Abstract
Ion channels are transmembrane structures that allow the passage of ions across cell membranes such as the plasma membrane or the membranes of various organelles like the nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus or mitochondria. Aberrant expression of various ion channels has been demonstrated in several tumor cells, leading to the promotion of key functions in tumor development, such as cell proliferation, resistance to apoptosis, angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis. The link between ion channels and these key biological functions that promote tumor development has led to the classification of cancers as oncochannelopathies. Among all ion channels, the most varied and numerous, forming the largest family, are the potassium channels, with over 70 genes encoding them in humans. In this context, this review will provide a non-exhaustive overview of the role of plasma membrane potassium channels in cancer, describing 1) the nomenclature and structure of potassium channels, 2) the role of these channels in the control of biological functions that promotes tumor development such as proliferation, migration and cell death, and 3) the role of two particular classes of potassium channels, the SKCa- and Kv1- type potassium channels in cancer progression.

Abstract
Atractylodes macrocephala ( AM) is a famous traditional Chinese medicine for intestinal epithelial restitution through activating Ca2+ channels. However, the roles of specific AM compositions in intestinal epithelial restitution are sparse. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the concrete effects of the 4 active ingredients (atractylon, β-eudesmol, atractylenolide II, atractylenolide III) of AM and their combination on intestinal epithelial repair and the Ca2+ pathway in intestinal epithelial cell (IEC-6) cells. First, the best combination of the 4 ingredients with an optimal mixing ratio of atractylon: β-eudesmol: atractylenolide II: atractylenolide III = 1:2:2:2 was demonstrated by a 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5 diphenyl tetrazolium bromide orthogonal experiment. Subsequently, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure anti-inflammatory cytokine levels, the migratory ability was evaluated by cell scratch experiments, cell cycle analysis and [Ca2+]cyt concentration in cells were detected by flow cytometry, and the expression of the Ca2+ pathway-related genes was detected by immunofluorescence staining, quantitative polymerase chain reaction and whole blood assays. Our result showed that atractylon, β-Eudesmol, atractylenolide II, and atractylenolide III showed different abilities to promote the IEC-6 cells proliferation, migration, and the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-2, IL-10, and ornithine decarboxylase, as well as the intracellular [Ca2+]cyt concentration through stromal interaction molecule 1 transposition to activate Ca2+ pathway. Thereinto, atractylenolide III was the main active ingredient of AM for pro-proliferation and anti-inflammation, and the combination of 4 AM ingredients performed better beneficial effects on IEC-6 cells. Therefore, our study suggested that atractylenolide III was the active ingredient of AM for intestinal epithelial repair through activating the Ca2+ pathway, and the 4 ingredients of AM have a synergy in intestinal epithelial repair.

Increasing cytosolic Ca 2+ levels restore cell proliferation and stem cell potency in aged MSCs. Stem Cell Res 2021; 56:102560. [PMID: 34624617 PMCID: PMC8596392 DOI: 10.1016/j.scr.2021.102560] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2021] [Revised: 09/14/2021] [Accepted: 09/30/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Aging is an inescapable complex physiological but extendable process, and all cells, including stem cells, are altered over time. Diverse mechanism(s) could modulate stem cell number, their proliferation rate, and promote tissue repair during aging that leads to longevity. However, the factors that could restore aging stem cell potency and would lead to healthy aging are not fully identified. Here we show that maintaining cytosolic Ca2+ levels was essential for modulating stem cells function in aged mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Increasing external Ca2+ induced spindle shape stem cell morphology and maintained stem cell surface marker expression in aged bone marrow-derived MSCs. Similarly, stem cell survival and proliferation of aged MSCs was dependent on cytosolic Ca2+ levels. Importantly, Ca2+ entry potentiated cell cycle progression, and stem cell potential was increased in cells incubated with higher external Ca2+. Moreover, blocking Ca2+ entry using SKF 96365, decreased stem cell survival and its proliferation but, treatment with 2-APB did not significantly affected cell proliferation, rather only modulated cell viability. Evaluation of Ca2+ entry channels, showed that TRPC1/Orai1/Orai3 and their regulator STIM1 was essential for MSCs proliferation/viability as gene silencing of Orai1/Orai3/TRPC1/STIM1 significantly inhibited stem cell viability. Finally, MSCs isolated from aged mice that were subjected to higher Ca2+ levels, were able to rescue age-induced loss of MSCs function. Together these results suggest that Ca2+ entry is essential for preventing the loss of aged stem cell function and supplementing Ca2+ not only restored their proliferative potential but, allowed them to develop into younger stem cell lineages that could be critical for regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are widely used in various manufacturing processes. Accumulation of these chemicals has adverse effects on human health, including inflammation in multiple organs, yet how PFAS are sensed by host cells, and how tissue inflammation eventually incurs, is still unclear. Here, we show that the double-stranded DNA receptor AIM2 is able to recognize perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), a common form of PFAS, to trigger IL-1β secretion and pyroptosis. Mechanistically, PFOS activates the AIM2 inflammasome in a process involving mitochondrial DNA release through the Ca2+-PKC-NF-κB/JNK-BAX/BAK axis. Accordingly, Aim2-/- mice have reduced PFOS-induced inflammation, as well as tissue damage in the lungs, livers, and kidneys in both their basic condition and in an asthmatic exacerbation model. Our results thus suggest a function of AIM2 in PFOS-mediated tissue inflammation, and identify AIM2 as a major pattern recognition receptor in response to the environmental organic pollutants.

Abstract
Stem cells hold indefinite self-renewable capability that can be differentiated into all desired cell types. Based on their plasticity potential, they are divided into totipotent (morula stage cells), pluripotent (embryonic stem cells), multipotent (hematopoietic stem cells, multipotent adult progenitor stem cells, and mesenchymal stem cells [MSCs]), and unipotent (progenitor cells that differentiate into a single lineage) cells. Though bone marrow is the primary source of multipotent stem cells in adults, other tissues such as adipose tissues, placenta, amniotic fluid, umbilical cord blood, periodontal ligament, and dental pulp also harbor stem cells that can be used for regenerative therapy. In addition, induced pluripotent stem cells also exhibit fundamental properties of self-renewal and differentiation into specialized cells, and thus could be another source for regenerative medicine. Several diseases including neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune diseases, virus infection (also coronavirus disease 2019) have limited success with conventional medicine, and stem cell transplantation is assumed to be the best therapy to treat these disorders. Importantly, MSCs, are by far the best for regenerative medicine due to their limited immune modulation and adequate tissue repair. Moreover, MSCs have the potential to migrate towards the damaged area, which is regulated by various factors and signaling processes. Recent studies have shown that extracellular calcium (Ca2+) promotes the proliferation of MSCs, and thus can assist in transplantation therapy. Ca2+ signaling is a highly adaptable intracellular signal that contains several components such as cell-surface receptors, Ca2+ channels/pumps/exchangers, Ca2+ buffers, and Ca2+ sensors, which together are essential for the appropriate functioning of stem cells and thus modulate their proliferative and regenerative capacity, which will be discussed in this review.

Abstract
Nanosecond pulsed electric fields (nsPEFs) induce changes in the plasma membrane (PM), including PM permeabilization (termed nanoporation), allowing free passage of ions into the cell and, in certain cases, cell death. Recent studies from our laboratory show that the composition of the PM is a critical determinant of PM nanoporation. Thus, we hypothesized that the biological response to nsPEF exposure could be influenced by lipid microdomains, including caveolae, which are specialized invaginations of the PM that are enriched in cholesterol and contain aggregates of important cell signaling proteins, such as caveolin-1 (Cav1). Caveolae play a significant role in cellular signal transduction, including control of calcium influx and cell death by interaction of Cav1 with regulatory signaling proteins. Present results show that depletion of Cav1 increased the influx of calcium, while Cav1 overexpression produced the opposite effect. Additionally, Cav1 is known to bind and sequester important cell signaling proteins within caveolae, rendering the binding partners inactive. Imaging of the PM after nsPEF exposure showed localized depletion of PM Cav1 and results of co-immunoprecipitation studies showed dissociation of two critical Cav1 binding partners (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily C1 (TRPC1) and inositol trisphosphate receptor (IP3R)) after exposure to nsPEFs. Release of TRPC1 and IP3R from Cav1 would activate downstream signaling cascades, including store-operated calcium entry, which could explain the influx in calcium after nsPEF exposure. Results of the current study establish a significant relationship between Cav1 and the activation of cell signaling pathways in response to nsPEFs.

A Novel Peptide Oligomer of Bacitracin Induces M1 Macrophage Polarization by Facilitating Ca 2+ Influx. Nutrients 2020; 12:nu12061603.

Abstract
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are components of the innate immune system and form the first defense against pathogens for various organisms. In the present study, we assessed whether CSP32, a novel AMP oligomer of bacitracin isolated from a strain of Bacillus spp., regulates the polarization of murine macrophage-like RAW 264.7 cells. CSP32 stimulated phagocytosis while inducing the appearance of the typical M1 polarized macrophage phenotype; these M1 macrophages play a role in host defense against pathogens. Furthermore, our results showed that CSP32 enhanced the expression and production of pro-inflammatory mediators, such as cytokines and chemokines. In addition, the CSP32-stimulated inflammatory mediators were induced mainly by the mitogen-activated protein kinase/nuclear factor kappa B (MAPK/NF-κB) signaling pathway during M1 macrophage polarization. In particular, CSP32 markedly increased the numbers of Ca2+-positive macrophages while upregulating phospholipase C and activating protein kinase Cε. Furthermore, the inhibition of intracellular Ca2+ by BAPTA-AM, a Ca2+ chelator, significantly suppressed the CSP32-mediated phagocytosis, inflammatory mediator production, and NF-κB activation. In conclusion, our data suggested that CSP32-stimulated M1 macrophage polarization is dependent on the calcium signaling pathway and may result in enhanced immune capacities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sijunzi decoction, a representative Chinese herbal formula of reinforcing Qi strengthening spleen, has been widely used for treating patients with gastrointestinal diseases and spleen-deficiency syndrome, however, the exact effects and mechanisms are remained unclear. HYPOTHESIS/PURPOSE The migration of intestinal epithelial (IEC-6) cells has been demonstrated to be one of the major repair modalities during the healing of mucosal wounds. Ca2+ is the key factor in regulating cell migration. Thus, this study aimed to elucidate the potential effects and mechanisms of polysaccharides (SJZDP) extracted from Sijunzi decoction in intestinal mucosal restitution. METHOD Cell migration was detected by scratch method with micropipette tip. Western blotting was adopted to evaluate the expression of STIM1 and STIM2 proteins. Immunofluorescence was carried out to assess the translocation of STIM1 protein. Immunoprecipitation was used to determine the levels of STIM1/TRPC1 and STIM1/STIM2 complexes. A indomethacin-induced intestinal mucosal injury rat model was applied. The content of polyamines in intestinal mucosa was detected by high-performance liquid chromatography. The morphological changes in the intestinal mucosa were observed at the end of animal experiment. RESULTS The results showed that treatment with SJZDP significantly promoted cell migration, enhanced the level of STIM1 protein and STIM1/TRPC1 complexes, reduced the level of STIM2 protein and STIM1/STIM2 complexes. Further more, SJZDP exposure promoted the translocation of STIM1 to the plasma membrane. In vivo experiment results, the administration of SJZDP effectively reduced intestinal mucosal injury. CONCLUSION These results revealed that SJZDP promotes intestinal epithelial restitution after wounding, presumably by regulating cellular levels of STIM1 and STIM2 differentially, stimulating the translocation of STIM1, and inducing STIM1/TRPC1 association as well as decreasing the level of STIM1/STIM2.

Abstract
Macrophage plasticity is essential for innate immunity, but in-depth signaling mechanism(s) regulating their functional phenotypes are ill-defined. Here we report that interferon (IFN) γ priming of naive macrophages induces store-mediated Ca2+ entry and inhibition of Ca2+ entry impairs polarization to M1 inflammatory phenotype. In vitro and in vivo functional analyses revealed ORAI1 to be a primary contributor to basal Ca2+ influx in macrophages, whereas IFNγ-induced Ca2+ influx was mediated by TRPC1. Deficiency of TRPC1 displayed abrogated IFNγ-induced M1 inflammatory mediators in macrophages. In a preclinical model of peritonitis by Klebsiella pneumoniae infection, macrophages showed increased Ca2+ influx, which was TRPC1 dependent. Macrophages from infected TRPC1−/− mice showed inhibited expression of M1-associated signature molecules. Furthermore, in human patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome, the level of TRPC1 expression in circulating macrophages directly correlated with M1 inflammatory mediators. Overall, TRPC1-mediated Ca2+ influx is essential for the induction/shaping of macrophage polarization to M1 inflammatory phenotype. TRPC1 mediates sterile or infection-induced Ca2+ influx and M1 phenotype in macrophages ORAI1 mediates the basal Ca2+ influx in macrophages In patients with SIRS, the TRPC1 level correlates with M1 inflammatory mediators in macrophages

Abstract
Airway remodeling with progressive epithelial alterations in the respiratory tract is a severe consequence of asthma. Although dysfunctional signaling transduction is attributed to airway inflammation, the exact mechanism of airway remodeling remains largely unknown. TRPC1, a member of the transient receptor potential canonical Ca2+ channel family, possesses versatile functions but its role in airway remodeling remains undefined. Here, we show that ablation of TRPC1 in mice alleviates airway remodeling following house dust mite (HDM) challenge with decreases in mucus production, cytokine secretion, and collagen deposition. HDM challenge induces Ca2+ influx via the TRPC1 channel, resulting in increased levels of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and proinflammatory cytokines. In contrast, STAT3 expression was significantly decreased in TRPC1-/- mouse lungs compared with wild-type controls after HDM challenge. Mechanistically, STAT3 promotes epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and increases mucin 5AC expression. Collectively, these findings identify TRPC1 as a modulator of HDM-induced airway remodeling via STAT3-mediated increase in mucus production, which provide new insight in our understanding of the molecular basis of airway remodeling, and identify novel therapeutic targets for intervention of severe chronic asthma.-Pu, Q., Zhao, Y., Sun, Y., Huang, T., Lin, P., Zhou, C., Qin, S., Singh, B.

[PMID: 28089266 PMCID: PMC5466534 DOI: 10.1016/j.ceca.2016.12.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 148] [Impact Index Per Article: 21.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2016] [Revised: 12/29/2016] [Accepted: 12/29/2016] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) is a ubiquitous Ca2+ entry pathway that is activated in response to depletion of ER-Ca2+ stores and critically controls the regulation of physiological functions in miscellaneous cell types. The transient receptor potential canonical 1 (TRPC1) is the first member of the TRPC channel subfamily to be identified as a molecular component of SOCE. While TRPC1 has been shown to contribute to SOCE and regulate various functions in many cells, none of the reported TRPC1-mediated currents resembled ICRAC, the highly Ca2+-selective store-dependent current first identified in lymphocytes and mast cells. Almost a decade after the cloning of TRPC1 two proteins were identified as the primary components of the CRAC channel. The first, STIM1, is an ER-Ca2+ sensor protein involved in activating SOCE. The second, Orai1 is the pore-forming component of the CRAC channel. Co-expression of STIM1 and Orai1 generated robust ICRAC. Importantly, STIM1 was shown to also activate TRPC1 via its C-terminal polybasic domain, which is distinct from its Orai1-activating domain, SOAR. In addition, TRPC1 function critically depends on Orai1-mediated Ca2+ entry which triggers recruitment of TRPC1 into the plasma membrane where it is then activated by STIM1. TRPC1 and Orai1 form discrete STIM1-gated channels that generate distinct Ca2+ signals and regulate specific cellular functions. Surface expression of TRPC1 can be modulated by trafficking of the channel to and from the plasma membrane, resulting in changes to the phenotype of TRPC1-mediated current and [Ca2+]i signals. Thus, TRPC1 is activated downstream of Orai1 and modifies the initial [Ca2+]i signal generated by Orai1 following store depletion. This review will summarize the important findings that underlie the current concepts for activation and regulation of TRPC1, as well as its impact on cell function.

Inhibition of L-Type Ca 2+ Channels by TRPC1-STIM1 Complex Is Essential for the Protection of Dopaminergic Neurons. J Neurosci 2017; 37:3364-3377.

Abstract
Loss of dopaminergic (DA) neurons leads to Parkinson's disease; however, the mechanism(s) for the vulnerability of DA neurons is(are) not fully understood. We demonstrate that TRPC1 regulates the L-type Ca2+ channel that contributes to the rhythmic activity of adult DA neurons in the substantia nigra region. Store depletion that activates TRPC1, via STIM1, inhibits the frequency and amplitude of the rhythmic activity in DA neurons of wild-type, but not in TRPC1-/-, mice. Similarly, TRPC1-/- substantia nigra neurons showed increased L-type Ca2+ currents, decreased stimulation-dependent STIM1-Cav1.3 interaction, and decreased DA neurons. L-type Ca2+ currents and the open channel probability of Cav1.3 channels were also reduced upon TRPC1 activation, whereas increased Cav1.3 currents were observed upon STIM1 or TRPC1 silencing. Increased interaction between Cav1.3-TRPC1-STIM1 was observed upon store depletion and the loss of either TRPC1 or STIM1 led to DA cell death, which was prevented by inhibiting L-type Ca2+ channels. Neurotoxins that mimic Parkinson's disease increased Cav1.3 function, decreased TRPC1 expression, inhibited Tg-mediated STIM1-Cav1.3 interaction, and induced caspase activation. Importantly, restoration of TRPC1 expression not only inhibited Cav1.3 function but increased cell survival. Together, we provide evidence that TRPC1 suppresses Cav1.3 activity by providing an STIM1-based scaffold, which is essential for DA neuron survival.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Ca2+ entry serves critical cellular functions in virtually every cell type, and appropriate regulation of Ca2+ in neurons is essential for proper function. In Parkinson's disease, DA neurons are specifically degenerated, but the mechanism is not known. Unlike other neurons, DA neurons depend on Cav1.3 channels for their rhythmic activity. Our studies show that, in normal conditions, the pacemaking activity in DA neurons is inhibited by the TRPC1-STIM1 complex. Neurotoxins that mimic Parkinson's disease target TRPC1 expression, which leads to an abnormal increase in Cav1.3 activity, thereby causing degeneration of DA neurons. These findings link TRPC1 to Cav1.3 regulation and provide important indications about how disrupting Ca2+ balance could have a direct implication in the treatment of Parkinson's patients.

Abstract
Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE), a unique plasma membrane Ca2+ entry mechanism, is activated when ER-[Ca2+] is decreased. SOCE is mediated via the primary channel, Orai1, as well as others such as TRPC1. STIM1 and STIM2 are ER-Ca2+ sensor proteins that regulate Orai1 and TRPC1. SOCE requires assembly of STIM proteins with the plasma membrane channels which occurs within distinct regions in the cell that have been termed as endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-plasma membrane (PM) junctions. The PM and ER are in close proximity to each other within this region, which allows STIM1 in the ER to interact with and activate either Orai1 or TRPC1 in the plasma membrane. Activation and regulation of SOCE involves dynamic assembly of various components that are involved in mediating Ca2+ entry as well as those that determine the formation and stabilization of the junctions. These components include proteins in the cytosol, ER and PM, as well as lipids in the PM. Recent studies have also suggested that SOCE and its components are compartmentalized within ER-PM junctions and that this process might require remodeling of the plasma membrane lipids and reorganization of structural and scaffolding proteins. Such compartmentalization leads to the generation of spatially- and temporally-controlled Ca2+signals that are critical for regulating many downstream cellular functions.

Abstract
In vitro studies in prostate cancer (PCa) cell lines have suggested a key and complex role of the store-operated channels (SOCs) in major cancer hallmarks, including proliferation, apoptosis, and migration. In the present study, we investigated in vivo the expression of the SOC components transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) 1, TRPC4, Orai1, and stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), during all stages of PCa progression, and evaluated their prognostic impact in clinically localized cancer (CLC). The expressions of TRPC1, TRPC4, Orai1, STIM1, and the androgen receptor and the proliferation marker Ki-67 were evaluated by immunohistochemistry on tissue microarrays containing samples of normal prostate tissues (n=91), prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (n=61), CLC surgically treated (n=238), and castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC; n=45). All markers significantly increased in CLC compared with normal tissues and (for Orai1 and STIM1) in advanced pT3 tumors compared with pT2. In contrast, their expression decreased in CRPC, particularly for Orai1. In CLC, staining for TRPC1, Orai1 and STIM1 correlated with androgen receptor expression, and TRPC1 status was associated with lower proliferation and longer recurrence-free survival, after adjusting for classical prognostic markers. Although increased SOC expression during PCa progression supports a role in cancer cell migration, the inverse association between TRPC1 and biochemical relapse suggests a protective effect in CLC. Moreover, the dramatic down-regulation of Orai1 in CRPC supports its role in apoptosis at this stage of the disease. These results call for caution when considering SOCs as potential therapeutic targets for PCa.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential channel 1 (TRPC1) is a nonselective cation channel that is required for Ca(2+) homeostasis necessary for cellular functions. However, whether TRPC1 is involved in infectious disease remains unknown. Here, we report a novel function for TRPC1 in host defense against Gram-negative bacteria. TRPC1(-/-) mice exhibited decreased survival, severe lung injury, and systemic bacterial dissemination upon infection. Furthermore, silencing of TRPC1 showed decreased Ca(2+) entry, reduced proinflammatory cytokines, and lowered bacterial clearance. Importantly, TRPC1 functioned as an endogenous Ca(2+) entry channel critical for proinflammatory cytokine production in both alveolar macrophages and epithelial cells. We further identified that bacterium-mediated activation of TRPC1 was dependent on Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), which induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) store depletion. After activation of phospholipase Cγ (PLC-γ), TRPC1 mediated Ca(2+) entry and triggered protein kinase Cα (PKCα) activity to facilitate nuclear translocation of NF-κB/Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK) and augment the proinflammatory response, leading to tissue damage and eventually mortality. These findings reveal that TRPC1 is required for host defense against bacterial infections through the TLR4-TRPC1-PKCα signaling circuit.

Abstract
Autophagy is a cellular catabolic process needed for the degradation and recycling of protein aggregates and damaged organelles. Although Ca2+ is suggested to have an important role in cell survival, the ion channel(s) involved in autophagy have not been identified. Here we demonstrate that increase in intracellular Ca2+ via transient receptor potential canonical channel-1 (TRPC1) regulates autophagy, thereby preventing cell death in two morphologically distinct cells lines. The addition of DMOG or DFO, a cell permeable hypoxia-mimetic agents, or serum starvation, induces autophagy in both epithelial and neuronal cells. The induction of autophagy increases Ca2+ entry via the TRPC1 channel, which was inhibited by the addition of 2APB and SKF96365. Importantly, TRPC1-mediated Ca2+ entry resulted in increased expression of autophagic markers that prevented cell death. Furthermore, hypoxia-mediated autophagy also increased TRPC1, but not STIM1 or Orai1, expression. Silencing of TRPC1 or inhibition of autophagy by 3-methyladenine, but not TRPC3, attenuated hypoxia-induced increase in intracellular Ca2+ influx, decreased autophagy, and increased cell death. Furthermore, the primary salivary gland cells isolated from mice exposed to hypoxic conditions also showed increased expression of TRPC1 as well as increase in Ca2+ entry along with increased expression of autophagic markers. Altogether, we provide evidence for the involvement of Ca2+ influx via TRPC1 in regulating autophagy to protect against cell death.

Abstract
Background Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is a disease of the central nervous system (CNS) caused by the cestode Taenia solium. The infection exhibits a long asymptomatic phase, typically lasting 3 to 5 years, before the onset of the symptomatic phase. The severity of the symptoms is thought to be associated with the intensity of the inflammatory response elicited by the degenerating parasite. In contrast, the asymptomatic phase shows an absence of brain inflammation, which is presumably due to immunosuppressive effects of the live parasites. However, the host factors and/or pathways involved in inhibiting inflammation remain largely unknown. Recently, using an animal model of NCC in which mice were intracranially inoculated with a related helminth parasite, Mesocestoides corti, we reported that Toll-like receptor (TLR)-associated signaling contributes to the development of the inflammatory response. As microglia shape the initial innate immune response in the CNS, we hypothesized that the negative regulation of a TLR-induced inflammatory pathway in microglia may be a novel helminth-associated immunosuppressive mechanism in NCC. Methods and results Here we report that helminth soluble factors (HSFs) from Mesocestoides corti inhibited TLR ligation-induced production of inflammatory cytokines in primary microglia. This was correlated with an inhibition of TLR-initiated upregulation of both phosphorylation and acetylation of the nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) p65 subunit, as well as phosphorylation of JNK and ERK1/2. As Ca2+ influx due to store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) has been implicated in induction of downstream signaling, we tested the inhibitory effect of HSFs on agonist-induced Ca2+ influx and specific Ca2+ channel activation. We discovered that HSFs abolished the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)- or thapsigargin (Tg)-induced increase in intracellular Ca2+ accumulation by blocking the ER store release and SOCE. Moreover, electrophysiological recordings demonstrated HSF-mediated inhibition of LPS- or Tg-induced SOCE currents through both TRPC1 and ORAI1 Ca2+ channels on plasma membrane. This was correlated with a decrease in the TRPC1-STIM1 and ORAI1-STIM1 clustering at the plasma membrane that is essential for sustained Ca2+ entry through these channels. Conclusion Inhibition of TRPC1 and ORAI1 Ca2+ channel-mediated activation of NF-κB and MAPK pathways in microglia is likely a novel helminth-induced immunosuppressive mechanism that controls initiation of inflammatory response in the CNS.

Abstract
The endothelium is actively involved in many functions of the cardiovascular system, such as the modulation of arterial pressure and the maintenance of blood flow. These functions require a great versatility of the intracellular Ca2+ signaling that resides in the fact that different signals can be encoded by varying the frequency and the amplitude of the Ca2+ response. Cells use both extracellular and intracellular Ca2+ pools to modulate the intracellular Ca2+ concentration. In non-excitable cells, the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R), located on the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), is responsible for the release of Ca2+ from the intracellular store. The proteins STIM1 and STIM2 are also located on the ER and they are involved in the activation of a store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE). Due to their Ca2+ sensor property and their close proximity with IP3Rs on the ER, STIMs could modulate the activity of IP3R. In this study, we showed that STIM1 and STIM2 are expressed in bovine aortic endothelial cells and they both interact with IP3R. While STIM2 appears to play a minor role, STIM1 plays an important role in the regulation of agonist-induced Ca2+ mobilization in BAECs by a positive effect on both the SOCE and the IP3R-dependent Ca2+ release.

Abstract
Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome induced by infection. T Lymphocytes play an important role in this disease. Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels and calcium-sensing receptors (CaSR) are expressed in lymphocytes to promote intracellular Ca(2+) release. However, data about the link between CaSR and TRP channels in septic T lymphocytes are few. In this study, by Ca(2+) imaging and Western blotting, we found that in septic rat peripheral blood T lymphocytes expressions of TRPC3 and TRPC6 proteins are higher. The SR/ER Ca(2+) ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin (TG) and CaSR agonist NPS R-568 also increased expressions of TRPC3 and TRPC6 proteins, which were reversed by PLC-IP3 channel blocker U73122 and TRPC channels inhibitor SKF96365. By Ca(2+) imaging, we found that the depletion of ER Ca(2+) stores by TG elicited a transient rise in cytoplasmic Ca(2+), followed by sustained increase depending on extracellular Ca(2+). But, SKF96365, not Verapamil (L-type channels inhibitor) and NiCl2 (Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger inhibitor), inhibited the relatively high [Ca(2+)]i. NPS R-568 also resulted in the same effect, and the duration of [Ca(2+)]i increase was eliminated completely by U73122 and was reduced in the absence of [Ca(2+)]o. NPS R-568 and TG increased the apoptotic ratio of septic T lymphocytes, which can be suppressed by SKF96365 and U73122. These results suggested that CaSR activation promoted the expression of TRPC3 and TRPC6 and enhanced T lymphocytes apoptosis through PLC-IP3 signaling pathway in sepsis.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a ubiquitous Ca2+ signaling mechanism triggered by Ca2+ depletion of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and by a variety of cellular stresses. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are often concomitantly produced in response to these stresses, however, the relationship between redox signaling and SOCE is not completely understood. Various cardiovascular, neurological, and immune diseases are associated with alterations in both Ca2+ signaling and ROS production, and thus understanding this relationship has therapeutic implications. RECENT ADVANCES Several reactive cysteine modifications in stromal interaction molecule (STIM) and Orai proteins comprising the core SOCE machinery were recently shown to modulate SOCE in a redox-dependent manner. Moreover, STIM1 and Orai1 expression levels may reciprocally regulate and be affected by responses to oxidative stress. ER proteins involved in oxidative protein folding have gained increased recognition as important sources of ROS, and the recent discovery of their accumulation in contact sites between the ER and mitochondria provides a further link between ROS production and intracellular Ca2+ handling. CRITICAL ISSUES AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS Future research should aim to establish the complete set of SOCE controlling molecules, to determine their redox-sensitive residues, and to understand how intracellular Ca2+ stores dynamically respond to different types of stress. Mapping the precise nature and functional consequence of key redox-sensitive components of the pre- and post-translational control of SOCE machinery and of proteins regulating ER calcium content will be pivotal in advancing our understanding of the complex cross-talk between redox and Ca2+ signaling.

Abstract
Helminth parasites cause persistent infections in humans and yet many infected individuals are asymptomatic. Neurocysticercosis (NCC), a disease of the central nervous system (CNS) caused by the cestode Taenia solium, has a long asymptomatic phase correlated with an absence of brain inflammation. However, the mechanisms of immune suppression remain poorly understood. Here we report that murine NCC displays a lack of cell surface maturation markers in infiltrating myeloid cells. Furthermore, soluble parasite ligands (PL) failed to induce maturation of macrophages, and inhibited TLR-induced inflammatory cytokine production. Importantly, PL treatment abolished both LPS and thapsigargin-induced store operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE). Moreover, electrophysiological recordings demonstrated PL-mediated inhibition of LPS or Tg-induced currents that were TRPC1-dependent. Concomitantly STIM1-TRPC1 complex was also impaired that was essential for SOCE and sustained Ca2+ entry. Likewise loss of SOCE due to PL further inhibited NFkB activation. Overall, our results indicate that the negative regulation of agonist induced Ca2+ signaling pathway by parasite ligands may be a novel immune suppressive mechanism to block the initiation of the inflammatory response associated with helminth infections.

Physiological Function and Characterization of TRPCs in Neurons. Cells 2014; 3:455-75.

Abstract
Ca2+ entry is essential for regulating vital physiological functions in all neuronal cells. Although neurons are engaged in multiple modes of Ca2+ entry that regulates variety of neuronal functions, we will only discuss a subset of specialized Ca2+-permeable non-selective Transient Receptor Potential Canonical (TRPC) channels and summarize their physiological and pathological role in these excitable cells. Depletion of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ stores, due to G-protein coupled receptor activation, has been shown to activate TRPC channels in both excitable and non-excitable cells. While all seven members of TRPC channels are predominately expressed in neuronal cells, the ion channel properties, mode of activation, and their physiological responses are quite distinct. Moreover, many of these TRPC channels have also been suggested to be associated with neuronal development, proliferation and differentiation. In addition, TRPCs also regulate neurosecretion, long-term potentiation and synaptic plasticity. Similarly, perturbations in Ca2+ entry via the TRPC channels have been also suggested in a spectrum of neuropathological conditions. Hence, understanding the precise involvement of TRPCs in neuronal function and in neurodegenerative conditions would presumably unveil avenues for plausible therapeutic interventions for these devastating neuronal diseases.

Abstract
Potassium channels belong to the largest and the most diverse super-families of ion channels. Among them, Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels (KCa) comprise many members. Based on their single channel conductance they are divided into three subfamilies: big conductance (BKCa), intermediate conductance (IKCa) and small conductance (SKCa; SK1, SK2 and SK3). Ca(2+) channels are divided into two main families, voltage gated/voltage dependent Ca(2+) channels and non-voltage gated/voltage independent Ca(2+) channels. Based on their electrophysiological and pharmacological properties and on the tissue where there are expressed, voltage gated Ca(2+) channels (Cav) are divided into 5 families: T-type, L-type, N-type, P/Q-type and R-type Ca(2+). Non-voltage gated Ca(2+) channels comprise the TRP (TRPC, TRPV, TRPM, TRPA, TRPP, TRPML and TRPN) and Orai (Orai1 to Orai3) families and their partners STIM (STIM1 to STIM2). A depolarization is needed to activate voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels while non-voltage gated Ca(2+) channels are activated by Ca(2+) depletion of the endoplasmic reticulum stores (SOCs) or by receptors (ROCs). These two Ca(2+) channel families also control constitutive Ca(2+) entries. For reducing the energy consumption and for the fine regulation of Ca(2+), KCa and Ca(2+) channels appear associated as complexes in excitable and non-excitable cells. Interestingly, there is now evidence that KCa-Ca(2+) channel complexes are also found in cancer cells and contribute to cancer-associated functions such as cell proliferation, cell migration and the capacity to develop metastases.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca²⁺ entry (SOCE) is critical for Ca²⁺ signaling in nonexcitable cells; however, its role in the regulation of cardiomyocyte Ca²⁺ homeostasis has only recently been investigated. The increased understanding of the role of stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) in regulating SOCE combined with recent studies demonstrating the presence of STIM1 in cardiomyocytes provides support that this pathway co-exists in the heart with the more widely recognized Ca²⁺ handling pathways associated with excitation-contraction coupling. There is now substantial evidence that STIM1-mediated SOCE plays a key role in mediating cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, both in vitro and in vivo, and there is growing support for the contribution of SOCE to Ca²⁺ overload associated with ischemia/reperfusion injury. Here, we provide an overview of our current understanding of the molecular regulation of SOCE and discuss the evidence supporting the role of STIM1/Orai1-mediated SOCE in regulating cardiomyocyte function.

Abstract
Planar and apical-basal cellular polarization of epithelia and endothelia are crucial during morphogenesis. The establishment of these distinct polarity states and their transitions are regulated by signaling networks that include polarity complexes, Rho GTPases, and phosphoinositides. The spatiotemporal coordination of signaling by these molecules modulates cytoskeletal remodeling and vesicle trafficking to specify membrane domains, a prerequisite for the organization of tissues and organs. Here we present an overview of how activation of the WASp/Arp2/3 pathway of actin remodeling by Nck coordinates directional cell migration and speculate on its role as a signaling integrator in the coordination of cellular processes involved in endothelial cell polarity and vascular lumen formation.

Endothelial control of vasodilation: integration of myoendothelial microdomain signalling and modulation by epoxyeicosatrienoic acids. Pflugers Arch 2013; 466:389-405.

Abstract
Endothelium-derived epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are fatty acid epoxides that play an important role in the control of vascular tone in selected coronary, renal, carotid, cerebral and skeletal muscle arteries. Vasodilation due to endothelium-dependent smooth muscle hyperpolarization (EDH) has been suggested to involve EETs as a transferable endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor. However, this activity may also be due to EETs interacting with the components of other primary EDH-mediated vasodilator mechanisms. Indeed, the transfer of hyperpolarization initiated in the endothelium to the adjacent smooth muscle via gap junction connexins occurs separately or synergistically with the release of K(+) ions at discrete myoendothelial microdomain signalling sites. The net effects of such activity are smooth muscle hyperpolarization, closure of voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels, phospholipase C deactivation and vasodilation. The spatially localized and key components of the microdomain signalling complex are the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor-mediated endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) store, Ca(2+)-activated K(+) (KCa), transient receptor potential (TRP) and inward-rectifying K(+) channels, gap junctions and the smooth muscle Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase. Of these, TRP channels and connexins are key endothelial effector targets modulated by EETs. In an integrated manner, endogenous EETs enhance extracellular Ca(2+) influx (thereby amplifying and prolonging KCa-mediated endothelial hyperpolarization) and also facilitate the conduction of this hyperpolarization to spatially remote vessel regions. The contribution of EETs and the receptor and channel subtypes involved in EDH-related microdomain signalling, as a candidate for a universal EDH-mediated vasodilator mechanism, vary with vascular bed, species, development and disease and thus represent potentially selective targets for modulating specific artery function.

Abstract
Cerebral vasospasm (CVS) is the most treatable component of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), which can be reduced by endothelin receptor antagonists. Endothelin-evoked vasospasm is considered to be mediated by Ca(2+) influx in the smooth muscle through voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channel (VDCC) and nonselective cation channels (NSCC). Because VDCC antagonists such as nimodipine have been shown to be relatively less effective than the endothelin receptor antagonists, it is assumed that NSCC maybe a more important component in mediating Ca(2+) influx during CVS. In this study, we used the basilar arteries from a "two-hemorrhage" rat model of SAH to investigate expressions of transient receptor potential channel 1 (TRPC1), transient receptor potential channel 3 (TRPC3) and stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), which are considered as the promising candidates constituting NSCC. To investigate the possible role of NSCC in phenotypic switching, we performed immunohistochemical staining to examine expressions of SMα-actin and PCNA, markers of smooth muscle phenotypic switching. We found that the basilar arteries exhibited vasospasm after SAH and that vasospasm became more severe on days 5 and 7 after SAH. Elevated mRNA and protein expressions of TRPC1 and STIM1 were detected after SAH and peaked on days 5 and 7, which was in a parallel time course to the development of cerebral vasospasm. The mRNA and protein expressions of TRPC3 were not changed in the SAH group when compared with those in the control. Results of immunohistochemical staining with anti-PCNA and anti-SMα-actin antibodies also showed enhanced expression of PCNA and disappearance of SMα-actin from day 1 to day 7. Taken together, the above results supported a novel mechanism that the components of store-operated calcium channels, TRPC1 and STIM1 mediated the Ca(2+) influx and phenotypic switching in smooth muscle cells, which promoted the development of vasospasm after SAH. TRPC3, which is a component of receptor-operated calcium channels, was not involved in the above-mentioned mechanism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An association between higher serum calcium (Ca2+) levels and breast cancer has been previously reported. However, little is known regarding the relationship between serum Ca2+ levels and the expression of Ca2+ channels in the presence of breast microcalcifications. METHODS A retrospective analysis of women newly diagnosed with breast microcalcifications was performed based on the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS). The expression of TRPC1, TRPC3, and TRPM7 using normal biopsy without microcalcifications (controls) and infiltrating ductal carcinoma with microcalcifications was evaluated. RESULTS Data on 138 women were analyzed. Seventy percent of women had a BI-RADS score (1-3) corresponding to benign disease. Seventy-six percent of women with a BI-RADS score (4 or 5) were diagnosed with breast cancer, 56% were cancers in situ, and 93% were infiltrating ductal carcinomas. No difference in the distribution of corrected serum Ca2+ levels between BI-RADS scores (1-3) and BI-RADS scores (4-5) (P = 0.82) was observed. Serum Ca2+ levels were similar in women without cancer and women diagnosed with breast cancer (P = 0.94). However, the expression of TRPM7 and TRPC1, but not TRPC3, Ca2+ channels were increased in infiltrating ductal carcinoma samples with microcalcifications when compared with age-matched controls without calcification or cancer. CONCLUSION We observed an increase in the expression of TRPM7 and TRPC1 Ca2+ channels in infiltrating ductal carcinoma samples with microcalcifications, whereas no change in serum Ca2+ levels was observed. Together these data suggest that increased expression of these channels might lead to an increase in intracellular Ca2+ levels thereby restoring serum Ca2+ levels, but these can contribute to the breast microcalcifications. However, future studies exploring the intracellular Ca2+ levels as well as the role of TRPM7 and TRPC1 function according to BI-RADS scores are needed.

Abstract
Neurotransmitter regulation of salivary fluid secretion is mediated by activation of Ca(2+) influx. The Ca(2+)-permeable transient receptor potential canonical 1 (TRPC1) channel is crucial for fluid secretion. However, the mechanism(s) involved in channel assembly and regulation are not completely understood. We report that Caveolin1 (Cav1) is essential for the assembly of functional TRPC1 channels in salivary glands (SG) in vivo and thus regulates fluid secretion. In Cav1(-/-) mouse SG, agonist-stimulated Ca(2+) entry and fluid secretion are significantly reduced. Microdomain localization of TRPC1 and interaction with its regulatory protein, STIM1, are disrupted in Cav1(-/-) SG acinar cells, whereas Orai1-STIM1 interaction is not affected. Furthermore, localization of aquaporin 5 (AQP5), but not that of inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate receptor 3 or Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channel (IK) in the apical region of acinar cell was altered in Cav1(-/-) SG. In addition, agonist-stimulated increase in surface expression of AQP5 required Ca(2+) influx via TRPC1 channels and was inhibited in Cav1(-/-) SG. Importantly, adenovirus-mediated expression of Cav1 in Cav1(-/-) SG restored interaction of STIM1 with TRPC1 and channel activation, apical targeting and regulated trafficking of AQP5, and neurotransmitter stimulated fluid-secretion. Together these findings demonstrate that, by directing cellular localization of TRPC1 and AQP5 channels and by selectively regulating the functional assembly TRPC1-STIM1 channels, Cav1 is a crucial determinant of SG fluid secretion.

Abstract
Members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) cation channel family play important roles in several neuronal functions. To understand the precise role of these channels in information processing, their presence on neuronal elements must be revealed. In this study, we investigated the localization of TRPC6 channels in the adult hippocampal formation. Immunostainings with a specific antibody, which was validated in Trpc6 knockout mice, showed that in the dentate gyrus, TRPC6 channels are strongly expressed in granule cells. Immunogold staining revealing the subcellular localization of TRPC6 channels clarified that these proteins were predominantly present on the membrane surface of the dendritic shafts of dentate granule cells, and also in their axons, often associated with intracellular membrane cisternae. In addition, TRPC6 channels could be observed in the dendrites of some interneurons. Double immunofluorescent staining showed that TRPC6 channels were present in the dendrites of hilar interneurons and hippocampal interneurons with horizontal dendrites in the stratum oriens expressing mGlu1a receptors, whereas parvalbumin immunoreactivity was revealed in TRPC6-expressing dendrites with radial appearance in the stratum radiatum. Electron microscopy showed that the immunogold particles depicting TRPC6 channels were located on the surface membranes of the interneuron dendrites. Our results suggest that TRPC6 channels are in a key position to alter the information entry into the trisynaptic loop of the hippocampal formation from the entorhinal cortex, and to control the function of both feed-forward and feed-back inhibitory circuits in this brain region. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
The heart as a contractile hollow organ finely tunes mechanical parameters such as stroke volume, stroke pressure and cardiac output according to filling volumes, filling pressures via intrinsic and neuronal routes. At the cellular level, cardiomyocytes in beating hearts are exposed to large mechanical stress during successive heart beats. Although the mechanisms of excitation-contraction coupling are well established in mammalian heart cells, the putative contribution of mechanosensitive channels to Ca²⁺ homeostasis, Ca²⁺ signaling and force generation has been primarily investigated in relation to heart disease states. For instance, transient receptor potential channels (TRPs) are up-regulated in animal models of congestive heart failure or hypertension models and seem to play a vital role in pathological Ca²⁺ overload to cardiomyocytes, thus aggravating the pathology of disease at the cellular level. Apart from that, the contribution of mechanosensitive channels (MsC) in the normal beating heart to the downstream force activation cascade has not been addressed. We present an overview of the current literature and concepts of mechanosensitive channel involvement in failing hearts and cardiomyopathies and novel data showing a likely contribution of Ca²⁺ influx via mechanosensitive channels in beating normal cardiomyocytes during systolic shortening.
