Galanin increases cytoplasmic calcium in insulin-producing RINm5F cells by activating phospholipase C.

Abstract:

:We showed previously that the neuropeptide, galanin, transiently and promptly increases the cytoplasmic concentration of Ca2+, [Ca2+]i, in insulin producing clonal RINm5F cells prior to a reduction in [Ca2+]i. We found that galanin (100 nM) transiently increased the [Ca2+]i in the presence of 15 mM glyceraldehyde and 3.3 mM glucose. This effect was abolished by both the inhibitor of the microsomal Ca2+ ATPase, thapsigargin, which depletes the intracellular Ca2+ stores, and the specific inhibitor of phospholipase C, U73122. In contrast, the blocker of L-type Ca2+ release, ryanodine, did not affect galanin-induced increase in [Ca2+]i. Thus, galanin induces a rapid mobilization of Ca2+ from intracellular Ca2+ stores in insulin producing RINm5F cells by an effect mediated by activated phospholipase C.

  • B cell ADAM17 controls T cell independent humoral immune responses through regulation of TACI and CD138.

    abstract::ADAM17 is known to contribute to the immune system through its shedding of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα). However, the role of ADAM17 in B cell biology is not well characterized.
