    Role of TRP domains in regulation of TRPC3 and TRPC6 by Epo-R. HEK 293T cells were transfected with BFP-TRPC3, BFP-TRPC6, BFP-TRPC3-C6TRP, or BFP-TRPC6-C3TRP chimeras and Epo-R. Fura Red-loaded cells were treated with 40 units/ml Epo. To quantitate [Ca2+]i, F440/F490 was measured at base line and by monitoring over 20 min after Epo stimulation.

To quantitate [Ca2+]i, F440/F490 was measured at base line and by monitoring over 20 min after Epo stimulation. Shown is the percentage increase in F440/F490 above base line (mean ± S.E. (error bars) percentage increase) = peak F440/F490 divided by base line F440/F490 × 100% − 100% (base line). The numbers of individual cells studied were as follows: BFP-TRPC3 (PBS 17, Epo 21), BFP-TRPC6 (PBS 17, Epo 22), BFP-TRPC3-C6TRP (PBS 16, Epo 22), or BFP-TRPC6-C3TRP (PBS 18, Epo 21). The Epo-stimulated increase in cells expressing TRPC6 and Epo-R is not statistically different from cells expressing Epo-R alone and is thought to be secondary to Epo-R activation of low levels of endogenous channels (17). *, significantly greater percentage increase in F440/F490 compared with Epo-stimulated cells expressing wild type TRPC6 (p < 0.001). **, significantly less percentage increase in F440/F490 compared with Epo-stimulated cells expressing wild type TRPC3 (p < 0.001).

    Plasma membrane insertion of TRPC3/TRPC6 chimeras detected with cell surface biotinylation. HEK 293T cells transfected (Tx'd) with Epo-R and V5-TRPC3, V5-TRPC3-C6TRP, V5-TRPC6, V5-TRPC6-C3TRP, V5-TRPC6-C3C2, V5-TRPC6-C3TRP-C3C2, or V5-TRPC6-C3TRP-C3 741–748 were stimulated with 0–40 units/ml Epo for 0–5 min. Biotinylation of cell surface proteins was performed, and V5-tagged proteins were immunoprecipitated (IP) from lysates with anti-V5 antibody. Western blots (WB) of immunoprecipitates were probed with streptavidin-HRP to detect biotinylated protein and then stripped and reprobed with anti-V5-HRP to detect total protein. Representative results of Western blots from three experiments are shown. Biotinylated and total protein bands were quantitated with densitometry, and the ratio was normalized to time 0. The mean ± S.E. (error bars) values of the biotinylated/total protein ratios from three experiments after 5 min of stimulation are shown. *, significant difference in the ratio compared with time 0 (p < 0.05).

    Subcellular localization of TRPC3, TRPC6, TRPC3/TRPC6 chimeras, PLCγ, and Epo-R. A, proteins from HEK 293T cells transfected with FLAG-TRPC3, FLAG-TRPC3-C6TRP, FLAG-TRPC6, FLAG-TRPC6-C3TRP-C3C2, and Epo-R were fractionated, purified, and analyzed by Western blotting (WB). Transfected FLAG-tagged constructs were detected by probing with anti-FLAG antibody. Transfected Epo-R was detected with anti-Epo-R antibody, and endogenous PLCγ was detected with anti-PLCγ antibody. Results from four fractionation experiments using FLAG-tagged constructs and two experiments using V5-tagged constructs were similar, and representative results with FLAG constructs are shown. B, representative results showing quality of fractionation by probing Western blots with anti-GAPDH, anti-Na+K+-ATPase, anti-lamin, and anti-vimentin (markers for cytosol, membrane, nuclear, and cytoskeletal fractions, respectively).
