PG - 955-61 LID - 10.1016/j.bbrc.2010.03.096 [doi] AB - Capacitative calcium entry (CCE) refers to the influx of calcium through plasma membrane channels activated on depletion of endoplasmic sarcoplasmic/reticulum (ER/SR) Ca(2+) stores, which is performed mainly by the transient receptor potential (TRP) channels. TRP channels are expressed in cardiomyocytes. Calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) is also expressed in rat cardiac tissue and plays an important role in mediating cardiomyocyte apoptosis. However, there are no data regarding the link between CaR and TRP channels in rat heart. In this study, in rat neonatal myocytes, by Ca(2+) imaging, we found that the depletion of ER/SR Ca(2+) stores by thapsigargin (TG) elicited a transient rise in cytoplasmic Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)), followed by sustained increase depending on extracellular Ca(2+). But, TRP channels inhibitor (SKF96365), not L-type channels or the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger inhibitors, inhibited [Ca(2+)](i) relatively high. Then, we found that the stimulation of CaR with its activator gadolinium chloride (GdCl(3)) or by an increased extracellular Ca(2+)([Ca(2+)](o)) increased the concentration of intracelluar Ca(2+), whereas, the sustained elevation of [Ca(2+)](i) was reduced in the presence of SKF96365. Similarly, the duration of [Ca(2+)](i) increase was also shortened in the absence of extracellular Ca(2+). Western blot analysis showed that GdCl(3) increased the expression of TRPC6, which was reversed by SKF96365. Additionally, SKF96365 reduced cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by GdCl(3). Our results suggested that CCE exhibited in rat neonatal myocytes and CaR activation induced Ca(2+)-permeable cationic channels TRPCs to gate the CCE, for which TRPC6 was one of the most likely candidates. TRPC6 channel was functionally coupled with CaR to enhance the cardiomyocyte apoptosis. CI - 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
