Intracellular Ca2+ store depletion induces Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane, allowing the store to recharge. In our experiments, Ca2+ stores in pancreatic acinar cells were depleted by acetylcholine (ACh) stimulation in Ca2+-free solution. Thereafter, Ca2+ entry was only allowed through a CaCl2-containing pipette attached to the basal membrane. Recharging intracellular Ca2+ stores via a patch pipette occurred without a rise in the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration and depended on the operation of a thapsigargin-sensitive Ca2+ pump. After a period of focal Ca2+ entry, ACh could again evoke a rise in the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration, and this rise always started in the apical secretory pole. Recharging the apical Ca2+ store therefore depends on Ca2+ flow through a tunnel from the basal to the secretory pole, and the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump is essential for this process.
