PLCζ Induced Ca2+ Oscillations in Mouse Eggs Involve a Positive Feedback Cycle of Ca2+ Induced InsP3 Formation From Cytoplasmic PIP2
Egg activation at fertilization in mammalian eggs is caused by a series of transient increases in the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration, referred to as Ca2+ oscillations. It is widely accepted that these Ca2+ oscillations are initiated by a sperm derived phospholipase C isoform, PLCζ that hydrolyses its substrate PIP2 to produce the Ca2+ releasing messenger InsP3. However, it is not clear wheth...
متن کاملThe Dynamics of PKC-Induced Phosphorylation Triggered by Ca2+ Oscillations in Mouse Eggs
Fertilization of mammalian eggs is characterized by a series of Ca(2+) oscillations triggered by a phospholipase C activity. These Ca(2+) increases and the parallel generation of diacylglycerol (DAG) stimulate protein kinase C (PKC). However, the dynamics of PKC activity have not been directly measured in living eggs. Here, we have monitored the dynamics of PKC-induced phosphorylation in mouse ...
متن کاملDivergent effect of mammalian PLCζ in generating Ca2+ oscillations in somatic cells compared with eggs
Sperm PLCζ (phospholipase Cζ) is a distinct phosphoinositide-specific PLC isoform that is proposed to be the physiological trigger of egg activation and embryo development at mammalian fertilization. Recombinant PLCζ has the ability to trigger Ca²⁺ oscillations when expressed in eggs, but it is not known how PLCζ activity is regulated in sperm or eggs. In the present study, we have transfected ...
متن کاملEndogenous inhibitors of InsP3-induced Ca2+ release in neuroblastoma cells.
Cerebellar Purkinje neurons and neuroblastoma N1E-115 cells require 10-50 times more InsP3 to induce Ca2+ release than do a variety of non-neuronal cells (including astrocytes, hepatocytes, endothelial cells, or smooth muscle cells). Given the importance of InsP3-induced Ca2+ release for the development of synaptic plasticity in Purkinje neurons, a low InsP3 sensitivity may facilitate the integ...
