The role of cyclic ADP-ribose in the amplification of subcellular and global Ca2  signaling upon stimulation of P2Y purinergic receptors was studied in 3T3 fibroblasts. Either (1) 3T3 fibroblasts (CD38- cells), (2) 3T3 fibroblasts preloaded by incubation with extracellular cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), (3) 3T3 fibroblasts microinjected with ryanodine, or (4) 3T3 fibroblasts transfected to express the ADP-ribosyl cyclase CD38 (CD38  cells) were used. Both preincubation with cADPR and CD38 expression resulted in comparable intracellular amounts of cyclic ADP-ribose (42.3 ± 5.2 and 50.5 ± 8.0 pmol/mg protein). P2Y receptor stimulation of CD38- cells yielded a small increase of intracellular Ca2  concentration and a much higher Ca2  signal in CD38-transfected cells, in cADPR-preloaded cells, or in cells microinjected with ryanodine. Confocal Ca2  imaging revealed that stimulation of ryanodine receptors by cADPR or ryanodine amplified localized pacemaker Ca2  signals with properties resembling Ca2  quarks and triggered the propagation of such localized signals from the plasma membrane toward the internal environment, thereby initiating a global Ca2  wave.

3 U* x! p4 O+ n7 nCyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), a potent Ca2  mobilizer from ryanodine-sensitive calcium stores and functionally active in a wide variety of cell types, is generated from NAD  as substrate by a family of multifunctional enzymes designated ADP-ribosyl cyclases (Guse, 2002; Lee, 2001, 2002). Two ecto-ADP-ribosyl cyclases have been cloned and characterized: the transmembrane type II glycoprotein CD38 and the GPI-anchored protein CD157 (BST-1). Cytosolic ADP-ribosyl cyclase activities have been observed in the marine mollusk Aplysia californica, where the first cyclase was cloned and fully characterized (Lee, 2002), but also in sea urchin eggs (Graeff et al., 1998), human T-lymphocytes (Guse et al., 1999), human blood mononuclear cells (Bruzzone et al., 2003), rat pancreatic acinar cells (Sternfeld et al., 2003), and bovine brain (Matsumura and Tanuma, 1998).# q( p; q$ J. d  b, @1 i1 G

cADPR is but one of various signal metabolites (cADPR, D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate , and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate ) that can release Ca2  from specific internal stores, in some cases coproduced in the same cell type (for review see da Silva and Guse, 2000). Many cell types have been reported to harbour IP3-, cADPR-, and NAADP-sensitive stores (Albrieux et al., 1998; Guse et al., 1999; Berg et al., 2000; Cancela et al., 2000; Santella et al., 2000; Churchill and Galione, 2001; Hoesch et al., 2002; Brailoiu et al., 2003). The complex spatio-temporal patterns of functional interplay among these Ca2 -mobilizing second messengers and their target receptors represent a central issue in order to elucidate the mechanisms that underlie mobilization of Ca2  from the different stores, thereby affecting fundamental and diverse cell functions (Meldolesi and Pozzan, 1998; Berridge et al., 2000; Meldolesi, 2002; Carafoli, 2003).

A long recognized paradox of the NAD /cADPR system is its compartmentation in several mammalian cell types (for review see De Flora et al., 2002). Thus, for instance, the exposure of intact cells to extracellular cADPR has been shown to upgrade the functional response to different agonists (De Flora et al., 1996; Podest角 et al., 2000; Franco et al., 2001a; Zocchi et al., 2001). Studies performed on murine 3T3 fibroblasts revealed that internalization of extracellular cADPR occurs through a number of equilibrative and concentrative nucleoside transporters (Guida et al., 2002) and that influx of cADPR into intact 3T3 cells is paralleled by a sustained increase of the basal intracellular Ca2  concentration (i) (Franco et al., 2001b). Indeed, comparable increases of the basal i are also observed after "de novo" expression of CD38 in 3T3 cells, as a result of the related generation of intracellular cADPR, which is responsible for the doubling of i in CD38  3T3 compared with antisense-transfected (CD38-) or wild-type cells (Zocchi et al., 1998).

L* Y* _Murine 3T3 fibroblasts seem to represent a good experimental system to study the interplay between the Ca2 -mobilizing metabolites cADPR and IP3 for a number of reasons: (1) 3T3 cells respond to extracellular micromolar ATP with an IP3-dependent calcium release mediated by P2Y purinergic receptors (Giovannardi et al., 1992); (2) cADPR can be internalized by intact 3T3 fibroblasts across the above-mentioned nucleoside transporters, without the need to permeabilize the cells (Guida et al., 2002); (3) sense- and antisense CD38–transfected cells have a significantly different i, due to presence or absence, respectively, of intracellular cADPR (Zocchi et al., 1998); and (4) both IP3- and cADPR-sensitive calcium stores are present in this cell type (Giovannardi et al., 1992; Zocchi et al., 1998).' a1 D$ Z9 x! i$ K& P2 v; f7 g8 A

Different i responses to ATP in CD38  and CD38- 3T3 fibroblasts

Intact sense (CD38 )- and antisense (CD38-)-transfected 3T3 fibroblasts were comparatively challenged with 100 μM ATP, a concentration known to stimulate P2Y receptors (Giovannardi et al., 1992; Di Virgilio et al., 2001). The immediate increase of cytosolic i was remarkably different in the two cell types, with the CD38  cells exhibiting much higher peak and plateau responses to ATP (Fig. 1 A). When ATP was supplemented in the presence of EGTA, the extent of i increase was almost superimposable to that recorded in a Ca2 -containing buffer, thus indicating release from intracellular stores as the main underlying mechanism (Fig. 1 B). On the contrary, when CD38- and CD38  cells were stimulated with 3 mM ATP (a concentration that triggers the P2X receptors, see Di Virgilio et al., 2001), the two cell populations showed quite comparable i increases. These were abolished by the presence of EGTA in the buffer, therefore demonstrating that calcium influx follows stimulation of the P2X receptors (not depicted). Thus, the i increases elicited by calcium influx across ATP-gated ion channels (P2X receptors) are not influenced by CD38 expression in 3T3 fibroblasts.* m* D; Q% Q/ f: f

/ F, H! Y! b; T! H9 AA distinctive feature between the CD38- and CD38  cells is the presence of intracellular cADPR in the latter cell population, as a consequence of the expression of ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity (Zocchi et al., 1998). The amount of intracellular cADPR in CD38  3T3 fibroblasts was assayed with a highly sensitive procedure of enzymatic cycling (Graeff and Lee, 2002) and estimated to be 50.48 ± 8.03 pmol/mg protein (n = 8). Conversely, the concentration of cADPR in CD38- cells was hardly detectable (0.25 ± 0.11 pmol/mg protein, n = 9). The corresponding levels of ectocellular ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity, taken as a measure of CD38 content, were 91.25 ± 8.83 (n = 4) and 0.28 ± 0.06 (n = 5) pmol cADPR/min/mg, respectively, in the CD38  and CD38- cells. To investigate whether the different response to 100 μM ATP could be due to the presence of cADPR, intact CD38- cells were preincubated for 10 min with extracellular cADPR (50 μM), which was recently reported to be internalized by these cells through equilibrative and concentrative nucleoside transporters (Guida et al., 2002).

An incubation of 10 min proved to be sufficient to elicit maximal Ca2  responses to extracellular ATP, and therefore this time was routinely used in subsequent experiments. The observation that a time of minutes was sufficient for these responses to take place indicated that no long-term events downstream of the appearance of intracellular cADPR are causally involved in the Ca2  response to ATP observed in the cADPR-loaded CD38- cells (Fig. 2 A) or in the CD38-transfected fibroblasts (Fig. 1).

Next, we investigated a possible increase of the intracellular cADPR concentration in CD38  cells as a consequence of their pulse exposure to ATP. To this purpose, cells were incubated for 0, 10, and 30 s in the presence of 100 μM ATP; the intracellular concentrations of cADPR, however, were not significantly modified after this treatment, i.e., 43.21 ± 2.05, 40.11 ± 4.31, and 45.94 ± 2.45 pmol cADPR/mg protein (n = 3) after 0, 10, and 30 s of treatment, respectively.

It is well documented that 100 μM ATP evokes a calcium release from IP3-sensitive stores (Giovannardi et al., 1992; Di Virgilio et al., 2001). Therefore, CD38  3T3 cells were first incubated either with 2-APB, a membrane-permeant IP3 antagonist, or with U73212, a membrane-permeant inhibitor of PLC. As shown in Fig. 3 A, 2-APB (250 μM) completely abrogated the response to 100 μM ATP, whereas the response to 3 mM ATP was not impaired (not depicted). Thus, the use of 2-APB was instrumental for discriminating between the two different mechanisms that underlie the i increases after stimulation of the P2Y receptors (Ca2  release) and of the P2X receptors (Ca2  influx), respectively. Likewise, U73122 at 1 μM completely inhibited the Ca2  release triggered by 100 μM ATP, while the same concentration of the inactive analogue U73343 proved to be ineffective (Fig. 3 B).  d8 R/ @1 Z!

In an attempt to elucidate the mechanisms responsible for the difference in the ATP-stimulated global Ca2  signals between wild-type 3T3 cells and cells with increased cADPR contents (obtained either by extracellular addition of cADPR or by transfection with CD38), rapid confocal Ca2  imaging experiments were performed (Kunerth et al., 2003). Besides confirming the previous results, single cell Ca2  imaging clearly defined that the limited average response induced by extracellular ATP in CD38- 3T3 cells (Fig. 1) was due to a full response occurring in very few cells (2/23), with the same amplitude observed in CD38  cells. In contrast, most of the CD38  cells were responsive to ATP (17/20). This agrees with the earlier observation that in each individual wild-type 3T3 cell, the ATP-induced Ca2  rise occurs in an all-or-none fashion (Giovannardi et al., 1992). When the CD38- cells were preloaded with cADPR by incubation with 50 μM extracellular concentrations of this cyclic nucleotide, 60% of cells acquired the ability to respond to ATP (16/27). On the contrary, most CD38  cells, after preincubation with 100 μM 8-Br-cADPR, lost their responsiveness to ATP, and only in one third of these cells was the release evoked with the same amplitude (7/21).. i6 w2 B* T) S) @& m

Detailed analysis of high-resolution Ca2  images acquired under the four different conditions, (1) CD38- cells, (2) cADPR-loaded CD38- cells, (3) CD38- cells microinjected with ryanodine, and (4) CD38  cells, revealed fundamental differences in the spatio-temporal patterns of Ca2  signaling (Figs. 4 and 5). While CD38- cells showed a low i throughout the cell (Fig. 4 A, left), a slightly increased i was observed in unstimulated CD38- cells preincubated with cADPR (Fig. 4 B, left) or microinjected with ryanodine 15 min before (Fig. 4 C, left), or in CD38  cells (Fig. 4 D, left). Upon stimulation by ATP, only very small local Ca2  signals close to the plasma membrane were observed in the CD38- cells (Fig. 4 A, 117.9 s), whereas CD38- cells either preincubated with cADPR or microinjected with ryanodine, or CD38 transfectants, developed a rapid and global response that travelled across the whole cell as a regenerating wave (Fig. 4, B–D). In CD38- cells preincubated with cADPR or microinjected with ryanodine, and in CD38-transfectants, too, Ca2  waves started at specific hot-spots at the cell border and travelled toward the perinuclear region where a significant amplification occurred (Fig. 4, B–D). Interestingly, ryanodine receptors (RyRs) were localized in high density in the perinuclear region (not depicted), compatible with their involvement in the amplification process. Detailed analyses of i distribution in differently localized regions of interest (ROIs) in the cell further illustrated the patterns of wave propagation and amplification observed when cADPR was present in the cells, either after direct loading or in the CD38-expressing cells (Fig. 4 E). Microinjection of an activating concentration of ryanodine 15 min before addition of ATP mimicked the effect of both cADPR preloading or transfection of CD38 (Fig. 4, C and E), suggesting that cADPR indeed acts on the RyR.

For the onset of global Ca2  waves to occur, local subcellular Ca2  signals are required as pacemaker signals to initiate the global signal (Bootman et al., 1997; Meldolesi, 2002). Analysis of subcellular Ca2  signals before stimulation of P2Y receptors (basal condition) revealed a small increase in magnitude in CD38- cells previously loaded with cADPR or in CD38  cells, while microinjection of ryanodine 15 min before had no stimulatory effect (Table I).0 e( n0 A, Y1 D2 _$ X# @6 r. k

After stimulation with ATP, increasing pacemaker signals, localized in proximity of the plasma membrane and a few micrometers inside the cell, were rarely visible in CD38- cells (Fig. 5 A). In contrast, these signals were frequently present in the CD38- cells preloaded with cADPR (Fig. 5 B) or microinjected with ryanodine (Fig. 5 C), or in CD38  cells (Fig. 5 D). Time course analysis of characteristic pacemaker signals revealed increases in amplitude with time for the latter three conditions (Fig. 5, B–D vs. A), with the slope differing slightly between the three different conditions (Fig. 5, B–D). Quantitative analysis of the pacemaker signals resulted in a very small increase of the amplitude in CD38- cells upon stimulation by ATP (Table I), while in CD38- loaded with cADPR or microinjected with ryanodine 15 min before, significantly higher amplitudes upon ATP stimulation were observed (Table I). The latter values were similar to the ones obtained in CD38  cells upon P2Y receptor stimulation (Table I). Furthermore, the frequency of the pacemaker signals upon ATP stimulation increased significantly when CD38- cells were loaded with cADPR or microinjected with ryanodine (Table I). Interestingly, a similar frequency was observed in CD38- cells loaded with cADPR and in CD38  cells, while CD38- cells microinjected with ryanodine 15 min before showed an even more pronounced frequency (Table I). The spatial extension of the pacemaker signals revealed a remarkable similarity under all conditions with signal areas between 0.33 and 0.42 μm2 (Table I), indicating that in the basal phase and in the early pacemaker phase, an increased open probability of RyR, rather than rapid recruitment of further RyR, is the mechanism of signal amplification.5 ?5 |( z+ |/ y9 V4 x: q4 o' T

However, in the 3T3 wild-type cell line used in our study, the mean ATP-induced Ca2  signal was low (Fig. 1) and, when analyzed at the single cell level, it occurred only in a minority of cells in an all-or-none-fashion, as previously described (Giovannardi et al., 1992). Similar small Ca2  signals upon P2Y receptor ligation were also described for the mouse wild-type L-fibroblasts, but they were significantly enhanced by stable overexpression of type 1 IP3 receptor (IP3R) (Davis et al., 1999). These data indicate that a certain threshold of Ca2  signals generated by the purinoceptor-activated machinery of fibroblasts must be reached to produce global and high magnitude Ca2  signals, e.g., a global regenerating Ca2  wave.

In the present study, we pursued an alternative approach to shift the spatio-temporal Ca2  patterns toward a substantially greater response by triggering the cADPR/Ca2  signaling pathway. This was obtained in three experimental ways. First, extracellular cADPR was added to CD38- fibroblasts, which express in their plasma membrane both equilibrative and concentrative transporters previously demonstrated to also internalize cADPR (Guida et al., 2002). Second, an activating concentration of ryanodine was microinjected into CD38- fibroblasts 15 to 20 min before stimulation of P2Y receptors. Third, wild-type, constitutively CD38- 3T3 fibroblasts were transfected with human CD38 cDNA (Zocchi et al., 1998). Under these conditions, the CD38- cells acquired the property to respond to stimulation of P2Y receptors like the CD38 transfectants. However, IP3 generation is involved as a necessary initial event but is insufficient to trigger global Ca2  signaling.3 e4 W$ f# r) `! @

These findings confirm that cADPR, no matter whether being internalized from extracellular sites (Guida et al., 2002), or being generated at the outer surface of the same cell and then actively internalized by transmembrane CD38 (Franco et al., 1998), or being produced in intracellular vesicles and then extruded therefrom to the cytosol (Bruzzone et al., 2001), is in all cases able to access its target Ca2  stores. These mechanisms have been shown to functionally circumvent topological constraints related to compartmentalization of both NAD  and cADPR (for review see De Flora et al., 2002).

Furthermore, 3T3 murine fibroblasts proved to represent a profitable model to investigate functional interactions between IP3R and RyR, i.e., a cell type featuring "channel cross-talk" (Patel et al., 2001; Morgan and Galione, 2002). Enhanced activity of either of the two Ca2  release systems in fibroblasts by overexpression of type 1 IP3R (Davis et al., 1999) or by de novo inducing intracellular cADPR production (Zocchi et al., 1998; this study) resulted in an increased mean i in unstimulated cells. Analysis of the subcellular Ca2  distribution by confocal Ca2  imaging revealed the presence of localized Ca2  signals with increased Ca2  concentrations both in L-fibroblasts overexpressing the type 1 IP3R (Davis et al., 1999) and in the CD38- 3T3 cells either preincubated with cADPR or microinjected with ryanodine (Fig. 5; Table I)./ ~* j4 Q7 M, d.

# ~! A" L+ @" o+ }9 E) ^% gAnalysis of the subcellular Ca2  release events in 3T3 fibroblasts revealed amplitudes of 44–98 nM and areas of 0.33–0.42 μm2 (corresponding to diameters of 0.57 and 0.65 μm). These values are considerably smaller as compared with typical sparks (amplitude 71–300 nM, diameter 2–5 μm, for an extended list of references see Discussion section of Kunerth et al., 2003). However, so-called "fundamental" Ca2  signals produced by very few RyRs (possibly one) were described as Ca2  quarks in skeletal and cardiac muscle (Tsugorka et al., 1995; Lipp and Niggli, 1998). These Ca2  quarks were characterized by diameters between 0.3 and 0.85 μm and amplitudes of 40 nM (Tsugorka et al., 1995; Lipp and Niggli, 1998), values very similar to the ones described here. This indicates that the subcellular Ca2  release events observed under basal conditions and during the very early pacemaker phase in 3T3 cells are comparable to fundamental Ca2  quarks that have been observed so far only in excitable cells. Moreover, upon ATP stimulation, the quark-like early pacemaker signals were further increased in amplitude and in frequency, but not in diameter. This indicates that longer and more frequent opening of the RyR channel, but not recruitment of further channels, is the major mechanism for signal amplification by both cADPR and ryanodine in this early pacemaker phase.

- K/ g3 S, D  k. P  I9 rIn conclusion, it is of remarkable interest that a very similar phenotype, namely a global Ca2  wave upon P2Y receptor stimulation, could be obtained in fibroblasts either by enhancing the IP3/Ca2  signaling pathway (Davis et al., 1999) or by providing the cell with the cADPR/Ca2  signaling system (this study). As overexpression of different IP3R subtypes may increase or decrease dramatically upon certain conditions (Davis et al., 1999), the transition from local to global Ca2  signals related to increased density of IP3Rs can be of physiological significance.

Also, the cADPR/Ca2  signaling pathway is susceptible to be widely modulated in RyR-expressing cells. Relevant examples include (1) the massive expression of CD38 that is causally related to retinoic acid–induced granulocytic differentiation of HL60 cells (Munshi et al., 2002); (2) the increased concentrations of intracellular cADPR elicited by lipopolysaccharide in human blood mononuclear cells (Bruzzone et al., 2003); and (3) the delivery of extracellular cADPR by CD38  neighboring cells across various nucleoside transporters that allow cells negative for CD38, but positive for RyR, to feature cADPR-dependent Ca2  responses and increased Ca2 -mediated processes (for review see De Flora et al., 2002).

KIn conclusion, cADPR behaves as a paracrine messenger able to switch different cell types from low to high "excitability" (Franco et al., 2001a,b; Verderio et al., 2001; Zocchi et al., 2001). Our present findings indicate that in 3T3 fibroblasts, the underlying mechanism is the amplification of quark-like subcellular Ca2  signals by cADPR, both in the basal phase and in the early pacemaker phase.% }8 |4 E$ y% u6 W$ ~, p!

Cells were then washed twice with 200 μl of calcium buffer (135 mM NaCl, 5.4 mM KCl, 1.8 mM CaCl2, 1 mM MgCl2, 5 mM Hepes, pH 7.4), and 100 μl of the same buffer was added in each well. Calcium-free buffer was prepared without CaCl2 and with the addition of 2 mM EGTA. Fluorescence was measured every 2.12 s (excitation, 355 nm and 390 nm, alternatively; emission, 520 nm) using a fluorescence plate reader (Fluostar Optima; BMG Labtechnologies GmbH). The ratio of emitted light after excitation at 355 nm/390 nm was calculated and displayed as a function of time.

In brief, we used an Improvision imaging system at 100-fold magnification (Leica objective type HCX APO 100x/1.3 OIL U-V-I; numerical aperture 1.3) built around the Leica microscope at room temperature. Illumination at 340 and 380 nm was performed using a monochromator system (Polychromator IV; TILL Photonics). Images were taken with a gray-scale CCD camera (type C4742–95–12ER; operated in 8-bit mode; Hamamatsu). The optimal relation of spatial and temporal resolution for the ratiometric measurements was obtained using the spatial resolution of 512 x 640 pixel, resulting in a pixel size of 0.129 μm/pixel (at 100-fold magnification). The maximal acquisition rate was 160 msec for one ratio using Openlab software (v3.09; Improvision; Atherton et al., 1997). Raw data images were stored on hard disk. To obtain digital confocal images, mathematical deconvolution based on the point-spread function was performed using the no-neighbor algorithm (Openlab software, v1.7.8 and v3.0.9; Improvision; Atherton et al., 1997). The pinhole was set to 70% removal of stray light. After deconvolution of the raw data, confocal ratio images (340/380) were constructed pixel by pixel.

An Eppendorf microinjection system (transjector type 5246, micromanipulator type 5171) equipped with Femtotips II as pipettes was used. The system was operated in the semiautomatic mode with the following instrumental settings: injection pressure 40 hPa, compensatory pressure 30 hPa, injection time 0.5 s, and velocity of the pipette 600 μm/s. Ryanodine was diluted to its final concentration (100 μM) in intracellular buffer (20 mM Hepes, 110 mM KCl, 2 mM MgCl2, 5 mM KH2PO4, 10 mM NaCl, pH 7.2) and filtered (0.2 μm) before use. A volume amounting to 1% of the cell volume was injected, resulting in an intracellular ryanodine concentration of 1 μM. Upon ryanodine injection, the cells displayed increased i; thus, further stimulation by ATP was performed 15–20 min later, when i had returned to basal values., v2 V5 e2 `  K
