Immune cells and platelets maintain plasma membrane phospholipid asymmetry. Upon activation, this asymmetry is disrupted by phospholipid scrambling (PS), which is a major step during activation of immune cells, hemostasis and apoptosis. Anoctamin 6 (Ano6; TMEM16F) causes chloride (Cl-) and cation currents and is required for Ca2+ -dependent PS. It is defective in blood cells from patients with Scott syndrome, a rare bleeding disorder. We examined if Cl- currents and PS are related, whether both processes are Ca2+ dependent, and whether Ca2+ -independent scrambling during intrinsic and extrinsic apoptosis is controlled by Ano6. Ca2+ increase by ionomycin activated Ano6 Cl- currents and PS in normal lymphocytes, but not in B-lymphocytes from two different patients with Scott syndrome. Fas ligand (FasL) did not increase intracellular Ca2+, but activated Cl- currents in normal but not in Scott lymphocytes. Whole-cell currents were inhibited by Cl- channel blockers and by siRNA knockdown of Ano6. In contrast, intrinsic mitochondrial apoptosis by ABT-737 did not induce Cl- currents in lymphocytes. PS was not inhibited by blockers of Ano6 or removal of Cl- ions. Remarkably, Ca2+ -independent scrambling due to extrinsic (FasL) or intrinsic (ABT-737) apoptosis was unchanged in Scott cells. We conclude that: (i) Ano6 Cl- currents are activated by increase in cytosolic Ca2+, or Ca2+ -independent by stimulation of Fas receptors; (ii) Ca2+ -dependent PS induced by Ano6 does not require Cl- currents; (iii) Ca2+ -independent PS does not require Ano6; (iv) Ano6 is necessary for Ca2+ -dependent PS, but not by increasing intracellular Ca2+.
