Goyal R, Creel KD, Chavis E, Smith GD, Longo LD, Wilson SM. Maturation of intracellular calcium homeostasis in sheep pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells. Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 295: L905-L914, 2008. First published September 5, 2008; doi:10.1152/ajplung.00053.2008. - Cytosolic Ca2+ signaling dynamics are important to pulmonary arterial reactivity, and alterations are implicated in pulmonary vascular disorders. Yet, adaptations in cellular Ca2+ homeostasis and receptor-mediated Ca2+ signaling with maturation from fetal to adult life in pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) are not known. The present study tested the hypothesis that cytosolic Ca2+ homeostasis and receptor-generated Ca2+ signaling adapt with maturation in sheep PASMCs. Digitalized fluorescence microscopy was performed using isolated PASMCs from fetal and adult sheep that were loaded with the Ca2+ indicator fura 2. The results show that basal cytosolic and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ levels are attained before birth. Similarly, Ca2+ efflux pathways from the cytosol and basal as well as capacitative Ca2+ entry (CCE) are also developed before birth. However, receptor-mediated Ca2+ signaling adapts with maturation. Prominently, serotonin stimulation elicited Ca2+ elevations in very few fetal compared with adult PASMCs; in contrast, phenylephrine elevated Ca2+ in a similar percentage of fetal and adult PASMCs. Serotonin and phenylephrine elicited Ca2+ increases of a similar magnitude in reactive cells of fetus and adult, supporting the assertion that inositol trisphosphate signaling is intact. Caffeine and ATP elevated Ca2+ in equivalent numbers of fetal and adult PASMCs. However, the caffeine-induced cytosolic Ca2+ increase was significantly greater in fetal PASMCs, whereas the ATP-elicited increase was greater in adult cells. Overall, the results of this study demonstrate selective adaptations in receptor-mediated Ca2+ signaling, but not in cellular Ca2+ homeostasis.
