タイトル Ca(2+) influx through P2X receptors induces actin cytoskeleton reorganization by the formation of cofilin rods in neurites.
ジャーナル Mol Cell Neurosci
Abstract In physiological and pathological events, extracellular ATP plays an important role by controlling several types of purinergic receptors and changing cytoskeleton dynamics. To know the process of ATP-dependent cytoskeleton remodeling, we focused on cofilin, a key regulator of actin cytoskeleton, and investigated the dynamics of cofilin in PC12 cells through fluorescent protein-labeled cofilin and actin, Ca(2+) imaging, and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) techniques. As a result, ATP induced intracellular Ca(2+) increase, following cofilin rods' formation. ATP-induced cofilin rods' formation was not observed in cells expressing unphosphorylatable variant of cofilin. A P2X receptor agonist, but not P2Y, induced the formation of cofilin rods, whereas calmodulin and calcineurin inhibitors suppressed it. These results indicate that Ca(2+) influx through P2X receptors induces the formation of cofilin rods via calcineurin-dependent dephosphorylation of cofilin. This pathway might be one candidate to explain the effects of ATP on neuronal development and injury.
