Overexpression of SOCE components alters Ca2+ homeostasis. (A) Expression of hStim1-YFP+hOrai1-mRFP increased Ca2+ influx in both GV and MII cells after TG and CaCl2 add-back, although the increase was greater and more prolonged in GV oocytes. Expression of hStim1-YFP also increased Ca2+ influx in both GV and MII stages but to a lesser extent, whereas hOrai1 had no effect. (B) Expression of hStim1 or hStim1+hOrai1 differentially increased basal [Ca2+]i during maturation. Baseline [Ca2+]i traces in control (top, left), hStim1-YFP–expressing (top, right), hStim1-YFP+hOrai1-mRFP–expressing (bottom, left), and D76A hStim1-YFP+ hOrai1-mRFP–expressing (bottom, right) oocytes. Insets in each treatment depict a magnified version of the y-axis at the 0.1 mark so that minor differences in basal [Ca2+]i between GV and MII stages can be appreciated for some of the treatments.
