Abstract
Increasing evidence suggests that simply reducing β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques may not significantly affect the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). There is also increasing evidence indicating that AD progression is driven by a vicious cycle of soluble Aβ-induced neuronal hyperactivity. In support of this, it has recently been shown that genetically and pharmacologically limiting ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2) open time prevents neuronal hyperactivity, memory impairment, dendritic spine loss and neuronal cell death in AD mouse models. By contrast, increased RyR2 open probability (Po) exacerbates the onset of familial AD-associated neuronal dysfunction and induces AD-like defects in the absence of AD-causing gene mutations. Thus, RyR2-dependent modulation of neuronal hyperactivity represents a promising new target for combating AD.

Abstract
Abnormal calcium homeostasis, activation of protease calpain, generation of p25 and hyperactivation of cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) have all been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurogenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease. We have recently shown that extracellular cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (eCIRP) induces Cdk5 activation via p25. However, the precise molecular mechanism by which eCIRP regulates calcium signaling and calpain remains to be addressed. We hypothesized that eCIRP regulates p25 via Ca2+-dependent calpain activation. eCIRP increased calpain activity and decreased the endogenous calpain inhibitor calpastatin in Neuro 2a (N2a) cells. Calpain inhibition with calpeptin attenuated eCIRP-induced calpain activity and p25. eCIRP specifically upregulated cytosolic calpain 1, and calpain 1 silencing attenuated the eCIRP-induced increase in p25. eCIRP stimulation increased cytosolic free Ca2+, especially in hippocampal neuronal HT22 cells, which was attenuated by the eCIRP inhibitor Compound 23 (C23). Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) inhibition using 2-aminoethoxy-diphenyl-borate or xestospongin-C (X-C), interleukin-6 receptor alpha (IL-6Rα)-neutralization, and phospholipase C (PLC) inhibition with U73122 attenuated eCIRP-induced Ca2+ increase, while Ca2+ influx across the plasma membrane remained unaffected by eCIRP. Finally, C23, IL-6Rα antibody, U73122 and X-C attenuated eCIRP-induced p25 in HT-22 cells. In conclusion, the current study uncovers eCIRP-triggered Ca2+ release from ER stores in an IL-6Rα/PLC/IP3-dependent manner as a novel molecular mechanism underlying eCIRP's induction of Cdk5 activity and potential involvement in neurodegeneration.
