Abstract
PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase) alpha has been implicated in phagocytosis and fluid-phase pinocytosis in macrophages. The subtype-specific role of PI3K in these processes is poorly understood. To elucidate this issue, we made Raw 264.7 cells (a mouse leukaemic monocyte-macrophage cell line) deficient in each of the class-I PI3K catalytic subunits: p110alpha, p110beta, p110delta and p110gamma. Among these cells, only the p110alpha-deficient cells exhibited lower phagocytosis of opsonized and non-opsonized zymosan. The p110alpha-deficient cells also showed the impaired phagocytosis of IgG-opsonized erythrocytes and the impaired fluid-phase pinocytosis of dextran (molecular mass of 40 kDa). Receptor-mediated pinocytosis of DiI (1,1'-dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylindocarbocyanine perchlorate)-labelled acetylated low-density lipoprotein and fluid-phase pinocytosis of Lucifer Yellow (molecular mass of 500 Da) were resistant to p110alpha depletion. None of these processes were impaired in cells lacking p110beta, p110delta or p110gamma, but were susceptible to a pan-PI3K inhibitor wortmannin. In cells deficient in the enzymes catalysing PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 breakdown [PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10) or SHIP-1 (Src-homology-2-domain-containing inositol phosphatase-1)], uptake of IgG-opsonized particles was enhanced. These results indicated that phagocytosis and fluid-phase pinocytosis of larger molecules are dependent on the lipid kinase activity of p110alpha, whereas pinocytosis via clathrin-coated and small non-coated vesicles may depend on subtypes of PI3Ks other than class I.

Abstract
Cryptococcus neoformans is the only encapsulated human-pathogenic fungus and a facultative intracellular pathogen that can reside in macrophages without host cell lysis. In the present study, we investigated how phagocytosis of C. neoformans affected the macrophage response to chemoattractants such as fractalkine (FKN) (CX3CL1) and colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1). Phagocytosis of immunoglobulin G (IgG)-opsonized C. neoformans and IgG- or C3bi-opsonized sheep erythrocytes was performed using a RAW 264.7 subline (LR5 cells) and bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM). The chemotactic response to FKN or CSF-1 was quantitated by measurement of the formation of F-actin-enriched membrane protrusions (ruffles), which showed that FKN or CSF-1 stimulated strong transient ruffling in both LR5 cells and BMM. This stimulated cell ruffling was inhibited by phagocytosis in an intracellular-pathogen-number-dependent manner. The inhibition of ruffling was not simply a result of reduced membrane availability since membrane sequestration by sucrose treatment did not inhibit the ruffling response. The phagocytosis process was required to inhibit ruffling as BMM from Fc gamma (-/-) mice that bound C. neoformans but did not ingest it retained the ability to ruffle in response to chemoattractants. These results imply that the inhibition of FKN- or CSF-1-stimulated cell ruffling was a direct consequence of the phagocytosis process. Since cell ruffling is a prelude to chemotaxis, this observation links two functions of macrophages that are critical to host defense, chemotaxis and phagocytosis. Phagocytosis-induced chemotactic suppression may enhance host defense by keeping these antimicrobial effector cells at infected sites and reduce the likelihood of microbial spread by wandering macrophages containing infectious cargo.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides are lipids that are present in the cytoplasmic leaflet of a cell's plasma and internal membranes and play pivotal roles in the regulation of a wide variety of cellular processes. Phosphoinositides are molecularly diverse due to variable phosphorylation of the hydroxyl groups of their inositol rings. The rapid and reversible configuration of the seven known phosphoinositide species is controlled by a battery of phosphoinositide kinases and phosphoinositide phosphatases, which are thus critical for phosphoinositide isomer-specific localization and functions. Significantly, a given phosphoinositide generated by different isozymes of these phosphoinositide kinases and phosphatases can have different biological effects. In mammals, close to 50 genes encode the phosphoinositide kinases and phosphoinositide phosphatases that regulate phosphoinositide metabolism and thus allow cells to respond rapidly and effectively to ever-changing environmental cues. Understanding the distinct and overlapping functions of these phosphoinositide-metabolizing enzymes is important for our knowledge of both normal human physiology and the growing list of human diseases whose etiologies involve these proteins. This review summarizes the structural and biological properties of all the known mammalian phosphoinositide kinases and phosphoinositide phosphatases, as well as their associations with human disorders.

Abstract
Fc gamma receptor (Fc gammaR)-mediated phagocytosis is known to require tyrosine kinases (TKs). We identified c-Cbl and Cbl-b as proteins that undergo tyrosine phosphorylation during phagocytosis. Cbl-deficient macrophages displayed enhanced Fc gammaR-mediated signaling and phagocytosis. Surprisingly, binding of IgG-coated targets (EIgG) was also enhanced. c-Cbl-deficient macrophages expressed less Fc gammaRIIb, the inhibitory Fc gamma receptor; however, this did not account for enhanced target binding. We isolated the function of one Fc receptor isoform, Fc gammaRI, using IgG2a-coated targets (EIgG2a). Cbl-deficient macrophages demonstrated a disproportionate increase in binding EIgG2a, suggesting that signal strength regulates binding efficiency toward opsonized targets. In resting cells, Fc gammaRI colocalized with the Src family TK Hck in F-actin-rich structures, which was enhanced in Cbl-deficient macrophages. Target binding was sensitive to TK inhibitors, profoundly inhibited following depletion of cholesterol, and ablated at 4 degrees C or in the presence of inhibitors of actin polymerization. Sensitivity of EIgG binding to cytoskeletal disruption was inversely proportional to opsonin density. These findings challenge the view that Fc gammaR-mediated binding is a passive event. They suggest that dynamic engagement of TKs and the cytoskeleton enables macrophages to serve as cellular "Venus fly traps", with the capacity to capture phagocytic targets under conditions of limiting opsonin density.

Abstract
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) are the most abundant white cell in humans and an essential component of the innate immune system. PMNs are typically the first type of leukocyte recruited to sites of infection or areas of inflammation. Ingestion of microorganisms triggers production of reactive oxygen species and fusion of cytoplasmic granules with forming phagosomes, leading to effective killing of ingested microbes. Phagocytosis of bacteria typically accelerates neutrophil apoptosis, which ultimately promotes the resolution of infection. However, some bacterial pathogens alter PMN apoptosis to survive and thereby cause disease. Herein, we review PMN apoptosis and the ability of microorganisms to alter this important process.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides are membrane-bound signalling molecules that regulate cell proliferation and survival, cytoskeletal reorganization and vesicular trafficking by recruiting effector proteins to cellular membranes. Growth factor or insulin stimulation induces a canonical cascade resulting in the transient phosphorylation of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) by PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase) to form PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3), which is rapidly dephosphorylated either by PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10) back to PtdIns(4,5)P(2), or by the 5-ptases (inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases), generating PtdIns(3,4)P(2). The 5-ptases also hydrolyse PtdIns(4,5)P(2), forming PtdIns4P. Ten mammalian 5-ptases have been identified, which share a catalytic mechanism similar to that of the apurinic/apyrimidinic endonucleases. Gene-targeted deletion of 5-ptases in mice has revealed that these enzymes regulate haemopoietic cell proliferation, synaptic vesicle recycling, insulin signalling, endocytosis, vesicular trafficking and actin polymerization. Several studies have revealed that the molecular basis of Lowe's syndrome is due to mutations in the 5-ptase OCRL (oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe). Futhermore, the 5-ptases SHIP [SH2 (Src homology 2)-domain-containing inositol phosphatase] 2, SKIP (skeletal muscle- and kidney-enriched inositol phosphatase) and 72-5ptase (72 kDa 5-ptase)/Type IV/Inpp5e (inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase E) are implicated in negatively regulating insulin signalling and glucose homoeostasis in specific tissues. SHIP2 polymorphisms are associated with a predisposition to insulin resistance. Gene profiling studies have identified changes in the expression of various 5-ptases in specific cancers. In addition, 5-ptases such as SHIP1, SHIP2 and 72-5ptase/Type IV/Inpp5e regulate macrophage phagocytosis, and SHIP1 also controls haemopoietic cell proliferation. Therefore the 5-ptases are a significant family of signal-modulating enzymes that govern a plethora of cellular functions by regulating the levels of specific phosphoinositides. Emerging studies have implicated their loss or gain of function in human disease.

Abstract
The removal of degenerated myelin is essential for repair in Wallerian degeneration that follows traumatic injury to axons and in autoimmune demyelinating diseases (e.g., multiple sclerosis). Microglia can remove degenerated myelin through phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)-dependent phagocytosis mediated by complement receptor-3 (CR3/MAC-1) and scavenger receptor-AI/II (SRAI/II). Paradoxically, these receptors are expressed in microglia after injury but myelin is not phagocytosed. Additionally, Galectin-3/MAC-2 is expressed in microglia that phagocytose but not in microglia that do not phagocytose, suggesting that Galectin-3/MAC-2 is instrumental in activating phagocytosis. S-trans, trans-farnesylthiosalicylic (FTS), which inhibits Galectin-3/MAC-2 dependent activation of PI3K through Ras, inhibited phagocytosis. K-Ras-GTP levels and PI3K activity increased during normal phagocytosis and decreased during FTS-inhibited phagocytosis. Galectin-3/MAC-2, which binds and stabilizes active Ras, coimmunoprecipitated with Ras and levels of the coimmunoprecipitate increased during normal phagocytosis. A role for Galectin-3/MAC-2 dependent activation of PI3K through Ras, mostly K-Ras, is thus suggested. An explanation may thus be offered for deficient phagocytosis by microglia that express CR3/MAC-1 and SRAI/II without Galectin-3/MAC-2 and efficient phagocytosis when CR3/MAC-1 and SRAI/II are co-expressed with Galectin-3/MAC-2.

Abstract
The production and deployment of phagocytes are central functions of the hematopoietic system. In the 1950s, radioisotopic studies demonstrated the high production rate and short lifespan of neutrophils and allowed researchers to follow the monocytes as they moved from the marrow through the blood to become tissue macrophages, histiocytes, and dendritic cells. Subsequently, the discovery of the colony-stimulating factors greatly improved understanding the regulation of phagocyte production. The discovery of the microbicidal myeloperoxidase-H2O2-halide system and the importance of NADPH oxidase to the generation of H2O2 also stimulated intense interest in phagocyte disorders. More recent research has focused on membrane receptors and the dynamics of the responses of phagocytes to external factors including immunoglobulins, complement proteins, cytokines, chemokines, integrins, and selectins. Phagocytes express toll-like receptors that aid in the clearance of a wide range of microbial pathogens and their products. Phagocytes are also important sources of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines, thus participating in host defenses through a variety of mechanisms. Over the last 50 years, many genetic and molecular disorders of phagocytes have been identified, leading to improved diagnosis and treatment of conditions which predispose patients to the risk of recurrent fevers and infectious diseases.

Abstract
Although the inositol phosphatase SHIP-1 is generally thought to inhibit signaling for Fc receptor-mediated phagocytosis, the product of its activity, phosphatidylinositol 3,4 bisphosphate (PI(3,4)P(2)), has been implicated in activation of the NADPH oxidase. This suggests that SHIP-1 positively regulates the generation of reactive oxygen species after phagocytosis. To examine how SHIP-1 activity contributes to Fc receptor-mediated phagocytosis, we measured and compared phospholipid dynamics, membrane trafficking, and the oxidative burst in macrophages from SHIP-1-deficient and wild-type mice. SHIP-1-deficient macrophages showed significantly elevated ratios of PI(3,4,5)P(3) to PI(3,4)P(2) on phagosomal membranes. Imaging reactive oxygen intermediate activities in phagosomes revealed decreased early NADPH oxidase activity in SHIP-1-deficient macrophages. SHIP-1 deficiency also altered later stages of phagosome maturation, as indicated by the persistent elevation of PI(3)P and the early localization of Rab5a to phagosomes. These direct measurements of individual organelles indicate that phagosomal SHIP-1 enhances the early oxidative burst through localized alteration of the membrane 3'-phosphoinositide composition.

Abstract
Leishmaniases are a major international public health problem, and macrophages are crucial for host resistance to this parasite. To determine if phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome ten (Pten), a negative regulator of the PI3K pathway, plays a role in macrophage-mediated resistance to Leishmania, we generated C57BL/6 mice lacking Pten specifically in macrophages (LysMCrePten(flox/flox) mice). Examination of lesions resulting from Leishmania major infection showed that LysMCrePten(flox/flox) mice were more susceptible to the parasite than wild-type (WT) mice in the early phase of the infection, but were eventually able to eliminate the pathogen. In vitro Pten-deficient macrophages showed a reduced ability to kill parasites in response to IFN-gamma treatment, possibly because the mutant cells exhibited decreased TNF secretion that correlated with reductions in inducible nitric oxide synthase expression and nitric oxide production. In response to various TLR ligands, Pten-deficient macrophages produced less TNF and IL-12 but more IL-10 than WT cells. However, analysis of cells in the lymph nodes draining L. major inoculation sites indicated that both LysMCrePten(flox/flox) and WT mice developed normal Th1 responses following L. major infection, in line with the ability of LysMCrePten(flox/flox) mice to eventually eliminate the parasite. Our results indicate that the efficient clearance of intracellular parasites requires Pten in macrophages.

Abstract
Phagocytosis is a key component of the innate immune response and of the clearance of apoptotic bodies. Phagosome formation and subsequent maturation require extensive cytoskeletal rearrangement and precisely choreographed vesicular fusion and fission events. The objectives of this review are to highlight the functional importance of lipids in the phagocytic process, to discuss how pathogenic microorganisms can in some cases manipulate host lipid metabolism to either co-opt or disrupt phagosome maturation and promote their own survival, and to describe how defective phagosomal lipid metabolism can result in disease.

Abstract
Francisella tularensis is a highly infectious, Gram-negative intra-cellular pathogen that can cause the zoonotic disease tularemia. Although the receptors critical for internalization of Francisella by macrophages are beginning to be defined, the identity of the downstream signaling pathways essential for the engulfment are not yet identified. In this study we have tested the role of Syk in the phagocytosis of Francisella. We report that Syk is activated during Francisella infection and is critical for the uptake of the organisms. Pharmacologic inhibition of Syk almost completely abrogated uptake, whereas the overexpression of Syk significantly enhanced uptake. However, Syk appears to be dispensable during initial host-pathogen contact. Further analyses of the molecular mechanism of Syk influence on Francisella uptake revealed that the MAPK Erk but not the phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway is the downstream effector of Syk. Thus, the inhibition of Erk in Syk-overexpressing cells or the inhibition of Syk in Erk-overexpressing cells led to a significant attenuation of uptake. Collectively, these data identify Syk and Erk as key players in the phagocytosis of Francisella.

Abstract
PGE2 has important inhibitory effects on the macrophage host defense functions of phagocytosis and killing, yet the molecular mechanisms involved remain to be fully elucidated. PGE2 causes an elevation of cAMP in alveolar macrophages (AMs), which in turn activates the cAMP effector targets, protein kinase A and the exchange protein activated by cAMP (Epac)-1. We now report that FcgammaR-induced PI3K/Akt and ERK-1/2 activation are inhibited by PGE2 in AMs. By specifically inhibiting the phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) in AMs, we attenuated the inhibitory effects of both PGE2 and a specific Epac-1 agonist (8-pCPT-2'-O-Me-cAMP) on FcgammaR-mediated phagocytosis and Akt/ERK-1/2 activation; PTEN inhibition also decreased PGE2-induced suppression of bacterial killing by AMs. Moreover, PGE2 and the Epac-1 agonist induced an increase in PTEN lipid phosphatase activity, and this was associated with decreased tyrosine phosphorylation on PTEN-a mechanism known to regulate PTEN activity. Using a pharmacological approach, we demonstrated a role for Src homology 2-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase-1 in the PGE2-induced tyrosine dephosphorylation of PTEN. Collectively, these data reveal that PGE2, via Epac-1 activation, enhances SHP-1 activity, resulting in increased PTEN activity. We suggest that this mechanism contributes to the ability of PGE2 to inhibit PI3K-dependent innate immune signaling in primary macrophages.

Abstract
We evaluated the ability of flagellin, a highly effective mucosal adjuvant in mice and non-human primates, to promote mucosal innate and adaptive immunity in aged mice. We found that intratracheal instillation of flagellin induced a stronger respiratory innate response in aged mice than in young mice, and that intranasal instillation of flagellin was equally effective at triggering recruitment of T and B lymphocytes to the draining lymph nodes of young and aged mice. Intranasal immunization of aged mice with flagellin and the Yersinia pestis protein F1 promoted specific IgG and IgA production, but at lower levels and lower avidities than in young mice. Although intranasal instillation of flagellin and F1 antigen increased germinal center formation and size in young mice, it did not do so in aged mice. Our findings are consistent with the conclusion that flagellin can promote adaptive immune responses in aged mice, but at a less robust level than in young mice.

Abstract
Macrophages phagocytose particles to resolve infections and remove apoptotic cells. Phosphoinositide 3-kinase generates phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3] is restricted to the phagocytic cup, promoting phagocytosis. The PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase (5-ptase) Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing inositol-5-phosphatase 1 (SHIP1) inhibits phagocytosis. We report here that another PtdIns(3,4,5)P3-5-ptase, the 72-kDa-5-phosphatase (72-5ptase), inhibits Fcγ receptor (FcγR)– but not complement receptor 3 (CR3)–mediated phagocytosis, affecting pseudopod extension and phagosome closure. In contrast, SHIP1 inhibited FcγR and CR3 phagocytosis with greater effects on CR3-stimulated phagocytosis. The 72-5ptase and SHIP1 were both dynamically recruited to FcγR-stimulated phagocytic cups, but only SHIP1 was recruited to CR3-stimulated phagocytic cups. To determine whether 5-ptases focally degrade PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 at the phagocytic cup after specific stimuli, time-lapse imaging of specific biosensors was performed. Transfection of dominant-negative 72-5ptase or 72-5ptase small interfering RNA (siRNA) resulted in amplified and prolonged PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 at the phagocytic cup in response to FcγR- but not CR3-stimulation. In contrast, macrophages from Ship1−/−/AktPH-GFP transgenic mice exhibited increased and sustained PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 at the cup in response to CR3 activation, with minimal changes to FcγR activation. Therefore, 72-5ptase and SHIP1 exhibit specificity in regulating FcγR- versus CR3-stimulated phagocytosis by controlling the amplitude and duration of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 at the phagocytic cup.

Abstract
Phagocytosis is an important component of innate and adaptive immunity. The formation of phagosomes and the subsequent maturation that capacitates them for pathogen elimination and antigen presentation are complex processes that involve signal transduction, cytoskeletal reorganization, and membrane remodeling. Lipids are increasingly appreciated to play a crucial role in these events. Sphingolipids, cholesterol, and glycerophospholipids, notably the phosphoinositides, are required for the segregation of signaling microdomains and for the generation of second messengers. They are also instrumental in the remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton and in directing membrane traffic. They accomplish these feats by congregating into liquid-ordered domains, by generating active metabolites that activate receptors, and by recruiting and anchoring specific protein ligands to the membrane, often altering their conformation and catalytic activity. A less appreciated role of acidic phospholipids is their contribution to the negative surface charge of the inner leaflet of the plasmalemma. The unique negativity of the inner aspect of the plasma membrane serves to attract and anchor key signaling and effector molecules that are required to initiate phagosome formation. Conversely, the loss of charge that accompanies phospholipid metabolism as phagosomes seal facilitates the dissociation of proteins and the termination of signaling and cytoskeleton assembly. In this manner, lipids provide a binary electrostatic switch to control phagocytosis.

Abstract
A common signaling pathway is known to operate downstream of immunoreceptors, such as the T-cell, B-cell, or Fc receptors, following engagement by their respective ligands. This pathway involves Src family kinase-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs) that recruit and activate spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) or Zap70 (zeta-associated protein of 70 kDa) kinases, which in turn activate a variety of downstream signals. Evidence has been building from a variety of sources, particularly mouse models, that molecules involved in the immunoreceptor signaling pathway are also required for signals initiated by integrins. Integrins are the major cell surface receptors that mediate adhesion of leukocytes to a variety of extracellular matrix proteins and counter-receptors expressed on endothelial cells. Integrin ligation is a critical step in the activation of leukocyte effector functions (such as neutrophil degranulation or lymphocyte proliferation). Integrin signaling through pathways common to those utilized by immunoreceptors provides a mechanism by which leukocyte adhesion can regulate activation of cellular responses. In animal models, integrin-mediated signal transduction plays a critical role in inflammatory disease. In this review, we discuss the convergence of immunoreceptor and integrin signaling, focusing on how these pathways modulate leukocyte activation.

Abstract
In macrophages, enzymes that synthesize or hydrolyze phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate [PI(3,4,5)P(3)] regulate Fcgamma receptor-mediated phagocytosis. Inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) or overexpression of the lipid phosphatases phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) and Src homology 2 domain-containing inositol phosphatase (SHIP-1), which hydrolyze PI(3,4,5)P(3) to phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate [PI(3,4)P(2)], respectively, inhibit phagocytosis in macrophages. To examine how these enzymes regulate phagosome formation, the distributions of yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) chimeras of enzymes and pleckstrin homology (PH) domains specific for their substrates and products were analyzed quantitatively. PTEN-YFP did not localize to phagosomes, suggesting that PTEN regulates phagocytosis globally within the macrophage. SHIP1-YFP and p85-YFP were recruited to forming phagosomes. SHIP1-YFP sequestered to the leading edge and dissociated from phagocytic cups earlier than did p85-cyan fluorescent protein, indicating that SHIP-1 inhibitory activities are restricted to the early stages of phagocytosis. PH domain chimeras indicated that early during phagocytosis, PI(3,4,5)P(3) was slightly more abundant than PI(3,4)P(2) at the leading edge of the forming cup. These results support a model in which phagosomal PI3K generates PI(3,4,5)P(3) necessary for later stages of phagocytosis, PTEN determines whether those late stages can occur, and SHIP-1 regulates when and where they occur by transiently suppressing PI(3,4,5)P(3)-dependent activities necessary for completion of phagocytosis.

Abstract
Polygenic autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. In recent years, functionally important genetic polymorphisms conferring susceptibility to SLE have been identified, but the evolutionary pressures driving their retention in the gene pool remain elusive. A defunctioning, SLE-associated polymorphism of the inhibitory receptor FcgammaRIIb is found at an increased frequency in African and Asian populations, broadly corresponding to areas where malaria is endemic. Here, we show that FcgammaRIIb-deficient mice have increased clearance of malarial parasites (Plasmodium chabaudi chabaudi) and develop less severe disease. In vitro, the human lupus associated FcgammaRIIb polymorphism enhances phagocytosis of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes. These results demonstrate that FcgammaRIIb is important in controlling the immune response to malarial parasites and suggests that the higher frequency of human FcgammaRIIb polymorphisms predisposing to SLE in Asians and Africans may be maintained because these variants reduce susceptibility to malaria.

Abstract
Mononuclear phagocytes are critical modulators and effectors of innate and adaptive immune responses, and PI-3Ks have been shown to be multifunctional monocyte regulators. The PI-3K family includes eight catalytic isoforms, and only limited information is available about how these contribute to fine specificity in monocyte cell regulation. We examined the regulation of phagocytosis, the phagocyte oxidative burst, and LPS-induced cytokine production by human monocytic cells deficient in p110alpha PI-3K. We observed that p110alpha PI-3K was required for phagocytosis of IgG-opsonized and nonopsonized zymosan in differentiated THP-1 cells, and the latter was inhibitable by mannose. In contrast, p110alpha PI-3K was not required for ingestion serum-opsonized zymosan. Taken together, these results suggest that FcgammaR- and mannose receptor-mediated phagocytosis are p110alpha-dependent, whereas CR3-mediated phagocytosis involves a distinct isoform. It is notable that the phagocyte oxidative burst induced in response to PMA or opsonized zymosan was also found to be dependent on p110alpha in THP-1 cells. Furthermore, p110alpha was observed to exert selective and bidirectional effects on the secretion of pivotal cytokines. Incubation of p110alpha-deficient THP-1 cells with LPS showed that p110alpha was required for IL-12p40 and IL-6 production, whereas it negatively regulated the production of TNF-alpha and IL-10. Cells deficient in p110alpha also exhibited enhanced p38 MAPK, JNK, and NF-kappaB phosphorylation. Thus, p110alpha PI-3K appears to uniquely regulate important monocyte functions, where other PI-3K isoforms are uninvolved or unable to fully compensate.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides are involved in endocytosis in both mammalian cells and the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum. Dd5P4 is the Dictyostelium homolog of human OCRL (oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe); both have a RhoGAP domain and a 5-phosphatase domain that acts on phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate/phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3). Inactivation of Dd5P4 inhibits growth on liquid medium and on bacteria. Dd5p4-null cells are impaired in phagocytosis of yeast cells. In wild-type cells, PI(3,4,5)P3 is formed and converted to PI(3,4)P2 just before closure of the phagocytic cup. In dd5p4-null cells, a phagocytic cup is formed upon contact with the yeast cell, and PI(3,4,5)P3 is still produced, but the phagocytic cup does not close. We suggest that Dd5P4 regulates the conversion of PI(3,4,5)P3 to PI(3,4)P2 and that this conversion is essential for closure of the phagocytic cup. Phylogenetic analysis of OCRL-like 5-phosphatases with RhoGAP domains reveal that D. discoideum Dd5P4 is a surprisingly close homolog of human OCRL, the protein responsible for Lowe syndrome. We expressed human OCRL in dd5p4-null cells. Growth on bacteria and axenic medium is largely restored, whereas the rate of phagocytosis of yeast cells is partly restored, indicating that human OCRL can functionally replace Dictyostelium Dd5P4.

Abstract
Fcgamma receptors are among the best-studied phagocytic receptors. The key features of Fcgamma receptor-mediated phagocytosis include phagocytic cup formation by extensive actin cytoskeletal rearrangements, particle engulfment, and the release of proinflammatory mediators such as cytokines and reactive oxygen species. These events are elegantly regulated by the simultaneous engagement of activating and inhibitory Fcgamma receptors and by intracellular signaling molecules. Extensive studies in the past several years have defined the molecular mechanisms of the phagocytic process. The purpose of this review is to revisit some of the well-established signaling pathways as well as to summarize the new findings in this field.

Abstract
Using a novel mAb specific for mouse Ly49B, we report here that Ly49B, the last remaining member of the C57 Ly49 family to be characterized, is expressed at low levels on approximately 1.5% of spleen cells, none which are NK cells or T cells but which instead belong to several distinct subpopulations of myeloid cells defined by expression of CD11b and different levels of Gr1. Much larger proportions of bone marrow and peritoneal cells expressed Ly49B, all being CD11b+ and comprising multiple subpopulations defined by light scatter, F4/80, and Gr1 expression. Costaining for Ly49Q, also expressed on myeloid cells, revealed that Ly49B and Ly49Q were most strongly expressed on nonoverlapping subpopulations, Ly49Q(high) cells being mostly B220+CD4+ and/or CD8+, Ly49B+ cells lacking these markers. Myeloid populations that developed from bone marrow progenitors in vitro frequently coexpressed both Ly49B and Ly49Q, and Ly49B expression could be up-regulated by LPS, alpha-IFN, and gamma-IFN, often independently of Ly49Q. PCR analysis revealed that cultured NK cells and T cells contained Ly49B transcripts, and Ly49B expression could be detected on NK cells cultured in IL-12 plus IL-18, and on an immature NK cell line. Immunohistochemical studies showed that Ly49B expression in tissues overlapped with but was distinct from that of all other myeloid molecules examined, being particularly prominent in the lamina propria and dome of Peyer's patches, implicating an important role of Ly49B in gut immunobiology. In transfected cells, Ly49B was found to associate with SHP-1, SHP-2, and SHIP in a manner strongly regulated by intracellular phosphorylation events.

Abstract
CSF-1 is the primary mononuclear phagocyte and osteoclast growth factor. Autocrine regulation by CSF-1 has been reported in macrophages during inflammatory responses and in neoplastic cells. To investigate whether inflammatory disease or neoplasia was the dominant consequence of autocrine regulation by CSF-1 in CSF-1 receptor (CSF-1R)-expressing cells, we created mice that express CSF-1 under the control of the CSF-1R promoter/first intron driver [transgene TgN(Csf1r-Csf1)Ers (TgRC) mice], which have reduced thymic size, a short lifetime, and low body weight and develop osteoporosis. In 4-week-old TgRC mice, osteoclast numbers are elevated, and macrophage densities are increased in bone marrow, spleen, liver, and brain. Cultured TgRC macrophages express CSF-1 and proliferate without exogenous CSF-1 and in the presence of neutralizing antimouse CSF-1 antibody. Compared with macrophages from nontransgenic littermates, TgRC macrophages exhibit a stellate morphology, express elevated mRNAs for proinflammatory cytokines, and despite a lower, steady-state cytokine secretion, secrete elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines in response to LPS, indicating that TgRC macrophages are functionally primed through the CSF-1R. Thus, autocrine regulation of CSF-1R-expressing cells by CSF-1 leads to a severe phenotype that emphasizes the importance of the known, local production of CSF-1 in inflammatory disease.

Abstract
Francisella tularensis, a Gram-negative facultative intracellular pathogen infecting principally macrophages and monocytes, is the etiological agent of tularemia. Macrophage responses to F. tularensis infection include the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-12, which is critical for immunity against infection. Molecular mechanisms regulating production of these inflammatory mediators are poorly understood. Herein we report that the SH2 domain-containing inositol phosphatase (SHIP) is phosphorylated upon infection of primary murine macrophages with the genetically related F. novicida, and negatively regulates F. novicida-induced cytokine production. Analyses of the molecular details revealed that in addition to activating the MAP kinases, F. novicida infection also activated the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway in these cells. Interestingly, SHIP-deficient macrophages displayed enhanced Akt activation upon F. novicida infection, suggesting elevated PI3K-dependent activation pathways in absence of SHIP. Inhibition of PI3K/Akt resulted in suppression of F. novicida-induced cytokine production through the inhibition of NFkappaB. Consistently, macrophages lacking SHIP displayed enhanced NFkappaB-driven gene transcription, whereas overexpression of SHIP led to decreased NFkappaB activation. Thus, we propose that SHIP negatively regulates F. novicida-induced inflammatory cytokine response by antagonizing the PI3K/Akt pathway and suppressing NFkappaB-mediated gene transcription. A detailed analysis of phosphoinositide signaling may provide valuable clues for better understanding the pathogenesis of tularemia.

Abstract
Phagocytosis, the engulfment of particles, mediates the elimination of invading pathogens as well as the clearance of apoptotic cells. Ingested particles reside within a vacuole or phagosome, where they are eventually destroyed and digested. The phagosomal lumen acquires microbicidal and digestive properties through interaction with various components of the endocytic pathway, a process known as maturation. Lipids are known to have numerous roles in phagosome formation and maturation; recent developments in the design of lipid-specific probes and in high-resolution imaging have revealed that lipids, notably phosphoinositides, are involved in signaling, actin assembly and the recruitment of molecular motors to sites of ingestion. In addition, phosphoinositides and other lipids also regulate multiple membrane budding, fission and fusion events required for maturation.

Abstract
Complement-receptor-3 (CR3/MAC-1), scavenger-receptor-AI/II (SRAI/II), and Fcgamma-receptor (FcgammaR) can mediate myelin phagocytosis in macrophages and microglia. Paradoxically, after injury to CNS axons these receptors are expressed but myelin is not phagocytosed, suggesting that phagocytosis is subject to regulation between efficient and inefficient states. In the present work, we focus on CR3/MAC-1 and SRAI/II-mediated myelin phagocytosis. Phagocytosis by CR3/MAC-1 and SRAI/II was inhibited by cPKC inhibitor Go-6976, general-PKC inhibitors Ro-318220 and calphostin-C, and BAPTA/AM, which chelates intracellular Ca2+ required for cPKC activation. Signaling/activation by cPKC are thus suggested. PMA, which mimics diacylglycerol (DAG) as an activator of cPKC, novel-PKC (nPKC), and non-PKC DAG-driven molecule(s), produced a dose-dependent dual effect on phagocytosis by CR3/MAC-1 and SRAI/II, i.e., augmentation at low concentrations and inhibition at high concentrations. Inhibition of phagocytosis by CR3/MAC-1 was enhanced by combining inhibiting concentrations of PMA with PKC inhibitors Go-6976 or Ro-318220, suggesting inhibition by PMA/DAG-driven non-PKC molecule(s). In contrast, inhibition of phagocytosis by SRAI/II was enhanced by combining inhibiting concentrations of PMA with cPKC inhibitor Go-6976 but not with general-PKC inhibitor Ro-318220, suggesting inhibition by nPKC. Phagocytosis by CR3/MAC-1 and SRAI/II was further inhibited by PI3K inhibitors wortmannin and LY-294002 and PLCgamma inhibitor U-73122. Altogether, our observations suggest that CR3/MAC-1 and SRAI/II-mediated myelin phagocytosis share activation by PI3K, PLCgamma and cPKC. The two differ, however, in that non-PKC DAG-driven molecule(s) inhibit CR3/MAC-1-mediated phagocytosis, whereas nPKC inhibit SRAI/II-mediated phagocytosis. Each of these signaling steps may be targeted for regulating CR3/MAC-1 and/or SRAI/II-mediated phagocytosis between efficient and inefficient states.

Abstract
Phagocytosis of IgG-coated particles via FcgammaR is accompanied by the generation of superoxide and inflammatory cytokines, which can cause collateral tissue damage in the absence of regulation. Molecular mechanisms regulating these phagocytosis-associated events are not known. SHIP is an inositol phosphatase that downregulates PI3K-mediated activation events. Here, we have examined the role of SHIP in FcgammaR-induced production of superoxide and inflammatory cytokines. We report that primary SHIP-deficient bone marrow macrophages produce elevated levels of superoxide upon FcgammaR clustering. Analysis of the molecular mechanism revealed that SHIP regulates upstream Rac-GTP binding, an obligatory event for superoxide production. Likewise, SHIP-deficient macrophages displayed enhanced IL-1beta and IL-6 production in response to FcgammaR clustering. Interestingly, whereas IL-6 production required activation of both PI3K and Ras/Erk pathways, IL-1beta production was dependent only on Ras/Erk activation, suggesting that SHIP may also regulate the Ras/Erk pathway in macrophages. Consistently, SHIP-deficient macrophages displayed enhanced activation of Erk upon FcgammaR clustering. Inhibition of Ras/Erk or PI3K suppressed the enhanced production of IL-6 in SHIP-deficient macrophages. In contrast, inhibition of Ras/Erk, but not PI3K, suppressed IL-1beta production in these cells. Together, these data demonstrate that SHIP regulates phagocytosis-associated events through the inhibition of PI3K and Ras/Erk pathways.

Abstract
FcgammaR-mediated phagocytosis of IgG-coated particles is a complex process involving the activation of multiple signaling enzymes and is regulated by the inositol phosphatases PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10) and SHIP-1 (Src homology [SH2] domain-containing inositol phosphatase). In a recent study we have demonstrated that SHIP-2, an inositol phosphatase with high-level homology to SHIP-1, is involved in FcgammaR signaling. However, it is not known whether SHIP-2 plays a role in modulating phagocytosis. In this study we have analyzed the role of SHIP-2 in FcgammaR-mediated phagocytosis using independent cell models that allow for manipulation of SHIP-2 function without influencing the highly homologous SHIP-1. We present evidence that SHIP-2 translocates to the site of phagocytosis and down-regulates FcgammaR-mediated phagocytosis. Our data indicate that SHIP-2 must contain both the N-terminal SH2 domain and the C-terminal proline-rich domain to mediate its inhibitory effect. The effect of SHIP-2 is independent of SHIP-1, as overexpression of dominant-negative SHIP-2 in SHIP-1-deficient primary macrophages resulted in enhanced phagocytic efficiency. Likewise, specific knockdown of SHIP-2 expression using siRNA resulted in enhanced phagocytosis. Finally, analysis of the molecular mechanism of SHIP-2 down-regulation of phagocytosis revealed that SHIP-2 down-regulates upstream activation of Rac. Thus, we conclude that SHIP-2 is a novel negative regulator of FcgammaR-mediated phagocytosis independent of SHIP-1.

Abstract
The inhibitory receptor FcgammaRIIb becomes tyrosine phosphorylated and associates with the inositol phosphatase SHIP to downregulate phagocytosis. The two splice variants of FcgammaRIIb, b1 and b2, are differentially expressed in hematopoetic cells. Both isoforms of FcgammaRIIb are expressed in human myeloid cells although FcgammaRIIb2 predominates. In murine B cells FcgammaRIIb2 associates with clathrin-coated pits and undergoes endocytosis, whereas FcgammaRIIbl is excluded from the coated pits, indicating that the two isoforms serve partially differing functions. In humans, there are conflicting reports with regard to the ability of FcgammaRIIb2 to become tyrosine phosphorylated, and the functional capacities of the two isoforms are poorly understood. We, and others, have previously reported that the expression of FcgammaRIIb is upregulated in human monocytes by the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-4. Here, we extend these findings to demonstrate that the IL-4-induced upregulation of FcgammaRIIb is synergistically enhanced by the addition of IL-10, both at the protein and the mRNA level. The upregulated receptors are functional as assessed by their ability to become tyrosine phosphorylated and to downregulate phagocytosis. Interestingly, both b1 and b2 isoforms are upregulated by anti-inflammatory cytokines. Transfection experiments expressing human FcgammaRIIbl or b2 in Raw 264.7 murine macrophage cells revealed that both isoforms are tyrosine phosphorylated and promote SHIP phosphorylation. Finally, both b1 and b2 isoforms of FcgammaRIIb downregulate phagocytosis to a similar extent. Thus we conclude that FcgammaRIIbl and b2 are both functional inhibitory receptors in the phagocytic process.

Abstract
We have shown previously that ulcerogenic (type I) strains of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) retard their entry into macrophages. However, the signaling pathways that regulate Hp phagocytosis are largely undefined. We show here that Hp strongly activated class IA phosphoinositide3-kinases (PI3Ks) in macrophages, coincident with phagocytosis, and endogenous p85 and active protein kinase Balpha accumulated on forming phagosomes. PI3K inhibitors, wortmannin and LY294002, inhibited phagocytosis of Hp in a dose-dependent manner, and blockade of engulfment correlated directly with loss of 3'-phosphoinositides in the membrane subjacent to attached bacteria. During uptake of large immunoglobulin G (IgG)-coated particles, PI3Ks regulate pseudopod extension and phagosome closure. In marked contrast, we show here that 3'-phosphoinositides regulated actin polymerization at sites of Hp uptake. Moreover, Hp and IgG beads activated distinct PI3K isoforms. Phagosomes containing IgG-coated particles accumulated 3'-phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 and Src homology 2 domain-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase, yet Hp phagosomes did not. Finally, rapid uptake of IgG-opsonized Hp or a less-virulent type II Hp was PI3K-independent. We conclude that Hp and IgG beads are ingested by distinct mechanisms and that PI3Ks regulate the actin cytoskeleton during slow phagocytosis of ulcerogenic Hp.

Abstract
Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing inositol-5-phosphatase 1 (SHIP1) plays important roles in negatively regulating the activation of immune cells primarily via the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI-3K) pathway by catalyzing the PI-3K product PtdIns-3,4,5P3 (phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate) into PtdIns-3,4P2. However, the role of SHIP1 in Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-mediated lipopolysaccharide (LPS) response remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that SHIP1 negatively regulates LPS-induced inflammatory response via both phosphatase activity-dependent and -independent mechanisms in macrophages. SHIP1 becomes tyrosine phosphorylated and up-regulated upon LPS stimulation in RAW264.7 macrophages. SHIP1-specific RNA-interfering and SHIP1 overexpression experiments demonstrate that SHIP1 inhibits LPS-induced tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) production by negatively regulating the LPS-induced combination between TLR4 and myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88); activation of Ras (p21(ras) protein), PI-3K, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), p38, and c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK); and degradation of IkappaB-alpha. SHIP1 also significantly inhibits LPS-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation in TLR4-reconstitited COS7 cells. Although SHIP1-mediated inhibition of PI-3K is dependent on its phosphatase activity, phosphatase activity-disrupted mutant SHIP1 remains inhibitory to LPS-induced TNF-alpha production. Neither disrupting phosphatase activity nor using the PI-3K pathway inhibitor LY294002 or wortmannin could significantly block SHIP1-mediated inhibition of LPS-induced ERK1/2, p38, and JNK activation and TNF-alpha production, demonstrating that SHIP1 inhibits LPS-induced activation of MAPKs and cytokine production primarily by a phosphatase activity- and PI-3K-independent mechanism.

Abstract
Phagocytosis is the mechanism used by specialized cells such as macrophages, dendritic cells and neutrophils to internalize, degrade and eventually present peptides derived from particulate antigens. This process relies on profound rearrangements of the actin cytoskeleton and the plasma membrane to engulf particles. Recent work has highlighted the early recruitment of internal membranes derived from endocytic compartments and from the endoplasmic reticulum to allow plasma membrane extension at the onset of phagocytosis. This ensures that the phagosome is rapidly provided with the machinery appropriate for later phagocytic functions, including particle degradation and antigen presentation.

Abstract
Phagocytosis by macrophages can be initiated by Fcgamma receptors (FcR) in membranes that bind to Fc regions of immunoglobulin G (IgG). Activated FcR transduce signals to cytoplasm, which regulate the internalization of IgG-coated particles into plasma membrane-derived vacuoles, phagosomes. Particles internalized by phagocytosis are much larger than FcR, which prompts questions of if and how the receptors are coordinated with each other. FcR-mediated signal transduction entails recruitment of proteins from cytoplasm to the receptor, largely via protein phosphorylation. These FcR signaling complexes then activate proteins that regulate actin, myosin, membrane fusion, and the production of reactive oxygen intermediates. Recent fluorescence microscopic studies of phagocytosis in macrophages indicate that signaling by FcR occurs as a sequence of distinct stages, evident in the spatial and temporal patterns of phosphoinositides, protein kinase C, and Rho-family GTPase activation on forming phagosomes. The coordination of these stages may be regulated by lipids or lipid-anchored proteins, which diffuse away from FcR complexes. Lateral diffusion of FcR-derived signals could integrate FcR-dependent responses over large areas of membrane in the forming phagosome.

Abstract
Phagocytosis and chemotaxis are receptor-mediated processes that require extensive rearrangements of the actin cytoskeleton, and are controlled by lipid second messengers such as phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3] and phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4)P2]. We used a panel of pleckstrin homology (PH) domains with distinct binding specificities for PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and PtdIns(3,4)P2 to study the spatiotemporal dynamics of these phosphoinositides in vivo. During phagocytosis and macropinocytosis PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels transiently increased at sites of engulfment, followed by a rapid PtdIns(3,4)P2 production round the phagosome/macropinosome upon its internalisation, suggesting that PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 is degraded to PtdIns(3,4)P2. PTEN null mutants, which are defective in phagocytosis, showed normal rates of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 degradation, but unexpectedly an accelerated PtdIns(3,4)P2 degradation. During chemotaxis to cAMP only PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 was formed in the plasma membrane, and no PtdIns(3,4)P2 was detectable, showing that all PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 was degraded by PTEN to PtdIns(4,5)P2. Furthermore, we showed that different PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 binding PH domains gave distinct spatial and temporal readouts of the same underlying PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 signal, enabling distinct biological responses to one signal.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides are short-lived lipids, whose production at specific membrane locations in the cell enables the tightly controlled recruitment or activation of diverse cellular effectors involved in processes such as cell motility or phagocytosis. Bacterial pathogens have evolved molecular mechanisms to subvert phosphoinositide metabolism in host cells, promoting (or blocking) their internalization into target tissues, and/or modifying the maturation fate of their proliferating compartments within the intracellular environment.

Abstract
The SHIP1 (SH2-containing inositol-5′-phosphatase 1) acts as a negative regulator of proliferation, survival and end cell activation in haemopoietic cells. It does so, at least in part, by translocating to membranes after extracellular stimulation and hydrolysing the phosphoinositide 3-kinase-generated second messenger, PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 to PtdIns(3,4)P2. SHIP1−/− mice have, as a result, an increased number of neutrophils and monocyte/macrophages because their progenitors display enhanced survival and proliferation. These mice also suffer from osteoporosis because of an increased number of hyperactive osteoclasts and a significant neutrophil infiltration of the lungs. Interestingly, SHIP1−/− mice do not display endotoxin tolerance and we have found that lipopolysaccharide-induced endotoxin tolerance is contingent on up-regulating SHIP1, through the production of autocrine-acting transforming growth factor-β, in bone-marrow-derived macrophages and mast cells. Intriguingly, unlike bone-marrow-derived macrophages, SHIP1−/− peritoneal and alveolar macrophages produce 10-fold less NO than wild-type macrophages because these in vivo-generated macrophages have very high arginase I levels and this enzyme competes with inducible nitric oxide synthase for the substrate L-arginine. It is probable that, in the face of chronically increased PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels in their myeloid progenitors, SHIP1−/− mice display a skewed development away from M1 (killer) macrophages (which have high inducible nitric oxide synthase levels and produce NO to kill microorganisms and tumour cells), towards M2 (healing) macrophages (which have high arginase levels and produce ornithine to promote host-cell growth and collagen formation). This skewing probably occurs to avoid septic shock and suggests that the phosphoinositide 3-kinase pathway plays a critical role in programming macrophages.

Abstract
Streptococcus suis capsular type 2 is an important zoonotic agent of meningitis. Previous studies reported that, in contrast to nonencapsulated mutants, encapsulated S. suis is able to resist phagocytosis. However, the mechanisms by which S. suis avoids phagocytosis are unknown. To elucidate the signaling pathway(s) involved in S. suis antiphagocytosis, we compared the ability of an encapsulated strain and its nonencapsulated mutant to induce the activation of Akt and protein kinase C (PKC), which are downstream kinases of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI-3K) pathway, known to be involved in the phagocytosis processes. The results demonstrated high levels of Akt and PKCalpha phosphorylation after infection of J774 macrophages with the nonencapsulated mutant, whereas the encapsulated strain showed reduced activation of PI-3K/Akt/PKCalpha signaling pathway, as well as several protein tyrosine events. These results correlated with the number of intracellular bacteria. Macrophages pretreated with specific PI-3K or PKC inhibitors showed reduced levels of Akt and PKCalpha phosphorylation, resulting in 50% reduction of phagocytosis. The role of phosphatases in the antiphagocytic mechanisms was evaluated by using phosphatase inhibitors, as well as SHP-1-deficient macrophages. Only in the absence of SHP-1 did the phagocytosis of encapsulated S. suis significantly increase, leading to Akt phosphorylation levels similar to those observed with the nonencapsulated strain, indicating activation of this important SH2 domain-containing tyrosine phosphatase by encapsulated S. suis. Finally, when purified S. suis capsular polysaccharide (CPS) was added to macrophages, no phosphorylation events were observed. In addition, CPS and encapsulated S. suis were able to inhibit the uptake of the nonencapsulated mutant. These results suggest the importance of CPS in the mechanisms, whereby S. suis downmodulates phagocytosis.

Abstract
Phagocytosis is a fundamental feature of the innate immune system, required for antimicrobial defense, resolution of inflammation, and tissue remodeling. Furthermore, phagocytosis is coupled to a diverse range of cytotoxic effector mechanisms, including the respiratory burst, secretion of inflammatory mediators and Ag presentation. Phospholipase D (PLD) has been linked to the regulation of phagocytosis and subsequent effector responses, but the identity of the PLD isoform(s) involved and the molecular mechanisms of activation are unknown. We used primary human macrophages and human THP-1 promonocytes to characterize the role of PLD in phagocytosis. Macrophages, THP-1 cells, and other human myelomonocytic cells expressed both PLD1 and PLD2 proteins. Phagocytosis of complement-opsonized zymosan was associated with stimulation of the activity of both PLD1 and PLD2, as demonstrated by a novel immunoprecipitation-in vitro PLD assay. Transfection of dominant-negative PLD1 or PLD2 each inhibited the extent of phagocytosis (by 55-65%), and their combined effects were additive (reduction of 91%). PLD1 and PLD2 exhibited distinct localizations in resting macrophages and those undergoing phagocytosis, and only PLD1 localized to the phagosome membrane. The COS-7 monkey fibroblast cell line, which has been used as a heterologous system for the analysis of receptor-mediated phagocytosis, expressed PLD2 but not PLD1. These data support a model in which macrophage phagocytosis is coordinately regulated by both PLD1 and PLD2, with isoform-specific localization. Human myelomonocytic cell lines accurately model PLD-dependent signal transduction events required for phagocytosis, but the heterologous COS cell system does not.

Abstract
Cells of the immune system carry out diverse functions that are controlled by surface receptors for antigen, costimulatory molecules, cytokines, chemokines, and other ligands. A shared feature of signal transduction downstream of most receptors on immune cells, as in nonhematopoietic cell types, is the activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). The mechanism by which this common signaling event is elicited by distinct receptors and contributes to unique functional outcomes is an intriguing puzzle. Understanding how specificity is achieved in PI3K signaling is of particular significance because altered regulation of this pathway is observed in many disease states, including leukemia and lymphoma. Here we review recent advances in the understanding of PI3K signaling mechanisms in different immune cells and receptor systems. We emphasize the concept that PI3K and its products are components of complex networks of interacting proteins and second messengers, rather than simple links in linear signaling cascades.

Abstract
Fc gamma R clustering in macrophages activates signaling events that result in phagocytosis. Phagocytosis is accompanied by the generation harmful byproducts such as reactive oxygen radicals and production of inflammatory cytokines, which mandate that the phagocytic process be subject to a tight regulation. The molecular mechanisms involved in this regulation are not fully understood. In this study, we have examined the role of the inositol 3-phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) in Fc gamma R-induced macrophage function. We demonstrate that in ex vivo murine peritoneal macrophages that are deficient in PTEN expression, Fc gamma R-induced Akt and extracellular signal-regulated kinase phosphorylation are enhanced. Notably, PTEN(-/-) macrophages showed constitutively high phosphorylation of Akt. However, PTEN did not seem to influence tyrosine phosphorylation events induced by Fc gamma R clustering. Furthermore, PTEN(-/-) macrophages displayed enhanced phagocytic ability. Likewise, Fc gamma R-induced production of TNF-alpha, IL-6, and IL-10 was significantly elevated in PTEN(-/-) macrophages. Surprisingly, LPS-induced TNF-alpha production was down-regulated in PTEN(-/-) macrophages. Analyzing the molecular events leading to PTEN influence on LPS/Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling, we found that LPS-induced activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases is suppressed in PTEN(-/-) cells. Previous reports indicated that LPS-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase activation is down-regulated by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase through the activation of Akt. Our observation that Akt activation is basally enhanced in PTEN(-/-) cells suggests that PTEN supports TLR4-induced inflammatory responses by suppressing the activation of Akt. Thus, we conclude that PTEN is a negative regulator of Fc gamma R signaling, but a positive regulator of TLR4 signaling. These findings are the first to demonstrate a role for PTEN in Fc gamma R- and TLR4-mediated macrophage inflammatory response.

Abstract
Dok-3 is a Dok-related adaptor expressed in B cells and macrophages. Previously, we reported that Dok-3 is an inhibitor of B-cell activation in A20 B cells and that it associates with SHIP-1, a 5' inositol-specific lipid phosphatase, as well as Csk, a negative regulator of Src kinases. Here, we demonstrate that Dok-3 suppresses B-cell activation by way of its interaction with SHIP-1, rather than Csk. Our biochemical analyses showed that the Dok-3-SHIP-1 complex acts by selectively inhibiting the B-cell receptor (BCR)-evoked activation of the Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK) cascade without affecting overall protein tyrosine phosphorylation or activation of previously described SHIP-1 targets like Btk and Akt/PKB. Studies of B cells derived from SHIP-1-deficient mice showed that BCR-triggered activation of JNK is enhanced in the absence of SHIP-1, implying that the Dok-3-SHIP-1 complex (or a related mechanism) is a physiological negative regulator of the JNK cascade in normal B cells. Together, these data elucidate the mechanism by which Dok-3 inhibits B-cell activation. Furthermore, they provide evidence that SHIP-1 can be a negative regulator of JNK signaling in B cells.

Abstract
Complement-receptor-3 (CR3/MAC-1), scavenger-receptor-AI/II (SRAI/II) and Fcgamma-receptor (FcgammaR) can mediate phagocytosis of degenerated myelin in macrophages and microglia. However, CR3/MAC-1 and SRAI/II, but not FcgammaR, mediate phagocytosis after axonal injury. We tested for phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase-Cgamma (PLCgamma) and protein kinase-C (PKC) signaling in myelin phagocytosis mediated by CR3/MAC-1 alone and by CR3/MAC-1 combined with SRAI/II. Phagocytosis was inhibited by PI3K inhibitors wortmannin and LY-294002, PLCgamma inhibitor U-73122, classical PKC (cPKC) inhibitor Go-6976, general PKC inhibitors Ro-318220 and calphostin-C, and BAPTA/AM which chelates intracellular Ca(2+) required for cPKC activation. PKC activator PMA augmented phagocytosis and further alleviated inhibitions induced by PI3K and PLCgamma inhibitors. Overall, altering PKC activity modulated phagocytosis 4- to 6-fold between inhibition and augmentation. PLCgamma activation did not require tyrosine phosphorylation. Thus, signaling of myelin phagocytosis mediated by CR3/MAC-1 alone and by CR3/MAC-1 combined with SRAI/II involves PI3K, PLCgamma and cPKC, the cascade PI3K-->PLCgamma-->cPKC, and wide-range modulation by PKC. This pathway may thus be targeted for in vivo modulation, which may explain differences in the efficiency of CR3/MAC-1-mediated myelin phagocytosis in different pathological conditions.

Abstract
PtdIns(3,4) P (2), a breakdown product of the lipid second messenger PtdIns(3,4,5) P (3), is a key signalling molecule in pathways controlling various cellular events. Cellular levels of PtdIns(3,4) P (2) are elevated upon agonist stimulation, mediating downstream signalling pathways by recruiting proteins containing specialized lipid-binding modules, such as the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain. A recently identified protein, TAPP1 (tandem-PH-domain-containing protein 1), has been shown to interact in vitro with high affinity and specificity with PtdIns(3,4) P (2) through its C-terminal PH domain. In the present study, we have utilized this PH domain tagged with glutathione S-transferase (GST-TAPP1-PH) as a probe in an on-section immunoelectron microscopy labelling procedure, mapping the subcellular distribution of PtdIns(3,4) P (2). As expected, we found accumulation of PtdIns(3,4) P (2) at the plasma membrane in response to the agonists platelet-derived growth factor and hydrogen peroxide. Importantly, however, we also found agonist stimulated PtdIns(3,4) P (2) labelling of intracellular organelles, including the endoplasmic reticulum and multivesicular endosomes. Expression of the 3-phosphatase PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10) in PTEN-null U87MG cells revealed differential sensitivity of these lipid pools to the enzyme. These data suggest a role for PtdIns(3,4) P (2) in endomembrane function.

Abstract
The phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) pathway plays a central role in regulating numerous biologic processes, including survival, adhesion, migration, metabolic activity, proliferation, differentiation, and end cell activation through the generation of the potent second messenger PI-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI-3,4,5-P(3)). To ensure that activation of this pathway is appropriately suppressed/terminated, the ubiquitously expressed 54-kDa tumor suppressor PTEN hydrolyzes PI-3,4,5-P(3) to PI-4,5-P(2), whereas the 145-kDa hematopoietic-restricted SH2-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase SHIP (also known as SHIP1), the 104-kDa stem cell-restricted SHIP sSHIP, and the more widely expressed 150-kDa SHIP2 break it down to PI-3,4-P(2). In this review, we focus on the properties of these phospholipid phosphatases and summarize recent data showing that the activities of these negative regulators often are modulated by simply altering their protein levels. We also highlight the critical role that SHIP plays in lipopolysaccharide-induced macrophage activation and in endotoxin tolerance.

Abstract
Cells of the innate immune system engulf invading microorganisms into plasma membrane-derived vacuoles called phagosomes. Newly formed phagosomes gradually acquire microbicidal properties by a maturation process which involves sequential and coordinated rounds of fusion with endomembranes and concomitant fission. Some pathogens interfere with this maturation sequence and thereby evade killing by the immune cells, managing to survive intracellularly as parasites. Phosphoinositides seem to be intimately involved in the processes of phagosome formation and maturation, and initial observations suggest that the ability of some microorganisms to survive intracellularly is associated with alterations in phosphoinositide metabolism. This chapter presents a brief overview of phosphoinositides in cells of the immune system, their metabolism in the context of phagocytosis and phagosome maturation and their possible derangements during infectious pathogenosis.

Abstract
The macrophage LDL receptor and LDL receptor-related protein (LRP, CD91) mediate the phagocytic-like uptake of atherogenic lipoproteins and apoptotic cells, yet the structural basis of their phagocytic functions is not known. To address this issue, we transfected macrophages with chimeric proteins containing the cytoplasmic tails and transmembrane regions of the LDL receptor or LRP and the ectodomain of CD2, which can bind non-opsonized sheep red blood cells (SRBCs). Macrophages expressing receptors containing the LDL receptor domains were able to bind but not internalize SRBCs. In contrast, macrophages expressing receptors containing the cytoplasmic tail of LRP were able to bind and internalize SRBCs. Chimeras in which the LRP cytoplasmic tail was mutated in two di-leucine motifs and a tyrosine in an NPXYXXL motif were able to endocytose anti-CD2 antibody and bind SRBCs, but SRBC phagocytosis was decreased by 70%. Thus, the phagocytic-like functions of LRP, but not those of the LDL receptor, can be explained by the ability of the LRP cytoplasmic tail to trigger phagocytosis. These findings have important implications for atherogenesis and apoptotic cell clearance and for a fundamental cell biological understanding of how the LDL receptor and LRP function in internalization processes.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) play an important role in a variety of cellular functions, including phagocytosis. PI3Ks are activated during phagocytosis induced by several receptors and have been shown to be required for phagocytosis through the use of inhibitors such as wortmannin and LY294002. Mammalian cells have multiple isoforms of PI3K, and the role of the individual isoforms during phagocytosis has not been addressed. The class I PI3Ks consist of a catalytic p110 isoform associated with a regulatory subunit. Mammals have three genes for the class IA p110 subunits encoding p110alpha, p110beta, and p110delta and one gene for the class IB p110 subunit encoding p110gamma. Here we report a specific recruitment of p110beta and p110delta (but not p110alpha) isoforms to the nascent phagosome during apoptotic cell phagocytosis by fibroblasts. By microinjecting inhibitory antibodies specific to class IA p110 subunits, we have shown that p110beta is the major isoform required for apoptotic cell and Fcgamma receptor-mediated phagocytosis by primary mouse macrophages. Macrophages from mice expressing a catalytically inactive form of p110delta showed no defect in the phagocytosis of apoptotic cells and IgG-opsonized particles, confirming the lack of a major role for p110delta in this process. Similarly, p110gamma-deficient macrophages phagocytosed apoptotic cells normally. Our findings demonstrate that p110beta is the major class I catalytic isoform required for apoptotic cell and Fcgamma receptor-mediated phagocytosis by primary macrophages.

Abstract
Fc gamma RIIa is a low affinity IgG receptor uniquely expressed in human cells that promotes phagocytosis of immune complexes and induces inflammatory cytokine gene transcription. Recent studies have revealed that phagocytosis initiated by Fc gamma RIIa is tightly controlled by the inositol phosphatase SHIP-1, and the protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1. Whereas the molecular nature of SHIP-1 involvement with Fc gamma RIIa has been well studied, it is not clear how SHP-1 is activated by Fc gamma RIIa to mediate its regulatory effect. Here we report that Fc gamma RIIa clustering induces SHP-1 phosphatase activity in THP-1 cells. Using synthetic phosphopeptides, and stable transfectants expressing immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) tyrosine mutants of Fc gamma RIIa, we demonstrate that SHP-1 associates with the phosphorylated amino-terminal ITAM tyrosine of Fc gamma RIIa, whereas the tyrosine kinase Syk associates with the carboxyl-terminal ITAM tyrosine. Association of SHP-1 with Fc gamma RIIa ITAM appears to suppress total cellular tyrosine phosphorylation. Furthermore, Fc gamma RIIa clustering results in the association of SHP-1 with key signaling molecules such as Syk, p85 subunit of PtdIns 3-kinase, and p62dok, suggesting that these molecules may be substrates of SHP-1 in this system. Finally, overexpression of wild-type SHP-1 but not catalytically deficient SHP-1 led to a down-regulation of NF kappa B-dependent gene transcription in THP-1 cells activated by clustering Fc gamma RIIa.
