Abstract
The Ca2+ ion is a universal second messenger involved in many vital physiological functions including cell migration and development. To fulfil these tasks the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration is tightly controlled, and this involves an intricate functional balance between a variety of channels and pumps of the Ca2+ signalling machinery. Among these proteins, plasma membrane Ca2+ ATPases (PMCAs) represent the major high-affinity Ca2+ extrusion systems in the cell membrane that are effective in maintaining free Ca2+ concentration at exceedingly low cytosolic levels, which is essential for normal cell function. An imbalance in Ca2+ signalling can have pathogenic consequences including cancer and metastasis. Recent studies have highlighted the role of PMCAs in cancer progression and have shown that a particular variant, PMCA4b, is downregulated in certain cancer types, causing delayed attenuation of the Ca2+ signal. It has also been shown that loss of PMCA4b leads to increased migration and metastasis of melanoma and gastric cancer cells. In contrast, an increased PMCA4 expression has been reported in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma that coincided with increased cell migration and shorter patient survival, suggesting distinct roles of PMCA4b in various tumour types and/or different stages of tumour development. The recently discovered interaction of PMCAs with basigin, an extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer, may provide further insights into our understanding of the specific roles of PMCA4b in tumour progression and cancer metastasis.

O’Day DH. The Complex Interplay between Toxic Hallmark Proteins, Calmodulin-Binding Proteins, Ion Channels, and Receptors Involved in Calcium Dyshomeostasis in Neurodegeneration. Biomolecules 2024; 14:173. [PMID: 38397410 PMCID: PMC10886625 DOI: 10.3390/biom14020173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/01/2024] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Calcium dyshomeostasis is an early critical event in neurodegeneration as exemplified by Alzheimer's (AD), Huntington's (HD) and Parkinson's (PD) diseases. Neuronal calcium homeostasis is maintained by a diversity of ion channels, buffers, calcium-binding protein effectors, and intracellular storage in the endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, and lysosomes. The function of these components and compartments is impacted by the toxic hallmark proteins of AD (amyloid beta and Tau), HD (huntingtin) and PD (alpha-synuclein) as well as by interactions with downstream calcium-binding proteins, especially calmodulin. Each of the toxic hallmark proteins (amyloid beta, Tau, huntingtin, and alpha-synuclein) binds to calmodulin. Multiple channels and receptors involved in calcium homeostasis and dysregulation also bind to and are regulated by calmodulin. The primary goal of this review is to show the complexity of these interactions and how they can impact research and the search for therapies. A secondary goal is to suggest that therapeutic targets downstream from calcium dyshomeostasis may offer greater opportunities for success.

Abstract
Ca2+ plays a crucial role in cell signaling, cytosolic Ca2+ can change up to 10,000-fold in concentration due to the action of Ca2+-ATPases, including PMCA, SERCA and SCR. The regulation and balance of these enzymes are essential to maintain cytosolic Ca2+ homeostasis. Our laboratory has discovered a novel PMCA regulatory system, involving acetylated tubulin alone or in combination with membrane lipids. This regulation controls cytosolic Ca2+ levels and influences cellular properties such as erythrocyte rheology. This review summarizes the findings on the regulatory mechanism of PMCA activity by acetylated tubulin in combination with lipids. The combination of tubulin cytoskeleton and membrane lipids suggests a novel regulatory system for PMCA, which consequently affects cytosolic Ca2+ content, depending on cytoskeletal and plasma membrane dynamics. Understanding the interaction between acetylated tubulin, lipids and PMCA activity provides new insights into Ca2+ signaling and cell function. Further research may shed light on potential therapeutic targets for diseases related to Ca2+ dysregulation. This discovery contributes to a broader understanding of cellular processes and offers opportunities to develop innovative approaches to treat Ca2+-related disorders. By elucidating the complex regulatory mechanisms of Ca2+ homeostasis, we advance our understanding of cell biology and its implications for human health.

Abstract
PURPOSE ATP2B2 encodes the variant-constrained plasma-membrane calcium-transporting ATPase-2, expressed in sensory ear cells and specialized neurons. ATP2B2/Atp2b2 variants were previously linked to isolated hearing loss in patients and neurodevelopmental deficits with ataxia in mice. We aimed to establish the association between ATP2B2 and human neurological disorders. METHODS Multinational case recruitment, scrutiny of trio-based genomics data, in silico analyses, and functional variant characterization were performed. RESULTS We assembled 7 individuals harboring rare, predicted deleterious heterozygous ATP2B2 variants. The alleles comprised 5 missense substitutions that affected evolutionarily conserved sites and 2 frameshift variants in the penultimate exon. For 6 variants, a de novo status was confirmed. Unlike described patients with hearing loss, the individuals displayed a spectrum of neurological abnormalities, ranging from ataxia with dystonic features to complex neurodevelopmental manifestations with intellectual disability, autism, and seizures. Two cases with recurrent amino-acid variation showed distinctive overlap with cerebellar atrophy-associated ataxia and epilepsy. In cell-based studies, all variants caused significant alterations in cytosolic calcium handling with both loss- and gain-of-function effects. CONCLUSION Presentations in our series recapitulate key phenotypic aspects of Atp2b2-mouse models and underline the importance of precise calcium regulation for neurodevelopment and cerebellar function. Our study documents a role for ATP2B2 variants in causing heterogeneous neurodevelopmental and movement-disorder syndromes.

Abstract
Calcium is a highly positively charged ionic species. It regulates all cell types' functions and is an important second messenger that controls and triggers several mechanisms, including membrane stabilization, permeability, contraction, secretion, mitosis, intercellular communications, and in the activation of kinases and gene expression. Therefore, controlling calcium transport and its intracellular homeostasis in physiology leads to the healthy functioning of the biological system. However, abnormal extracellular and intracellular calcium homeostasis leads to cardiovascular, skeletal, immune, secretory diseases, and cancer. Therefore, the pharmacological control of calcium influx directly via calcium channels and exchangers and its outflow via calcium pumps and uptake by the ER/SR are crucial in treating calcium transport remodeling in pathology. Here, we mainly focused on selective calcium transporters and blockers in the cardiovascular system.

Hypomagnetic Fields and Their Multilevel Effects on Living Organisms. Processes (Basel) 2023.

Abstract
The Earth’s magnetic field is one of the basic abiotic factors in all environments, and organisms had to adapt to it during evolution. On some occasions, organisms can be confronted with a significant reduction in a magnetic field, termed a “hypomagnetic field—HMF”, for example, in buildings with steel reinforcement or during interplanetary flight. However, the effects of HMFs on living organisms are still largely unclear. Experimental studies have mostly focused on the human and rodent models. Due to the small number of publications, the effects of HMFs are mostly random, although we detected some similarities. Likely, HMFs can modify cell signalling by affecting the contents of ions (e.g., calcium) or the ROS level, which participate in cell signal transduction. Additionally, HMFs have different effects on the growth or functions of organ systems in different organisms, but negative effects on embryonal development have been shown. Embryonal development is strictly regulated to avoid developmental abnormalities, which have often been observed when exposed to a HMF. Only a few studies have addressed the effects of HMFs on the survival of microorganisms. Studying the magnetoreception of microorganisms could be useful to understand the physical aspects of the magnetoreception of the HMF.

Abstract
The strength of Ca2+ signaling is a hallmark of T cell activation, yet the role of Ca2+ homeostasis in developing T cells before expressing a mature T cell receptor is poorly understood. We aimed to unveil specific functions of the two plasma membrane Ca2+ ATPases expressed in T cells, PMCA1 and PMCA4. On a transcriptional and protein level we found that PMCA4 was expressed at low levels in CD4-CD8- double negative (DN) thymocytes and was even downregulated in subsequent stages while PMCA1 was present throughout development and upregulated in CD4+CD8+ double positive (DP) thymocytes. Mice with a targeted deletion of Pmca1 in DN3 thymocytes had an almost complete block of DP thymocyte development with an accumulation of DN4 thymocytes but severely reduced numbers of CD8+ immature single positive (ISP) thymocytes. The DN4 thymocytes of these mice showed strongly elevated basal cytosolic Ca2+ levels and a pre-mature CD5 expression, but in contrast to the DP thymocytes they were only mildly prone to apoptosis. Surprisingly, mice with a germline deletion of Pmca4 did not show any signs of altered progression through the developmental thymocyte stages, nor altered Ca2+ homeostasis throughout this process. PMCA1 is, therefore, non-redundant in keeping cellular Ca2+ levels low in the early thymocyte development required for the DN to DP transition.

Abstract
Potassium-dependent sodium-calcium exchangers (NCKX) have emerged as key determinants of calcium (Ca2+) signaling and homeostasis, especially in environments where ion concentrations undergo large changes, such as excitatory cells and transport epithelia. The regulation of NCKX transporters enables them to respond to the changing cellular environment thereby helping to shape the extent and kinetics of Ca2+ signals. This review examines the current knowledge of the different ways in which NCKX activity can be modulated. These include (i) cellular and dynamic subcellular location (ii); changes in protein expression mediated at the gene, transcript, or protein level (iii); genetic changes resulting in altered protein structure or expression (iv); regulation via changes in substrate concentration (v); and post-translational modification, partner protein interactions, and allosteric regulation. Detailed mechanistic understanding of NCKX regulation is an emerging area of research with the potential to provide important new insights into transporter function, the control of Ca2+ signals, and possible interventions for dysregulated Ca2+ homeostasis.

Abstract
The plasma membrane and autoinhibited Ca2+-ATPases contribute to the Ca2+ homeostasis in a wide variety of organisms. The enzymatic activity of these pumps is stimulated by calmodulin, which interacts with the target protein through the calmodulin-binding domain (CaMBD). Most information about this region is related to all calmodulin modulated proteins, which indicates general chemical properties and there is no established relation between Ca2+ pump sequences and taxonomic classification. Thus, the aim of this study was to perform an in silico analysis of the CaMBD from several Ca2+-ATPases, in order to determine their diversity and to detect specific patterns and amino acid selection in different species. Patterns related to potential and confirmed CaMBD were detected using sequences retrieved from the literature. The occurrence of these patterns was determined across 120 sequences from 17 taxonomical classes, which were analyzed by a phylogenetic tree to establish phylogenetic groups. Predicted physicochemical characteristics including hydropathy and net charge were calculated for each group of sequences. 22 Ca2+-ATPases sequences from animals, unicellular eukaryotes, and plants were retrieved from bioinformatic databases. These sequences allow us to establish the Patterns 1(GQILWVRGLTRLQTQ), 3(KNPSLEALQRW), and 4(SRWRRLQAEHVKK), which are present at the beginning of putative CaMBD of metazoan, parasites, and land plants. A pattern 2 (IRVVNAFR) was consistently found at the end of most analyzed sequences. The amino acid preference in the CaMBDs changed depending on the phylogenetic groups, with predominance of several aliphatic and charged residues, to confer amphiphilic properties. The results here displayed show a conserved mechanism to contribute to the Ca2+ homeostasis across evolution and may help to detect putative CaMBDs.

The plasma membrane calcium ATPase (PMCA) extrudes calcium from the cytosol to the extracellular space to terminate calcium-dependent signaling. Although the distribution of PMCA is crucial for its function, the molecular mechanisms that regulate the localization of PMCA isoforms are not well understood. PLEKHA7 is implicated by genetic studies in hypertension and the regulation of calcium handling. PLEKHA7 recruits the small adapter protein PDZD11 to adherens junctions, and together they control the trafficking and localization of plasma membrane associated proteins, including the Menkes copper ATPase. Since PDZD11 binds to the C-terminal domain of b-isoforms of PMCA, PDZD11 and its interactor PLEKHA7 could control the localization and activity of PMCA. Here, we test this hypothesis using cultured cell model systems. We show using immunofluorescence microscopy and a surface biotinylation assay that KO of either PLEKHA7 or PDZD11 in mouse kidney collecting duct epithelial cells results in increased accumulation of endogenous PMCA at lateral cell–cell contacts and PDZ-dependent ectopic apical localization of exogenous PMCA4x/b isoform. In HeLa cells, coexpression of PDZD11 reduces membrane accumulation of overexpressed PMCA4x/b, and analysis of cytosolic calcium transients shows that PDZD11 counteracts calcium extrusion activity of overexpressed PMCA4x/b, but not PMCA4x/a, which lacks the PDZ-binding motif. Moreover, KO of PDZD11 in either endothelial (bEnd.3) or epithelial (mouse kidney collecting duct) cells increases the rate of calcium extrusion. Collectively, these results suggest that the PLEKHA7–PDZD11 complex modulates calcium homeostasis by regulating the localization of PMCA.
