Biological actions and mechanism of action of calbindin in the process of apoptosis

Abstract

Although it was originally proposed that the major role of calbindin is to facilitate the vitamin D dependent movement of calcium through the cytosolic compartment of the intestinal or renal cell, we found that calbindin also has a major role in different cell types in protecting against apoptotic cell death. Calbindin, which buffers calcium, can inhibit apoptosis induced by different proapoptotic stimuli. Expression of calbindin-D(28k) in neural cell suppressed the proapoptotic actions of presenilin-1, which is causally linked to familial Alzheimer's disease, by preventing calcium mediated mitochondrial damage and the subsequent release of cytochrome c. Calbindin, by buffering intracellular calcium can also protect HEK 293 kidney cells from parathyroid hormone induced apoptosis that was found to be mediated by a phospholipase C dependent increase in intracellular calcium. In addition, cytokine mediated destruction of pancreatic beta cells can be prevented by calbindin. Induction by cytokines of nitric oxide, peroxynitrite and lipid hydroperoxide production was significantly decreased in calbindin expressing beta cells. Thus, calbindin-D(28k), by inhibiting free radical formation, can protect islet beta cells from autoimmune de...Continue Reading

Calcium & Bioenergetics

Bioenergetic processes, including cellular respiration and photosynthesis, concern the transformation of energy by cells. Here is the latest research on the role of calcium in bioenergetics.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
