Alkalinization-induced changes in intracellular calcium in rat spinal cord neurons.

Abstract:

:It is well-known that pH changes can influence a lot of cellular processes. In this work, we have specifically studied the influence of alkalinization, which can be developed in spinal cord neurons during hyperventilation (respiratory alkalosis) and chronic renal failure (metabolic alkalosis) on calcium homeostasis. Application of Tyrode solution with increased pH (pH = 8.8) to secondary sensory neurons isolated from rat spinal dorsal horn induced elevation of intracellular free calcium concentration in the cytosol ([Ca2+]i) if applied after membrane depolarization. Repetitive application of alkaline solution led to disappearance of such elevations. Depletion of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium stores by 30 mM caffeine almost completely blocked the effect of elevated extracellular pH. If caffeine-induced [Ca2+]i transients were evoked during alkalinization, their amplitudes were decreased by 41%. Preapplication of 500 nM ionomycin resulted in disappearance of alkalinization-induced [Ca2+]i transients, whereas prolonged applications (for 20 min) of 200 nM thapsigargin, a blocker of Ca2+ ATPase of the endoplasmic reticulum, resulted in disappearance of the rapid phase of the [Ca2+]i transients induced by alkalinization. Preapplication of the mitochondrial protonophore CCCP (10 microM) also induced changes in the alkalinization-induced calcium response--it lost its peak and was transformed into an irregular wave terminating in several seconds. The data obtained indicate that alkalinization induces an increase of [Ca2+]i level in the investigated neurons via a combined action of both intracellular Ca2+-accumulating structures--the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. This suggestion was supported by morphological data that both structures in these neurons are tightly connected and may interact during release of accumulated calcium ions.
