SOCE can regulate cell growth, exocytosis, gene expression and inflammation. We previously found that short palate lung and nasal epithelial clone 1′s (SPLUNC1) sixth α-helix (α6) bound Orai1 to inhibit SOCE. SPLUNC1 was not proteolytically stable, so we developed ELD607, an 11 amino acid peptide based on SPLUNC1’s α6 region which was more stable and more potent than SPLUNC1/α6. Here, we studied ELD607’s mechanism of action. We overexpressed either Orai1-HA or Orai1-YFP in HEK293T cells to probe ELD607-Orai1 interactions by confocal microscopy. We also measured changes in Fluo-4 fluorescence in a multiplate reader as a marker of cytoplasmic Ca<sup>2+</sup> levels. ELD607 internalized Orai1 independently of STIM1. Both 15 min and 3 h exposure to ELD607 similarly depleted Orai1 in the plasma membrane. However, 3 h exposure to ELD607 yielded greater inhibition of SOCE. ELD607 continued to colocalize with Orai1 after internalization and this process was dependent on the presence of the ubiquitin ligase NEDD4.2. Similarly, ELD607 increased the colocalization between Orai1 and ubiquitin. ELD607 also increased the colocalization between Orai1 and Rab5 and 7, but not Rab11, suggesting that Orai1 trafficked through early and late but not recycling endosomes. Finally, ELD607 caused Orai1, but not Orai2, Orai3, or STIM1 to traffic to lysosomes. We conclude that ELD607 rapidly binds to Orai1 and works in an identical fashion as full length SPLUNC1 by internalizing Orai1 and sending it to lysosomes, leading to a decrease in SOCE.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":9678,"journal":{"name":"Cell calcium","volume":"123 ","pages":"Article 102945"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0143416024001039/pdfft?md5=fb9b28cebc700529d56816f0ae473c7a&pid=1-s2.0-S0143416024001039-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142075753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a major secondary event, an abnormal elevation of the intracellular calcium concentration in the dystrophin-deficient muscle contributes to disease progression in DMD. In this study, we investigated the specific functional features of induced pluripotent stem cell-derived muscle cells (hiPSC-skMCs) generated from DMD patients to regulate intracellular calcium concentration. As compared to healthy hiPSC-skMCs, DMD hiPSC-skMCs displayed specific spontaneous calcium signatures with high levels of intracellular calcium concentration. Furthermore, stimulations with electrical field or with acetylcholine perfusion induced higher calcium response in DMD hiPSC-skMCs as compared to healthy cells. Finally, Mn2+ quenching experiments demonstrated high levels of constitutive calcium entries in DMD hiPSC-skMCs as compared to healthy cells. Our findings converge on the fact that DMD hiPSC-skMCs display intracellular calcium dysregulation as demonstrated in several other models. Observed calcium disorders associated with RNAseq analysis on these DMD cells highlighted some mechanisms, such as spontaneous and activated sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) releases or constitutive calcium entries, known to be disturbed in other dystrophin-deficient models. However, store operated calcium entries (SOCEs) were not found to be dysregulated in our DMD hiPSC-skMCs model. These results suggest that all the mechanisms of calcium impairment observed in other animal models may not be as pronounced in humans and could point to a preference for certain mechanisms that could correspond to major molecular targets for DMD therapies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":9678,"journal":{"name":"Cell calcium","volume":"123 ","pages":"Article 102943"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0143416024001015/pdfft?md5=8264d1db13ed561425b5160803383264&pid=1-s2.0-S0143416024001015-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141998326","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is extensive proteomic interaction of ORAI1 with other channels and effectors, resulting in various altered phenotypes. However, the transcription regulation of ORAI1 is not well understood. We have found a putative G-quadruplex (G4) motif, <em>ORAI1-Pu</em>, in the upstream promoter region of the gene, having regulatory functions. High-resolution 3-D NMR structure elucidation suggests that <em>ORAI1-Pu</em> is a stable parallel-stranded G4, having a long 8-nt loop imparting dynamics without affecting the structural stability. The protruded loop further houses an E-box motif that provides a docking site for transcription factors like Zeb1. The G4 structure was also endogenously observed using Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) with anti-G4 antibody (BG4) in the MDA-MB-231 cell line overexpressing ORAI1.
