The filling state of the intracellular Ca2+ stores of rat thymocytes regulates plasma membrane permeability to Mn2+, used here as a Ca2+ surrogate for plasma membrane Ca2+ channels. Emptying of the Ca2+ stores accelerated Mn2+ entry about 10-fold, and refilling with Ca2+ restored low Mn2+ permeability. The acceleration of Mn2+ entry observed in cells with empty intracellular Ca2+ stores was prevented by cytochrome P450 inhibitors. Imidazole antimycotics, especially econazole and miconazole, were the most potent inhibitors (IC50 approximately equal to 10(-6) M). The inhibitor sensitivity profile was similar to IA-type cytochrome P450. Calmodulin antagonists increased the plasma membrane permeability to Mn2+ in cells with filled Ca2+ stores, and this effect was also blocked by imidazole antimycotics. On this basis, we propose a model in which activation of a cytochrome P450, situated at the Ca2+ stores, opens a plasma membrane Ca2+ pathway. This activity would be inhibited by Ca2+ inside the stores by a calmodulin-dependent mechanism.
