Description
Summary:Sigma-1 receptors are ubiquitous multifunctional ligand-regulated molecular chaperons in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum, having a unique history, structure and pharmacological profile. Sigma-1 receptors modulate a wide range of cellular processes in normal and pathological conditions, inclu-ding Ca 2+ signaling processes. Using the Fura-2AM fluorescent Ca 2+ probe, we have shown that sigma-1 receptor antagonist neuroleptic haloperidol significantly suppressed the mobilization of Ca 2+ from intracellular Ca 2+ stores and the subsequent store-dependent Ca 2+ entry into cells caused by endoplasmic Ca 2+ -ATPase inhibitors thapsigargin and cyclopiazonic acid, as well as immunomodulators glutoxim and molixan in rat peritoneal macrophages. The results indicated the participation of sigma-1 receptors in the complex signaling cascade caused by glutoxim or molixan and leading to an increase in intracellular Ca 2+ concentration in macrophages, as well as the involvement of sigma-1 receptors in the regulation of store-dependent Ca 2+ entry in macrophages.
