Abstract
The calcium ion (Ca(2+)) is the main common second messenger involved in signaling transduction subsequent to immunoreceptor activation. Its rapid intracellular elevation induces multiple cellular responses, such as secretion, proliferation, mobility, and gene transcription. Intracellular levels of Ca(2+) need to reach a specific threshold to efficiently transduce the signal to activate transcription factors through the recruitment of Ca(2+)-binding molecules. However, since Ca(2+) cannot be metabolized, its intracellular concentration is tightly regulated to avoid the induction of programmed cell death. This highly controlled regulation of Ca(2+) homeostasis has recently been clarified by the uncovering of new ion channels. The regulation of these channels allows the role of Ca(2+) in Fc receptor transduction pathways to be more precisely defined.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Shotgun proteomics is a powerful analytic method to characterize complex protein mixtures in combination with multidimensional liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). We used this platform for proteomic characterization of apoptotic bodies in an effort to define the complex protein mixtures found in primary cultures of human intrahepatic biliary epithelial cells (HiBEC), human renal proximal tubular epithelial cells, human bronchial epithelial cells, isolated intrahepatic biliary epithelial cells from explanted primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), and control liver using a total of 24 individual samples. Further, as additional controls and for purposes of comparison, proteomic signatures were also obtained from intact cells and apoptotic bodies. The data obtained from LC-MS/MS, combined with database searches and protein assembly algorithms, allowed us to address significant differences in protein spectral counts and identify unique pathways that may be a component of the induction of the signature inflammatory cytokine response against BECs, including the Notch signaling pathway, interleukin (IL)8, IL6, CXCR2, and integrin signaling. Indeed, there are 11 proteins that localize specifically to apoptotic bodies of HiBEC and eight proteins that were specifically absent in HiBEC apoptotic bodies. CONCLUSION Proteomic analysis of BECs from PBC liver compared to normal liver are significantly different, suggesting that an immunological attack affects the repertoire of proteins expressed and that such cells should be thought of as living in an environment undergoing continuous selection secondary to an innate and adaptive immune response, reflecting an almost "Darwinian" bias.

Abstract
In this Review we discuss data demonstrating recently recognized aspects of neutrophil homeostasis in the steady state, granulopoiesis in 'emergency' conditions and interactions of neutrophils with the adaptive immune system. We explore in vivo observations of the recruitment of neutrophils from blood to tissues in models of blood-borne infections versus bacterial invasion through epithelial linings. We examine data on novel aspects of the activation of NADPH oxidase and the heterogeneity of phagosomes and, finally, consider the importance of two neutrophil-derived biological agents: neutrophil extracellular traps and ectosomes.

Abstract
Previously, we found that interleukin 22 (IL-22) inhibits intracellular growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs). In the current study, we determined the mechanisms underlying these effects. We found that W7, a phagolysosomal fusion inhibitor, abrogates IL-22-dependent M. tuberculosis growth inhibition in MDMs, suggesting that IL-22 acts through enhanced phagolysosomal fusion. Our microarray analysis indicated that recombinant IL-22 (rIL-22) enhances the expression of an intracellular signaling molecule, calgranulin A. This was confirmed by real-time polymerase chain reaction, Western blot, and confocal microscopy. Calgranulin A small interfering RNA (siRNA) abrogated rIL-22-dependent growth inhibition of M. tuberculosis in MDMs. IL-22 enhanced Rab7 expression and downregulated Rab14 expression of M. tuberculosis-infected MDMs, and these effects were reversed by calgranulin A siRNA. These results suggest that M. tuberculosis growth inhibition by IL-22 depends on calgranulin A and enhanced phagolysosomal fusion, which is associated with increased Rab7 and reduced Rab14 expression.

Abstract
The stromal-interacting molecule 1 (STIM1) is a potent sensor of intracellular calcium, which in turn regulates entry of external calcium through plasma membrane channels to affect immune cell activation. Although the contribution of STIM1 to calcium signaling in lymphocytes has been well studied, the role of this protein in neutrophil-mediated inflammation and host defense is unknown. We report that STIM1-deficient murine neutrophils show loss of store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) in response to both soluble ligands that activate G-proteins as well as Fcγ-receptor or integrin ligation that activates tyrosine kinase signaling. This results in modest defects in phagocytosis and degranulation responses but a profound block in superoxide production by the phagocyte oxidase. We trace the primary intracellular target of calcium to be protein kinase C isoforms α and β (PKCα and PKCβ), which in turn phosphorylate subunits of the oxidase leading to superoxide production. In vivo the loss of SOCE in stim1(-/-) chimeric mice results in marked susceptibility to bacterial infections but also protection from tissue injury in hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury. These results demonstrate the critical role of STIM1-mediated SOCE and define major protein targets of calcium signaling in neutrophil activation during inflammatory disease.

Abstract
Immunodeficiencies with nonfunctional T cells comprise a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by altered function of T lymphocytes in spite of largely preserved T cell development. Some of these forms are due to hypomorphic mutations in genes causing severe combined immunodeficiency. More recently, advances in human genome sequencing have facilitated the identification of novel genetic defects that do not affect T cell development, but alter T cell function and homeostasis. Along with increased susceptibility to infections, these conditions are characterized by autoimmunity and higher risk of malignancies. The study of these diseases, and of corresponding animal models, has provided fundamental insights on the mechanisms that govern immune homeostasis.

Abstract
The S100 protein family consists of 24 members functionally distributed into three main subgroups: those that only exert intracellular regulatory effects, those with intracellular and extracellular functions and those which mainly exert extracellular regulatory effects. S100 proteins are only expressed in vertebrates and show cell-specific expression patterns. In some instances, a particular S100 protein can be induced in pathological circumstances in a cell type that does not express it in normal physiological conditions. Within cells, S100 proteins are involved in aspects of regulation of proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, Ca2+ homeostasis, energy metabolism, inflammation and migration/invasion through interactions with a variety of target proteins including enzymes, cytoskeletal subunits, receptors, transcription factors and nucleic acids. Some S100 proteins are secreted or released and regulate cell functions in an autocrine and paracrine manner via activation of surface receptors (e.g. the receptor for advanced glycation end-products and toll-like receptor 4), G-protein-coupled receptors, scavenger receptors, or heparan sulfate proteoglycans and N-glycans. Extracellular S100A4 and S100B also interact with epidermal growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor, respectively, thereby enhancing the activity of the corresponding receptors. Thus, extracellular S100 proteins exert regulatory activities on monocytes/macrophages/microglia, neutrophils, lymphocytes, mast cells, articular chondrocytes, endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells, neurons, astrocytes, Schwann cells, epithelial cells, myoblasts and cardiomyocytes, thereby participating in innate and adaptive immune responses, cell migration and chemotaxis, tissue development and repair, and leukocyte and tumor cell invasion.

Abstract
Circadian oscillations in peripheral tissues, such as the retinal compartment of the eye, are critical to anticipating changing metabolic demands. Circadian shedding of retinal photoreceptor cell discs with subsequent phagocytosis by the neighboring retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) is essential for removal of toxic metabolites and lifelong survival of these postmitotic neurons. Defects in photoreceptor phagocytosis can lead to severe retinal pathology, but the biochemical mechanisms remain poorly defined. By first documenting a 2.8-fold burst of photoreceptor phagocytosis events in the mouse eye in the morning compared with the afternoon by serial block face imaging, we established time points to assess transcriptional readouts by RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). We identified 365 oscillating protein-coding transcripts that implicated the phosphoinositide lipid signaling network mediating the discrete steps of photoreceptor phagocytosis. Moreover, examination of overlapping cistromic sites by core clock transcription factors and promoter elements of these effector genes provided a functional basis for the circadian cycling of these transcripts. RNA-Seq also revealed oscillating expression of 16 long intergenic noncoding RNAs and key histone modifying enzymes critical for circadian gene expression. Our phenotypic and genotypic characterization reveals a complex global landscape of overlapping and temporally controlled networks driving the essential circadian process in the eye.

Abstract
Unraveling the mechanisms involved in chemotactic navigation of immune cells is of particular interest for the development of new immunoregulatory therapies. It is generally agreed upon that members of the classical transient receptor potential channel family (TRPC) are involved in chemotaxis. However, the regulatory role of TRPC channels in chemoattractant receptor-mediated signaling has not yet been clarified in detail. In this study, we demonstrate that the TRPC6 channels play a pronounced role in CXCR2-mediated intermediary chemotaxis, whereas N-formyl-methionine-leucine-phenylalanine receptor-mediated end-target chemotaxis is TRPC6 independent. The knockout of TRPC6 channels in murine neutrophils led to a strongly impaired intermediary chemotaxis after CXCR2 activation which is not further reinforced by CXCR2, PI3K, or p38 MAPK inhibition. Furthermore, CXCR2-mediated Ca(2+) influx but not Ca(2+) store release was attenuated in TRPC6(-/-) neutrophils. We demonstrate that the TRPC6 deficiency affected phosphorylation of AKT and MAPK downstream of CXCR2 receptor activation and led to altered remodeling of actin. The relevance of this TRPC6-depending defect in neutrophil chemotaxis is underscored by our in vivo findings. A nonseptic peritoneal inflammation revealed an attenuated recruitment of neutrophils in the peritoneal cavity of TRPC6(-/-) mice. In summary, this paper defines a specific role of TRPC6 channels in CXCR2-induced intermediary chemotaxis. In particular, TRPC6-mediated supply of calcium appears to be critical for activation of downstream signaling components.

Abstract
In the phagocytosis field, ROS production by the phagocyte NOX has been associated with pathogen killing for the last 50 years. Since the discovery of nonphagocyte NOX, numerous other roles for ROS production have been identified. Oxidative stress and ROS-mediated signaling have received much attention in recent years. Much lower concentrations of ROS may be required for signaling compared with microbial killing. Based on the discoveries in nonphagocytic cells, it became logical to look for ROS functions distinct from pathogen killing, even in phagocytes. ROS are now linked to various forms of cell death, to chemotaxis, and to numerous modifications of cellular processes, including the NOX itself. ROS functions are clearly concentration-dependent over a wide range of concentrations. How much is required for which function? Which species are required for how much time? Is ROS signaling only a side effect of bactericidal ROS production? One major obstacle to answer these questions is the difficulty of reliable quantitative ROS detection. Signal transduction often takes place on a subcellular scale over periods of seconds or minutes, so the detection methods need to provide appropriate time and space resolution. We present examples of local ROS production, decreased degradation, signaling events, and potentially ROS-sensitive functions. We attempt to illustrate the current limitations for quantitative spatiotemporal ROS detection and point out directions for ongoing development. Probes for localized ROS detection and for combined detection of ROS, together with protein localization or other cellular parameters, are constantly improved.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) is an important Ca(2+) influx pathway, which is defined by the fact that depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores, mainly the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), triggers the opening of Ca(2+) channels in the plasma membrane. The best characterized SOC channel is the Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channel, which was first described in cells of the immune system but has since been reported in many different cell types. CRAC channels are multimers of ORAI family proteins, of which ORAI1 is the best characterized. They are activated by stromal interaction molecules (STIM) 1 and 2, which respond to the depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores with oligomerization and binding to ORAI proteins. The resulting SOCE is critical for the physiological function of many cell types including immune cells and platelets. Recent studies using cell lines, animal models and primary cells from human patients with defects in SOCE have highlighted the importance of this Ca(2+) entry mechanism in a variety of pathophysiological processes. This review focuses on the role of SOCE in immunity to infection, allergy, hemostasis and cancer.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Reactive oxygen species, produced by the phagosomal NADPH oxidase of neutrophils, play a significant physiological role during normal defense. Their role is not only to kill invading pathogens, but also to act as modulators of global physiological functions of phagosomes. Given the importance of NADPH oxidase in the immune system, its activity has to be decisively controlled by distinctive mechanisms to ensure appropriate regulation at the phagosome. RECENT ADVANCES Here, we describe the signal transduction pathways that regulate phagosomal NADPH oxidase in neutrophils, with an emphasis on the role of lipid metabolism and intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization. CRITICAL ISSUES The potential involvement of Ca(2+)-binding S100A8 and S100A9 proteins, known to interact with the plasma membrane NADPH oxidase, is also considered. FUTURE DIRECTIONS Recent technical progress in advanced live imaging microscopy will permit to focus more accurately on phagosomal rather than plasma membrane NADPH oxidase regulation during neutrophil phagocytosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE We explored the role of myeloid-related protein 8 and 14 (MRP8/14) in Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) keratitis. METHODS MRP8/14 mRNA levels in human corneal scrapes and mouse corneas infected by PA were tested using real-time PCR. MRP8/14 protein expression in C57BL/6 (B6) corneas was confirmed using Western blot assay and immunohistochemistry. B6 mice were injected subconjunctivally with siRNA for MRP8/14, and then infected with PA. Bacterial plate counts and myeloperoxidase assays were used to determine the bacterial load and polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) infiltration in infected B6 corneas. Pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in vivo and in vitro were examined with PCR and ELISA. In murine macrophage-like RAW264.7 cells, phagocytosis and bacterial killing were assessed using plate count assays, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) levels were tested with flow cytometry and Griess assay, respectively. RESULTS MRP8/14 expression levels were increased significantly in human corneal scrapes and B6 corneas after PA infection. Silencing of MRP8/14 in B6 corneas significantly reduced the severity of corneal disease, bacterial clearance, PMN infiltration, and pro-inflammatory cytokine expression after PA infection. In vitro studies demonstrated further that silencing of MRP8/14 suppressed pro-inflammatory cytokine production, bacterial killing, and ROS production, but not phagocytosis or NO production. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated a dual role for MRP8/14 in bacterial keratitis. Although MRP8/14 promotes bacterial clearance by enhancing ROS production, it functions more importantly as an inflammatory amplifier at the ocular surface by enhancing pro-inflammatory cytokine expression, thus contributing to the corneal susceptibility.

Abstract
Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) comprises a group of disorders that are fatal owing to genetic defects that abrogate T cell development. Numerous related defects have recently been identified that allow T cell development but that compromise T cell function by affecting proximal or distal steps in intracellular signaling. These functional T cell immunodeficiencies are characterized by immune dysregulation and increased risk of malignancies, in addition to infections. The study of patients with these rare conditions, and of corresponding animal models, illustrates the importance of intracellular signaling to maintain T cell homeostasis.

Abstract
Stromal interaction molecule (STIM) proteins function in cells as dynamic coordinators of cellular calcium (Ca(2+)) signals. Spanning the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane, they sense tiny changes in the levels of Ca(2+) stored within the ER lumen. As ER Ca(2+) is released to generate primary Ca(2+) signals, STIM proteins undergo an intricate activation reaction and rapidly translocate into junctions formed between the ER and the plasma membrane. There, STIM proteins tether and activate the highly Ca(2+)-selective Orai channels to mediate finely controlled Ca(2+) signals and to homeostatically balance cellular Ca(2+). Details are emerging on the remarkable organization within these STIM-induced junctional microdomains and the identification of new regulators and alternative target proteins for STIM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes are recruited to phagosomes, but the mechanism and functional significance of this ER recruitment is not known. Here, we show that the ER Ca(2+) sensor stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) sustains high-efficiency phagocytosis by recruiting thin ER cisternae that interact productively but do not fuse with phagosomes. RESULTS Endogenous STIM1 was recruited to phagosomes upon ER Ca(2+) depletion in mouse neutrophils, and exogenous YFP-STIM1 puncta coincided with localized Ca(2+) elevations around phagosomes in fibroblasts expressing phagocytic receptors. STIM1 ablation decreased phagocytosis, ER-phagosome contacts, and periphagosomal Ca(2+) elevations in both neutrophils and fibroblasts, whereas STIM1 re-expression in Stim1(-/-) fibroblasts rescued these defects, promoted the formation and elongation of tight ER-phagosome contacts upon ER Ca(2+) depletion and increased the shedding of periphagosomal actin rings. Re-expression of a signaling-deficient STIM1 mutant unable to open Ca(2+) channels recruited ER cisternae to the vicinity of phagosomes but failed to rescue phagocytosis, actin shedding, and periphagosomal Ca(2+) elevations. The periphagosomal Ca(2+) hotspots were decreased by extracellular Ca(2+) chelation and by Ca(2+) channels inhibitors, revealing that the Ca(2+) ions originate at least in part from phagosomes. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that STIM1 recruits ER cisternae near phagosomes for signaling purposes and that the opening of phagosomal Ca(2+) channels generates localized Ca(2+) elevations that promote high-efficiency phagocytosis.

Abstract
A favorable outcome following acute bacterial infection depends on the ability of phagocytic cells to be recruited and properly activated within injured tissues. Calcium (Ca(2+)) is a ubiquitous second messenger implicated in the functions of many cells, but the mechanisms involved in the regulation of Ca(2+) mobilization in hematopoietic cells are largely unknown. The monovalent cation channel transient receptor potential melastatin (TRPM) 4 is involved in the control of Ca(2+) signaling in some hematopoietic cell types, but the role of this channel in phagocytes and its relevance in the control of inflammation remain unexplored. In this study, we report that the ablation of the Trpm4 gene dramatically increased mouse mortality in a model of sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture. The lack of the TRPM4 channel affected macrophage population within bacteria-infected peritoneal cavities and increased the systemic level of Ly6C(+) monocytes and proinflammatory cytokine production. Impaired Ca(2+) mobilization in Trpm4(-/-) macrophages downregulated the AKT signaling pathway and the subsequent phagocytic activity, resulting in bacterial overgrowth and translocation to the bloodstream. In contrast, no alteration in the distribution, function, or Ca(2+) mobilization of Trpm4(-/-) neutrophils was observed, indicating that the mechanism controlling Ca(2+) signaling differs among phagocytes. Our results thus show that the tight control of Ca(2+) influx by the TRPM4 channel is critical for the proper functioning of monocytes/macrophages and the efficiency of the subsequent response to infection.

Abstract
Recent work on animal models has revealed the important role played by the voltage-gated proton channel Hv1 during bacterial killing by innate immune cells. Studies from mice lacking Hv1 channels showed that Hv1 proton channels are required for high-level production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by the NADPH oxidase of phagocytes (NOX2) in two ways. First, Hv1 channels maintain a physiological membrane potential during the respiratory burst of neutrophils by providing a compensating charge for the electrons transferred by NOX2 from NADPH to superoxide. Second, Hv1 channels maintain a physiological cytosolic pH by extruding the acid generated by the NOX2-dependent consumption of NADPH. The two mechanisms directly sustain the activity of the NOX2 enzyme and indirectly sustain other neutrophil functions by enhancing the driving force for the entry of calcium into cells, thereby boosting cellular calcium signals. The increased depolarization of Hv1-deficient neutrophils aborted calcium responses to chemoattractants and revealed adhesion and migration defects that were associated with an impaired depolymerization of the cortical actin cytoskeleton. Current research aims to transpose these findings to phagosomes, the phagocytic vacuoles where bacterial killing takes place. However, the mechanisms that control the phagosomal pH appear to vary greatly between phagocytes: phagosomes rapidly acidify in macrophages but remain neutral for several minutes in neutrophils following ingestion of solid particles, whereas in dendritic cells phagosomes alkalinize, a mechanism thought to promote antigen cross-presentation. In this review, we discuss how the knowledge gained on the role of Hv1 channels at the plasma membrane of neutrophils can be used to study the regulation of the phagosomal pH, ROS, membrane potential, and calcium fluxes in different phagocytic cells.

Abstract
Extracellular nucleotides such as ATP, ADP, UTP, UDP and UDPG can trigger intracellular signal transduction via purinergic (P2Y) receptors, and their interaction induces a wide range of biological effects in various cells. In this study, we investigated P2Y expression and the effects of nucleotides on chemotaxis and phagocytosis in human neutrophils. RT-PCR detected broad expression of P2Y subfamilies in neutrophils, as well as monocytes. Moreover, intracellular Ca(2+) increased in response to ATP, ADP, UTP and UDP in these cells, suggesting that P2Y receptors were functionally expressed. In neutrophils, chemotactic activity was increased significantly in response to ATP and ADP, and moderately in response to UTP and UDP; actin polymerization by ATP, ADP, UTP and UDP was also evident in the cells. Interestingly, we found that ATP and ADP, which enhanced chemotaxis activity significantly, had inhibitory effects on phagocytosis by neutrophils. These findings provide new evidence for the regulation of neutrophil phagocytosis by nucleotides. Furthermore, this inhibitory effect was completely lost upon co-culture with fMLP or LPS, known constituents of bacteria, resulting in recovery of normal phagocytic activity. Taken together, these findings suggest that ATP and ADP constantly stimulate the chemotactic activity of neutrophils in peripheral blood, but may inhibit their phagocytic activity until they encounter pathogens, in order to prevent them acting against self-tissues or cells, as fMLP and LPS commonly present in pathogens would again trigger normal phagocytic activity.

Abstract
Mutations in genes encoding the calcium-release activated calcium (CRAC) channel abolish calcium influx in cells of the immune system and cause severe congenital immunodeficiency. Patients with autosomal recessive mutations in the CRAC channel gene ORAI1, its activator stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), and mice with targeted deletion of Orai1, Stim1, and Stim2 genes reveal important roles for CRAC channels in adaptive and innate immune responses to infection and in autoimmunity. Because CRAC channels have important functions outside the immune system, deficiency of either ORAI1 or STIM1 is associated with a unique clinical phenotype. This review will give an overview of CRAC channel function in the immune system, examine the consequences of CRAC channel deficiency for immunity in human patients and mice, and discuss genetic defects in immunoreceptor-associated signaling molecules that compromise calcium influx and cause immunodeficiency.

Abstract
Calcium signals play a critical role in many cell-type specific effector functions during innate and adaptive immune responses. The predominant mechanism to raise intracellular (Ca²⁺) used by most immune cells is store-operated Ca²⁺ entry (SOCE), whereby the depletion of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca²⁺ stores triggers the influx of extracellular Ca²⁺. SOCE in immune cells is mediated by the highly Ca²⁺ selective Ca²⁺-release-activated Ca²⁺ (CRAC) channel, encoded by ORAI1, ORAI2 and ORAI3 genes. ORAI proteins are activated by stromal interaction molecules (STIM) 1 and 2, which act as sensors of ER Ca²⁺ store depletion. The importance of SOCE mediated by STIM and ORAI proteins for immune function is evident from the immunodeficiency and autoimmunity in patients with mutations in STIM1 and ORAI1 genes. These patients and studies in gene-targeted mice have revealed an essential role for ORAI/STIM proteins in the function of several immune cells. This review focuses on recent advances made towards understanding the role of SOCE in immune cells with an emphasis on the immune dysregulation that results from defects in SOCE in human patients and transgenic mice.

Abstract
Phagocytes are specialized cells of the immune system, designed to engulf and destroy harmful microorganisms inside the newly formed phagosome. The latter is an intracellular organelle that is transformed into a toxic environment within minutes and disappears once the pathogen is destroyed. Reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species are produced inside the phagosome. Intracellular granules or lysosomes of the phagocyte fuse with the phagosome and liberate their destructive enzymes. This process of phagocytosis efficiently protects against most infections; however, some microorganisms avoid their destruction and cause severe damage. To understand such failure of phagosomal killing, we need to learn more about the actual destruction process in the phagosome. This paper summarizes methods to investigate the biochemistry of the phagosome and discusses some of their limitations. In accordance with the nature of the phagosome, the issue of localization and temporal dynamics is emphasized, and recent developments are highlighted.

Abstract
The Fc receptor complex and its associated phagocytic cytoskeleton machinery were captured from the surface of live cells by IgG coated microbeads and identified by mass spectrometry. The random and independently sampled intensity values of peptides were similar in the control and IgG samples. After log transformation, the parent and fragment intensity values showed a normal distribution where ≥99.9% of the data was well above the background noise. Some proteins showed significant differences in intensity between the IgG and control samples by ANOVA followed by the Tukey-Kramer honestly significant difference test. However many proteins were specific to the IgG beads or the control beads. The set of detected cytoskeleton proteins, binding proteins and enzymes detected on the IgG beads were used to predict the network of actin-associated regulatory factors. Signaling factors/proteins such as PIK3, PLC, GTPases (such CDC42, Rho GAPs/GEFs), annexins and inositol triphosphate receptors were all identified as being specific to the activated receptor complex by mass spectrometry. In addition, the tyrosine kinase Fak was detected with the IgG coated beads. Hence, an activated receptor cytoskeleton complex and its associated regulatory proteins were captured from the surface of live human primary leukocytes.
