Capacitative Ca2+ entry regulates Ca(2+)-sensitive adenylyl cyclases.

ABSTRACT: A number of the currently described adenylyl cyclase species can be regulated by Ca2+ in the submicromolar concentration range in in vitro assays. The regulatory significance of these observations hinges on whether a physiological elevation in intracellular Ca2+ can regulate these cyclase activities in intact cells. However, achieving a physiological elevation in cytosolic Ca2+ is complicated by the fact that hormonal increases in cytosolic Ca2+ can be accompanied by additional effects, such as liberation of beta gamma-subunits of G-proteins and activation of protein kinase C, which can have disparate type-specific effects on cyclase activities. Therefore we have devised a strategy based on capacitative Ca2+ entry to show that, when types I and VI adenylyl cyclase are expressed in human embryonic kidney 293 cells, they are stimulated and inhibited respectively by Ca2+ entry. Blockade of Ca2+ entry by La3+ ions blocks the effects of Ca2+ entry on cyclic AMP synthesis. These studies establish that adenylyl cyclases deemed to be sensitive to Ca2+ in in vitro assays can be regulated by physiological Ca2+ entry, and therefore, such cyclases are poised to respond to changes in intracellular Ca2+ in tissues in which they are expressed.

Capacitative Ca2+ entry via Orai1 and stromal interacting molecule 1 (STIM1) regulates adenylyl cyclase type 8.

Project description:Capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE), which occurs through the plasma membrane as a result of Ca(2+) store depletion, is mediated by stromal interacting molecule 1 (STIM1), a sensor of intracellular Ca(2+) store content, and the pore-forming component Orai1. However, additional factors, such as C-type transient receptor potential (TRPC) channels, may also participate in the CCE apparatus. To explore whether the store-dependent Ca(2+) entry reconstituted by coexpression of Orai1 and STIM1 has the functional properties of CCE, we used the Ca(2+)-calmodulin stimulated adenylyl cyclase type 8 (AC8), which responds selectively to CCE, whereas other modes of Ca(2+) entry, including those activated by arachidonate and the ionophore ionomycin, are ineffective. In addition, the Ca(2+) entry mediated by previous CCE candidates, diacylglycerol-activated TRPC channels, does not activate AC8. Here, we expressed Orai1 and STIM1 in HEK293 cells and saw a robust increment in CCE, and a proportional increase in CCE-stimulated AC8 activity. Inhibitors of the CCE assembly process ablated the effects on cyclase activity in both AC8-overexpressing HEK293 cells and insulin-secreting MIN6 cells endogenously expressing Ca(2+)-sensitive AC isoforms. AC8 is believed to be closely associated with the source of CCE; indeed, not only were AC8, Orai1, and STIM1 colocalized at the plasma membrane but also all three proteins occurred in lipid rafts. Together, our data indicate that Orai1 and STIM1 can be integral components of the cAMP and CCE microdomain associated with adenylyl cyclase type 8.

Activity-evoked capacitative Ca2+ entry: implications in synaptic plasticity.

Project description:The Ca2+ influx controlled by intracellular Ca2+ stores, called store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOC), occurs in various eukaryotic cells, but whether CNS neurons are endowed with SOC capability and how they may operate have been contentious issues. Using Ca2+ imaging, we present evidence for the presence of SOC in cultured hippocampal pyramidal neurons. Depletion of internal Ca2+ stores by thapsigargin caused intracellular Ca2+ elevation, which was prevented by SOC channel inhibitors 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB), SKF96365, and La3+. Interestingly, these inhibitors also accelerated the decay of NMDA-induced Ca2+ transients without affecting their peak amplitude. In addition, SOC channel inhibitors attenuated tetanus-induced dendritic Ca2+ accumulation and long-term potentiation at Schaffer collateral-CA1 synapses in hippocampal slice preparations. These data suggest a novel link between ionotropic receptor-activated SOC and neuroplasticity.

Different phospholipase-C-coupled receptors differentially regulate capacitative and non-capacitative Ca2+ entry in A7r5 cells.

Project description:Several receptors, including those for AVP (Arg8-vasopressin) and 5-HT (5-hydroxytryptamine), share an ability to stimulate PLC (phospholipase C) and so production of IP3 (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate) and DAG (diacylglycerol) in A7r5 vascular smooth muscle cells. Our previous analysis of the effects of AVP on Ca2+ entry [Moneer, Dyer and Taylor (2003) Biochem. J. 370, 439-448] showed that arachidonic acid released from DAG stimulated NO synthase. NO then stimulated an NCCE (non-capacitative Ca2+ entry) pathway, and, via cGMP and protein kinase G, it inhibited CCE (capacitative Ca2+ entry). This reciprocal regulation ensured that, in the presence of AVP, all Ca2+ entry occurred via NCCE to be followed by a transient activation of CCE only when AVP was removed [Moneer and Taylor (2002) Biochem. J. 362, 13-21]. We confirm that, in the presence of AVP, all Ca2+ entry occurs via NCCE, but 5-HT, despite activating PLC and evoking release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores, stimulates Ca2+ entry only via CCE. We conclude that two PLC-coupled receptors differentially regulate CCE and NCCE. We also address evidence that, in some A7r5 cells lines, AVP fails either to stimulate NCCE or inhibit CCE [Brueggemann, Markun, Barakat, Chen and Byron (2005) Biochem. J. 388, 237-244]. Quantitative PCR analysis suggests that these cells predominantly express TRPC1 (transient receptor potential canonical 1), whereas cells in which AVP reciprocally regulates CCE and NCCE express a greater variety of TRPC subtypes (TRPC1=6>2>3).

Bicarbonate-sensitive soluble and transmembrane adenylyl cyclases in peripheral chemoreceptors.

Project description:Stimulation of the carotid body (CB) chemoreceptors by hypercapnia triggers a reflex ventilatory response via a cascade of cellular events, which includes generation of cAMP. However, it is not known if molecular CO2/HCO3(-) and/or H(+) mediate this effect and how these molecules contribute to cAMP production. We previously reported that the CB highly expresses HCO3(-)-sensitive soluble adenylyl cyclase (sAC). In the present study we systematically characterize the role of sAC in the CB, comparing the effect of isohydric hypercapnia (IH) in cAMP generation through activation of sAC or transmembrane-adenylyl cyclase (tmAC). Pharmacological deactivation of sAC and tmAC decreased the CB cAMP content in normocapnia and IH with no differences between these two conditions. Changes from normocapnia to IH did not effect the degree of PKA activation and the carotid sinus nerve discharge frequency. sAC and tmAC are functional in CB but intracellular elevations in CO2/HCO3(-) in IH conditions on their own are insufficient to further activate these enzymes, suggesting that the hypercapnic response is dependent on secondary acidosis.

Modulation of STIM1 and capacitative Ca2+ entry by the endoplasmic reticulum luminal oxidoreductase ERp57.

Project description:STIM1 is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane Ca(2+) sensor responsible for activation of store-operated Ca(2+) influx. We discovered that STIM1 oligomerization and store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOC) are modulated by the ER oxidoreductase ERp57. ERp57 interacts with the ER luminal domain of STIM1, with this interaction involving two conserved cysteine residues, C(49) and C(56). SOC is accelerated in the absence of ERp57 and inhibited in C(49) and C(56) mutants of STIM1. We show that ERp57, by ER luminal interaction with STIM1, has a modulatory role in capacitative Ca(2+) entry. This is the first demonstration of a protein involved in ER intraluminal regulation of STIM1.

Insights into the residence in lipid rafts of adenylyl cyclase AC8 and its regulation by capacitative calcium entry.

Project description:Adenylyl cyclases (ACs) are a family of critically important signaling molecules that are regulated by multiple pathways. Adenylyl cyclase 8 (AC8) is a Ca(2+) stimulated isoform that displays a selective regulation by capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE), the process whereby the entry of Ca(2+) into cells is triggered by the emptying of intracellular stores. This selectivity was believed to be achieved through the localization of AC8 in lipid raft microdomains, along with components of the CCE apparatus. In the present study, we show that an intact leucine zipper motif is required for the efficient N-linked glycosylation of AC8, and that this N-linked glycosylation is important to target AC8 into lipid rafts. Disruption of the leucine zipper by site-directed mutagenesis results in the elimination of N-glycosylated forms and their exclusion from lipid rafts. Mutants of AC8 that cannot be N-glycosylated are not demonstrably associated with rafts, although they can still be regulated by CCE; however, raft integrity is required for the regulation of these mutants. These findings suggest that raft localized proteins in addition to AC8 are needed to mediate its regulation by CCE.

Inhibitors of membranous adenylyl cyclases.

Project description:Membranous adenylyl cyclases (mACs) constitute a family of nine isoforms with different expression patterns. Studies with mAC gene knockout mice provide evidence for the notion that AC isoforms play distinct (patho)physiological roles. Consequently, there is substantial interest in the development of isoform-selective mAC inhibitors. Here, we review the current literature on mAC inhibitors. Structurally diverse inhibitors targeting the catalytic site and allosteric sites (e.g. the diterpene site) have been identified. The catalytic site of mACs accommodates both purine and pyrimidine nucleotides, with a hydrophobic pocket constituting a major affinity-conferring domain for substituents at the 2'- and 3'-O-ribosyl position of nucleotides. BODIPY-forskolin stimulates ACs 1 and 5 but inhibits AC2. However, so far, no inhibitor has been examined at all mAC isoforms, and data obtained with mAC inhibitors in intact cells have not always been interpreted cautiously enough. Future strategies for the development of the mAC inhibitor field are discussed critically.

Evidence for a non-capacitative Ca2+ entry during [Ca2+] oscillations.

Project description:Current models for the agonist-induced activation of Ca2+ entry from the extracellular medium in non-excitable cells generally emphasize a capacitative mechanism whereby Ca2+ entry is activated simply as a result of the emptying of intracellular Ca2+ stores, without any direct involvement of inositol phosphates. To date, the activation and control of Ca2+ entry have generally been studied under conditions where the agonist-sensitive stores undergo a profound and sustained depletion. However, responses under more normal physiological conditions typically involve the cyclical release and refilling of the stores associated with oscillations in [Ca2+], and the nature and control of entry under these conditions has received relatively little attention. In this study, using isolated cells from the exocrine avian nasal gland as a model system, we show that: (a) the agonist-enhanced rate of Mn2+ quench is independent of the cyclical emptying and refilling of the agonist-sensitive Ca2+ pool during oscillations; (b) the Ca2+ entry pathway is maintained in an activated state for extended periods following inhibition of oscillations under conditions in which agonist-sensitive stores can be shown to be full; (c) no Ca2+ entry could be detected in oscillating cells in experiments that followed a definitive protocol for the demonstration of capacitative entry; and (d) on initial exposure to low agonist concentrations, activation of Ca2+ entry preceded any detectable release of Ca2+ from the stores. We conclude that the essential characteristics of the control of Ca2+ entry during oscillations are incompatible with current capacitative models.

Adenylyl cyclases and TRPV4 mediate Ca2+/cAMP dynamics to enhance fluid flow-induced osteogenesis in osteocytes.

Project description:Bone adapts to physical forces and this process is dependent on osteocyte mechanotransduction. One way osteocytes sense mechanical stimulation is through the primary cilium, a sensory organelle that triggers intracellular signaling cascades in response to fluid shear. Our lab previously determined that flow-induced ciliary Ca2+ influx and changes in cytosolic cAMP levels are critical for osteogenesis. We also identified two proteins important for osteocyte mechanotransduction: transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) and adenylyl cyclase 6 (AC6). Interestingly, disrupting the Ca2+-binding ability of these proteins results in loss of function. Although knockdowns of TRPV4 and AC6 disrupt osteogenesis, there is no definitive evidence linking them to Ca2+/cAMP dynamics that facilitate osteocyte mechanotransduction. We therefore transfected MLO-Y4 osteocytes with AC3/6 and TRPV4 overexpression plasmids that fail to interact with Ca2+ and observed the response to fluid shear. Indeed, mutant groups exhibited adverse changes in cAMP and lower mRNA expression of an osteogenic marker, COX-2, at the onset of flow. This pattern persisted for AC3 and TRPV4 but we detected no difference in AC6 at longer exposure to flow. These results suggest TRPV4 and ACs mediate Ca2+/cAMP dynamics that are important for osteocyte mechanotransduction. These mechanisms are potential targets for therapeutics to combat bone loss and should be investigated further.

Stimulation of Drosophila TrpL by capacitative Ca2+ entry.

Project description:Trp-like protein (TrpL, where Trp is transient receptor-potential protein) of Drosophila, a non-selective cation channel activated in photoreceptor cells by a phospholipase C-dependent mechanism, is thought to be a prototypical receptor-activated channel. Our previous studies showed that TrpL channels are not activated by depletion of internal Ca2+ stores when expressed in Sf9 cells. Using fura-2 to measure cation influx via TrpL, and cell-attached patch recordings to monitor TrpL single-channel activity directly, we have found a thapsigargin-induced increase in TrpL activity in the presence of extracellular bivalent cations, with Ca2+>Sr2+>> Ba2+. The increase in TrpL channel activity was blocked by concentrations of La3+ that completely inhibited endogenous capacitative Ca2+ entry (CCE), but have no effect on TrpL, suggesting that TrpL exhibits trans-stimulation by cation entry via CCE. TrpL has two putative calmodulin (CaM)-binding domains, designated CBS-1 and CBS-2. To determine which site may be required for stimulation of TrpL by the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), a chimaeric construct was created in which the C-terminal domain of TrpL containing CBS-2 was attached to human TrpC1, a short homologue of Trp that is not activated by depletion of internal Ca2+ stores or by a rise in [Ca2+]i. This gain-of-function mutant, designated TrpC1-TrpL, exhibited trans-stimulation by Ca2+ entry via CCE. Examination of CaM binding in gel-overlay experiments showed that TrpL and the TrpC1-TrpL chimaera bound CaM, but TrpC1 or a truncated version of TrpL lacking CBS-2 did not. These results suggest that only CBS-2 binds CaM in native TrpL and that the C-terminal domain containing this site is important for trans-stimulation of TrpL by CCE.
