37Ca2+ Signaling
the cytosol from intracellular stores[12]. It was established many years ago that the initial secretory response
to stimulation with either ACh or CCK is independent
of extracellular Ca2+[13], whereas sustained secretion
is acutely dependent on external Ca2+ (Fig.4.1c). This is
explained by the limited capacity of the intracellular
Ca2+ stores and the fact that release of Ca2+ from stores
into the cytosol inevitably activates Ca2+ pumps in the
plasma membrane extruding Ca2+, so that after a
shorter or longer period of stimulation (depending on
the intensity of stimulation) the contents of the intracellular Ca2+ stores have been exported to the extracellular solution [14]. A reduction of [Ca2+] in the
intracellular stores activates a process known as storeoperated Ca2+ entry. A signal is transmitted from the
stores to the plasma membrane activating special Ca2+
channels (store-
operated channels) that allow Ca2+
entry[15]. It is this Ca
2+
entry process that sustains the
secretory response during prolonged stimulation, after
the stores have been emptied.
Ca2+ Signaling
It is well established that stimulation of acinar cells with
either ACh or CCK elicits a rise in [Ca2+]i (Fig.4.2). At
low, physiologically relevant, concentrations of neurotransmitter or hormone, the typical Ca2+ signal pattern
consists of repetitive [Ca2+]i spikes confined to the apical
(granular) pole, as originally shown in 1993 [17].
Increasing the stimulating agonist concentration causes
Ca2+ signal globalization, a process whereby a local Ca2+
signal initiated in the apical pole spreads as a wave from
the apex to the base of the cell (Fig.4.2).

Organelles Important for Ca2+
Homeostasis
Early work in the 1970s on Ca2+ transport in exocrine
glands indicated that ACh evokes Ca2+ signals in acinar
cells by causing release of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic
reticulum (ER)[7] but, for many years, the link between
ACh occupation of muscarinic receptors on the cell surface and the outflow of Ca2+ from the ER was obscure. In
1983, Irene Schulz and Michael Berridge discovered
that the intracellular water- soluble messenger inositol
1,4,5- trisphosphate (IP3), generated inside the cell by
receptor- activated phospholipase C action on a membrane
phospholipid, phosphatidylinositol 4,5- bisphosphate
(PIP2), releases Ca2+ from the ER in permeabilized pancreatic acinar cells[18]. All subsequent work on many different cell types confirmed the generality of the concept that
hormonerelease is mediated principally via IP3- evoked Ca2+ release
from the ER [7,19]. Although the original discovery of

cells[18], there are difficulties in applying this concept to
these particular cells. The problem is that the physiologically relevant Ca2+ signals occur specifically in the apical
granular pole (see Fig.4.2), which contains mostly ZG and
little ER. This difficulty was finally overcome by the results
of the so- called Ca2+ tunnel experiments, in which it could
be shown that Ca2+ taken up at the base of the cell into the
ER could diffuse easily in the ER lumen and reach the apex
via thin ER extensions penetrating deeply into the granular area between the ZGs (see Fig.4.3). Upon stimulation,
Ca2+ is released primarily from the ER elements in the apical pole due to the high concentration of ER Ca2+ release
channels specifically in this part of the cell (Fig.4.3)[20,22].
It was initially a surprise that cytosolic Ca2+ signals initiated in the apical pole could remain local in such a relatively small cell (~20 μm diameter). This could not be
easily understood before it was discovered that the mitochondria in the acinar cell are distributed in a very
specific manner [23]. The mitochondria are primarily

apical granular pole from the rest of the cell (see Figs4.2
and4.3). Due to their ability to take up Ca2+, the mitochondria function as a Ca2+ diffusion barrier, effectively
acting as a firewall preventing the spread of cytosolic
Ca2+ signals from the apical pole into the basal part of the
cell containing the nucleus (Fig.4.3). The nucleus is well
protected against Ca2+ signal invasion from the apical
pole, since there is an additional mitochondrial belt surrounding the nucleus (Fig.4.2). Finally, there is a concentration of mitochondria just beneath the plasma
membrane (Fig. 4.2). The general concept that has
emerged from studies of Ca2+ transport in the cytosol,
ER, and mitochondria is that Ca2+ moves easily in the ER
lumen, but with much more difficulty in the cytosol, due
to the barriers created by the mitochondria[7,24].
The fact that the physiologically most important Ca
2+
signals occur in the apical granular area has also
prompted interest in the possibility that Ca2+ could be
released from ZG and other acid pools in the apical pole.
In studies on isolated ZG, it was shown that both IP3 and
another Ca2+- releasing messenger, cyclic ADP- ribose
(cADPR, derived from NAD) can liberate Ca2+ stored in
this organelle (see Fig.4.4). It has been clear for a long
time that ACh causes intracellular Ca2+ release via generation of IP3, acting primarily on the ER. It is now
equally clear that CCK releases Ca2+ via generation of
NAADP [7,26,27] and that NAADP primarily acts on
acid stores (Fig. 4.4a). This may explain the somewhat
different Ca2+ signal patterns that can be generated by
CCK and ACh[28].
Mechanisms of Ca2+ Signal Generation
Figure4.4 illustrates some of the most important steps. As
already mentioned, there are two major signal transduction
pathways, one initiated by hormonal (CCK) stimulation
and the other by nervous (ACh) stimulation. CCK acts on
high- affinity CCK1 receptors in the basolateral plasma
membrane [29,30], whereas ACh acts on muscarinic M3
receptors, which are also localized predominantly in the
basolateral membrane[16]. With state- of- the- art imaging
technology, it is now possible to visualize some of the most
important signal transduction steps.
Figure4.5 demonstrates the ACh- elicited breakdown
of PIP2 in the basolateral membrane and the appearance
of the water- soluble Ca2+- releasing messenger IP3 in the
cytosol. The enzyme responsible for PIP2 breakdown,
phospholipase C, can in some cases be Ca2+ activated.
However, the experimental result shown in Fig.4.5 demonstrates that, at least in the pancreatic acinar cell, the
disappearance of PIP2 from the plasma membrane and
the appearance of IP3 in the cytosol are not secondary to
2+
Ca
signal generation, since a directly generated Ca2+
signal (via uncaging of Ca2+ in the cytosol) does not
induce these effects, whereas ACh does.
Direct infusion of IP3 into isolated cells elicits repetitive cytosolic Ca2+ spikes confined to the apical granular
pole (see Fig. 4.6), in this way mimicking the effect of
externally applied ACh (see Fig.4.2). The importance of
functional IP3 receptors (IP3R) for ACh- elicited Ca2+ signal generation and secretion in pancreatic acinar cells
has been demonstrated very clearly by knockout experiments, in which it was shown that knockout of either
type 2 or type 3 IP3R had very little effect, whereas double knockout of both these receptors abolished AChelicited Ca2+ signal generation as well as secretion[34].
This directly confirms earlier data in which it was shown
that intracellular infusion of the IP3R antagonist heparin
abolished both IP
- and ACh- elicited Ca2+ spiking[35].
3
NAADP is a real intracellular messenger for CCKinduced activation of pancreatic acinar cells. Work from
Galione’s group in Oxford shows that physiologic CCK
concentrations (1–10 pmol/L) evoke clear and dosedependent increases in the cellular NAADP concentration. This effect is specific for CCK, since ACh has no
effect on the NAADP level[26].
Intracellular infusion of NAADP, even at concentrations
much lower (nanomolar) than those needed to obtain
effects of IP3 or cADPR, elicits repetitive cytosolic Ca2+
spikes in the apical pole that look very similar to those
generated by IP3 and cADPR[32]. The NAADP receptor
has the interesting property that it can be inactivated by
relatively high (micromolar) intracellular NAADP concentrations. Using such selective inhibition of the NAADP
receptor, it has been shown that Ca2+ spiking evoked by
physiologic CCK concentrations (<10 pmol/L) is blocked
by a high intracellular NAADP concentration. This blocking effect is specific for the CCK response, since AChelicited Ca2+ spiking is unaffected[36]. Furthermore, the
NAADP antagonist Ned- 19 blocks CCK- elicited Ca2+
spiking, but has no effect on the action of ACh[27].
Although ACh and CCK initiate Ca2+ signaling via different pathways (see Fig.4.4a), these ultimately converge
and the measurable local apical Ca2+ transients are due
to positive and negative feedback interactions between
IP3R and RyR on the ER (Fig.4.4a). These Ca2+- mediated
positive and negative interactions are functionally
important. For example, a Ca2+ signal initiated by an
increase in the intracellular IP3 concentration will subsequently activate RyR, inducing further Ca2+ release. This
positive feed- forward effect explains the rising phase of
the cytosolic Ca2+ spike. However, at a higher level of
[Ca2+]i, a further [Ca2+]i rise inhibits opening of both
IP3R and RyR. This explains the falling phase of the
spike [7,37]. It has recently become clear that there is
another class of channel involved in intracellular Ca2+

is also very important for both physiology and pathology
to consider the overall cellular Ca2+ homeostasis, that is,
Ca2+ entry and exit. All cells have to be protected against
cellular Ca2+ overload, since it is well established that this
causes cell death [38]. The plasma membrane must
therefore be relatively impermeable to Ca
2+
and there
must be mechanisms for cellular Ca2+ extrusion. Ca2+
entry and exit across the plasma membrane of pancreatic
acinar cells is controlled by specific transport mechanisms. Unlike many electrically excitable cells (e.g., cardiac cells), the acinar cells do not possess functional Na
Ca2+ exchangers, so that the only mechanism for extruding Ca2+ across the plasma membrane is via the plasma
membrane Ca2+- activated ATPase (PMCA) [25]. This
pump is activated by increases in [Ca2+]i above the basal
level of 0.1 μmol/L, but has limited capacity. Interestingly,
this pump is not uniformly distributed over the plasma
membrane, but is specifically concentrated in the apical
plasma membrane and therefore extrudes Ca2+ principally into the acinar lumen (see Fig.4.7). The concentration of the pump in the apical membrane is functionally
important, since the principal intracellular Ca
sites are located in the apical pole (Figs4.2 and4.6), but
carries the risk that Ca2+ overload, due to inappropriate
Ca2+ entry across the basal membrane in pathologic conditions, cannot be dealt with adequately[25].
Physiologic stimulation of acinar cells does not primarily increase the permeability of the plasma membrane for Ca

short- lasting Ca2+ spikes localized specifically in the
critical apical region (Figs4.2 and4.6). These spikes are
essentially independent of external Ca2+ and are due to
repetitive release of small amounts of Ca2+ from the
ER[7,48].
Can the short- lasting local Ca2+ spikes, evoked by low
agonist concentrations or direct intracellular messenger
infusion, control secretion? The most sensitive method
for evaluating exocytotic secretion is measurement of
membrane capacitance. When granules fuse with the
plasma membrane, the surface area of the plasma membrane increases, but only transiently since the additional
membrane inserted is subsequently removed by the process of endocytosis. As shown in Fig.4.6 (inset), there is
indeed a transient increase in the pancreatic acinar membrane capacitance during an individual short- lasting

Ca2+- Mediated Control of Fluid
Secretion
How is acinar fluid secretion regulated? The generally
accepted model for isotonic fluid secretion by exocrine
glands is illustrated in Fig. 4.1a. The principal step for
activation of fluid secretion is Ca
Cl− channels, which are specifically located in the apical
plasma membrane[49]. This will cause Cl− exit into the
acinar lumen. The increased lumen negativity will attract
cations and the principal extracellular cation, Na+, will
move through the very leaky junctions between the acinar

cells, which are named (inappropriately!) tight junctions.
These junctions sit very close to the apical membrane and
separate the luminal fluid compartment from the basal
and interstitial compartments, and also separate the very
different properties of the apical and basolateral membranes (Fig.4.1a). NaCl in the acinar lumen will osmotically attract water, which can pass through both the cell
membranes (via aquaporins) and the tight junctions.
The principal activating step of acinar fluid secretion,
namely the exit of Cl− from the cell interior to the lumen
through Ca2+- activated Cl− channels, only occurs if there
is an electrochemical gradient favoring transport in this
direction. The intracellular Cl− concentration must be
held above thermodynamic equilibrium and a Cl−accumulating mechanism is therefore needed. As shown
in Fig. 4.1a, a Na+/K+/2Cl− cotransporter is situated in
the basolateral membrane (for graphical convenience
shown in Fig.4.1a only in the basal membrane). Energy
for this process comes from the transmembrane Na+ gradient established by the Na+/K+ pump, which is also situated in the basolateral membrane. Increased Cl− secretion
requires stimulation of the Na+ pump, which occurs via
the increased intracellular Na+ concentration mediated
by enhanced turnover of the Na+/K+/2Cl− cotransporter.
This in turn requires additional K+ cycling across the
plasma membrane, which is mediated by Ca2+ activation
of specific K+ channels situated in the basolateral membrane (Fig.4.1a).
As seen in Fig.4.1a, it is the concerted Ca2+ activation
of Cl− and K+ channels that controls the fluid secretion
process. It is important to understand that the whole of
the basolateral membrane is uniform with regard to distribution of surface membrane ion channels. Thus, the
Ca2+- activated K+ channels are found not only in thebasal
membrane as illustrated in Fig.4.1a, but also in the lateral membranes, up to the tight junctions. Therefore,
local apical Ca2+ signals will be able to activate both Cl−
channels in the apical membrane and K+ channels in the
part of the lateral membrane close to the tight junctions.
A limited amount of fluid secretion can proceed without
special activation of K
+
channels, since rodent pancreatic
acinar cells lack Ca2+- activated K+ channels [12]. If the
resting K+ permeability is sufficiently high, recirculation
of K+ can still occur. However, human pancreatic acinar
cells, like all salivary and lacrimal glands in all species so
far studied, do possess very sensitive Ca2+- activated K+
channels, which undoubtedly contribute to the fine regulation of human acinar fluid secretion[50]. In the human
acinar cells, these Cl
−
and K+ channels will be activated by
the short- lasting repetitive local Ca2+ signals in the secretory granule region, which have been directly demonstrated in response to stimulation with either ACh or
physiologic concentrations (low pM) of CCK[51].
Dangers of Ca2+ Signaling
As described in this chapter, local Ca2+ signaling elicited by physiologically relevant agonist concentrations
is a remarkably precise mechanism for fine regulation
of pancreatic acinar secretion (Fig.4.6). These Ca2+ signals also control the production of ATP (Fig.4.3), which
is required to fuel both fluid and enzyme secretion.
However, Ca2+ signaling carries a risk of cellular Ca2+
overload, which has the capacity to kill cells[7]. This
occurs when acinar cells are hyperstimulated with, for
example, CCK. In this situation Ca2+ spiking is replaced
by a sustained elevated [Ca2+]i which, by a still poorly
understood mechanism, activates the digestive proteases inside the cells [25]. The sustained elevated
[Ca2+]i is due to open CRAC channels and can be markedly reduced by CRAC channel inhibitors[7,41–43]. A
sustained elevated [Ca
lasting Ca2+ spikes, does not stimulate mitochondrial
ATP production, but inhibits it[52]. The combination
of a global and sustained high [Ca2+]i with a low cytosolic ATP level is lethal[7,53].
Intracellular digestive enzyme activation is a hallmark of pancreatitis, which is mostly related to biliary
disease or excessive alcohol intake. Both bile- related
and alcohol- related acute pancreatitis are due to cytosolic and mitochondrial Ca2+ overload, which have
been brought about by excessive opening of CRAC
channels in the plasma membrane triggered by excessive release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores[7]. Both
bile acids and the combination of ethanol and fatty
acids (generating fatty acid ethyl esters) have the capacity to elicit excessive release of Ca2+ from intracellular
stores[7]. The cytosolic Ca2+ overload leads to mitochondrial Ca2+ overload, which causes opening of the
so- called mitochondrial permeability transition pore
(MPTP) and this depolarizes the inner mitochondrial
membrane resulting in loss of ATP production[7,46,52].
The dangerous effects of bile acids or fatty acid ethyl
esters can be markedly inhibited by reducing the intracellular Ca
2+
release via caffeine inhibition of IP3 receptors[35,54], by reducing Ca2+ inflow via CRAC channels
using specific CRAC channel inhibitors[7,41–43] or by
inhibiting the MPTP [55]. The pancreatic acinar cell
lives dangerously. It very effectively employs Ca2+ signaling as a finely coordinated mechanism for regulation
of both fluid and enzyme secretion, but excessive intracellular Ca2+ release or Ca2+ entry has the capacity to
cause necrosis.
The Ca2+- mediated toxic actions on the acinar cells,
initiated by bile acids or the combination of ethanol and
fatty acids, are markedly amplified by interactions
with the neighboring stellate cells as well as with the

influx in these three cell types through CRAC channels
macrophages that invade the pancreatic tissue in the
early stages of acute pancreatitis (Fig.4.8). Loss of kallikrein from the acinar cells that are most sensitive to
the toxic actions will lead to generation of bradykinin
(BK), which then acts on type 2 BK receptors on stellate
cells, releasing Ca2+ from internal stores that in turn
opens CRAC channels. The generation of Ca2+ signals
in the stellate cells activates nitric oxide formation[6],
which, via an unknown mechanism, promotes necrosis
of the acinar cells, starting a vicious circle (Fig. 4.8).
ATP and ADP released from dying acinar cells act on
purinergic receptors on macrophages generating Ca2+
signals in these cells due to activation of CRAC channels[44]. This stimulates secretion of many cytokines,
including interleukins and TNF- α, which in turn causes
further necrosis of the acinar cells (Fig.4.8). It is therefore these necrotic amplification loops, dependent on
Ca2+ influx through CRAC channels that drive the
development of acute pancreatitis (Fig.4.8). The therapeutic and preventive effects of small molecule CRAC
channel inhibitors[41–43] are therefore not only due to
reduction of Ca2+ influx into acinar cells, but also due
to inhibition of CRAC channel opening in the neighboring stellate cells and macrophages[4,7,44,45].
