From the To maintain Ca2+ entry during T
lymphocyte activation, a balancing efflux of cations is necessary.
Using three approaches, we demonstrate that this cation efflux is
mediated by Ca2+-activated K+ (KCa)
channels, hSKCa2 in the human leukemic T cell line Jurkat and hIKCa1 in mitogen-activated human T cells. First,
several recently developed, selective and potent pharmacological
inhibitors of KCa channels but not KV channels
reduce Ca2+ entry in Jurkat and in mitogen-activated human
T cells. Second, dominant-negative suppression of the native
KCa channel in Jurkat T cells by overexpression of a
truncated fragment of the cloned hSKCa2 channel decreases
Ca2+ influx. Finally, introduction of the
hIKCa1 channel into Jurkat T cells maintains rapid
Ca2+ entry despite pharmacological inhibition of the native
small conductance KCa channel. Thus, KCa
channels play a vital role in T cell Ca2+ signaling.
