BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA. MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2022; 1869:119361. [PMID: 36162649 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamcr.2022.119361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 08/29/2022] [Accepted: 09/12/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Phospholipase D1 (PLD1) plays a crucial role in cell differentiation of different cell types. However, the involvement of PLD1 in astrocytic differentiation remains uncertain. In the present study, we investigate the possible role of PLD1 and its product phosphatidic acid (PA) in astrocytic differentiation of hippocampal neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) from hippocampi of embryonic day 16.5 rat embryos. We showed that overexpression of PLD1 increased the expression level of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), an astrocyte marker, and the number of GFAP-positive cells. Knockdown of PLD1 by transfection with Pld1 shRNA inhibited astrocytic differentiation. Moreover, PLD1 deletion (Pld1-/-) suppressed the level of GFAP in the mouse hippocampus. These results indicate that PLD1 plays a crucial role in regulating astrocytic differentiation in hippocampal NSPCs. Interestingly, PA itself was sufficient to promote astrocytic differentiation. PA-induced GFAP expression was decreased by inhibition of signal transducer and activation of transcription 3 (STAT3) using siRNA. Furthermore, PA-induced STAT3 activation and astrocytic differentiation were regulated by the focal adhesion kinase (FAK)/aurora kinase A (AURKA) pathway. Taken together, our findings suggest that PLD1 is an important modulator of astrocytic differentiation in hippocampal NSPCs via the FAK/AURKA/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Bcl-2 Overexpression Induces Neurite Outgrowth via the Bmp4/Tbx3/NeuroD1 Cascade in H19-7 Cells. Cell Mol Neurobiol 2019; 40:153-166. [PMID: 31493044 DOI: 10.1007/s10571-019-00732-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2019] [Accepted: 08/29/2019] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Bcl-2 is overexpressed in the nervous system during neural development and plays an important role in modulating cell survival. In addition to its anti-apoptotic function, it has been suggested previously that Bcl-2 might act as a mediator of neuronal differentiation. However, the mechanism by which Bcl-2 might influence neurogenesis is not sufficiently understood. In this study, we aimed to determine the non-apoptotic functions of Bcl-2 during neuronal differentiation. First, we used microarrays to analyze the whole-genome expression patterns of rat neural stem cells overexpressing Bcl-2 and found that Bcl-2 overexpression induced the expression of various neurogenic genes. Moreover, Bcl-2 overexpression increased the neurite length as well as expression of Bmp4, Tbx3, and proneural basic helix-loop-helix genes, such as NeuroD1, NeuroD2, and Mash1, in H19-7 rat hippocampal precursor cells. To determine the hierarchy of these molecules, we selectively depleted Bmp4, Tbx3, and NeuroD1 in Bcl-2-overexpressing cells. Bmp4 depletion suppressed the upregulation of Tbx3 and NeuroD1 as well as neurite outgrowth, which was induced by Bcl-2 overexpression. Although Tbx3 knockdown repressed Bcl-2-mediated neurite elaboration and downregulated NeuroD1 expression, it did not affect Bcl-2-induced Bmp4 expression. While the depletion of NeuroD1 had no effect on the expression of Bcl-2, Bmp4, or Tbx3, Bcl-2-mediated neurite outgrowth was suppressed. Taken together, these results demonstrate that Bcl-2 regulates neurite outgrowth through the Bmp4/Tbx3/NeuroD1 cascade in H19-7 cells, indicating that Bcl-2 may have a direct role in neuronal development in addition to its well-known anti-apoptotic function in response to environmental insults.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify the role of phospholipase D1 (PLD1) in Amb a 1-induced IL-5 and IL-13 expression. When BEAS-2B cells were stimulated with Amb a 1, PLD activity increased, and knockdown of PLD1 decreased Amb a 1-induced IL-5 and IL-13 expression. Amb a 1 also activated the PLCγ/p70S6K/JNK pathway. Furthermore, Amb a 1-induced PLD activation was also attenuated by PLCγ inhibition, and knockdown of PLD1 decreased Amb a 1-induced activation of P70S6K and JNK. When ATF-2 activity was blocked with ATF-2 siRNA, Amb a 1-induced IL-5 and IL-13 expression was completely abolished, indicating that ATF-2 is a transcriptional factor required for the expression of IL-5 and IL-13 in response to Amb a 1. Taken together, we suggest that PLD1 acts as an important regulator in Amb a 1-induced expression of IL-5 and IL-13 via a PLCγ/p70S6K/JNK/ATF-2 pathway in BEAS-2B cells.

Leptin increases TNF-α expression and production through phospholipase D1 in Raw 264.7 cells. PLoS One 2014; 9:e102373.

Abstract
Epidemiological evidence suggests that obesity is associated with inflammation of the respiratory tract and the pathogenesis of asthma. The purpose of this study was to examine the role of phospholipase D1 (PLD1) in leptin-induced expression of the proinflammatory cytokine, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and to suggest a molecular link between obesity and respiratory tract inflammation. We investigated whether leptin, a typical adipocytokine, plays a role in the expression of TNF-α through increased PLD1 activity in Raw 264.7. Leptin enhanced the activity of PLD1 through activation of PLCγ and Src, while PLD1 siRNA decreased the leptin-induced expression and production of TNF-α. Leptin-induced PLD activation was also inhibited by a PLCγ inhibitor (PAO) and Src kinase inhibitor (PP2), indicating that PLCγ and Src kinase are upstream activators of PLD1. Down-regulation of PLD1 also completely blocked activation of p70S6K, an activator of JNK. Leptin-induced expression of TNF-α was also prevented by inhibition of p70S6K and JNK. Taken together, these results indicate that PLD1 acts as an important regulator of leptin-induced expression of TNF-α by participating in the PLCγ/Src/PLD1/PA/p70S6K/JNK pathway.

Abstract
We studied the possible role of phospholipase D1 (PLD1) in the neuronal differentiation, including neurite formation of neural stem cells. PLD1 protein and PLD activity increased during neuronal differentiation. Bcl-2 also increased. Downregulation of PLD1 by transfection with PLD1 siRNA or a dominant-negative form of PLD1 (DN-PLD1) inhibited both neurite outgrowth and Bcl-2 expression. PLD activity was dramatically reduced by a PLCγ (phospholipase Cγ) inhibitor (U73122), a Ca(2+)chelator (BAPTA-AM), and a PKCα (protein kinase Cα) inhibitor (RO320432). Furthermore, treatment with arachidonic acid (AA) which is generated by the action of PLA2 (phospholipase A2) on phosphatidic acid (a PLD1 product), increased the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and CREB, as well as Bcl-2 expression, indicating that PLA2 is involved in the differentiation process resulting from PLD1 activation. PGE2 (prostaglandin E2), a cyclooxygenase product of AA, also increased during neuronal differentiation. Moreover, treatment with PGE2 increased the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and CREB, as well as Bcl-2 expression, and this effect was inhibited by a PKA inhibitor (Rp-cAMP). As expected, inhibition of p38 MAPK resulted in loss of CREB activity, and when CREB activity was blocked with CREB siRNA, Bcl-2 production also decreased. We also showed that the EP4 receptor was required for the PKA/p38MAPK/CREB/Bcl-2 pathway. Taken together, these observations indicate that PLD1 is activated by PLCγ/PKCα signaling and stimulate Bcl-2 expression through PLA2/Cox2/EP4/PKA/p38MAPK/CREB during neuronal differentiation of rat neural stem cells.

Abstract
Lymphocyte recruitment is regulated by signaling modules based on the activity of Rho and Rap small guanosine triphosphatases that control integrin activation by chemokines. We show that Janus kinase (JAK) protein tyrosine kinases control chemokine-induced LFA-1- and VLA-4-mediated adhesion as well as human T lymphocyte homing to secondary lymphoid organs. JAK2 and JAK3 isoforms, but not JAK1, mediate CXCL12-induced LFA-1 triggering to a high affinity state. Signal transduction analysis showed that chemokine-induced activation of the Rho module of LFA-1 affinity triggering is dependent on JAK activity, with VAV1 mediating Rho activation by JAKs in a Gαi-independent manner. Furthermore, activation of Rap1A by chemokines is also dependent on JAK2 and JAK3 activity. Importantly, activation of Rap1A by JAKs is mediated by RhoA and PLD1, thus establishing Rap1A as a downstream effector of the Rho module. Thus, JAK tyrosine kinases control integrin activation and dependent lymphocyte trafficking by bridging chemokine receptors to the concurrent and hierarchical activation of the Rho and Rap modules of integrin activation.

Abstract
Neurons have characteristic dendritic arborization patterns that contribute to information processing. One essential component of dendritic arborization is the formation of a specific number of branches. Although intracellular pathways promoting dendritic growth and branching are being elucidated, the mechanisms that negatively regulate the branching of dendrites remain enigmatic. In this study, using gain-of-function and loss-of-function studies, we show that phospholipase D1 (PLD1) acts as a negative regulator of dendritic branching in cultured hippocampal neurons from embryonic day 18 rat embryos. Overexpression of wild-type PLD1 (WT-PLD1) decreases the complexity of dendrites, whereas knockdown or inhibition of PLD1 increases dendritic branching. We further demonstrated that PLD1 acts downstream of RhoA, one of the small Rho GTPases, to suppress dendritic branching. The restriction of dendritic branching by constitutively active RhoA (V14-RhoA) can be partially rescued by knockdown of PLD1. Moreover, the inhibition of dendritic branching by V14-RhoA and WT-PLD1 can be partially ameliorated by reducing the level of phosphatidic acid (PA), which is the enzymatic product of PLD1. Together, these results suggest that RhoA-PLD1-PA may represent a novel signaling pathway in the restriction of dendritic branching and may thus provide insight into the mechanisms of dendritic morphogenesis.

Abstract
The role of phospholipase D (PLD) in cytoskeletal reorganization, ERK activation, and migration is well established. Both isoforms of PLD (PLD1 and PLD2) can independently activate stress fiber formation and increase ERK phosphorylation. However, the isoform's specificity, upstream activators, and downstream targets of PLD that coordinate this process are less well understood. This study explores the role of α(1) -adrenergic receptor stimulation and its effect on PLD activity. We demonstrate that PLD1 activators, RhoA, and PKCα are critical for stress fiber formation and ERK activation, and enhance the production of phosphatidic acid (PA) upon phenylephrine addition. Ectopic expression of dominant negative PLD1 and not PLD2 blocks ERK activation, inhibits stress fiber formation, and reduces cell motility in CCL39 fibroblasts. Furthermore, we demonstrate the mechanism for PLD1 activation of ERK involves Ras. This work indicates that PLD1 plays a novel role mediating growth factor and cell motility events in α(1) -adrenergic receptor-activated cells.

Abstract
The signaling transduction processes involved in avulsion-induced motoneuron (MN) death have not been elucidated. Using the brachial plexus root avulsion rat model, we showed that avulsion-activated phosphorylation of phospholipase-Cγ (PLCγ) and protein kinase C (PKC) occurred in injured spinal MNs within 72 h of injury. Moreover, some MNs positive for PLCγ and PKC are also positive for avulsion-induced neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). Inhibition of PLCγ/PKC signal pathway, either with PLCγ inhibitor, 1-[6-((17β-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-yl) amino)hexyl]-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione, or with PLCγ siRNA augmented avulsion-induced MN death. 1-[6-((17β-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-yl) amino)hexyl]-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione also inhibited PKC phosphorylation and exacerbated avulsion-induced reductions in the nNOS protein level in injured spinal segments. Moreover, activation of PLCγ/PKC signal pathway with PKC activator, phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate, decreased avulsion-induced MN death. The temporal profile of PLCγ/PKC signaling appears to be crucial for the survival of spinal MNs after root avulsion. Our data suggest that PLCγ mediates, while PKC and nNOS are associated with, the avulsion-induced MN death in brachial plexus root avulsion.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the role of PLD (phospholipase D) in bFGF (basic fibroblast growth factor)-induced Bcl-2 expression and to examine whether overexpressed Bcl-2 influences neurite outgrowth in immortalized hippocampal progenitor cells (H19-7 cells). We found that Bcl-2 expression was maximally induced by bFGF within 24 h, and that this effect was reduced by inhibiting PLD1 expression with PLD1 small interfering RNA or by overexpressing DN (dominant-negative)-PLD1, whereas PLD1 overexpression markedly induced Bcl-2 expression. bFGF treatment activated Ras, Src, PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase), PLCγ (phospholipase Cγ) and PKCα (protein kinase Cα). Among these molecules, Src and PKCα were not required for Bcl-2 expression. PLD activity was decreased by Ras, PI3K or PLCγ inhibitor, suggesting that PLD1 activation occurred through Ras, PI3K or PLCγ. We found that Ras was the most upstream molecule among these proteins, followed by the PI3K/PLCγ pathway, indicating that bFGF-induced PLD activation took place through the Ras/PI3K/PLCγ pathway. Furthermore, PLD1 was required for activation of JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase), which led to activation of STAT3 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 3) and finally Bcl-2 expression. When Bcl-2 was overexpressed, neurite outgrowth was stimulated along with induction of neurotrophic factors such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophin 4/5. In conclusion, PLD1 acts as a downstream effector of bFGF/Ras/PI3K/PLCγ signalling and regulates Bcl-2 expression through JNK/STAT3, which leads to neurite outgrowth in H19-7 cells.

Abstract
Background We have recently demonstrated that modulation of the gap junction protein, connexin43, can affect the response of osteoblasts to fibroblast growth factor 2 in a protein kinase C-delta-dependent manner. Others have shown that the C-terminal tail of connexin43 serves as a docking platform for signaling complexes. It is unknown whether protein kinase C-delta can physically interact with connexin43. Results In the present study, we investigate by immunofluorescent co-detection and biochemical examination the interaction between Cx43 and protein kinase C-delta. We establish that protein kinase C-delta physically interacts with connexin43 during fibroblast growth factor 2 signaling, and that protein kinase C delta preferentially co-precipitates phosphorylated connexin43. Further, we show by pull down assay that protein kinase C-delta associates with the C-terminal tail of connexin43. Conclusions Connexin43 can serve as a direct docking platform for the recruitment of protein kinase C-delta in order to affect fibroblast growth factor 2 signaling in osteoblasts. These data expand the list of signal molecules that assemble on the connexin43 C-terminal tail and provide a critical context to understand how gap junctions modify signal transduction cascades in order to impact cell function.

Abstract
Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) exerts multiple neurotrophic actions on cultured neurons from the ciliary ganglion of chick embryo, among them promotion of neuronal survival and of neurite outgrowth. To understand the specificity of the signal transduction cascades involved in the control of these processes, we used pharmacological inhibitors of the three main effectors known to act downstream of the bFGF receptor (FGFR): phospholipase Cgamma (PLCgamma), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K). Neuronal survival was assessed at 24 and 48 hr; neurite growth was analyzed both on dissociated neurons and on explants of whole ganglia. Our data show that only the PI3-K pathway is involved in the survival-promoting effect of bFGF; on the other hand, all three effectors converge on the enhancement of neurite outgrowth, both on isolated neurons and in whole ganglia.

Abstract
The lipid raft location of mu-opioid receptor (MOR) determines the receptor activities. However, the manner in which MOR is anchored within the lipid rafts is undetermined. Using the targeted proteomic approach and mass spectrometry analyses, we have identified GRIN1 (G protein-regulated inducer of neurite outgrowth 1) can tether MOR with the G protein alpha-subunit and subsequently regulate the receptor distribution within the lipid rafts. Glutathione S-transferase fusion pulldown and receptor mutational analyses indicate that GRIN1-MOR interaction involves a receptor sequence (267)GSKEK(271) within the MOR third intracellular loop that is not involved in Galpha interaction. The GRIN1 domains involved in MOR interaction are also distinct from those involved in Galpha interaction. Pertussis toxin pretreatment reduced the amount of GRIN1 co-immunoprecipitated with MOR but not the amount with Galpha. Furthermore, overexpression of GRIN1 significantly enhanced the amount of MOR in lipid raft and the receptor signaling magnitude as measured by Src kinase activation. Such increase in MOR signaling was demonstrated further by determining the GRIN1-dependent pertussis toxin-sensitive neurite outgrowth. In contrast to minimal neurite outgrowth induced by etorphine in control neuroblastoma N2A cells, overexpression of GRIN1 resulted in the increase in etorphine- and non-morphine-induced neurite outgrowth in these cells. Knocking down endogenous GRIN1 by small interfering RNA attenuated the agonist-induced neurite outgrowth. Disrupting lipid raft by methyl-beta-cyclodextrin also blocked neurite outgrowth. Hence, by tethering Galpha with MOR, GRIN1 stabilizes the receptor within the lipid rafts and potentiates the receptor signaling in the neurite outgrowth processes.

In this study, we examine the role of the gap junction protein, connexin43 (Cx43), in the transcriptional response of osteocalcin to fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) in MC3T3 osteoblasts. By luciferase reporter assays, we identify that the osteocalcin transcriptional response to FGF2 is markedly increased by overexpression of Cx43, an effect that is mediated by Runx2 via its OSE2 cognate element, but not by a previously identified connexin-responsive Sp1/Sp3-binding element. Furthermore, disruption of Cx43 function with Cx43 siRNAs or overexpression of connexin45 markedly attenuates the response to FGF2. Inhibition of protein kinase C delta (PKCdelta) with rottlerin or siRNA-mediated knockdown abrogates the osteocalcin response to FGF2. Additionally, we show that upon treatment with FGF2, PKCdelta translocates to the nucleus, PKCdelta and Runx2 are phosphorylated and these events are enhanced by Cx43 overexpression, suggesting that the degree of activation is enhanced by increased Cx43 levels. Indeed, chromatin immunoprecipitations of the osteocalcin proximal promoter with antibodies against Runx2 demonstrate that the recruitment of Runx2 to the osteocalcin promoter in response to FGF2 treatment is dramatically enhanced by Cx43 overexpression. Thus, Cx43 plays a critical role in regulating the ability of osteoblasts to respond to FGF2 by impacting PKCdelta and Runx2 function.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify the role of phospholipase D1 (PLD1) in Der f 2-induced interleukin (IL)-13 production. The major house dust mite allergen, Der f 2, increased PLD activity in human bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2B), and dominant negative PLD1 or PLD1 siRNA decreased Der f 2-induced IL-13 expression and production. Treatment of Der f 2 activated the phospholipase Cgamma (PLCgamma)/protein kinase Calpha (PKCalpha)/p38 MAPK pathway. Der f 2-induced PLD activation was attenuated by PLCgamma inhibitors (U73122 and PAO), PKCalpha inhibitors (RO320432 and GO6976), and p38 MAPK inhibitors (SB203580 and SB202190). These results indicate that PLCgamma, PKCalpha, and p38 MAPK act as upstream activators of PLD in Der f 2-treated BEAS-2B cells. Furthermore, expression and production of IL-13 increased by Der f 2 were also blocked by inhibition of PLCgamma, PKCalpha, or p38 MAPK, indicating that IL-13 expression and production are related to a PLCgamma/PKCalpha/p38 MAPK pathway. We found that activating transcription factor-2 (ATF-2) was activated by Der f 2 in BEAS-2B cells and activation of ATF-2 was controlled by PLD1. When ATF-2 activity was blocked with ATF-2 siRNA, Der f 2-induced IL-13 expression and production were decreased. Thus, ATF-2 might be one of the transcriptional factors for the expression of IL-13 in Der f 2-treated BEAS-2B cells. Taken together, PLD1 acts as an important regulator in Der f 2-induced expression and production of IL-13 through activation of ATF-2 in BEAS-2B cells.
