Colon cancer cells, like other types of cancer cells, undergo the remodeling of the intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis that contributes to cancer cell hallmarks including enhanced cell proliferation, migration, and survival. Colon cancer cells display enhanced store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) compared with their non-cancer counterparts. Colon cancer cells display an abnormal expression of SOCE molecular players including Orai1 and TRPC1 channels, and the stromal interacting molecule (STIM) 1 and 2. Interestingly, upregulation of Orai1 and TRPC1 channels and their contribution to SOCE are associated with cancer malignancy in colon cancer cells. In a specific cellular model of colon cancer, whereas in non-cancer colon cells SOCE is composed of the Ca2+ release activated (CRAC) currents, in colon cancer cells SOCE is composed of CRAC- and cationic, non-selective store operated (SOC) currents. Former SOCs are mediated by TRPC1 channels. Moreover, colon cancer cells also display dysregulation of the expression of 1,4,5-triphosphate receptors (IP3R) that could contribute to the enhanced SOCE. Another important factor underlying the enhanced SOCE is the differential mitochondrial modulation of the CRAC and SOC currents in non-cancer and colon cancer cells. In colon cancer cells, mitochondria take up more Ca2+ that prevent the Ca2+-dependent inactivation of the SOCs, leading to sustained Ca2+ entry. Notably, the inhibition of SOCE in cancer colon cells abolishes their cancer hallmarks. Robust evidence has shown the efficiency of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) to reverse the enhanced cell proliferation, migration, and apoptosis resistance of cancer cells. In colon cancer cells, both NSAIDs and DFMO decrease SOCE, but they target different molecular components of SOCE. NSAIDs decrease the Ca2+ uptake by mitochondria, limiting their ability to prevent the Ca2+-dependent inactivation of the SOCs that underlie SOCE. On the other hand, DFMO inhibits the expression of TRPC1 channels in colon cancer cells, eliminating their contribution to SOCE. The identification of players of SOCE in colon cancer cells may help to better understand the remodeling of the Ca2+ homeostasis in cancer. Importantly, the use of different pharmacological tools that target different SOCE molecular players in colon cancer cells may play a pivotal role in designing better chemoprevention strategies.
