- W45572903 abstract "Event Abstract Back to Event Study of calpain activity with calcium-independent activator and specific substrate Dávid Czégé1*, A. Farkas2, Katalin Halasy3, K. Tarnok1, P. Friedrich2 and Ildiko Vilagi1 1 Department of Physiology and Neurobiology, Eötvös Loránd University, Hungary 2 Institute of Enzimology, BRC, Hungarian Academy of Science, Hungary 3 Department of Anatomy and Histology, Faculty of Veterinary Science, Szent István, Hungary Calpains, the cytoplasmic Ca2+-activated proteases, have been suggested to play an important role in several physiological and pathological neuronal processes. Earlier we have shown that mixture of A and C subdomains of calpastatin, the specific endogenous inhibitor, in vitro activates calpains in a Ca2+-independent way. We hypothesized this complex may have similar effects in actual biological systems. Our aim was to prove that the calpastatin-derived peptides cross the neuronal membrane and specifically activate calpain, and exert an effect on synaptic level. During this activation no other Ca2+-dependent cytoplasmic processes are triggered. We also made effort to verify that calpains are activated during pathophysiological processes, like epileptiform seizures. Experiments were performed on hippocampal rat brain slices. In the electrophysiological experiments alterations in population spike activities in CA1 region were recorded. In morphological experiments, using different fluorophores, the uptake of the activators and enhancement of calpain activity were demonstrated. We showed that the A and C complex get through the membrane and act as a specific activator of calpain, using a calpain-specific substrate. Entrance of the complex increase neuronal excitability without significant effect on LTP development. We also found that epileptiform activity, without severe cell-damage, were able to induce only weak calpain activation. We propose that the activator complex can be used to specifically activate the calpain system apparently without raising cytoplasmic Ca2+ and clarify the cell types with sensitive calpain system. Such an effector may be a useful tool in dissecting intracellular mechanisms involving cellular processes activated by the calpain system.
