Temperature-Dependent

Increases in cytosolic [Ca2+] evoked by trains
of action potentials (20-100 Hz) were recorded from mouse and lizard
motor nerve terminals filled with a low-affinity fluorescent indicator,
Oregon Green BAPTA 5N. In mouse terminals at near-physiological
temperatures (30-38°C), trains of action potentials at 25-100 Hz
elicited increases in cytosolic [Ca2+] that
stabilized at plateau levels that increased with stimulation frequency.
Depolarization of mitochondria with carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) or antimycin A1
caused cytosolic [Ca2+] to rise to much higher
levels during stimulation. Thus, mitochondrial Ca2+
uptake contributes importantly to limiting the rise of cytosolic [Ca2+] during repetitive stimulation.
In mouse terminals, the stimulation-induced increase in cytosolic
[Ca2+] was highly temperature-dependent over the
range 18-38°C, with greater increases at lower temperatures. At the
lower temperatures, application of CCCP continued to depolarize
mitochondria but produced a much smaller increase in the cytosolic
[Ca2+] transient evoked by repetitive stimulation.
This result suggests that the larger amplitude of the
stimulation-induced cytosolic [Ca2+] transient at
lower temperatures was attributable in part to reduced
mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake.
In contrast, the stimulation-induced increases in cytosolic
[Ca2+] measured in lizard motor terminals showed
little or no temperature-dependence over the range 18-33°C.
