamine release (IC(50) approximately 25 microM), producing approximately 98% inhibition at 1 mM. Contribution of N-, P- and Q-type Ca(2+) channels to this neomycin-sensitive [3H]dopamine release was tested by the combined application of 100 microM neomycin and selective Ca(2+) channel blockers. The effects of neomycin combined with 1 microM of omega-conotoxin GVIA (N-type Ca(2+) channels) or with 100 nM of omega-conotoxin MVIIC (Q-type Ca(2+) channels) were additive, excluding involvement of N- and Q-type Ca(2+) channels. However, the combined effects of neomycin with 30 nM of omega-agatoxin-IVA (P-type Ca(2+) channels) were not additive, suggesting involvement of P-type Ca(2+) channels in neomycin-induced inhibition of [3H]dopamine release. On the other hand, veratridine-evoked [3H]dopamine release was shown to be mediated by Q-type Ca(2+) channels only. In addition, neither the inhibitor of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase thapsigargin (500 nM) nor the blocker of sarcoplasmic reticulum ryanodine Ca(2+) channels ryanodine (30 microM) modulate veratridine-evoked [3H]dopamine release, suggesting no contribution of intracellular Ca(2+) stores. Neomycin (up to 100 microM) did not affect veratridine-evoked [3H]dopamine release, suggesting that intracellular Ca(2+) stores are not a prerequisite for the action of neomycin. Lack of inhibitory effect of neomycin is taken as additional indirect evidence for the involvement of P-type Ca(2+) channels. In conclusion, therapeutically relevant concentrations of neomycin preferentially block P-type Ca(2+) channels which regulate dopamine release in rat striatum. This block could be responsible for aminoglycoside-induced toxicity.
