Abstract

Despite their relevance for neuronal Ca2+-induced Ca 2+ release (CICR), activation by Ca2+ of ryanodine receptor (RyR) channels of brain endoplasmic reticulum at the [ATP], [Mg 2+], and redox conditions present in neurons has not been reported. Here, we studied the effects of varying cis-(cytoplasmic) free ATP concentration ([ATP]), [Mg2+], and RyR redox state on the Ca2+ dependence of endoplasmic reticulum RyR channels from rat brain cortex. At pCa 4.9 and 0.5 mM adenylylimidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP), increasing free [Mg 2+] up to 1 mM inhibited vesicular [3H]ryanodine binding; incubation with thimerosal or dithiothreitol decreased or enhanced Mg 2+ inhibition, respectively. Single RyR channels incorporated into lipid bilayers displayed three different Ca2+ dependencies, defined by low, moderate, or high maximal fractional open time (Po), that depend on RyR redox state, as we have previously reported. In all cases, cis-ATP addition (3 mM) decreased threshold [Ca2+] for activation, increased maximal Po, and shifted channel inhibition to higher [Ca 2+]. Conversely, at pCa 4.5 and 3 mM ATP, increasing cis-[Mg 2+] up to 1 mM inhibited low activity channels more than moderate activity channels but barely modified high activity channels. Addition of 0.5 mM free [ATP] plus 0.8 mM free [Mg2+] induced a right shift in Ca 2+ dependence for all channels so that [Ca2+] <30 μM activated only high activity channels. These results strongly suggest that channel redox state determines RyR activation by Ca2+ at physiological [ATP] and [Mg2+]. If RyR behave similarly in living neurons, cellular redox state should affect RyR-mediated CICR. Copyright © 2007 the American Physiological Society.
