Spatiotemporal Control of Vascular Ca V1.2 by α1 C S1928 Phosphorylation. Circ Res 2022; 131:1018-1033. [PMID: 36345826 PMCID: PMC9722584 DOI: 10.1161/circresaha.122.321479] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2022] [Revised: 10/13/2022] [Accepted: 10/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND L-type CaV1.2 channels undergo cooperative gating to regulate cell function, although mechanisms are unclear. This study tests the hypothesis that phosphorylation of the CaV1.2 pore-forming subunit α1C at S1928 mediates vascular CaV1.2 cooperativity during diabetic hyperglycemia. METHODS A multiscale approach including patch-clamp electrophysiology, super-resolution nanoscopy, proximity ligation assay, calcium imaging' pressure myography, and Laser Speckle imaging was implemented to examine CaV1.2 cooperativity, α1C clustering, myogenic tone, and blood flow in human and mouse arterial myocytes/vessels. RESULTS CaV1.2 activity and cooperative gating increase in arterial myocytes from patients with type 2 diabetes and type 1 diabetic mice, and in wild-type mouse arterial myocytes after elevating extracellular glucose. These changes were prevented in wild-type cells pre-exposed to a PKA inhibitor or cells from knock-in S1928A but not S1700A mice. In addition, α1C clustering at the surface membrane of wild-type, but not wild-type cells pre-exposed to PKA or P2Y11 inhibitors and S1928A arterial myocytes, was elevated upon hyperglycemia and diabetes. CaV1.2 spatial and gating remodeling correlated with enhanced arterial myocyte Ca2+ influx and contractility and in vivo reduction in arterial diameter and blood flow upon hyperglycemia and diabetes in wild-type but not S1928A cells/mice. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that PKA-dependent S1928 phosphorylation promotes the spatial reorganization of vascular α1C into "superclusters" upon hyperglycemia and diabetes. This triggers CaV1.2 activity and cooperativity, directly impacting vascular reactivity. The results may lay the foundation for developing therapeutics to correct CaV1.2 and arterial function during diabetic hyperglycemia.

Abstract
TCR stimulation triggers Ca2+ signals that are critical for T cell function and immunity. Several pore-forming α and auxiliary β subunits of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (VGCC) were reported in T cells, but their mechanism of activation remains elusive and their contribution to Ca2+ signaling in T cells is controversial. We here identify CaVβ1, encoded by Cacnb1, as a regulator of T cell function. Cacnb1 deletion enhances apoptosis and impairs the clonal expansion of T cells after lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection. By contrast, Cacnb1 is dispensable for T cell proliferation, cytokine production and Ca2+ signaling. Using patch clamp electrophysiology and Ca2+ recordings, we are unable to detect voltage-gated Ca2+ currents or Ca2+ influx in human and mouse T cells upon depolarization with or without prior TCR stimulation. mRNAs of several VGCC α1 subunits are detectable in human (CaV3.3, CaV3.2) and mouse (CaV2.1) T cells, but they lack transcription of many 5' exons, likely resulting in N-terminally truncated and non-functional proteins. Our findings demonstrate that although CaVβ1 regulates T cell function, these effects are independent of VGCC channel activity.

Abstract
The publication of papers containing data obtained with suboptimal rigor in the experimental design and choice of key reagents, such as antibodies, can result in a lack of reproducibility and generate controversy that can both needlessly divert resources and, in some cases, damage public perception of the scientific enterprise. This exemplary paper by Buonarati et al. (2018)1 shows how a previously published, potentially important paper on calcium channel regulation falls short of the necessary mark, and aims to resolve the resulting controversy.

Abstract
Cigarette smoke, including secondhand smoke (SHS), has significant detrimental vascular effects, but its effects on myogenic tone of small resistance arteries and the underlying mechanisms are understudied. Although it is apparent that SHS contributes to endothelial dysfunction, much less is known about how this toxicant alters arterial myocyte contraction, leading to alterations in myogenic tone. The study's goal is to determine the effects of SHS on mesenteric arterial myocyte contractility and excitability. C57BL/6J male mice were randomly assigned to either filtered air (FA) or SHS (6 h/d, 5 d/wk) exposed groups for a 4, 8, or 12-weeks period. Third and fourth-order mesenteric arteries and arterial myocytes were acutely isolated and evaluated with pressure myography and patch clamp electrophysiology, respectively. Myogenic tone was found to be elevated in mesenteric arteries from mice exposed to SHS for 12 wk but not for 4 or 8 wk. These results were correlated with an increase in L-type Ca2+ channel activity in mesenteric arterial myocytes after 12 wk of SHS exposure. Moreover, 12 wk SHS exposed arterial myocytes have reduced total potassium channel current density, which correlates with a depolarized membrane potential (Vm). These results suggest that SHS exposure induces alterations in key ionic conductances that modulate arterial myocyte contractility and myogenic tone. Thus, chronic exposure to an environmentally relevant concentration of SHS impairs mesenteric arterial myocyte electrophysiology and myogenic tone, which may contribute to increased blood pressure and risks of developing vascular complications due to passive exposure to cigarette smoke.

Abstract
Over the last two decades there has been significant progress towards understanding the neural substrates that underlie age-related cognitive decline. Although many of the exact molecular and cellular mechanisms have yet to be fully understood, there is consensus that alterations in neuronal calcium homeostasis contribute to age-related deficits in learning and memory. Furthermore, it is thought that the age-related changes in calcium homeostasis are driven, at least in part, by changes in calcium channel expression. In this review, we focus on the role of a specific class of calcium channels: L-type voltage-gated calcium channels (LVGCCs). We provide the reader with a general introduction to voltage-gated calcium channels, followed by a more detailed description of LVGCCs and how they serve to regulate neuronal excitability via the post burst afterhyperpolarization (AHP). We conclude by reviewing studies that link the slow component of the AHP to learning and memory, and discuss how age-related increases in LVGCC expression may underlie cognitive decline by mediating a decrease in neuronal excitability.

Abstract
The L-type Ca2+ channel CaV 1.2 governs gene expression, cardiac contraction, and neuronal activity. Binding of α-actinin to the IQ motif of CaV 1.2 supports its surface localization and postsynaptic targeting in neurons. We report a bi-functional mechanism that restricts CaV 1.2 activity to its target sites. We solved separate NMR structures of the IQ motif (residues 1,646-1,664) bound to α-actinin-1 and to apo-calmodulin (apoCaM). The CaV 1.2 K1647A and Y1649A mutations, which impair α-actinin-1 but not apoCaM binding, but not the F1658A and K1662E mutations, which impair apoCaM but not α-actinin-1 binding, decreased single-channel open probability, gating charge movement, and its coupling to channel opening. Thus, α-actinin recruits CaV 1.2 to defined surface regions and simultaneously boosts its open probability so that CaV 1.2 is mostly active when appropriately localized.

Abstract
The pathophysiology of neuropsychiatric disorders involves complex interactions between genetic and environmental risk factors. Confirmed by several genome-wide association studies, Cacna1c represents one of the most robustly replicated psychiatric risk genes. Besides genetic predispositions, environmental stress such as childhood maltreatment also contributes to enhanced disease vulnerability. Both, Cacna1c gene variants and stressful life events are associated with morphological alterations in the prefrontal cortex and the hippocampus. Emerging evidence suggests impaired mitochondrial bioenergetics as a possible underlying mechanism of these regional brain abnormalities. In the present study, we simulated the interaction of psychiatric disease-relevant genetic and environmental factors in rodents to investigate their potential effect on brain mitochondrial function using a constitutive heterozygous Cacna1c rat model in combination with a four-week exposure to either post-weaning social isolation, standard housing, or social and physical environmental enrichment. Mitochondria were isolated from the prefrontal cortex and the hippocampus to evaluate their bioenergetics, membrane potential, reactive oxygen species production, and respiratory chain complex protein levels. None of these parameters were considerably affected in this particular gene-environment setting. These negative results were very robust in all tested conditions demonstrating that Cacna1c depletion did not significantly translate into altered bioenergetic characteristics. Thus, further investigations are required to determine the disease-related effects on brain mitochondria.

Abstract
Elevated blood glucose (hyperglycemia) is a hallmark metabolic abnormality in diabetes. Hyperglycemia is associated with protein kinase A (PKA)-mediated stimulation of L-type Ca2+ channels in arterial myocytes resulting in increased vasoconstriction. However, the mechanisms by which glucose activates PKA remain unclear. Here, we showed that elevating extracellular glucose stimulates cAMP production in arterial myocytes, and that this was specifically dependent on adenylyl cyclase 5 (AC5) activity. Super-resolution imaging suggested nanometer proximity between subpopulations of AC5 and the L-type Ca2+ channel pore-forming subunit CaV1.2. In vitro, in silico, ex vivo and in vivo experiments revealed that this close association is critical for stimulation of L-type Ca2+ channels in arterial myocytes and increased myogenic tone upon acute hyperglycemia. This pathway supported the increase in L-type Ca2+ channel activity and myogenic tone in two animal models of diabetes. Our collective findings demonstrate a unique role for AC5 in PKA-dependent modulation of L-type Ca2+ channel activity and vascular reactivity during acute hyperglycemia and diabetes.

Abstract
Key points Prevailing dogma holds that activation of the β‐adrenergic receptor/cAMP/protein kinase A signalling pathway leads to enhanced L‐type CaV1.2 channel activity, resulting in increased Ca2+ influx into ventricular myocytes and a positive inotropic response. However, the full mechanistic and molecular details underlying this phenomenon are incompletely understood. CaV1.2 channel clusters decorate T‐tubule sarcolemmas of ventricular myocytes. Within clusters, nanometer proximity between channels permits Ca2+‐dependent co‐operative gating behaviour mediated by physical interactions between adjacent channel C‐terminal tails. We report that stimulation of cardiomyocytes with isoproterenol, evokes dynamic, protein kinase A‐dependent augmentation of CaV1.2 channel abundance along cardiomyocyte T‐tubules, resulting in the appearance of channel ‘super‐clusters’, and enhanced channel co‐operativity that amplifies Ca2+ influx. On the basis of these data, we suggest a new model in which a sub‐sarcolemmal pool of pre‐synthesized CaV1.2 channels resides in cardiomyocytes and can be mobilized to the membrane in times of high haemodynamic or metabolic demand, to tune excitation–contraction coupling.
Abstract Voltage‐dependent L‐type CaV1.2 channels play an indispensable role in cardiac excitation–contraction coupling. Activation of the β‐adrenergic receptor (βAR)/cAMP/protein kinase A (PKA) signalling pathway leads to enhanced CaV1.2 activity, resulting in increased Ca2+ influx into ventricular myocytes and a positive inotropic response. CaV1.2 channels exhibit a clustered distribution along the T‐tubule sarcolemma of ventricular myocytes where nanometer proximity between channels permits Ca2+‐dependent co‐operative gating behaviour mediated by dynamic, physical, allosteric interactions between adjacent channel C‐terminal tails. This amplifies Ca2+ influx and augments myocyte Ca2+ transient and contraction amplitudes. We investigated whether βAR signalling could alter CaV1.2 channel clustering to facilitate co‐operative channel interactions and elevate Ca2+ influx in ventricular myocytes. Bimolecular fluorescence complementation experiments reveal that the βAR agonist, isoproterenol (ISO), promotes enhanced CaV1.2–CaV1.2 physical interactions. Super‐resolution nanoscopy and dynamic channel tracking indicate that these interactions are expedited by enhanced spatial proximity between channels, resulting in the appearance of CaV1.2 ‘super‐clusters’ along the z‐lines of ISO‐stimulated cardiomyocytes. The mechanism that leads to super‐cluster formation involves rapid, dynamic augmentation of sarcolemmal CaV1.2 channel abundance after ISO application. Optical and electrophysiological single channel recordings confirm that these newly inserted channels are functional and contribute to overt co‐operative gating behaviour of CaV1.2 channels in ISO stimulated myocytes. The results of the present study reveal a new facet of βAR‐mediated regulation of CaV1.2 channels in the heart and support the novel concept that a pre‐synthesized pool of sub‐sarcolemmal CaV1.2 channel‐containing vesicles/endosomes resides in cardiomyocytes and can be mobilized to the sarcolemma to tune excitation–contraction coupling to meet metabolic and/or haemodynamic demands. Prevailing dogma holds that activation of the β‐adrenergic receptor/cAMP/protein kinase A signalling pathway leads to enhanced L‐type CaV1.2 channel activity, resulting in increased Ca2+ influx into ventricular myocytes and a positive inotropic response. However, the full mechanistic and molecular details underlying this phenomenon are incompletely understood. CaV1.2 channel clusters decorate T‐tubule sarcolemmas of ventricular myocytes. Within clusters, nanometer proximity between channels permits Ca2+‐dependent co‐operative gating behaviour mediated by physical interactions between adjacent channel C‐terminal tails. We report that stimulation of cardiomyocytes with isoproterenol, evokes dynamic, protein kinase A‐dependent augmentation of CaV1.2 channel abundance along cardiomyocyte T‐tubules, resulting in the appearance of channel ‘super‐clusters’, and enhanced channel co‐operativity that amplifies Ca2+ influx. On the basis of these data, we suggest a new model in which a sub‐sarcolemmal pool of pre‐synthesized CaV1.2 channels resides in cardiomyocytes and can be mobilized to the membrane in times of high haemodynamic or metabolic demand, to tune excitation–contraction coupling.

Abstract
Elevated glucose increases vascular reactivity by promoting L-type CaV1.2 channel (LTCC) activity by protein kinase A (PKA). Yet, how glucose activates PKA is unknown. We hypothesized that a Gs-coupled P2Y receptor is an upstream activator of PKA mediating LTCC potentiation during diabetic hyperglycemia. Experiments in apyrase-treated cells suggested involvement of a P2Y receptor underlying the glucose effects on LTTCs. Using human tissue, expression for P2Y11, the only Gs-coupled P2Y receptor, was detected in nanometer proximity to CaV1.2 and PKA. FRET-based experiments revealed that the selective P2Y11 agonist NF546 and elevated glucose stimulate cAMP production resulting in enhanced PKA-dependent LTCC activity. These changes were blocked by the selective P2Y11 inhibitor NF340. Comparable results were observed in mouse tissue, suggesting that a P2Y11-like receptor is mediating the glucose response in these cells. These findings established a key role for P2Y11 in regulating PKA-dependent LTCC function and vascular reactivity during diabetic hyperglycemia.

Temme SJ, Murphy GG. The L-type voltage-gated calcium channel Ca V1.2 mediates fear extinction and modulates synaptic tone in the lateral amygdala. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2017; 24:580-588. [PMID: 29038219 PMCID: PMC5647931 DOI: 10.1101/lm.045773.117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2017] [Accepted: 07/17/2017] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
L-type voltage-gated calcium channels (LVGCCs) have been implicated in both the formation and the reduction of fear through Pavlovian fear conditioning and extinction. Despite the implication of LVGCCs in fear learning and extinction, studies of the individual LVGCC subtypes, CaV1.2 and CaV1.3, using transgenic mice have failed to find a role of either subtype in fear extinction. This discontinuity between the pharmacological studies of LVGCCs and the studies investigating individual subtype contributions could be due to the limited neuronal deletion pattern of the CaV1.2 conditional knockout mice previously studied to excitatory neurons in the forebrain. To investigate the effects of deletion of CaV1.2 in all neuronal populations, we generated CaV1.2 conditional knockout mice using the synapsin1 promoter to drive Cre recombinase expression. Pan-neuronal deletion of CaV1.2 did not alter basal anxiety or fear learning. However, pan-neuronal deletion of CaV1.2 resulted in a significant deficit in extinction of contextual fear, implicating LVGCCs, specifically CaV1.2, in extinction learning. Further exploration on the effects of deletion of CaV1.2 on inhibitory and excitatory input onto the principle neurons of the lateral amygdala revealed a significant shift in inhibitory/excitatory balance. Together these data illustrate an important role of CaV1.2 in fear extinction and the synaptic regulation of activity within the amygdala.
