Intracellular ATP suppresses TRPV4 currents in cECs.

(A) Representative traces of TRPV4 currents recorded from freshly isolated cECs using voltage ramps (−100 to 100 mV, from a holding potential −50 mV; inset) and different patch-clamp configurations before (black) and after (blue) the application of 100 nM GSK101 and 1 µM RuR. Top: Currents recorded in the perforated whole-cell configuration. Middle: Currents recorded in the conventional whole-cell configuration (dialyzed cytoplasm, 1 mM Mg-ATP in the pipette solution). Bottom: Currents recorded in the conventional whole-cell configuration (0 mM Mg-ATP in the pipette solution) developed gradually over ~4 min. (B) Current-voltage relationship (top) and summary data (bottom left) of currents recorded before (control) and after the cumulative application of GSK101 (100 nM)+RuR (1 µM) followed by HC-067047 (1 µM) (means ± SEM, ***p<0.001, unpaired Student’s t-test; n = 5 each). Bottom right: Individual-value plot of peak outward GSK101 (100 nM)-induced currents in cECs isolated from brains of C57Bl/6 (n = 25) or TRPV4-/- (n = 6) mice. A minimum duration of ~5 min after the application of GSK101 was allowed for outward TRPV4 current to develop in each cEC. Data are presented as means ± SEM (***p<0.001, unpaired Student’s t-test). (C) Individual-value plot of peak outward currents recorded at 100 mV before and after the application of GSK101 (100 nM) onto cECs dialyzed with 0 or 1 mM Mg-ATP in the pipette solution. Individual data points are shown together with means (column bars) and SEM (error bars). (D) Representative traces (left) and summary individual-value plot (right) of TRPV4 single-channel activity. Single-channel openings of TRPV4 channels were recorded as outward quantal K+ currents from cECs in the absence of GSK101 (conventional whole-cell configuration; holding potential, +50 mV; sampling rate, 20 kHz; low-pass filter frequency, 1 kHz; average recording time for each data point, 6 min). cECs were dialyzed with 0 mM (n = 13) or 1 mM (n = 16) Mg-ATP. One group of cECs dialyzed with 0 mM Mg-ATP was treated with 1 µM HC-067047 (n = 5). Data are presented as means (column bars) ± SEM (error bars; *p<0.05, ***p<0.001, one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test).

Intracellular ATP suppresses TRPV4 activity in cECs.

(A) GSK101 concentration-response curve. Currents were measured at 100 mV using the conventional whole-cell configuration in cECs in the presence of 1 µM RuR. cECs were dialyzed with 0 or 1 mM Mg-ATP in the pipette solution and GSK101-evoked currents developed over ~5 min.

PGE2 simultaneously and reciprocally regulates TRPV4 and Kir2.1 channel activities.

(A) Representative traces illustrate simultaneous recordings of Kir2.1 (inward) and TRPV4 (outward) currents in a cEC obtained using the perforated whole-cell configuration. Voltage ramps (300 ms, −140 to 100 mV) were used and the cEC was bathed in a 60 mM [K+]o solution supplemented with 2 µM GSK101 and 1 µM RuR. Traces represent currents before and for a duration of 15 min after the application of 2 µM PGE2. (B) Averaged current-voltage relationship (n = 5 cECs) corresponding to the experiment in A, before (control) and after (maximum changes at 15 min) application of PGE2. (C) Summary data showing the kinetics of TRPV4 current enhancement (black) and Kir2.1 current decline (red) following application of 2 µM PGE2 onto cECs (as in A) at room temperature. Points are average percentage change in normalized currents before and over 15 min after PGE2 application (n = 5). Curves are best fits of exponential change (rise: TRPV4; decay: Kir2.1). Inset table: kinetic parameters based on the two curve fits. Changes in currents plateaued ~13 min after the application of PGE2.

Cartoon representation of GqPCR-mediated reciprocal effects on capillary ion channel activity.

Schematic diagram summarizing the proposed mechanism. Top: In the absence of GqPCR stimulation, endogenous PIP2 levels are sufficient to tonically inhibit TRPV4 channels and maintain Kir2.1 channel activity. Bottom: GqPCR activation with an agonist stimulates PIP2 hydrolysis, resulting in the loss of PIP2-mediated maintenance of Kir2.1 activity and inhibition of TRPV4 activity.
