Identification of a dihydropyridine scaffold that blocks ryanodine receptors. iScience 2022; 25:103706.

Abstract
Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are large, intracellular ion channels that control Ca2+ release from the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum. Dysregulation of RyRs in skeletal muscle, heart, and brain has been implicated in various muscle pathologies, arrhythmia, heart failure, and Alzheimer's disease. Therefore, there is considerable interest in therapeutically targeting RyRs to normalize Ca2+ homeostasis in scenarios involving RyR dysfunction. Here, a simple invertebrate screening platform was used to discover new chemotypes targeting RyRs. The approach measured Ca2+ signals evoked by cyclic adenosine 5′-diphosphate ribose, a second messenger that sensitizes RyRs. From a 1,534-compound screen, FLI-06 (currently described as a Notch “inhibitor”) was identified as a potent blocker of RyR activity. Two closely related tyrosine kinase inhibitors that stimulate and inhibit Ca2+ release through RyRs were also resolved. Therefore, this simple screen yielded RyR scaffolds tractable for development and revealed an unexpected linkage between RyRs and trafficking events in the early secretory pathway. FLI-06 inhibits transport in the secretory pathway via an unknown mechanism An invertebrate screening platform revealed FLI-06 blocks intracellular Ca2+ release FLI-06 acts as a potent, cell-permeable ryanodine receptor (RyR) blocker The para-substituted dihydropyridine chemotype is a new scaffold for RyR modulation

Abstract
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a form of obstructive vascular disease. Chronic hypoxic exposure leads to excessive proliferation of pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells and pulmonary arterial endothelial cells. This condition can potentially be aggravated by [Ca2+] i mobilization. In the present study, hypoxia exposure of rat's model was established. Two‐pore segment channels (TPCs) silencing was achieved in rats' models by injecting Lsh‐TPC1 or Lsh‐TPC2. The effects of TPC1/2 silencing on PAH were evaluated by H&E staining detecting pulmonary artery wall thickness and ELISA assay kit detecting NAADP concentrations in lung tissues. TPC1/2 silencing was achieved in PASMCs and PAECs, and cell proliferation was detected by MTT and BrdU incorporation assays. As the results shown, NAADP‐activated [Ca2+]i shows to be mediated via two‐pore segment channels (TPCs) in PASMCs, with TPC1 being the dominant subtype. NAADP generation and TPC1/2 mRNA and protein levels were elevated in the hypoxia‐induced rat PAH model; NAADP was positively correlated with TPC1 and TPC2 expression, respectively. In vivo, Lsh‐TPC1 or Lsh‐TPC2 infection significantly improved the mean pulmonary artery pressure and PAH morphology. In vitro, TPC1 silencing inhibited NAADP‐AM‐induced PASMC proliferation and [Ca2+]i in PASMCs, whereas TPC2 silencing had minor effects during this process; TPC2 silencing attenuated NAADP‐AM‐ induced [Ca2+]i and ECM in endothelial cells, whereas TPC1 silencing barely ensued any physiological changes. In conclusion, TPC1/2 might provide a unifying mechanism within pulmonary arterial hypertension, which can potentially be regarded as a therapeutic target.

Abstract
An increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) regulates a plethora of functions in the cardiovascular (CV) system, including contraction in cardiomyocytes and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), and angiogenesis in vascular endothelial cells and endothelial colony forming cells. The sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (SR/ER) represents the largest endogenous Ca2+ store, which releases Ca2+ through ryanodine receptors (RyRs) and/or inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (InsP3Rs) upon extracellular stimulation. The acidic vesicles of the endolysosomal (EL) compartment represent an additional endogenous Ca2+ store, which is targeted by several second messengers, including nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) and phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate [PI(3,5)P2], and may release intraluminal Ca2+ through multiple Ca2+ permeable channels, including two-pore channels 1 and 2 (TPC1-2) and Transient Receptor Potential Mucolipin 1 (TRPML1). Herein, we discuss the emerging, pathophysiological role of EL Ca2+ signaling in the CV system. We describe the role of cardiac TPCs in β-adrenoceptor stimulation, arrhythmia, hypertrophy, and ischemia-reperfusion injury. We then illustrate the role of EL Ca2+ signaling in VSMCs, where TPCs promote vasoconstriction and contribute to pulmonary artery hypertension and atherosclerosis, whereas TRPML1 sustains vasodilation and is also involved in atherosclerosis. Subsequently, we describe the mechanisms whereby endothelial TPCs promote vasodilation, contribute to neurovascular coupling in the brain and stimulate angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. Finally, we discuss about the possibility to target TPCs, which are likely to mediate CV cell infection by the Severe Acute Respiratory Disease-Coronavirus-2, with Food and Drug Administration-approved drugs to alleviate the detrimental effects of Coronavirus Disease-19 on the CV system.

Abstract
Calcium imaging is an important functional tool for analysing ion channels, transporters and pumps for drug screening in living cells. Depicted eukaryotic cell-free systems utilize microsomes, derived from the endoplasmic reticulum to incorporate the synthesized membrane proteins-like ion channels. Carboxylesterase is required to cleave the acetoxymethyl ester moiety of the chemical calcium indicators in order to ensure its immobility across the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Absence or an inadequate amount of carboxylesterase in the endoplasmic reticulum of different eukaryotic cells poses a hindrance to perform calcium imaging in microsomes. In this work, we try to overcome this drawback and adapt the cell-based calcium imaging principle to a cell-free protein synthesis platform. Carboxylesterase synthesized in a Spodoptera frugiperda Sf21 lysate translation system is established as a viable calcium imaging tool in microsomes. Cell-free synthesized carboxylesterase inside microsomes is validated with esterase and dye loading assays. Native proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum, such as ryanodine channels and calcium ATPase, are analysed. Cell-free synthesized transient receptor potential channels are used as model proteins to demonstrate the realization of this concept. Carboxylesterase, the key enzyme to handle ester-based dyes, is synthesized in microsomes using eukaryotic cell-free protein synthesis platform and established as a viable calcium imaging tool to analyze native and cell-free synthesized ion channels.![]()

Abstract
Lysosomal ion channels mediate ion flux from lysosomes and regulate membrane potential across the lysosomal membrane, which are essential for lysosome biogenesis, nutrient sensing, lysosome trafficking, lysosome enzyme activity, and cell membrane repair. As a cation channel, the transient receptor potential mucolipin 1 (TRPML1) channel is mainly expressed on lysosomes and late endosomes. Recently, the normal function of TRPML1 channels has been demonstrated to be important for the maintenance of cardiovascular and renal glomerular homeostasis and thereby involved in the pathogenesis of some cardiovascular and kidney diseases. In arterial myocytes, it has been found that Nicotinic Acid Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate (NAADP), an intracellular second messenger, can induce Ca2+ release through the lysosomal TRPML1 channel, leading to a global Ca2+ release response from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). In podocytes, it has been demonstrated that lysosomal TRPML1 channels control lysosome trafficking and exosome release, which contribute to the maintenance of podocyte functional integrity. The defect or functional deficiency of lysosomal TRPML1 channels has been shown to critically contribute to the initiation and development of some chronic degeneration or diseases in the cardiovascular system or kidneys. Here we briefly summarize the current evidence demonstrating the regulation of lysosomal TRPML1 channel activity and related signaling mechanisms. We also provide some insights into the canonical and noncanonical roles of TRPML1 channel dysfunction as a potential pathogenic mechanism for certain cardiovascular and kidney diseases and associated therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Two-pore segment channel 2 (TPC2) is a ubiquitously expressed, lysosomally targeted ion channel that aids in terminating autophagy and is inhibited upon its association with mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR). It is controversial whether TPC2 mediates lysosomal Ca2+ release or selectively conducts Na+ and whether the binding of nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) or phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate [PI(3,5)P2] is required for the activity of this ion channel. We show that TPC2 is required for intracellular Ca2+ signaling in response to NAADP or to mTOR inhibition by rapamycin. In pulmonary arterial myocytes, rapamycin and NAADP evoked global Ca2+ transients that were blocked by depletion of lysosomal Ca2+ stores. Preincubation of cells with high concentrations of rapamycin resulted in desensitization and blocked NAADP-evoked Ca2+ signals. Moreover, rapamycin and NAADP did not evoke discernable Ca2+ transients in myocytes derived from Tpcn2 knockout mice, which showed normal responses to other Ca2+-mobilizing signals. In HEK293 cells stably overexpressing human TPC2, shRNA-mediated knockdown of mTOR blocked rapamycin- and NAADP-evoked Ca2+ signals. Confocal imaging of a genetically encoded Ca2+ indicator fused to TPC2 demonstrated that rapamycin-evoked Ca2+ signals localized to lysosomes and were in close proximity to TPC2. Therefore, inactivation of mTOR may activate TPC2 and consequently lysosomal Ca2+ release.

Abstract
Since the discovery of the Ca(2+) mobilizing effects of the pyridine nucleotide metabolite, nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP), this molecule has been demonstrated to function as a Ca(2+) mobilizing intracellular messenger in a wide range of cell types. In this review, I will briefly summarize the distinct principles behind NAADP-mediated Ca(2+) signalling before going on to outline the role of this messenger in the physiology of specific cell types. Central to the discussion here is the finding that NAADP principally mobilizes Ca(2+) from acidic organelles such as lysosomes and it is this property that allows NAADP to play a unique role in intracellular Ca(2+) signalling. Lysosomes and related organelles are small Ca(2+) stores but importantly may also initiate a two-way dialogue with other Ca(2+) storage organelles to amplify Ca(2+) release, and may be strategically localized to influence localized Ca(2+) signalling microdomains. The study of NAADP signalling has created a new and fruitful focus on the lysosome and endolysosomal system as major players in calcium signalling and pathophysiology.

Abstract
Cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP), two intracellular Ca2+ mobilizing second messengers, have been recognized as a fundamental signaling mechanism regulating a variety of cell or organ functions in different biological systems. Here we reviewed the literature regarding these ADP-ribosylcyclase products in vascular cells with a major focus on their production, physiological roles, and related underlying mechanisms mediating their actions. In particular, several hot topics in this area of research are comprehensively discussed, which may help understand some of the controversial evidence provided by different studies. For example, some new models are emerging for the agonist receptor coupling of CD38 or ADP-ribosylcyclase and for the formation of an acidic microenvironment to facilitate the production of NAADP in vascular cells. We also summarized the evidence regarding the NAADP-mediated two-phase Ca2+ release with a slow Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release (CICR) and corresponding physiological relevance. The possibility of a permanent structural space between lysosomes and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), as well as the critical role of lysosome trafficking in phase 2 Ca2+ release in response to some agonists are also explored. With respect to the molecular targets of NAADP within cells, several possible candidates including SR ryanodine receptors (RyRs), lysosomal transient receptor potential-mucolipin 1 (TRP-ML1) and two pore channels (TPCs) are presented with supporting and opposing evidence. Finally, the possible role of NAADP-mediated regulation of lysosome function in autophagy and atherogenesis is discussed, which may indicate a new direction for further studies on the pathological roles of cADPR and NAADP in the vascular system.

Abstract
Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) is the most potent Ca(2+)-mobilizing messenger that releases Ca(2+) from endolysosomal organelles. Recent studies showed that NAADP-induced Ca(2+) release is mediated by the two-pore channels (TPCs) TPC1 and TPC2. However, the expression of TPCs and the NAADP-induced local Ca(2+) signals have not been examined in vascular smooth muscle. Here, we found that both TPC1 and TPC2 are expressed in rat pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMCs), with TPC1 being the major subtype. Application of membrane-permeant NAADP acetoxymethyl ester to PASMCs elicited a biphasic increase in global [Ca(2+)]i, which was independent of extracellular Ca(2+) and blocked by the NAADP antagonist Ned-19 or the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase inhibitor bafilomycin A1, indicating Ca(2+) release from acidic endolysosomal Ca(2+) stores. The Ca(2+) response was unaffected by xestospongin C but was partially blocked by ryanodine or thapsigargin. NAADP triggered heterogeneous local Ca(2+) signals, including a diffuse increase in cytosolic [Ca(2+)], Ca(2+) sparks, Ca(2+) bursts, and regenerative Ca(2+) release. The diffuse Ca(2+) increase and Ca(2+) bursts were ryanodine-insensitive, presumably arising from different endolysosomal sources. Ca(2+) sparks and regenerative Ca(2+) release were inhibited by ryanodine, consistent with cross-activation of loosely coupled ryanodine receptors. Moreover, Ca(2+) release stimulated by endothelin-1 was inhibited by Ned-19, ryanodine, or xestospongin C, suggesting that NAADP-mediated Ca(2+) signals interact with both ryanodine and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors during agonist stimulation. Our results show that NAADP mediates complex global and local Ca(2+) signals. Depending on the physiological stimuli, these diverse Ca(2+) signals may serve to regulate different cellular functions in PASMCs.

Abstract
It has been known for more than 60 years, and suspected for over 100, that alveolar hypoxia causes pulmonary vasoconstriction by means of mechanisms local to the lung. For the last 20 years, it has been clear that the essential sensor, transduction, and effector mechanisms responsible for hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) reside in the pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cell. The main focus of this review is the cellular and molecular work performed to clarify these intrinsic mechanisms and to determine how they are facilitated and inhibited by the extrinsic influences of other cells. Because the interaction of intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms is likely to shape expression of HPV in vivo, we relate results obtained in cells to HPV in more intact preparations, such as intact and isolated lungs and isolated pulmonary vessels. Finally, we evaluate evidence regarding the contribution of HPV to the physiological and pathophysiological processes involved in the transition from fetal to neonatal life, pulmonary gas exchange, high-altitude pulmonary edema, and pulmonary hypertension. Although understanding of HPV has advanced significantly, major areas of ignorance and uncertainty await resolution.

Abstract
CONTEXT Antimitogenic effects of estradiol on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) may be cardioprotective, and these effects are mediated by estrogen receptor-alpha-dependent and -independent mechanisms, with the latter involving the conversion of estradiol to 2-hydroxyestradiol/2-methoxyestradiol by CYP450. Because resveratrol inhibits CYP450 and is an estrogen-receptor-alpha antagonist, resveratrol may abrogate the antimitogenic effects of estradiol. OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to examine the interaction of pharmacologically relevant concentrations of resveratrol with estradiol, 2-hydroxyestradiol, and 2-methoxyestradiol in human female coronary artery VSMCs. METHODS AND RESULTS In human female coronary VSMCs, resveratrol (0.1-10 microm) alone did not influence serum-induced DNA or collagen synthesis or cell proliferation or migration; however, resveratrol abrogated the inhibitory effects of estradiol, but not 2-hydroxyestradiol or 2-methoxyestradiol, on these responses. Resveratrol also abrogated the inhibitory effects of estradiol on positive growth regulators (cyclin A, cyclin D, MAPK phosphorylation) and the stimulatory effects of estradiol on negative growth regulators (p21, p27). In microsomes and cells, dietarily relevant levels of resveratrol (0.001-1 microm) inhibited the metabolism of estradiol to 2-hydroxestradiol/2-methoxyestradiol. Propylpyrazoletriol (estrogen receptor-alpha agonist, 100 nmol/liter), but not diarylpropionitrile (estrogen receptor-beta agonist, 10 nmol/liter), inhibited VSMC mitogenesis, and this effect was blocked by resveratrol (5 micromol/liter). Higher concentrations (>25-50 microm) of resveratrol, never attainable in vivo, inhibited VSMC growth, an effect blocked by GW9662 (peroxisomal proliferator-activated receptor-gamma antagonist). CONCLUSION In conclusion, dietarily relevant levels of resveratrol abrogate the antimitogenic effects of estradiol by inhibiting CYP450-mediated estradiol metabolism and blocking estrogen receptor-alpha.

Abstract
Agonists such as those acting at muscarinic receptors are thought to induce contraction of smooth muscle primarily through inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production and release of Ca2+ from sarcoplasmic reticulum. However, the additional Ca2+-mobilizing messengers cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose (cADPR) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) may also be involved in this process, the former acting on the sarcoplasmic reticulum, the latter acting on lysosome-related organelles. In this study, we provide the first systematic analysis of the capacity of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, cADPR, and NAADP to cause contraction in smooth muscle. Using permeabilized guinea pig detrusor and taenia caecum, we show that all three Ca2+-mobilizing messengers cause contractions in both types of smooth muscle. We demonstrate that cADPR and NAADP play differential roles in mediating contraction in response to muscarinic receptor activation, with a sizeable role for NAADP and acidic calcium stores in detrusor muscle but not in taenia caecum, underscoring the heterogeneity of smooth muscle signal transduction systems. Two-pore channel proteins (TPCs) have recently been shown to be key components of the NAADP receptor. We show that contractile responses to NAADP were completely abolished, and agonist-evoked contractions were reduced and now became independent of acidic calcium stores in Tpcn2−/− mouse detrusor smooth muscle. Our findings provide the first evidence that TPC proteins mediate a key NAADP-regulated tissue response brought about by agonist activation of a cell surface receptor.

Abstract
The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of smooth muscles presents many intriguing facets and questions concerning its roles, especially as these change with development, disease, and modulation of physiological activity. The SR's function was originally perceived to be synthetic and then that of a Ca store for the contractile proteins, acting as a Ca amplification mechanism as it does in striated muscles. Gradually, as investigators have struggled to find a convincing role for Ca-induced Ca release in many smooth muscles, a role in controlling excitability has emerged. This is the Ca spark/spontaneous transient outward current coupling mechanism which reduces excitability and limits contraction. Release of SR Ca occurs in response to inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, Ca, and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate, and depletion of SR Ca can initiate Ca entry, the mechanism of which is being investigated but seems to involve Stim and Orai as found in nonexcitable cells. The contribution of the elemental Ca signals from the SR, sparks and puffs, to global Ca signals, i.e., Ca waves and oscillations, is becoming clearer but is far from established. The dynamics of SR Ca release and uptake mechanisms are reviewed along with the control of luminal Ca. We review the growing list of the SR's functions that still includes Ca storage, contraction, and relaxation but has been expanded to encompass Ca homeostasis, generating local and global Ca signals, and contributing to cellular microdomains and signaling in other organelles, including mitochondria, lysosomes, and the nucleus. For an integrated approach, a review of aspects of the SR in health and disease and during development and aging are also included. While the sheer versatility of smooth muscle makes it foolish to have a "one model fits all" approach to this subject, we have tried to synthesize conclusions wherever possible.

Abstract
Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) is a potent intracellular Ca2+ signalling second messenger, but the mechanism of NAADP-induced Ca2+ release is still poorly understood. The present study tested the hypothesis that NAADP induces Ca2+ release from the lysosomal store via a TRP-ML1 (transient receptor potential-mucolipin 1)-mediated Ca2+ release channel in coronary arterial myocytes (CAMs). RT-PCR and Western blot analyses demonstrated that TRP-ML1 was present in CAMs, and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) detection revealed that the TRP-ML1 was closely associated with some lysosomal proteins in these CAMs. ET-1, a well-known NAADP stimulator, was found to induce a local Ca2+ burst from lysosomes followed by a global Ca2+ release. This lysosome-associated Ca2+ release was significantly inhibited in the TRP-ML1 siRNA pre-treated CAMs by 46.8 ± 12.6% in the local Ca2+ burst and 73.3 ± 14.9% in the global Ca2+ wave. In the reconstituted lysosomal channels from CAMs, NAADP activated Ca2+ release channels at concentrations of 1–1000 nM, but neither activators (1 μM IP3, 5 μM Rya) nor blockers (100 μM 2-APB, 50 μM Rya) of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release channels had effect on the channel activity. Moreover, TRP-ML1 gene silencing reduced this NAADP-sensitive Ca2+ release channel activity in lysosomes by 71.5 ± 18.5%. Immunoprecipitation or blockade of TRP-ML1 by anti-TRP-ML1 antibodies almost abolished NAADP-induced activation of lysosomal Ca2+ channels (to 14.0 ± 4.4% of control). These results for the first time provide direct evidence that an NAADP-sensitive Ca2+ release channel is characteristic of TRP-ML1 channels.

Abstract
ADP-ribosyl cyclase (ADPR cyclase) and ryanodine receptors (RyR) participate in calcium transduction in isolated afferent arterioles. We hypothesized that this signaling pathway is activated by ETA and ETB receptors in the renal vasculature to mediate vasoconstriction in vivo. To test this, we measured acute renal blood flow (RBF) responses to ET-1 in anesthetized rats and mice in the presence and absence of functional ADPR cyclase and/or RyR. Inhibitors of ADPR cyclase (nicotinamide) or RyR (ruthenium red) reduced RBF responses to ET-1 by 44% (P < 0.04 for both) in Sprague-Dawley rats. Mice lacking the predominant form of ADPR cyclase (CD38-/-) had RBF responses to ET-1 that were 47% weaker than those seen in wild-type mice (P = 0.01). Selective ETA receptor stimulation (ET-1+BQ788) produced decreases in RBF that were attenuated by 43 and 56% by nicotinamide or ruthenium red, respectively (P < 0.02 for both). ADPR cyclase or RyR inhibition also reduced vasoconstrictor effects of the ETB receptor agonist sarafotoxin 6c (S6c; 77 and 54%, respectively, P < 0.02 for both). ETB receptor stimulation by ET-1 + the ETA receptor antagonist BQ123 elicited responses that were attenuated by 59 and 60% by nicotinamide and ruthenium red, respectively (P < 0.01 for both). Nicotinamide attenuated RBF responses to S6c by 54% during inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis (P = 0.001). We conclude that in the renal microcirculation in vivo 1) ET-1-induced vasoconstriction is mediated by ADPR cyclase and RyR; 2) both ETA and ETB receptors activate this pathway; and 3) ADPR cyclase participates in ETB receptor signaling independently of NO.

Abstract
Regulation of intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in airway smooth muscle (ASM) during agonist stimulation involves sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) release and reuptake. The sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) is key to replenishment of SR Ca(2+) stores. We examined regulation of SERCA in porcine ASM: our hypothesis was that the regulatory protein phospholamban (PLN) and the calmodulin (CaM)-CaM kinase (CaMKII) pathway (both of which are known to regulate SERCA in cardiac muscle) play a role. In porcine ASM microsomes, we examined the expression and extent of PLN phosphorylation after pharmacological inhibition of CaM (with W-7) vs. CaMKII (with KN-62/KN-93) and found that PLN is phosphorylated by CaMKII. In parallel experiments using enzymatically dissociated single ASM cells loaded with the Ca(2+) indicator fluo 3 and imaged using fluorescence microscopy, we measured the effects of PLN small interfering RNA, W-7, and KN-62 on [Ca(2+)](i) responses to ACh and direct SR stimulation. PLN small interfering RNA slowed the rate of fall of [Ca(2+)](i) transients to 1 microM ACh, as did W-7 and KN-62. The two inhibitors additionally slowed reuptake in the absence of PLN. In other cells, preexposure to W-7 or KN-62 did not prevent initiation of ACh-induced [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations (which were previously shown to result from repetitive SR Ca(2+) release/reuptake). However, when ACh-induced [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations reached steady state, subsequent exposure to W7 or KN-62 decreased oscillation frequency and amplitude and slowed the fall time of [Ca(2+)](i) transients, suggesting SERCA inhibition. Exposure to W-7 completely abolished ongoing ACh-induced [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations in some cells. Preexposure to W-7 or KN-62 did not affect caffeine-induced SR Ca(2+) release, indicating that ryanodine receptor channels were not directly inhibited. These data indicate that, in porcine ASM, the CaM-CaMKII pathway regulates SR Ca(2+) reuptake, potentially through altered PLN phosphorylation.

Abstract
In afferent arterioles, the signaling events that lead to an increase in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) and initiation of vascular contraction are increasingly being delineated. We have recently studied angiotensin II (ANG II)-mediated effects on sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) mobilization of Ca2+ and the role of superoxide and cyclic adenosine diphosphoribose in these processes. In the current study we investigated the participation of transient receptor potential canonical channels (TRPC) and a Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) in Ca2+ entry mechanisms. Afferent arterioles, isolated with the magnetized polystyrene bead method, were loaded with fura-2 to measure [Ca2+]i ratiometrically. We observed that the Ca2+-dependent chloride channel blocker niflumic acid (10 and 50 μ M) affects neither the peak nor plateau [Ca2+]i response to ANG II. Arterioles were pretreated with ryanodine (100 μM) and TMB-8 to block SR mobilization via the ryanodine receptor and inositol trisphosphate receptor, respectively. The peak [Ca2+]i response to ANG II was reduced by 40%. Addition of 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borane to block TRPC-mediated Ca2+ entry inhibited the peak [Ca2+]i ANG II response by 80% and the plateau by 74%. Flufenamic acid (FFA; 50 μM), which stimulates TRPC6, caused a sustained increase of [Ca2+]i of 146 nM. This response was unaffected by diltiazem or nifedipine. KB-R7943 (at the low concentration of 10 μM) inhibits reverse (but not forward) mode NCX. KB-R7943 decreased the peak [Ca2+]i response to ANG II by 48% and to FFA by 38%. We conclude that TRPC6 and reverse-mode NCX may be important Ca2+ entry pathways in afferent arterioles.

Abstract
Contractility of airway smooth muscle requires elevation of intracellular calcium concentration. Under resting conditions, airway smooth muscle cells maintain a relatively low intracellular calcium concentration, and activation of the surface receptors by contractile agonists results in an elevation of intracellular calcium, culminating in contraction of the cell. The pattern of elevation of intracellular calcium brought about by agonists is a dynamic process and involves the coordinated activities of ion channels located in the plasma membrane and the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Among the signaling molecules involved in this dynamic calcium regulation in airway smooth muscle cells are inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and cyclic ADP-ribose, which mobilize calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum by acting via the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and ryanodine receptors, respectively. In addition, calcium influx from the extracellular space is critical for the repletion of the intracellular calcium stores during activation of the cells by agonists. Calcium influx can occur via voltage- and receptor-gated channels in the plasma membrane, as well as by influx that is triggered by depletion of the intracellular stores (i.e., store-operated calcium entry mechanism). Transient receptor potential proteins appear to mediate the calcium influx via receptor- and store-operated channels. Recent studies have shown that proinflammatory cytokines regulate the expression and activity of the pathways involved in intracellular calcium regulation, thereby contributing to airway smooth muscle cell hyperresponsiveness. In this review, we will discuss the specific roles of cyclic ADP-ribose/ryanodine receptor channels and transient receptor potential channels in the regulation of intracellular calcium in airway smooth muscle cells.

Abstract
Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) has recently been shown to act as a second messenger controlling intracellular Ca(2+) responses in mammalian cells. Many questions remain regarding this signaling pathway, including the role of the ryanodine receptor (RyR) in NAADP-induced Ca(2+) transients. Furthermore, the exact metabolic pathway responsible for the synthesis of NAADP in vivo has not been determined. Here, we demonstrate that the NAADP mediated Ca(2+) release system is present in human myometrial cells. We also demonstrate that human myometrial cells use the NAADP second messenger system to generate intracellular Ca(2+) transients in response to histamine. It has been proposed in the past that the NAADP system in mammalian cells is dependent on the presence of functional RyRs. Here, we observed that the histamine-induced Ca(2+) transients are dependent on both the NAADP and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate signaling pathways but are independent of RyRs. The enzyme CD38 has been shown to catalyze the synthesis of NAADP in vitro by the base-exchange reaction. Furthermore, it has been proposed that this enzyme is responsible for the intracellular generation of NAADP in vivo. Using CD38 knockout mice, we observed that both the basal and histamine stimulated levels of NAADP are independent of CD38 and the base-exchange reaction. Our group is the first to demonstrate that NAADP is a second messenger for histamine-elicited Ca(2+) transients in human myometrial cells. Furthermore, the NAADP mediated mechanism in mammalian cells can be independent of RyRs and CD38. Our data provides novel insights into the understanding of the mechanism of action and metabolism of this new second messenger system.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca2+ entry plays an important role in Ca2+ homeostasis in cells but the mechanisms of control of these channels are not completely understood. We describe an investigation of the role of the CD38-cyclic-ADP-ribose (cADPR)-ryanodine-channel (RyR) signaling pathway in store-operated Ca2+ entry in human smooth muscle. We observed that human myometrial cells have a functional store-operated Ca2+ entry mechanism. Furthermore, we observed the presence of transient receptor potential 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6 ion channels in human myometrial cells. Store-operated Ca2+ transient was inhibited by at least 50-70% by several inhibitors of the RyR, including ryanodine (10 microM), dantrolene (10 microM), and ruthenium red (10 microM). Furthermore, the cell permeable inhibitor of the cADPR-system, 8-Br-cADPR (100 microM), is a potent inhibitor of the store-operated entry, decreasing the store operated entry by 80%. Pre-incubation of cells with 100 microM cADPR and the hydrolysis-resistant cADPR analog 3-deaza-cADPR (50 microM), but not with ADP-ribose (ADPR) leads to a 1.6-fold increase in the store-operated Ca2+ transient. In addition, we observed that nicotinamide (1-10 mM), an inhibitor of cADPR synthesis, also leads to inhibition of the store-operated Ca2+ transient by 50-80%. Finally, we observed that the transient receptor potential channels, RyR, and CD38 can be co-immunoprecipitated, indicating that they interact in vivo. Our observations clearly implicate the CD38-cADPR-ryanodine signaling pathway in the regulation of store-operated Ca2+ entry in human smooth muscle cells.

Abstract
The cellular mechanisms mediating nitric oxide (NO) modulation of the inhibitory transmission in the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) remain unclear, even though this could be extremely important for various physiological and pathological processes. Specifically, in the NTS NO-evoked glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) release might contribute to pathological hypertension. In cultured rat brainstem slices, NTS GABAergic neurons were targeted using an adenoviral vector to express enhanced green fluorescent protein and studied with a combination of patch clamp and confocal microscopy. Low nanomolar concentrations of NO increased intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in somata, dendrites, and putative axons of GABAergic neurons, with axons being the most sensitive compartment. This effect was cGMP mediated and not related to depolarization or indirect presynaptic effects on glutamatergic transmission. Blockade of the cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose (cADPR)/ryanodine-sensitive stores but not the inositol triphosphate-sensitive stores, inhibited NO effect. Since cADPR/ryanodine-sensitive stores are implicated in the Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release, NO can be expected to potentiate GABA release. In support of this notion, a cADPR antagonist abolished the NO-induced potentiation of GABAergic inhibitory postsynaptic potentials in the NTS. Thus, the NO-cGMP-cADPR-Ca2+ pathway, previously described in sea urchin eggs, also operates in mammalian GABAergic neurons. Potentiation of GABA release by NO may have implications for numerous brain functions.

Abstract
It is generally accepted that the mobilisation of intracellular Ca2+ stores plays a pivotal role in the regulation of arterial smooth muscle function, paradoxically during both contraction and relaxation. However, the spatiotemporal pattern of different Ca2+ signals that elicit such responses may also contribute to the regulation of, for example, differential gene expression. These findings, among others, demonstrate the importance of discrete spatiotemporal Ca2+ signalling patterns and the mechanisms that underpin them. Of fundamental importance in this respect is the realisation that different Ca2+ storing organelles may be selected by the discrete or coordinated actions of multiple Ca2+ mobilising messengers. When considering such messengers, it is generally accepted that sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) stores may be mobilised by the ubiquitous messenger inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate. However, relatively little attention has been paid to the role of Ca2+ mobilising pyridine nucleotides in arterial smooth muscle, namely, cyclic adenosine diphosphate-ribose (cADPR) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP). This review will therefore focus on these novel mechanisms of calcium signalling and their likely therapeutic potential.

Abstract
The sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (SR/ER) is the primary storage and release site of intracellular calcium (Ca2+) in many excitable cells. The SR is a tubular network, which in smooth muscle (SM) cells distributes close to cellular periphery (superficial SR) and in deeper aspects of the cell (deep SR). Recent attention has focused on the regulation of cell function by the superficial SR, which can act as a buffer and also as a regulator of membrane channels and transporters. Ca2+ is released from the SR via two types of ionic channels [ryanodine- and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-gated], whereas accumulation from thecytoplasm occurs exclusively by an energy-dependent sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase pump (SERCA). Within the SR, Ca2+ is bound to various storage proteins. Emerging evidence also suggests that the perinuclear portion of the SR may play an important role in nuclear transcription. In this review, we detail the pharmacology of agents that alter the functions of Ca2+ release channels and of SERCA. We describe their use and selectivity and indicate the concentrations used in investigating various SM preparations. Important aspects of cell regulation and excitation-contractile activity coupling in SM have been uncovered through the use of such activators and inhibitors of processes that determine SR function. Likewise, they were instrumental in the recent finding of an interaction of the SR with other cellular organelles such as mitochondria. Thus, an appreciation of the pharmacology and selectivity of agents that interfere with SR function in SM has greatly assisted in unveiling the multifaceted nature of the SR.

Abstract
SUMMARY
In vascular smooth muscle (VSM) of Squalus acanthias, endothelin-1(ET-1) signals via the ETB receptor. In both shark and mammalian VSM, ET-1 induces a rise in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration([Ca2+]i) via activation of the inositol trisphosphate (IP3) receptor (IP3R) and subsequent release of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). IP3R-mediated release of SR Ca2+ causes calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) via the ryanodine receptor (RyR), which can be sensitized by cyclic adeninediphosphate ribose (cADPR). cADPR is synthesized from NAD+ by a membrane-bound bifunctional enzyme, ADPR cyclase. We have previously shown that the antagonists of the RyR, Ruthenium Red, high concentrations of ryanodine and 8-Br cADPR, diminish the[Ca2+]i response to ET-1 in shark VSM. To investigate how ET-1 might influence the activity of the ADPR cyclase, we employed inhibitors of the cyclase. To explore the possibility that ET-1-induced production of superoxide (O2.-) might activate the cyclase, we used an inhibitor of NAD(P)H oxidase (NOX), DPI and a scavenger of O2.-, TEMPOL. Anterior mesenteric artery VSM was loaded with fura-2AM to measure [Ca2+]i. In Ca2+-free shark Ringers, ET-1 increased[Ca2+]i by 104±8 nmol l-1. The VSM ADPR cyclase inhibitors, nicotinamide and Zn2+, diminished the response by 62% and 72%, respectively. Both DPI and TEMPOL reduced the response by 63%. The combination of the IP3R antagonists, 2-APB or TMB-8, with DPI or TEMPOL further reduced the response by 83%. We show for the first time that in shark VSM, inhibition of the ADPR cyclase reduces the[Ca2+]i response to ET-1 and that superoxide may be involved in the activation of the cyclase.

Abstract
ANG II induces vasoconstriction, at least in part, by stimulating NADPH oxidase and generating reactive oxygen species. ANG II also induces heme oxygenase activity, and bilirubin, a product of such activity, possesses antioxidant properties. We hypothesized that bilirubin, because of its antioxidant properties, may reduce the pressor and prooxidant effects of ANG II. Our in vivo studies used the hyperbilirubinemic Gunn rat which is deficient in the enzyme uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase, the latter enabling the excretion of bilirubin into bile. ANG II (0.5 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1)) or saline vehicle was administered by osmotic minipump to control and Gunn rats for 4 wk. The rise in systolic blood pressure induced by ANG II, as observed in control rats, was markedly reduced in Gunn rats, the latter approximately 50% less at 3 and 4 wk after the initiation of ANG II infusion. The chronic administration of ANG II also impaired endothelium-dependent relaxation responses in control rats but not in Gunn rats. As assessed by the tetrahydrobiopterin/dihydrobiopterin ratio, ANG II induced oxidative stress in the aorta in control rats but not in Gunn rats. Heightened generation of superoxide anion in aortic rings in ANG II-infused rats and by vascular smooth muscle cells exposed to ANG II was normalized by bilirubin in vitro. We conclude that the pressor and prooxidant effects of ANG II are attenuated in the hyperbilirubinemic Gunn rat, an effect which, we speculate, may reflect, at least in part, the scavenging of superoxide anion by bilirubin.

Abstract
In mammals, endothelin receptors are sub-classified into ET(A) receptors (ET(A)R), which are purely constrictive in vascular smooth muscle (VSM), and ET(B)R, which may produce constriction in VSM or dilatation by stimulating the production of nitric oxide (NO) from endothelial cells. In contrast, previous studies suggested that shark VSM is stimulated exclusively by ET(B)R. The Ca(2+) signaling pathways utilized by shark VSM in response to stimulation by endothelin-1 (ET-1) have not previously been investigated. We measured cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in fura-2-loaded VSM of anterior mesenteric artery of Squalus acanthias and show that the ET(B)R agonists IRL 1620 and sarafotoxin S6c (SRX) increase [Ca(2+)](i) in VSM to the same extent as ET-1 and ET(B)R appears to be the only ETR subtype in sharks. To investigate the participation of the inositol trisphosphate (IP(3)) receptors (IP(3)R), we utilized two inhibitors of the mammalian IP(3)R, TMB-8 and 2-APB. In Ca(2+)-free Ringer, these agents inhibit the response to ET(B)R agonist stimulation by 71%. The ryanodine-sensitive receptor (RyR) may be activated by low concentrations of ryanodine, by abrupt local increases of [Ca(2+)](i), (calcium-induced calcium release) or by cyclic adeninediphosphate ribose (cADPR). We employed three inhibitors of activation of the RyR, Ruthenium Red, 8-Br cADPR and high concentrations of ryanodine; these agents blocked the [Ca(2+)](i) response to ET(B)R agonist stimulation by a mean of 39%. These data show for the first time that in VSM of the shark, ET(B)R activation stimulates both IP(3)R and RyR, and that cADPR is involved in RyR activation.

Abstract
Cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose (cADPR) is a naturally occurring cyclic nucleotide and represents a novel class of endogenous Ca(2+) messengers implicated in the regulation of the gating properties of ryanodine receptors (RyRs). This action of cADPR occurs independently from the inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) receptor. The regulation of intracellular Ca(2+) release is a fundamental element of cellular Ca(2+) homeostasis since a number of smooth muscle functions (tone, proliferation, apoptosis, and gene expression) are modulated by intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)). There has been a surge in the efforts aimed at understanding the mechanisms of cADPR-mediated Ca(2+) mobilization and its impact on smooth muscle function. This review summarizes the proposed roles of cADPR in the regulation of smooth muscle tone.

Abstract
ANG II induces a rise in cytosolic Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)) in vascular smooth muscle (VSM) cells via inositol trisphosphate receptor (IP(3)R) activation and release of Ca(2+) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). The Ca(2+) signal is augmented by calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) and by cyclic adeninediphosphate ribose (cADPR), which sensitizes the ryanodine-sensitive receptor (RyR) to Ca(2+) to further amplify CICR. cADPR is synthesized from beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) by a membrane-bound bifunctional enzyme, ADPR cyclase. To investigate the possibility that ANG II activates the ADPR cyclase of afferent arterioles, we used inhibitors of the IP(3)R, RyR, and ADPR cyclase. Afferent arterioles were isolated from rat kidney with the magnetized microsphere and sieving technique and loaded with fura-2 to measure [Ca(2+)](i). In Ca(2+)-containing buffer, ANG II increased [Ca(2+)](i) by 125 +/- 10 nM. In the presence of the IP(3)R antagonists TMB-8 and 2-APB, the peak responses to ANG II were reduced by 74 and 81%, respectively. The specific antagonist of cADPR 8-Br ADPR and a high concentration of ryanodine (100 microM) inhibited the ANG II-induced increases in [Ca(2+)](i) by 75 and 69%, respectively. Nicotinamide and Zn(2+) are known inhibitors of the VSM ADPR cyclase. Nicotinamide diminished the [Ca(2+)](i) response to ANG II by 66%. In calcium-free buffer, Zn(2+) reduced the ANG II response by 68%. Simultaneous blockade of the IP(3) and cADPR pathways diminished the [Ca(2+)](i) response to ANG II by 83%. We conclude that ANG II initiates Ca(2+) mobilization from the SR in afferent arterioles via the classic IP(3)R pathway and that ANG II may lead to activation of the ADPR cyclase to form cADPR, which, via its action on the RyR, substantially augments the Ca(2+) response.

Abstract
Previous studies on pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells have shown that nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) evokes highly localized intracellular Ca(2+) signals by mobilizing thapsigargin-insensitive stores. Such localized Ca(2+) signals may initiate global Ca(2+) waves and contraction of the myocytes through the recruitment of ryanodine receptors on the sarcoplasmic reticulum via Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release. Here we show that NAADP evokes localized Ca(2+) signals by mobilizing a bafilomycin A1-sensitive, lysosome-related Ca(2+) store. These lysosomal stores facilitate this process by co-localizing with a portion of the sarcoplasmic reticulum expressing ryanodine receptors to comprise a highly specialized trigger zone for NAADP-dependent Ca(2+) signaling by the vasoconstrictor hormone, endothelin-1. These findings further advance our understanding of how the spatial organization of discrete, organellar Ca(2+) stores may underpin the generation of differential Ca(2+) signaling patterns by different Ca(2+)-mobilizing messengers.

Abstract
Premature birth accounts for the majority of fetal morbidity and mortality in the developed world and is disproportionately represented in some populations, such as African Americans in the United States. The costs associated with prematurity are staggering in both monetary and human terms. Present therapeutic approaches for the treatment of labor leading to preterm delivery are inadequate and our understanding of the regulation of myometrial smooth muscle contraction-relaxation is incomplete. The ability of nitric oxide to relax smooth muscle has led to an interest in employing nitric oxide-donors in the treatment of preterm labor. Fundamental differences exist, however, in the regulation of uterine smooth muscle relaxation and that of other smooth muscles and constitute a conundrum in our understanding. We review the evidence that nitric oxide-mediated relaxation of myometrial smooth muscle, unlike vascular or gastrointestinal smooth muscle, is independent of global elevation of cyclic guanosine 5'-monophosphate. Applying our current understanding of microdomain signaling and taking clues from genomic studies of pregnancy, we offer a framework in which to view the apparent conundrum and suggest testable hypotheses of uterine relaxation signaling that can explain the mechanistic distinctions. We propose that understanding these mechanistic distinctions in myometrium will reveal molecular targets that are unique and thus may be explored as therapeutic targets in the development of new uterine smooth muscle-specific tocolytics.

Abstract
We have demonstrated recently (Mitchell, K. J., Pinton, P., Varadi, A., Tacchetti, C., Ainscow, E. K., Pozzan, T., Rizzuto, R., and Rutter, G. A. (2001) J. Cell Biol. 155, 41-51) that ryanodine receptors (RyR) are present on insulin-containing secretory vesicles. Here we show that pancreatic islets and derived beta-cell lines express type I and II, but not type III, RyRs. Purified by subcellular fractionation and membrane immuno-isolation, dense core secretory vesicles were found to possess a similar level of type I RyR immunoreactivity as Golgi/endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes but substantially less RyR II than the latter. Monitored in cells expressing appropriately targeted aequorins, dantrolene, an inhibitor of RyR I channels, elevated free Ca(2+) concentrations in the secretory vesicle compartment from 40.1 +/- 6.7 to 90.4 +/- 14.8 microm (n = 4, p < 0.01), while having no effect on ER Ca(2+) concentrations. Furthermore, nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP), a novel Ca(2+)-mobilizing agent, decreased dense core secretory vesicle but not ER free Ca(2+) concentrations in permeabilized MIN6 beta-cells, and flash photolysis of caged NAADP released Ca(2+) from a thapsigargin-insensitive Ca(2+) store in single MIN6 cells. Because dantrolene strongly inhibited glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (from 3.07 +/- 0.51-fold stimulation to no significant glucose effect; n = 3, p < 0.01), we conclude that RyR I-mediated Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release from secretory vesicles, possibly potentiated by NAADP, is essential for the activation of insulin secretion.

Abstract
In artery smooth muscle, adenylyl cyclase-coupled receptors such as beta-adrenoceptors evoke Ca(2+) signals, which open Ca(2+)-activated potassium (BK(Ca)) channels in the plasma membrane. Thus, blood pressure may be lowered, in part, through vasodilation due to membrane hyperpolarization. The Ca(2+) signal is evoked via ryanodine receptors (RyRs) in sarcoplasmic reticulum proximal to the plasma membrane. We show here that cyclic adenosine diphosphate-ribose (cADPR), by activating RyRs, mediates, in part, hyperpolarization and vasodilation by beta-adrenoceptors. Thus, intracellular dialysis of cADPR increased the cytoplasmic Ca(2+) concentration proximal to the plasma membrane in isolated arterial smooth muscle cells and induced a concomitant membrane hyperpolarization. Smooth muscle hyperpolarization mediated by cADPR, by beta-adrenoceptors, and by cAMP, respectively, was abolished by chelating intracellular Ca(2+) and by blocking RyRs, cADPR, and BK(Ca) channels with ryanodine, 8-amino-cADPR, and iberiotoxin, respectively. The cAMP-dependent protein kinase A antagonist N-(2-[p-bromocinnamylamino]ethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide hydrochloride (H89) blocked hyperpolarization by isoprenaline and cAMP, respectively, but not hyperpolarization by cADPR. Thus, cADPR acts as a downstream element in this signaling cascade. Importantly, antagonists of cADPR and BK(Ca) channels, respectively, inhibited beta-adrenoreceptor-induced artery dilation. We conclude, therefore, that relaxation of arterial smooth muscle by adenylyl cyclase-coupled receptors results, in part, from a cAMP-dependent and protein kinase A-dependent increase in cADPR synthesis, and subsequent activation of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) release via RyRs, which leads to activation of BK(Ca) channels and membrane hyperpolarization.

Abstract
Ca2+ transport was investigated in vesicles of sarcoplasmic reticulum subfractionated from bovine main pulmonary artery and porcine gastric antrum using digitonin binding and zonal density gradient centrifugation. Gradient fractions recovered at 15-33% sucrose were studied as the sarcoplasmic reticulum component using Fluo-3 fluorescence or 45Ca2+ Millipore filtration. Thapsigargin blocked active Ca2+ uptake and induced a slow Ca2+ release from actively loaded vesicles. Unidirectional 45Ca2+ efflux from passively loaded vesicles showed multicompartmental kinetics. The time course of an initial fast component could not be quantitatively measured with the sampling method. The slow release had a half-time of several minutes. Both components were inhibited by 20 microM ruthenium red and 10 mM Mg2+. Caffeine, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, ATP, and diltiazem accelerated the slow component. A Ca2+ release component activated by ryanodine or cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose was resolved with Fluo-3. Comparison of tissue responses showed that the fast Ca2+ release was significantly smaller and more sensitive to inhibition by Mg2+ and ruthenium red in arterial vesicles. They released more Ca2+ in response to inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and were more sensitive to activation by cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose. Ryanodine and caffeine, in contrast, were more effective in gastric antrum. In each tissue, the fraction of the Ca2+ store released by sequential application of caffeine and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate depended on the order applied and was additive. The results indicate that sarcoplasmic reticulum purified from arterial and gastric smooth muscle represents vesicle subpopulations that retain functional Ca2+ channels that reflect tissue-specific pharmacological modulation. The relationship of these differences to physiological responses has not been determined.
