Cell-cycle calcium transients driven by cyclic changes in inositol trisphosphate levels

Abstract: Transient changes in intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) have been shown to punctuate the cell cycle in various types of cells in culture and in early embryos. The [Ca2+]i transients are correlated with cell-cycle events: pronuclear migration, nuclear envelope breakdown, the metaphase-anaphase transition of mitosis, and cytokinesis. Mitotic events can be induced by injecting calcium and prevented by injecting calcium chelators into the sea urchin embryo. Cell-cycle calcium transients differ from the transients lin… Show more

“…The overall reduction of I CRAC and relative low abundance of MagNuM in mitotic cells indicates that Ca 2+ influx plays a minor role during mitosis. This is in agreement with the observation that changes in intracellular Ca 2+ levels during mitosis are predominantly due to InsP 3 -induced Ca 2+ release but not influx [13,19,57].…”

“…The significance of this machinery within the nucleus has long been a question. Both growth factors (12) and integrins (36) InsP3 (16,37), plus temporally related increases in Ca 2ϩ in the perinuclear region (26,38,39), have been associated with breakdown of the nuclear envelope and entry into mitosis. In addition, nuclear Ca 2ϩ activates transcription factors such as CREB (9,11), Elk-1 (10), and DREAM (40), but cytosolic Ca 2ϩ activates other transcription factors such as SRE (9), plus phosphatases such as calcineurin that are important for transcription (41).…”

“…The events of fertilization may be directly or indirectly due to phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2)' breakdown to inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and sn-1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG; Turner et al, 1984;Whitaker and Irvine, 1984;Kamel et al, 1985;LePeuch et al, 1985;Ciapa et al, 1992, Stith et al, 1993Ciapa et al, 1994). A sperm-induced increase in IP3 and intracellular calcium ([Ca2+I1) are thought to be responsible for fertilization events such as membrane depolarization, cortical granule breakdown, intracellular pH increase, and the induction of other developmental events (for Xenopus, Busa et al, 1985a,b; Kline, 1988;Grandin and Charbonneau, 1992).…”
