Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)) is an abundant phospholipid that contributes to second messenger formation and has also been shown to contribute to the regulation of cytoskeletal dynamics in all eukaryotic cells. Although the alpha, beta, and gamma isoforms of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate-5-kinase I (PIP5KI) all synthesize PIP2, mammalian cells usually contain more than one PIP5KI isoform. This raises the question of whether different isoforms of PIP5KI fulfill different functions. Given the speculated role of PIP(2) in platelet and megakaryocyte actin dynamics, we analyzed murine megakaryocytes lacking individual PIP5KI isoforms. PIP5KIgamma(-/-) megakaryocytes exhibited plasma membrane blebbing accompanied by a decreased association of the membrane with the cytoskeleton. This membrane defect was rescued by adding back wild-type PIP5KIgamma, but not by adding a catalytically inactive mutant or a splice variant lacking the talin-binding motif. Notably, both PIP5KIbeta- and PIP5KIgamma(-/-) cells had impaired PIP(2) synthesis. However, PIP5KIbeta-null cells lacked the membrane-cytoskeleton defect. Furthermore, overexpressing PIP5KIbeta in PIP5KIgamma(-/-) cells failed to revert this defect. Megakaryocytes lacking the PIP5KIgamma-binding partner, talin1, mimicked the membrane-cytoskeleton defect phenotype seen in PIP5KIgamma(-/-) cells. These findings demonstrate a unique role for PIP5KIgamma in the anchoring of the cell membrane to the cytoskeleton in megakaryocytes, probably through a pathway involving talin. These observations further demonstrate that individual PIP5KI isoforms fulfill distinct functions within cells.

Abstract
The remarkably versatile phospholipid, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P(2)], plays crucial roles in signal transduction, actin cytoskeleton reorganization, clathrin-dependent endocytosis, and regulation of membrane morphology. In mammalian cells, PI(4,5)P(2) is synthesized predominantly by phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate [PI(4)P] 5-kinase (PIP5K) through phosphorylation of PI(4)P at the D-5 position of the inositol ring. PIP5K is composed of three isoforms, PIP5Kalpha, beta, and gamma, and three splicing variants of the gamma isozyme. Although the PIP5Kgamma splicing variant PIP5Kgamma661 appears to be very specifically activated by talin, which plays a crucial role in focal adhesion formation, and the adaptor complex AP-2, the regulation of activities of other PIP5K isozymes is not fully understood at present. To understand the activation mechanism and the physiological function specific to each PIP5K isozyme, it is required to identify a specific activator of each PIP5K isozyme. This chapter describes common assays used to measure interaction and activation of PIP5K isozymes by activators thus far identified. In addition, procedures for preparation of PIP5K isozymes and activators are described.

Abstract
Synaptic vesicles (SVs) are retrieved by clathrin-mediated endocytosis at the nerve terminals. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] drives this event by recruiting the components of the endocytic machinery. However, the molecular mechanisms that result in local generation of PI(4,5)P2 remain unclear. We demonstrate here that AP-2 complex directly interacts with phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase gamma661 (PIP5Kgamma661), the major PI(4,5)P2-producing enzyme in the brain. The beta2 subunit of AP-2 was found to bind to the C-terminal tail of PIP5Kgamma661 and cause PIP5Kgamma661 activation. The interaction is regulated by PIP5Kgamma661 dephosphorylation, which is triggered by depolarization in mouse hippocampal neurons. Finally, overexpression of the PIP5Kgamma661 C-terminal region in hippocampal neurons suppresses depolarization-dependent SV endocytosis. These findings provide evidence for the molecular mechanism through which PIP5Kgamma661 locally generates PI(4,5)P2 in hippocampal neurons and suggest a model in which the interaction trigger SV endocytosis.

Abstract
The phosphoinositide kinase, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K), produces the versatile phospholipid phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI4,5P(2)), through which PIP5K plays crucial roles in a wide variety of cell functions. So far, three PIP5K isozymes and splicing variants have been identified. We speculate that each PIP5K isozyme or splicing variant is activated in a tempo-spatially different manner, due to the existence of activators or recruiters specific to each isozyme: this tempo-spatially different activation of PIP5K produces PI4,5P(2) at different compartments of the cell at different times, which phenomenon may be responsible for the apparent multifunction of PI4,5P(2)/PIP5K. Accumulating evidence supports this notion that each PIP5K isozyme is activated by its specific activator and plays a crucial role in a unique cell function. In this article, we describe recent advances regarding the PIP5K isozyme-specific activation mechanisms and physiological functions.

Abstract
Proper neutrophil migration into inflammatory sites ensures host defense without tissue damage. Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI(3)K) and its lipid product phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)) regulate cell migration, but the role of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)-degrading enzymes in this process is poorly understood. Here, we show that Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing inositol-5-phosphatase 1 (SHIP1), a PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) phosphatase, is a key regulator of neutrophil migration. Genetic inactivation of SHIP1 led to severe defects in neutrophil polarization and motility. In contrast, loss of the PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) phosphatase PTEN had no impact on neutrophil chemotaxis. To study PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) metabolism in living primary cells, we generated a novel transgenic mouse (AktPH-GFP Tg) expressing a bioprobe for PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3.) Time-lapse footage showed rapid, localized binding of AktPH-GFP to the leading edge membrane of chemotaxing ship1(+/+)AktPH-GFP Tg neutrophils, but only diffuse localization in ship1(-/-)AktPH-GFP Tg neutrophils. By directing where PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) accumulates, SHIP1 governs the formation of the leading edge and polarization required for chemotaxis.

Abstract
The tumor suppressor phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) regulates diverse cellular functions by dephosphorylating the lipid second messenger, phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP(3)). Recent study revealed that PICT-1/GLTSCR2 bound to and stabilized PTEN protein in cells, implicating its roles in PTEN-governed PIP(3) signals. In this study, we demonstrate that RNA interference-mediated knockdown of PICT-1 in HeLa cells down-regulated endogenous PTEN and resulted in the activation of PIP(3) downstream effectors, such as protein kinase B/Akt. Furthermore, the PICT-1 knockdown promoted HeLa cell proliferation; however the proliferation of PTEN-null cells was not altered by the PICT-1 knockdown, suggesting its dependency on PTEN status. In addition, apoptosis of HeLa cells induced by staurosporine or serum-depletion was alleviated by the PICT-1 knockdown in the similar PTEN-dependent manner. Most strikingly, the PICT-1 knockdown in HeLa and NIH3T3 cells promoted anchorage-independent growth, a hallmark of tumorigenic transformation. Furthermore, PICT-1 was aberrantly expressed in 18 (41%) of 44 human neuroblastoma specimens, and the PICT-1 loss was associated with reduced PTEN protein expression in spite of the existence of PTEN mRNA. Collectively, these results suggest that PICT-1 plays a role in PIP(3) signals through controlling PTEN protein stability and the impairment in the PICT-1-PTEN regulatory unit may become a causative factor in human tumor(s).

Abstract
The mammalian small GTPase ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6) plays important roles in a wide variety of cellular events, including endocytosis, actin cytoskeletal reorganization, and phosphoinositide metabolism. However, physiological functions for ARF6 have not previously been examined. Here, we described the consequence of ARF6 ablation in mice, which manifests most obviously in the context of liver development. Livers from ARF6-/- embryos are smaller and exhibit hypocellularity, due to the onset of midgestational liver cell apoptosis. Preceding the apoptosis, however, defective hepatic cord formation is observed; the liver cells migrate abnormally upon exiting the primordial hepatic epithelial sheet and clump rather than becoming dispersed. Consistent with this observation, the ability of hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF) to induce hepatic cord-like structures from ARF6-/- fetal hepatocytes cultured in vitro in collagen gel matrix is impaired. Finally, we show that endogenous ARF6 in wild-type fetal hepatocytes is activated in response to HGF stimulation. These results provide evidence that ARF6 is an essential component in the signaling pathway coupling HGF signaling to hepatic cord formation.

Abstract
Actin cytoskeletal reorganization and membrane trafficking are important for spine morphogenesis. Here we investigated whether the small GTPase, ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6), which regulates actin dynamics and peripheral vesicular trafficking, is involved in the regulation of spine formation. The developmental expression pattern of ARF6 in mouse hippocampus was similar to that of the post-synaptic density protein-95, and these molecules colocalized in mouse hippocampal neurons. Overexpression of a constitutively active ARF6 mutant in cultured hippocampal neurons decreased the spine density, whereas a dominant-negative ARF6 mutant increased the density. These results demonstrate a novel function for ARF6 as a key regulator of spine formation.

Abstract
Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most common form of epilepsy, affecting approximately 1-2% of the population. Seizure events resulting from TLE are characterized by aberrant hippocampal mossy fiber sprouting and plastic responses that affect brain function. Seizure susceptibility is modulated by the enzyme tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), the normal physiological role of which includes promotion of synaptic reorganization in the mossy fiber pathway by initiating a proteolytic cascade that cleaves extracellular matrix components and influences neurite extension. tPA is concentrated at and selectively secreted from growth cones during excitatory events. However, the mechanisms underlying tPA release during seizure-induced synaptogenesis are not well understood. We examine here potential roles for the signaling enzyme phospholipase D1 (PLD1), which promotes regulated exocytosis in non-CNS cell types, and which we previously demonstrated increases in expression in hippocampal neurons during seizure-induced mossy fiber sprouting. We now show that overexpression of wild-type PLD1 in cultured neurons promotes tPA release and tPA-dependent neurite extension, whereas overexpression of an inactive PLD1 allele or pharmacological inhibition of PLD1 inhibits tPA release. Similarly, viral delivery of wild-type PLD1 into the hippocampus facilitates tPA secretion and mossy fiber sprouting in a seizure-inducing model, whereas the inactive PLD1 allele inhibits tPA release and elicits blunted and abnormal mossy fiber extension similar to that observed for tPA-/- mice. Together, these findings secretion and thus mossy fiber extension in the setting of elevated suggest that PLD1 functions endogenously to regulate tPA-/- neuronal stimulation, such as that seen in TLE.

Abstract
Cell division ends up with the membrane separation of two daughter cells, presumably by a membrane fusion that requires dynamic changes of the distribution and the composition of membrane lipids. We have previously shown that a membrane lipid phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) is exposed on the cell surface of the cleavage furrow during late cytokinesis and that this PE movement is involved in regulation of the contractile ring disassembly. Here we show that immobilization of cell surface PE by a PE-binding peptide blocks the RhoA inactivation in the late stage of cytokinesis. Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K), but not other RhoA effectors, is co-localized with RhoA in the peptide-treated cells. Indeed, PIP5K and its product phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P(2)) are localized to the cleavage furrow of normally dividing cells. Both overexpression of a kinase-deficient PIP5K mutant and microinjection of anti-PI(4,5)P(2) antibodies compromise cytokinesis by preventing local accumulation of PI(4,5)P(2) in the cleavage furrow. These findings demonstrate that the localized production of PI(4,5)P(2) is required for the proper completion of cytokinesis and that the possible formation of a unique lipid domain in the cleavage furrow membrane may play a crucial role in coordinating the contractile rearrangement with the membrane remodeling during late cytokinesis.

Abstract
The small GTPase RhoA regulates a wide spectrum of cellular functions including transformation and cytoskeletal reorganization. A large number of proteins have been identified as targets of RhoA, but their specific roles in these processes are not clear. Phospholipase D (PLD) was shown to be one such target several years ago; more recent work from our laboratory and others has demonstrated that of the two mammalian PLD isozymes, PLD1 but not PLD2 is activated by RhoA and this activation proceeds through direct binding both in vitro and in vivo. In this study, using a series of RhoA mutants, we have defined a PLD1-specific interacting site on RhoA composed of the residues Asn41, Trp58 and Asp76, using the yeast two-hybrid system, co-immunoprecipitation, and a PLD in vivo assay. The results further substantiate our previous finding that RhoA activates PLD1 through direct interaction. These mutants were then used to investigate the role of PLD1 in the cytoskeletal reorganization stimulated by RhoA signaling. Our results show that PLD1 is not required for the RhoA-mediated stress fiber and focal adhesion formation. The lack of importance of PLD1 signaling in RhoA-mediated cytoskeletal reorganization is further supported by the observation that PLD1 depletion using an shRNA approach and tetracycline-induced overexpression of the wild-type and the catalytically inactive mutant of PLD1 in stable cell lines do not alter stress fiber and focal adhesion formation.

Abstract
The membrane phospholipid phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] is a critical signal transducer in eukaryotic cells. However, the physiological roles of the type I phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinases (PIPKIs) that synthesize PI(4,5)P2 are largely unknown. Here, we show that the α isozyme of PIPKI (PIPKIα) negatively regulates mast cell functions and anaphylactic responses. In vitro, PIPKIα-deficient mast cells exhibited increased degranulation and cytokine production after Fcɛ receptor-I cross-linking. In vivo, PIPKIα−/− mice displayed enhanced passive cutaneous and systemic anaphylaxis. Filamentous actin was diminished in PIPKIα−/− mast cells, and enhanced degranulation observed in the absence of PIPKIα was also seen in wild-type mast cells treated with latrunculin, a pharmacological inhibitor of actin polymerization. Moreover, the association of FcɛRI with lipid rafts and FcɛRI-mediated activation of signaling proteins was augmented in PIPKIα−/− mast cells. Thus, PIPKIα is a negative regulator of FcɛRI-mediated cellular responses and anaphylaxis, which functions by controlling the actin cytoskeleton and dynamics of FcɛRI signaling. Our results indicate that the different PIPKI isoforms might be functionally specialized.

Abstract
The major aim of this study was to elucidate the role of nitric oxide (NO) in the development of pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-kindling as an animal model of primary generalized epilepsy. The daily administration of PTZ is associated with an increase in the amount of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). NO generation was measured directly by in vivo and ex vivo electron paramagnetic resonance on rodents undergoing progressive convulsions. We found that primary generalized epilepsy is caused by NO induction during the persistent up-regulation of nNOS expression, but that NO induction is not associated with severe generalized seizures following long-term kindling phenomena after PTZ withdrawal. Morphological changes in the brain structure of rats were measured by magnetic resonance imaging during epileptic convulsions induced by repetitive administration of PTZ. Cerebellum volume for kindled rats decreased 20% but not in rats treated with the nNOS inhibitor, 3Br-7NI, suggesting that generation of NO in the cerebellum is related to decrease in cerebellum volume following PTZ-kindling.

Abstract
Bin1/M-amphiphysin-II is an amphiphysin-II isoform highly expressed in transverse tubules of adult striated muscle and is implicated in their biogenesis. Bin1 contains a basic unique amino-acid sequence, Exon10, which interacts with certain phosphoinositides such as phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P(2)), to localize to membranes. Here we found that Exon10 also binds to the src homology 3 (SH3) domain of Bin1 itself, and hence blocks the binding of the SH3 domain to its canonical PxxP ligands, including dynamin. This blockage was released by addition of PI(4,5)P(2) in vitro or in cells overexpressing phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase. The Exon10-binding interface of the Bin1 SH3 domain largely overlapped with its PxxP-binding interface. We also show that the PLCdelta pleckstrin homology domain, another PI(4,5)P(2)-binding module, cannot substitute for Exon10 in Bin1 function in transverse tubule formation, and suggest the importance of the dual biochemical properties of Exon10 in myogenesis. Our results exemplify a novel mechanism of SH3 domain regulation, and suggest that the SH3-mediated protein-protein interactions of Bin1 are regulated by Exon10 so that it may only occur when Bin1 localizes to certain submembrane areas.

Abstract
The tumor suppressor PTEN plays an essential role in regulating signaling pathways involved in cell growth and apoptosis and is inactivated in a wide variety of tumors. In this study, we have identified a protein, referred to as PICT-1 (protein interacting with carboxyl terminus 1), that binds to the C terminus of PTEN and regulates its phosphorylation and turnover. Down-regulation of PICT-1 in MCF7 cells by RNA interference enhances the degradation of PTEN with a concomitant decrease in its phosphorylation. PTEN C-terminal tumor-associated mutants, which are highly susceptible to protein degradation, have lost the ability to bind to PICT-1 along with their reduced phosphorylation, suggesting that their rapid turnover results from impaired binding to PICT-1. Our results identify PICT-1 as a PTEN-interacting protein that promotes the phosphorylation and stability of PTEN. These findings suggest a novel molecular mechanism underlying the turnover of PTEN, which also provides an explanation for the loss of PTEN function due to C-terminal mutations.

Abstract
The signaling pathway that triggers morphological differentiation of PC12 cells is mediated by extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), the classic mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase. However, mediators of the pathway downstream of ERK have not been identified. We show here that phospholipase D2 (PLD2), which generates the pleiotropic signaling lipid phosphatidic acid (PA), links ERK activation to neurite outgrowth in nerve growth factor (NGF)-stimulated PC12 cells. Increased expression of wild type PLD2 (WT-PLD2) dramatically elongated neurites induced by NGF stimulation or transient expression of the active form of MAP kinase-ERK kinase (MEK-CA). The response was activity-dependent, because it was inhibited by pharmacological suppression of the PLD-mediated PA production and by expression of a lipase-deficient PLD2 mutant. Furthermore, PLD2 was activated by MEK-CA, whereas NGF-stimulated PLD2 activation and hypertrophic neurite extension were blocked by an MEK-specific inhibitor. Taken together, these results provide evidence that PLD2 functions as a downstream signaling effector of ERK in the NGF signaling pathway, which leads to neurite outgrowth by PC12 cells.

Abstract
Mammalian phospholipase D (PLD), a multifunctional signaling enzyme, has been reported to facilitate neurite outgrowth in cultured neurons. However, two mammalian isoforms have been found, PLD1 and PLD2, and it has not been determined which isoform is involved, or whether this in vitro phenomenon is relevant to neurite extension in vivo. Using confocal microscopy, we demonstrate that the PLDs are expressed by different cell types in the mouse brain: PLD1 by neurons, and PLD2 by astrocytes. Moreover, using a model of experimentally induced hippocampal mossy fiber sprouting, both isoforms were observed to increase dramatically in expression level along tracts of mossy fiber spouting, supporting the proposal that PLD plays a role in this process. Given that the two isoforms undertake unique molecular functions in cultured cells, our findings suggest that in vivo PLD1 and PLD2 may modulate neuronal plasticity via different pathways and cell types.

Abstract
Stimulation of the neuronal cell adhesion molecule L1 in cerebellar granule neurons (CGNs) enhances neurite outgrowth and this response is inhibited by the primary alcohol ethanol. Because primary alcohols suppress the formation of the signaling lipid phosphatidic acid (PA) by phospholipase D (PLD), this observation prompted us to investigate whether PLD plays a role in the L1-mediated neurite outgrowth in CGNs. In the cerebellum of postnatal day 8 mice, PLD2 protein was abundantly expressed, while PLD1 expression was not detected. The L1-stimulated neurite outgrowth was inhibited by primary alcohols and by overexpression of lipase-deficient PLD2. Increases in cellular PA levels by direct PA application or overexpression of wild-type PLD2 mimicked the L1-dependent stimulation of neurite outgrowth. Furthermore, it was found that L1 stimulation in CGNs increased PLD activity concomitantly with phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), both of which were inhibited by the MAP kinase-ERK kinase (MEK) inhibitor. These results provide evidence that PLD2 functions as a downstream signaling molecule of ERK to mediate the L1-dependent neurite outgrowth of CGNs, a mechanism that may be related to alcohol-related neurodevelopmental disorders.

Abstract
Drosophila PTEN (dPTEN) plays indispensable roles in the development of Drosophila melanogaster by controlling cell size and number. Although three potential spliced forms of dPTEN have been isolated, functional distinction among these forms remains elusive. In this study, we demonstrate that all spliced forms of dPTEN dephosphorylate phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P(3)); however, PI(3,4,5)P(3)-dependent activation of Drosophila Akt is suppressed specifically by one of three spliced forms, dPTEN3. Further, dPTEN3 dramatically changes its expression during the Drosophila development, while the other forms are expressed throughout the development. Our results suggest that dPTEN3 is the predominant spliced form that participates in PI(3,4,5)P(3)-mediated signaling pathways.

Abstract
The tumour suppressor PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10) plays essential roles in regulating signalling pathways involved in cell growth and apoptosis, and is inactivated in a wide variety of tumours. The role of PTEN as a tumour suppressor has been firmly established; however, the mechanism(s) by which its function and activity are regulated remains elusive. Here, we summarize recent progress in research directed towards trying to understand the molecular basis of regulatory mechanisms for PTEN. We also describe our novel finding that a tumour suppressor candidate protein binds to extreme C-terminal region of PTEN and regulates PTEN protein turnover.

Abstract
Stimulation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) produces membrane ruffles through the small G protein Rac1; however, the signaling pathway from EGFR to Rac1 has not yet been clarified. Here, we show that autophosphorylation of EGFR at tyrosine 992 is required for EGF-induced membrane ruffle formation in CHO cells. Signaling from the autophosphorylated tyrosine 992 appears to be mediated by phospholipase C (PLC) gamma 1. Furthermore, activation of Rac1 by EGF is inhibited by a PLC inhibitor. These results, taken together, suggest that autophosphorylation of EGFR at tyrosine 992 and the subsequent PLC gamma 1 activation transduce the signal to Rac1 to induce membrane ruffle formation.
