Termination of cytosolic Ca2+ signals: Ca2+ reuptake into intracellular stores is regulated by the free Ca2+ concentration in the store lumen.

چکیده
The mechanism by which agonist-evoked cytosolic Ca2+ signals are terminated has been investigated. We measured the Ca2+ concentration inside the endoplasmic reticulum store of pancreatic acinar cells and monitored the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration by whole-cell patch-clamp recording of the Ca2+-sensitive currents. When the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration was clamped at the resting level by a high concentration of a selective Ca2+ buffer, acetylcholine evoked the usual depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores, but without increasing the Ca2+-sensitive currents. Removal of acetylcholine allowed thapsigargin-sensitive Ca2+ reuptake into the stores, and this process stopped when the stores had been loaded to the pre-stimulation level. The apparent rate of Ca2+ reuptake decreased steeply with an increase in the Ca2+ concentration in the store lumen and it is this negative feedback on the Ca2+ pump that controls the Ca2+ store content. In the absence of a cytoplasmic Ca2+ clamp, acetylcholine removal resulted in a rapid return of the elevated cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration to the pre-stimulation resting level, which was attained long before the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ store had been completely refilled. We conclude that control of Ca2+ reuptake by the Ca2+ concentration inside the intracellular store allows precise Ca2+ signal termination without interfering with store refilling.

The characteristics underlying cytosolic free calcium oscillation were evaluated by superfused dual wave-length microspectrofluorometry of fura-2-loaded single acinar cells from rat pancreas. Application of a physiological concentration of cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK) (20 pM) induced a small basal increase in cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) averaging 34 nM above the prestimu...
متن کاملCa2+ Flow via Tunnels in Polarized Cells: Recharging of Apical Ca2+ Stores by Focal Ca2+ Entry through Basal Membrane Patch
Intracellular Ca2+ store depletion induces Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane, allowing the store to recharge. In our experiments, Ca2+ stores in pancreatic acinar cells were depleted by acetylcholine (ACh) stimulation in Ca2+-free solution. Thereafter, Ca2+ entry was only allowed through a CaCl2-containing pipette attached to the basal membrane. Recharging intracellular Ca2+ stores via a pa...
متن کاملExocytosis, dependent on Ca2+ release from Ca2+ stores, is regulated by Ca2+ microdomains.
The relationship between the cellular Ca2+ signal and secretory vesicle fusion (exocytosis) is a key determinant of the regulation of the kinetics and magnitude of the secretory response. Here, we have investigated secretion in cells where the exocytic response is controlled by Ca2+ release from intracellular Ca2+ stores. Using live-cell two-photon microscopy that simultaneously records Ca2+sig...

Intracellular calcium (Ca2+) oscillation is an initial event in digestive enzyme secretion of pancreatic acinar cells. Reactive oxygen species are known to be associated with a variety of oxidative stress-induced cellular disorders including pancreatitis. In this study, we investigated the effect of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on intracellular Ca2+ accumulation in mouse pancreatic acinar cells. Pe...
متن کاملControl of Ca2+ entry into HL60 and U937 human leukaemia cells by the filling state of the intracellular Ca2+ stores.
Differentiation of HL60 cells by treatment with dimethyl sulphoxide induces the expression of membrane receptors for N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) and for platelet-activating factor (PAF). In these cells both agonists produced an increase in the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) by release of Ca2+ from the intracellular stores, followed shortly by an acceleration of the ent...
