Optogenetic control of endogenous Ca2+ channels in vivo

Abstract: Calcium (Ca(2+)) signals that are precisely modulated in space and time mediate a myriad of cellular processes, including contraction, excitation, growth, differentiation and apoptosis. However, study of Ca(2+) responses has been hampered by technological limitations of existing Ca(2+)-modulating tools. Here we present OptoSTIM1, an optogenetic tool for manipulating intracellular Ca(2+) levels through activation of Ca(2+)-selective endogenous Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels. Using OptoSTIM1, wh… Show more

“…In a similar manner, light-induced plasma membrane translocation of specific phospholipid kinase and phosphatase domains has been demonstrated to modulate endocytosis and actin dynamics (38, 56, 8688). A particularly unique application of optogenetic plasma membrane recruitment is the control of calcium (Ca2+) influx (8991), which has been used to study memory formation in the mouse hippocampus (91). In an optogenetic strategy similar to CLICR (65), light-induced oligomerization of Cry2-fused STIM1 activated the endogenous CRAC calcium channel family and stimulated an intracellular calcium influx.…”

“…The role of STIM1 in control of neuronal L-type Ca 2+ channel activity [10] and feedback regulation of Ca 2+ signals in presynaptic terminals was reported [11]. Using optically controlled construct OptoSTIM1, Kyung et al demonstrated that expression and activation of this construct in mouse hippocampus is able to induce nSOC Ca 2+ influx and promote contextual memory formation [12]. Majewski et al observed improvements of contextual learning in STIM1 overexpressing mice [13].…”

“…Observed discrepancies are likely to be caused by differences in experimental models and protocols. Nevertheless, learning and synaptic plasticity phenotypes observed in STIM1 and STIM2 knockout and overexpression models [12][13][14]16] suggest that these proteins clearly play a role in neuronal function. It is likely that the main role of nSOC in neurons is signaling and not just refilling of the stores [23].…”
