Excitation-contraction coupling (ECC) relies on temporally synchronized sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release via ryanodine receptors (RyRs) at dyadic membrane compartments. Neurohormones, such as endothelin-1 (ET-1), that act via Gαq-coupled G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) modulate Ca2+ dynamics during ECC and induce SR Ca2+ release events involving Ca2+ release via inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) receptors (InsP3Rs). How the relatively modest Ca2+ release via InsP3Rs elicits this action is not resolved. Here we investigated whether the actions of InsP3Rs on Ca2+ handling during ECC were mediated by a direct influence on dyadic Ca2+ levels and whether this mechanism contributes to the effects of ET-1. Using a dyad-targeted genetically encoded Ca2+ reporter, we found that InsP3R activation augmented dyadic Ca2+ fluxes during Ca2+ transients and increased Ca2+ sparks. RyRs were required for these effects. These data provide the first direct demonstration of GPCR/InsP3 effects on dyadic Ca2+ and support the notion that Ca2+ release via InsP3Rs influences Ca2+ transients during ECC by facilitating the activation and recruitment of proximal RyRs. We propose that this mechanism contributes to neurohormonal modulation of cardiac function.

Effects of the xanthine drug caffeine on inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate (InsP3)-gated calcium (Ca) channels from canine cerebellum were studied using single channels incorporated into planar lipid bilayers. Caffeine, used widely as an agonist of ryanodine receptors, inhibited the activity of InsP3-gated Ca channels in a noncooperative fashion with half-inhibition at 1.64 mM caffeine. The frequency of channel openings was decreased more than threefold after addition of 5 mM caffeine; there was only a small effect on mean open time of the channels, and the single channel conductance was unchanged. Increased InsP3 concentration overcame the inhibitory action of caffeine, but caffeine did not reduce specific [3H]InsP3 binding to the receptor. The inhibitory action of caffeine on InsP3 receptors suggests that the action of caffeine on the intracellular Ca pool must be interpreted with caution when both ryanodine receptors and InsP3 receptors are present in the cell.

In the present study, effects of the nitric oxide donor, S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP), on sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release were examined in freshly dissociated porcine tracheal smooth muscle (TSM) cells. Fura 2-loaded TSM cells were imaged using video fluorescence microscopy. SR Ca2+ release was induced by acetylcholine (ACh), which acts principally through inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptors, and by caffeine, which acts principally through ryanodine receptors (RyR). SNAP inhibited ACh-induced SR Ca2+ release at both 0 and 2.5 mM extracellular Ca2+. Degraded SNAP had no effect on ACh-induced SR Ca2+ release. SNAP also inhibited caffeine-induced SR Ca2+ release. ACh-induced Ca2+ influx was not affected by SNAP when SR reloading was blocked by thapsigargin. SNAP also did not affect SR Ca2+ reuptake. The membrane-permeant analogue of guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP), 8-bromo-cGMP, mimicked the effects of SNAP. These results suggest that, in porcine TSM cells, SNAP reduces the intracellular Ca2+ response to ACh and caffeine by inhibiting SR Ca2+ release through both IP3 and RyR, but not by inhibiting influx or repletion of the SR Ca2+ stores. These effects are likely mediated via cGMP-dependent mechanisms.

Every eukaryotic cell contains systems linking the extracellular space and internal membrane compartments. These systems allow cells to communicate and, ultimately they allow the nervous system to control most of the cytoplasmic activity. In skeletal muscle, this system is called "excitation–contraction coupling." While much is known of the early and late steps in coupling, the critical link between the cell (i.e., here the T system) membrane and sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane is not known. Electrical coupling cannot easily account for experimental results; here we show that the Ca2+ influx is not causally related to the excitation–contraction coupling. The most likely mechanism seems to be a variant of the "remote control model" in which a voltage change and accompanying charge movement in the T membrane activates an enzyme tethered to the cytoplasmic leaflet of the T membrane but spanning part of the T – sarcoplasmic reticulum gap.

Capacitative Ca2+ entry (CCE) is a universal mechanism for refilling intracellular Ca2+ stores in electrically non-excitable cells. The situation in excitable cells is less clear, however, since they may rely on other entry mechanisms for Ca2+-store refilling. In the present study we investigated CCE in intact PC12 cells, using acetylcholine to bring about activation of InsP3 receptors (InsP3Rs), caffeine to activate ryanodine receptors (RyRs) and thapsigargin to inhibit sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase pumps. We found that depletion of the InsP3-, caffeine- or thapsigargin-sensitive stores promoted Ca2+ entry, suggesting that stimulation of either InsP3Rs or RyRs can activate CCE. The CCE pathways activated by InsP3Rs, RyRs and thapsigargin appeared to be independent at least in part, since their effects were found to be additive. However, CCE triggered by caffeine, acetylcholine or thapsigargin progressively diminished with time. The decay of CCE caused by one agent also inhibited subsequent responses to the others, suggesting that some component of the CCE pathway is common to all intracellular Ca2+ stores. The magnitude of CCE stimulated by InsP3Rs or RyRs was related to the size of the stores; the InsP3-sensitive store was smaller than the RyR-sensitive store and triggered a smaller entry component. However, both stores filled with a similar half time (about 1 min), and both could be filled more rapidly by depolarization-induced Ca2+ entry through voltage-operated channels. A significant basal Ca2+ influx was apparent in PC12 cells. The basal entry component may be under the control of the InsP3-sensitive Ca2+ store, since short incubations in Ca2+-free medium depleted this store.

Intracellular Ca2+ is actively sequestered into the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), whereas the release of Ca2+ from the SR can be triggered by activation of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and ryanodine receptors. Uptake and release of Ca2+ across the SR membrane are electrogenic processes; accumulation of positive or negative charge across the SR membrane could electrostatically hinder the movement of Ca2+ into or out of the SR, respectively. We hypothesized that the movement of intracellular Cl− (Cl[Formula: see text]) across the SR membrane neutralizes the accumulation of charge that accompanies uptake and release of Ca2+. Thus inhibition of SR Cl− fluxes will reduce Ca2+ sequestration and agonist-induced release. The Cl− channel blocker 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid (NPPB; 10−4 M), previously shown to inhibit SR Cl− channels, significantly reduced the magnitude of successive acetylcholine-induced contractions of airway smooth muscle (ASM), suggesting a “run down” of sequestered Ca2+ within the SR. Niflumic acid (10−4 M), a structurally different Cl− channel blocker, had no such effect. Furthermore, NPPB significantly reduced caffeine-induced contraction and increases in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i). Depletion of Cl[Formula: see text], accomplished by bathing ASM strips in Cl−-free buffer, significantly reduced the magnitude of successive acetylcholine-induced contractions. In addition, Cl− depletion significantly reduced caffeine-induced increases in [Ca2+]i. Together these data suggest a novel role for Cl[Formula: see text] fluxes in Ca2+ handling in smooth muscle. Because the release of sequestered Ca2+ is the predominate source of Ca2+ for contraction of ASM, targeting Cl[Formula: see text] fluxes may prove useful in the control of ASM hyperresponsiveness associated with asthma.

Ca2+ uptake by mitochondria is a potentially important buffering system able to control cytosolic [Ca2+]. In chromaffin cells, we have shown previously that stimulation of either Ca2+ entry or Ca2+ release via ryanodine receptors triggers large increases in mitochondrial [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]M) approaching the millimolar range, whose blockade dramatically enhances catecholamine secretion [Montero, Alonso, Carnicero, Cuchillo-Ibañez, Albillos, Garcia, Carcia-Sancho and Alvarez (2000) Nat. Cell Biol. 2, 57–61]. In the present study, we have studied the effect of stimulation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) receptors using histamine. We find that histamine produces a heterogeneous increase in [Ca2+]M, reaching peak levels at approx. 1μM in 70% of the mitochondrial space to several hundred micromolar in 2–3% of mitochondria. Intermediate levels were found in the rest of the mitochondrial space. Single-cell imaging experiments with aequorin showed that the heterogeneity had both an intercellular and a subcellular origin. Those mitochondria responding to histamine with increases in [Ca2+]M much greater than 1μM (30%) were the same as those that also responded with large increases in [Ca2+]M following stimulation with either high-K+ medium or caffeine. Blocking mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake with protonophores or mitochondrial inhibitors also enhanced catecholamine secretion induced by histamine. These results suggest that some InsP3 receptors tightly co-localize with ryanodine receptors and voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels in defined subplasmalemmal functional units designed to control secretion induced by different stimuli.

The aim of the present study was to explore interactions between surface-membrane DHPR (dihydropyridine receptor) Ca2+ channels and RyR (ryanodine receptor) Ca2+ channels in skeletal-muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. The C region (725Phe-Pro742) of the linker between the 2nd and 3rd repeats (II–III loop) of the α1 subunit of skeletal DHPRs is essential for skeletal excitation–contraction coupling, which requires a physical interaction between the DHPR and RyR and is independent of external Ca2+. Little is known about the regulatory processes that might take place when the two Ca2+ channels interact. Indeed, interactions between C fragments of the DHPR (C peptides) and RyR have different reported effects on Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum and on RyR channels in lipid bilayers. To gain insight into functional interactions between the proteins and to explore different reported effects, we examined the actions of C peptides on RyR1 channels in lipid bilayers with three key RyR regulators, Ca2+, Mg2+ and ATP. We identified four discrete actions: two novel, low-affinity (>10 μM), rapidly reversible effects (fast inhibition and decreased sensitivity to Mg2+ inhibition) and two slowly reversible effects (high-affinity activation and a slow-onset, low-affinity inhibition). Fast inhibition and high-affinity activation were decreased by ATP. Therefore peptide activation in the presence of ATP and Mg2+, used with Ca2+ release assays, depends on a mechanism different from that seen when Ca2+ is the sole agonist. The relief of Mg2+ inhibition was particularly important since RyR activation during excitation–contraction coupling depends on a similar decrease in Mg2+ inhibition.

Ca2+ influx triggered by depletion of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ stores [mediated via store-operated Ca2+ channels (SOCC)] was characterized in enzymatically dissociated porcine airway smooth muscle (ASM) cells. When SR Ca2+ was depleted by either 5 μM cyclopiazonic acid or 5 mM caffeine in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, subsequent introduction of extracellular Ca2+ further elevated [Ca2+]i. SOCC was insensitive to 1 μM nifedipine- or KCl-induced changes in membrane potential. However, preexposure of cells to 100 nM–1 mM La3+ or Ni2+ inhibited SOCC. Exposure to ACh increased Ca2+ influx both in the presence and absence of a depleted SR. Inhibition of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP)-induced SR Ca2+ release by 20 μM xestospongin D inhibited SOCC, whereas ACh-induced IP3 production by 5 μM U-73122 had no effect. Inhibition of Ca2+ release through ryanodine receptors (RyR) by 100 μM ryanodine also prevented Ca2+ influx via SOCC. Qualitatively similar characteristics of SOCC-mediated Ca2+ influx were observed with cyclopiazonic acid- vs. caffeine-induced SR Ca2+ depletion. These data demonstrate that a Ni2+/La3+-sensitive Ca2+ influx via SOCC in porcine ASM cells involves SR Ca2+ release through both IP3 and RyR channels. Additional regulation of Ca2+ influx by agonist may be related to a receptor-operated, noncapacitative mechanism.
