Abstract
AIMS Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) increases intracellular Ca2+ concentrations, resulting in insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells through the sequential production of Ca2+ mobilizing messengers nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) and cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR). We previously found that NAADP activates the neuronal type of nitric oxide (NO) synthase (nNOS), the product of which, NO, activates guanylyl cyclase to produce cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), which, in turn, induces cADPR formation. Our aim was to explore the relationship between Ca2+ signals and gasotransmitters formation in insulin secretion in β-cells upon GLP-1 stimulation. RESULTS We show that NAADP-induced cGMP production by nNOS activation is dependent on carbon monoxide (CO) formation by heme oxygenase-2 (HO-2). Treatment with exogenous NO and CO amplifies cGMP formation, Ca2+ signal strength, and insulin secretion, whereas this signal is impeded when exposed to combined treatment with NO and CO. Furthermore, CO potentiates cGMP formation in a dose-dependent manner, but higher doses of CO inhibited cGMP formation. Our data with regard to zinc protoporphyrin, a HO inhibitor, and HO-2 knockdown, revealed that NO-induced cADPR formation and insulin secretion are dependent on HO-2. Consistent with this observation, the administration of NO or CO donors to type 2 diabetic mice improved glucose tolerance, but the same did not hold true when both were administered concurrently. INNOVATION Our research reveals the role of two gas transmitters, CO and NO, for Ca2+ second messengers formation in pancreatic β-cells. CONCLUSION These results demonstrate that CO, the downstream regulator of NO, plays a role in bridging the gap between the Ca2+ signaling messengers during insulin secretion in pancreatic β-cells.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS) play an important role in signal transduction and cell injury processes. Nitric oxide synthase (NOS)-the key enzyme producing nitric oxide (NO)-is found in neuronal structures, vascular endothelium and, possibly, in acinar and ductal epithelial cells in the pancreas. NO is known to regulate cell homeostasis, and its effects on the acinar cells are reviewed here. ROS are implicated in the early events within the acinar cells, leading to the development of acute pancreatitis. The available data on ROS/RNS involvement in the apoptotic and necrotic death of pancreatic acinar cells will be discussed.

Abstract
In guinea pig antral mucous cells, ACh stimulates the Ca(2+)-regulated exocytosis, which has a characteristics feature: an initial transient phase followed by a sustained phase. The effects of cGMP on ACh-stimulated exocytosis were studied in guinea pig antral mucous cells using video microscopy. cGMP enhanced the frequency of ACh-stimulated exocytotic events, whereas cGMP alone did not induce any exocytotic events under the ACh-unstimulated condition. cGMP did not stimulate either Ca(2+) mobilization or cAMP accumulation. The Ca(2+) dose-response studies demonstrated that cGMP shifted the dose-response curve upward with no shift to the lower concentration. This indicates that cGMP increased maximal responsiveness of the Ca(2+)-regulated exocytosis, but not the Ca(2+) sensitivity. Moreover, under a condition of ATP depletion by dinitrophenol (DNP) or anoxia (N(2) bubbling), ACh evoked only a sustained phase in exocytotic events with no initial transient phase. However, ACh evoked an initial transient phase followed by a sustained phase with addition of cGMP before ATP depletion, whereas only a sustained phase was evoked in a case of cGMP addition after ATP depletion. Thus cGMP-induced enhancement in ACh-stimulated exocytotic events requires ATP, suggesting that cGMP modulates ATP-dependent priming of Ca(2+)-regulated exocytosis in antral mucous cells. In conclusion, cGMP increases the number of primed granules via acceleration of the ATP-dependent priming, which enhances the Ca(2+)-regulated exocytosis stimulated by ACh.

Abstract
1. Nitric oxide (NO) is a key modulator of cellular Ca(2+) signalling and a determinant of mitochondrial function. Here, we demonstrate that NO governs capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE) into HEK293 cells by impairment of mitochondrial Ca(2+) handling. 2. Authentic NO as well as the NO donors 1-[2-(carboxylato)pyrrolidin-1-yl]diazem-1-ium-1,2-diolate (ProliNO) and 2-(N,N-diethylamino)-diazenolate-2-oxide (DEANO) suppressed CCE activated by thapsigargin (TG)-induced store depletion. Threshold concentrations for inhibition of CCE by ProliNO and DEANO were 0.3 and 1 micro M, respectively. 3. NO-induced inhibition of CCE was not mimicked by peroxynitrite (100 micro M), the peroxynitrite donor 3-morpholino-sydnonimine (SIN-1, 100 micro M) or 8-bromoguanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-BrcGMP, 1 mM). In addition, the guanylyl cyclase inhibitor 1H-[1,2,4] oxadiazole[4,3-a] quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ, 30 micro M) failed to antagonize the inhibitory action of NO on CCE. 4. DEANO (1-10 micro M) suppressed mitochondrial respiration as evident from inhibition of cellular oxygen consumption. Experiments using fluorescent dyes to monitor mitochondrial membrane potential and mitochondrial Ca(2+) levels, respectively, indicated that DEANO (10 micro M) depolarized mitochondria and suppressed mitochondrial Ca(2+) sequestration. The inhibitory effect of DEANO on Ca(2+) uptake into mitochondria was confirmed by recording mitochondrial Ca(2+) during agonist stimulation in HEK293 cells expressing ratiometric-pericam in mitochondria. 5. DEANO (10 micro M) failed to inhibit Ba(2+) entry into TG-stimulated cells when extracellular Ca(2+) was buffered below 1 micro M, while clear inhibition of Ba(2+) entry into store depleted cells was observed when extracellular Ca(2+) levels were above 10 micro M. Moreover, buffering of intracellular Ca(2+) by use of N,N'-[1,2-ethanediylbis(oxy-2,1-phenylene)] bis [N-[25-[(acetyloxy) methoxy]-2-oxoethyl]]-, bis[(acetyloxy)methyl] ester (BAPTA/AM) eliminated inhibition of CCE by NO, indicating that the observed inhibitory effects are based on an intracellular, Ca(2+) dependent-regulatory process. 6. Our data demonstrate that NO effectively inhibits CCE cells by cGMP-independent suppression of mitochondrial function. We suggest disruption of local Ca(2+) handling by mitochondria as a key mechanism of NO induced suppression of CCE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic production and in vivo effects of nitric oxide (NO) have been shown by several studies. In order to examine the direct actions of the NO donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP), this study used in vitro specimens of the rat pancreas where the distribution of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and the secretory effects of SNP and the cyclic GMP (cGMP) analog 8-bromo cyclic GMP (8-Br cGMP) were investigated. METHODS NO containing pancreatic nerves were visualized by NOS immunohistochemistry. Basal and stimulated amylase output from rat pancreatic segments was measured by an on-line fluorimetric method. Stimulation was achieved by either acetylcholine (ACh) or electrical field stimulation (EFS). Intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) was measured in dispersed pancreatic acinar cells. RESULTS NOS containing nerves were demonstrated in the vicinity of pancreatic acini and blood vessels. SNP and 8-Br cGMP inhibited both basal and EFS evoked amylase output but failed to inhibit ACh induced amylase output. Basal [Ca2+]i was decreased by both SNP and 8-Br cGMP but neither SNP nor 8-Br cGMP influenced the ACh evoked increase in [Ca2+]i. CONCLUSION NO is well distributed in the rat exocrine pancreas. Exogenous nitric oxide may have a dual action in the isolated rat pancreas: Inhibition of basal amylase secretion in acinar cells and inhibition of ACh release from intrinsic nerve terminals. Both effects seem to be calcium dependent and possibly mediated by cGMP.

Abstract
AIM This investigation was to reveal the characteristics and mechanism of enzyme secretion and increase in [Ca2+]i stimulated by saikosaponin(I) (SA(I)) in rat pancreatic acini. METHODS Pancreatic acini were prepared from male Wistar rats. Isolated acinar cells were suspended in Eagle's MEM solution. After adding drugs, the incubation was performed at 37 degrees for a set period of time. Amylase of supernatant was assayed using starch-iodide reaction. Isolated acinar single cell was incubated with Fura-2/AM at 37 degrees, then cells were washed and resuspended in fresh solution and attached to the chamber. Cytoplasm [Ca2+]i of a single cell was expressed by fluorescence ratio F340/F380 recorded in a Nikon PI Ca2+ measurement system. RESULTS Rate course of amylase secretion stimulated by SA(I) in rat pancreatic acini appeared in bell-like shape. The peak amplitude increased depended on SA(I) concentration. The maximum rate responded to 1 x 10(-5)mol/L SA(I) was 13.1-fold of basal and the rate decreased to basal level at 30 min. CCK-8 receptor antagonist Bt(2)-cGMP markedly inhibited amylase secretion stimulated by SA(I) and the dose-effect relationship was similar to that by CCK-8. [Ca2+]i in a single acinar cell rose to the peak at 5 min after adding 5 x 10(-6)mol/L SA(I) and was 5.1-fold of basal level. In addition, there was a secondary increase after the initial peak. GDP could inhibit both the rate of amylase secretion and rising of [Ca2+]i stimulated by SA(I) in a single pancreatic acinar cell. CONCLUSION SA(I) is highly efficient in promoting the secretion of enzymes synthesized in rat pancreatic acini and raising intracellular [Ca2+]i. Signaling transduction pathway of SA(I) involves activating special membrane receptor and increase in cytoplasm [Ca2+]i sequentially.

Abstract
In vascular endothelial cells, elevation of cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) causes activation of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and release of nitric oxide (NO). The goal of the study was to characterize the interplay between [Ca2+]i and NO production in this cell type. Simultaneous measurements of [Ca2+]i and intracellular NO concentration ([NO]i) in cultured bovine vascular endothelial cells (CPAE cell line) with the fluorescent indicators fura-2 and DAF-2, respectively, revealed that Ca2+ influx following agonist-induced intracellular Ca2+ store depletion (capacitative Ca2+ entry, CCE) represents the preferential Ca2+ source for the activation of the Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent endothelial NOS (eNOS). Exposure to the NO donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP) showed that high NO levels suppressed CCE and had an inhibitory effect on Ca2+ extrusion by the plasmalemmal Ca2+-ATPase. This inhibitory effect on CCE was mimicked by the membrane-permeant cGMP analogue 8-bromo-cGMP, but was reversed by the NO scavenger haemoglobin and prevented by the inhibitor of the NO-sensitive guanylate cyclase ODQ. Brief exposure to SNP reduced the peak of ATP-induced Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and accelerated Ca2+ reuptake into the ER. Prolonged incubation with SNP resulted in enhanced Ca2+ loading of the ER, as revealed by direct measurements of store content with the ER-entrapped low-affinity Ca2+ indicator mag-fura-2. The results suggest that in vascular endothelial cells, NO synthesis is under autoregulatory control that involves NO-dependent [Ca2+]i regulation. Via cGMP-dependent inhibition of CCE and acceleration of Ca2+ sequestration into the ER, NO can lower [Ca2+]i and therefore exert an autoregulatory negative feedback on its own Ca2+-dependent synthesis.

Abstract
The distribution of nitric oxide synthase in both neuronal and non-neuronal pancreatic tissues and the role of nitric oxide in the control of exocrine pancreatic secretion are reviewed in this article. Earlier reports based on in vivo studies suggested that nitric oxide can affect the secretory activity of the exocrine pancreas through changes in pancreatic blood flow. More recently, the employment of either nitric oxide synthase inhibitors or nitric oxide donors in in vitro preparations has provided evidence that nitric oxide can exert a direct action on this gland independently on its vascular effects. Most research in this area seems to indicate that modulation of exocrine pancreatic function by nitric oxide is exerted via activation of guanylate cyclase and generation of cGMP, although other pathways cannot be excluded. Experiments performed over the last year in our laboratory reveal a novel and interesting mechanism based on the ability of nitric oxide to control the release of endogenous neurotransmitter in the pancreas and, subsequently, the nerve-mediated enzyme secretion.

Abstract
In this study, we show that particulate guanylate cyclase (GC) is present in rat pancreatic acinar cells and is located both on plasma membrane and membranes of endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Western blot analysis indicates that the enzyme isoform GC-A is present in the acinar cell membranes. The specific inhibitors of ER Ca(2+)-ATPase thapsigargin, 2,5-di-(t-butyl)-1,4-hydroquinone (BHQ), and cyclopiazonic acid all activated particulate GC in pancreatic acini, both in membrane fractions and intact cells. These inhibitors also induced dephosphorylation of GC. Dose dependencies of Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibition and GC activation by BHQ are very similar, and those for thapsigargin partially overlap. ER Ca(2+)-ATPase and GC are coimmunoprecipitated both by antisera against membrane GC and by antisera against ER Ca(2+)-ATPase, suggesting a physical association between the two enzymes. The results suggest that thapsigargin and the other inhibitors act through ER Ca(2+)-ATPase to activate membrane GC in pancreatic acinar cells, although their direct effect on GC cannot be excluded.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) as a unique biological mediator that has been implicated in many physiological and pathophysiological processes may have a significant influence on the course of acute pancreatitis and the recovery process. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of a NO synthase inhibitor or a substrate for NO endogenous production on the ultrastructural features of the acinar cells in the course of caerulein-induced acute pancreatitis. Acute pancreatitis was induced in the rats by a supramaximal dose of caerulein. During acute pancreatitis induction, the rats were treated with L-arginine (the substrate for NO synthesis), NG-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA, NO synthase inhibitor), L-arginine + L-NNA or saline. Light and electron microscopy examinations were performed in all groups after pancreatitis induction and additionally after 7 and 14 days of recovery. The study demonstrated that the NO synthase inhibitor given during pancreatitis induction in rats enhances the damage to the acinar cells, detected ultrastructurally, and increases the cellular inflammatory infiltration. In the later period, the considerable damage to the mitochondria and the changes in secretory compartment were observed, including dilated cisternae of Golgi apparatus, focal degranulation of rough endoplasmic reticulum, and reduced number of zymogen granules and condensing vacuoles. L-arginine reversed to some extent the deleterious effect of L-NNA, although when administered alone it had no apparent effect on the ultrastructure of pancreatic acinar cells compared with untreated animals. The obtained results indicate that the NO synthase inhibitor enhances the ultrastructural degenerative alterations in the pancreatic acinar cells in the course of caerulein-induced acute pancreatitis and confirm the protective role of endogenous nitric oxide in this disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Margination of circulating neutrophils (PMN) into the gastric microcirculation is an early and critical event in the pathogenesis of non-steroidal antinflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced gastropathy. This effect is mediated through the upregulation of beta 2 integrins on the PMN surface. AIMS To investigate whether indomethacin modulates: (1) Mac-1 expression; (2) Ca2+ mobilization ([Ca2+]i), protein kinase C and nitric oxide accumulation; and (3) mitogen-associated protein kinase phosphorylation in human PMN. METHODS Human PMN were isolated by centrifugation through a double Ficoll gradient. [Ca2+]i was measured in PMN loaded with fura-2 and Mac-1 expression by flow cytometry. RESULTS Indomethacin caused a concentration- and time-dependent upregulation of CD11b and CD18 expression and PMN adhesion to endothelial cells. Maximal upregulation of Mac-1 expression (40-50%) occurred after a 30-min incubation with 0.1mM indomethacin. The effect was prevented by removing the Ca2+. Ionomycin and thapsigargin caused a 7-10-fold increase in [Ca2+]i and a 2-4-fold increase in Mac-1 expression. Indomethacin induced a concentration-dependent phosphorylation of a 41-kDa mitogen-associated protein kinase. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors prevented the effect of indomethacin on Mac-1 expression and Ca2+ mobilization. Indomethacin and ionomycin increased superoxide generation, myeloperoxidase secretion and PMN adherence to endothelial cells and stimulated nitric oxide production. Indomethacin-induced Mac-1 upregulation was prevented by a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor. CONCLUSIONS Indomethacin-induced upregulation of Mac-1 is mediated by changes in [Ca2+]i and nitric oxide. Phosphorylation of the 41-kDa mitogen-associated protein isoform is a previously unreported target of NSAID action. These effects might help to explain the ability of indomethacin to cause gastric neutrophil margination.

Abstract
During the last 2 years, our laboratory has worked on the elucidation of the molecular basis of capacitative calcium entry (CCE) into cells. Specifically, we tested the hypothesis that CCE channels are formed of subunits encoded in genes related to the Drosophila trp gene. The first step in this pursuit was to search for mammalian trp genes. We found not one but six mammalian genes and cloned several of their cDNAs, some in their full length. As assayed in mammalian cells, overexpression of some mammalian Trps increases CCE, while expression of partial trp cDNAs in antisense orientation can interfere with endogenous CCE. These findings provided a firm connection between CCE and mammalian Trps. This article reviews the known forms of CCE and highlights unanswered questions in our understanding of intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis and the physiological roles of CCE.

Abstract
The stimulation of the pancreatic acinar cells by physiological secretagogues, such as acetycholine (ACh), activates a well-established intracellular signalling pathway, which involves the generation of Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) and the release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. Caffeine, which inhibits this agonist-evoked Ca2+ response reversibly and competitively also blocks the Ca2+ signal generated by the non-specific activation of the membrane guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G-proteins). Removal of caffeine is associated with an increase of intracellular [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i) and the spatial and temporal characteristics of this Ca2+ signal are identical to those of the signal generated by the initial agonist stimulation. Caffeine is also a potent non-specific inhibitor of various cellular phosphodiesterases (PDE) and its inhibitory effect can be reproduced by other PDE inhibitors, chemically related (theophylline) or not (papaverine). Various protocols designed to increase the concentration of either of the major intracellular cyclic nucleotides [adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) and guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP)] failed to reproduce the full extent of the caffeine inhibition: at maximal agonist concentration (1 microM ACh) increases of either cAMP or cGMP did not affect the Ca2+ signal, whereas at submaximal doses of agonist (0.1-0.3 microM ACh) they induced partial inhibition. Here we show that only the simultaneous increase of the cellular concentrations of both cyclic nucleotides (either simultaneous or sequential) are effective in mimicking the blocking effect of caffeine and other non-specific PDE inhibitors. These data indicate, thus, that, in addition to other independent intracellular effects, cAMP and cGMP can exert a co-ordinated inhibitory effect of the agonist-evoked Ca2+ signal in pancreatic acinar cells.

Abstract
We have investigated the possible roles of cyclic GMP (cGMP) in initiating or regulating capacitiative Ca2+ entry in rat pancreatic acinar cells. In medium containing 1.8 mM external Ca2+, thapsigargin activated Ca2+ entry and slightly but significantly increased intracellular cGMP concentration. This rise in cGMP levels was prevented by pretreating the cells with the guanylate cyclase inhibitor, LY-83583, or by omitting Ca2+ during stimulation by thapsigargin or methacholine. LY-83583 and NG-nitro-L-arginine (L-NA, an inhibitor of NO synthase) both had a small inhibitory effect on Ca2+ entry when they were added after thapsigargin in Ca2(+)-containing medium, and they reduced by 32 and 48% respectively the thapsigargin-induced capacitative Ca2+ entry when added to the cells during a 20 min preincubation period. However, neither dibutyryl cGMP (Bt2cGMP) nor sodium nitroprusside, an NO mimic, affected either basal intracellular Ca2+ concentration [Ca2+]i or thapsigargin-induced capacitative Ca2+ entry. Further, the inhibitory effects observed after preincubation with LY-83583 or L-NA could not be prevented by preincubation with Bt2cGMP, nor could they be reversed by adding Bt2cGMP, 8-bromo-cGMP or sodium nitroprusside acutely after activation of capacitative Ca2+ entry by thapsigargin. Finally, pretreatment of cells with LY-83583 or L-NA did not affect Ca2+ signalling in response to 1 microM methacholine, including the pattern of [Ca2+]i oscillations. In conclusion, in pancreatic acinar cells, the rise in cellular cGMP levels appears to depend on, rather than cause, the increase in [Ca2+]i with agonist stimulation.
