چکیده

We have demonstrated that soft substrate induced apoptosis in polarized cells, but not in transformed cells by disturbance of Ca homeostasis. This study aims to further investigate the regulatory mechanisms underlying the disruption of Ca-signaling integrity in soft substrate-induced epithelial apoptosis. Soft substrate upregulated the store-operated Ca (SOC) entry across the plasma membrane of normal cervical epithelial cells, which resulted in increased cytosolic Ca levels. Concomitantly, soft substrate induced the aggregation and translocation of stromal interacting molecule 1 (STIM1) toward the cell periphery to co-localize with Orai1, an essential pore subunit of SOC channel, detected by fluorescence resonance energy transfer approach and confocal image analyses. The disturbed Ca homeostasis resulted in the activation of μ-calpain which cleaved α-spectrin, induced actin disorganization and caused apoptosis. In contrast, soft substrate did not disturb Ca homeostasis or induce apoptosis in cervical cancer cells. Chelating extracellular Ca by EGTA, downregulated SOC entry by small interfering RNA targeting STIM1 or inhibitors targeting Ca-binding site of calpain significantly inhibited soft substrate-induced activation of μ-calpain and epithelial cell apoptosis. Thus, soft substrate upregulates the interaction of STIM1 with SOC channels that results in the activation of μ-calpain and subsequently induces normal epithelial cell apoptosis.

Soft substrate up-regulates the interaction of STIM1 with store-operated Ca2+ channels that lead to normal epithelial cell apoptosis.

We have demonstrated that soft substrate induced apoptosis in polarized cells, but not in transformed cells by disturbance of Ca(2+) homeostasis. This study aims to further investigate the regulatory mechanisms underlying the disruption of Ca(2+)-signaling integrity in soft substrate-induced epithelial apoptosis. Soft substrate up-regulated the store-operated Ca(2+) (SOC) entry across the plasm...

Dynamic interaction of SARAF with STIM1 and Orai1 to modulate store-operated calcium entry

Ca(2+) influx by store-operated Ca(2+) channels is a major mechanism for intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis and cellular function. Here we present evidence for the dynamic interaction between the SOCE-associated regulatory factor (SARAF), STIM1 and Orai1. SARAF overexpression attenuated SOCE and the STIM1-Orai1 interaction in cells endogenously expressing STIM1 and Orai1 while RNAi-mediated SARAF...

Microtubule-associated histone deacetylase 6 supports the calcium store sensor STIM1 in mediating malignant cell behaviors.

Stromal-interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) is an endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) storage sensor that promotes cell growth, migration, and angiogenesis in breast and cervical cancers. Here, we report that the microtubule-associated histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) differentially regulates activation of STIM1-mediated store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) between cervical cancer cells and normal cervical epit...

STIM and Orai1 Variants in Store-Operated Calcium Entry

Store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) is an ubiquitous mechanism for Ca(2+) entry in eukaryotic cells. This route for Ca(2+) influx is regulated by the filling state of the intracellular Ca(2+) stores communicated to the plasma membrane channels by the proteins of the Stromal Interaction Molecule (STIM) family, STIM1, and STIM2. Store-dependent, STIM1-modulated, channels include the Ca(2+) release...

Evidence for an interaction between Golli and STIM1 in store-operated calcium entry

SOCCs (store-operated Ca(2+) channels) are highly selective ion channels that are activated upon release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores to regulate a multitude of diverse cellular functions. It was reported previously that Golli-BG21, a member of the MBP (myelin basic protein) family of proteins, regulates SOCE (store-operated Ca(2+) entry) in T-cells and oligodendrocyte precursor cells, b...
