The size of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-sensitive Ca2+ stores depends on inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate concentration.

ABSTRACT: An explanation of the complex effects of hormones on intracellular Ca2+ requires that the intracellular actions of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and the relationships between intracellular Ca2+ stores are fully understood. We have examined the kinetics of 45Ca2+ efflux from pre-loaded intracellular stores after stimulation with Ins(1,4,5)P3 or the stable phosphorothioate analogue, Ins(1,4,5)P3[S]3, by simultaneous addition of one of them with glucose/hexokinase to rapidly deplete the medium of ATP. Under these conditions, a maximal concentration of either Ins(1,4,5)P3 or Ins(1,4,5)P3[S]3 evoked rapid efflux of about half of the accumulated 45Ca2+, and thereafter the efflux was the same as occurred under control conditions. Submaximal concentrations of Ins(1,4,5)P3 or Ins(1,4,5)P3[S]3 caused a smaller rapid initial efflux of 45Ca2+, after which the efflux was similar whatever the concentration of Ins(1,4,5)P3 or Ins(1,4,5)P3[S]3 present. The failure of submaximal concentrations of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,4,5)P3[S]3 to mobilize fully the Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive Ca2+ stores despite prolonged incubation was not due either to inactivation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 or to desensitization of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor. The results suggest that the size of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 sensitive Ca2+ stores depends upon the concentration of Ins(1,4,5)P3.

Project description:AIMS:Phospholamban (PLB) is the key regulator of the cardiac Ca2+ pump (SERCA2a)-mediated sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ stores. We recently reported that PLB is highly concentrated in the nuclear envelope (NE) from where it can modulate perinuclear Ca2+ handling of the cardiomyocytes (CMs). Since inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptor (IP3R) mediates nuclear Ca2+ release, we examined whether the nuclear pool of PLB regulates IP3-induced nuclear Ca2+ handling. METHODS AND RESULTS:Fluo-4 based confocal Ca2+ imaging was performed to measure Ca2+ dynamics across both nucleus and cytosol in saponin-permeabilized CMs isolated from wild-type (WT) or PLB-knockout (PLB-KO) mice. At diastolic intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i?=?100?nM), the Fab fragment of the monoclonal PLB antibody (anti-PLB Fab) facilitated the formation and increased the length of spontaneous Ca2+ waves (SCWs) originating from the nuclear region in CMs from WT but not from PLB-KO mice. We next examined nuclear Ca2+ activities at basal condition and after sequential addition of IP3, anti-PLB Fab, and the IP3R inhibitor 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB) at a series of [Ca2+]i. In WT mice, at 10?nM [Ca2+]i where ryanodine receptor (RyR2) based spontaneous Ca2+ sparks rarely occurred, IP3 increased fluorescence amplitude (F/F0) of overall nuclear region to 1.19?±?0.02. Subsequent addition of anti-PLB Fab significantly decreased F/F0 to 1.09?±?0.02. At 50?nM [Ca2+]i, anti-PLB Fab not only decreased the overall nuclear F/F0 previously elevated by IP3, but also increased the amplitude and duration of spark-like nuclear Ca2+ release events. These nuclear Ca2+ releases were blocked by 2-APB. At 100?nM [Ca2+]i, IP3 induced short SCWs originating from nucleus. Anti-PLB Fab transformed those short waves into long SCWs with propagation from the nucleus into the cytosol. In contrast, neither nuclear nor cytosolic Ca2+ dynamics was affected by anti-PLB Fab in CMs from PLB-KO mice in all these conditions. Furthermore, in WT CMs pretreated with RyR2 blocker tetracaine, IP3 and anti-PLB Fab still increased the magnitude of nuclear Ca2+ release but failed to regenerate SCWs. Finally, anti-PLB Fab increased low Ca2+ affinity mag-fluo 4 fluorescence intensity in the lumen of NE of nuclei isolated from WT but not in PLB-KO mice. CONCLUSION:PLB regulates nuclear Ca2+ handling. By increasing Ca2+ uptake into lumen of the NE and perhaps other perinuclear membranes, the acute reversal of PLB inhibition decreases global Ca2+ concentration at rest in the nucleoplasm, and increases Ca2+ release into the nucleus, through mechanisms involving IP3R and RyR2 in the vicinity.
