چکیده
Darby, Peter J., C. Y. Kwan, and Edwin E. Daniel. Caveolae from canine airway smooth muscle contain the necessary components for a role in Ca handling. Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 279: L1226–L1235, 2000.—To explain that bronchial smooth muscle undergoes sustained agonist-induced contractions in a Ca-free medium, we hypothesized that caveolae in the plasma membrane (PM) contain protected Ca. We isolated caveolae from canine tracheal smooth muscle by detergent treatment of PM-derived microsomes. Detergent-resistant membranes were enriched in caveolin-1, a specific marker for caveolae as well as for L-type Ca channels and Ca binding proteins (calsequestrin and calreticulin) as determined by Western blotting. Also, the PM Ca pump was present but not connexin 43 (a noncaveolae PM protein), the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca pump, or the type 1 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor, supporting the idea that SR-derived membranes were not present. Antibodies to caveolin coimmunoprecipitated caveolin with calsequestrin or calreticulin. Thus some of the cellular calsequestrin and calreticulin associated with caveolin on the cytoplasmic face of each caveola. Immunohistochemistry of tracheal smooth muscle crysosections confirmed the localization of caveolin and the PM Ca pump to the cell periphery, whereas the SR Ca pump was located deeper in the cell. The presence of L-type Ca channels, the PM Ca pump, and the Ca bindng proteins calsequestrin and calreticulin in caveolin-enriched membranes supports caveola involvement in airway smooth muscle Ca handling.

Contractile responses of airway smooth muscle (ASM) determine airway resistance in health and disease. Caveolae microdomains in the plasma membrane are marked by caveolin proteins and are abundant in contractile smooth muscle in association with nanospaces involved in Ca(2+) homeostasis.

Diseases such as asthma are characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness. Enhanced airway smooth muscle (ASM) intracellular Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)) response to agonist stimulation leading to increased airway constriction has been suggested to contribute to airway hyperresponsiveness. Caveolae are flask-shaped plasma membrane invaginations that express the scaffolding protein caveolin and contain mu...

Caveolae, specialized membrane nanodomains, have a key role in signaling processes, including calcium handling in smooth muscle cells (SMC). We explored the three-dimensional (3D) architecture of peripheral cytoplasmic space at the nanoscale level and the close spatial relationships between caveolae, sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), and mitochondria, as ultrastructural basis for excitation-contract...

In mouse intestine, caveolae and caveolin-1 (Cav-1) are present in smooth muscle (responsible for executing contractions) and in interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC; responsible for pacing contractions). We found that a number of calcium handling/dependent molecules are associated with caveolae, including L-type Ca(2+) channels, Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger type 1 (NCX1), plasma membrane Ca(2+) pumps an...
