摘要

Peripheral sensory nerve terminals (PSNTs) have a dual function: reporting normal and abnormal sensations and releasing trophic factors to maintain the structure and function of epithelial cells. Although it is widely considered that intracellular Ca2+ plays a critical signaling role for both functions, the role of Ca2+ signaling has never been studied in PSNTs, primarily because of their small size and anatomical inaccessibility. Here, using epifluoresence microscopy and a fluorescent Ca2+ indicator, we report that action potentials or chemical irritation can elicit transient rises in [Ca2+]i (Ca2+ transients) in PSNTs within the corneal epithelium of the rat. In vitro electrical stimulation of the ciliary nerves in the eye, or electrical field stimulation of the cornea, evoked Ca2+ transients with a magnitude that was proportional to the number of stimuli applied over the range of 1-10 stimuli. Ca2+ transients were significantly blocked by 1 mm lidocaine, 4.1 microm saxitoxin (STX), or L-type Ca2+ channel antagonists (1 mm diltiazem or 20 microm nifedipine). The nociceptive agonist capsaicin (1 microm) elicited Ca2+ transients in all nerve terminals studied. Capsaicin-evoked Ca2+ transients were completely blocked by the vanilloid receptor 1 antagonist capsazepine (100 microm). In contrast, capsaicin-evoked Ca2+ transients were not attenuated by preincubation with 4.1 microm STX or 20 microm nifedipine. These findings demonstrate, for the first time, that nerve impulses or chemical stimulation promote Ca2+ entry into PSNTs, including nociceptors.
