Calcium transport from the eggshell to the developing chick embryo is carried out by the ectoderm cells of the chick chorioallantoic membrane. Primary cells isolated from chick chorioallantoic membrane ectoderm were used to analyze the subcellular distribution of 45Ca2+ accumulated from the extracellular medium. We present evidence suggesting that calcium may be sequestered into endosome-like vesicles during the initial phase of uptake. A combination of techniques were utilized to monitor calcium fluxes and calcium compartmentalization in the cultured chorioallantoic membrane cells: (1) fura-2 fluorescence was used to indicate cytosolic free calcium concentrations, (2) 45Ca2+ tracer was used to follow calcium accumulation in all cellular compartments, and (3) digitonin was used to differentially permeabilize subcellular membranes in order to localize 45Ca2+ by following tracer release profiles. Differences between cytosolic calcium flux and whole cell calcium accumulation suggested that the pathway of calcium uptake from the medium involves sequestration into an internal compartment separate from the cytosol. Kinetic analysis of the digitonin-mediated release of specific subcellular markers (lactate dehydrogenase, NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase, [3H]inulin, and [3H]-2-deoxyglucose) and preloaded 45Ca2+ indicated that calcium was localized in a compartment similar to endosomal vesicles. Our results are consistent with a transcytotic mechanism for chorioallantoic membrane calcium transport.

Endosomes, lysosomes and lysosome-related organelles are emerging as important Ca2+ storage cellular compartments with a central role in intracellular Ca2+ signalling. Endocytosis at the plasma membrane forms endosomal vesicles which mature to late endosomes and culminate in lysosomal biogenesis. During this process, acquisition of different ion channels and transporters progressively changes the endolysosomal luminal ionic environment (e.g. pH and Ca2+) to regulate enzyme activities, membrane fusion/fission and organellar ion fluxes, and defects in these can result in disease. In the present review we focus on the physiology of the inter-related transport mechanisms of Ca2+ and H+ across endolysosomal membranes. In particular, we discuss the role of the Ca2+-mobilizing messenger NAADP (nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate) as a major regulator of Ca2+ release from endolysosomes, and the recent discovery of an endolysosomal channel family, the TPCs (two-pore channels), as its principal intracellular targets. Recent molecular studies of endolysosomal Ca2+ physiology and its regulation by NAADP-gated TPCs are providing exciting new insights into the mechanisms of Ca2+-signal initiation that control a wide range of cellular processes and play a role in disease. These developments underscore a new central role for the endolysosomal system in cellular Ca2+ regulation and signalling.

Dependent Mechanism

During renal organic cation secretion by some species, intracellular concentrations greatly exceed the 10- to 15-fold ratio predicted by the potential-driven mechanism thought to mediate their basolateral uptake. Free cytoplasmic organic cation concentrations within the tubular cells might be decreased through sequestration within intracellular organelles. The data reported here show that endosomal vesicles isolated from rat renal cortex take up tetraethylammonium (TEA) by an ATP-dependent mechanism. Addition of 0.2-5 mM ATP to the medium stimulated uptake 5- to 10-fold at 5 min and 20-fold at 60 min. More than 80% of the ATP-dependent uptake was associated with an osmotically active space. The nonhydrolyzable ATP analogue, adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate), did not stimulate TEA uptake. Mg2+ and Cl- were required for stimulation. Uptake was inhibited by several organic cations, including TEA itself. Uptake was also inhibited by inhibitors of intravesicular acidification, e.g., monensin and N-ethylmaleimide. Furthermore, the ATP requirement could be bypassed by establishing a pH gradient (inside acidic). These data show that endosomal TEA accumulation is mediated by proton/TEA exchange and is driven by the pH gradient maintained by H(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase. This potent sequestration mechanism may play an important role in organic cation secretion.

Apical exocytosis and increased permeability are induced by antidiuretic hormone (ADH). After this, endocytosis is also induced by ADH and is associated with the decline in ADH-induced water permeability at the apical surface of the toad urinary bladder (9, 19, 20). During this process, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), a fluid phase marker, is taken up from the mucosal solution into endocytic tubules and multivesicular bodies. We now report that we can introduce from the apical (mucosal) side, a viral transmembrane protein (the G-protein of VSV) and that this protein can be retrieved as an integral membrane protein in endocytic membranes. This was demonstrated by immunoisolation of endosomal vesicles loaded with HRP using a monoclonal antibody against the cytoplasmic domain of the G-protein.

Adp Ribosylation Factor

We have shown previously that the ADP- ribosylation factor (ARF)-6 GTPase localizes to the plasma membrane and intracellular endosomal compartments. Expression of ARF6 mutants perturbs endosomal trafficking and the morphology of the peripheral membrane system. However, another study on the distribution of ARF6 in subcellular fractions of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells suggested that ARF6 did not localize to endosomes labeled after 10 min of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) uptake, but instead was uniquely localized to the plasma membrane, and that its reported endosomal localization may have been a result of overexpression. Here we demonstrate that at the lowest detectable levels of protein expression by cryoimmunogold electron microscopy, ARF6 localized predominantly to an intracellular compartment at the pericentriolar region of the cell. The ARF6-labeled vesicles were partially accessible to HRP only on prolonged exposure to the endocytic tracer but did not localize to early endocytic structures that labeled with HRP shortly after uptake. Furthermore, we have shown that the ARF6-containing intracellular compartment partially colocalized with transferrin receptors and cellubrevin and morphologically resembled the recycling endocytic compartment previously described in CHO cells. HRP labeling in cells expressing ARF6(Q67L), a GTP-bound mutant of ARF6, was restricted to small peripheral vesicles, whereas the mutant protein was enriched on plasma membrane invaginations. On the other hand, expression of ARF6(T27N), a mutant of ARF6 defective in GDP binding, resulted in an accumulation of perinuclear ARF6-positive vesicles that partially colocalized with HRP on prolonged exposure to the tracer. Taken together, our findings suggest that ARF activation is required for the targeted delivery of ARF6-positive, recycling endosomal vesicles to the plasma membrane.

ESCRT-III (endosomal sorting complex required for transport III) is required for the formation and abscission of intraluminal endosomal vesicles, which gives rise to multivesicular bodies, budding of some enveloped viruses and cytokinesis. ESCRT-III is composed of 11 members in humans, which, except for one, correspond to the six ESCRT-III-like proteins in yeast. At least CHMP (charged multivesicular body protein) 2A and CHMP3 assemble into helical tubular structures that provide a platform for membrane interaction and VPS (vacuolar protein sorting) 4-catalysed effects leading to disassembly of ESCRT-III CHMP2A–CHMP3 polymers in vitro. Progress towards the understanding of the structures and function of ESCRT-III, its activation, its regulation by accessory factors and its role in abscission of membrane enveloped structures in concert with VPS4 are discussed.

AbstractThe Bridging Integrator 1 (BIN1) gene is a major susceptibility gene for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Deciphering its pathophysiological role is challenging due to its numerous isoforms. Here we observed in Drosophila that human BIN1 isoform1 (BIN1iso1) overexpression, contrary to human BIN1 isoform8 (BIN1iso8) and human BIN1 isoform9 (BIN1iso9), induced an accumulation of endosomal vesicles and neurodegeneration. Systematic search for endosome regulators able to prevent BIN1iso1-induced neurodegeneration indicated that a defect at the early endosome level is responsible for the neurodegeneration. In human induced neurons (hiNs) and cerebral organoids, BIN1 knock-out resulted in the narrowing of early endosomes. This phenotype was rescued by BIN1iso1 but not BIN1iso9 expression. Finally, BIN1iso1 overexpression also led to an increase in the size of early endosomes and neurodegeneration in hiNs. Altogether, our data demonstrate that the AD susceptibility gene BIN1, and especially BIN1iso1, contributes to early-endosome size deregulation, which is an early pathophysiological hallmark of AD pathology.

ABSTRACTThe quasi-envelopment of hepatitis A virus (HAV) capsids in exosome-like virions (eHAV) is an important but incompletely understood aspect of the hepatovirus life cycle. This process is driven by recruitment of newly assembled capsids to endosomal vesicles into which they bud to form multivesicular bodies with intraluminal vesicles that are later released at the plasma membrane as eHAV. The endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) are key to this process, as is the ESCRT-III-associated protein, ALIX, which also contributes to membrane budding of conventional enveloped viruses. YPX1or3L late domains in the structural proteins of these viruses mediate interactions with ALIX, and two such domains exist in the HAV VP2 capsid protein. Mutational studies of these domains are confounded by the fact that the Tyr residues (important for interactions of YPX1or3L peptides with ALIX) are required for efficient capsid assembly. However, single Leu-to-Ala substitutions within either VP2 YPX3L motif (L1-A and L2-A mutants) were well tolerated, albeit associated with significantly reduced eHAV release. In contrast, simultaneous substitutions in both motifs (L1,2-A) eliminated virus release but did not inhibit assembly of infectious intracellular particles. Immunoprecipitation experiments suggested that the loss of eHAV release was associated with a loss of ALIX recruitment. Collectively, these data indicate that HAV YPX3L motifs function as redundant late domains during quasi-envelopment and viral release. Since these motifs present little solvent-accessible area in the crystal structure of the naked extracellular capsid, the capsid structure may be substantially different during quasi-envelopment.IMPORTANCENonlytic release of hepatitis A virus (HAV) as exosome-like quasi-enveloped virions is a unique but incompletely understood aspect of the hepatovirus life cycle. Several lines of evidence indicate that the host protein ALIX is essential for this process. Tandem YPX3L “late domains” in the VP2 capsid protein could be sites of interaction with ALIX, but they are not accessible on the surface of an X-ray model of the extracellular capsid, raising doubts about this putative late domain function. Here, we describe YPX3L domain mutants that assemble capsids normally but fail to bind ALIX and be secreted as quasi-enveloped eHAV. Our data support late domain function for the VP2 YPX3L motifs and raise questions about the structure of the HAV capsid prior to and following quasi-envelopment.
