Project description:STIM1 is a Ca2+ sensor of intracellular Ca2+ stores and essentially activates the Ca2+ entry channels of the plasma membrane. STIM1 is predicted to activate transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels and Orai channels, and has a critical role in promoting the development of cardiac hypertrophy. Gene array experiments were performed to analyze the effects of STIM1 deficiency using total RNA from the left ventricles of WT sham, WT TAC, STIM1KO sham and STIM1KO TAC 4 weeks after the operation.

Project description:T cell activation following antigen binding to the T cell receptor (TCR) involves the mobilization of intracellular calcium (Ca2+) to activate the key transcription factors NFAT and NF-κB. The mechanism of NFAT activation by Ca2+ has been determined; however, the role of Ca2+ in controlling NF-κB signaling is poorly understood and the source of Ca2+ required for NF-κB activation is unknown. We demonstrate that TCR- but not TNF- induced NF-κB signaling upstream of IκB kinase (IKK) activation absolutely requires the influx of extracellular Ca2+ via STIM1-dependent CRAC/Orai channels. We further show that Ca2+ influx controls phosphorylation of the NF-κB protein p65 on Ser536 and that this post- translational modification controls its nuclear localization and transcriptional activation. Notably our data reveal that this role for Ca2+ is entirely separate from its upstream control of IκBα degradation, thereby identifying a novel Ca2+- dependent distal step in TCR-induced NF-κB activation. Finally, we demonstrate that this control of distal signaling occurs via Ca2+-dependent PKCk-mediated phosphorylation of p65. Thus, we establish the source of Ca2+ required for TCR induced NF-kB activation and we define a new distal Ca2+-dependent checkpoint in TCR-induced NF-kB signaling that has broad implications for the control of immune cell development and T cell functional specificity. 3 treatments were analyzed, with biological replicates for each treatment. In addition, three timepoints (1 hour, 4 hour, and 8 hour) were examined for each treatment, as well as an untreated control. In total 19 samples were analyzed

Project description:Ca2 + signaling plays a significant role in development of the vertebrate nervous system where it regulates neurite growth as well as synapse and neurotransmitter specification (Rosenberg and Spitzer, 2011). Elucidating the role of Ca2 + signaling in neuronal development has been largely restricted to either small animal models or primary cultures. Here we derived human neural precursor cells (NPCs) from human embryonic stem cells to understand the functional significance of a less understood arm of calcium signaling, Store-operated Ca2+ entry or SOCE, in neuronal development. Human NPCs exhibited robust SOCE, which was significantly attenuated by expression of a stable shRNA-miR targeted towards the SOCE molecule STIM1. Along with the plasma membrane channel Orai, STIM is an essential component of SOCE in many cell types where it regulates gene expression. Therefore, we measured global gene expression in human NPCs with and without STIM1 knockdown. Interestingly, pathways down-regulated through STIM1 knockdown were related to cell proliferation and DNA replication processes whereas post-synaptic signaling was identified as an up-regulated process. To understand the functional significance of these gene expression changes we measured the self-renewal capacity of NPCs with STIM1 knockdown. These demonstrated significantly reduced neurosphere size and number as compared to control cells. Moreover, spontaneous differentiation towards the neuronal lineage was enhanced. These findings demonstrate that STIM1 mediated SOCE in human NPCs regulates gene expression changes, that in vivo are likely to physiologically modulate the self-renewal and differentiation of NPCs.

Project description:STIM1 is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium (Ca2+) sensor that serves to replenish ER Ca2+ stores in response to ER Ca2+ depletion through gating of plasmalemmal Orai1 channels in a process known as store operated calcium entry (SOCE). Previously, we have shown that SOCE is impaired in the diabetic pancreatic β cell; however, the consequences of reduced β cell SOCE have not been well studied. To test this, we generated mice with pancreatic β cell specific deletion of STIM1 (STIM1Δβ). Our results revealed a striking sexual dimorphism in metabolic phenotypes when STIM1Δβ mice were challenged with high fat diet for 8 weeks. Male STIM1Δβ mice showed no differences in total weight, lean or fat mass, or glucose tolerance compared to WT littermate controls. In contrast, female STIM1Δβ mice displayed significantly increased total body weight, fat mass, and reduced glucose tolerance, in vivo glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and β cell mass compared to WT littermate controls, while insulin sensitivity, food intake, and energy expenditure were unchanged. To investigate mechanisms underlying these findings, RNA sequencing was performed in isolated islets and revealed altered 17-beta estradiol (E2) signaling, lipid metabolism, epithelial cell differentiation and decreased noncanonical estradiol receptor GPER. Consistent with this, alpha cell mass was increased in female STIM1Δβ, while proteomics and immunoblot analysis of STIM1 knockout (STIM1KO) INS-1 beta cells revealed reduce insulin expression and increased glucagon expression, suggesting STIM1 may be required for the maintenance of β cell identity. To this end, we show that a reduction of a noncanonical estradiol receptor GPER in STIM1 deficient islets contributes to the marked sexual dimorphism observed during beta cell dysfunction in female STIM1Δβ mice. This present study delineates a sexually dimorphic regulation of STIM1 in the maintenance of pancreatic beta cell identity through GPER and may expand the field of therapeutic approaches to diabetes. Our findings demonstrate the importance of STIM1 and GPER expression stability in the anti-diabetogenic response from estradiol.

Project description:T follicular helper (TFH) cells promote affinity maturation of B cells in germinal centers (GCs), whereas T follicular regulatory (TFR) cells limit GC reaction. Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) through Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels mediated by STIM and ORAI proteins is a fundamental signaling pathway in T lymphocytes. Here we show that SOCE is required for the differentiation and function of both TFH and TFR cells. Conditional deletion of Stim1 and Stim2 genes in T cells or Treg cells results in spontaneous autoantibody production and humoral autoimmunity. Conversely, antibody-mediated immune responses following viral infection critically depend on SOCE in TFH cells. Mechanistically, STIM1 and STIM2 control early TFR and TFH cell differentiation through NFAT-mediated IRF4, BATF and Bcl-6 expression. SOCE plays a dual role in GC response by controlling TFH and TFR cell function, thus enabling protective B cell responses and preventing humoral autoimmunity. RNAseq analyses of WT and Stim1Stim2 DKO follicular T cells and non-follicular T cells; 4-6 mice per cohort in duplicates. Mice were infected for 10 days with LCMV.

Project description:T regulatory (Treg) cells maintain immunological tolerance and their depletion in humans and mice results in autoimmune disease. The development of Treg cells in the thymus, their differentiation into effector T cells and their activation depends on Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels formed by STIM and ORAI proteins. Gene expression analysis of murine Treg cells with genetic deletion of Stim1 and Stim2 genes after their development in the thymus shows an important role of CRAC channel-mediated Ca2+ influx in the regulation of transcription factors and signaling pathways that control the identity and differentiation of Treg cells.

Project description:Immunity to fungal infections is mediated by cells of the innate and adaptive immune system. Activation of immune cells requires Ca2+ influx through the Ca2+ channel ORAI1, which is activated by stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1). Th17 cells are essential for immunity to C. albicans infection and require Ca2+ influx for expression of IL-17A and other Th17 cytokines. In mice, deletion of STIM1 and thus Ca2+ influx in all immune cells enhanced susceptibility to mucosal C. albicans infection, whereas T cell-specific deletion of STIM1 impaired immunity to systemic C. albicans infection. STIM1 deletion in CD4 T cells had different effects on gene expression programs in pathogenic (proinflammatory) and non-pathogenic Th17 cells. STIM1 deletion in non-pathogenic Th17 cells, which are required for antifungal immunity, compromised the expression of genes in several metabolic pathways including Foxo and HIF-1a signaling as well as the TCA cycle and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Consequently, STIM1 deficient non-pathogenic Th17 cells had impaired glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration. By contrast, STIM1 deletion in pathogenic Th17 cells showed only attenuated mitochondrial function but normal glycolysis.

Project description:In the mammalian brain TRPC channels, a family of Ca2+-permeable cation channels, are involved in a variety of processes from neuronal growth and synapse formation to transmitter release, synaptic transmission and plasticity. The molecular appearance and operation of native TRPC channels, however, remained poorly understood. Here we used high-resolution proteomics to show that TRPC channels in the rodent brain are macro-molecular complexes of more than 1 MDa in size that results from co-assembly of the tetrameric channel core with an ensemble of interacting proteins (interactome). The core(s) of TRPC1, 4, 5-containing channels are mostly heteromers with defined stoichiometries for each subtype, while TRPC 3, 6, 7 preferentially form homomers. In addition, TRPC1, 4, 5-channels may co-assemble with the metabotropic glutamate receptor mGluR1 thus guaranteeing both specificity and reliability of channel activation via the phospholipase-Ca2+ pathway. Our results unveil the subunit composition of native TRPC channels and resolve molecular details underlying their activation.
