Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the major intracellular calcium (Ca2+) storage compartment in eukaryotic cells. In most instances, the mobilization of Ca2+ from this store is followed by a delayed and sustained uptake of Ca2+ through Ca2+-permeable channels of the cell surface named store-operated Ca2+ channels (SOCCs). This gives rise to a store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) that has been thoroughly investigated in electrically non-excitable cells where it is the principal regulated Ca2+ entry pathway. The existence of this Ca2+ route in neurons has long been a matter of debate. However, a growing body of experimental evidence indicates that the recruitment of Ca2+ from neuronal ER Ca2+ stores generates a SOCE. The present review summarizes the main studies supporting the presence of a depletion-dependent Ca2+ entry in neurons. It also addresses the question of the molecular composition of neuronal SOCCs, their expression, pharmacological properties, as well as their physiological relevance.

Antagonism of the Muscarinic Acetylcholine Type 1 Receptor Enhances Mitochondrial Membrane Potential and Expression of Respiratory Chain Components via AMPK in Human Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y Cells and Primary Neurons. Mol Neurobiol 2022; 59:6754-6770.

Abstract
Impairments in mitochondrial physiology play a role in the progression of multiple neurodegenerative conditions, including peripheral neuropathy in diabetes. Blockade of muscarinic acetylcholine type 1 receptor (M1R) with specific/selective antagonists prevented mitochondrial dysfunction and reversed nerve degeneration in in vitro and in vivo models of peripheral neuropathy. Specifically, in type 1 and type 2 models of diabetes, inhibition of M1R using pirenzepine or muscarinic toxin 7 (MT7) induced AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and prevented sensory abnormalities and distal nerve fiber loss. The human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell line has been extensively used as an in vitro model system to study mechanisms of neurodegeneration in DRG neurons and other neuronal sub-types. Here, we tested the hypothesis that pirenzepine or MT7 enhance AMPK activity and via this pathway augment mitochondrial function in SH-SY5Y cells. M1R expression was confirmed by utilizing a fluorescent dye, ATTO590-labeled MT7, that exhibits great specificity for this receptor. M1R antagonist treatment in SH-SY5Y culture increased AMPK phosphorylation and mitochondrial protein expression (OXPHOS). Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was augmented in pirenzepine and MT7 treated cultured SH-SY5Y cells and DRG neurons. Compound C or AMPK-specific siRNA suppressed pirenzepine or MT7-induced elevation of OXPHOS expression and MMP. Moreover, muscarinic antagonists induced hyperpolarization by activating the M-current and, thus, suppressed neuronal excitability. These results reveal that negative regulation of this M1R-dependent pathway could represent a potential therapeutic target to elevate AMPK activity, enhance mitochondrial function, suppress neuropathic pain, and enhance nerve repair in peripheral neuropathy.

Abstract
The effects of the neurotoxic compounds acrylamide, triethyltin chloride (TET), methyl mercury (II) chloride (MeHg) and lindane on selected neurospecific and general cell functions in differentiated human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were investigated in an attempt to determine critical cellular neurotoxic concentrations. The cultures were exposed to the neurotoxicants for three days, and then the effects on cell growth, neuronal signal transaction and the induction of axonopathy were measured. For comparison, general cytotoxicity was also determined in human epithelial (HeLa) cells. The cytotoxic activities (IC20 values) in the SH-SY5Y cells were 0.18 ± 0.03μM for TET, 0.20 ± 0.03μM for MeHg, 32 ± 10μM for lindane and 810 ± 170μM for acrylamide. Inhibition of cell growth was similar in HeLa cells. Significantly lower concentrations of MeHg, acrylamide and TET than the IC20 values were sufficient to induce axonopathy. In addition, MeHg and acrylamide increased the basal intracellular free calcium concentration, [Ca2+]i,as well as the carbachol-induced Ca2+fluxes and the depolarisation-stimulated increase of [Ca2+]icompared to control cells. The elevated [Ca2+]imay be a primary cause of the acrylamide-induced and MeHg-induced neuropathy. Treatment with lindane (1μM) slightly decreased the depolarisation-evoked Ca2+influx in the neuroblastoma cells. A parallel to the documented neurotoxic mechanism of lindane (i.e. inhibition of the γ-aminobutyric acid-activated Cl-channels) is possible.

Abstract
Excessive cholinergic or glutaminergic brain stimulation may result in seizures, excitotoxicity and neuronal damage. Cholinergic neuronal excitation is mediated via muscarinic receptors which couple with GTP-binding proteins (G–proteins), activate phospholipase C, and produce the inositol lipid second messengers, inositol-1,4,5,-trisphosphate (InsP3) and diacyl-glycerol (DG). InsP3 facilitates intracellular Ca2+ metabolism and DG activates protein kinase C (PKC). Glutaminergic neuronal stimulation is mediated through ionotropic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, which increase Ca2+ influx, and kainate α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxalolproprionic acid receptors, which mainly regulate Na+ fluxes. Glutaminergic metabotropic receptors are also coupled to a G-protein, and their stimulation activates neurons through increased production of InsP3 and DG. A salient feature in glutamate-induced excitotoxicity is the induction of an oxidative burst, subsequent oxidative stress, and damage to the neurons. The glutamate-induced oxidative burst can be amplified by lead, a direct activator of PKC, and the oxidative burst can be blocked by a PKC inhibitor, suggesting an important role for PKC. Carbachol also induces an oxidative burst in neuronal cells and this is associated with elevations of free intracellular calcium. The ability of an NMDA receptor antagonist, AP-5, to block carbachol-induced elevations of free intracellular calcium, suggests that activation of muscarinic receptors is associated with a simultaneous glutamate receptor activation. Thus, cross-talk between cholinergic muscarinic and glutaminergic receptors may be an important contributing factor in cholinergic and glutaminergic excitotoxicity.

Abstract
Glutamate and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ ) have been implicated in neuronal development and several types of cancer. The kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism includes quinolinic acid (QA) which is both a selective agonist at N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors and also a precursor for the formation of NAD+ . The effect of QA on cell survival and differentiation has therefore been examined on SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells. Retinoic acid (RA, 10 μm) induced differentiation of SH-SY5Y cells into a neuronal phenotype showing neurite growth. QA (50-150 nm) also caused a concentration-dependent increase in the neurite/soma ratio, indicating differentiation. Both RA and QA increased expression of the neuronal marker β3-tubulin in whole-cell homogenates and in the neuritic fraction assessed using a neurite outgrowth assay. Expression of the neuronal proliferation marker doublecortin revealed that, unlike RA, QA did not decrease the number of mitotic cells. QA-induced neuritogenesis coincided with an increase in the generation of reactive oxygen species. Neuritogenesis was prevented by diphenylene-iodonium (an inhibitor of NADPH oxidase) and superoxide dismutase, supporting the involvement of reactive oxygen species. NMDA itself did not promote neuritogenesis and the NMDA antagonist dizocilpine (MK-801) did not prevent quinolinate-induced neuritogenesis, indicating that the effects of QA were independent of NMDA receptors. Nicotinamide caused a significant increase in the neurite/soma ratio and the expression of β3-tubulin in the neuritic fraction. Taken together, these results suggest that QA induces neuritogenesis by promoting oxidizing conditions and affecting the availability of NAD+ , independently of NMDA receptors.

Involvement of store-operated Ca(2+) entry in activation of AMP-activated protein kinase and stimulation of glucose uptake by M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in human neuroblastoma cells. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2014; 1843:3004-17. [PMID: 25242372 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamcr.2014.09.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2014] [Revised: 09/08/2014] [Accepted: 09/10/2014] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
Gq/11-coupled muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) belonging to M1, M3 and M5 subtypes have been shown to activate the metabolic sensor AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) through Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase-β (CaMKKβ)-mediated phosphorylation at Thr172. However, the source of Ca(2+) required for this response has not been yet elucidated. Here, we investigated the involvement of store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) in AMPK activation by pharmacologically defined M3 mAChRs in human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. In Ca(2+)-free medium the cholinergic agonist carbachol (CCh) caused a transient increase of phospho-Thr172 AMPK that rapidly ceased within 2min. Conversely, in the presence of extracellular Ca(2+) CCh-induced AMPK phosphorylation lasted for at least 180min. The SOCE modulator 2-aminoethoxydiphephenyl borate (2-APB), at a concentration (50μM) that suppressed CCh-induced intracellular Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)]i) plateau, inhibited CCh-induced AMPK phosphorylation. CCh triggered the activation of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) sensor stromal interaction molecule (STIM) 1, as indicated by redistribution of STIM1 immunofluorescence into puncta, and promoted the association of STIM1 with the SOCE channel component Orai1. Cell depletion of STIM1 by siRNA treatment reduced both CCh-induced [Ca(2+)]i plateau and AMPK activation. M3 mAChRs increased glucose uptake and this response required extracellular Ca(2+) and was inhibited by 2-APB, STIM1 knockdown, CaMKKβ and AMPK inhibitors, and adenovirus infection with dominant negative AMPK. Thus, the study provides evidence that SOCE is required for sustained activation of AMPK and stimulation of downstream glucose uptake by M3 mAChRs and suggests that SOCE is a critical process connecting M3 mAChRs to the control of neuronal energy metabolism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A major challenge when creating interfaces for the nervous system is to translate between the signal carriers of the nervous system (ions and neurotransmitters) and those of conventional electronics (electrons). SCOPE OF REVIEW Organic conjugated polymers represent a unique class of materials that utilizes both electrons and ions as charge carriers. Based on these materials, we have established a series of novel communication interfaces between electronic components and biological systems. The organic electronic ion pump (OEIP) presented in this review is made of the polymer-polyelectrolyte system poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS). The OEIP translates electronic signals into electrophoretic migration of ions and neurotransmitters. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS We demonstrate how spatio-temporally controlled delivery of ions and neurotransmitters can be used to modulate intracellular Ca(2+) signaling in neuronal cells in the absence of convective disturbances. The electronic control of delivery enables strict control of dynamic parameters, such as amplitude and frequency of Ca(2+) responses, and can be used to generate temporal patterns mimicking naturally occurring Ca(2+) oscillations. To enable further control of the ionic signals we developed the electrophoretic chemical transistor, an analog of the traditional transistor used to amplify and/or switch electronic signals. Finally, we demonstrate the use of the OEIP in a new "machine-to-brain" interface by modulating brainstem responses in vivo. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE This review highlights the potential of communication interfaces based on conjugated polymers in generating complex, high-resolution, signal patterns to control cell physiology. We foresee widespread applications for these devices in biomedical research and in future medical devices within multiple therapeutic areas. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Organic Bioelectronics-Novel Applications in Biomedicine.

Abstract
Previous studies have demonstrated that stimulation of phospholipase C-linked G-protein-coupled receptors, including muscarinic M1 and M3 receptors, increases the release of the soluble form of amyloid precursor protein (sAPPalpha) by alpha-secretase cleavage. In this study, we examined the involvement of capacitative Ca2+ entry (CCE) in the regulation of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR)-dependent sAPPalpha release in neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells expressing abundant M3 mAChRs. The sAPPalpha release stimulated by mAChR activation was abolished by EGTA, an extracellular Ca2+ chelator, which abolished mAChR-mediated Ca2+ influx without affecting Ca2+ mobilization from intracellular stores. However, mAChR-mediated sAPPalpha release was not inhibited by thapsigargin, which increases basal [Ca2+]i by depletion of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. While these results indicate that the mAChR-mediated increase in sAPPalpha release is regulated largely by Ca2+ influx rather than by Ca2+ mobilization from intracellular stores, we further investigated the Ca2+ entry mechanisms regulating this phenomenon. CCE inhibitors such as Gd3+, SKF96365, and 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borane (2-APB), dose dependently reduced both Ca2+ influx and sAPPalpha release stimulated by mAChR activation, whereas inhibition of voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels, Na+/Ca2+ exchangers, or Na+-pumps was without effect. These results indicate that CCE plays an important role in the mAChR-mediated release of sAPPalpha.

Abstract
We have used single cell fluorescence imaging techniques to examine the role that ryanodine receptors play in the stimulus-induced Ca(2+) responses of SH-SY5Y cells. The muscarinic agonist methacholine (1mM) resulted in a Ca(2+) signal in 95% of all cells. Caffeine (30 mM) however stimulated a Ca(2+) signal in only 1-7% of N-type (neuroblastic) cells within any given field. The caffeine response was independent of extracellular Ca(2+), regenerative in nature, and abolished in a use-dependent fashion by ryanodine. In caffeine-responsive cells, the magnitude of the methacholine-induced Ca(2+) signal was inhibited by 75.07 +/- 5.51% by pretreatment with caffeine and ryanodine, suggesting that the caffeine-sensitive store may act as a Ca(2+) source after muscarinic stimulation. When these data were combined with equivalent data from non-caffeine-responsive cells, the degree of apparent inhibition was significantly reduced. In contrast, after store depletion by caffeine, the Ca(2+) signal induced by 55 mM K(+) was potentiated 2.5-fold in the presence of ryanodine, suggesting that the store may act a Ca(2+) sink after depolarisation. We conclude that a caffeine- and ryanodine-sensitive store can act as a Ca(2+) source and sink in SH-SY5Y cells, and that effects of the store can become obscured if data from caffeine-insensitive cells are not excluded.

Abstract
The beta-amyloid peptides derived by proteolytic cleavage from the amyloid precursor protein (APP) play a major role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) by forming aggregated, fibrillary complexes that have been shown to be neurotoxic. The beta-site APP-cleaving enzyme (BACE1) has been identified as the key enzyme leading to beta-amyloid formation, and cholinergic mechanisms have been shown to control APP processing. The present study sought to determine whether BACE1 expression is controlled by muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) subtypes in the neuroblastoma cell line SK-SH-SY5Y. Stimulation of cells with the M1/M3-selective mAChR agonist talsaclidine for 1 hr resulted in a dose-dependent increase in BACE1 expression up to twofold over basal levels. Similar effects of BACE1 up-regulation were observed when protein kinase C was directly activated by phorbol esters. However, when the MAP kinases MEK/ERK were inhibited, BACE1 expression was no longer up-regulated by the activation of M1-mAChR. In contrast, BACE1 expression was suppressed by stimulation of M2-mediated pathways via selective M2-agonist binding or direct activation of adenylate cyclase with forskolin, an effect that was prevented by inhibiting protein kinase A. These results may explain the observed deterioration of AD patients after initial improvements with AChE inhibitor or M1-mAChR agonist treatment.

Abstract
Presenilins are involved in the proteolytic production of Alzheimer's amyloid peptides, but are also known to regulate Ca(2+) homeostasis in various cells types. In the present study, we examined intracellular Ca(2+) stores coupled to muscarinic receptors and capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE) in the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell line, and how these were modulated by over-expression of either wild-type presenilin 1 (PS1wt) or a mutant form of presenilin 1 (PS1 deltaE9) which predisposes to early-onset Alzheimer's disease. Ca(2+) stores discharged by application of 100 microM muscarine (in Ca(2+)-free perfusate) in PS1wt and PS1 DeltaE9 cells were significantly larger than those in control cells, as determined using Fura-2 microfluorimetry. Subsequent CCE, observed in the absence of muscarine when Ca(2+) was re-admitted to the perfusate, was unaffected in PS1wt cells, but significantly suppressed in PS1 deltaE9 cells. However, when Ca(2+) stores were fully depleted with thapsigargin, CCE was similar in all three cell groups. Western blots confirmed increased levels of PS1 in the transfected cells, but also demonstrated that the proportion of intact PS1 in the PS1 deltaE9 cells was far greater than in the other two cell groups. This study represents the first report of modulation of both Ca(2+) stores and CCE in a human, neurone-derived cell line, and indicates a distinct effect of the PS1 mutation deltaE9 over wild-type PS1.

The signalling pathways by which muscarine and epidermal growth factor (EGF) regulate the secretion of the alpha-secretase cleavage product (sAPPalpha) of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) were examined in the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y. Using specific inhibitors it was found that over 80% of sAPPalpha secretion, enhanced by muscarine, occurred via the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2) member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family and was dependent on protein kinase Calpha (PKCalpha) and a member of the Src family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases (Src-TK). In contrast the stimulation of sAPPalpha secretion by EGF was not affected by inhibitors of PKC nor Src-TK but was dependent on ERK1/2. In addition muscarine-enhanced sAPPalpha secretion and ERK1/2 activation were inhibited 60 and 80%, respectively, by micromolar concentrations of the phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI-3K) inhibitor wortmannin. In comparison wortmannin decreased EGF stimulation of sAPPalpha secretion and ERK 1/2 activation by approximately 40%. Unexpectedly, U73122, an inhibitor of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C, did not inhibit muscarine enhancement of sAPPalpha secretion. These data are discussed in relation to a pathway for the enhancement of sAPPalpha secretion by muscarine which involves the activation of a Src-TK by G-protein beta/gamma-subunits leading to activation of PKCalpha, and ERK1/2 by a mechanism not involving phospholipase C.

Abstract
Microfluorimetric measurements of intracellular calcium ion concentration [Ca(2+)](i) were employed to examine the effects of chronic hypoxia (2.5% O(2), 24 h) on Ca(2+) stores and capacitative Ca(2+) entry in human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) cells. Activation of muscarinic receptors evoked rises in [Ca(2+)](i) which were enhanced in chronically hypoxic cells. Transient rises of [Ca(2+)](i) evoked in Ca(2+)-free solutions were greater and decayed more slowly following exposure to chronic hypoxia. In control cells, these transient rises of [Ca(2+)](i) were also enhanced and slowed by removal of external Na(+), whereas the same manoeuvre did not affect responses in chronically hypoxic cells. Capacitative Ca(2+) entry, observed when re-applying Ca(2+) following depletion of intracellular stores, was suppressed in chronically hypoxic cells. Western blots revealed that presenilin-1 levels were unaffected by chronic hypoxia. Exposure of cells to amyloid beta peptide (1-40) also increased transient [Ca(2+)](i) rises, but did not mimic any other effects of chronic hypoxia. Our results indicate that chronic hypoxia causes increased filling of intracellular Ca(2+) stores, suppressed expression or activity of Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange and reduced capacitative Ca(2+) entry. These effects are not attributable to increased amyloid beta peptide or presenilin-1 levels, but are likely to be important in adaptive cellular remodelling in response to prolonged hypoxic or ischemic episodes.

Abstract
The effects of chronic hypoxia (2.5% O(2), 24 h) on [3H]noradrenaline ([3H]NA) release evoked from human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells by depolarisation and by activation of muscarinic receptors was investigated. Depolarization of cells with 100 mM K(+) evoked [3H]NA release, and chronic hypoxia enhanced this release significantly. In fluorimetric studies, the K(+)-evoked rises of [Ca(2+)](i) observed in response to 100 mM K(+) were also significantly enhanced. Muscarine-evoked [3H]NA release was also dramatically enhanced by chronic hypoxia. However, muscarine-induced release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores and subsequent capacitative Ca(2+) entry was unaffected. The protein kinase C inhibitors GF 109 203X and RO-31-8220 did not prevent the enhancement of muscarine-evoked release caused by chronic hypoxia. These findings indicate that chronic hypoxia increases release of [3H]NA from human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. Enhancement of K(+)-evoked release was attributable to an enhancement of depolarisation-mediated Ca(2+) influx. In contrast, the larger enhancement of muscarine-evoked [3H]NA release was not due to greater release of Ca(2+) from internal stores, nor due to enhanced Ca(2+) influx. Furthermore, it was not attributable to activation of protein kinase C. These findings suggest that enhancement of sympathetic output, known to occur following prolonged hypoxia, may be mediated in part by enhancement of exocytosis.

Abstract
The results of in vitro toxicity experiments are not easily extrapolated to 'toxicological risk' for an intact organism. One of the most obvious differences between the situation in vitro and in vivo is the absence of the processes of absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion that govern the exposure of the target tissues of the organism in vivo. The development of biokinetic models is aimed at estimating the relevant target tissue concentration of a compound. In our study, biokinetic models were constructed, where possible, solely on the basis of in vitro derived parameters for biotransformation as well as on partition coefficients determined or calculated from physicochemical structures. Another requirement is the existence of appropriate in vitro biological systems for the measurement of relevant effects. This requires a thorough knowledge of the possible mechanisms of toxic action, and of the physiology of the target organs. When these prerequisites are met (i.e. when the appropriate parameters can be quantified in a non-animal system), then an estimate of the dynamics in vitro can be made (e.g. as a critical active concentration). This will then result in a model describing a compound's dynamics. Eventually, the result of biokinetic and toxicodynamic models will need to be integrated in a compound's hazard and/or risk evaluation. A study carried out in the ECITTS programme showed promising results for the estimation of the acute and chronic systemic toxicity of a number of neurotoxic compounds.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to obtain further understanding of the mechanism by which activation of muscarinic M(1) receptors inhibits K(+)-evoked noradrenaline (NA) release in the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y. Previous studies have found that muscarinic M(1) and M(3) receptors couple to the activation of phospholipase C in SH-SY5Y cells leading to an increase in (a) intracellular calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)) and (b) activation of protein kinase C (PKC). This study used specific inhibitors of PKC and conditions which deplete Ca(2+)(i) stores to examine the role of protein kinase C and changes in [Ca(2+)](i) in mediating the inhibition of K(+)-evoked NA release by muscarine. Our data show that pretreatment of SH-SY5Y cell layers with bisindolylmaleimide I (BIM-I) (i) failed to reverse inhibition of K(+)-evoked NA release by muscarine but (ii) did overcome the attenuation of muscarine inhibition following pretreatment with TPA. Furthermore pretreating cell layers with Ca(2+)-free Hepes buffered saline in the presence of thapsigargin, conditions which prevented muscarine induced increases in [Ca(2+)](i), failed to prevent inhibition of K(+)-evoked NA release by muscarine. The effect of muscarine on K(+)-evoked uptake of Ca(2+)(e) was examined in SH-SY5Y cells loaded with Fura-2. Muscarine inhibited Ca(2+)(e)-uptake by decreasing the rate at which Ca(2+) entered SH-SY5Y cells via voltage sensitive Ca(2+)-channels. Thus this study shows that muscarine inhibits depolarisation-evoked NA release by a mechanism which is not dependent on activation of PKC or release of Ca(2+) from internal stores.

Abstract
We have investigated the effect of 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1), a peroxynitrite donor, on carbachol-induced increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells by means of single cell imaging of [Ca2+]i. SIN-1 potentiated carbachol-induced [Ca2+]i rise regardless of external Ca2+, and the potentiation was completely inhibited by superoxide dismutase, indicating that peroxynitrite may enhance Ca2+ release from intracellular stores. On the other hand, SIN-1 reduced carbachol-induced inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) formation. Genistein, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, potentiated carbachol-induced rise of [Ca2+]i regardless of external Ca2+. These results suggest that peroxynitrite may potentiate the release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores through the perturbation of regulation in tyrosine phosphorylation-dephosphorylation system.

Abstract
Presynaptic nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) on striatal synaptosomes stimulate dopamine release. Partial inhibition by the alpha3beta2-selective alpha-conotoxin-MII indicates heterogeneity of presynaptic nAChRs on dopamine terminals. We have used this alpha-conotoxin and UB-165, a novel hybrid of epibatidine and anatoxin-a, to address the hypothesis that the alpha-conotoxin-MII-insensitive subtype is composed of alpha4 and beta2 subunits. UB-165 shows intermediate potency, compared with the parent molecules, at alpha4beta2* and alpha3-containing binding sites, and resembles epibatidine in its high discrimination of these sites over alpha7-type and muscle binding sites. (+/-)-Epibatidine, (+/-)-anatoxin-a, and (+/-)-UB-165 stimulated [(3)H]-dopamine release from striatal synaptosomes with EC(50) values of 2.4, 134, and 88 nM, and relative efficacies of 1:0.4:0.2, respectively. alpha-Conotoxin-MII inhibited release evoked by these agonists by 48, 56, and 88%, respectively, suggesting that (+/-)-UB-165 is a very poor agonist at the alpha-conotoxin-MII-insensitive nAChR subtype. In assays of (86)Rb(+) efflux from thalamic synaptosomes, a model of an alpha4beta2* nAChR response, (+/-)-UB-165 was a very weak partial agonist; the low efficacy of (+/-)-UB-165 at alpha4beta2 nAChR was confirmed in Xenopus oocytes expressing various combinations of human nAChR subunits. In contrast, (+/-)-UB-165 and (+/-)-anatoxin-a were similarly efficacious and similarly sensitive to alpha-conotoxin-MII in increasing intracellular Ca(2+) in SH-SY5Y cells, a functional assay for native alpha3-containing nAChR. These data support the involvement of alpha4beta2* nAChR in the presynaptic modulation of striatal dopamine release and illustrate the utility of exploiting a novel partial agonist, together with a selective antagonist, to dissect the functional roles of nAChR subtypes in the brain.

Abstract
Fast confocal laser-scanning microscopy was used to study spatiotemporal properties of IP(3)-mediated Ca(2+) release signals in human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. [Ca(2+)](i) increases were not affected by ryanodine (30 microgM) or caffeine (10 mM) and largely insensitive to removal of external Ca(2+), indicating predominance of IP(3)-induced Ca(2+) release. Ca(2+) signals evoked by high concentration (10 microM) of the muscarinic agonist carbachol appeared as self-propagating waves initiating in cell processes. At low carbachol concentrations (500 nM) Ca(2+) changes in most cells displayed striking spatiotemporal heterogeneity. The Ca(2+) response in the cell body was delayed and had a smaller amplitude and a slower rise time than that in processes. Ca(2+) changes in processes either occurred in a homogeneous manner throughout the whole process or were sometimes confined to hot spots. Regional differences in surface-to-volume ratio appear to be critical clues that determine the spatiotemporal pattern of intracellular Ca(2+) release signals.

Abstract
The effect of protein kinase C (PKC) on the release of neurotransmitters from a number preparations, including sympathetic nerve endings, brain slices, synaptosomes, and neuronally derived cell lines, is considered. A comparison is drawn between effects of activation of PKC on neurotransmitter release from small synaptic vesicles and large dense-cored vesicles. The enhancement of neurotransmitter release is discussed in relation to the effect of PKC on: 1. Rearrangement of the F-actin-based cytoskeleton, including the possible role of MARCKS in this process, to allow access of large dense-cored vesicles to release sites on the plasma membrane. 2. Phosphorylation of key components in the SNAP/SNARE complex associated with the docking and fusion of vesicles at site of secretion. 3. Ion channel activity, particularly Ca2+ channels.

Abstract
The effect of ethanol on the characteristics of carbachol-stimulated release of Ca2+ from intracellular Ca2+ stores was studied in single SH-SY5Y cells. Stimulation with carbachol, in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, elicited a rapid Ca2+ increase in SH-SY5Y cells peaking within seconds after addition of maximal agonist concentration. The Ca2+ response pattern in single cells resembled the population response, and there was no evidence of oscillatory changes in cytosolic [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i). However, cell-to-cell variability could be detected in the magnitude and the latency time of the response, and in the rate of [Ca2+]i increase. In a carbachol dose-response analysis, the EC50 for the number of responsive cells and for the peak [Ca2+]i response was lower than that for carbachol-induced inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation by a factor of 5 to 50. Ethanol (100 mM) caused a significant suppression of the number of responsive cells, but only when cells were stimulated with nonsaturating carbachol concentrations (1 and 10 microM). The suppression by ethanol was evident primarily in those cells that gave a Ca2+ response after several seconds of stimulation, whereas cells that responded within the initial seconds of receptor stimulation remained relatively unaffected. In responding cells stimulated with 10 microM carbachol, ethanol exposure also suppressed the maximal Ca2+ increase primarily in those cells that responded late. We suggest that ethanol suppression of muscarinic receptor-mediated signal transduction through the phospholipase C pathway may depend on the potentiation of feedback inhibition that requires receptor stimulation.

Abstract
In order to identify potential actions of lithium, the primary therapeutic agent for bipolar affective disorder, on processes regulating gene expression, its effects on two transcription factors, AP-1 and NF-kappaB, were measured in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. The cholinergic agonist carbachol concentration-dependently stimulated AP-1 (EC50 = 2 microM) and NF-kappaB (EC50 = 14 microM). Pretreatment for 24 h with a therapeutically relevant concentration of lithium (1 mM) substantially inhibited (30-35%) carbachol-stimulation AP-1 but not NF-kappaB. Inhibition of carbachol-induced AP-1 was directly related to the concentration of lithium (1-20 mM). Besides being differentially sensitive to inhibition by lithium, activation of AP-1 and NF-kappaB demonstrated different carbachol EC50 concentrations, and carbachol-induced activation of AP-1, but not NF-kappaB, was inhibited by treating cells with Ni2+, which blocks receptor-mediated calcium influx. These findings demonstrate that one mechanism by which lithium can influence the expression of specific genes is through the selective modulation of signaling processes which emanate from cholinergic receptor stimulation.

Abstract
We investigated the muscarinic activation of Ca(2+)-activated Cl- currents [ICl(Ca)] in voltage-clamped equine tracheal myocytes. The threshold of cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) required for activation of ICl(Ca) was 202 +/- 22 nM, and full activation of the current occurred at 771 +/- 31 nM. Hexahydro-sila-difenidol (M3 antagonist) inhibited the methacholine-induced phasic [Ca2+]i increase and ICl(Ca) in a concentration-dependent manner, whereas methoctramine (M2 antagonist) only slightly attenuated the [Ca2+]i increase and ICl(Ca) (14.8 and 21.4%, respectively), consistent with incomplete selectivity. Dialysis of heparin (10 mg/ml) blocked methacholine-induced [Ca2+]i and ICl(Ca) but had no effect on the caffeine-induced Ca2+ release or ICl(Ca); inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (100 microM) induced ICl(Ca) and blocked the methacholine current. Conversely, ruthenium red (50 microM) prevented the caffeine-induced [Ca2+]i release and ICl(Ca) but had no effect on methacholine-induced [Ca2+]i or current. Intracellular dialysis of the calmodulin antagonist N-(6-aminohexyl)-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7, 500 microM) or the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase inhibitor KN93 (5 microM) had no effect on the [Ca2+]i increase or ICl(Ca). Pertussis toxin (0.5 mg/ml) did not affect the increase in [Ca2+]i or ICl(Ca). Dialysis with antibodies directed against the alpha-subunit of Gq/G11 (Gq alpha/ G alpha 11) blocked the methacholine-induced ICl(Ca) in a concentration-dependent manner, whereas anti-G alpha i-1/G alpha 1-2 antibodies (1:35) and anti-G alpha i-3/G(o) alpha antibodies (1:35) were without effect. The results indicate that stimulation of phospholipase C via M3/Gq proteins is the predominant signaling pathway for the activation of ICl(Ca); at high agonist concentrations, Ca(2+)-induced Ca2+ release does not appear to play a prominent role in muscarinic signaling.

Abstract
Stimulation of human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells by a muscarinic receptor agonist, carbachol (CCh; 1 mM), elevated levels of free intracellular calcium and subsequently increased the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Quinuclidinylbenzilate (QNB) binding increased at 1 h after CCh, but returned back to the control level at 3 h. Production of ROS increased, however, during the 3 h time period. CCh also increased the translocation of protein kinase C (PKC) to the membrane. ROS production was completely blocked by atropine and a PKC inhibitor, Ro 31-8220. These results show that increased ROS production was a result of muscarinic receptor stimulation, and that PKC had an active role in this cellular stimulation. ROS production upon cellular stimulation by CCh was completely inhibited also by superoxide dismutase, and partially by catalase, indicating that the formation of superoxide anion dominated in cholinergic-induced generation of ROS in human neuroblastoma cells. These results also show that muscarinic stimulation causes sustained ROS production in human neuroblastoma cells. The slow increase in ROS production by CCh suggest a stepwise cascade of events leading to oxidative stress with a triggering role of cholinergic muscarinic receptors in this process.

Ca2+ entry following Ca2+ store depletion was examined in the human neuroblastoma cell line, SH-SY5Y, by measuring the concentration of intracellular free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) with fura-2. Application of the muscarinic agonist oxotremorine-M (oxo-M) caused an increase in [Ca2+]i. This consisted of a peak, mediated by release of Ca2+ from internal stores followed by a sustained plateau, mediated by Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane. The Ca2+ entry resulted from depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores This pathway was further characterized in the presence of thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the Ca2+ ATPase involved in replenishing IP3-sensitive stores. Stores were first depleted with oxo-M and thapsigargin in the absence of extracellular Ca2+. After washout of oxo-M, subsequent exposure to Ca2+ evoked reproducible increases in [Ca2+]i. Application of oxo-M plus Ca2+ had little effect on the increases in [Ca2+]i, indicating that in SH-SY5Y cells, agonist-dependent pathways contribute little to Ca2+ entry following store depletion. Mn2+, Sr2+ and Ba2+ were permeable through this pathway. Mn2+ and Ba2+ also showed slight permeability in the absence of store depletion. Ca2+ entry following store depletion was blocked by La3+ (IC50 = 75 nM) and by SKF 96365. La3+ blocked Mn2+ entry through the pathway activated by store depletion but did not affect basal Mn2+ permeability. These results indicate that SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells have an agonist-independent Ca2+ entry pathway activated by store depletion.

Abstract
A stable cell line expressing the angiotensin II (AII) receptor has been obtained by transfecting the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y with the plasmid pCEP4 containing the entire coding region of the rat angiotensin AII receptor AT1A. Angiotensin II (AII; 1-100 nM) evokes the release of [3H]noradrenaline ([3H]NA) in this cell line. Pretreatment with 100 nM 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) enhances the AII-evoked release of [3H]NA approximately two-fold. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]o) decreases 100 nM AII-evoked release of [3H]NA by over 50% both in the presence and absence of TPA. AII increases intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) in this cell line which is consistent with the AT1A receptor being coupled to phospholipase C. Pretreatment with 100 nM TPA for 8 min attenuated the effect of AII on [Ca2+]i. The effects of AT1A receptor stimulation are therefore regulated differently in this cell line by activation of protein kinase C (PKC). Thus a useful cell line has been obtained from the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y in which to study at the molecular level the mechanism(s) by which AII regulates NA release.

Abstract
1. Recent data suggesting that the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y is a suitable cell line in which to study the effect of second messengers on NA release are discussed in the context of current views on exocytosis. 2. Release of NA is evoked by depolarization, as well as activation of muscarinic (M3) and bradykinin (B2) receptors in SH-SY5Y cells which have not been differentiated by the addition of growth factors. 3. Evoked release is enhanced by activation of protein kinase C. 4. Activation of protein kinase C decreases the changes in intracellular calcium evoked by carbachol, bradykinin and 100 mM K+. 5. SH-SY5Y express N-type and L-type voltage sensitive Ca2+ channels. L-Type Ca(2+)-channels are coupled to NA release under conditions of weak depolarization. However with strong depolarization (100 mM K+) both L-type and N-type channels are involved. 6. Muscarinic- and neuropeptide Y receptors are coupled to the inhibition of Ca2+ channel activity.

Abstract
The effect of ethanol on muscarinic receptor-stimulated formation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate was studied in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. Stimulation with carbachol induced a biphasic increase of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate with an initial peak after 10 sec declining to a plateau phase of elevation above basal levels, which was sustained for at least 5 min in the presence of agonist. The peak, but not the plateau phase, was concentration-dependently decreased by exposure to ethanol. Maximal inhibition was obtained within 30 sec of exposure to ethanol. Ethanol caused an increase in the EC50 value of carbachol for the initial rate of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation, measured after 10 sec of stimulation, from 98 microM in the absence to 196 microM in the presence of 100 mM ethanol. The potencies of pirenzepine and hexahydro-sila-difenidol hydrochloride for inhibiting [3H]quinuclidinyl benzilate binding and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation suggest that both phases are mediated via the muscarinic M1 receptor. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate inhibited both phases of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation, whereas okadaic acid and modulators of cAMP-dependent protein kinase were without any effect. There was no inhibitory effect of ethanol when protein kinase C was inhibited by H7 and calphostin C, indicating that the ethanol effect is dependent on protein kinase C activity.

Abstract
A monoclonal antibody, 3B11, was raised to a novel protein, amyloid precursor-like protein 2, which did not recognize amyloid precursor protein. Multiple bands were detected in human brain fractions and cell lysate by Western blotting, indicating the presence of isoforms, 3B11 immunoreactivity was also detected in cerebrospinal fluid and conditioned medium, indicating that the protein is secreted. Immunocytochemistry revealed 3B11 immunoreactivity in sections of human brain.

Abstract
Replacement of Ca2+ with Ba2+ in HEPES-buffered saline stimulated [3H]noradrenalin release in the human neuroblastoma clone SH-SY5Y by up to 20% of the cell content in the absence of other secretory stimuli. The Ba(2+)-evoked release was inhibited by 85% by 3 microM tetrodotoxin and 95% by 5 microM nifedipine. Ba2+ also increased the potency of K(+)-evoked release of [3H]noradrenalin, as maximal release was observed with 60 mM K+ compared with the 100 mM K+ necessary to achieve maximal release in the presence of Ca2+. In contrast, replacing Ca2+ with Ba2+ had little effect on carbachol- and bradykinin-evoked release of [3H]noradrenalin. No evidence was obtained from studies on changes in [Ca2+]i (in response to 100 microM carbachol) using fura-2 that Ba2+ could enter intracellular stores in SH-SY5Y cells. Whole-cell patch-clamp studies showed that Ba2+ depolarizes SH-SY5Y cells as well as enhancing inward Ca2+ channel currents and shifting their voltage dependence to more negative values. These results are discussed in terms of the hypothesis that Ba2+ blocks K+ channels, leading to depolarization followed by opening of voltage-sensitive Na+ channels. This in turn opens voltage-sensitive L-type Ca2+ channels, which are coupled to the release of [3H]noradrenalin in SH-SY5Y cells.

Abstract
1. Muscarinic and bradykinin receptor-mediated Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulation, Ca2+ mobilization and Ca2+ entry have been examined in human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. This has allowed both direct comparison of signalling events by two receptor types potentially linked to the same transduction pathway and an investigation of the interactions between the components of this pathway. 2. Stimulation of muscarinic receptors with carbachol produced biphasic accumulations of Ins(1,4,5)P3 consisting of a rapid peak followed by a lower sustained phase. Both phases were dose-dependent but the potency of elevation at peak was significantly less than that of the sustained phase. Bradykinin also dose-dependently stimulated Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulation but responses were smaller and not sustained. 3. Lowering of [Ca2+]e reduced basal Ins(1,4,5)P3 levels. Peak Ins(1,4,5)P3 elevation in response to carbachol and bradykinin were lowered by an amount approximating this reduction over the entire dose-response curves. Sustained Ins(1,4,5)P3 elevation in response to carbachol showed a more marked absolute reduction. Agonist potencies were unaffected by lowering [Ca2+]e. Thus, a consistent but small amount of PLC activity during rapid activation appears to be sensitive to lowered [Ca2+]e, whilst activity during sustained stimulation is greatly facilitated by external Ca2+, probably through Ca2+ entry. 4. The temporal- and dose-dependency of carbachol-mediated Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulations were unaffected by loading cells with fura-2, thus allowing direct comparison of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and [Ca2+]i changes monitored by fura-2. 5. Changes in [Ca2+]i by both agonists revealed temporal patterns that were similar to Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulations. Only carbachol stimulated a marked sustained [Ca2+]i signal and this was fully dependent on external Ca2+. 6. All agonist-mediated [Ca2+]i elevations occurred with significantly greater potency than that of the respective Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulations. Further examination of peak elevations in response to carbachol indicated that this was independent of Ca2+ entry. Thus, a major site for amplification of the potency of rapid agonist-mediated responses lies at the level of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor. 7. The transient nature of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and [Ca2+]i peaks followed by either lower but sustained levels with carbachol or a return to basal levels with bradykinin suggests rapid but partial desensitization of the muscarinic receptor and complete desensitization of the bradykinin receptor. This indicates receptor-specific desensitization. Further analysis of this was provided by detecting accumulations of [3H]-inositol phosphates ([3H]-InsPs) in Li(+)-blocked, myo-[3H]-inositol labelled cells. Carbachol produced a rapid accumulation over the first minute, followed by a slower linear accumulation for at least 29 min. At this point accumulations were dose-related with a potency similar to that of sustained Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulation.However, bradykinin produced a minor accumulation of [3H]-InsPs, maximal by 1 min. Thus,analysis of PLC activation by measurement of [3H]-InsPs over relatively long time frames will indicate the ability of agonists for predominantly sustained PLC activation, potentially driven by a partially desensitized receptor, as opposed to rapid activation by a fully sensitized receptor.8. These data provide quantitative comparisons between and within components of the receptor mediated phosphoinositide and Ca2+ signalling pathway, provide mechanistic insights into regulation of these components and characterize a model system in which heterologous interaction between two receptors linked to the same transduction pathway may be examined.

Abstract
The effect of muscarinic agonists on the spontaneous release of [3H]GABA was investigated in vitro on rat substantia nigra slices. Acetylcholine (5 x 10(-5) M) in the presence of eserine (5 x 10(-5) M) induced a 12.3% increase of the spontaneous release of [3H]GABA. Similarly, carbachol (5 x 10(-4) M) enhanced by 9% the release of [3H]GABA. This effect was Ca(2+)-dependent, it was abolished in the presence of 0.4 mM Ca2+ and enhanced from 9 to 17% when Ca(2+)-concentration of the superfusion medium was increased from 1.3 to 2.4 mM. The carbachol effect was mediated by muscarinic receptors since it was abolished by atropine (2 x 10(-6) M). The pharmacologically M2 muscarinic receptor subtypes seems to be involved as the carbachol-induced effect was abolished by AF-DX384MS (10(-6) M), an M2 antagonist and was only partially reversed by pirenzepine (10(-5) and 10(-4) M), an M1 antagonist which at these doses also block the M2 receptors. The absence of effect of SCH23390 (10(-6) M) a D1 antagonist as well as the lack of effect of CNQX (10(-5) M) and dizocilpine maleate (10(-6) M), two glutamate antagonists, on the carbachol-induced effect indicated that neither dopamine (through D1 receptors) nor glutamate (through ionotropic receptors) were involved in the response. In addition, the persistence of the carbachol-induced effect in the presence of tetrodotoxin (2 x 10(-7) M) suggests a direct muscarinic-mediated modulation of [3H]GABA. The localization of muscarinic receptors on striatonigral fibres was confirmed by autoradiographic studies showing a decrease of [3H]pirenzepine binding in the substantia nigra after a unilateral striatal lesion induced by kainic acid injection. This latter result provides evidence of the presence of M1 receptors on striatonigral terminals as the concentration of [3H]pirenzepine used (10 nM) is M1-selective. These results indicate a cholinergic modulation of GABA release in the rat substantia nigra mediated by muscarinic receptors localized on striatonigral terminals. The involvement of the m4 muscarinic receptor subtype that have a M1/M2 pharmacology is discussed.

Abstract
Bradykinin (BK) evoked [3H]noradrenaline ([3H]NA) release from the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y and this was enhanced by pre-treatment with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) for 8 min. This effect of BK was inhibited by 500 microM [D-Phe7]BK and 100 microM [Thi5,8,D-Phe7]BK but not by 500 microM [Des-Arg9,Leu8]BK. The BK (B1)-agonist [Des-Arg9]BK did not evoke [3H]NA release. This suggested that SH-SY5Y expressed BK (B2)-receptors coupled to the release of [3H]NA. BK acting at B2-receptors, also elevated intracellular calcium and depolarized SH-SY5Y cells. Although pre-treatment of SH-SY5Y cells with TPA enhanced BK-evoked [3H]NA release, the elevation of intracellular calcium [Ca2+]; was decreased by about 50%. BK-evoked release of [3H]NA in cells not pre-treated with phorbol ester was only 23% dependent on extracellular calcium. In comparison, following phorbol ester treatment approximately 40% of [3H]NA release was dependent on extracellular calcium. Nifedipine (5 microM), CoCl2 (1 mM) and NiCl2 (1 mM) inhibited NA release in SH-SY5Y cells pre-treated with TPA by 16.0, 47 and 44%, respectively. The results of this study showed that BK, acting at B2-receptors, activated [3H]NA release in SH-SY5Y. Part of this effect appeared to be due to activation of L-type calcium channels but the majority of BK-evoked [3H]NA release in SH-SY5Y cells appeared to depend on [Ca2+]i.

Abstract
In this study, the signal cascade transducing carbachol stimulation into c-fos expression in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells was investigated. 1,2-Diacylglycerol formation and c-fos expression were mediated via stimulation of muscarinic M1 receptors and the first 5 min of receptor stimulation were critical for these events. Application of 1,2-dioctanoylglycerol induced c-fos expression and this, as well as carbachol-stimulated c-fos expression, was inhibited by protein kinase C inhibitors. Increasing the intracellular Ca2+ concentration had only small effects on c-fos expression. There was a dependency on extracellular Ca2+ for maximal c-fos expression and 1,2-diacylglycerol formation. The carbachol-stimulated c-fos expression was potentiated by application of the protein phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid. These results demonstrate the importance of 1,2-diacylglycerol formation for muscarinic receptor-stimulated, protein kinase C-mediated c-fos expression in the SH-SY5Y cells and that this cascade is counteracted by an okadaic acid-sensitive protein phosphatase.

Abstract
1. The regulation of cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) during exposure to carbachol was measured directly in canine cultured tracheal smooth muscle cells (TSMCs) loaded with fura-2. Stimulation of muscarinic cholinoceptors (muscarinic AChRs) by carbachol produced a dose-dependent rise in [Ca2+]i which was followed by a stable plateau phase. The EC50 values of carbachol for the peak and sustained plateau responses were 0.34 and 0.33 microM, respectively. 2. Atropine (10 microM) prevented all the responses to carbachol, and when added during a response to carbachol, significantly, but not completely decreased [Ca2+]i within 5 s. Therefore, the changes in [Ca2+]i by carbachol were mediated through the muscarinic AChRs. 3. AF-DX 116 (a selective M2 antagonist) and 4-diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperidine (4-DAMP, a selective M3 antagonist) inhibited the carbachol-stimulated increase in [Ca2+]i with pKB values of 6.4 and 9.4, respectively, corresponding to low affinity for AF-DX 119 and high affinity for 4-DAMP in antagonizing this response. 4. The plateau elevation of [Ca2+]i was dependent on the presence of external Ca2+. Removal of Ca2+ by the addition of 2 mM EGTA caused the [Ca2+]i to decline rapidly to the resting level. In the absence of external Ca2+, only an initial transient peak of [Ca2+]i was seen which then declined to the resting level; the sustained elevation of [Ca2+]i could then be evoked by the addition of Ca2+ (1.8 mM) in the continued presence of carbachol. 5.Ca2+ influx was required for the changes of [Ca2+]i, since the Ca2+-channel blockers, diltiazem(10 microM), nifedipine (10 microM), verapamil (10 microM) and Ni2+ (5 mM), decreased both the initial and sustained elevation of [Ca2+], in response to carbachol. These Ca2+-channel blockers also decreased the sustained elevation of [Ca2+], when applied during the plateau phase.6. In conclusion, we have demonstrated that the initial detectable increase in carbachol-stimulated[Ca2+]J is due to the release of Ca2+ from internal stores, followed by the flux of external Ca2+ into the cells. This influx of extracellular Ca2+ partially involves an L-type Ca2+-channel. M3 muscarinic receptors appear to mediate the Ca2+ mobilization in canine TSMCs.

Abstract
Neuroblastoma cells were used to examine the effect of chronic exposure to increased concentrations of glucose, galactose, or L-fucose on bradykinin-stimulated intracellular calcium release using the calcium indicator fluo-3. Bradykinin caused a concentration dependent increase in the intracellular calcium concentration and phosphoinositide hydrolysis in neuroblastoma cells. Norepinephrine, carbachol, serotonin, and thapsigargin also increased the calcium concentration. Treatment of the cells with 10(-6) M bradykinin exhausts calcium release such that the successive treatment of the cells with norepinephrine, carbachol, or serotonin results in no secondary response. In contrast, bradykinin treatment of the cells following exposure to norepinephrine, carbachol, or serotonin caused a secondary increase in calcium release. These results suggest that several hormone responsive calcium pools may exist in neuroblastoma cells or that norepinephrine, carbachol, or serotonin may not fully stimulate calcium release. Bradykinin-stimulated calcium release is not effected by chronic exposure of the cells to increased concentrations of glucose, galactose, or L-fucose. Suggesting that hormone-stimulated calcium release is not an abnormality that develops in neural cells exposed to conditions that mimic the diabetic milieu. In addition, these studies provide evidence that fluo-3 is a good fluorescent indicator for the study of calcium mobilization in cultured neuroblastoma cells.

Abstract
Dimethylphenylpiperazinium iodide (a nicotinic agonist) evokes noradrenaline release from human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells that have been pretreated with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate for 8 min. This effect of dimethylphenylpiperazinium iodide was inhibited by 1 microM mecamylamine but not by 1 microM atropine, which suggests that SH-SY5Y cells express nicotinic receptors coupled to the release of noradrenaline. Dimethylphenylpiperazinium iodide-evoked release was enhanced by 5 microM Bay K 8644 (an L-type calcium agonist) and inhibited by 1 microM nifedipine. Dimethylphenylpiperazinium iodide depolarised SH-SY5Y cells and enhanced the level of intracellular calcium in cells loaded with fura 2. The effects of dimethylphenylpiperazinium iodide on noradrenaline release, depolarisation, and intracellular calcium levels were all inhibited by 1 microM desmethylimipramine. The results of this study show that nicotinic receptors in SH-SY5Y cells stimulate noradrenaline release by activation of L-type calcium channels.

Abstract
Electrophysiological responses of enzymatically isolated type I cells from the neonatal rat carotid body to cholinergic agonists were examined using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. Inward currents were evoked in cells clamped at -70 mV in response to bath-applied carbachol and two selective nicotinic agonists, nicotine and dimethylphenylpiperazinium. Muscarine failed to produce any change in membrane current. Responses to nicotine were concentration-dependent and also voltage-dependent, showing strong rectification positive to -40 mV. Currents evoked by nicotine were reduced or abolished in the presence of mecamylamine and also by high concentrations of atropine (10 or 100 microM). Under "current-clamp", nicotine was shown to depolarize type I cells, an effect which was only slowly reversible, but which could be rapidly attenuated by introduction of mecamylamine to the perfusate. In voltage-clamped cells, nicotine could evoke inward currents when extracellular Na+ was replaced by Ca2+. Our results demonstrate the presence of functional nicotinic acetylcholine receptors on type I cells of the neonatal rat carotid body. Activation of these receptors could lead to excitation of the intact carotid body by either of two possible mechanisms: depolarization of type I cells sufficient to open voltage-gated Ca2+ channels, or Ca2+ influx through the receptor pore itself. Either (or both) mechanisms could trigger catecholamine release from type I cells, which is a fundamental step in chemotransmission.

Abstract
Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA; a lipoxygenase inhibitor), LY-270766 (an inhibitor of 5-lipoxygenase), and the diacylglycerol lipase inhibitor RG 80267 completely eliminated potassium-evoked release of [3H]-noradrenaline ([3H]NA) from the human neuroblastoma clone SH-SY5Y with IC50 values of 10, 15, and 30 microM, respectively. In contrast, these inhibitors only partially inhibited carbachol-evoked release and had little effect on the calcium ionophore A23187-evoked release of NA in this cell line. Arachidonic acid partially inhibited potassium- and A23187-evoked release but did not reverse the inhibition of potassium-evoked release observed in the presence of RG 80267. These studies suggest that arachidonic acid (or its lipoxygenase products) are not important intermediates in the regulation of exocytosis in SH-SY5Y. This conclusion is strengthened by our studies in which SH-SY5Y cells were grown in medium supplemented with bovine serum albumin-linoleic acid (50 microM). Under these conditions there was a selective increase in content of membrane polyunsaturated fatty acids of the omega 6 series, including arachidonic acid; however, these changes did not effect potassium-, veratridine-, carbachol-, or calcium ionophore-evoked release of [3H]NA.

Abstract
Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings were used to investigate nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in the human neuroblastoma cell line, SH-SY5Y. Acetylcholine, nicotine and the neuronal nAChR agonist dimethylphenylpiperazinium iodide (DMPP), but not muscarine, all evoked inward currents in the cells (voltage-clamped at -60 mV). DMPP's actions were concentration- and voltage-dependent, and were antagonised by the neuronal nAChR antagonist mecamylamine (1-3 microM). Atropine was ineffective at 0.1 microM, but at 1 microM caused significant reductions in current amplitudes. Pre-incubation of cells with 2 microM alpha-cobratoxin had no effect on the actions of DMPP, and inward currents could also be induced when extracellular NaCl was replaced with CaCl2. DMPP also reversibly depolarized SH-SY5Y cells. These findings clearly identify nAChRs in SH-SY5Y cells, and provide two possible mechanisms by which receptor activation may lead to noradrenaline release, namely by triggering Ca2+ influx through the nAChR itself or by opening voltage-gated Ca2+ channels.

Abstract
Phosphatidylserine synthesis was studied in glioma C6 cells with [14C]serine and in the presence or absence of agents which increase the level of [Ca2+]i. It was found that glutamate and acetylcholine inhibited this synthesis by up to 40%, whereas thapsigargin and the ionophore A23187 inhibited by up to 70%. The inhibitory effect of thapsigargin and the A23187 was observed in Ca(2+)-free medium. The data show that the inhibition of this synthesis is caused by the Ca(2+)-depletion from endoplasmic reticulum, suggesting that the synthesis of phosphatidylserine occurs on the luminal side of these structures and can be regulated by transmembrane signaling systems.

Abstract
Short-term pretreatment (9 min) with the phorbol ester 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) alone had no effect on the basal release of [3H]noradrenaline ([3H]NA), but enhanced K+ (100 mM)-, acetylcholine (0.1 mM)-, carbachol (1 mM)-, muscarine (1 mM)- and arecoline (1 mM)-evoked release by 2.3-, 6.4-, 3.0-, 2.0- and 2.0-fold respectively in SH-SY5Y cells. Maximum effects of PMA were observed after a 10 min preincubation at a concentration of 0.1 microM. There was a 4-fold decrease in the EC50 values (concentration required for 50% of maximal stimulation) observed for carbachol- and acetylcholine-evoked release of [3H]NA in the presence of PMA. The inactive phorbol ester 4 alpha-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate did not alter the K(+)- or carbachol-evoked release of [3H]NA. The enhancement of release in the presence of PMA was more potently inhibited by the protein kinase C inhibitors RO 31-7549 [concentration required for 50% inhibition (IC50) = 0.18 microM/bd and RO 31-8220 (IC50 = 0.56 microM) than by either polymyxin-B or H-7. Furthermore, in the absence of PMA, both K(+)- and carbachol-evoked release was inhibited by these antagonists. Atropine, hexahydro-sila-difenidol and pirenzepine antagonized the PMA-enhanced carbachol-evoked release of [3H]NA, with Ki values of 2.75 +/- 0.25 nM, 2.6 +/- 0.64 nM and 294 +/- 17 nM respectively. These values were consistent with the coupling of an M3 muscarinic receptor to the release of [3H]NA in SH-SY5Y cells. Whereas pretreatment with PMA (5 min) enhanced M3-evoked release of [3H]NA, it decreased the muscarinic-agonist-evoked initial peak (greater than 85%) and plateau phase in intracellular Ca2+. These results suggest that noradrenaline release evoked by muscarinic agonists was triggered not only by relatively small changes in Ca2+ but also by activation of protein kinase C.
