چکیده انگلیسی
Melittin, a peptide from bee venom, is thought to be a phospholipase A2 activator and Ca2+ influx inducer that can evoke cell death in different cell types. However, the effect of melittin on cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) and viability has not been explored in human osteoblast-like cells. This study examined whether melittin altered [Ca2+]i and killed cells in MG63 human osteosarcoma cells. [Ca2+]i changes and cell viability were measured by using the fluorescent dyes fura-2 and WST-1, respectively. Melittin at concentrations above 0.075 μM increased [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner. The Ca2+ signal was abolished by removing extracellular Ca2+. Melittin-induced Ca2+ entry was confirmed by Mn2+ quenching of fura-2 fluorescence at 360 nm excitation wavelength which was Ca2+-insensitive. The melittin-induced Ca2+ influx was unchanged by modulation of protein kinase-C activity with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and GF 109203X, or inhibition of phospholipase A2 with AACOCF3 and aristolochic acid; but was substantially inhibited by blocking L-type Ca2+ channels. At concentrations of 0.5 μM and 1 μM, melittin killed 33% and 45% of cells, respectively, via inducing apoptosis. Lower concentrations of melittin failed to kill cells. The cytotoxic effect of 1 μM melittin was completely reversed by pre-chelating cytosolic Ca2+ with BAPTA. Taken together, these data showed that in MG63 cells, melittin induced a [Ca2+]i increase by causing Ca2+ entry through L-type Ca2+ channels in a manner independent of protein kinase-C and phospholipase A2 activity; and this [Ca2+]i increase subsequently caused apoptosis.
