Abstract
Serum and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase-like kinase (SGKL) has been identified as a new integrator that decodes lipid signals produced by the activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). SGKL is activated via its lipid-binding domain (phox homology domain) in response to PI3K signaling. However, downstream targets of SGKL as well as the role of SGKL as a mediator in PI3K signaling in human tissues remain to be established. In this study, we identified human glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK-3beta) as a specific interacting partner with SGKL in a yeast two-hybrid screening of human brain cDNA library. The association between these two proteins is confirmed independently in human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells by co-immunoprecipitation. Furthermore, the kinase activity of wild-type SGKL was required for the in vitro phosphorylation of a GSK-3 crosstide fusion protein at serine-21/9 as demonstrated with a Phospho-GSK-3alpha/beta (Ser21/9) specific antibody. The present results provide strong evidences that SGKL could utilize GSK-3beta as a direct downstream target by phosphorylating GSK-3beta at serine-9.

Abstract
Inhibition of virus-induced intracellular signaling pathways and viral infectivity are our ultimate goals in the development of effective antiviral agents to control human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infections. The HCMV hyperimmune globulin may meet such criteria. In a human embryonic lung (HEL) fibroblast culture model, pretreatment of Towne strain HCMV with HCMV hyperimmune globulin was shown to inhibit viral infectivity successfully, as measured by a standard plaque assay. The extracellular viral titers and extracellular viral DNA, as measured by plaque assay and PCR, respectively, were also decreased. In addition, the HCMV hyperimmune globulin prevented HCMV from inducing the intracellular activation of NF-kappaB, Sp-1, and PI3-K signaling pathways. The PI3-K pathway was examined by following phosphorylation (activation) of two of its downstream kinases, Akt and p70S6K. HCMV hyperimmune globulin also prevented the production of immediate early, early, and late viral proteins. These studies show that HCMV hyperimmune globulin neutralization of HCMV prevents the earliest known events observed after viral envelope glycoproteins bind their cell membrane receptors, i.e., NF-kappaB, Sp-1 and PI3-K activation. This suggests that HCMV hyperimmune globulin not only can inhibit viral infectivity, but can also prevent the abnormal cellular signaling that may induce unwanted cellular proliferation or cytokine synthesis.

Abstract
Suppression of protein breakdown occurs commonly in cell growth, but the pathways responsible for controlling proteolysis are poorly understood. Protein breakdown in NRK-52E renal epithelial cells treated with epidermal growth factor (EGF) and intracellular signaling inhibitors or dominant negative signaling molecules contained in an adenoviral vector were measured. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor, herbimycin A, eliminated the suppression of proteolysis induced by EGF. In contrast, the Src inhibitor, PP1, had no effect. Expression of dominant negative H-RasY57 blocked the ability of EGF to stimulate downstream targets of Ras and also reduced the ability of EGF to suppress proteolysis. Inhibiting MEK did not influence the ability of EGF to suppress proteolysis, but the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) inhibitor, LY249002, stimulated basal proteolysis and completely eliminated the proteolytic response to EGF. Use of an adenovirus that expresses a dominant negative p85 subunit of class 1 PI 3-kinase completely blocked the ability of EGF to suppress proteolysis, whereas use of an adenovirus expressing a K227E constitutively active p110 subunit reproduced the reduction in protein breakdown. It was concluded that EGF suppresses proteolysis by a mechanism that involves Ras and class 1 PI 3-kinase.

Abstract
The PTEN tumour suppressor protein is a phosphoinositide 3-phosphatase that, by metabolising phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)), acts in direct antagonism to growth factor stimulated PI 3-kinases. A wealth of data has now illuminated pathways that can be controlled by PTEN through PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3), some of which, when deregulated, give a selective advantage to tumour cells. Early studies of PTEN showed that its activity was able to promote cell cycle arrest and apoptosis and inhibit cell motility, but more recent data have identified other functional consequences of PTEN action, such as effects on the regulation of angiogenesis. The structure of PTEN includes several features not seen in related protein phosphatases, which adapt the enzyme to act efficiently as a lipid phosphatase, including a C2 domain tightly associated with the phosphatase domain, and a broader and deeper active site pocket. Several pieces of data indicate that PTEN is a principal regulator of the cellular levels of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3), but work is only just beginning to uncover mechanisms by which the cellular activity of PTEN can be controlled. There also remains the vexing question of whether any of PTEN's cellular functions reflect its evolutionary roots as a member of the protein tyrosine phosphatase superfamily.

Abstract
Using loss-of-function mutants of Ros and inducible epidermal growth factor receptor-Ros chimeras we investigated the role of various signaling pathways in Ros-induced cell transformation. Inhibition of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway with the MEK (MAP/extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase) inhibitor PD98059 had little effect on the Ros-induced monolayer and anchorage-independent growth of chicken embryo fibroblasts and NIH3T3 cells even though more than 70% of the MAPK was inhibited. In contrast, inhibiting the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway with the drug LY294002, a dominant negative mutant of PI3K, Deltap85, or the phosphatidylinositol phosphatase PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted in chromosome ten) resulted in a dramatic reduction of v-Ros- and epidermal growth factor receptor-Ros-promoted anchorage-independent growth of chicken embryo fibroblasts and NIH3T3 cells, respectively. Parallel and downstream components of PI3K signaling such as the Rho family GTPases (Rac, Rho, Cdc42) and the survival factor Akt were all shown to contribute to Ros-induced anchorage-independent growth, although Rac appeared to be less important for Ros-induced colony formation in NIH3T3 cells. Furthermore, the transformation-attenuated v-Ros mutants F419 and DI could be complemented by constitutively active mutants of PI3K and Akt. Finally, we found that overexpressing a constitutively active mutant of STAT3 (STAT3C) conferred a resistance to the inhibition of Ros-induced anchorage-independent growth by LY294002, suggesting a possible overlap of functions between PI3K and STAT3 signaling in mediating Ros-induced anchorage-independent growth.

Abstract
The negative factor (Nef) is one of six accessory proteins from primate lentiviruses (HIV-1, HIV-2, and SIV). It leads to high levels of viremia and the progression to AIDS in monkeys and humans. In this study, we demonstrated that Nef from HIV-1 binds to the regulatory subunit (p85) of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K). This interaction depended on the C-terminus of p85 and Nef. Moreover, PI3K was required to activate the Nef-associated p21-activated kinase (PAK). Finally, inhibition of PI3K blocked the activation of PAK and decreased the production of viral particles to levels observed with the Nef-deleted provirus. We conclude that Nef assembles a multiprotein signaling complex which is required for the optimal replication of HIV-1.

Abstract
Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA)-uPA receptor (uPAR) and epidermal growth factor (EGF)-EGF receptor (EGFR) expression is highly correlated with breast cancer metastasis. Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K),small Rho GTPases, such as Cdc42 and Rac1, and neuronal Wiskott Aldrich syndrome protein (N-WASP) are key effectors that regulate dynamic changes in the actin cytoskeleton and cell migration. uPA- and EGF-stimulated chemotaxis,cytoskeletal rearrangements and activation of Cdc42, Rac1 and N-WASP were studied in the highly metastatic human breast cancer cell line MDA MB 231. These studies reveal that divergent signalling occurs downstream of PI3K. The activity of PI3K was not necessary for uPA-induced chemotactic responses, but those induced by EGF were entirely dependent upon PI3K. Furthermore,PI3K-independent chemotactic signalling by uPA was shown to involve disruption of an interaction between β1-integrins and N-WASP and translocation of N-WASP to the actin cytoskeleton.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) are an evolutionarily conserved family of signal transducing enzymes. A great variety of stimuli activate PI3K, leading to the transient accumulation of its lipid products in cell membranes. These lipids serve as second messengers to regulate the location and activity of an array of downstream effector molecules. In cells of the mammalian immune system, PI3K is activated by receptors for antigen, cytokines, costimulatory molecules, immunoglobulins and chemoattractants. Signaling via PI3K regulates immune cell proliferation, survival, differentiation, chemotaxis, phagocytosis, degranulation, and respiratory burst. Here we review our current understanding of PI3K signaling in leukocytes.

Abstract
GH and IGF-I are critical hormones for the regulation of longitudinal growth and the maintenance of lean body mass in humans. The regulation of IGF-I expression by GH in hepatocytes is well documented; however less is known about the regulation of IGF-I in peripheral tissues such as muscle. We have examined the regulation of IGF-I mRNA by GH and IGF-I in C2C12 myoblasts. GH stimulated the accumulation of IGF-I mRNA dose- and time-dependently. An elevation of IGF-I mRNA was observed with GH doses as low as 0.75 ng/ml and after exposure to GH for as little as 1 h, and the increase required ongoing transcription and translation. GH applied in a pulsatile fashion for 10 min followed by an 8-h interpulse interval increased IGF-I mRNA to a greater extent than continuous exposure. GH stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of the GH receptor, signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (Stat3), and Stat5. Stat5 was resistant to additional phosphorylation if cells were given a GH pulse within 2 h of a previous GH exposure. The refractory period lasted for 4 h, and cells could be maximally stimulated again after 6 h. Stat3 phosphorylation was also enhanced in cells that were allowed to recover from a previous application of GH. The tyrosine kinase inhibitors, genistein, PP1, and AG-490, and the MAPK kinase inhibitor, PD98059, did not block Stat3 or Stat5 phosphorylation. In contrast, WHI-P154, a Janus kinase-3 inhibitor, dose-dependently prevented Stat3, but not Stat5, phosphorylation. GH-inducible nuclear transport of Stat3 was likewise inhibited by WHI-P154. Most importantly, GH-dependent IGF-I mRNA expression was inhibited by WHI-P154. In contrast, IGF-I mRNA expression was inhibited by IGF-I peptide, and the effect of IGF-I was dominant over that of GH. IGF-I mRNA was regulated by both PI3K and MAPK signal transduction pathways, but IGF-I peptide signaled predominantly through a wortmannin-sensitive pathway to down-regulate its own mRNA. Our data suggest that Janus kinases (Jak2 or Jak3) and their downstream targets (Stat3 and Stat5) may play important roles in the expression of IGF-I mRNA and the myoblast response to GH. In addition, C2C12 cells appear to be a good model system to examine GH regulation of Janus kinase/Stat signaling and the regulation of IGF-I mRNA.

Abstract
An analytical solution is obtained for the steady-state reaction rate of an intracellular enzyme, recruited to the plasma membrane by active receptors, acting upon a membrane-associated substrate. Influenced by physical and chemical effects, such interactions are encountered in numerous signal-transduction pathways. The generalized modeling framework is the first to combine reaction and diffusion limitations in enzyme action, the finite mean lifetime of receptor-enzyme complexes, reactions in the bulk membrane, and constitutive and receptor-mediated substrate insertion. The theory is compared with other analytical and numerical approaches, and it is used to model two different signaling pathway types. For two-state mechanisms, such as activation of the Ras GTPase, the diffusion-limited activation rate constant increases with enhanced substrate inactivation, dissociation of receptor-enzyme complexes, or crowding of neighboring complexes. The latter effect is only significant when nearly all of the substrate is in the activated state. For regulated supply and turnover pathways, such as phospholipase C-mediated lipid hydrolysis, an additional influence is receptor-mediated substrate delivery. When substrate consumption is rapid, this process significantly enhances the effective enzymatic rate constant, regardless of whether enzyme action is diffusion limited. Under these conditions, however, enhanced substrate delivery can result in a decrease in the average substrate concentration.

Abstract
The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) family of enzymes is recruited upon growth factor receptor activation and produces 3' phosphoinositide lipids. The lipid products of PI3K act as second messengers by binding to and activating diverse cellular target proteins. These events constitute the start of a complex signaling cascade, which ultimately results in the mediation of cellular activities such as proliferation, differentiation, chemotaxis, survival, trafficking, and glucose homeostasis. Therefore, PI3Ks play a central role in many cellular functions. The factors that determine which cellular function is mediated are complex and may be partly attributed to the diversity that exists at each level of the PI3K signaling cascade, such as the type of stimulus, the isoform of PI3K, or the nature of the second messenger lipids. Numerous studies have helped to elucidate some of the key factors that determine cell fate in the context of PI3K signaling. For example, the past two years has seen the publication of many transgenic and knockout mouse studies where either PI3K or its signaling components are deregulated. These models have helped to build a picture of the role of PI3K in physiology and indeed there have been a number of surprises. This review uses such models as a framework to build a profile of PI3K function within both the cell and the organism and focuses, in particular, on the role of PI3K in cell regulation, immunity, and development. The evidence for the role of deregulated PI3K signaling in diseases such as cancer and diabetes is reviewed.

Abstract
Although prolonged cell signaling is attenuated by internalization and downregulation of active receptors, it is now appreciated that many receptors continue to signal in intracellular compartments. Employing enhanced green fluorescent protein fusion probes, we have investigated the hypothesis that multiple signaling pathways are affected by the differential trafficking of membrane substrates such as PtdIns(4,5)P2. A phosphotyrosine-specific probe, but not a PtdIns(4,5)P2-specific probe, colocalized with internalized EGF as well as transferrin in EGF-stimulated living cells expressing autophosphorylation-competent EGF receptors. Neither probe colocalized with transferrin in the absence of EGF, demonstrating that the reduced level of accessible PtdIns(4,5)P2 in endosomes is constitutive. Finally, a PtdIns(3,4,5)P3-specific probe, which monitors phosphorylation of PtdIns(4,5)P2 by phosphoinositide 3-kinases, was recruited to the plasma membrane but not to EGF- or transferrin-containing endosomes in response to EGF stimulation. These results suggest that while many internalized receptors continue to engage intracellular enzymes, the phospholipase C and phosphoinositide 3-kinase signaling pathways are abrogated by the constitutive lack of accessible PtdIns(4,5)P2 in endosomes.

Abstract
The serine/threonine kinase p70 S6 kinase (p70S6K) phosphorylates the 40 S ribosomal protein S6, modulating the translation of an mRNA subset that encodes ribosomal proteins and translation elongation factors. p70S6K is activated in response to mitogenic stimuli and is required for progression through the G(1) phase of the cell cycle and for cell growth. Activation of p70S6K is regulated by phosphorylation of seven different residues distributed throughout the protein, a subset of which depends on the activity of p85/p110 phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K); in fact, the phosphorylation status of Thr(229) and Thr(389) is intimately linked to PI3K activity. In the full-length enzyme, however, these sites are also acutely sensitive to the action of FKBP 12-rapamycin-associated protein (FRAP). The mechanism by which PI3K and FRAP cooperate to induce p70S6K activation remains unclear. Here we show that the p85 regulatory subunit of PI3K also controls p70S6K activation by mediating formation of a ternary complex with p70S6K and FRAP. The p85 C-terminal SH2 domain is responsible for p85 coupling to p70S6K and FRAP, because deletion of the C-terminal SH2 domain inhibits complex formation and impairs p70S6K activation by PI3K. Formation of this complex is not required for activation of a FRAP-independent form of p70S6K, however, underscoring the role of p85 in regulating FRAP-dependent p70S6K activation. These studies thus show that, in addition to the contribution of PI3K activity, the p85 regulatory subunit plays a critical role in p70S6K activation.

Abstract
Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) acts downstream of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) in a pathway required for B cell receptor (BCR)-dependent proliferation. We used DNA microarrays to determine what fraction of genes this pathway influences and to investigate whether PI3K and Btk mediate distinct gene regulation events. As complete loss-of-function mutations in PI3K and Btk alter B cell subpopulations and may cause compensatory changes in gene expression, we used B cells with partial loss of function in either PI3K or Btk. Only about 5% of the BCR-dependent gene expression changes were significantly affected by reduced PI3K or Btk. The results indicate that PI3K and Btk share target genes, and that PI3K influences additional genes independently of Btk. These data are consistent with PI3K acting through Btk and other effectors to regulate expression of a critical subset of BCR target genes that determine effective entry into the cell cycle.

The ability to generate neurons persists at adulthood in restricted brain areas. During development, many growth factors exert their effects by interacting with tyrosine kinase receptors and activate the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and the Ras/MAP kinase pathways. By its ability to modulate these pathways, the recently identified Src homology 2 domain-containing inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase 2, SHIP2, has the potential to regulate neuronal development. Using in situ hybridization technique with multiple synthetic oligonucleotides, we demonstrated that SHIP2 mRNA was highly expressed in the ventricular zone at early embryonic stages and subventricular zones at latter stages of brain and spinal cord and in the sympathetic chain. No significant expression was seen in differentiated fields. This restricted expression was maintained from embryonic day 11.5 to birth. In the periphery, large expression was detected in muscle and kidney and moderate expression in thyroid, pituitary gland, digestive system and bone. In the adult brain, SHIP2 was mainly restricted in structures containing neural stem cells such as the anterior subventricular zone, the rostral migratory stream and the olfactory tubercle. SHIP2 was also detected in the choroid plexuses and the granular layer of the cerebellum. The specificity of SHIP2 expression in neural stem cells was further demonstrated by (i) the dramatic increase in SHIP2 mRNA signal in neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM)-deficient mice, which present an accumulation of progenitor cells in the anterior subventricular zone and the rostral migratory stream, (ii) the abundant expression of 160-kDa SHIP2 by western blotting in proliferating neurospheres in culture and its downregulation in non-proliferating differentiated neurospheres. In conclusion, the close correlation between the pattern of SHIP2 expression in the brain and the proliferative and early differentiative events suggests that the phosphatase SHIP2 may have important roles in neural development.

Abstract
In 1321N1 astrocytoma cells, heterotrimeric G-protein-coupled receptors that activate phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase Cbeta (PLCbeta) isoforms via G(q), induced a prolonged activation of protein kinase B (PKB) after a short delay. For example, the effect of carbachol acting on M3 muscarinic receptors is blocked by wortmannin, suggesting it is mediated via a phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase). In support of this, carbachol increased PI 3-kinase activity in PI 3-kinase (p85) immunoprecipitates. The pathway linking PLC-coupled receptors to PI 3-kinase was deduced to involve phosphoinositide hydrolysis and Ca2+-dependent ErbB3 transactivation but not protein kinase C on the basis of the following evidence: (i) inhibition of carbachol stimulated PLC by pretreatment with the phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate concomitantly reduced PKB activity, whereas stimulation of other PLC-coupled receptors also activated PKB; (ii) Ca2+ ionophores and thapsigargin stimulated PKB activity in a wortmannin-sensitive manner, whereas bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid blocked carbachol-stimulated PKB activity; (iii) phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate alone did not activate PKB, whereas a protein kinase C inhibitor did not prevent the activation of PKB by carbachol; and (iv) carbachol stimulated ErbB3-tyrosine phosphorylation and association with p85, and both these and PKB activity were blocked by tyrphostin AG1478, an epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor. These experiments define a novel pathway linking G(q)-coupled G-protein-coupled receptors to the activation of PI 3-kinase and PKB.

Abstract
Vps34p is a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase that is part of a membrane-associated complex with the Vps15p protein kinase. This kinase complex is required for the delivery of soluble proteins to the lysosomal/vacuolar compartment of eukaryotic cells. This study examined the Vps34p-Vps15p association and identified the domains within each protein that were important for this interaction. Using several different approaches, the interaction domain within Vps34p was mapped to a 28-amino acid element near its C terminus. This Vps34p motif was both necessary and sufficient for the interaction with Vps15p. Two-hybrid mapping experiments indicated that two separate regions of Vps15p were required for the association with Vps34p; they are the N-terminal protein kinase domain and a set of three tandem repeats of about 39 amino acids each. Neither domain alone was sufficient for the interaction. These Vps15p repeat elements are similar in sequence to the HEAT motifs that have been implicated in protein interactions in other proteins, including the Huntingtin protein. Finally, these studies identified a novel motif at the very C terminus of Vps34p that was required for phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity. This domain is highly conserved specifically in all Vps34p-like phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases but is not required for the interaction with Vps15p. This study thus represents a first step toward a better understanding of how this Vps15p.Vps34p kinase complex is assembled and regulated in vivo.

Abstract
Cell migration is a complex process requiring tight control of several mechanisms including dynamic reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and adhesion to the extracellular matrix. The GPI-anchored urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) has an important role in the regulation of cell motility in many cell types. This is partly due to the localization of proteolytic activity on the cell surface by binding of the serine protease uPA. Results accumulated over the last decade suggest that uPAR is also involved in motility control through other mechanisms. These include induction of signal transduction events after ligation with uPA, binding to the extracellular matrix molecule vitronectin (VN), and association with integrins and other transmembrane partners. In this review these mechanisms will be discussed with a special emphasis on how the GPI-linked receptor transmits signals to the intracellular milieu and how uPAR participates in the regulation of actin cytoskeleton reorganization and cell adhesion during cell migration.

Abstract
It has generally been observed that cells grow to a certain size before they divide. In the last few years, the PI3K signal transduction pathway has emerged as one of the main signaling routes utilized by cells to control their increase in size. Here we focus on two components of this pathway, PKB and S6K, and briefly review the experiments that initially uncovered their roles in cell size control. In addition, we discuss a number of recent observations suggesting that the generic models used to describe this pathway to date may have been oversimplified. Indeed, recent observations in Drosophila and mouse support a more complex interaction between these signaling components in development. Finally, we have utilized two contemporary studies involving PKB- and S6K-deficient mice as a paradigm to underscore the importance of cell size and to accurately delineate the connections between signaling pathways for human disease, such as diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Platelet adhesion and aggregation at sites of vascular injury are critically dependent on the interaction between von Willebrand factor (VWF) and 2 major platelet adhesion receptors, glycoprotein (GP) Ib/V/IX and integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3). GP Ib/V/IX binding to VWF mediates platelet tethering and translocation, whereas activation of integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) promotes cell arrest. To date, the signaling pathways used by the VWF-GP Ib/V/IX interaction to promote activation of integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3), particularly under shear, have remained poorly defined. In this study, the potential involvement of type 1 phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinases in this process was investigated. Results show that platelet adhesion and spreading on immobilized VWF results in a specific increase in the PI 3-kinase lipid product, PtdIns(3,4)P(2). Under static conditions, inhibiting PI 3-kinase with LY294002 or wortmannin did not prevent platelet adhesion, integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) activation, or platelet spreading although it significantly delayed the onset of these events. In contrast, PI 3-kinase inhibition under shear dramatically reduced both platelet adhesion and spreading. Real-time analysis of intracellular calcium demonstrated that under static conditions inhibiting PI 3-kinase delayed the onset of intracellular fluxes in adherent platelets, but did not affect the final magnitude of the calcium response. However, under shear, inhibiting PI 3-kinase dramatically reduced intracellular calcium mobilization and integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) activation, resulting in impaired thrombus growth. The studies demonstrate a shear-dependent role for PI 3-kinase in promoting platelet adhesion on immobilized VWF. Under static conditions, platelets appear to mobilize intracellular calcium through both PI 3-kinase-dependent and -independent mechanisms, whereas under shear PI 3-kinase is indispensable for VWF-induced calcium release.

Abstract
Type-I phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) were characterized as a group of intracellular signalling proteins expressing both protein and lipid kinase activities. Recent studies implicate PI3Ks as mediators of oocyte maturation, but the molecular mechanisms are poorly defined. Here we used the Xenopus oocyte expression system as a model to investigate a possible contribution of the gamma-isoform of PI3K (PI3Kgamma) in the different pathways leading to cell-cycle progression by monitoring the time course of germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD). Expression of a constitutive active PI3Kgamma (PI3Kgamma-CAAX) induced GVBD and increased the levels of phosphorylated Akt/protein kinase B and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). Furthermore, PI3Kgamma-CAAX accelerated progesterone-induced GVBD, but had no effect on GVBD induced by insulin. The effects of PI3Kgamma-CAAX could be suppressed by pre-incubation of the oocytes with LY294002, PD98059 or roscovitine, inhibitors of PI3K, MEK (MAPK/extracellular-signal-regulated protein kinase kinase) and cdc2/cyclin B kinase, respectively. Mutants of PI3Kgamma-CAAX, in which either lipid kinase or both lipid and protein kinase activities were altered or eliminated, did not induce significant GVBD. Our data demonstrate that expression of PI3Kgamma in Xenopus oocytes accelerates their progesterone-induced maturation and that lipid kinase activity is required to induce this effect.

Abstract
The epithelial lining of the intestine serves as a barrier to lumenal bacteria and can be compromised by pathologic Fas-mediated epithelial apoptosis. Phosphatidylinositol (PI)3-kinase signaling has been described to limit apoptosis in other systems. We hypothesized that PI3-kinase-dependent pathways regulate Fas-mediated apoptosis and barrier function in intestiynal epithelial cells (IEC). IEC lines (HT-29 and T84) were exposed to agonist anti-Fas antibody in the presence or absence of chemical inhibitors of PI3-kinase (LY294002 and wortmannin). Apoptosis, barrier function, changes in short circuit current (DeltaI(sc)), and expression of adhesion molecules were assessed. Inhibition of PI3-kinase strongly sensitized IEC to Fas-mediated apoptosis. Expression of constitutively active Akt, a principal downstream effector of the PI3-kinase pathway, protected against Fas-mediated apoptosis to an extent that was comparable with expression of a genetic caspase inhibitor, p35. PI3-kinase inhibition sensitized to apoptosis by increasing and accelerating Fas-mediated caspase activation. Inhibition of PI3-kinase combined with cross-linking Fas was associated with increased permeability to molecules that were <400 Da but not those that were >3,000 Da. Inhibition of PI3-kinase resulted in chloride secretion that was augmented by cross-linking Fas. Confocal analyses revealed polymerization of actin and maintenance of epithelial cell adhesion molecule-mediated interactions in monolayers exposed to anti-Fas antibody in the context of PI3-kinase inhibition. PI3-kinase-dependent pathways, especially Akt, protect IEC against Fas-mediated apoptosis. Inhibition of PI3-kinase in the context of Fas signaling results in increased chloride secretion and barrier dysfunction. These findings suggest that agonists of PI3-kinase such as growth factors may have a dual effect on intestinal inflammation by protecting epithelial cells against immune-mediated apoptosis and limiting chloride secretory diarrhea.

Abstract
Thrombopoietin (TPO) stimulates a network of intracellular signaling pathways that displays extensive cross-talk. We have demonstrated previously that the ERK/mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway is important for TPO-induced endomitosis in primary megakaryocytes (MKs). One known pathway by which TPO induces ERK activation is through the association of Shc with the penultimate phosphotyrosine within the TPO receptor, Mpl. However, several investigators found that the membrane-proximal half of the cytoplasmic domain of Mpl is sufficient to activate ERK in vitro and support base-line megakaryopoiesis in vivo. Using BaF3 cells expressing a truncated Mpl (T69Mpl) as a tool to identify non-Shc/Ras-dependent signaling pathways, we describe here novel mechanisms of TPO-induced ERK activation mediated, in part, by phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). Similar to cells expressing full-length receptor, PI3K was activated by its incorporation into a complex with IRS2 or Gab2. Furthermore, the MEK-phosphorylating activity of protein kinase Czeta (PKCzeta) was also enhanced after TPO stimulation of T69Mpl, contributing to ERK activity. PKCzeta and PI3K also contribute to TPO-induced ERK activation in MKs, confirming their physiological relevance. Like in BaF3 cells, a TPO-induced signaling complex containing p85PI3K is detectable in MKs expressing T61Mpl and is probably responsible for PI3K activation. These data demonstrate a novel role of PI3K and PKCzeta in steady-state megakaryopoiesis.

Abstract
PtdIns phosphate kinases (PIPkins), which generate PtdInsP(2) isomers, have been classified into three subfamilies that differ in their substrate specificities. We demonstrate here that the previously identified AtPIP5K1 gene from Arabidopsis thaliana encodes a PIPkin with dual substrate specificity in vitro, capable of phosphorylating PtdIns3P and PtdIns4P to PtdIns(3,4)P(2) and PtdIns(4,5)P(2) respectively. We also show that recombinant AtPIP5K1 is phosphorylated by protein kinase A and a soluble protein kinase from A. thaliana. Phosphorylation of AtPIP5K1 by protein kinase A is accompanied by a 40% inhibition of its catalytic activity. Full activity is recovered by treating phosphorylated AtPIP5K1 with alkaline phosphatase.

Abstract
Intra-acinar cell activation of digestive enzyme zymogens including trypsinogen is generally believed to be an early and critical event in acute pancreatitis. We have found that the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin can reduce the intrapancreatic activation of trypsinogen that occurs during two dissimilar experimental models of rodent acute pancreatitis, secretagogue- and duct injection-induced pancreatitis. The severity of both models was also reduced by wortmannin administration. In contrast, the NF-kappa B activation that occurs during the early stages of secretagogue-induced pancreatitis is not altered by administration of wortmannin. Ex vivo, caerulein-induced trypsinogen activation is inhibited by wortmannin and LY294002. However, the cytoskeletal changes induced by caerulein were not affected by wortmannin. Concentrations of caerulein that induced ex vivo trypsinogen activation do not significantly increase phosphatidylinositol-3,4-bisphosphate or phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate levels or induce phosphorylation of Akt/PKB, suggesting that class I phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases are not involved. The concentration of wortmannin that inhibits trypsinogen activation causes a 75% decrease in phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate, which is implicated in vesicle trafficking and fusion. We conclude that a wortmannin-inhibitable phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase is necessary for intrapancreatic activation of trypsinogen and regulating the severity of acute pancreatitis. Our observations suggest that phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibition might be of benefit in preventing acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
GRP1 is a member of a family of proteins that contain a coiled-coil region, a Sec7 homology domain with guanosine nucleotide exchange activity for the ARF GTP-binding proteins, and a pleckstrin homology domain at the C terminus. The pleckstrin homology domain of GRP1 binds phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5) trisphosphate and mediates the translocation of GRP1 to the plasma membrane upon agonist stimulation of PI 3-kinase activity. Using a (32)P-labeled GRP1 probe to screen a mouse brain cDNA expression library, we isolated a cDNA clone encoding a GRP1-binding partner (GRSP1) that exists as two different splice variants in brain and lung. The GRSP1 protein contains a FERM protein interaction domain as well as two coiled coil domains and may therefore function as a scaffolding protein. Mapping experiments revealed that the interaction of GRP1 and GRSP1 occurs through the coiled coil domains in the two proteins. Immunodepletion experiments indicate that virtually all of the endogenous GRSP1 protein exists as a complex with GRP1 in lung. When co-expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing the human insulin receptor, both proteins display a diffuse, cytoplasmic localization. Acute translocation and co-localization of GRSP1 and GRP1 to ruffles in the plasma membrane was evident after insulin stimulation. These results identify GRSP1 as a novel member of GRP1 signaling complexes that are acutely recruited to plasma membrane ruffles in response to insulin receptor signaling.

Abstract
Salmonella invade nonphagocytic cells by eliciting their own internalization; upon contact with the host cell, the bacteria induce membrane ruffles highly localized to the point of contact between the invading bacterium and the host cell. The bacterium is then internalized into an unusual cytosolic organelle, the Salmonella-containing vacuole (SCV). Early endosomal markers (including EEA1) have recently been shown to be associated with the SCV shortly after invasion. EEA1, a protein involved in early endosome fusion, is recruited to early endosomal membranes in part by the interaction between its FYVE finger and phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [PtdIns(3)P], a characteristic lipid of early endosomes. This suggests a possible role for PtdIns(3)P during Salmonella infection. To investigate this, we generated a highly specific probe for PtdIns(3)P that was used to follow invasion of Salmonella in nonphagocytic cells. Here, we show that PtdIns(3)P is present on the membranes of SCVs shortly after invasion and also that it is present on the membrane ruffles produced immediately prior to invasion. We also show that this specific probe cycles on and off the membranes of nascent SCVs even when PtdIns 3-kinase activity is inhibited, demonstrating that invading Salmonella influence the composition of the membranes that envelop them during invasion.

Abstract
The Janus kinase/STAT pathway has emerged as the paradigm of IFN-induced protection from viral infections. However, the possible participation of other signaling proteins in this protection is not clearly understood. In this report, we demonstrate that activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) by either serum factors or IFNs blocks cell death induced by encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) and HSV. This increased resistance to virus-induced cell death does not involve the activation of the STAT pathway and occurs in the presence of normal viral replication. Interestingly, the cell uses two different PI3K regulated pathways to block EMCV- and HSV-induced cell death. The increased sensitivity of p85alpha(-/-) embryonic fibroblasts to EMCV-induced cell death is specifically corrected by overexpression of an activated allele of Akt/protein kinase B, but not activated mitogen-activated protein kinase extracellular kinase. Conversely, the augmented sensitivity of p85alpha(-/-) cells to HSV-induced cell death was compensated for by expression of an activated form of mitogen-activated protein kinase extracellular kinase, but not by activated Akt/protein kinase B. We conclude from these data that PI3K-activated pathways function in parallel with the Janus kinase/STAT pathway to protect cells from the lethal effects of viruses.

Abstract
Na+/Cl- -dependent neurotransmitter transporters, which constitute a gene superfamily, are crucial for limiting neurotransmitter activity. Thus, it is critical to understand their regulation. This review focuses primarily on the norepinephrine transporter, the dopamine transporter, the serotonin transporter, and the gamma-aminobutyric acid transporter GAT1. Chronic administration of drugs that alter neurotransmitter release or inhibit transporter activity can produce persistent compensatory changes in brain transporter number and activity. However, regulation has not been universally observed. Transient alterations in norepinephrine transporter, dopamine transporter, serotonin transporter, and GAT1 function and/or number occur in response to more acute manipulations, including membrane potential changes, substrate exposure, ethanol exposure, and presynaptic receptor activation/inhibition. In many cases, acute regulation has been shown to result from a rapid redistribution of the transporter between the cell surface and intracellular sites. Second messenger systems involved in this rapid regulation include protein kinases and phosphatases, of which protein kinase C has been the best characterized. These signaling systems share the common characteristic of altering maximal transport velocity and/or cell surface expression, consistent with regulation of transporter trafficking. Although less well characterized, arachidonic acid, reactive oxygen species, and nitric oxide also alter transporter function. In addition to post-translational modifications, cytoskeleton interactions and transporter oligomerization regulate transporter activity and trafficking. Furthermore, promoter regions involved in transporter transcriptional regulation have begun to be identified. Together, these findings suggest that Na+/Cl- -dependent neurotransmitter transporters are regulated both long-term and in a more dynamic manner, thereby providing several distinct mechanisms for altering synaptic neurotransmitter concentrations and neurotransmission.

Abstract
Increase of intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate by the permeant cyclic adenosine monophosphate analog, 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-adenosine 3':5'- cyclic monophosphate, is mitogenic for normal adult rat chromaffin cells. The mitogenic effect is blocked by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor, LY294002, and is associated with accumulation of phosphorylated Akt and p70S6 kinase, suggesting that cyclic adenosine monophosphate activates Type l phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. The mechanism of activation was examined in PC12 pheochromocytoma cells, which are neoplastic chromaffin cells that exhibit many of the biochemical characteristics of their normal counterparts. Incubation of PC12 cells with 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-adenosine 3':5'- cyclic monophosphate led to a significant increase in total phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity that was sensitive to low concentrations of LY294002. The increase was maximal at 1 h and returned to basal levels within six hours. Immunoprecipitation studies showed no increase in phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity in anti-phosphotyrosine immune complexes from PC12 cells stimulated by 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-adenosine 3':5'- cyclic monophosphate, in contrast to cells stimulated by nerve growth factor. Instead, activity was demonstrated in association with p110gamma and p85. These findings suggest that cyclic adenosine monophosphate causes activation of Types IA and IB phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase by a novel mechanism in chromaffin and pheochromocytoma cells. That activation may contribute to chromaffin cell proliferation and to the development and progression of pheochromocytomas. J. Cell. Biochem. Suppl. 36: 89-98, 2001.

Abstract
Macropinocytosis plays an important role in the internalization of antigens by dendritic cells and is the route of entry for many bacterial pathogens; however, little is known about the molecular mechanisms that regulate the formation or maturation of macropinosomes. Like dendritic cells, Dictyostelium amoebae are active in macropinocytosis, and various proteins have been identified that contribute to this process. As described here, microscopic analysis of null mutants have revealed that the class I phosphoinositide 3-kinases, PIK1 and PIK2, and the downstream effector protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) are important in regulating completion of macropinocytosis. Although actin-rich membrane protrusions form in these cell lines, they recede without forming macropinosomes. Imaging of cells expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) fused to the pleckstrin homology domain (PH) of PKB (GFP-PHPKB) indicates that D3 phosphoinositides are enriched in the forming macropinocytic cup and remain associated with newly formed macropinosomes for <1 minute. A fusion protein, consisting of GFP fused to an F-actin binding domain, overlaps with GFP-PHPKB in the timing of association with forming macropinosomes. Although macropinocytosis is reduced in cells expressing dominant negative Rab7, microscopic imaging studies reveal that GFP-Rab7 associates only with formed macropinosomes at approximately the time that F-actin and D3 phosphoinositide levels decrease. These results support a model in which F-actin modulating proteins and vesicle trafficking proteins coordinately regulate the formation and maturation of macropinosomes.

Abstract
A major pathway by which growth factors, such as platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), regulate cell proliferation is via the receptor tyrosine kinase/Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascade. The output of this pathway is subjected to tight regulation of both positive and negative regulators. One such regulator is p62(dok), the prototype of a newly identified family of adaptor proteins. We recently provided evidence, through the use of p62(dok)-deficient cells, that p62(dok) acts as a negative regulator of growth factor-induced cell proliferation and the Ras/MAPK pathway. We show here that reintroduction of p62(dok) into p62(dok)-(/)- cells can suppress the increased cell proliferation and prolonged MAPK activity seen in these cells, and that plasma membrane recruitment of p62(dok) is essential for its function. We also show that the PDGF-triggered plasma membrane translocation of p62(dok) requires activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) and binding of its pleckstrin homology (PH) domain to 3'-phosphorylated phosphoinositides. Furthermore, we demonstrate that p62(dok) can exert its negative effect on the PDGFR/MAPK pathway independently of its ability to associate with RasGAP and Nck. We conclude that p62(dok) functions as a negative regulator of the PDGFR/Ras/MAPK signaling pathway through a mechanism involving PI3-kinase-dependent recruitment of p62(dok) to the plasma membrane.

Abstract
The critical anabolic and trophic role of signaling by insulin-like growth factors (IGF) I and II via the type-I IGF receptor (IGF-IR) is reviewed throughout the life of skeletal myocytes. The proliferative effects of IGF-IR stimulation, both during embryogenesis and during satellite cell proliferation following denervation or muscle injury, are mediated primarily through activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases. Signaling through phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase is essential to muscle protein synthesis and glucose uptake and may contribute to the observed resilience of mature muscle to programmed cell death. Degeneration or inhibition of the GH--IGF-I axis by aging, cachexia, sepsis, diabetes, drugs, and disuse all enhance muscle catabolism, and opposition of these effects by IGF-I may form the basis of effective myotherapy.

Abstract
Influx of calcium into cells following stimulation of cell surface receptors is a key process controlling cellular activity. However, despite intensive research, there is still no consensus on precisely how calcium entry is controlled in electrically no n-excitable cells. In particular, the regulation of depletion-activated or 'capacitative' calcium entry continues to be a focus of debate. Work published in the last 2 years has lent new impetus to the so-called 'conformational coupling' theory, although evidence for the existence of soluble messengers between the ER and the plasma membrane also continues to appear. In addition, there remains disagreement on whether intra-store [Ca(2+)] has to fall below a threshold before Ca(2+)entry is activated. A further major question is the identity of the putative depletion-operated Ca(2+)channel or channels. Here discussion has largely focussed on whether homologue(s) of the Drosophila TRP ('Transient Receptor Potential') protein is/are the elusive channel, or at least a part of it. Finally, it remains possible that Ca(2+)entry mechanisms other than depletion-activated channels may be important in agonist-evoked Ca(2+)influx. This commentary summarizes recent developments in the field, and highlights both current debates and critical unsolved questions.

Abstract
ADAM 12, a member of the ADAM family of transmembrane metalloprotease-disintegrins, has been implicated previously in the differentiation of skeletal myoblasts. In the present study, we show that the cytoplasmic tail of mouse ADAM 12 interacts in vitro and in vivo with the Src homology 3 domain of the p85alpha regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase. By site-directed mutagenesis, we have identified three p85alpha-binding sites in ADAM 12 involving PXXP motifs located at amino acids 825-828, 833-836, and 884-887. Using green fluorescent protein (GFP)-pleckstrin homology (PH) domain fusion protein as a probe for PI 3-kinase lipid products, we have further demonstrated that expression of ADAM 12 in C2C12 cells resulted in translocation of GFP-PH to the plasma membrane. This suggests that transmembrane ADAM 12, by providing docking sites for the Src homology 3 domain of p85alpha, activates PI 3-kinase by mediating its recruitment to the membrane. Because PI 3-kinase is critical for terminal differentiation of myoblasts, and because expression of ADAM 12 is up-regulated at the onset of the differentiation process, ADAM 12-mediated activation may constitute one of the regulatory mechanisms for PI 3-kinase during myoblast differentiation.

Abstract
A diverse range of insulin-regulated cellular processes are dependent on class I(A) phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI 3-Ks) and their association with and activation by up-stream signaling molecules. Here we report on the identification of the phosphoinositide 5'-kinase PIKfyve as a partner of class I(A) PI 3-K. Thus, both p85 and p110 subunits (class I(A)) of PI 3-Ks co-precipitated with anti-PIKfyve antibodies from lysates of resting 3T3-L1 adipocytes and, vice versa, PIKfyve co-precipitated with anti-p85 PI 3-K antibodies. Assignment to class I(A) PI 3-K enzymatic activity was further substantiated by the inhibition of PtdIns 3-P production in PIKfyve immune complexes by low concentrations of wortmannin and Triton X-100, and its preferences for Mg(2+) versus Mn(2+). Insulin but not PDGF or EGF stimulation of 3T3-L1 adipocytes markedly increased the PtdIns 3-P production (4.2-fold) in PIKfyve immune complexes, primarily as a result of increased PI 3-K intrinsic enzymatic activity. Intriguingly, while both insulin and PDGF caused an increase of class I(A) PI 3-K activity co-immunoprecipitated with tyrosine phosphorylated proteins, only insulin treatment yielded an activation of class I(A) PI 3-K in PIKfyve immune complexes. Studies aiming at identifying the underlying mechanism revealed that PIKfyve-class I(A) PI 3-K association and the insulin-induced activation likely operate independently of tyrosine phosphorylated insulin receptor substrate proteins. Together, these results establish PIKfyve as a novel source of activated class I(A) PI 3-K molecules that may be relevant in the insulin-signal transduction pathway.

Abstract
The lipid phosphatase SHIP2 (Src homology 2 domain containing inositol 5-phosphatase 2) has been shown to be expressed in nonhemopoietic and hemopoietic cells. It has been implicated in signaling events initiated by several extracellular signals, such as epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin. In COS-7 cells, SHIP2 was tyrosine-phosphorylated at least at two separated tyrosine phosphorylation sites in response to EGF. SHIP2 was coimmunoprecipitated with the EGF receptor (EGFR) and also with the adaptor protein Shc. A C-terminal truncated form of SHIP2 that lacks the 366 last amino acids, referred to as tSHIP2, was also precipitated with the EGFR when transfected in COS-7 cells. The Src homology 2 domain of SHIP2 was unable to precipitate the EGFR in EGF-stimulated cells. Moreover, when transfected in COS-7 cells, it could not be detected in immunoprecipitates of the EGFR. When the His-tagged full-length enzyme was expressed in COS-7 cells and stained with anti-His6 monoclonal antibody, a signal was observed at plasma membranes in EGF-stimulated cells that colocalize with the EGFR by double staining. Upon stimulation by EGF, phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate and protein kinase B activity were decreased in SHIP2-transfected COS-7 cells as compared with the vector alone. SHIP2 appears therefore in a tyrosine-phosphorylated complex with at least two other proteins, the EGFR and Shc.

Abstract
Infection of quiescent fibroblasts with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) was found to cause a rapid activation of cellular phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K). Maximum PI3-K activation occurred from 15 to 30 min postinfection. This activation was transient, and by 2 h postinfection (hpi), PI3-K activity had declined to preinfection levels. However, at 4 hpi, a second tier of PI3-K activation was detected, and PI3-K activity remained elevated relative to that of mock-infected cells for the remainder of infection. The cellular kinases Akt and p70S6K and the transcription factor NF-kappaB were activated in a PI3-K-dependent manner at similar times following HCMV infection. Analysis using UV-irradiated virus indicated that no viral protein synthesis was necessary for the first phase of PI3-K activation, but viral protein expression was required for the second tier of PI3-K activation. Treatment of infected fibroblasts with LY294002, a potent and specific inhibitor of PI3-K kinase activity, caused a 4-log decrease in viral titers. LY294002 did not inhibit viral entry, but it did decrease viral immediate-early gene expression. In addition, the protein levels of two viral early genes required for DNA replication, UL84 and UL44, were significantly lower in the presence of LY294002. Furthermore, viral DNA replication was strongly inhibited by LY294002 treatment. This inhibition of viral DNA replication could be reversed by adding back the products of PI3-K activity (PI-3,4-P(2) and PI-3,4,5-P(3)), demonstrating that the effect of LY294002 on the viral life cycle was specifically due to the inhibition of PI3-K activity. These results are the first to suggest that PI3-K mediates HCMV-induced activation of host cell mitogenic pathways. They also provide strong evidence that PI3-K activation is important for initiation of viral DNA replication and completion of the viral lytic life cycle.

Abstract
The rate of glucose transport into cells is of fundamental importance in whole body homeostasis and adaptation to metabolic stresses, and this review examines the signalling mechanisms controlling this process. The events that mediate the action of insulin on glucose transport, which is by far the best characterized paradigm for glucose transport regulation, are discussed. There are several excellent reviews on various aspects of this subject, which are referred to while highlighting very recent developments in the field, including the recently described CAP pathway, and emerging mechanisms for feedback regulation of insulin signalling. The manner in which hormonal signalling is modulated by stimuli such as oxidative and osmotic stress is then discussed. The second major physiological event where glucose transport regulation is critical is the contraction of skeletal muscle, due to the large metabolic demands of this activity. The mechanism of this regulation is distinct from that initiated by insulin, and recent developments will be examined that have begun to clarify how contraction stimulates glucose transport in skeletal muscle, including the roles performed by AMP-activated protein kinase and nitric oxide synthase.

Abstract
We have demonstrated previously that class I(A) phosphoinositide 3-kinases play a major role in regulation of interleukin-3 (IL)-3-dependent proliferation. Investigations into the downstream targets involved have identified the MAPK cascade as a target. Expression of Deltap85 and incubation with LY294002 both inhibited IL-3-induced activation of Mek, Erk1, and Erk2. This was most pronounced during the initial phase of Erk activation. The Mek inhibitor, PD98059, blocked IL-3-driven proliferation, an effect enhanced by Deltap85 expression, suggesting that inhibition of Mek and Erks by Deltap85 contributes to the decrease in IL-3-induced proliferation in these cells but that additional pathways may also be involved. To investigate the mechanism leading to decreased activation of Erks, we investigated effects on SHP2 and Gab2, both implicated in IL-3 regulation of Erk activation. Expression of Deltap85 led to a reduction in SHP2 tyrosine phosphorylation and its ability to interact with Grb2 and Gab2 but increased overall tyrosine phosphorylation of Gab2. LY294002 did not perturb SHP2 interactions, potentially related to differences in the effects of these inhibitors on levels of phosphoinositides. These results imply that the regulation of Erks by class I(A) phosphoinositide 3-kinase may contribute to IL-3-driven proliferation and that both SHP2 and Gab2 are possibly involved in this regulation.

Abstract
We show that cells lacking two Dictyostelium class I phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3′ kinases (PI3K and pi3k1/2-null cells) or wild-type cells treated with the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 are unable to properly polarize, are very defective in the temporal, spatial, and quantitative regulation of chemoattractant-mediated filamentous (F)-actin polymerization, and chemotax very slowly. PI3K is thought to produce membrane lipid-binding sites for localization of PH domain–containing proteins. We demonstrate that in response to chemoattractants three PH domain–containing proteins do not localize to the leading edge in pi3k1/2-null cells, and the translocation is blocked in wild-type cells by LY294002. Cells lacking one of these proteins, phdA-null cells, exhibit defects in the level and kinetics of actin polymerization at the leading edge and have chemotaxis phenotypes that are distinct from those described previously for protein kinase B (PKB) (pkbA)-null cells. Phenotypes of PhdA-dominant interfering mutations suggest that PhdA is an adaptor protein that regulates F-actin localization in response to chemoattractants and links PI3K to the control of F-actin polymerization at the leading edge during pseudopod formation. We suggest that PKB and PhdA lie downstream from PI3K and control different downstream effector pathways that are essential for proper chemotaxis.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) are dual specificity lipid and protein kinases. While the lipid-dependent PI3K downstream signaling is well characterized, little is known about PI3K protein kinase signaling and structural determinants of lipid substrate specificity across the various PI3K classes. Here we show that sequences C-terminal to the PI3K ATP-binding site determine the lipid substrate specificity of the class IA PI3Kalpha (p85/p110alpha). Transfer of such activation loop sequences from class II PI3Ks, class III PI3Ks, and a related mammalian target of rapamycin (FRAP) into p110alpha turns the lipid substrate specificity of the resulting hybrid protein into that of the donor protein, while leaving the protein kinase activity unaffected. All resulting hybrids lacked the ability to produce phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate in intact cells. Amino acid substitutions and structure modeling showed that two conserved positively charged (Lys and Arg) residues in the activation loop are crucial for the functionality of class I PI3Ks as phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate kinases. By transient transfecion of 293 cells, we show that p110alpha hybrids, although unable to support lipid-dependent PI3K signaling, such as activation of protein kinase B/Akt and p70(S6k), retain the capability to associate with and phosphorylate insulin receptor substrate-1, with the same specificity and higher efficacy than wild type PI3Kalpha. Our data lay the basis for the understanding of the class I PI3K substrate selectivity and for the use of PI3Kalpha hybrids to dissect PI3Kalpha function as lipid and protein kinase.

Abstract
Rho proteins and phosphatidylinositide 3-kinases (PI 3-kinases) have been widely implicated in regulating cell motility both in cultured cells and in animal models. Monocytes are recruited from the bloodstream in response to inflammatory signals, and migrate across the endothelial barrier into the tissues, where they differentiate into macrophages and phagocytose bacteria and cells. Studies of monocytes and macrophages have revealed that different Rho family members and PI 3-kinases are not functionally redundant but play unique and distinct roles in motile responses.

Abstract
Over the past ten years, our knowledge of the integral role that the phospho-inositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) and their 3'-phosphorylated lipid products (3'-phosphorylated phosphoinositides; 3P-PIs) play in the mediation of signal transduction, cytoskeletal rearrangements and membrane trafficking has expanded considerably. They are now known to be involved in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, mobility, proliferation and survival and hence they have become a potential target for the control of the growth and spread of cancer cells. More recently, the correlation of the multiplicity of isomers (both catalytic and regulatory) within the different classes of the PI3Ks with their functional relevance has become possible. This, combined with our further understanding of the protein recognition patterns for their different 3P-PIs and the newly-described pathways in the control of the levels of these by dephosphorylation, has provided new aspects and areas for interference in these multiple PI3K signalling pathways. However, in the search for effective, non-toxic, drugs for use in the treatment of cancers, these individual targets for PI3K inhibition need to be further correlated with the specific in vivo effects on cell survival, invasivity and metastatic potential. Here, the range of PI3K inhibition targets are discussed in the light of recent experimental findings, with a view to the exploitation of their specificities in new approaches to effective cancer treatments based on PI3K activity inhibition.

Abstract
The chemokines and their receptors have been receiving exceptional attention in recent years following the discoveries that some chemokines could specifically block human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection and that certain chemokine receptors were the long-sought coreceptors which, along with CD4, are required for the productive entry of HIV-1 and HIV-2 isolates. Several chemokine receptors or orphan chemokine receptor-like molecules can support the entry of various viral strains, but the clinical significance of the CXCR4 and CCR5 coreceptors appear to overshadow a critical role for any of the other coreceptors and all HIV-1 and HIV-2 strains best employ one or both of these coreceptors. Binding of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp120 subunit to CD4 and/or an appropriate chemokine receptor triggers conformational changes in the envelope glycoprotein oligomer that allow it to facilitate the fusion of the viral and host cell membranes. During these interactions, gp120 appears to be capable of inducing a variety of signaling events, all of which are still not defined in detail. In addition, the more recently observed dichotomous effects, of both inhibition and enhancement, that chemokines and their receptor signaling events elicit on the HIV-1 entry and replication processes has once again highlighted the intricate and complex balance of factors that govern the pathogenic process. Here, we will review and discuss these new observations summarizing the potential significance these processes may have in HIV-1 infection. Understanding the complexities and significance of the signaling processes that the chemokines and viral products induce may substantially enhance our understanding of HIV-1 pathogenesis, and perhaps facilitate the discovery of new ways for the prevention and treatment of HIV-1 disease.
