Aluminum is a weak agonist for the calcium-sensing receptor.BackgroundAluminum (Al3+) has diverse biological effects mediated through activation of a putative extracellular cation-sensing receptor. A recently identified calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR), which has been identified in target tissues for Al3+, may transduce some of the biological effects of Al3+.MethodsTo test this possibility, we transfected human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK 293) cells with a cDNA encoding the rat CaSR and evaluated CaSR expression by Western blot analysis and function by measurement of intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) levels and inositol monophosphate (IP1) generation following stimulation with Al3+and a panel of CaSR agonists.ResultsThe CaSR protein was detected by immunoblot analysis in cells transfected with the CaSR cDNA but not in nontransfected HEK 293 cells. In addition, [Ca2+]ilevels and IP1 generation were enhanced in a dose-dependent fashion by additions of the CaSR agonists calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), gadolinium (Gd3+), and neomycin only in cells transfected with CaSR. To determine if Al3+activated CaSR, we stimulated cells transfected with rat CaSR with 10 μmto 1 mmconcentrations of Al3+. Concentrations of Al3+in the range of 10 μmto 100 μmhad no effect on [Ca2+]ilevels or IP1 generation. In contrast, 1 mmAl3+induced small but significant increases in both parameters. Whereas Gd3+antagonized calcium-mediated activation of CaSR, pretreatment with Al3+failed to block subsequent activation of rat CaSR by Ca2+, suggesting a distinct mechanism of Al3+action.ConclusionAl3+is not a potent agonist for CaSR. Because Al3+affects a variety of target tissues at micromolar concentrations, it seems unlikely that CaSR mediates these cellular actions of Al3+.
