Mitochondria positioning controls local calcium influx in T cells.
Formation of an immunological synapse (IS) between APC and T cells activates calcium entry through ORAI channels, which is indispensable for T cell activation. Successful proliferation and maturation of naive T cells is possible only if premature inactivation of ORAI channels is prevented. Although it is undisputed that calcium entry through ORAI channels is required for T cell function, it is ...
متن کاملCalcium Influx: Beyond ‘Current’ Biology
A novel, cell-surface protein essential for Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channel function has been identified through independent genome-wide screens. This huge advance will enable molecular dissection of the CRAC channel complex, moving the field beyond Icrac signature to structure.
متن کاملCalcium influx through CRAC channels controls actin organization and dynamics at the immune synapse
T cell receptor (TCR) engagement opens Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels and triggers formation of an immune synapse between T cells and antigen-presenting cells. At the synapse, actin reorganizes into a concentric lamellipod and lamella with retrograde actin flow that helps regulate the intensity and duration of TCR signaling. We find that Ca(2+) influx is required to drive actin...
متن کاملPKA Controls Calcium Influx into Motor Neurons during a Rhythmic Behavior
Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) has been implicated in the execution of diverse rhythmic behaviors, but how cAMP functions in neurons to generate behavioral outputs remains unclear. During the defecation motor program in C. elegans, a peptide released from the pacemaker (the intestine) rhythmically excites the GABAergic neurons that control enteric muscle contractions by activating a G pr...
متن کاملErythropoietin-Modulated Calcium Influx Through TRPC2 Is
Erythropoietin (Epo) modulates calcium influx through the calcium-permeable channel TRPC2. Here, the mechanisms through which Epo activates TRPC2 were examined. Erythroblasts were isolated from the spleens of phenylhydrazine-treated mice, and Epo stimulation resulted in a significant and dose-dependent increase in intracellular calcium ([Ca]i). This increase in [Ca]i was inhibited by pretreatme...
