Receptor-mediated Regulation of the Nonselective Cation Channels TRPC4 and TRPC5

Abstract

Mammalian transient receptor potential channels (TRPCs) form a family of Ca2+-permeable cation channels currently consisting of seven members, TRPC1–TRPC7. These channels have been proposed to be molecular correlates for capacitative Ca2+ entry channels. There are only a few studies on the regulation and properties of the subfamily consisting of TRPC4 and TRPC5, and there are contradictory reports concerning the possible role of intracellular Ca2+ store depletion in channel activation. We therefore investigated the regulatory and biophysical properties of murine TRPC4 and TRPC5 (mTRPC4/5) heterologously expressed in human embryonic kidney cells. Activation of Gq/11-coupled receptors or receptor tyrosine kinases induced Mn2+ entry in fura-2-loaded mTRPC4/5-expressing cells. Accordingly, in whole-cell recordings, stimulation of Gq/11-coupled receptors evoked large, nonselective cation currents, an effect mimicked by infusion of guanosine 5′-3-O-(thio)triphosphate (GTPγS). However, depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores failed to activate mTRPC4/5. In inside-out patches, single channels with conductances of 42 and 66 picosiemens at −60 mV for mTRPC4 and mTRPC5, respectively, were stimulated by GTPγS in a membrane-confined manner. Thus, mTRPC4 and mTRPC5 form nonselective cation channels that integrate signaling pathways from G-protein-coupled receptors and receptor tyrosine kinases independently of store depletion. Furthermore, the biophysical properties of mTRPC4/5 are inconsistent with those ofI CRAC, the most extensively characterized store-operated current.

Jiang M. Peyton M. Boulay G. Hurst R. Stefani E. Birnbaumer L. Cell. 1996; 85: 661-671Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (607) Google Scholar). A first hint as to how mammalian TRPCs1 could be regulated came from the Drosophila visual signaling cascade. InDrosophila rhabdomeres, illumination is followed by G-protein-mediated activation of phospholipase C (PLC) and results in the stimulation of a light-induced current that is generated by TRP and TRPL (TRP-like) cation channels (2.Peretz A. Suss-Toby E. Rom-Glas A. Arnon A. Payne R. Minke B. Neuron. 1994; 12: 1257-1267Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (126) Google Scholar, 3.Niemeyer B.A. Suzuki E. Scott K. Jalink K. Zuker C.S.

Neuron. 1997; 19: 1249-1259Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (163) Google Scholar). The light-induced current may integrate several functions, including (i) depolarization of the membrane and generation of a receptor potential, (ii) augmentation of Ca2+-dependent signaling processes, and (iii) replenishment of internal calcium stores. Thus, mammalian homologues may serve similar functions. In mammalian cells, activation of PLCs by extracellular signaling molecules leads to the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) and diacylglycerol and couples to intracellular signaling cascades by increasing the cytosolic Ca2+concentration ([Ca2+]i). These changes in [Ca2+]i result from InsP3-mediated Ca2+ release from intracellular stores and/or Ca2+ entry from the extracellular space. Ca2+entry may be regulated by different mechanisms. In many cell types, depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores following Ca2+ release or inhibition of Ca2+ uptake leads to Ca2+ entry from the extracellular space, a process often called capacitative calcium entry that is mediated by store-operated channels (5.Putney Jr., J.W. Science. 1993; 262: 676-678Crossref PubMed Scopus (167) Google Scholar, 6.Putney Jr., J.W. Bird G.S. Cell. 1993; 75: 199-201Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (397) Google Scholar). The best characterized current through store-operated channels is the calcium release-activated Ca2+ current (I CRAC), but other, less Ca2+-selective channels have also been described (7.Parekh A.B. Penner R. Physiol. Rev. 1997; 77: 901-930Crossref PubMed Scopus (1295) Google Scholar). Other Ca2+ entry mechanisms downstream of receptor activation are mediated by second messengers, but independently of store depletion. There is good agreement that TRPCs are activated downstream of G-protein-coupled receptors, which induce PLC-mediated phosphoinositide breakdown. However, the downstream signaling pathways that finally activate TRPCs remain highly controversial. For nearly all of the functionally expressed TRPCs, there is at least one report proposing a store-operated mechanism of activation (1.Zhu X. Jiang M. Peyton M. Boulay G. Hurst R. Stefani E.
