The protein kinase Akt participates in such important functions of endothelial cells as nitric oxide production and angiogenesis, activities that involve changes in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration. However, it is not known if activation of Akt is itself involved in the regulation of Ca2+ signals produced in these cells. The objective of this study was to examine if Akt is involved in the regulation of Ca2+ signaling in endothelial cells. Agonist-stimulated Ca2+ signals, assessed using fura-2, were compared in porcine aortic endothelial cells under control conditions or conditions in which Akt was blocked either by different inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3 kinase)/Akt or by transient expression of a dominant-negative form of Akt (dnAkt). We found that the release of intracellular Ca2+ stores stimulated by bradykinin or thapsigargin is not affected by the PI3 kinase inhibitors LY294002 and wortmannin, or by expression of dnAkt. LY294002 dose-dependently inhibits store-operated Ca2+ entry, an effect not seen with wortmannin. Expression of dnAkt has no effect on store-operated Ca2+ entry. We conclude that Akt is not involved in the regulation of agonist-stimulated Ca2+ signals in endothelial cells. The compound LY294002 inhibits store-operated Ca2+ entry in these cells by a mechanism independent of PI3 kinase/Akt inhibition.
