The effect of the antianginal drug bepridil on Ca(2+) signaling in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells was investigated by using fura-2 as a Ca(2+) probe. Bepridil at 10-50 microM evoked a significant rise in cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in a dose-dependent manner. The [Ca(2+)](i) rise consisted of an immediate initial rise and a slow decay. Removal of external Ca(2+) partly inhibited the Ca(2+) signals by reducing both the initial rise and the decay phase, suggesting that bepridil activated both external Ca(2+) influx and internal Ca(2+) release. In Ca(2+)-free medium, pretreatment with 50 microM bepridil nearly abolished the Ca(2+) release induced by thapsigargin (1 microM), an endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pump inhibitor, and vice versa, pretreatment with thapsigargin inhibited most of the bepridil-induced Ca(2+) release, suggesting that the thapsigargin-sensitive Ca(2+) store was the main source of bepridil-induced Ca(2+) release. Bepridil (50 microM) induced considerable Mn(2+) quench of fura-2 fluorescence at an excitation wavelength of 360 nm, which was partly inhibited by La(3+) (0.1 mM). Consistently, La(3+) (0.1 mM) pretreatment significantly inhibited the bepridil-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rise. Addition of 3 mM Ca(2+) induced a significant [Ca(2+)](i) rise after prior incubation with 10-50 microM bepridil in Ca(2+)-free medium, suggesting that bepridil induced dose-dependent capacitative Ca(2+) entry. However, 50 microM bepridil inhibited 1 microM thapsigargin-induced capacitative Ca(2+) entry by 38%. Pretreatment with aristolochic acid (40 microM) so as to inhibit phospholipase A(2) inhibited 50 microM bepridil-induced internal Ca(2+) release by 42%, but inhibition of phospholipase C with U73122 (2 microM) or inhibition of phospholipase D with propranolol (0.1 mM) had little effect, suggesting that bepridil induced internal Ca(2+) release in an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-independent manner that could be modulated by phospholipase A(2)-coupled events. This is the first report providing evidence that bepridil, currently used as an antianginal drug, induced a rise in [Ca(2+)](i) in a non-excitable cell line. 相似文献

The effect of 5,8,11-eicosatriynoic acid, a widely used lipoxygenase inhibitor, on Ca2+ fate in Madin Darby canine kidney cells was examined by using fura-2 as a Ca2+ probe. At concentrations between 2-100 microM 5,8,11-eicosatriynoic acid increased [Ca2+]i concentration-dependently with an EC50 of 20 microM . Extracellular Ca2+ removal decreased the Ca2+ signals, indicating that 5,8,11-eicosatriynoic acid triggered Ca2+ release and Ca2+ influx. 5,8,11 -Eicosatriynoic acid (30 microM) induced a [Ca2+]i increase in Ca2+-free medium after pretreatment with carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (2 microM), a mitochondrial uncoupler, and thapsigargin (1 microM), an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor for 20 min. Conversely, 5,8,11-eicosatriynoic acid pretreatment almost abolished the Ca2+ release induced by carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone and thapsigargin. These results suggest that 30 microM 5,8,11-eicosatriynoic acid released Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria and other stores. Addition of 3 mM Ca2+ increased [Ca2+]i after preincubation with 2-50 microM 5,8,11-eicosatriynoic acid for 10 min. in Ca2+-free medium concentration-dependently. Pretreatment with 10 microM La3+ abolished 30 microM 5,8,11-eicosatriynoic acid -induced [Ca2+]i increases, but adding La3+ during the decay phase had no effect. 5,8,11-Eicosatriynoic acid-induced Ca2+ release was not altered by inhibiting phospholipase C with 2 microM 1-(6-((17beta-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-yl)amino)hexyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (U73122), but was decreased by 60% by 40 microM aristolochic acid. Several other lipoxygenase inhibitors such as baicalein (50 microM), 5.8.11.14-eicosatetraynoic acid (ETYA; 0.1-0.2 mM), caffeic acid (5-50 microM), esculetin (5-50 microM), alpha-pentyl-3-(2-quinolinylmethoxy)-benzenemethanol (REV-5901; 0.1-0.2 mM) and alpha-pentyl-4-(2-quinolinylmethoxy)-benzenemethanol (L-655238; 80-100 microM) had no effect on [Ca2+]i. Collectively, the data suggest that the lipoxygenase inhibitor 5,8,11-eicosatriynoic acid induced a [Ca2+]i increase in renal tubular cells concentration-dependently, by releasing intracellular Ca2+ from multiple stores in an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-independent manner, and by inducing extracellular Ca2+ influx in a La3+-sensitive manner. 相似文献

The effect of fluoxetine on Ca2+ signaling in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells was investigated by using fura-2 as a Ca2+ probe. Fluoxetine increased [Ca2+]i concentration-dependently between 5 microM and 200 microM with an EC50 value of 40 microM. The response was reduced by external Ca2+ removal by 30%40%. In Ca2+-free medium pretreatment with 1 microM thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump, abolished 100 microM fluoxetine-induced Ca2+ release. Addition of 3 mM Ca2+ to Ca2+-free medium increased [Ca2+]i when cells were pretreated with 100 microM fluoxetine. Suppression of 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) formation by 2 microM U73122 (a phospholipase C inhibitor) did not affect 100 microM fluoxetine-induced Ca2+ release. Fluoxetine (5-100 microM) also increased [Ca2+]i in neutrophils, prostate cancer cells and bladder cancer cells from human and rat glioma cells. 相似文献

The effect of the carcinogen safrole on intracellular Ca2+ movement has not been explored in osteoblast-like cells. This study examined whether safrole could alter Ca2+ handling and viability in MG63 human osteosarcoma cells. Cytosolic free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) in populations of cells were measured using fura-2 as a fluorescent Ca2+ probe. Safrole at concentrations above 130 microM increased [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC50 value of 450 microM. The Ca2+ signal was reduced by 30% by removing extracellular Ca2+. Addition of Ca2+ after safrole had depleted intracellular Ca2+ induced Ca2+ influx, suggesting that safrole caused Ca2+ entry. In Ca2+-free medium, after pretreatment with 650 microM safrole, 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor) failed to release more Ca2+; and pretreatment with thapsigargin inhibited most of the safrole-induced [Ca2+]i increases. Inhibition of phospholipase C with U73122 did not affect safrole-induced Ca2+ release; whereas activation of protein kinase C with phorbol ester enhanced safrole-induced [Ca2+]i increase. Trypan exclusion assays revealed that incubation with 65 microM safrole for 30 min did not kill cells, but incubation with 650 microM safrole for 10-30 min nearly killed all cells. Flow cytometry demonstrated that safrole evoked apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner. Safrole-induced cytotoxicity was not reversed by chelation of Ca2+ with BAPTA. Collectively, the data suggest that in MG63 cells, safrole induced a [Ca2+]i increase by causing Ca2+ release mainly from the endoplasmic reticulum in a phospholipase C-independent manner. The safrole response involved Ca2+ influx and is modulated by protein kinase C. Furthermore, safrole can cause apoptosis in a Ca2+-independent manner. 相似文献

Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) is widely used as a pharmacological tool to inhibit lipoxygenases; however, recent evidence suggests that it increases renal intracellular [Ca2+]i via novel mechanisms. Here the effect of NDGA on Ca2+ signaling in MG63 osteoblastic cells was explored using fura-2 as a Ca2+ indicator. NDGA (2-50 microM) increased [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner. The signal comprised an initial rise and an elevated phase over a time period of 4 min. Removing extracellular Ca2+ reduced 2-50 microM NDGA-induced signals by 62+/-2%. After incubation with 50 microM NDGA in Ca2+-free medium for several minutes, addition of 3 mM CaCl2 induced an increase in [Ca2+]i. NDGA (50 microM)-induced [Ca2+]i increases were not changed by pretreatment with 10 microM of verapamil, diltiazem, nifedipine, nimodipine and nicardipine. In Ca2+-free medium, pretreatment with the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor thapsigargin (1 microM) inhibited 50 microM NDGA-induced [Ca2+]i increases by 69+/-3%. Inhibition of phospholipase C with 2 microM U73122 had little effect on 50 microM NDGA-induced Ca2+ release. Several other lipoxygenase inhibitors had no effect on basal [Ca2+]i. At a concentration that did not increase basal [Ca2+]i, NDGA (1 microM) did not alter 10 microM ATP- or 1 microM thapsigargin-induced [Ca2+]i increases. Alteration of protein kinase C activity with 1 nM phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or 2 microM GF 109203X did not affect 50 microM NDGA-induced [Ca2+]i increases. Together, the results show that NDGA increased [Ca2+]i in osteoblasts in a lipoxygenase-independent manner, by releasing stored Ca2+ in a fashion independent of phospholipase C activity, and by causing Ca2+ influx. 相似文献

The effect of the ether lipid 1-O-octadecyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine (ET-18-OCH3) on the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells was studied using fura-2 as the Ca2+ probe. In Ca2+ medium, ET-18-OCH3 induced a significant rise in [Ca2+]i at concentrations between 10-100 microM with a concentration-dependent delay of 45-175 s. The [Ca2+]i signal was composed of a gradual rise and a sustained plateau. In Ca2+-free medium, ET-18-OCH3 (10-100 microM) induced a Ca2+ release from internal Ca2+ stores with a concentration-dependent delay of 45-175 s. This discharge of internal Ca2+ triggered capacitative Ca2+ entry in a concentration-dependent manner. This capacitative Ca2+ entry was not inhibited by econazole (25 microM), 1-[beta-[3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propoxy]-4-methoxyphenethyl]-1H-imidazole hydrochloride (SKF96365; 50 microM), nifedipine (10 microM), verapamil (10 microM), diltiazem (10 microM) and cadmium (0.5 microM). Methyl 2-(phenylthio)ethyl-1,4-dihydro-2,4,6-trimethylpyridine-3,5-dicarboxylat e (PCA-4248), a platelet-activating factor (PAF) receptor antagonist, inhibited 25 microM ET-18-OCH3-induced [Ca2+]i rise in a concentration-dependent manner between 1-20 microM, with 20 microM exerting a complete block. The [Ca2+]i rise induced by ET-18-OCH3 (25 microM) was not altered when the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) was suppressed by the phospholipase C inhibitor U73122 (2 microM), but was partly inhibited by the phospholipase D inhibitor propranolol (0.1 mM) or the phospholipase A2 inhibitor aristolochic acid (20-40 microM). In Ca2+-free medium, pretreatment with 25 microM ET-18-OCH3 completely depleted the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor thapsigargin-sensitive Ca2+ store. In contrast, pretreatment with thapsigargin abolished 0.1 mM ATP-induced [Ca2+]i rise without altering the ET-18-OCH3-induced [Ca2+]i rise. This suggests that ET-18-OCH3 depleted thapsigargin-sensitive Ca2+ stores and also released Ca2+ from thapsigargin-insensitive stores. The thapsigargin-insensitive stores involve mitochondria because the mitochondria uncoupler carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP; 2 microM) induced a release of mitochondrial Ca2+ which was abolished by pretreatment with 25 microM ET-18-OCH3. ET-18-OCH3 (25 microM) induced a significant Mn2+ quench of fura-2 fluorescence at 360 nm excitation wavelength confirming that ET-18-OCH3 induced capacitative Ca2+ entry. La3+ (0.1 mM) or Gd3+ (50 microM) abolished the ET-18-OCH3-induced Mn2+ quench and [Ca2+]i rise. Our data imply that ET-18-OCH3 induced a [Ca2+]i rise in MDCK cells by activating PAF receptors leading to an internal Ca2+ release followed by capacitative Ca2+ entry. Phospholipase D and phospholipase A2, but not phospholipase C, might be involved in mediating the capacitative Ca2+ entry. La3+ abolished the ET-18-OCH3-induced [Ca2+]i rise presumably by inhibiting PAF receptors. 相似文献

This study examined the effect of tamoxifen, an anti-breast cancer drug, on Ca2+ handling in bladder female transitional cancer cells. Changes in cytosolic free Ca2+ levels were recorded by using the Ca2+-sensitive dye fura-2. In a dose-dependent manner, tamoxifen induced intracellular free Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) increases between 5 and 20 microM with an EC50 of 10 microM. External Ca2+ removal reduced the response by 60+/-6%. Addition of 3 mM Ca2+ caused a [Ca2+]i increase after pretreatment with 10 microM tamoxifen in Ca2+-free medium. In Ca2+-free medium, pretreatment with 10 microM tamoxifen abolished the [Ca2+]i increase induced by 1 microM thapsigargin, an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor. Conversely, pretreatment with 1 microM thapsigargin prevented tamoxifen from releasing more Ca2+. Inhibition of phospholipase C-dependent inositol 1,4,5-tris-phosphate formation with 2 microM U73122 did not alter 10 microM tamoxifen-induced Ca2+ release. The [Ca2+]i increase induced by 5 microM tamoxifen was not altered by 10 microM La3+, nifedipine, verapamil, and diltiazem. Collectively, it was found that tamoxifen increased [Ca2+]i in bladder cancer cells by releasing Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ stores in a manner independent of phospholipase C activity, and by inducing Ca2+ entry from external medium. 相似文献

The histamine-induced biphasic increase of the intracellular free [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i) was studied in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells using fura-2 microfluorimetry and the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. Both the rapid, transient Ca2+ rise and the sustained plateau component of elevated [Ca2+]i were independent of extracellular Ca2+. Incubation with the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) blocker thapsigargin diminished histamine-induced changes in [Ca2+]i. When Ca2+ release was either stimulated by IP3 or blocked with the competitive inhibitor heparin, histamine was unable to elicit the typical Ca2+ rise. Ryanodine, tetracaine and ruthenium red, all blockers of Ca2+ release from caffeine-sensitive stores, had only minor effects on the agonist-induced Ca2+ changes. The contribution of mitochondria in shaping the histamine-induced Ca2+ increase was studied using ruthenium red and the two proton ionophores carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) and carbonylcyanide p-(trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone (FCCP). Both mitochondrial uncouplers reversibly increased [Ca2+]i and induced an inward current leading to cell membrane depolarisation. In summary, these results indicate that Ca2+ from IP3-sensitive stores is essential for the generation of both the transient increase and secondary elevation in [Ca2+]i. 相似文献

Carvedilol is a useful cardiovascular drug for treating heart failure, however, the in vitro effect on many cell types is unclear. In human MG63 osteosarcoma cells, the effect of carvedilol on intracellular Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) and cytotoxicity was explored by using fura-2 and tetrazolium, respectively. Carvedilol at concentrations greater than 1 microM caused a rapid rise in [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner (EC50=15 microM). Carvedilol-induced [Ca2+]i rise was reduced by 60% by removal of extracellular Ca2+. Carvedilol-induced Mn2+-associated quench of intracellular fura-2 fluorescence also suggests that carvedilol induced extracellular Ca2+ influx. In Ca2+-free medium, thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, caused a monophasic [Ca2+]i rise, after which the increasing effect of carvedilol on [Ca2+]i was inhibited by 50%. Conversely, pretreatment with carvedilol to deplete intracellular Ca2+ stores totally prevented thapsigargin from releasing more Ca2+. U73122, an inhibitor of phospholipase C, abolished histamine (an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-dependent Ca2+ mobilizer)-induced, but not carvedilol-induced, [Ca2+]i rise. Pretreatment with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and forskolin to activate protein kinase C and adenylate cyclase, respectively, did not alter carvedilol-induced [Ca2+]i rise. Separately, overnight treatment with 0.1-30 microM carvedilol inhibited cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner. These findings suggest that in human MG63 osteosarcoma cells, carvedilol increases [Ca2+]i by stimulating extracellular Ca2+ influx and also by causing intracellular Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum and other stores via a phospholipase C-independent manner. Carvedilol may be cytotoxic to osteoblasts. 相似文献

The effect of carvedilol on intracellular free Ca(2+) levels ([Ca(2+)](i)) has not been explored previously. This study was aimed to examine the effect of carvedilol on Ca(2+) handling in renal tubular cells. Madin-Darby canine kidney cells were used as a model for renal tubular cells and fura-2 was used as a fluorescent Ca(2+) probe. Carvedilol increased [Ca(2+)](i) in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC(50) value of 5 microM. Extracellular Ca(2+) removal partly inhibited the [Ca(2+)](i) signals. Carvedilol-induced Ca(2+) influx was verified by measuring Mn(2+)-induced quench of fura-2 fluorescence. Carvedilol-induced store Ca(2+) release was reduced by pretreatment with 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pump inhibitor) but not with 5 microM ryanodine or 2 microM carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (a mitochondrial uncoupler). Carvedilol (30 microM)-induced Ca(2+) release was not affected by inhibiting phospholipase C with 1-(6-((17beta-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-l)amino)hexyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (U73122; 2 microM), but was potentiated by increasing cAMP levels or inhibiting protein kinase C. The carvedilol-induced Ca(2+) mobilization was not significantly sequestered by the endoplasmic reticulum or mitochondria. This study shows that carvedilol increased [Ca(2+)](i) in renal tubular cells by causing Ca(2+) release from the endoplasmic reticulum and other unknown stores in an inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate-independent manner, and by inducing Ca(2+) influx. The Ca(2+) release was modulated by cAMP and protein kinase C. 相似文献

The effect of histamine on intracellular free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) in PC3 human prostate cancer cells and the underlying mechanism were evaluated using fura-2 as a Ca2+ dye. Histamine at concentrations between 0.1 and 50 microM increased [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC50 value of 1 microM. The [Ca2+]i response comprised an initial rise and a slow decay, which returned to baseline within 3 min. Extracellular Ca2+ removal inhibited 50% of the [Ca2+]i signal. In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, after cells were treated with 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor), 10 microM histamine did not increase [Ca2+]i. After pretreatment with 10 microM histamine in a Ca2+-free medium for several minutes, addition of 3 mM Ca2+ induced [Ca2+]i increases. Histamine (10 microM)-induced intracellular Ca2+ release was abolished by inhibiting phospholipase C with 2 microM 1-(6-((17 beta-3- methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-yl)amino)hexyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (U73122), and by 10 microM pyrilamine but was not altered by 50 microM cimetidine. Collectively, the present study shows that histamine induced [Ca2+]i transients in PC3 human prostate cancer cells by stimulating H1 histamine receptors leading to Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum in an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-dependent manner, and by inducing Ca2+ entry. 相似文献

Effect of nortriptyline on intracellular Ca2+ handling and proliferation in human osteosarcoma cells
Hsu SS Huang CJ Chen JS Cheng HH Chang HT Jiann BP Lin KL Wang JL Ho CM Jan CR 《Basic & clinical pharmacology & toxicology》2004,95(3):124-130
The effect of the antidepressant nortriptyline, on bone cells is unknown. In human osteosarcoma MG63 cells, the effect of nortriptyline on intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) and proliferation was measured by using fura-2 and tetrazolium, respectively. Nortriptyline (> or = 10 microM) caused a [Ca2+]i rise in a concentration-dependent manner (EC50 = 200 microM). Nortriptyline-induced [Ca2+]i rise was prevented by 60% by removal of extracellular Ca2+ but was not altered by voltage-gated Ca2+ channel blockers. In Ca2+ -free medium, thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ -ATPase, caused a monophasic [Ca2+]i rise, after which the increasing effect of nortriptyline on [Ca2+]i was abolished; also, pretreatment with nortriptyline abolished thapsigargin-induced [Ca2+]i increase. U73122, an inhibitor of phospholipase C, did not affect nortriptyline-induced [Ca2+]i rise; however, activation of protein kinase C decrease nortriptyline-induced [Ca2+]i rise by 32%. Overnight incubation with 50 and 100 microM nortriptyline killed 78% and 97% of cells, respectively; while 10 microM nortriptyline had no effect. These data suggest that nortriptyline rapidly increases [Ca2+]i in human osteosarcoma cells by stimulating both extracellular Ca2+ influx and intracellular Ca2+ release, and is cytotoxic at high concentrations. 相似文献

Riluzole is an effective neuroprotective drug. Its effect on intracellular free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) has not been explored. This study examined the effect of riluzole on [Ca2+]i in IMR32 neuroblastoma cells using fura-2 as a Ca2+ probe. Riluzole 0.1-1 mM increased [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ inhibited the response by 52 +/- 5%. The [Ca2+]i increase induced by 0.2 mM riluzole was unaltered by 0.1 mM La3+ or 10 microM verapamil, but was inhibited by 51 +/- 4% by 10 microM nifedipine. In Ca2+-free medium, pretreatment with 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor) reduced the 0.2 mM riluzole-induced Ca2+ release by 44 +/- 3%; this reduction was augmented to 66 +/- 5% by additionally depleting the Ca2+ stores in the Golgi complex with 50 microM brefeldin A. Inhibition of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation by 2 microM U73122, a phospholipase C inhibitor, did not affect Ca2+ release induced by 0.2 microM riluzole. It was concluded that the neuroprotective agent riluzole increased [Ca2+]i in IMR32 neuroblastoma cells concentration-dependently by releasing Ca2+ from multiple stores in an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-independent manner and also by inducing nifedipine-sensitive Ca2+ influx. 相似文献

The effect of 2,3,5-trimethyl-6-(12-hydroxy-5,10-dodecadiynyl)-1, 4-benzoquinone (AA-861), a 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor, on Ca(2+) mobilization in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells has been examined by fluorimetry using fura-2 as a Ca(2+) indicator. AA-861 at 10-200 microM increased [Ca(2+)](i) concentration dependently. The signal comprised an initial rise and a sustained phase. Ca(2+) removal inhibited the Ca(2+) signals by reducing both the initial rise and the sustained phase. In Ca(2+)-free medium, pretreatment with 50 microM AA-861 abolished the Ca(2+) release induced by thapsigargin (1 microM), an endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pump inhibitor, and carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP; 2 microM), a mitochondrial uncoupler. Pretreatment with CCCP, thapsigargin and gly-phe-beta-naphthylamide to deplete the Ca(2+) stores in mitochondria, the endoplasmic reticulum, and lysosomes, respectively, only partly inhibited AA-861-induced Ca(2+) release. This suggests AA-861 released Ca(2+) from multiple internal pools. Addition of 3 mM Ca(2+) induced a [Ca(2+)](i) rise after pretreatment with 50 microM AA-861 in Ca(2+)-free medium. AA-861 (50 microM)-induced internal Ca(2+) release was not altered by inhibition of phospholipase C with U73122 (2 microM) but was inhibited by 40% by inhibition of phospholipase A(2) with aristolochic acid (40 microM). Collectively, we found that AA-861 increased [Ca(2+)](i) in MDCK cells by releasing Ca(2+) from multiple internal stores in a manner independent of the formation of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate, followed by Ca(2+) entry from external medium. 相似文献

The effect of N-palmitoyl-L-serine phosphoric acid (L-NASPA), which has been used as an inhibitor of lysophosphatidic acid receptors, on intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in human osteosarcoma MG63 cells was measured by using fura-2. L-NASPA (0.1-10 microM) caused a rapid and transient plateau [Ca2+]i rise in a concentration-dependent manner (EC50=0.5 microM). The L-NASPA-induced [Ca2+]i rise was partly reduced by removal of extracellular Ca2+ but was not altered by L-type voltage-gated Ca2+ channel blockers. In Ca2+-free medium, thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, induced a [Ca2+]i rise, after which the increasing effect of L-NASPA on [Ca2+]i was completely inhibited; also, pretreatment with L-NASPA partly reduced thapsigargin-induced [Ca2+]i rise. U73122, an inhibitor of phospholipase C, abolished histamine (but not L-NASPA)-induced [Ca2+]i rise. Overnight incubation with 1 microM L-NASPA did not affect cell proliferation, but 10-20 microM L-NASPA exerted 4% and 15% inhibition, respectively. Collectively, L-NASPA rapidly increased [Ca2+]i in MG63 cells by evoking both extracellular Ca2+ influx and intracellular Ca2+ release, and is cytotoxic at higher concentrations. 相似文献

This study investigated the effect of the anti-anginal drug, fendiline, on intracellular free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) in HA/ 22 human hepatoma cells by using fura-2 as a fluorescent Ca2+ dye. Fendiline (1-100 microM) increased [Ca2+]i with an EC50 of 25 microM. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ reduced the [Ca2+]i signals by 51 +/- 5%. Fendiline (10 microM)-induced Ca2+ release was abolished by pretreatment with 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor). Inhibition of phospholipase C with 2 microM 1-(6-((17beta-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-yl)amino)hexyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (U73122) did not alter 10 microM fendiline-induced Ca2+ release. Several other calmodulin antagonists, such as phenoxybenzamine (100-200 microM), trifluoperazine (5-50 microM), and fluphenazine-N-chloroethane (2-100 microM), had no effect on [Ca2+]i. Together, it was found that fendiline increased [Ca2+]i in human hepatoma cells by discharging Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum in an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-independent manner and by inducing Ca2+ entry. This effect of fendiline does not appear to be via antagonism of calmodulin. 相似文献

The effect of the environmental toxicant nonylphenol on cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) and proliferation has not been explored in human osteoblast-like cells. This study examined whether nonylphenol alters Ca2+ levels and causes cell death in MG63 human osteosarcoma cells. [Ca2+]i and cell death were measured using the fluorescent dyes fura-2 and WST-1 respectively. Nonylphenol at concentrations above 3 microM increased [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner. The Ca2+ signal was reduced by 90% by removing extracellular Ca2+. The nonylphenol-induced Ca2+ influx was insensitive to blockade of L-type Ca2+ channel blockers. After pretreatment with 10 microM nonylphenol, 1 microM thapsigargin (an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor) failed to induce [Ca2+]i rises. Inhibition of phospholipase C with 2 microM U73122 did not change nonylphenol-induced [Ca2+]i rises. The nonylphenol-induced [Ca2+]i rises were enhanced or inhibited by phorbol myristate acetate or GF 109203X, respectively. At concentrations of 10 and 20 microM nonylphenol killed 55% and 100% cells, respectively. The cytotoxic effect of 10 microM nonylphenol was unaltered by pre-chelating cytosolic Ca2+ with BAPTA. Collectively, in MG63 cells, nonylphenol induced [Ca2+]i rises by causing Ca2+ release from intracellular stores and Ca2+ influx from extracellular space. Furthermore, nonylphenol can cause Ca2+-unrelated cytotoxicity in a concentration-dependent manner. 相似文献

The effect of the antidepressant fluoxetine on Ca2+ signaling in cultured cells was largely unknown. The effect of various concentrations of fluoxetine on [Ca 2+] i in populations of bladder female transitional cancer (BFTC) cells was evaluated by using fura-2 as a Ca2+ probe. Fluoxetine increased [Ca 2+] i concentration dependently (20-100 microM) with an EC50 value of 30 microM. The response was inhibited by 50-60% on extracellular Ca2+ removal. In Ca2+ -free medium, pretreatment with 1 microM thapsigargin (an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump) abolished 50 microM fluoxetine-induced Ca2+ release; whereas pretreatment with fluoxetine did not alter the thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ response. Addition of 3 mM Ca2+ increased [Ca 2+] i after pretreatment with 50 microM fluoxetine in Ca2+ -free medium, suggestive of fluoxetine-induced capacitative Ca2+ entry. Suppression of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation by 2 microM U73122 (a phospholipase C inhibitor) did not affect 50 microM fluoxetine-induced Ca2+ release. Collectively, this study shows that fluoxetine increased [Ca 2+] i in bladder cancer cells in a concentration-dependent fashion, by releasing Ca2+ from thapsigargin-sensitive Ca2+ stores in an IP3-independent manner, and by inducing Ca2+ influx from extracellular medium. 相似文献

The effect of Zn2+ on Ca2+ signaling in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells was investigated by measuring the changes in the fluorescence of the Ca2+-sensitive dye fura-2. Zn2+ significantly increased cytoplasmic free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) at concentrations of 2-100 microM. The maximum response was obtained at concentrations of 25-100 microM. The [Ca2+]i rise induced by 100 microM Zn2+ consisted of a gradual rise and a plateau phase, and was primarily mediated by La3+-sensitive extracellular Ca2+ influx because the [Ca2+]i rise was abolished by pretreatment with 100 microM La3+ or removal of extracellular Ca2+, and that Zn2+ induced Mn2+ quench of fura-2 fluorescence at 360 nm excitation wavelength which was prevented by pretreatment with 100 microM La3+. Pretreatment with 100 microM Zn2+ for 220 s did not reduce the [Ca2+]i rise induced by the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ pump inhibitor, thapsigargin, suggesting that Ca2+ release from the ER played a minor role in the Zn2+-induced [Ca2+]i rise. Zn2+ (100 microM) nearly abolished the capacitative Ca2+ entry induced by ATP (100 microM). We also investigated the effect of Zn2+ pretreatment on the [Ca2+]i rise induced by ATP. Zn2+ (100 microM) affected ATP-induced [Ca2+]i rise by abolishing capacitative Ca2+ entry and increasing [Ca2+]i on its own without altering Ca2+ release from intracellular sources. The effect of Zn2+ on [Ca2+]i was dissociated from changes in membrane potential. 相似文献

Econazole is an antifungal drug with different in vitro effects. However, econazole's effect on osteoblast-like cells is unknown. In human MG63 osteosarcoma cells, the effect of econazole on intracellular Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) was explored by using fura-2. At a concentration of 0.1 microM, econazole started to cause a rise in [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner. Econazole-induced [Ca2+]i rise was reduced by 74% by removal of extracellular Ca2+. The econazole-induced Ca2+ influx was mediated via a nimodipine-sensitive pathway. In Ca2+ -free medium, thapsigargin, an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca+ -ATPase, caused a [Ca2+]i rise, after which the increasing effect of econazole on [Ca2+]i was abolished. Pretreatment of cells with econazole to deplete Ca2+ stores totally prevented thapsigargin from releasing Ca2+. U73122, an inhibitor of phospholipase C, abolished histamine (an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-dependent Ca2+ mobilizer)-induced, but not econazole-induced, [Ca2+]i rise. Econazole inhibited 76% of thapsigargin-induced store-operated Ca2+ entry. These findings suggest that in MG63 osteosarcoma cells, econazole increases [Ca2+]i by stimulating Ca2+ influx and Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum via a phospholipase C-independent manner. In contrast, econazole acts as a potent blocker of store-operated Ca2+ entry. 相似文献
