    Applications
    ORAI1 is a calcium channel protein that plays a role in various physiological functions. It is involved in osteoblast proliferation, as well as the prevention of tubular aggregate myopathy in mice through voluntary wheel running. ORAI1 also has implications in myocardial fibrosis in type-II diabetic rats, where the use of SKF96365, an inhibitor of calcium ion entry, can improve fibrosis. Additionally, ORAI1 is part of the store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) mechanism, which regulates calcium signaling in cancer cells. It is associated with cell proliferation, migration, metastasis, apoptosis, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition in various types of cancers. The functional studies of ORAI1 have been conducted through reconstitution into liposomes and investigating its interaction with STIM1, another calcium sensor protein.

    How does ORAI1 interact with AKAP79 and STIM1? Sep 03 2021

    chat Patrick Liam (Creative Biolabs Scientific Support)

    ORAI1 interacts transiently with AKAP79, while its interaction with STIM1 is more sustained, playing a crucial role in sustaining NFAT activation at endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane junctions. Sep 03 2021

    What is the role of ORAI1 in cytoplasmic fluidity during membrane blebbing? Aug 21 2023

    chat Patrick Liam (Creative Biolabs Scientific Support)

    ORAI1 signaling regulates cytoplasmic fluidity in cells undergoing membrane blebbing, which involves calcium concentration regulation in the blebs through the STIM-ORAI1 pathway. Aug 21 2023

    Published Data

    Fig.1 Knockdown of ORAI1 protects from GSH depletion.

    Protection from GSH depletion was achieved through knockdown of ORAI1. HT22S cells were subjected to transfection with two independent siRNAs targeting ORAI1, or a non-targeting control siRNA, followed by a 48-hour interval for cell survival experiments. Verification of successful knockdown was performed through immunoblot analysis, wherein membranes were simultaneously probed with antibodies against ORAI1 and actin, serving as the loading control, and subsequently analyzed using the Licor infrared imaging system. Survival experiments were carried out on siRNA-transfected cells, with glutamate or BSO being added 48 hours post-transfection, and viability quantified using the CTB reagent 16 hours after the addition of glutamate or BSO. The graphs depict the mean fluorescence±S.E.M. of 15 replicates obtained in three independent experiments, plotted against the concentration of glutamate or BSO.

    Research Highlights

    Tsujikawa, Shogo et al. "Regulation of neuropathic pain by microglial Orai1 channels." Science advances vol. 9,4 (2023): eade7002.
    Microglial activity in neuroinflammation associated with neuropathic pain lacks a full understanding of molecular checkpoints. A study delved into Orai1 channels' impact on microglial-mediated neuroinflammation following nerve injury. The results revealed that Orai1 deletion in microglia reduced Ca2+ signaling and the release of inflammatory cytokines induced by proalgesic agents. This deletion also curbed microglial proliferation, spinal cytokine levels, and heightened excitatory neurotransmission post-peripheral nerve injury, ultimately alleviating pain hyperalgesia in male mice. Intriguingly, this protective effect was not observed in female mice, highlighting a sexual dimorphism in Orai1's role in microglial reactivity and hyperalgesia during neuroinflammation linked to neuropathic pain.

    Tubular aggregate myopathy (TAM) is a genetic muscle disorder characterized by gradual muscle weakness, cramps, and myalgia. TAs, which are highly organized arrays of densely packed SR straight-tubes in muscle tissue, are a distinctive feature of TAM observed in muscle biopsies. This condition is caused by mutations in proteins responsible for coordinating store-operated Ca2+ entry, resulting in abnormal accumulation of TAs. TAM is inherited and presents as a key histopathological manifestation in affected individuals.
