pubmed:abstractText
Microdomains of high Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]) may be critical to the control of intracellular processes such as secretion and metabolism without compromising other cell functions. To explore changes in [Ca2+] in the outer mantle (< 30 nm deep) that surrounds the surface of dense-core secretory granules, we have designed a recombinant chimaera between the granule protein phogrin and aequorin. When expressed in populations of insulin-secreting MIN6 or phaeochromocytoma PC12 cells, the chimaera was targeted to secretory granules as expected. The recombinant protein reported a similar [Ca2+] at the granule surface to that in the bulk cytosol, measured with untargeted aequorin. This was the case both at rest (-Ca2+- = 80-120 nM) and after stimulation with agents that provoke Ca2+ entry or Ca2+ mobilization from intracellular pools, and during activated secretion. Thus depolarization of MIN6 cell populations with high K+ increased [Ca2+] both in the bulk cytosol and close to the granules to approx. 4 microM, with near-identical kinetics of increase and recovery. Similarly, stimulation of PC12 cells with ATP provoked an increase in -Ca2+- in either domain to 1.3 microM. These data argue that, in MIN6 and PC12 neuroendocrine cells (i) significant mobilization of Ca2+ from most secretory granules probably does not occur during activated Ca2+ influx or mobilization of internal Ca2+ stores, and (ii) agonist-stimulated Ca2+-dependent secretion can occur without development of a large gradient of [Ca2+] between the surface of most secretory vesicles and the rest of the cytosol.
