Ca2 Channels

Store-operate Ca2+ channels gate Ca2+ entry into the cytoplasm in response to the depletion of Ca2+ from endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ stores. The major molecular components of store-operated Ca2+ entry are STIM (stromal-interacting molecule) 1 (and in some instances STIM2) that serves as the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ sensor, and Orai (Orai1, Orai2 and Orai3) which function as pore-forming subunits of the store-operated channel. It has been known for some time that store-operated Ca2+ entry is shut down during cell division. Recent work has revealed complex mechanisms regulating the functions and locations of both STIM1 and Orai1 in dividing cells.

Store Operated Calcium Entry

Calcium ions regulate a wide array of physiological functions including cell differentiation, proliferation, muscle contraction, neurotransmission, and fertilization. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the major intracellular Ca2+ store and cellular events that induce ER store depletion (e.g., activation of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) receptors) trigger a refilling process known as store-operated calcium entry (SOCE). It requires the intricate interaction between the Ca2+ sensing stromal interaction molecules (STIM) located in the ER membrane and the channel forming Orai proteins in the plasma membrane (PM). The resulting active STIM/Orai complexes form highly selective Ca2+ channels that facilitate a measurable Ca2+ influx into the cytosol followed by successive refilling of the ER by the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA). STIM and Orai have attracted significant therapeutic interest, as enhanced SOCE has been associated with several cancers, and mutations in STIM and Orai have been linked to immunodeficiency, autoimmune, and muscular diseases. 2-Aminoethyl diphenylborinate (2-APB) is a known modulator and depending on its concentration can inhibit or enhance SOCE. We have synthesized several novel derivatives of 2-APB, introducing halogen and other small substituents systematically on each position of one of the phenyl rings. Using a fluorometric imaging plate reader (FLIPR) Tetra-based calcium imaging assay we have studied how these structural changes of 2-APB affect the SOCE modulation activity at different compound concentrations in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. We have discovered 2-APB derivatives that block SOCE at low concentrations, at which 2-APB usually enhances SOCE.

Store Operated Calcium Entry

Dynamic regulation of the mitochondrial network by mitofusins (MFNs) modulates energy production, cell survival, and many intracellular signaling events, including calcium handling. However, the relative importance of specific mitochondrial functions and their dependence on MFNs vary greatly among cell types. Osteoclasts have many mitochondria, and increased mitochondrial biogenesis and oxidative phosphorylation enhance bone resorption, but little is known about the mitochondrial network or MFNs in osteoclasts. Because expression of each MFN isoform increases with osteoclastogenesis, we conditionally deleted MFN1 and MFN2 (double conditional KO (dcKO)) in murine osteoclast precursors, finding that this increased bone mass in young female mice and abolished osteoclast precursor differentiation into mature osteoclasts in vitro. Defective osteoclastogenesis was reversed by overexpression of MFN2 but not MFN1; therefore, we generated mice lacking only MFN2 in osteoclasts. MFN2-deficient female mice had increased bone mass at 1 year and resistance to Receptor Activator of NF-κB Ligand (RANKL)-induced osteolysis at 8 weeks. To explore whether MFN-mediated tethering or mitophagy is important for osteoclastogenesis, we overexpressed MFN2 variants defective in either function in dcKO precursors and found that, although mitophagy was dispensable for differentiation, tethering was required. Because the master osteoclastogenic transcriptional regulator nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 (NFATc1) is calcium-regulated, we assessed calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum and store-operated calcium entry and found that the latter was blunted in dcKO cells. Restored osteoclast differentiation by expression of intact MFN2 or the mitophagy-defective variant was associated with normalization of store-operated calcium entry and NFATc1 levels, indicating that MFN2 controls mitochondrion–endoplasmic reticulum tethering in osteoclasts.

Dividing Cells

Studies on cell division traditionally focus on the mechanisms of chromosome segregation and cytokinesis, yet we know comparatively little about how organelles segregate. Analysis of organelle partitioning in asymmetrically dividing cells has provided insights into the mechanisms through which cells control organelle distribution. Interestingly, these studies have revealed that segregation mechanisms frequently link organelle distribution to organelle growth and formation. Furthermore, in many cases, cells use organelles, such as the endoplasmic reticulum and P granules, as vectors for the segregation of information. Together, these emerging data suggest that the coordination between organelle growth, division, and segregation plays an important role in the control of cell fate inheritance, cellular aging, and rejuvenation, i.e., the resetting of age in immortal lineages.
