Abstract
Corticotropic cells of the anterior pituitary gland release adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) in a regulated manner to promote the production of cortisol and androgens. The process of ACTH secretion is partly mediated by the phosphofurin acidic cluster sorting protein 1 (PACS-1); however, the underlying mechanisms behind this regulation remain unclear. Herein, we demonstrated PACS-1 interactions with the short transient receptor potential channel 3 (TRPC3) calcium transporter and the extended synaptotagmin-1 (ESyt1) endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane tethering protein. Importantly, PACS-1 promoted interactions between TRPC3 and ESyt1 and regulated their plasma membrane localization. Lastly, we demonstrated that PACS-1 is required for a proper store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) response and that ESyt1 regulates ACTH secretion through an unknown mechanism regulated by PACS-1. Overall, our study provides new insights into the physiological role PACS-1 plays in modulating intracellular calcium levels and regulating ACTH secretion in corticotropic cells.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential canonical 3 (TRPC3) protein belongs to the TRP family of nonselective cation channels. Its activation occurs by signaling through a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) and a phospholipase C-dependent (PLC) pathway. Perturbations in the expression of TRPC3 are associated with a plethora of pathophysiological conditions responsible for disorders of the cardiovascular, immune, and central nervous systems. The recently solved cryo-EM structure of TRPC3 provides detailed inputs about the underlying mechanistic aspects of the channel, which in turn enables more efficient ways of designing small-molecule modulators. Pharmacologically targeting TRPC3 in animal models has demonstrated great efficacy in treating diseases including cancers, neurological disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. Despite extensive scientific evidence supporting some strong correlations between the expression and activity of TRPC3 and various pathophysiological conditions, therapeutic strategies based on its pharmacological modulations have not led to clinical trials. The development of small-molecule TRPC3 modulators with high safety, sufficient brain penetration, and acceptable drug-like profiles remains in progress. Determining the pathological mechanisms for TRPC3 involvement in human diseases and understanding the requirements for a drug-like TRPC3 modulator will be valuable in advancing small-molecule therapeutics to future clinical trials. In this review, we provide an overview of the origin and activation mechanism of TRPC3 channels, diseases associated with irregularities in their expression, and new development in small-molecule modulators as potential therapeutic interventions for treating TRPC3 channelopathies.

Abstract
When host cells are exposed to foreign particles, dead cells, or cell hazards, a sophisticated process called phagocytosis begins. During this process, macrophages, dendritic cells, and neutrophils engulf the target by expanding their membranes. Phagocytosis of apoptotic cells is called efferocytosis. This process is of significant importance as billions of cells are eliminated daily without provoking inflammation. Both phagocytosis and efferocytosis depend on Ca2+ signaling. A big family of Ca2+ permeable channels is transient receptor potentials (TRPs) divided into nine subfamilies. We aimed to review their roles in phagocytosis. The present review article shows that various TRP channels such as TRPV1, 2, 3, 4, TRPM2, 4, 7, 8, TRPML1, TRPA1, TRPC1, 3, 5, 6 have roles at various stages of phagocytosis. They are involved in the phagocytosis of amyloid β, α-synuclein, myelin debris, bacteria, and apoptotic cells. In particular, TRPC3 and TRPM7 contribute to efferocytosis. These effects are mediated by changing Ca2+ signaling or targeting intracellular enzymes such as Akt. In addition, they contribute to the chemotaxis of phagocytic cells towards targets. Although a limited number of studies have assessed the role of TRP channels in phagocytosis and efferocytosis, their findings indicate that they have critical roles in these processes. In some cases, their ablation completely abolished the phagocytic function of the cells. As a result, TRP channels are potential targets for developing new therapeutics that modulate phagocytosis.

Abstract
Calcium influx through plasma membrane ion channels is crucial for many events in cellular physiology. Cell surface stimuli lead to the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), which binds to IP3 receptors (IP3R) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to release calcium pools from the ER lumen. This leads to the depletion of ER calcium pools, which has been termed store depletion. Store depletion leads to the dissociation of calcium ions from the EF-hand motif of the ER calcium sensor Stromal Interaction Molecule 1 (STIM1). This leads to a conformational change in STIM1, which helps it to interact with the plasma membrane (PM) at ER:PM junctions. At these ER:PM junctions, STIM1 binds to and activates a calcium channel known as Orai1 to form calcium release-activated calcium (CRAC) channels. Activation of Orai1 leads to calcium influx, known as store-operated calcium entry (SOCE). In addition to Orai1 and STIM1, the homologs of Orai1 and STIM1, such as Orai2/3 and STIM2, also play a crucial role in calcium homeostasis. The influx of calcium through the Orai channel activates a calcium current that has been termed the CRAC current. CRAC channels form multimers and cluster together in large macromolecular assemblies termed "puncta". How CRAC channels form puncta has been contentious since their discovery. In this review, we will outline the history of SOCE, the molecular players involved in this process, as well as the models that have been proposed to explain this critical mechanism in cellular physiology.

Abstract
Metastasis is the hallmark of failed tumor treatment and is typically associated with death due to cancer. Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels affect changes in intracellular calcium concentrations and participate at every stage of metastasis. Further, they increase the migratory ability of tumor cells, promote angiogenesis, regulate immune function, and promote the growth of tumor cells through changes in gene expression and function. In this review, we explore the potential mechanisms of action of TRP channels, summarize their role in tumor metastasis, compile inhibitors of TRP channels relevant in tumors, and discuss current challenges in research on TRP channels involved in tumor metastasis.

Abstract
In recent decades cancer emerged as one of the leading causes of death in the developed countries, with some types of cancer contributing to the top 10 causes of death on the list of the World Health Organization. Carcinogenesis, a malignant transformation causing formation of tumors in normal tissues, is associated with changes in the cell cycle caused by suppression of signaling pathways leading to cell death and facilitation of those enhancing proliferation. Further progression of cancer, during which benign tumors acquire more aggressive phenotypes, is characterized by metastatic dissemination through the body driven by augmented motility and invasiveness of cancer cells. All these processes are associated with alterations in calcium homeostasis in cancer cells, which promote their proliferation, motility and invasion, and dissuade cell death or cell cycle arrest. Remodeling of store-operated calcium entry (SOCE), one of the major pathways regulating intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), manifests a key event in many of these processes. This review systematizes current knowledge on the mechanisms recruiting SOCE-related proteins in carcinogenesis and cancer progression.

Abstract
Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the human body and is central to many physiological processes, including immune system activation and maintenance. Studies continue to reveal the intricacies of calcium signalling within the immune system. Perhaps the most well-understood mechanism of calcium influx into cells is store-operated calcium entry (SOCE), which occurs via calcium release-activated channels (CRACs). SOCE is central to the activation of immune system cells; however, more recent studies have demonstrated the crucial role of other calcium channels, including transient receptor potential (TRP) channels. In this review, we describe the expression and function of TRP channels within the immune system and outline associations with murine models of disease and human conditions. Therefore, highlighting the importance of TRP channels in disease and reviewing potential. The TRP channel family is significant, and its members have a continually growing number of cellular processes. Within the immune system, TRP channels are involved in a diverse range of functions including T and B cell receptor signalling and activation, antigen presentation by dendritic cells, neutrophil and macrophage bactericidal activity, and mast cell degranulation. Not surprisingly, these channels have been linked to many pathological conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease, chronic fatigue syndrome and myalgic encephalomyelitis, atherosclerosis, hypertension and atopy.

Abstract
Critical functions of immune cells require them to rapidly change their shape and generate forces in response to cues from their surrounding environment. However, little is known about how soluble factors that may be present in the microenvironment modulate key aspects of cellular mechanobiology-such as immune cell deformability and force generation-to impact functions such as phagocytosis and migration. Here we show that signaling by soluble stress hormones through β-adrenoceptors (β-AR) reduces the deformability of macrophages; this is dependent on changes in the organization of the actin cytoskeleton and is associated with functional changes in phagocytosis and migration. Pharmacologic interventions reveal that the impact of β-AR signaling on macrophage deformability is dependent on actin-related proteins 2/3, indicating that stress hormone signaling through β-AR shifts actin organization to favor branched structures rather than linear unbranched actin filaments. These findings show that through remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton, β-AR-mediated stress hormone signaling modulates macrophage mechanotype to impact functions that play a critical role in immune response.-Kim, T.-H., Ly, C., Christodoulides, A., Nowell, C.

Abstract
Neutrophils are the most motile of mammalian cells, a feature that enables them to protect the host against the rapid spread of pathogens from tissue into the circulatory system. A critical process is the recruitment of neutrophils to inflamed endothelium within post-capillary venules. This occurs through cooperation between at least four families of adhesion molecules and G-protein coupled signaling receptors. These adhesion molecules convert the drag force induced by blood flow acting on the cell surface into bond tension that resists detachment. A common feature of selectin-glycoprotein tethering and integrin-ICAM bond formation is the mechanics by which force acting on these specific receptor-ligand pairs influences their longevity, strength, and topographic organization on the plasma membrane. Another distinctly mechanical aspect of neutrophil guidance is the capacity of adhesive bonds to convert external mechanical force into internal biochemical signals through the transmission of force from the outside-in at focal sites of adhesive traction on inflamed endothelium. Within this region of the plasma membrane, we denote the inflammatory synapse, Ca2+ release, and intracellular signaling provide directional cues that guide actin assembly and myosin driven motive force. This review provides an overview of how bond formation and outside-in signaling controls neutrophil recruitment and migration relative to the hydrodynamic shear force of blood flow.

Abstract
In neutrophils, intracellular Ca2+ levels are regulated by several transporters and pathways, namely SERCA [sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase], SOCE (store-operated calcium entry), and ROCE (receptor-operated calcium entry). However, the exact mechanisms involved in the communication among these transporters are still unclear. In the present study, thapsigargin, an irreversible inhibitor of SERCA, and ML-9, a broadly used SOCE inhibitor, were applied in human neutrophils to better understand their effects on Ca2+ pathways in these important cells of the immune system. The thapsigargin and ML-9 effects in the intracellular free Ca2+ flux were evaluated in freshly isolated human neutrophils, using a microplate reader for monitoring fluorimetric kinetic readings. The obtained results corroborate the general thapsigargin-induced intracellular pattern of Ca2+ fluctuation, but it was also observed a much more extended effect in time and a clear sustained increase of Ca2+ levels due to its influx by SOCE. Moreover, it was obvious that ML-9 enhanced the thapsigargin-induced emptying of the internal stores. Indeed, ML-9 does not have this effect by itself, which indicates that, in neutrophils, thapsigargin does not act only on the influx by SOCE, but also by other Ca2+ pathways, that, in the future, should be further explored.

Abstract
The recruitment of neutrophils to sites of inflammation, their battle against invading microorganisms through phagocytosis and the release of antimicrobial agents is a highly coordinated and tightly regulated process that involves the interplay of many different receptors, ion channels and signalling pathways. Changes in intracellular calcium levels, caused by cytosolic Ca2+ store depletion and the influx of extracellular Ca2+ via ion channels, play a critical role in synchronizing neutrophil activation and function. In this review, we provide an overview of how Ca2+ signalling is initiated in neutrophils and how changes in intracellular Ca2+ levels modulate neutrophil function.

Abstract
Excessive levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and impaired Ca2+ homeostasis play central roles in the development of multiple cardiac pathologies, including cell death during ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. In several organs, treatment with 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB) was shown to have protective effects, generally believed to be due to Ca2+ channel inhibition. However, the mechanism of 2-APB-induced cardioprotection has not been fully investigated. Herein we investigated the protective effects of 2-APB treatment against cardiac pathogenesis and deciphered the underlying mechanisms. In neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, treatment with 2-APB was shown to prevent hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) -induced cell death by inhibiting the increase in intracellular Ca2+ levels. However, no 2-APB-sensitive channel blocker inhibited H2O2-induced cell death and a direct reaction between 2-APB and H2O2 was detected by 1H-NMR, suggesting that 2-APB chemically scavenges extracellular ROS and provides cytoprotection. In a mouse I/R model, treatment with 2-APB led to a considerable reduction in the infarct size after I/R, which was accompanied by the reduction in ROS levels and neutrophil infiltration, indicating that the anti-oxidative properties of 2-APB plays an important role in the prevention of I/R injury in vivo as well. Taken together, present results indicate that 2-APB treatment induces cardioprotection and prevents ROS-induced cardiomyocyte death, at least partially, by the direct scavenging of extracellular ROS. Therefore, administration of 2-APB may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of ROS-related cardiac pathology including I/R injury.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) migration is regulated by cytoskeletal remodeling as well as by certain transient receptor potential (TRP) channels, nonselective cation channels that modulate calcium influx. Proper function of multiple subfamily C TRP (TRPC) channels requires the scaffolding protein Homer 1, which associates with the actin-binding protein Drebrin. We found that SMC Drebrin expression is upregulated in atherosclerosis and in response to injury and investigated whether Drebrin inhibits SMC activation, either through regulation of TRP channel function via Homer or through a direct effect on the actin cytoskeleton. APPROACH AND RESULTS Wild-type (WT) and congenic Dbn(-/+) mice were subjected to wire-mediated carotid endothelial denudation. Subsequent neointimal hyperplasia was 2.4±0.3-fold greater in Dbn(-/+) than in WT mice. Levels of globular actin were equivalent in Dbn(-/+) and WT SMCs, but there was a 2.4±0.5-fold decrease in filamentous actin in Dbn(-/+) SMCs compared with WT. Filamentous actin was restored to WT levels in Dbn(-/+) SMCs by adenoviral-mediated rescue expression of Drebrin. Compared with WT SMCs, Dbn(-/+) SMCs exhibited increased TRP channel activity in response to platelet-derived growth factor, increased migration assessed in Boyden chambers, and increased proliferation. Enhanced TRP channel activity and migration in Dbn(-/+) SMCs were normalized to WT levels by rescue expression of not only WT Drebrin but also a mutant Drebrin isoform that binds actin but fails to bind Homer. CONCLUSIONS Drebrin reduces SMC activation through its interaction with the actin cytoskeleton but independently of its interaction with Homer scaffolds.

Abstract
A complex network of many interacting mechanisms orchestrates immune and inflammatory responses. Among these, the cation channels of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family expressed by resident tissue cells, inflammatory and immune cells and distinct subsets of primary sensory neurons, have emerged as a novel and interrelated system to detect and respond to harmful agents. TRP channels, by means of their direct effect on the intracellular levels of cations and/or through the indirect modulation of a large series of intracellular pathways, orchestrate a range of cellular processes, such as cytokine production, cell differentiation and cytotoxicity. The contribution of TRP channels to the transition of inflammation and immune responses from a defensive early response to a chronic and pathological condition is also emerging as a possible underlying mechanism in various diseases. This review discusses the roles of TRP channels in inflammatory and immune cell function and provides an overview of the effects of inflammatory and immune TRP channels on the pathogenesis of human diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We aimed to investigate whether CD147 can up-regulate the chemotactic, adhesive and invasive properties of human neutrophils and to determine the mechanism underlying this process. METHODS Human promyelocytic leukaemia cells (HL-60) cells and peripheral blood or synovial fluid neutrophils were isolated from RA patients. Under cyclophilin A (CypA) stimulation, chemotaxis, adhesion potential and invasion ability were assessed using chemotaxis, adhesion and invasiveness assays. Lipid raft isolation and western blot were used to determine the mechanism underlying the effects of CypA stimulation. RESULTS CD147 up-regulates the calcium-induced chemotaxis, adhesion ability and invasiveness of human neutrophils in RA patients. Transient receptor potential melastatin 7 may be responsible for this phenomenon. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that in RA patients, abundant CypA up-regulates the calcium-induced chemotactic, adhesive and invasive properties of neutrophils via direct binding to CD147. Cyclophilin-CD147 interactions might contribute to the destruction of cartilage and bone in RA.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Cancer cells are strongly influenced by host cells within the tumour stroma and vice versa. This leads to the development of a tumour microenvironment with distinct physical and chemical properties that are permissive for tumour progression. The ability to migrate plays a central role in this mutual interaction. Migration of cancer cells is considered as a prerequisite for tumour metastasis and the migration of host stromal cells is required for reaching the tumour site. Increasing evidence suggests that transient receptor potential (TRP) channels and STIM/ORAI proteins affect key calcium-dependent mechanisms implicated in both cancer and stroma cell migration. These include, among others, cytoskeletal remodelling, growth factor/cytokine signalling and production, and adaptation to tumour microenvironmental properties such as hypoxia and oxidative stress. In this review, we will summarize the current knowledge regarding TRP channels and STIM/ORAI proteins in cancer and stroma cell migration. We focus on how TRP channel or STIM/ORAI-mediated Ca(2+) signalling directly or indirectly influences cancer and stroma cell migration by affecting the above listed mechanisms.

Abstract
In the mammalian central nervous system, the postsynaptic small-conductance Ca(2+)-dependent K(+) (SK) channel has been shown to reduce postsynaptic depolarization and limit Ca(2+) influx through N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors. To examine further the role of the postsynaptic SK channel in synaptic transmission, we studied its action at the Drosophila larval neuromuscular junction (NMJ). Repetitive synaptic stimulation produced an increase in postsynaptic membrane conductance leading to depression of excitatory postsynaptic potential amplitude and hyperpolarization of the resting membrane potential (RMP). This reduction in synaptic excitation was due to the postsynaptic Drosophila SK (dSK) channel; synaptic depression, increased membrane conductance and RMP hyperpolarization were reduced in dSK mutants or after expressing a Ca(2+) buffer in the muscle. Ca(2+) entering at the postsynaptic membrane was sufficient to activate dSK channels based upon studies in which the muscle membrane was voltage clamped to prevent opening voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels. Increasing external Ca(2+) produced an increase in resting membrane conductance and RMP that was not seen in dSK mutants or after adding the glutamate-receptor blocker philanthotoxin. Thus it appeared that dSK channels were also activated by spontaneous transmitter release and played a role in setting membrane conductance and RMP. In mammals, dephosphorylation by protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) increased the Ca(2+) sensitivity of the SK channel; PP2A appeared to increase the sensitivity of the dSK channel since PP2A inhibitors reduced activation of the dSK channel by evoked synaptic activity or increased external Ca(2+). It is proposed that spontaneous and evoked transmitter release activate the postsynaptic dSK channel to limit synaptic excitation and stabilize synapses.

Abstract
TRPC4 proteins comprise six transmembrane domains, a putative pore-forming region, and an intracellularly located amino- and carboxy-terminus. Among eleven splice variants identified so far, TRPC4α and TRPC4β are the most abundantly expressed and functionally characterized. TRPC4 is expressed in various organs and cell types including the soma and dendrites of numerous types of neurons; the cardiovascular system including endothelial, smooth muscle, and cardiac cells; myometrial and skeletal muscle cells; kidney; and immune cells such as mast cells. Both recombinant and native TRPC4-containing channels differ tremendously in their permeability and other biophysical properties, pharmacological modulation, and mode of activation depending on the cellular environment. They vary from inwardly rectifying store-operated channels with a high Ca(2+) selectivity to non-store-operated channels predominantly carrying Na(+) and activated by Gαq- and/or Gαi-coupled receptors with a complex U-shaped current-voltage relationship. Thus, individual TRPC4-containing channels contribute to agonist-induced Ca(2+) entry directly or indirectly via depolarization and activation of voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels. The differences in channel properties may arise from variations in the composition of the channel complexes, in the specific regulatory pathways in the corresponding cell system, and/or in the expression pattern of interaction partners which comprise other TRPC proteins to form heteromultimeric channels. Additional interaction partners of TRPC4 that can mediate the activity of TRPC4-containing channels include (1) scaffolding proteins (e.g., NHERF) that may mediate interactions with signaling molecules in or in close vicinity to the plasma membrane such as Gα proteins or phospholipase C and with the cytoskeleton, (2) proteins in specific membrane microdomains (e.g., caveolin-1), or (3) proteins on cellular organelles (e.g., Stim1). The diversity of TRPC4-containing channels hampers the development of specific agonists or antagonists, but recently, ML204 was identified as a blocker of both recombinant and endogenous TRPC4-containing channels with an IC50 in the lower micromolar range that lacks activity on most voltage-gated channels and other TRPs except TRPC5 and TRPC3. Lanthanides are specific activators of heterologously expressed TRPC4- and TRPC5-containing channels but can block individual native TRPC4-containing channels. The biological relevance of TRPC4-containing channels was demonstrated by knockdown of TRPC4 expression in numerous native systems including gene expression, cell differentiation and proliferation, formation of myotubes, and axonal regeneration. Studies of TRPC4 single and TRPC compound knockout mice uncovered their role for the regulation of vascular tone, endothelial permeability, gastrointestinal contractility and motility, neurotransmitter release, and social exploratory behavior as well as for excitotoxicity and epileptogenesis. Recently, a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the Trpc4 gene was associated with a reduced risk for experience of myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Calcium ion (Ca(2+)) concentration plays a key role in cell signaling in eukaryotic cells. At the cellular level, Ca(2+) directly participates in such diverse cellular events as adhesion and migration, differentiation, contraction, secretion, synaptic transmission, fertilization, and cell death. As a consequence of these diverse actions, the cytosolic concentration of free Ca(2+) is tightly regulated by the coordinated activity of Ca(2+) channels, Ca(2+) pumps, and Ca(2+)-binding proteins. Although many of these regulators have been studied in depth, other proteins have been described recently, and naturally far less is known about their contribution to cell physiology. Within this last group of proteins, STIM1 has emerged as a major contributor to Ca(2+) signaling by means of its activity as Ca(2+) channel regulator. STIM1 is a protein resident mainly, but not exclusively, in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and activates a set of plasma membrane Ca(2+) channels termed store-operated calcium channels (SOCs) when the concentration of free Ca(2+) within the ER drops transiently as a result of Ca(2+) release from this compartment. Knowledge regarding the molecular architecture of STIM1 has grown considerably during the last years, and several structural domains within STIM1 have been reported to be required for the specific molecular interactions with other important players in Ca(2+) signaling, such as Ca(2+) channels and microtubules. Within the modulators of STIM1, phosphorylation has been shown to both activate and inactivate STIM1-dependent Ca(2+) entry depending on the cell type, cell cycle phase, and the specific residue that becomes modified. Here we shall review current knowledge regarding the modulation of STIM1 by phosphorylation.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are six transmembrane-spanning proteins, with variable selectivity for cations, that play a relevant role in intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis. There is a large body of evidence that shows association of TRP channels with the actin cytoskeleton or even the microtubules and demonstrating the functional importance of this interaction for TRP channel function. Conversely, cation currents through TRP channels have also been found to modulate cytoskeleton rearrangements. The interplay between TRP channels and the cytoskeleton has been demonstrated to be essential for full activation of a variety of cellular functions. Furthermore, TRP channels have been reported to take part of macromolecular complexes including different signal transduction proteins. Scaffolding proteins play a relevant role in the association of TRP proteins with other signaling molecules into specific microdomains. Especially relevant are the roles of the Homer family members for the regulation of TRPC channel gating in mammals and INAD in the modulation of Drosophila TRP channels.

Abstract
Neuroendocrine differentiation (NED) is a hallmark of advanced androgen-independent prostate cancer, for which no successful therapy exists. NED tumour cells escape apoptotic cell death by alterations of Ca(2+) homeostasis where the store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) is known to be a key event. We have previously shown that the downregulation of Orai1 protein representing the major molecular component of endogenous SOCE in human prostate cancer cells, and constituting the principal source of Ca(2+) influx used by the cell to trigger apoptosis, contributes to the establishment of an apoptosis-resistant phenotype (Cell Death Dis. 2010 Sep 16;1:e75.). Here, we report for the first time that the decrease of SOCE during NED may be caused by alternative NED-induced mechanism involving cytoskeleton reorganisation. NED induced by androgen deprivation resulted in a decrease of SOCE due to cortical F-actin over-polymerization which inhibits thapsigargin-induced SOCE. The disruption of F-actin polymerization by Cytochalasin D in NED cells restored SOCE, while the induction of F-actin polymerization by jasplakinolide or calyculin A diminished SOCE without changing the expression of key SOCE players: Orai1, STIM1, and TRPC1. Our data suggest that targeting cytoskeleton-induced pathways of malignant cells together with SOCE-involved channels may prove a useful strategy in the treatment of advanced prostate cancer.

Store-independent pathways for cytosolic STIM1 clustering in the regulation of store-operated Ca(2+) influx. Biochem Pharmacol 2012; 84:1024-35. [PMID: 22842488 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2012.07.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2012] [Revised: 07/08/2012] [Accepted: 07/16/2012] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
STIM1 is a Ca(2+) sensing molecule. Once the Ca(2+) stores are depleted, STIM1 moves towards the plasma membrane (PM) (translocation), forms puncta (clustering), and triggers store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE). Although this process has been regarded as a main mechanism for store-operated Ca(2+) channel activation, the STIM1 clustering is still unclear. Here we discovered a new phenomenon of STIM1 clustering, which is not triggered by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca(2+) depletion. STIM1 subplasmalemmal translocation and clustering can be induced by ER Ca(2+) store depletion with thapsigargin (TG), G-protein-coupled receptor activator trypsin and ryanodine receptor (RyR) agonists caffeine and 4-chloro-3-ethylphenol (4-CEP) in the HEK293 cells stably transfected with STIM1-EYFP. The STIM1 clustering induced by TG was more sustained than that induced by trypsin and RyR agonists. Interestingly, 4-CEP-induced STIM1 clustering also happened in the cytosol without ER Ca(2+) store depletion. Application of some pharmacological regulators including flufenamic acid, 2-APB, and carbonyl cyanide 4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone (FCCP) at concentrations without affecting ER Ca(2+) store also evoked cytosolic STIM1 clustering. However, the direct store-operated ORAI channel blockers (SKF-96365, Gd(3+) and diethylstilbestrol) or the signaling pathway inhibitors (genistein, wortmannin, Y-27632, forskolin and GF109203X) did not change the STIM1 movement. Disruption of cytoskeleton by colchicine and cytochalasin D also showed no effect on STIM1 movement. We concluded that STIM1 clustering and translocation are two dynamic processes that can be pharmacologically dissociated. The ER Ca(2+) store-independent mechanism for STIM1 clustering is a new alternative mechanism for regulating store-operated channel activity, which could act as a new pharmacological target.

Abstract
Leukocyte trafficking to acute sites of injury or infection requires spatial and temporal cues that fine tune precise sites of firm adhesion and guide migration to endothelial junctions where they undergo diapedesis to sites of insult. Many detailed studies on the location and gradient of chemokines such as IL-8 and other CXCR ligands reveal that their recognition shortly after selectin-mediated capture and rolling exerts acute effects on integrin activation and subsequent binding to their ligands on the endothelium, which directs firm adhesion, adhesion strengthening, and downstream migration. In this process, G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling has been found to play an integral role in activating and mobilizing intracellular stores of calcium, GTPases such as Rap-1 and Rho and cytokeletal proteins such as Talin and F-actin to facilitate cell polarity and directional pseudopod formation. A critical question remaining is how intracellular Ca(2+) flux from CRAC channels such as Orai1 synergizes with cytosolic stores to mediate a rapid flux which is critical to the onset of PMN arrest and polarization. Our review will highlight a specific role for calcium as a signaling messenger in activating focal clusters of integrins bound to the cytoskeleton which allows the cell to attain a migratory phenotype. The precise interplay between chemokines, selectins, and integrins binding under the ubiquitous presence of shear stress from blood flow provides an essential cooperative signaling mechanism for effective leukocyte recruitment.

Abstract
Neutrophils are the first line of defense against pathogens in bovines; however, they are also one of the most aggressive cells during the inflammatory process, causing injury in surrounding tissues. At present, anti-inflammatory drugs are limited in acute diseases, such as pneumonia, mastitis and endometritis, because neutrophils are mostly insensitive. One of the earliest events during neutrophil activation is the increase in intracellular calcium concentration. The calcium movement is attributed to the release from intracellular stores and influx through the calcium channels in the plasma membrane, a process called store operated calcium entry (SOCE). Recently, several calcium influx blockers have been shown to have strong effects on bovine neutrophils, and this suggests that the manipulation of this pathway can be useful in the control of neutrophil functions during acute inflammatory processes. In this paper, we will review the role of calcium influx as a potential anti-inflammatory target and summarize the most recent evidences for this in bovine neutrophils.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) is a major pathway for Ca(2+) influx in non-excitable cells. Recent studies favour a conformational coupling mechanism between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca(2+) sensor STIM1 and Ca(2+) permeable channels in the plasma membrane to explain SOCE. Previous studies have reported a role for the cytoskeleton modulating the activation of SOCE; therefore, here we have investigated whether the interaction between STIM1 and the Ca(2+) permeable channels is modulated by the actin or microtubular network. In HEK-293 cells, treatment with the microtubular disrupter colchicine enhanced both the activation of SOCE and the association between STIM1 and Orai1 or TRPC1 induced by thapsigargin (TG). Conversely, stabilization of the microtubules by paclitaxel attenuated TG-evoked activation of SOCE and the interaction between STIM1 and the Ca(2+) channels Orai1 and TRPC1, altogether suggesting that the microtubules act as a negative regulator of SOCE. Stabilization of the cortical actin filament layer results in inhibition of TG-evoked both association between STIM1, Orai1 and TRPC1 and SOCE. Interestingly, disruption of the actin filament network by cytochalasin D did not significantly modify TG-evoked association between STIM1 and Orai1 or TRPC1 but enhanced TG-stimulated SOCE. Finally, inhibition of calmodulin by calmidazolium enhances TG-evoked SOCE and disruption of the actin cytoskeleton results in inhibition of TG-evoked association of calmodulin with Orai1 and TRPC1. Thus, we demonstrate that the cytoskeleton plays an essential role in the regulation of SOCE through the modulation of the interaction between their main molecular components.

Abstract
Store-operated calcium entry is a process by which the depletion of calcium from the endoplasmic reticulum activates calcium influx across the plasma membrane. In the past few years, the major players in this pathway have been identified. STIM1 and STIM2 function as calcium sensors in the endoplasmic reticulum and can interact with and activate plasma membrane channels comprised of Orai1, Orai2, or Orai3 subunits. This review discusses recent advances in our understanding of this widespread signaling mechanism as well as the mechanisms by which a number of interesting pharmacological agents modify it.

Abstract
AIM In rat afferent arterioles we investigated the role of Na(+) entry in noradrenaline (NA)-induced depolarization and voltage-dependent Ca(2+) entry together with the importance of the transient receptor potential channel (TRPC) subfamily for non-voltage-dependent Ca(2+) entry. METHODS R (340/380) Fura-2 fluorescence was used as an index for intracellular free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)). Immunofluorescence detected the expression of TRPC channels. RESULTS TRPC 1, 3 and 6 were expressed in afferent arteriolar vascular smooth muscle cells. Under extracellular Na(+)-free (0 Na) conditions, the plateau response to NA was 115% of the baseline R(340/380) (control response 123%). However, as the R(340/380) baseline increased (7%) after 0 Na the plateau reached the same level as during control conditions. Similar responses were obtained after blockade of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger. The L-type blocker nifedipine reduced the plateau response to NA both under control (from 134% to 116% of baseline) and 0 Na conditions (from 112% to 103% of baseline). In the presence of nifedipine, the putative TRPC channel blockers SKF 96365 (30 μm) and Gd(3+) (100 μm) further reduced the plateau Ca(2+) responses to NA (from 117% to 102% and from 117% to 110% respectively). CONCLUSION We found that Na(+) is not crucial for the NA-induced depolarization that mediates Ca(2+) entry via L-type channels. In addition, the results are consistent with the idea that TRPC1/3/6 Ca(2+) -permeable cation channels expressed in afferent arteriolar smooth muscle cells mediate Ca(2+) entry during NA stimulation.

Abstract
Ca(2+) and Sr(2+) entry pathways activated by pro-inflammatory agonists FMLP, LTB(4) and PAF have been compared to thapsigargin in human neutrophils. 2-APB (10microM) increased Ca(2+) influx and to a greater extent in agonist than in thapsigargin stimulated neutrophils. This action of 2-APB was specific to Ca(2+) because 2-APB did not augment Sr(2+) entry in agonist and thapsigargin stimulated neutrophils. This suggests that Ca(2+) and Sr(2+) entry can be used to discriminate between receptor and non-receptor (store)-operated Ca(2+) influx. Our data show for the first time that Pyr3 whilst partially inhibiting agonist induced Ca(2+) influx almost completely abolished Ca(2+) influx after thapsigargin stimulation.

Abstract
Rationale
:
Congestive heart failure (CHF) frequently results in remodeling and increased tone of pulmonary resistance vessels. This adaptive response, which aggravates pulmonary hypertension and thus, promotes right ventricular failure, has been attributed to lung endothelial dysfunction.
Objective
:
We applied real-time fluorescence imaging to identify endothelial dysfunction and underlying molecular mechanisms in an experimental model of CHF induced by supracoronary aortic banding in rats.
Methods and Results
:
Endothelial dysfunction was evident in lungs of CHF rats as impaired endothelium-dependent vasodilation and lack of endothelial NO synthesis in response to mechanical stress, acetylcholine, or histamine. This effect was not attributable to downregulation of endothelial NO synthase. Imaging of the cytosolic Ca
2+

i
homeostasis and signaling characterized by a lack of [Ca

i
responses to mechanical stress, histamine, acetylcholine, or thapsigargin. Reconstitution of a [Ca

signal by ionophore treatment restored endothelial NO production, but lack of endothelial responsiveness was not primarily attributable to downregulation of Ca

influx channels in CHF. Rather, we identified a massive remodeling of the endothelial cytoskeleton in the form of an increased expression of β-actin and F-actin formation which contributed critically to endothelial dysfunction in CHF because cytoskeletal disruption by cytochalasin D largely reconstituted endothelial [Ca

signaling and NO production.
Conclusions
:
Our findings characterize a unique scenario of endothelial dysfunction in CHF that is caused by a singular impairment of [Ca

Abstract
Orai1 was reported to function as a calcium channel subunit that facilitates store operated calcium entry (SOCE) in T cells and is necessary for formation of the immune synapse. We reasoned that SOCE via Orai1 might regulate PMNs activation during recruitment to inflamed endothelium. Orai1 function was assessed by real-time imaging of calcium transients as PMNs were stimulated to roll, arrest, and migrate on E-selectin and ICAM-1 in shear flow. Calcium entry was significantly reduced when Orai1 function was impaired by heterozygous knockout in a mouse model or by siRNA knockdown in HL-60 cells. Reduced Orai-1 expression correlated with the delayed onset of arrest and reduced ability to transition to a polarized migratory phenotype. Inhibition of SOCE by treatment with 2-APB, or blocking phospholipase C (PLC) mediated calcium store release with U73122, abrogated formyl peptide induced calcium elevation, and delayed subsequent cell arrest and polarization. These results suggest that calcium entry via Orai1 is the predominant SOCE that cooperates with cytoplasmic calcium store release in coordinating integrin-dependent PMN arrest and migration in the acute response to inflammation.

Abstract
A pharmacological characterization of Ca(2+) influx pathways in neutrophil granulocytes is problematic because of the lack of specific inhibitors. The activation of transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily M, member 2 (TRPM2) channels by intracellular adenosine diphosphate ribose (ADPR), well characterized in neutrophils, is reportedly inhibited by 8-bromo-ADPR (8Br-ADPR). TRPM2 is blocked by N-(p-amylcinnamoyl)anthranilic acid (ACA) interfering with the pore, but ACA is as well effective on other transient receptor potential channels, especially transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels. We wished to analyze whether ACA and 8Br-ADPR were suitable probes to demonstrate that different Ca(2+) entry pathways are activated in human neutrophil granulocytes by the receptor-dependent stimuli N-formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine (fMLP) and platelet-activating factor (PAF) and the receptor-independent thapsigargin. Ca(2+)-influx-related increases in [Ca(2+)](i) were calculated by comparing aliquots of fluo-3-loaded neutrophils in the presence and absence of extracellular Ca(2+). Moreover, Mn(2+) quenching was used in fura-2-loaded cells. We compared 8Br-ADPR with ACA. 8Br-ADPR was exclusively effective when Ca(2+) influx (or Mn(2+) quenching) was induced by fMLP; it did not affect influx when PAF or thapsigargin was the stimulus. ACA inhibited Ca(2+) influx significantly more strongly when this was induced by PAF than by fMLP. Moreover, it reduced thapsigargin-induced Ca(2+) influx. The contribution of TRPM2 to Ca(2+) influx in neutrophils strongly depends on the stimulus; it is sizeable in the case of fMLP and minimal in the case of PAF. PAF induces Ca(2+) entry pathways different from TRPM2; the inhibition by ACA suggests the contribution of channels of the TRPC family.

STIM1 but not STIM2 is an essential regulator of Ca2+ influx-mediated NADPH oxidase activity in neutrophil-like HL-60 cells. Biochem Pharmacol 2009; 78:504-13.

Abstract
Extracellular Ca2+ entry, primarily mediated through store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE), is known to be a critical event for NADPH oxidase (NOX2) regulation in neutrophils. While defective NOX2 activity has been linked to various inflammatory diseases, regulatory mechanisms that control Ca2+ influx-induced NOX2 activation are poorly understood in SOCE. The role of STIM1, a Ca2+ sensor that transduces the store depletion signal to the plasma membrane, seems well established and supported by numerous studies in non-phagocytic cells. Here, in neutrophil-like HL-60 cells we used a siRNA approach to delineate the effect of STIM1 knock-down on NOX2 activity regulated by Ca2+ influx. Because the function of the STIM1 homolog, STIM2, is still unclear, we determined the consequence of STIM2 knock-down on Ca2+ and NOX2. STIM1 and STIM2 knock-down was effective and isoform specific when assayed by real-time PCR and Western blotting. Consistent with a unique role of STIM1 in the regulation of SOCE, STIM1, but not STIM2, siRNA significantly decreased Ca2+ influx induced by fMLF or the SERCA pump inhibitor thapsigargin. A redistribution of STIM1, originally localized intracellularly, near the plasma membrane was observed by confocal microscopy upon stimulation by fMLF. Inhibition of STIM1-induced SOCE led to a marked decrease in NOX2 activity while STIM2 siRNA had no effect. Thus, our results provide evidence for a role of STIM1 protein in the control of Ca2+ influx in neutrophils excluding a STIM2 involvement in this process. It also places STIM1 as a key modulator of NOX2 activity with a potential interest for anti-inflammatory pharmacological development.

Abstract
The canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) family of ion channels is implicated in many neuronal processes including calcium homeostasis, membrane excitability, synaptic transmission, and axon guidance. TRPC channels are postulated to be important in the functional neurobiology of the enteric nervous system (ENS); nevertheless, details for expression in the ENS are lacking. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry were used to study the expression and localization of TRPC channels. We found mRNA transcripts, protein on Western blots, and immunoreactivity (IR) for TRPC1/3/4/6 expressed in the small intestinal ENS of adult guinea pigs. TRPC1/3/4/6-IR was localized to distinct subpopulations of enteric neurons and was differentially distributed between the myenteric and submucosal divisions of the ENS. TRPC1-IR was widely distributed and localized to neurons with cholinergic, calretinin, and nitrergic neuronal immunochemical codes in the myenteric plexus. It was localized to both cholinergic and noncholinergic secretomotor neurons in the submucosal plexus. TRPC3-IR was found only in the submucosal plexus and was expressed exclusively by neuropeptide Y-IR neurons. TRPC4/6-IR was expressed in only a small population of myenteric neurons, but was abundantly expressed in the submucosal plexus. TRPC4/6-IR was coexpressed with both cholinergic and nitrergic neurochemical codes in the myenteric plexus. In the submucosal plexus, TRPC4/6-IR was expressed exclusively in noncholinergic secretomotor neurons. No TRPC1/3/4/6-IR was found in calbindin-IR neurons. TRPC3/4/6-IR was widely expressed along varicose nerve fibers and colocalized with synaptophysin-IR at putative neurotransmitter release sites. Our results suggest important roles for TRPC channels in ENS physiology and neuronal regulation of gut function.

Abstract
Regulation of bi-directional communication between intracellular Ca(2+) pools and surface Ca(2+) channels remains incompletely characterized. We report Ca(2+) release mediated by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP(3)R) and ryanodine receptor (RyR) pathways is diminished under actin cytoskeleton disruption in NG115-401L (401L) neuronal cells, yet despite truncated Ca(2+) release, Ca(2+) influx was not significantly altered in these experiments. However, disruption of cortical actin networks completely abolished IP(3)R induced Ca(2+) release, whereas RyR-mediated Ca(2+) release was preserved, albeit attenuated. Moreover, cortical actin disruption completely abolished IP(3)R and RyR linked Ca(2+) influx even though Ca(2+) pool sensitivities were different. These findings suggest discrete Ca(2+) store/Ca(2+) channel coupling mechanisms in the IP(3)R and RyR pathways as revealed by the differential sensitivity to actin perturbation.

Abstract
AIM The role of the calcium-conducting ion channel transient receptor potential canonical 6 (TRPC6) in macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) induced migration of mouse neutrophils was investigated. METHODS Neutrophil granulocytes isolated from murine bone marrow of wild-type (TRPC6+/+) and TRPC6 knockout (TRPC6)/)) mice were tested for the presence of TRPC6 channel expression using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reactions and immunocytochemistry. The effect of different stimuli (e.g. MIP-2, 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol, formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanin) on migration of isolated neutrophils was tested by two-dimensional (2D) migration assays, phalloidin staining and intracellular calcium imaging. RESULTS We found that neutrophil granulocytes express TRPC6 channels. MIP-2 induced fast cell migration of isolated neutrophils in a 2D celltracking system. Strikingly, MIP-2 was less potent in neutrophils derived from TRPC6)/) mice. These cells showed less phalloidin-coupled fluorescence and the pattern of cytosolic calcium transients was altered. CONCLUSIONS We describe in this paper for the first time a role for transient receptor potential (TRP) channels in migration of native lymphocytes as a new paradigm for the universal functional role of TRPs. Our data give strong evidence that TRPC6 operates downstream to CXC-type Gq-protein-coupled chemokine receptors upon stimulation with MIP-2 and is crucial for the arrangement of filamentous actin in migrating neutrophils. This is a novel cell function of TRP channel beyond their well-recognized role as universal cell sensors.

Abstract
Much work has focused on the electrophysiological properties of transient receptor potential channels. Recently, a novel aspect of importance emerged: the interplay of transient receptor potential channels with the cytoskeleton. Recent data suggest a direct interaction and functional repercussion for both binding partners. The bi-directionality of physical and functional interaction renders therefore, the cytoskeleton a potent integration point of complex biological signalling events, from both the cytoplasm and the extracellular space. In this minireview, we focus mostly on the interaction of the cytoskeleton with transient receptor potential vanilloid channels. Thereby, we point out the functional importance of cytoskeleton components both as modulator and as modulated downstream effector. The resulting implications for patho-biological situations are discussed.

Abstract
Upon stimulation, activation of NADPH oxidase complexes in neutrophils produces a burst of superoxide anions contributing to oxidative stress and the development of inflammatory process. Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE), whereby the depletion of intracellular stores induces extracellular calcium influx, is known to be a crucial element of NADPH oxidase regulation. However, the mechanistic basis mediating SOCE is still only partially understood, as is the signal-coupling pathway leading to modulation of store-operated channels. This review emphasizes the role of calcium influx in the control of the NADPH oxidase and summarizes the current knowledge of pathways mediating this extracellular calcium entry in neutrophils. Such investigations into the cross-talk between NADPH oxidase and calcium might allow the identification of novel pharmacological targets with clinical use, particularly in inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Ca(2+) influx has been shown to be essential for NADPH oxidase activity which is involved in the inflammatory process. Ca(2+) conditions underlying the oxidative response are clearly delineated. Here, we show that store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) is required at the beginning of NADPH oxidase activation in response to fMLF (N-formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine) in neutrophil-like HL-60 cells. When extracellular Ca(2+) is initially removed, early addition of Ca(2+) after stimulation causes a complete restoration of Ca(2+) entry and H(2)O(2) production. Both Ca(2+) entry and H(2)O(2) production are decreased by purported SOCE blockers, 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borane (2-APB) and SK&F 96365. Endogenously expressed TRPC (transient receptor potential canonical) homologues and Orai1 were investigated for their role in supporting store-operated Ca(2+) channels activity. TRPC1, TRPC6 and Orai1 knock-out by siRNA resulted in the inhibition of Ca(2+) influx and H(2)O(2) production in response to fMLF and thapsigargin while suppression of TRPC3 had no effect on thapsigargin induced-SOCE. 2-APB and SK&F 96365 were able to amplify the reduction of fMLF-stimulated Ca(2+) entry and H(2)O(2) production observed in cells transfected by TRPC3 siRNA. In summary, Ca(2+) influx in HL-60 cells relies on different membrane TRPC channels and Orai1 for allowing NADPH oxidase activation. TRPC3 primarily mediates SOCE-independent pathways and TRPC1, TRPC6 and Orai1 exclusively contribute to SOCE.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are a family of cation channels that play a key role in ion homeostasis and cell volume regulation. In addition, TRP channels are considered universal integrators of sensory information required for taste, vision, hearing, touch, temperature, and the detection of mechanical force. Seminal investigations exploring the molecular mechanisms of phototransduction in Drosophila have demonstrated that TRP channels operate within macromolecular complexes closely associated with the cytoskeleton. More recent evidence shows that mammalian TRP channels similarly connect to the cytoskeleton to affect cytoskeletal organization and cell adhesion via ion-transport-dependent and -independent mechanisms. In this review, we discuss new insights into the interplay between TRP channels and the cytoskeleton and provide recent examples of such interactions in different physiological systems.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are nonselective cation channels, several of which are expressed in striated muscle. Because the scaffolding protein Homer 1 has been implicated in TRP channel regulation, we hypothesized that Homer proteins play a significant role in skeletal muscle function. Mice lacking Homer 1 exhibited a myopathy characterized by decreased muscle fiber cross-sectional area and decreased skeletal muscle force generation. Homer 1 knockout myotubes displayed increased basal current density and spontaneous cation influx. This spontaneous cation influx in Homer 1 knockout myotubes was blocked by reexpression of Homer 1b, but not Homer 1a, and by gene silencing of TRPC1. Moreover, diminished Homer 1 expression in mouse models of Duchenne's muscular dystrophy suggests that loss of Homer 1 scaffolding of TRP channels may contribute to the increased stretch-activated channel activity observed in mdx myofibers. These findings provide direct evidence that Homer 1 functions as an important scaffold for TRP channels and regulates mechanotransduction in skeletal muscle.

Abstract
The epithelial Ca(2+) channel TRPV5 plays an essential role in transcellular Ca(2+) transport and is one of the most Ca(2+)-selective members of the transient receptor potential superfamily. Regulation of the abundance of TRPV5 at the cell surface is critical in body Ca(2+) homeostasis. However, little is known about the mechanisms underlying TRPV5 endo- and exocytosis. Here, we show that TRPV5 is constitutively internalized in a dynamin- and clathrin-dependent manner. Internalized TRPV5 first appears in small vesicular structures and then localizes to perinuclear structures positive for Rab11a. TRPV5 has a half-life of more than 8 h and is stable even after internalization from the cell surface for more than 3 h. Disruption of cell surface delivery of newly synthesized TRPV5 by brefeldin A does not reduce TRPV5-mediated Ca(2+) influx in cells, suggesting the presence of a stable intracellular pool of the channel capable of recycling back to the surface. Furthermore, the endocytic recycling kinetics is decreased upon treatment with Ca(2+) chelator BAPTA-AM, indicating that the channel's trafficking pathways are dynamically controlled by Ca(2+).

Abstract
Despite over a decade of research, only recently have the mechanisms governing transient receptor potential channel (TRPC) channel function begun to emerge, with an essential role for accessory proteins in this process. We previously identified a tyrosine phosphorylation event as critical in the plasma membrane translocation and activation of hTRPC4 channels following epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor activation. To further characterize the signaling events underlying this process, a yeast-two hybrid screen was performed on the C terminus of hTRPC4. The intracellular C-terminal region from proline 686 to leucine 977 was used to screen a human brain cDNA library. Two members of the spectrin family, alphaII- and betaV-spectrin, were identified as binding partners. The interaction of hTRPC4 with alphaII-spectrin and betaV-spectrin was confirmed by glutathione S-transferase pulldown and co-immunoprecipitation experiments. Deletion analysis identified amino acids 730-758 of hTRPC4 as critical for the interaction with this region located within a coiled-coil domain, juxtaposing the Ca(2+)/calmodulin- and IP(3)R-binding region (CIRB domain). This region is deleted in the proposed deltahTRPC4 splice variant form, which failed to undergo both EGF-induced membrane insertion and activation, providing a genetic mechanism for regulating channel activity. We also demonstrate that the exocytotic insertion and activation of hTRPC4 following EGF application is accompanied by dissociation from alphaII-spectrin. Furthermore, depletion of alphaII-spectrin by small interference RNA reduces the basal surface expression of alphahTRPC4 and prevents the enhanced membrane insertion in response to EGF application. Importantly, depletion of alphaII-spectrin did not affect the expression of the delta variant. Taken together, these results demonstrate that a direct interaction between hTRPC4 and the spectrin cytoskeleton is involved in the regulation of hTRPC4 surface expression and activation.

Abstract
Neutrophil's responses to G protein-coupled chemoattractants are highly dependent on store-operated calcium (Ca(2+)) entry (SOCE). Platelet-activating factor (PAF), a primary chemoattractant, simultaneously increases cytosolic-free Ca(2+), intracellular pH (pH(i)), ERK1/2, and Akt/protein kinase B (PKB) phosphorylation. In this study, we looked at the efficacy of several putative SOCE inhibitors and whether SOCE mediates intracellular alkalinization, ERK1/2, and Akt/PKB phosphorylation in bovine neutrophils. We demonstrated that the absence of external Ca(2+) and the presence of EGTA reduced the intracellular alkalinization and ERK1/2 phosphorylation induced by PAF, apparently via SOCE influx inhibition. Next, we tested the efficacy of several putative SOCE inhibitors such as 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB), capsaicin, flufenamic acid, 1-{beta-[3-(4-methoxy-phenyl)propoxy]-4-methoxyphenethyl}-1H-imidazole hydrochloride (SK&F 96365), and N-(4-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]phenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,3-thiadiazole-5-carboxamide (BTP2) on Ca(2+) entry induced by PAF or thapsigargin. 2-APB was the most potent SOCE inhibitor, followed by capsaicin and flufenamic acid. Conversely, SK&F 96365 reduced an intracellular calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)) peak but SOCE partially. BTP2 did not show an inhibitory effect on [Ca(2+)](i) following PAF stimuli. 2-APB strongly reduced the pH(i) recovery, whereas the effect of flufenamic acid and SK&F 96365 was partial. Capsaicin and BTP2 did not affect the pH(i) changes induced by PAF. Finally, we observed that 2-APB reduced the ERK1/2 and Akt phosphorylation completely, whereas the inhibition with flufenamic acid was partial. The results suggest that 2-APB is the most potent SOCE inhibitor and support a key role of SOCE in pH alkalinization and PI-3K-ERK1/2 pathway control. Finally, 2-APB could be an important tool to characterize Ca(2+) signaling in neutrophils.

Abstract
Recent studies associate cholesterol excess and atherosclerosis with inflammation. The link between these processes is not understood, but cholesterol is an important component of lipid rafts. Rafts are thought to concentrate membrane signaling molecules and thus regulate cell signaling through G protein-coupled pathways. We used methyl beta-cyclodextrin to deplete cholesterol from polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) rafts and thus study the effects of raft disruption on G protein-coupled Ca(2+) mobilization. Methyl beta-cyclodextrin had no effect on Ca(2+) store depletion by the G protein-coupled agonists platelet-activating factor or fMLP, but abolished agonist-stimulated Ca(2+) entry. Free cholesterol at very low concentrations regulated Ca(2+) entry into PMN via nonspecific Ca(2+) channels in a biphasic fashion. The specificity of cholesterol regulation for Ca(2+) entry was confirmed using thapsigargin studies. Responses to cholesterol appear physiologic because they regulate respiratory burst in a proportional biphasic fashion. Investigating further, we found that free cholesterol accumulated in PMN lipid raft fractions, promoting formation and polarization of membrane rafts. Finally, the transient receptor potential calcium channel protein TRPC1 redistributed to raft fractions in response to cholesterol. The uniformly biphasic relationships between cholesterol availability, Ca(2+) signaling and respiratory burst suggest that Ca(2+) influx and PMN activation are regulated by the quantitative relationships between cholesterol and other environmental lipid raft components. The association between symptomatic cholesterol excess and inflammation may therefore in part reflect free cholesterol- dependent changes in lipid raft structure that regulate immune cell Ca(2+) entry. Ca(2+) entry-dependent responses in other cell types may also reflect cholesterol bioavailability and lipid incorporation into rafts.

Abstract
Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) is a key regulator in the activation of leukocytes. 3,5-Bistrifluoromethyl pyrazole (BTP) derivatives have been identified recently as inhibitors of T lymphocyte activation. The inhibitory effect of one of these compounds, N-(4-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]phenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,3-thiadiazole-5-carboxamide (BTP2), appears to be a result of inhibition of SOC influx. Polymorphonuclear neutrophils provide effective protection against bacterial infection, but they are also involved in tissue damage during chronic inflammation. As for T lymphocytes, their activation relies on SOCE. We therefore investigated the effect of BTP2 on calcium homeostasis and functional responses of human neutrophils. BTP2 significantly inhibited the calcium influx after stimulation with thapsigargin or fMLF. This inhibition was seen after 5 min of incubation with 10 microM BTP2 and after 24 h with lower concentrations. With 24 h incubation, the effect appeared irreversible, as the removal of BTP2 3 h before the experiment did not reduce this inhibition in granulocyte-differentiated HL60 cells. In human neutrophils, BTP2 reduced superoxide anion production by 82% after 24 h of incubation. On the contrary, phagocytosis, intraphagosomal radical production, and bacterial killing by neutrophils were not reduced significantly, even after 24 h treatment with 10 microM BTP2. This work suggests that BTP2 could become an important tool to characterize calcium signaling in neutrophils. Furthermore, BTP2 or related compounds could constitute a new approach to the down-regulation of neutrophils in chronic inflammatory disease without compromising antibacterial host defense.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are members of a relatively newly described family of cation channels that display a wide range of properties and mechanisms of activation. The exact physiological function and regulation of most of these channels have not yet been conclusively determined. Studies over the past decade have revealed important features of the channels that contribute to their function. These include homomeric interactions between TRP monomers, selective heteromeric interactions within members of the same subfamily, interactions of TRPs with accessory proteins and assembly into macromolecular signaling complexes, and regulation within functionally distinct cellular microdomains. Further, distinct constitutive and regulated vesicular trafficking mechanisms have a critical role not only in controlling the surface expression of TRP channels but also their activation in response to stimuli. A number of cellular components such as cytoskeletal and scaffolding proteins also contribute to TRP channel trafficking. Thus, mechanisms involved in the assembly and trafficking of TRP channels control their plasma membrane expression and critically impact their function and regulation.

Abstract
Actomyosin contractility regulates various cell biological processes including cytokinesis, adhesion and migration. While in lower eukaryotes, alpha-kinases control actomyosin relaxation, a similar role for mammalian alpha-kinases has yet to be established. Here, we examined whether TRPM7, a cation channel fused to an alpha-kinase, can affect actomyosin function. We demonstrate that activation of TRPM7 by bradykinin leads to a Ca(2+)- and kinase-dependent interaction with the actomyosin cytoskeleton. Moreover, TRPM7 phosphorylates the myosin IIA heavy chain. Accordingly, low overexpression of TRPM7 increases intracellular Ca2+ levels accompanied by cell spreading, adhesion and the formation of focal adhesions. Activation of TRPM7 induces the transformation of these focal adhesions into podosomes by a kinase-dependent mechanism, an effect that can be mimicked by pharmacological inhibition of myosin II. Collectively, our results demonstrate that regulation of cell adhesion by TRPM7 is the combined effect of kinase-dependent and -independent pathways on actomyosin contractility.

[PMID: 16168959 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2005.08.239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2005] [Accepted: 08/27/2005] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
We examined the effects of 4-chloro-m-cresol (4-CmC, a potent and specific activator of ryanodine receptors) on Ca(2+)-release/influx and respiratory burst in freshly isolated human PMN as well as HL60 cells. 4-CmC induces Ca(2+) store-depletion in a dose-dependent manner at concentrations between 400muM and 3mM, however no dose-dependent effect on Ca(2+)-influx was found. 4-CmC depleted Ca(2+) stores that were shared with the GPC agonists such as fMLP and PAF, and therefore 4-CmC presumably depletes Ca(2+) from ER. Since the authentic ligand for RyR is cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), we assessed the functional relevance of RyR in PMN by studying the presence and function of membrane-bound ADP-ribosyl cyclase (CD38) in PMN. First, expression of CD38 was confirmed by RT-PCR using cDNA from HL60 cells. Second, PMN from trauma patients showed significantly enhanced CD38 expression than those from healthy volunteers. In addition, although no chemotaxis effect was detected by 4-CmC, it stimulated respiratory burst in PMN in a dose-dependent manner. Our findings suggest that RyRs exist in human PMN and that RyR pathway may play an active role in inflammatory PMN calcium signaling. 8-Br-cADPR and cyclic 3-deaza-ADP did not have inhibitory effects either on 4-CmC-induced Ca(2+) store-depletion or on respiratory burst, on the other hand, PLC inhibitor, U73122, completely attenuated both 4-CmC-induced Ca(2+) store-depletion and respiratory burst. Although it has been used as a specific activator of RyR, 4-CmC has non-specific effects which cause Ca(2+) store-depletion and respiratory burst at least in human PMN.

Distinct effects of N-ethylmaleimide on formyl peptide- and cyclopiazonic acid-induced Ca2+ signals through thiol modification in neutrophils. Biochem Pharmacol 2005; 70:1320-9. [PMID: 16143313 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2005.07.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2005] [Revised: 07/11/2005] [Accepted: 07/22/2005] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
In this study, we demonstrate that N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), a cell permeable thiol-alkylating agent, enhanced the [Ca2+]i rise caused by stimulation with cyclopiazonic acid (CPA), a sarcoplasmic-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor, in rat neutrophils. In addition, NEM attenuated the formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP)-induced [Ca2+]i rise whether NEM was added to cells prior to or after fMLP stimulation. Moreover, application of NEM after fMLP activation in the absence of external Ca2+ inhibited the Ca2+ signal upon addition of Ca2+ to the medium. Similar patterns were also obtained by using 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB), a cell impermeable dithiol-oxidizing agent, which replaced NEM in the CPA- and fMLP-induced [Ca2+]i rise experiments. Treatment with dithiothreitol (DTT), a cell permeable dithiol-reducing agent, N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC), a cell permeable monothiol-reducing agent, and tris-(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine (TCEP), a cell impermeable reductant without a thiol group, all rescued the fMLP-induced Ca2+ signal from NEM. Rat neutrophils express the mRNA encoding for transient receptor potential (TRP) C6, inositol trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) 2 and IP3R3. NEM had no effect on the mitochondrial membrane potential. NEM could restore the polarization and F-actin accumulation of fMLP-treated cells to those of the control. In the absence of external Ca2+, NEM rendered the CPA-induced [Ca2+]i elevation persistently but inhibited the fMLP-induced Ca2+ spike, which was reversed by tris-(2-cyanoethyl)phosphine (TCP), a cell permeable reductant without a thiol group. DTNB did not affect the Ca2+ spike caused by fMLP. These results indicate that through protein thiol oxidation, NEM affects the receptor-activated and the store depletion-derived Ca2+ signals in an opposing manner.
