These channels have been widely characterized in terms of their molecular structure, pharmacology and electrophysiology. They control the repolarising and hyperpolarising phases of the action potential, thereby regulating the firing frequency and contraction profiles of the smooth muscle. Several groups have reported varied profiles of BK currents and I-V curves under similar experimental conditions. However, no single computational model has been able to reconcile these apparent discrepancies. In view of the channels’ physiological importance, it is imperative to understand their mechanistic underpinnings so that a realistic model can be created. This paper presents a computational model of the BK channel, based on the Hodgkin-Huxley formalism, constructed by utilising three activation processes — membrane potential, calcium inflow from voltage-gated calcium channels on the membrane and calcium released from the ryanodine receptors present on the sarcoplasmic reticulum. In our model, we attribute the discrepant profiles to the underlying cytosolic calcium received by the channel during its activation. The model enables us to make heuristic predictions regarding the nature of the sub-membrane calcium dynamics underlying the BK channel’s activation.

  • The Role of Transient Receptor Potential Cation Channels in Ca2þ Signaling

TRP channels are widely expressed in a large number of different tissues and cell types, and their biological roles appear to be equally diverse. In general, considered as poly- modal cell sensors, they play a much more diverse role than anticipated. Functionally, TRP channels, when activated, cause cell depolarization, which may trigger a plethora of voltage-dependent ion channels. Upon stimulation, Ca2þ permeable TRP channels 2þ 2þ 2þ generate changes in the intracellular Ca concentration, [Ca ]i,byCa entry via the plasma membrane. However, more and more evidence is arising that TRP channels are also located in intracellular organelles and serve as intracellular Ca2þ release channels.

We show that VDAC1 silencing potentiates apoptotic challenges, whereas VDAC2 has the opposite effect. Although all three VDAC isoforms are equivalent in allowing mitochondrial Ca2 þ loading upon agonist stimulation, VDAC1 silencing selectively impairs the transfer of the low-amplitude apoptotic Ca2 þ signals. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments show that VDAC1, but not VDAC2 and VDAC3, forms complexes with IP3 receptors, an interaction that is further strengthened by apoptotic stimuli. These data highlight a non-redundant molecular route for transferring Ca2 þ signals to mitochondria in apoptosis.

  • 4-6 Weeks Old Female C57BL/6 Mice Obtained from Jackson Labs Were Used for Cell Isolation
    Methods Mice: 4-6 weeks old female C57BL/6 mice obtained from Jackson labs were used for cell isolation. Female Foxp3-IRES-GFP reporter mice (1), backcrossed to B6/C57 background for 10 generations, were used for the isolation of naïve CD4 and naïve CD8 cells for the RNAseq experiments. The mice were housed in pathogen-free animal facility in the La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology and were used according to protocols approved by the Institutional Animal Care and use Committee. Preparation of cells: Subsets of thymocytes were isolated by cell sorting as previously described (2), after cell surface staining using CD4 (GK1.5), CD8 (53-6.7), CD3ε (145- 2C11), CD24 (M1/69) (all from Biolegend). DP cells: CD4+CD8 int/hi; CD4 SP cells: CD4CD3 hi, CD24 int/lo; CD8 SP cells: CD8 int/hi CD4 CD3 hi, CD24 int/lo (Fig S2). Peripheral subsets were isolated after pooling spleen and lymph nodes. T cells were enriched by negative isolation using Dynabeads (Dynabeads untouched mouse T cells, 11413D, Invitrogen). After surface staining for CD4 (GK1.5), CD8 (53-6.7), CD62L (MEL-14), CD25 (PC61) and CD44 (IM7), naïve CD4+CD62L hiCD25-CD44lo and naïve CD8+CD62L hiCD25-CD44lo were obtained by sorting (BD FACS Aria). Additionally, for the RNAseq experiments, CD4 and CD8 naïve cells were isolated by sorting T cells from the Foxp3- IRES-GFP mice: CD4+CD62LhiCD25–CD44lo GFP(FOXP3)– and CD8+CD62LhiCD25– CD44lo GFP(FOXP3)– (antibodies were from Biolegend). In some cases, naïve CD4 cells were cultured in vitro under Th1 or Th2 polarizing conditions (3, 4).

  • Entropy-Based Regulation of Cluster Ion Channel Density
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Molecular and cellular correlates in Kv channel clustering: entropy‑based regulation of cluster ion channel density Limor Lewin1, Esraa Nsasra1, Ella Golbary1, Uzi Hadad2, Irit Orr1 & Ofer Yifrach1* Scafold protein-mediated ion channel clustering at unique membrane sites is important for electrical signaling. Yet, the mechanism(s) by which scafold protein-ion channel interactions lead to channel clustering or how cluster ion channel density is regulated is mostly not known. The voltage‑activated potassium channel (Kv) represents an excellent model to address these questions as the mechanism underlying its interaction with the post-synaptic density 95 (PSD-95) scafold protein is known to be controlled by the length of the extended ‘ball and chain’ sequence comprising the C-terminal channel region. Here, using sub-difraction high-resolution imaging microscopy, we show that Kv channel ‘chain’ length regulates Kv channel density with a ‘bell’-shaped dependence, refecting a balance between thermodynamic considerations controlling ‘chain’ recruitment by PSD-95 and steric hindrance due to the spatial proximity of multiple channel molecules. Our results thus reveal an entropy‑based mode of channel cluster density regulation that mirrors the entropy‑based regulation of the Kv channel-PSD-95 interaction. The implications of these fndings for electrical signaling are discussed. Action potential generation, propagation and the evoked synaptic potential all rely on precisely timed events associated with activation and inactivation gating transitions of voltage-dependent Na + and K + channels, clus- tered in multiple copies at unique membrane sites, such as the initial segment of an axon, nodes of Ranvier, pre-synaptic terminals or at the post-synaptic density (PSD)1–3.

However, the overall impact of ion channels on tumorigenicity in breast cancer remains controversial. Methods: We conduct microarray meta-analysis on 280 ion channel genes. We identify candidate ion channels that are implicated in breast cancer based on gene expression profiling. We test the relationship between the expression of ion channel genes and p53 mutation status, ER status, and histological tumor grade in the discovery cohort. A molecular signature consisting of ion channel genes (IC30) is identified by Spearman’s rank correlation test conducted between tumor grade and gene expression. A risk scoring system is developed based on IC30. We test the prognostic power of IC30 in the discovery and seven validation cohorts by both Cox proportional hazard regression and log-rank test.

  • A Two-Pore Channel Protein Required for Regulating Mtorc1 Activity On
    Chang et al. BMC Biology (2020) 18:8 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12915-019-0735-4 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access A two-pore channel protein required for regulating mTORC1 activity on starvation Fu-Sheng Chang1, Yuntao Wang1, Phillip Dmitriev1, Julian Gross2, Antony Galione2 and Catherine Pears1* Abstract Background: Two-pore channels (TPCs) release Ca2+ from acidic intracellular stores and are implicated in a number of diseases, but their role in development is unclear. The social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum proliferates as single cells that aggregate to form a multicellular organism on starvation. Starvation is sensed by the mTORC1 complex which, like TPC proteins, is found on acidic vesicles. Here, we address the role of TPCs in development and under starvation. Results: We report that disruption of the gene encoding the single Dictyostelium TPC protein, TPC2, leads to a delay in early development and prolonged growth in culture with delayed expression of early developmental genes, although a rapid starvation-induced increase in autophagy is still apparent. Ca2+ signals induced by extracellular cAMP are delayed in developing tpc2− cells, and aggregation shows increased sensitivity to weak bases, consistent with reduced acidity of the vesicles. In mammalian cells, the mTORC1 protein kinase has been proposed to suppress TPC channel opening. Here, we show a reciprocal effect as tpc2− cells show an increased level of phosphorylation of an mTORC1 substrate, 4E-BP1. mTORC1 inhibition reverses the prolonged growth and increases the efficiency of aggregation of tpc2− cells. Conclusion: TPC2 is required for efficient growth development transition in Dictyostelium and acts through modulation of mTORC1 activity revealing a novel mode of regulation.
