Takahashi, Tamayo published the artcileComponent of nicotine-induced intracellular calcium elevation mediated through α3- and α5-containing nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are regulated by cyclic AMP in SH-SY 5Y cells, Quality Control of 21829-25-4, the main research area is nicotine nAChR cyclic AMP SH SY 5Y cell.
The pathway from the medial habenular nucleus to the interpeduncular nucleus, in which nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) including the α3 and α5 subunits (α3 * and α5 * nAChRs) are expressed, is implicated in nicotine dependence. We investigated whether α3 * and α5 * nAChRs are regulated by cAMP using SH-SY5Y cells to clarify the significance of these receptors in nicotine dependence. We analyzed the nicotine-induced elevation of intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i). Nicotine induces a concentration-dependent increase in [Ca2+]i. The elimination of Ca2+ from extracellular fluid or intracellular stores demonstrated that the nicotine-induced [Ca2+]i elevation was due to extracellular influx and intracellular mobilization. The effects of tubocurarine on nicotine-induced [Ca2+]i elevation and current suggest that intracellular mobilization is caused by plasma membrane-permeating nicotine. The inhibition of α3 *, α5 *, α7 nAChR and voltage-gated Ca2+ channels by using siRNAs and selective antagonists revealed the involvement of these nAChR subunits and channels in nicotine-induced [Ca2+]i elevation. To distinguish and characterize the α3 * and α5 * nAChR-mediated Ca2+ influx, we measured the [Ca2+]i elevation induced by nonmembrane-permeating acetylcholine when muscarinic receptors, α7nAChR and Ca2+ channels were blocked. Under this condition, the [Ca2+]i elevation was significantly inhibited with a 48-h treatment of dibutyryl cAMP, which was accompanied by the downregulation of α3 and β4 mRNA. These findings suggest that α3 * and α5 * nAChR-mediated Ca2+ influx is possibly regulated by cAMP at the transcriptional level.
