Abstract
Calcineurin B homologous proteins (CHP) are N-myristoylated, EF-hand Ca(2+)-binding proteins that regulate multiple cellular processes, including intracellular pH homeostasis. Previous work has shown that the heart-enriched isoform, CHP3, regulates the plasmalemmal Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE1 isoform by enhancing its rate of oligosaccharide maturation and exocytosis as well as its half-life and transport activity at the cell surface (Zaun, H. C., Shrier, A., and Orlowski, J. (2008) J. Biol. Chem. 283, 12456-12467). However, the molecular basis for this effect is not well understood. In this report, we investigated whether the N-myristoylation and Ca(2+)-binding domains of CHP3 are important elements for regulating NHE1. Mutation of residues essential for either N-myristoylation (G2A) or calcium binding (D123A) did not prevent the interaction of CHP3 with NHE1, although the D123A mutant no longer showed elevated binding to NHE1 in the presence of Ca(2+) when assessed using in vitro binding assays. Disruption of either site also did not impair the ability of CHP3 to stimulate the biosynthetic processing and trafficking of NHE1 to the plasma membrane nor did it affect the H(+) sensitivity of the exchanger. However, they did significantly reduce the cell surface half-life and near maximal transport velocity of NHE1 to a similar extent. Simultaneous mutation of both sites (G2A/D123A) gave results identical to the individual substitutions. This finding suggests that both domains in CHP3 are interdependent and may function cooperatively as a Ca(2+)-myristoyl switch mechanism to selectively stabilize the NHE1·CHP3 complex at the cell surface in a conformation that promotes optimal transport activity.

Beaumont KG, Mrksich M. The mechanostability of isolated focal adhesions is strongly dependent on pH. CHEMISTRY & BIOLOGY 2012; 19:711-20. [PMID: 22726685 PMCID: PMC3476948 DOI: 10.1016/j.chembiol.2012.04.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2010] [Revised: 04/04/2012] [Accepted: 04/06/2012] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
This report demonstrates that the mechanical stability of focal adhesions exhibits a biphasic and sensitive pH dependence. These studies used isolated focal adhesions, which retain many of the properties of the intracellular structures, including protein composition and force-dependent reinforcement by cytosolic proteins. The focal adhesion structures are least stable to applied force at a pH of 6.4, and significantly more stable at slightly higher and lower pH values. This trend is consistent with previous work that characterized the pH dependence of cell migration and may therefore be relevant to controlling the invasiveness of metastatic cancer cells. This approach is significant because it allows biochemical studies of large protein complexes previously studied only in cell culture, and therefore offers new opportunities for performing mechanistic studies of a range of factors that contribute to focal adhesion stability.

Fibronectin stimulates migration through lipid raft dependent NHE-1 activation in mouse embryonic stem cells: involvement of RhoA, Ca(2+)/CaM, and ERK. Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2012; 1820:1618-27.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracellular matrix (ECM) components and intracellular pH (pH(i)) may serve as regulators of cell migration in various cell types. METHODS The Oris migration assay was used to assess the effect of fibronectin (FN) on cell motility. The Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE)-1 activity was evaluated by measuring pH(i) and [(22)Na(+)] uptake. To examine activated signaling molecules, western blot analysis and immunoprecipitation was performed. RESULTS ECM components (FN, laminin, fibrinogen, and collagen type I) increased [(22)Na(+)] uptake, pH(i), and cell migration. In addition, FN-induced increase of cell migration was inhibited by NHE-1 inhibitor amiloride or NHE-1-specific siRNA. FN selectively increased the mRNA and protein expression of NHE-1, but not that of NHE-2 or NHE-3. FN binds integrin β1 and subsequently stimulates caveolin-1 phosphorylation and Ca(2+) influx. Then, NHE-1 is phosphorylated by RhoA and Rho kinases, and Ca(2+)/calmodulin (CaM) signaling elicits complex formation with NHE-1, which is enriched in lipid raft/caveolae microdomains of the plasma membrane. Activation of NHE-1 continuously induces an increase of [(22)Na(+)] uptake and pH(i). Finally, NHE-1-dependent extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 phosphorylation enhanced matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and filamentous-actin (F-actin) expression, partially contributing to the regulation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) migration. CONCLUSIONS FN stimulated mESCs migration and proliferation through NHE-1 activation, which were mediated by lipid raft-associated caveolin-1, RhoA/ROCK, and Ca(2+)/CaM signaling pathways. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE The precise role of NHE in the modulation of ECM-related physiological functions such as proliferation and migration remains poorly understood. Thus, this study analyzed the relationship between FN and NHE in regulating the migration of mouse ESCs and their related signaling pathways.

Abstract
Invadosomes are actin-rich finger-like cellular structures sensing and interacting with the surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM) and involved in its proteolytic remodeling. Invadosomes are structures distinct from other adhesion complexes, and have been identified in normal cells that have to cross tissue barriers to fulfill their function such as leukocytes, osteoclasts and endothelial cells. They also represent features of highly aggressive cancer cells, allowing them to escape from the primary tumor, to invade surrounding tissues and to reach systemic circulation. They are localized to the ventral membrane of cells grown under 2-dimensional conditions and are supposed to be present all around cells grown in 3-dimensional matrices. Indeed invadosomes are key structures in physiological processes such as inflammation and the immune response, bone remodeling, tissue repair, but also in pathological conditions such as osteopetrosis and the development of metastases. Invadosomes are subdivided into podosomes, found in normal cells, and into invadopodia specific for cancer cells. While these two structures exhibit differences in organization, size, number and half-life, they share similarities in molecular composition, participation in cell-matrix adhesion and promoting matrix degradation. A key determinant in invadosomal function is the recruitment and release of proteases, such as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), serine proteases and cysteine cathepsins, together with their activation in a tightly controlled and highly acidic microenvironment. Therefore numerous pH regulators such as V-ATPases and Na(+)/H(+) exchangers, are found in invadosomes and are directly involved in their constitution as well as their functioning. This review focuses on the participation of pH regulators in invadosome function in physiological and pathological conditions, with a particular emphasis on ECM remodeling by osteoclasts during bone resorption and by cancer cells.

Abstract
Integrin signaling and membrane blebbing modulate cell adhesion, spreading, and migration. However, the relationship between integrin signaling and membrane blebbing is unclear. Here, we show that an integrin-ligand interaction induces both membrane blebbing and changes in membrane permeability. Sodium-proton exchanger 1 (NHE1) and sodium-calcium exchanger 1 (NCX1) are membrane proteins located on the bleb membrane. Inhibition of NHE1 disrupts membrane blebbing and decreases changes in membrane permeability. However, inhibition of NCX1 enhances cell blebbing; cells become swollen because of NHE1 induced intracellular sodium accumulation. Our study found that NHE1 induced sodium influx is a driving force for membrane bleb growth, while sodium efflux (and calcium influx) induced by NCX1 in a reverse mode results in membrane bleb retraction. Together, these findings reveal a novel function for NHE1 and NCX1 in membrane blebbing and permeability, and establish a link between membrane blebbing and integrin signaling.

Abstract
Invadopodia are invasive protrusions with proteolytic activity uniquely found in tumor cells. Cortactin phosphorylation is a key step during invadopodia maturation, regulating Nck1 binding and cofilin activity. The precise mechanism of cortactin-dependent cofilin regulation and the roles of this pathway in invadopodia maturation and cell invasion are not fully understood. We provide evidence that cortactin-cofilin binding is regulated by local pH changes at invadopodia that are mediated by the sodium-hydrogen exchanger NHE1. Furthermore, cortactin tyrosine phosphorylation mediates the recruitment of NHE1 to the invadopodium compartment, where it locally increases the pH to cause the release of cofilin from cortactin. We show that this mechanism involving cortactin phosphorylation, local pH increase, and cofilin activation regulates the dynamic cycles of invadopodium protrusion and retraction and is essential for cell invasion in 3D. Together, these findings identify a novel pH-dependent regulation of cell invasion.

Abstract
The multivesicular body (MVB) is an endosomal intermediate containing intralumenal vesicles destined for membrane protein degradation in the lysosome. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the MVB pathway is composed of 17 evolutionarily conserved ESCRT (endosomal sorting complex required for transport) genes grouped by their vacuole protein sorting Class E mutant phenotypes. Only one integral membrane protein, the endosomal Na+ (K+)/H+ exchanger Nhx1/Vps44, has been assigned to this class, but its role in the MVB pathway has not been directly tested. Herein, we first evaluated the link between Nhx1 and the ESCRT proteins and then used an unbiased phenomics approach to probe the cellular role of Nhx1. Select ESCRT mutants (vps36Δ, vps20Δ, snf7Δ, and bro1Δ) with defects in cargo packaging and intralumenal vesicle formation shared multiple growth phenotypes with nhx1Δ. However, analysis of cellular trafficking and ultrastructural examination by electron microscopy revealed that nhx1Δ cells retain the ability to sort cargo into intralumenal vesicles. In addition, we excluded a role for Nhx1 in Snf7/Bro1-mediated cargo deubiquitylation and Rim101 response to pH stress. Genetic epistasis experiments provided evidence that NHX1 and ESCRT genes function in parallel. A genome-wide screen for single gene deletion mutants that phenocopy nhx1Δ yielded a limited gene set enriched for endosome fusion function, including Rab signaling and actin cytoskeleton reorganization. In light of these findings and the absence of the so-called Class E compartment in nhx1Δ, we eliminated a requirement for Nhx1 in MVB formation and suggest an alternative post-ESCRT role in endosomal membrane fusion.

Abstract
The traditional view of cancer as a collection of proliferating cells must be reconsidered, and cancer must be viewed as a “tissue” constituted by both transformed cells and a heterogeneous microenvironment, that tumor cells construct and remodel during multistep tumorigenesis. The “tumor microenvironment” (TM) is formed by mesenchymal, endothelial, and immune cells immersed in a network of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and soluble factors. The TM strongly contributes to tumor progression, through long distance, cell-to-cell or cell-to-matrix signals, which influence different aspects of tumor cell behavior. Understanding the relationships among the different components of the cancer tissue is crucial to design and develop new therapeutic strategies. Ion channels are emerging as relevant players in the cross talk between tumor cells and their TM. Ion channels are expressed on tumor cells, as well as in the different cellular components of the TM. In all these cells, ion channels are in a strategic position to sense and transmit extracellular signals into the intracellular machinery. Often, this transmission is mediated by integrin adhesion receptors, which can be functional partners of ion channels since they form molecular complexes with the channel protein in the context of the plasma membrane. The same relevant role is exerted by ion transporters, which also contribute to determine two facets of the cancer tissue: hypoxia and the acidic extracellular pH. On the whole, it is conceivable to prospect the targeting of ion channels for new therapeutic strategies aimed at better controlling the malignant progression of the cancer tissue.

Abstract
Caenorhabditis elegans defecation is a rhythmic behavior, composed of three sequential muscle contractions, with a 50-s periodicity. The motor program is driven by oscillatory calcium signaling in the intestine. Proton fluxes, which require sodium-proton exchangers at the apical and basolateral intestinal membranes, parallel the intestinal calcium flux. These proton shifts are critical for defecation-associated muscle contraction, nutrient uptake, and longevity. How sodium-proton exchangers are activated in time with intestinal calcium oscillation is not known. The posterior body defecation contraction mutant (pbo-1) encodes a calcium-binding protein with homology to calcineurin homologous proteins, which are putative cofactors for mammalian sodium-proton exchangers. Loss of pbo-1 function results in a weakened defecation muscle contraction and a caloric restriction phenotype. Both of these phenotypes also arise from dysfunctions in pH regulation due to mutations in intestinal sodium-proton exchangers. Dynamic, in vivo imaging of intestinal proton flux in pbo-1 mutants using genetically encoded pH biosensors demonstrates that proton movements associated with these sodium-proton exchangers are significantly reduced. The basolateral acidification that signals the first defecation motor contraction is scant in the mutant compared with a normal animal. Luminal and cytoplasmic pH shifts are much reduced in the absence of PBO-1 compared with control animals. We conclude that pbo-1 is required for normal sodium-proton exchanger activity and may couple calcium and proton signaling events.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate the effect of small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated silencing of the Na+/H+ exchanger 1 (NHE1) gene on cell invasion and migration in human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line MHCC97-H.
METHODS: After MHCC97-H cells were transfected with NHE1-specific siRNA, the levels of NHE1 mRNA and protein were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot, respectively. Cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay. The impact of NHE1 knockdown on cell invasion and migration was determined by Transwell chamber assay. The changes in morphology cytoskeleton and pseudopodia were observed by immunofluorescence.
RESULTS: Compared to negative control and mock control cells, the levels of NHE1 mRNA and protein in MHCC97-H cells transfected with NHE1-specific siRNA decreased significantly (P < 0.05). NHE1 knockdown significantly suppressed the invasion and migration of MHCC97-H cells compared to negative control and mock control cells (34.1 ± 5.2 vs 56.9 ± 6.1, 57.2 ± 6.1; 120.2 ± 12.8 vs 235.2 ± 16.8, 231.9 ± 14.7; all P < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in cell migration and invasion between the two control groups. Cell proliferation showed no significant differences among the three groups 48 or 72 h after transfection. Compared to the two control groups, deletion of NHE1 decreased the number of membrane pseudopodia and disrupted the cross-linked actin network in MHCC97-H cells.
CONCLUSION: Deletion of NHE1 inhibits cell invasion and migration by influencing cytoskeleton rearrangement and pseudopodia formation in human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line MHCC97-H.

Abstract
In the present study the effect of high glucose concentrations, insulin, PPARγ activators (rosiglitazone) and NHE-1 inhibitors (cariporide) in atherosclerosis-related functions of human monocytes was investigated. Monocyte adhesion to laminin-1, collagen type IV and endothelial cells, as well as monocyte migration through the same substrates were studied. Incubation of the monocyte suspension with high glucose concentrations, insulin and rosiglitazone induced all the studied atherosclerosis-related functions of the monocytes. In all these functions the addition of cariporide counteracted the activity of glucose, insulin and rosiglitazone. The use of antigen for β1 integrin also counteracted the activity of the above in monocyte adhesion in all three substrates. The data of the present study suggests that PPARγ activation in monocytes induces atherosclerosis, and that NHE-1 and β1 integrin play an important role in the beginning of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
All segments of the gastrointestinal tract are comprised of an elaborately folded epithelium that expresses a variety of cell types and performs multiple secretory and absorptive functions. While the apical membrane expresses the electrolyte transporters that secrete or absorb electrolytes and water, basolateral transporters regulate the secretory or absorptive rates. During gastric acid formation, Cl⁻/HCO₃⁻ and Na(+) /H(+) exchange and other transporters secure Cl⁻ re-supply as well as pH and volume regulation. Gastric surface cells utilize ion transporters to secrete HCO₃⁻, maintain pH(i) during a luminal acid load and repair damaged surface areas during the process of epithelial restitution. Na(+)/H(+) exchange and Na(+)/HCO₃⁻ cotransport serve basolateral acid/base import for gastroduodenal HCO₃⁻ secretion. The gastric and duodenal epithelium also absorbs salt and water. Recent molecular information on novel ion transporters expressed in the gastric and duodenal epithelium has exploded; however, a function has not been found yet for all transporters. The purpose of this review is to summarize current knowledge on the molecular identity and cellular function of basolateral ion transporters in the gastric and duodenal epithelium.

Abstract
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) orchestrates angiogenesis under hypoxic conditions mainly due to increased expression of such target genes as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Na+/H+exchanger-1 (NHE1), a potential HIF target gene product, plays a pivotal role in proliferation, survival, migration, adhesion and so on. However, it is unknown whether NHE1 is involved in HIF-1α-induced angiogenesis. This present study demonstrated that the expression of NHE1 was much higher in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) infected with adenovirus encoding HIF-1α (rAd-HIF) than with vacuum adenovirus (vAd). HIF-1α also increased the expression of VEGF, the expression and activity of calpains, and the intracellular pH. Moreover, small interfering RNA targeting NHE1 (NHE1 siRNA) dramatically decreased the expression of NHE1 and thus lowered the intracellular pH, and it also attenuated the protein expression of calpain-2 but not calpain-1, resulting in the lower calpain activity. Furthermore, HIF-1α enhanced the proliferation, migration and Matrigel tube formation, which were inhibited by NHE1 siRNA. Finally, the inhibitory effect of NHE1 siRNA was reversed by VEGF and the reversibility of the later was abrogated by the calpain inhibitor ALLM. In conclusion, the findings have revealed that NHE1 might participate in HIF-1-induced angiogenesis due, at least in part, to the alteration of the calpain activity, suggesting that NHE1 as well as calpains might represent a potential target of controlling angiogenesis in response to the hypoxic stress under various pathological conditions.

Abstract
Rho-associated kinase (Rho-kinase/ROCK/ROK) is an effector of the small GTPase Rho and belongs to the AGC family of kinases. Rho-kinase has pleiotropic functions including the regulation of cellular contraction, motility, morphology, polarity, cell division, and gene expression. Pharmacological analyses have revealed that Rho-kinase is involved in a wide range of diseases such as vasospasm, pulmonary hypertension, nerve injury, and glaucoma, and is therefore considered to be a potential therapeutic target. This review focuses on the structure, function, and modes of activation and action of Rho-kinase.

Abstract
Cell polarization along the axis of movement is required for migration. The localization of proteins and regulators of the migratory machinery to either the cell front or its rear results in a spatial asymmetry enabling cells to simultaneously coordinate cell protrusion and retraction. Protons might function as such unevenly distributed regulators as they modulate the interaction of focal adhesion proteins and components of the cytoskeleton in vitro. However, an intracellular pH (pH(i)) gradient reflecting a spatial asymmetry of protons has not been shown so far. One major regulator of pH(i), the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE1, is essential for cell migration and accumulates at the cell front. Here, we test the hypothesis that the uneven distribution of NHE1 activity creates a pH(i) gradient in migrating cells. Using the pH-sensitive fluorescent dye BCECF, pH(i) was measured in five cell lines (MV3, B16V, NIH3T3, MDCK-F1, EA.hy926) along the axis of movement. Differences in pH(i) between the front and the rear end (ΔpH(i) front-rear) were present in all cell lines, and inhibition of NHE1 either with HOE642 or by absence of extracellular Na(+) caused the pH(i) gradient to flatten or disappear. In conclusion, pH(i) gradients established by NHE1 activity exist along the axis of movement.

Abstract
DIP/WISH binds to mammalian diaphanous and N-WASP, and functions as a scaffold protein by binding to Nck protein (called SPIN90). In addition, DIP/WISH accelerates actin polymerization through integration with N-WASP and is involved in cytoskeletal dynamics. We previously reported that DIP controls the activities of Rho GTPases in a Src-dependent manner, and accordingly contributes to cell motility (Meng et al. 2004). Here, we made the mice lacking DIP/WISH and demonstrated that DIP/WISH is critical for cell motility and adhesion by using murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEF). Rho activity was higher in DIP/WISH-deficient MEF cells even before platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) or adhesion stimulation. Cell motility and adhesion were impaired in DIP/WISH-deficient MEF cells, and the MEF cells moved little probably due to the deficiency of tail retractions although they had many small membrane ruffles. Consistent with high Rho activity, DIP/WISH-deficient MEF cells exhibited many stress fibers due to clustering pre-existing actin filament. Thus, DIP/WISH is a negative regulator of Rho and modulates cell adhesion by controlling the integration of adhesion molecules.

Abstract
This study investigated the role of Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE) and signalling molecules, such as cAMP, PKC, PI 3-kinase, and immune defence enzymes, NADPH oxidase and nitric oxide synthase, in the induction of protein glutathionylation and carbonylation in cadmium-treated haemocytes of mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis. Glutathionylation was detected by western blot analysis and showed actin as its main target. A significant increase of both actin glutathionylation and protein carbonylation, were observed in haemocytes exposed to micromolar concentration of cadmium chloride (5 micromol l(-1)). Cadmium seems to cause actin polymerization that may lead to its increased glutathionylation, probably to protect it from cadmium-induced oxidative stress. It is therefore possible that polymerization of actin plays a signalling role in the induction of both glutathionylation and carbonylation processes. NHE seems to play a regulatory role in the induction of oxidative damage and actin glutathionylation, since its inhibition by 2 micromol l(-1) cariporide, significantly diminished cadmium effects in each case. Similarly, attenuation of cadmium effects were observed in cells pre-treated with either 11 micromol l(-1) GF-109203X, a potent inhibitor of PKC, 50 nmol l(-1) wortmannin, an inhibitor of PI 3-kinase, 0.01 mmol l(-1) forskolin, an adenylyl cyclase activator, 10 micromol l(-1) DPI, a NADPH oxidase inhibitor, or 10 micromol l(-1) L-NAME, a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, suggesting a possible role of PKC, PI 3-kinase and cAMP, as well as NADPH oxidase and nitric oxide synthase in the enhancement of cadmium effects on both actin glutathionylation and protein carbonylation.

Abstract
The present study investigates cadmium (Cd) ability to enhance superoxides (O(2-)) and nitric oxide (NO) production (as nitrites) in haemocytes of mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis as well as the possible involvement of Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE) in the induction of NADPH oxidase and NO synthase activity. PMA, a well-known PKC-mediated NADPH oxidase as well as NO synthase stimulator was also used, in order to verify Cd effects on both O(2-) and NO generation. According to the results of the present study, micromolar concentrations of Cd (0.05, 5, 10 and 50 microM) seemed to enhance O(2-) and NO generation in haemocytes of mussels. Moreover, O(2-) and NO generation in haemocytes exposed to Cd could be enhanced by its ability to induce reactive oxygen species (ROS) but respiratory burst activation as well. Inhibition of NO synthase with 10 microM l-NAME, significantly attenuated Cd ability to enhance O(2-) production and diminished NO generation, thus leading to the suggestion that Cd toxic effects, started at concentration of 50 muM, could enhance NADPH oxidase and NO synthase stimulation in haemocytes of mussels. NHE seems to play a regulatory role in the induction of either O(2-) or NO generation in haemocytes exposed to the metal, since its inhibition with the use of 10 microM EIPA significantly decrease both O(2-) and NO production. The involvement of NHE in the induction of O(2-) and NO generation, probably via PKC-mediated NADPH oxidase and NO synthase activation, is likely to be crucial to haemocytes exposed to heavy metals, such as Cd.

Abstract
The ability to control cell volume is pivotal for cell function. Cell volume perturbation elicits a wide array of signaling events, leading to protective (e.g., cytoskeletal rearrangement) and adaptive (e.g., altered expression of osmolyte transporters and heat shock proteins) measures and, in most cases, activation of volume regulatory osmolyte transport. After acute swelling, cell volume is regulated by the process of regulatory volume decrease (RVD), which involves the activation of KCl cotransport and of channels mediating K(+), Cl(-), and taurine efflux. Conversely, after acute shrinkage, cell volume is regulated by the process of regulatory volume increase (RVI), which is mediated primarily by Na(+)/H(+) exchange, Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransport, and Na(+) channels. Here, we review in detail the current knowledge regarding the molecular identity of these transport pathways and their regulation by, e.g., membrane deformation, ionic strength, Ca(2+), protein kinases and phosphatases, cytoskeletal elements, GTP binding proteins, lipid mediators, and reactive oxygen species, upon changes in cell volume. We also discuss the nature of the upstream elements in volume sensing in vertebrate organisms. Importantly, cell volume impacts on a wide array of physiological processes, including transepithelial transport; cell migration, proliferation, and death; and changes in cell volume function as specific signals regulating these processes. A discussion of this issue concludes the review.

Abstract
Secretion and assembly of the extracellular matrix protein fibronectin regulates a number of normal cell and tissue functions and is dysregulated in disease states such as fibrosis, diabetes, and cancer. We found that mislocalized scaffolding by the plasma membrane Na-H exchanger NHE1 suppresses fibronectin expression, secretion, and assembly. In fibroblasts, wild-type NHE1 localizes to the distal margin of membrane protrusions or lamellipodia but a mutant NHE1-KRA2 lacking binding sites for PI(4,5)P2 and the ERM proteins ezrin, radixin, and moesin is mislocalized and found uniformly along the plasma membrane. Although NHE1 regulates intracellular pH homeostasis, fibronectin production is not regulated by changes in intracellular pH, nor is it attenuated in NHE1-deficient cells, indicating fibronectin expression is independent of NHE1 activity. However, fibronectin production is nearly absent in cells expressing NHE1-KRA2 because scaffolding by NHE1 is mislocalized. Additionally, secretion of active but not latent TGF-beta is reduced and exogenous TGF-beta restores fibronectin secretion and assembly. Our data indicate that scaffolding by NHE1-KRA2 dominantly suppresses fibronectin synthesis and TGF-beta activation, and they suggest that NHE1-KRA2 can be used for obtaining a mechanistic understanding of how fibronectin production is regulated and speculatively for therapeutic control of dysregulated production in pathological conditions.

Abstract
Newly generated actin free barbed ends at the front of motile cells provide sites for actin filament assembly driving membrane protrusion. Growth factors induce a rapid biphasic increase in actin free barbed ends, and we found both phases absent in fibroblasts lacking H(+) efflux by the Na-H exchanger NHE1. The first phase is restored by expression of mutant cofilin-H133A but not unphosphorylated cofilin-S3A. Constant pH molecular dynamics simulations and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) reveal pH-sensitive structural changes in the cofilin C-terminal filamentous actin binding site dependent on His133. However, cofilin-H133A retains pH-sensitive changes in NMR spectra and severing activity in vitro, which suggests that it has a more complex behavior in cells. Cofilin activity is inhibited by phosphoinositide binding, and we found that phosphoinositide binding is pH-dependent for wild-type cofilin, with decreased binding at a higher pH. In contrast, phosphoinositide binding by cofilin-H133A is attenuated and pH insensitive. These data suggest a molecular mechanism whereby cofilin acts as a pH sensor to mediate a pH-dependent actin filament dynamics.

Abstract
Actin filament binding by the focal adhesion (FA)-associated protein talin stabilizes cell-substrate adhesions and is thought to be rate-limiting in cell migration. Although F-actin binding by talin is known to be pH-sensitive in vitro, with lower affinity at higher pH, the functional significance of this pH dependence is unknown. Because increased intracellular pH (pH(i)) promotes cell migration and is a hallmark of metastatic carcinomas, we asked whether it increases FA remodeling through lower-affinity talin-actin binding. Talin contains several actin binding sites, but we found that only the COOH-terminal USH-I/LWEQ module showed pH-dependent actin binding, with lower affinity and decreased maximal binding at higher pH. Molecular dynamics simulations and NMR of this module revealed a structural mechanism for pH-dependent actin binding. A cluster of titratable amino acids with upshifted pK(a) values, including His-2418, was identified at one end of the five-helix bundle distal from the actin binding site. Protonation of His-2418 induces changes in the conformation and dynamics of the remote actin binding site. Structural analyses of a mutant talin-H2418F at pH 6.0 and 8.0 suggested changes different from the WT protein, and we confirmed that actin binding by talin-H2418F was relatively pH-insensitive. In motile fibroblasts, increasing pH(i) decreased FA lifetime and increased the migratory rate. However, expression of talin-H2418F increased lifetime 2-fold and decreased the migratory rate. These data identify a molecular mechanism for pH-sensitive actin binding by talin and suggest that FA turnover is pH-dependent and in part mediated by pH-dependent affinity of talin for binding actin.

Abstract
Na(+)/H(+) exchanger-1 (NHE1) is a ubiquitous plasma membrane Na(+)/H(+) exchanger typically associated with maintenance of intracellular volume and pH. In addition to the NHE1 role in electroneutral Na(+)/H(+) transport, in renal tubular epithelial cells in vitro the polybasic, juxtamembrane NHE1 cytosolic tail domain acts as a scaffold, by binding with ezrin/radixin/moesin (ERM) proteins and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, which initiates formation of a signaling complex that culminates in Akt activation and opposition to initial apoptotic stress. With robust apoptotic stimuli renal tubular epithelial cell NHE1 is a caspase substrate, and proteolytic cleavage may permit progression to apoptotic cell death. In vivo, genetic or pharmacological NHE1 loss of function causes renal tubule epithelial cell apoptosis and renal dysfunction following streptozotocin-induced diabetes, ureteral obstruction, and adriamycin-induced podocyte toxicity. Taken together, substantial in vivo and in vitro data demonstrate that NHE1 regulates tubular epithelial cell survival. In contrast to connotations of NHE1 as an unimportant "housekeeping" protein, this review highlights that NHE1 activity is critical for countering tubular atrophy and chronic renal disease progression.

Abstract
1. The Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE3 associates with the actin cytoskeleton by binding ezrin both directly and indirectly. Both types of interaction are necessary for acute regulation of NHE3. Most acute regulation of NHE3 occurs by changes in trafficking via effects on exocytosis and/or endocytosis. However, NHE3 activity can also be regulated without changing the surface expression of NHE3 (change in turnover number). 2. A positive amino acid cluster in the a-helical juxtamembrane region in the COOH-terminus of NHE3 (amino acids K516, R520 and R527) is necessary for binding to the protein 4.1, ezrin, radixin, moesin (FERM) domain III of ezrin. Direct binding of NHE3 to ezrin is necessary for many aspects of basal trafficking, including basal exocytosis, delivery from the synthetic pathway and movement of NHE3 in the brush border (BB), which probably contributes to endocytosis over a prolonged period of time. 3. In addition, NHE3 binds indirectly to ezrin. The PDZ domain-containing proteins Na(+)/H(+) exchanger regulatory factor (NHERF) 1 and NHERF2, as intermediates in linking NHE3 to ezrin, are necessary for many aspects of NHE3 regulation. The binding of NHERF-ezrin/radixin/moesin to NHE3 occurs in the cytosolic domain of NHE3 between amino acids 475 and 689. This NHERF binding is involved in the formation of the NHE3 complex and restricts NHE3 mobility in the BB. However, it is dynamic; for example, changing in some cases of signalling. Furthermore, NHERF binding is necessary for lysophosphatidic acid stimulation of NHE3 and inhibition of NHE3 by Ca(2+), cAMP and cGMP.

Abstract
RATIONALE Our previous studies found that Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE) activity played an essential role in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell (PASMC) proliferation and in the development of hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension and vascular remodeling. Other investigators recently observed increased expression of the NHE isoform 1 (NHE1) gene in rodents with pulmonary hypertension induced by hypoxia. However, a causal role for the NHE1 gene in pulmonary hypertension has not been determined. OBJECTIVES To determine the causal role of the NHE1 gene in pulmonary hypertension and vascular remodeling. METHODS We used NHE1-null mice to define the role of the NHE1 gene in the development of pulmonary hypertension and remodeling induced by hypoxia and to delineate the NHE1 regulatory pathway. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS After 2 weeks of exposure to hypoxia, in contrast to wild-type hypoxic littermates, there was no significant increase in right ventricular systolic pressure, in the ratio of right ventricular to left ventricular plus septal weight [RV/(LV + S)], or in medial wall thickness of the pulmonary arterioles in homozygous mice (NHE1(-/-)). There was a significant decrease in Rho kinase (ROCK1 and ROCK2) expression, accompanied by an increase in p27 expression in NHE1(-/-) mice. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated that deficiency of the NHE1 gene prevented the development of hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension and vascular remodeling in mice and revealed a novel regulatory pathway associated with NHE1 signaling.

Abstract
The activation of sodium/hydrogen exchanger (NHE) is associated with a variety of cell functions like cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, and apoptosis. Since its discovery, 9 NHE isoforms have been identified, but the most widely spread and the most important for the cellular functions is NHE-1. This ubiquitously expressed sodium/hydrogen exchanger (NHE-1) plays a central housekeeping role in all cells regulating cell volume and internal pH (pHi). At physiological pHi, NHE-1 is essentially inactive but it is extremely sensitive to pHi changes, being rapidly activated by small intracellular hydrogen concentration increases. NHE-1 activity can be stimulated via a series of cell surface receptors, including tyrosine kinase, G-protein-coupled, and integrin receptors. These signals converge, regulating the affinity of the internal hydrogen-binding site. NHE-1 also is a plasma membrane-anchoring protein for the cytoskeleton. Cytoskeleton anchoring of NHE-1 is important for cell adhesion to extracellular matrix proteins and cell migration. Moreover, NHE-1 plays the role of a "scaffold" for the building of various intracellular signaling molecule clusters.

Abstract
Cell cycle control and migration are critical processes during development and maintenance of tissue functions. Recently, primary cilia were shown to take part in coordination of the signaling pathways that control these cellular processes in human health and disease. In this review, we present an overview of the function of primary cilia and the centrosome in the signaling pathways that regulate cell cycle control and migration with focus on ciliary signaling via platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRalpha). We also consider how the primary cilium and the centrosome interact with the extracellular matrix, coordinate Wnt signaling, and modulate cytoskeletal changes that impinge on both cell cycle control and cell migration.

Abstract
A fundamental feature of cell polarity in response to spatial cues is asymmetric amplification of molecules generated by positive feedback signaling. We report a positive feedback loop between the guanosine triphosphatase Cdc42, a central determinant in eukaryotic cell polarity, and H+ efflux by Na-H+ exchanger 1 (NHE1), which is necessary at the front of migrating cells for polarity and directional motility. In response to migratory cues, Cdc42 is not activated in fibroblasts expressing a mutant NHE1 that lacks H+ efflux, and wild-type NHE1 is not activated in fibroblasts expressing mutationally inactive Cdc42-N17. H+ efflux by NHE1 is not necessary for release of Cdc42–guanosine diphosphate (GDP) from Rho GDP dissociation inhibitor or for the membrane recruitment of Cdc42 but is required for GTP binding by Cdc42 catalyzed by a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF). Data indicate that GEF binding to phosphotidylinositol 4,5–bisphosphate is pH dependent, suggesting a mechanism for how H+ efflux by NHE1 promotes Cdc42 activity to generate a positive feedback signal necessary for polarity in migrating cells.

Abstract
Rho-associated protein kinases (ROCKs) play key roles in mediating the control of the actin cytoskeleton by Rho family GTPases in response to extracellular signals. Such signaling pathways contribute to diverse neuronal functions from cell migration to axonal guidance to dendritic spine morphology to axonal regeneration to cell survival. In this review, the authors summarize biochemical knowledge of ROCK function and categorize neuronal ROCK-dependent signaling pathways. Further study of ROCK signal transduction mechanisms and specificities will enhance our understanding of brain development, plasticity, and repair. The ROCK pathway also provides a potential site for therapeutic intervention to promote neuronal regeneration and to limit degeneration.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The sodium-hydrogen exchanger isoform-1 (NHE1) functions in intracellular pH and cell volume homeostasis by catalyzing an electroneutral exchange of extracellular sodium and intracellular hydrogen. Recent studies have revealed the structural functions of NHE1 as an anchor for actin filaments and a scaffold for an ensemble of signaling proteins. This review highlights how these functions contribute to NHE1 regulation of biochemical events and cell behaviors. RECENT FINDINGS New data confirming nontransport structural functions of NHE1 suggest reexamining how NHE1 regulates cell functions. Cell survival, cell substrate adhesion, and organization of the actin cytoskeleton are confirmed to be regulated through actin anchoring by NHE1 and likely by NHE1-dependent scaffolding of signaling proteins. A role for NHE1 in mechanotransduction is emerging and a challenge of future studies is to determine whether structural functions of NHE1 are important for mechanoresponsiveness. SUMMARY This review highlights evidence for the nontransport functions of NHE1 and describes how the structural functions are integrated with ion translocation to regulate a range of cellular processes. Nontransporting features of NHE1 are analogous to recently observed nonconducting actions of ion channels in regulating cell behaviors and represent an emerging paradigm of ion transporters as multifunctional proteins.

Abstract
Pathological stress from cardiovascular disease stimulates hypertrophy of heart cells, which increases the risk of cardiac morbidity and mortality. Recent evidence has indicated that inhibiting such hypertrophy could be beneficial, encouraging drug discovery and development efforts for agents that could achieve this goal. Most existing therapies that have antihypertrophic effects target outside-in signalling in cardiac cells, but their effectiveness seems limited, and so attention has recently turned to the potential of targeting intracellular signalling pathways. Here, we focus on new developments with small-molecule inhibitors of cardiac hypertrophy, summarizing both agents that have been in or are poised for clinical testing, and pathways that offer further promising potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Ubiquitously expressed focal adhesion kinase (FAK), linked to multiple intracellular signaling pathways, has previously been shown to control cell motility, invasion, proliferation, and survival. Using mice with a keratinocyte-restricted deletion of fak (FAK(K5 KO)), we report here a novel role for FAK: maintenance of adult epidermal permeability barrier homeostasis. Abundant lacunae of unprocessed lipids in stratum corneum (SC) of FAK(K5 KO) mice and delayed barrier recovery pointed to malfunction of pH-dependent enzymes active in extracellular space of SC. Measuring the SC pH gradient showed significantly more neutral pH values in FAK(K5 KO) mice, suggesting the importance of FAK for acidification. Moreover, normal functions were restored when FAK(K5 KO) mice were exposed to a surface pH typical of mouse SC (pH = 5.5). Baseline levels and response to barrier disruption of secretory phospholipase A2 isoforms, enzymes that mediate generation of free fatty acids in epidermis, appeared similar in both FAK(K5 KO) and control littermates. We found that the critical SC acidification regulator Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 1 failed to localize to the plasma membrane in FAK-deficient keratinocytes both in vivo and in vitro. Thus, for plasma membrane localization in terminally differentiated keratinocytes, Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 1 requires an intact actin cytoskeleton, which is impaired in FAK-deficient cells.

Abstract
In mammalian eukaryotic cells, the Na+/H+ exchanger is a family of membrane proteins that regulates ions fluxes across membranes. Plasma membrane isoforms of this protein extrude 1 intracellular proton in exchange for 1 extracellular sodium. The family of Na+/H+ exchangers (NHEs) consists of 9 known isoforms, NHE1-NHE9. The NHE1 isoform was the first discovered, is the best characterized, and exists on the plasma membrane of all mammalian cells. It contains an N-terminal 500 amino acid membrane domain that transports ions, plus a 315 amino acid C-terminal, the intracellular regulatory domain. The Na+/H+ exchanger is regulated by both post-translational modifications including protein kinase-mediated phosphorylation, plus by a number of regulatory-binding proteins including phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate, calcineurin homologous protein, ezrin, radixin and moesin, calmodulin, carbonic anhydrase II, and tescalcin. The Na+/H+ exchanger is involved in a variety of complex physiological and pathological events that include regulation of intracellular pH, cell movement, heart disease, and cancer. This review summarizes recent advances in the understanding of the physiological role and regulation of this protein.

Abstract
We analyzed the effects of the Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE) inhibitor 3,5-diamino-6-chloro-N-(diaminomethylidene)pyrazine-2-carboxamide hydrochloride (amiloride) and its analogs 5-(N,N-dimethyl)-amiloride (DMA) and 5-(N-ethyl-N-isopropyl)-amiloride (EIPA) on the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced production of prostaglandin (PG) E2 in vitro and in vivo. In the mouse macrophage-like cell line RAW 264, these inhibitors suppressed the LPS (1 microg/ml)-induced production of PGE2 at 8 h in a concentration-dependent manner. They also reduced the LPS-induced release of arachidonic acid from membrane phospholipids at 4 h and the LPS-induced increase in the level of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 protein at 6 h, but not the level of COX-2 mRNA at 3 h. The LPS-induced phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases and degradation of inhibitor of kappaB-alpha were not inhibited by these drugs. In an air pouch-type LPS-induced inflammation model in mice 30 mg/kg amiloride and 10 mg/kg EIPA as well as the COX inhibitor indomethacin (10 mg/kg), significantly reduced the level of PGE2 in the pouch fluid at 8 h and the vascular permeability from 4 to 8 h. The accumulation of pouch fluid and leukocytes in the pouch fluid at 8 h was significantly inhibited by amiloride and EIPA but not by indomethacin. These findings suggested that the NHE inhibitors suppress the production of PGE2 through inhibiting the release of arachidonic acid and the increase in COX-2 protein levels and thus induce anti-inflammatory activity.

Abstract
Glycosylation of beta1 integrin (beta1) in the Golgi complex has been related to its function in multiple cell processes, e.g., invasiveness, matrix adhesion, and migration. Brefeldin A-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange proteins (BIG) 1 and BIG2 activate human ADP-ribosylation factors (ARF) 1 and ARF3 by catalyzing the replacement of ARF-bound GDP with GTP to regulate Golgi vesicular transport. We show here a requirement for BIG1 (but not BIG2) in glycosylation and function of beta1. In HepG2 cells treated for 48 or 72 h with BIG1, but not BIG2, siRNA, both the amount and electrophoretic mobility of the initially 130-kDa beta1 were increased. BIG1 content had risen by 48 h after removal of BIG1 siRNA, and the faster-migrating, aberrant 130-kDa beta1 was not seen. Peptide N-glycosidase F, but not endoglycosidase H, digestion converted all beta1 to an approximately 85-kDa (core protein) form. By electron microscopy, Golgi membranes in BIG1-depleted cells were less sharply defined than those in mock or BIG2 siRNA-treated cells, with more vesicle-like structures at the transface. Amounts of active RhoA-GTP also were decreased in such cells and restored by overexpression of HA-BIG1. Aberrant beta1 was present on the cell surface, but its function in cell spreading, adhesion, and migration was impaired. By immunofluorescence microscopy, BIG1 siRNA-treated cells showed less spreading and concentration of beta1 at the cell surface. These results indicate a previously unrecognized role for BIG1 in the glycosylation of beta1 by Golgi enzymes, which is critical for its function in developmental and other vital cell processes.

Abstract
At fertilization, the sea urchin egg undergoes an internal pH (pHi) increase mediated by a Na+ -H+ exchanger. We used antibodies against the mammalian antiporters NHE1 and NHE3 to characterize this exchanger. In unfertilized eggs, only anti-NHE3 cross-reacted specifically with a protein of 81-kDa, which localized to the plasma membrane and cortical granules. Cytochalasin D, C3 exotoxin (blocker of RhoGTPase function), and Y-27632 (inhibitor of Rho-kinase) prevented the pHi change in fertilized eggs. These inhibitors blocked the first cleavage division of the embryo, but not the cortical granule exocytosis. Thus, the sea urchin egg has an epithelial NHE3-like Na+ -H+ exchanger which can be responsible for the pHi change at fertilization. Determinants of this pHi change can be: (i) the increase of exchangers in the plasma membrane (via cortical granule exocytosis) and (ii) Rho, Rho-kinase, and optimal organization of the actin cytoskeleton as regulators, among others, of the intrinsic activity of the exchanger.

Abstract
BACKGROUND INFORMATION The c-Met-dependent, beta-actin-rich, blebbed pseudopodia of MSV-MDCK-INV (invasive Moloney-sarcoma-virus-transformed Madin-Darby canine kidney) cells are induced by Rho/ROCK (Rho kinase) activation, and are morphologically distinct from flat extended lamellipodia. RESULTS Microtubules were shown to extend to these actin-rich pseudopodial domains, and microtubule depolymerization by nocodazole treatment resulted in progressive cellular blebbing, initiating in the pseudopodial domains and resulting in transient cellular rounding and blebbing after 30 min. The blebbing response was dependent on autocrine HGF (hepatocyte growth factor) activation of c-Met and prevented by inhibition of RhoA, ROCK and p38 MAPK (p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase), but not ERK (extracellular-signal-regulated kinase) or PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase). Phospho-p38 MAPK was present in pseudopodia, localizing activation of this signalling pathway to this protrusive membrane structure. In serum-starved cells, LPA (lysophosphatidic acid) activation of RhoA induced p38 MAPK-dependent pseudopodial protrusions, and inhibition of p38 MAPK prevented pseudopodial protrusion and displacement of MSV-MDCK-INV cells. MSV-MDCK-INV cells exhibited intermittent blebbing and rounding, which may represent an integral part of their motile behaviour. CONCLUSIONS The localized activation of an autocrine HGF/c-Met loop regulates Rho/ROCK activation of p38 MAPK signalling to stimulate both membrane blebbing and pseudopod formation.

Abstract
The present study investigates the cytotoxic mechanisms induced by zinc (Zn) in haemocytes of mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis. Haemocytes play a key role in the immune defence of mussels. Micromolar concentration of Zn (50 microM) play an important role in the elevation of pHi and increase in Na+ influx in haemocytes. The observed effects were inhibited by the Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE) inhibitor, ethyl-N-isopropyl-amiloride (EIPA). Furthermore, our results showed that Zn caused an increase in O(-)(2) production that was reversed after NHE inhibition. Phorbol ester (PMA) caused a significant rise both in pHi and Na+ influx as well as in O(-)(2) production. These effects were reversed by calphostin C. Our results indicated that Zn also enhanced haemocyte attachment to both BSA and laminin which was reversed by EIPA and calphostin C. The enhancement of haemocytes attachment to both BSA and laminin after Zn suggests that it is likely to play a signal role in cytoskeleton-dependent process of cell growth and migration in mussel M. galloprovincialis haemocytes. We conclude that Zn induces a signaling pathway with the involvement of NHE, PKC, O(-)(2) and alpha1- and beta-adrenergic receptors.

Abstract
Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 5 (NHE5) is a brain-enriched NHE that may play important roles in ion homeostasis and cell-volume regulation. However, the regulation mechanism of NHE5 has not been fully elucidated. Here, we show that Receptor for Activated C-kinase 1 (RACK1) directly binds to NHE5 and positively regulates the transporter function. NHE5 co-localized with RACK1 as well as beta1 integrin, paxillin and vinculin, suggesting that NHE5 associates with focal adhesions. By using RACK1 dominant-negative mutants and siRNA, we further show that RACK1 regulates NHE5 both directly and through an integrin-dependent pathway. The NHE5-RACK1 interaction, but not the RACK1-beta1 integrin interaction, was reinforced when cells were spread on an integrin-substrate fibronectin. We propose that RACK1 activates NHE5 both by integrin-dependent and independent pathways, which may coordinate cellular ion homeostasis during cell-matrix adhesion.

Abstract
Cell migration plays a basic role in many physiological and pathophysiological processes such as embryogenesis, immune defence, wound healing or metastasis. The activity of the ubiquitously expressed NHE1 isoform of the plasma membrane Na+/H+ exchanger is one of the requirements for directed locomotion of migrating cells and also contributes to cell adhesion. The mechanisms by which NHE1 is involved in cell migration are multiple. NHE1 contributes to cell migration by affecting the cell volume, by regulating the intracellular pH and thereby the assembly and activity of cytoskeletal elements, by anchoring the cytoskeleton to the plasma membrane, by signalling, by regulating gene expression and by controlling cell adhesion. The present article gives a review of the different ways in which NHE1 is involved in and contributes to cell migration. These different mechanisms complement one another forming an intricate, integrative process.

Abstract
The ubiquitous plasma membrane Na+/H+ exchanger NHE1 is highly conserved across vertebrate species and is extensively characterized as a major membrane transport mechanism in the regulation of cellular pH and volume. In recent years, the understanding of the role of NHE1 in regulating cell function has expanded from one of a household protein involved in ion homeostasis to that of a multifaceted regulator and/or modulator of a wide variety of cell functions. NHE1 plays pivotal roles in response to a number of important physiological stress conditions which, in addition to cell shrinkage and acidification, include hypoxia and mechanical stimuli, such as cell stretch. It has recently become apparent that NHE1-mediated modulation of, e.g., cell migration, morphology, proliferation, and death results not only from NHE1-mediated changes in pHi, cell volume, and/or [Na+]i, but also from direct protein-protein interactions with, e.g., ezrin/radixin/moesin (ERM) proteins and regulation of cellular signaling events, including the activity of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and Akt/protein kinase B (PKB). The aim of this review is to present and discuss new findings implicating NHE1 activation as a central signaling event activated by stress conditions and modulating cell proliferation and death. The pathophysiological importance of NHE1 in modulating the balance between cell proliferation and cell death in cancer and in ischemia/severe hypoxia will also be briefly addressed.

Abstract
Mitogens control progression through the cell cycle in non-transformed cells by complex cascades of intracellular messengers, such as Ca2+ and protons, and by cell volume changes. Intracellular Ca2+ and proton concentrations are critical for linking external stimuli to proliferation, motility, apoptosis and differentiation. This review summarizes the role in cell proliferation of calcium release from intracellular stores and the Ca2+ entry through plasma membrane Ca2+ channels. In addition, the impact of intracellular pH and cell volume on cell proliferation is discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to show the effect of high glucose concentrations in combination with a pharmaceutical analog of the Na+/H+ antiport inhibitor, cariporide, on scavenger receptor CD36 expression, cell adhesion, and cell migration of human monocytes derived from obese and normal individuals. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES Monocytes were isolated from six healthy obese individuals and six healthy age- and sex-matched controls by use of whole blood Percoll sedimentation and plastic surface monocyte binding. The density of CD36 scavenger receptors on the surface of monocytes was assessed by the use of a fluorescent fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-linked monoclonal antibody. Transmigration of monocytes through laminin-1-coated filters was performed on 5-microm pore Transwell culture inserts. Monocyte attachment to laminin was estimated by a solid phase assay. RESULTS High glucose concentrations caused an increase in monocytes from normal and obese individuals in the expression of CD36 receptors and positively influenced monocyte migration and adhesion to laminin. Cariporide together with glucose counteracted these effects. The effects of migration and adhesion of monocytes to laminin were specific to glucose, because the effect was significantly higher when monocytes were incubated in the presence of 20 mM of glucose than in the presence of 20 mM of fructose. Monocytes from obese subjects showed greater response than in normal to all of the studied effects, with the highest response in laminin attachment. DISCUSSION The data of this study suggest that cariporide counteracts atherosclerosis-related functions through Na+/H+ antiport inhibition in monocytes from both normal and obese individuals.

Abstract
Rho GTPases are overexpressed in human tumors and are involved in a variety of cellular processes such as organization of the actin cytoskeleton, cell-cell contact and malignant transformation. EGFR activation plays a key role in the acquisition of motile properties in carcinoma cells, and it has been proposed that downregulation of FAK activity is one of its most relevant consequences. In the present study, using mammary MCF-7 cells, we demonstrated that overexpression of the active form of the small GTPase RhoA induced the activation of EGFR by a phenomenon that depends on the activity of a metalloproteinase (MMP), which presumably cleaves a membrane-bound EGFR ligand. The EGFR tyrosine phosphorylation correlates with ERK1,2 activation and the stimulation of urokinase production. An aggressive mammary cell line (MDA-MB-231) that overexpresses both RhoA and EGFR in their active forms also displayed an MMP-dependent activation mechanism of EGFR. RhoA-GTP-transfected cells showed a cortical array of F-actin, rounded morphology, reduced spreading potential and a dephosphorylation of FAK that was released by integrin-dependent fibronectin adhesion and a specific EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Our results suggest that the MMP-dependent EGFR activation observed in V14 RhoA cells represents the starting point of a signaling route that promotes cell motility by activation of ERK1,2 and further enhancement of proteases production.

Abstract
Looked at from the genetic point-of-view cancer represents a daunting and, frankly, confusing multiplicity of diseases (at least 100) that require an equally large variety of therapeutic strategies and substances designed to treat the particular tumor. However, when analyzed phenotypically cancer is a relatively uniform disease of very conserved 'hallmark' behaviors across the entire spectrum of tissue and genetic differences [D. Hanahan, R.A. Weinberg, Hallmarks of cancer, Cell 100 (2000) 57-70]. This suggests that cancers do, indeed, share common biochemical and physiological characteristics that are independent of the varied genetic backgrounds, and that there may be a common mechanism underlying both the neoplastic transformation/progression side and the antineoplastic/therapy side of oncology. The challenge of modern oncology is to integrate all the diverse experimental data to create a physiological/metabolic/energetic paradigm that can unite our thinking in order to understand how both neoplastic progression and therapies function. This reductionist view gives the hope that, as in chemistry and physics, it will possible to identify common underlying driving forces that define a tumor and will permit, for the first time, the actual calculated manipulation of their state. That is, a rational therapeutic design. In the present review, we present evidence, obtained from a great number of studies, for a fundamental, underlying mechanism involved in the initiation and evolution of the neoplastic process. There is an ever growing body of evidence that all the important neoplastic phenotypes are driven by an alkalization of the transformed cell, a process which seems specific for transformed cells since the same alkalinization has no effect in cells that have not been transformed. Seen in that light, different fields of cancer research, from etiopathogenesis, cancer cell metabolism and neovascularization, to multiple drug resistance (MDR), selective apoptosis, modern cancer chemotherapy and the spontaneous regression of cancer (SRC) all appear to have in common a pivotal characteristic, the aberrant regulation of hydrogen ion dynamics [S. Harguindey, J.L. Pedraz, R. García Cañero, J. Pérez de Diego, E.J. Cragoe Jr., Hydrogen ion-dependent oncogenesis and parallel new avenues to cancer prevention and treatment using a H+-mediated unifying approach: pH-related and pH-unrelated mechanisms, Crit. Rev. Oncog. 6 (1) (1995) 1-33]. Cancer cells have an acid-base disturbance that is completely different than observed in normal tissues and that increases in correspondence with increasing neoplastic state: an interstitial acid microenvironment linked to an intracellular alkalosis.

Abstract
Cell migration is crucial for immune defence, wound healing or formation of tumour metastases. It has been shown that the activity of the Na(+)-H(+) exchanger (NHE1) plays an important role in cell migration. However, so far it is unknown whether Na(+)- HCO(3)(-) cotransport (NBC), which has similar functions in the regulation of intracellular pH (pH(i)) as NHE1, is also involved in cell migration. We therefore isolated NHE-deficient Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK-F) cells and tested whether NBC compensates for NHE in pH(i) and cell volume regulation as well as in migration. Intracellular pH was measured with the fluorescent pH indicator 2'7'-bis(carboxyethyl)-5-carboxyfluorescein (BCECF). The expression of NBC isoforms was determined with semiquantitative PCR. Migration was monitored with time-lapse video microscopy and quantified as the displacement of the cell centre. We found that MDCK-F cells express the isoform NBC1 (SLCA4A gene product) at a much higher level than the isoform kNBC3 (SLCA4A8 gene product). This difference is even more pronounced in NHE-deficient cells so that NBC1 is likely to be the major acid extruder in these cells and the major mediator of propionate-induced cell volume increase. NHE-deficient MDCK-F cells migrate more slowly than normal MDCK-F cells. NBC activity promotes migration during an acute intracellular acid load and increases migratory speed and displacement on a short timescale (< 30 min) whereas it has no effect on the long-term behaviour of migrating MDCK-F cells. Taken together, our results show that NBC actvity, despite many functional similarities, does not have the same importance for cell migration as NHE1 activity.
