Summary: | T-cell receptor stimulation triggers cytosolic Ca
signaling by inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP
)-mediated Ca
release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Ca
entry through Ca
release-activated Ca
(CRAC) channels gated by ER-located stromal-interacting molecules (STIM1/2). Physiologically, cytosolic Ca
signaling manifests as regenerative Ca
oscillations, which are critical for nuclear factor of activated T-cells-mediated transcription. In most cells, Ca
oscillations are thought to originate from IP
receptor-mediated Ca
release, with CRAC channels indirectly sustaining them through ER refilling. Here, experimental and computational evidence support a multiple-oscillator mechanism in Jurkat T-cells whereby both IP
receptor and CRAC channel activities oscillate and directly fuel antigen-evoked Ca
oscillations, with the CRAC channel being the major contributor. KO of either STIM1 or STIM2 significantly reduces CRAC channel activity. As such, STIM1 and STIM2 synergize for optimal Ca
oscillations and activation of nuclear factor of activated T-cells 1 and are essential for ER refilling. The loss of both STIM proteins abrogates CRAC channel activity, drastically reduces ER Ca
content, severely hampers cell proliferation and enhances cell death. These results clarify the mechanism and the contribution of STIM proteins to Ca
oscillations in T-cells. |
