Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions induced by small molecule drugs encompass a broad spectrum of adverse drug reactions with heterogeneous clinical presentations and mechanisms. These reactions are classified into allergic drug hypersensitivity reactions and non-allergic drug hypersensitivity reactions. At present, the hapten theory, pharmacological interaction with immune receptors (p-i) concept, altered peptide repertoire model, and altered T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire model have been proposed to explain how small molecule drugs or their metabolites induce allergic drug hypersensitivity reactions. Meanwhile, direct activation of mast cells, provoking the complement system, stimulating or inhibiting inflammatory reaction-related enzymes, accumulating bradykinin, and/or triggering vascular hyperpermeability are considered as the main factors causing non-allergic drug hypersensitivity reactions. To date, many investigations have been performed to explore the underlying mechanisms involved in drug hypersensitivity reactions and to search for predictive and preventive methods in both clinical and non-clinical trials. However, validated methods for predicting and diagnosing hypersensitivity reactions to small molecule drugs and deeper insight into the relevant underlying mechanisms are still limited.

Abstract
Angioedema (AE) is a condition that is frequently encountered in the emergency department (ED). It is a rare condition with localized, asymmetrical swelling of the skin and/or mucosa that is frequently nonpruritic and primarily affects locations with loose connective tissue. Physicians must have a thorough understanding of this condition since it can cause fatal airway compromise, which might be the presenting symptom. Histamine-mediated AE is the most common type of AE seen in EDs. However, ED physicians must be on the lookout for the less common bradykinin-mediated types of AE as these do not respond to the same therapy as histamine-mediated AE. Hospitals may lack specialized drugs or protocols, and many ED staff may be unable to identify or treat bradykinin-mediated AE. It is crucial to understand the pathophysiology of the various kinds of AE in order to optimize treatment. The goal of this review paper is to provide an overview of the pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and treatment options for bradykinin and histamine-induced AE in the ED.

Abstract
Phospholipases are lipolytic enzymes that hydrolyze phospholipid substrates at specific ester bonds. Phospholipases are widespread in nature and play very diverse roles from aggression in snake venom to signal transduction, lipid mediator production, and metabolite digestion in humans. Phospholipases vary considerably in structure, function, regulation, and mode of action. Tremendous advances in understanding the structure and function of phospholipases have occurred in the last decades. This introductory chapter is aimed at providing a general framework of the current understanding of phospholipases and a discussion of their mechanisms of action and emerging biological functions.

Abstract
Phospholipases are widely occurring and can be found in several different organisms, including bacteria, yeast, plants, animals, and viruses. Phospholipase C (PLC) is a class of phospholipases that cleaves phospholipids on the diacylglycerol (DAG) side of the phosphodiester bond producing DAGs and phosphomonoesters. Among PLCs, phosphoinositide-specific PLC (PI-PLC) constitutes an important step in the inositide signaling pathways. The structures of PI-PLC isozymes show conserved domains as well as regulatory specific domains. This is important, as most PI-PLCs share a common mechanism, but each of them has a peculiar role and can have a specific cell distribution that is linked to a specific function. More importantly, the regulation of PLC isozymes is fundamental in health and disease, as there are several PLC-dependent molecular mechanisms that are associated with the activation or inhibition of important physiopathological processes. Moreover, PI-PLC alternative splicing variants can play important roles in complex signaling networks, not only in cancer but also in other diseases. That is why PI-PLC isozymes are now considered as important molecules that are essential for better understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying both physiology and pathogenesis, and are also potential molecular targets useful for the development of innovative therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
The amount of Na(+) and K(+) in the diet promotes significant changes in endothelial cell function. In the present study, a series of in vitro and in vivo experiments determined the role of Na(+) and K(+) in the regulation of two pleckstrin homology domain-containing intracellular signaling molecules, phospholipase C (PLC)-γ1 and epithelial and endothelial tyrosine kinase/bone marrow tyrosine kinase on chromosome X (Bmx), and agonist-generated Ca(2+) signaling in the endothelium. Extracellular K(+) concentration regulated the levels of activated PLC-γ1, Bmx, and carbachol-stimulated intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization in human endothelial cells. Additional experiments confirmed that high-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase mediated these effects. The content of Na(+) and K(+) in the diet also regulated Bmx levels in endothelial cells and activated PLC-γ1 levels in rats in vivo. The effects of dietary K(+) on Bmx were more pronounced in rats fed a high-salt diet compared with rats fed a low-salt diet. These experiments elucidated an endothelial cell signaling mechanism regulated by electrolytes, further demonstrating an integral relationship between endothelial cell function and dietary Na(+) and K(+) content.

Abstract
Acute ischemic stroke and traumatic brain injury are a major cause of mortality and morbidity. Due to the paucity of therapies, there is a pressing clinical demand for new treatment options. Successful therapeutic strategies for these conditions must target multiple pathophysiological mechanisms occurring at different stages of brain injury. In this respect, the kallikrein-kinin system is an ideal target linking key pathological hallmarks of ischemic and traumatic brain damage such as edema formation, inflammation, and thrombosis. In particular, the kinin receptors, plasma kallikrein, and coagulation factor XIIa are highly attractive candidates for pharmacological development, as kinin receptor antagonists or inhibitors of plasma kallikrein and coagulation factor XIIa are neuroprotective in animal models of stroke and traumatic brain injury. Nevertheless, conflicting preclinical evaluation as well as limited and inconclusive data from clinical trials suggest caution when transferring observations made in animals into the human situation. This review summarizes current evidence on the pathological significance of the kallikrein-kinin system during ischemic and traumatic brain damage, with a particular focus on experimental data derived from animal models. Experimental findings are also compared with human data if available, and potential therapeutic implications are discussed.

Abstract
A monolayer of endothelial cells (ECs) lines the lumen of blood vessels and forms a multifunctional transducing organ that mediates a plethora of cardiovascular processes. The activation of ECs from as state of quiescence is, therefore, regarded among the early events leading to the onset and progression of potentially lethal diseases, such as hypertension, myocardial infarction, brain stroke, and tumor. Intracellular Ca2+ signals have long been know to play a central role in the complex network of signaling pathways regulating the endothelial functions. Notably, recent work has outlined how any change in the pattern of expression of endothelial channels, transporters and pumps involved in the modulation of intracellular Ca2+ levels may dramatically affect whole body homeostasis. Vascular ECs may react to both mechanical and chemical stimuli by generating a variety of intracellular Ca2+ signals, ranging from brief, localized Ca2+ pulses to prolonged Ca2+ oscillations engulfing the whole cytoplasm. The well-defined spatiotemporal profile of the subcellular Ca2+ signals elicited in ECs by specific extracellular inputs depends on the interaction between Ca2+ releasing channels, which are located both on the plasma membrane and in a number of intracellular organelles, and Ca2+ removing systems. The present article aims to summarize both the past and recent literature in the field to provide a clear-cut picture of our current knowledge on the molecular nature and the role played by the components of the Ca2+ machinery in vascular ECs under both physiological and pathological conditions.

Abstract
The physiological effects of many extracellular neurotransmitters, hormones, growth factors, and other stimuli are mediated by receptor-promoted activation of phospholipase C (PLC) and consequential activation of inositol lipid signaling pathways. These signaling responses include the classically described conversion of phosphatidylinositol(4,5)P(2) to the Ca(2+)-mobilizing second messenger inositol(1,4,5)P(3) and the protein kinase C-activating second messenger diacylglycerol as well as alterations in membrane association or activity of many proteins that harbor phosphoinositide binding domains. The 13 mammalian PLCs elaborate a minimal catalytic core typified by PLC-d to confer multiple modes of regulation of lipase activity. PLC-b isozymes are activated by Gaq- and Gbg-subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins, and activation of PLC-g isozymes occurs through phosphorylation promoted by receptor and non-receptor tyrosine kinases. PLC-e and certain members of the PLC-b and PLC-g subclasses of isozymes are activated by direct binding of small G proteins of the Ras, Rho, and Rac subfamilies of GTPases. Recent high resolution three dimensional structures together with biochemical studies have illustrated that the X/Y linker region of the catalytic core mediates autoinhibition of most if not all PLC isozymes. Activation occurs as a consequence of removal of this autoinhibition.

Abstract
Since kallikrein was discovered as a vasodilatory substance in human urine, the kallikrein-kinin system (KKS) has been considered to play a physiological role in controlling blood pressure. Gene targeting experiments in mice in which the KKS has been inactivated to varying degrees have, however, questioned this role, because basal blood pressures are not altered. Rather, these experiments have shown that the KKS has a different and important role in preventing changes associated with normal senescence in mice, and in reducing the nephropathy and accelerated senescence-associated phenotypes induced in mice by diabetes. Other experiments have shown that the KKS suppresses mitochondrial respiration, partly by nitric oxide and prostaglandins, and that this suppression may be a key to understanding how the KKS influences senescence-related diseases. Here we review the logical progression and experimental data leading to these conclusions, and discuss their relevance to human conditions.

Abstract
Angioedema is an underestimated clinical problem. Many cases are nonallergic reactions, e.g. bradykinin-induced angioedema caused by genetic defects and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. This difference is crucial for successful therapy, in particular when complete emergency care is not available. Five important forms of nonallergic angioedema can be distinguished: hereditary (HAE), acquired (AAE), renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS)-blocker-induced (RAE), pseudoallergic angioedema (PAE) and idiopathic angioedema (IAE). Some angioedema are present in the larynx and may cause death. A vast majority of nonallergic angioedema are RAE, particularly those caused by ACE inhibitors. It appears important to emphasize that in patients with complete intolerance to RAAS-blockers, cessation of RAAS-blockers is likely to be associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Currently, there is no published algorithm for diagnosis and treatment. Angioedema is usually treated by a conservative clinical approach using artificial ventilation, glucocorticoids and antihistamines. Today, a plasma pool C1-esterase inhibitor (C1-INH) concentrate is the therapy of choice in HAE. The current pharmacotherapy of nonallergic angioedema is not satisfactory, thus requiring the identification of effective agents in clinical trials. Recently, several new drugs were developed: a recombinant C1-INH, a kallikrein inhibitor (ecallantide) and a specific bradykinin-B2-receptor antagonist (icatibant). According to currently available reports, these drugs may improve the treatment of kinin-induced angioedema.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) proteins form plasma-membrane cation channels that act as sensors for diverse cellular stimuli. Here, we report a novel activation mechanism mediated by cysteine S-nitrosylation in TRP channels. Recombinant TRPC1, TRPC4, TRPC5, TRPV1, TRPV3 and TRPV4 of the TRPC and TRPV families, which are commonly classified as receptor-activated channels and thermosensor channels, induce entry of Ca(2+) into cells in response to nitric oxide (NO). Labeling and functional assays using cysteine mutants, together with membrane sidedness in activating reactive disulfides, show that cytoplasmically accessible Cys553 and nearby Cys558 are nitrosylation sites mediating NO sensitivity in TRPC5. The responsive TRP proteins have conserved cysteines on the same N-terminal side of the pore region. Notably, nitrosylation of native TRPC5 upon G protein-coupled ATP receptor stimulation elicits entry of Ca(2+) into endothelial cells. These findings reveal the structural motif for the NO-sensitive activation gate in TRP channels and indicate that NO sensors are a new functional category of cellular receptors extending over different TRP families.

Abstract
The cortical thick ascending limb (CTAL) coexpresses angiotensin (Ang) II/Ang III receptor type 1A (AT(1A)-R) and bradykinin (BK) receptor type 2 (B2-R). In several cell types, these two receptors share the same signaling pathways, although their physiological functions are often opposite. In CTAL, little is known about the intracellular transduction events leading to the final physiological response induced by these two peptides. We investigated and compared in this segment the action of Ang II/III and BK on intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) response and metabolic CO2 production, an index of Na+ transport, by using inhibitors of protein kinase C (bisindolylmaleimide), Src tyrosine kinase (herbimycin A and PP2), and MAPK/ERK (PD98059 and UO126). Ang II/III and BK (10(-7) mol/liter) released Ca2+ from the same intracellular pools but activated different Ca2+ entry pathways. Ang II/III- or BK-induced [Ca2+]i increases were similarly potentiated by bisindolylmaleimide. Herbimycin A and PP2 decreased similarly the [Ca2+]i responses induced by Ang II/III and BK. In contrast, PD98059 and UO126 affected the effects of BK to a larger extent than those of Ang II/III. Especially, the Ca2+ influx induced by BK was more strongly inhibited than that induced by Ang II/III in the presence of both compounds. The Na+ transport was inhibited by BK and stimulated by Ang II/III. The inhibitory action of BK on Na+ transport was blocked by UO126, whereas the stimulatory response of Ang II/III was potentiated by UO126 but blocked by bisindolylmaleimide. These data suggest that the inhibitory effect of BK on Na+ transport seems to be directly mediated by an increase in Ca2+ influx dependent on MAPK/ERK pathway activation. In contrast, the stimulatory effect of Ang II/III on Na+ transport is more complex and involves PKC and MAPK/ERK pathways.

Abstract
The endothelial nitric-oxide synthase (eNOS) is regulated in part by serine/threonine phosphorylation, but eNOS tyrosine phosphorylation is less well understood. In the present study we have examined the tyrosine phosphorylation of eNOS in bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) exposed to oxidant stress. Hydrogen peroxide and pervanadate (PV) treatment stimulates eNOS tyrosine phosphorylation in BAECs. Phosphorylation is blocked by the Src kinase family inhibitor, 4-amino-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-7-(t-butyl)pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine (PP2). Moreover, eNOS and c-Src can be coimmunoprecipitated from BAEC lysates by antibodies directed against either protein. Domain mapping and site-directed mutagenesis studies in COS-7 cells transfected with either eNOS alone and then treated with PV or cotransfected with eNOS and constitutively active v-Src identified Tyr-83 (bovine sequence) as the major eNOS tyrosine phosphorylation site. Tyr-83 phosphorylation is associated with a 3-fold increase in basal NO release from cotransfected cells. Furthermore, the Y83F eNOS mutation attenuated thapsigargin-stimulated NO production. Taken together, these data indicate that Src-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of eNOS at Tyr-83 modulates eNOS activity in endothelial cells.

Abstract
Kinins are proinflammatory peptides that mediate numerous vascular and pain responses to tissue injury. Two pharmacologically distinct kinin receptor subtypes have been identified and characterized for these peptides, which are named B1 and B2 and belong to the rhodopsin family of G protein-coupled receptors. The B2 receptor mediates the action of bradykinin (BK) and lysyl-bradykinin (Lys-BK), the first set of bioactive kinins formed in response to injury from kininogen precursors through the actions of plasma and tissue kallikreins, whereas the B(1) receptor mediates the action of des-Arg9-BK and Lys-des-Arg9-BK, the second set of bioactive kinins formed through the actions of carboxypeptidases on BK and Lys-BK, respectively. The B2 receptor is ubiquitous and constitutively expressed, whereas the B1 receptor is expressed at a very low level in healthy tissues but induced following injury by various proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1beta. Both receptors act through G alpha(q) to stimulate phospholipase C beta followed by phosphoinositide hydrolysis and intracellular free Ca2+ mobilization and through G alpha(i) to inhibit adenylate cyclase and stimulate the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways. The use of mice lacking each receptor gene and various specific peptidic and nonpeptidic antagonists have implicated both B1 and B2 receptors as potential therapeutic targets in several pathophysiological events related to inflammation such as pain, sepsis, allergic asthma, rhinitis, and edema, as well as diabetes and cancer. This review is a comprehensive presentation of our current understanding of these receptors in terms of molecular and cell biology, physiology, pharmacology, and involvement in human disease and drug development.

Abstract
Despite the recognized physiological role of bradykinin (BK) in the kidney in maintaining glomerular and tubule function and its role in pathological states such as endotoxemia, diabetes, and other diseases, relatively little is known about the mechanisms by which BK can impact kidney function. Furthermore, the signaling of BK receptors in the murine nephron has not been fully characterized. The present studies were undertaken to examine BK-stimulated Ca(2+) signaling using Fura-2 in the murine proximal tubule epithelial cell line TKPTS. BK produced a concentration-dependent rise in intracellular Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)])(i) (pEC(50) = 8.39 +/- 0.04). Selective antagonists showed the rise in [Ca(2+)](i) was mediated through B2 receptors. The rise in [Ca(2+)](i) was rapid and reversible and was maximally stimulated at 1 microM (697 +/- 70 nM above basal level of 115 +/- 6 nM). Studies with thapsigargin and EGTA showed Ca(2+) mobilization was dependent on two events: release and influx. Both U73122 (1-[6-[[17-beta-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-yl]amino]hexyl]-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione) [a phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor] and genistein (a tyrosine kinase inhibitor) partially inhibited BK-stimulated rise in [Ca(2+)](i). When combined, both agents produced a further decrease, suggesting multiple pathways for PLC activation may be involved. The ability of Ni(2+) to inhibit influx indicated the activation of a Ca(2+) release-activated channel (CRAC). Ca(2+) mobilization did not seem to be affected by cyclic nucleotides or protein kinase C. In summary, the TKPTS murine proximal tubule cell line expresses functional B2 receptors linked to Ca(2+) mobilization that is dependent on phospholipase C and activation of CRAC.

Abstract
Recently, we have described a novel protein-protein interaction between the G-protein coupled bradykinin B2 receptor and tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 via an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM) sequence located in the C-terminal part of the B2 receptor and the Src homology (SH2) domains of SHP-2. Here we show that phospholipase C (PLC)gamma1, another SH2 domain containing protein, can also interact with this ITIM sequence. Using surface plasmon resonance analysis, we observed that PLCgamma1 interacted with a peptide containing the phosphorylated form of the bradykinin B2 receptor ITIM sequence. In CHO cells expressing the wild-type B2 receptor, bradykinin-induced transient recruitment and activation of PLCgamma1. Interestingly, this interaction was only observed in quiescent and not in proliferating cells. Mutation of the key ITIM residue abolished this interaction with and activation of PLCgamma1. Finally we also identified bradykinin-induced PLCgamma1 recruitment and activation in primary culture renal mesangial cells.

Abstract
In ElasCCK2 transgenic mice expressing cholecystokinin (CCK2) receptor in acinar cells, pancreatic phenotypic alterations and preneoplastic lesions are observed. We determined whether activation of phospholipase C gamma1 (PLCgamma1), known to contribute to the tumorigenesis pathophysiology, could take place as a new signaling pathway induced by the CCK2 receptor. Overexpression and activation of the PLCgamma1 in response to gastrin was observed in acinar cells. The possibility that the C-terminal tyrosine 438 of the CCK2 receptor associates with the SH2 domains of PLCgamma1 was examined. A specific interaction was demonstrated using surface plasmon resonance, confirmed in a cellular system and by molecular modeling.

Abstract
Sustained activation of G protein-coupled receptors results in an attenuation of cellular responses, a phenomenon termed desensitization. Whereas mechanisms for rapid desensitization of ligand-receptor-G protein-effector systems are relatively well characterized, much less is known about long-term adaptation processes that occur in the continuous presence of an agonist. Here we have studied the fate of endogenously expressed bradykinin B(2) receptors on human fibroblasts during prolonged agonist treatment. Stimulation with bradykinin for up to 24 h resulted in a 50% reduction of surface binding sites that was paralleled by a similar decrease of total B(2) receptor protein followed by Western blotting using monoclonal antibodies to the B(2) receptor. Whereas B(2) receptor mRNA levels did not change during 24 h of agonist treatment, B(2) receptor de novo synthesis was attenuated by 35-50%, indicating translational control of B(2) receptor levels. Furthermore, the half-life of B(2) receptor protein was shortened by 20-40% as shown by (35)S-labeled pulse-chase and immunoprecipitation experiments. This study demonstrates that bradykinin B(2) receptor expression during long-term agonist treatment is primarily regulated on the (post)translational level, i.e., by attenuation of de novo synthesis and by reduction of receptor stability.

Abstract
Kinins are peptide hormones that transmit their biological effects via G protein-coupled receptors. They are generated by kallikrein-mediated proteolysis of their precursors, the kininogens. Kinins have been implicated in the regulation of blood pressure, pain sensation and cell growth. Interestingly, all components of the kallikrein-kinin system have also been localized in testis. Effects of kallikrein and bradykinin on pre-spermatogonial cell proliferation and on sperm motility suggest a regulatory function of kinins and their cognate receptors in the male reproductive system. This review is dedicated to summarize the current knowledge about structure, signal transduction and regulation of kinin receptors. Particular emphasis will be given to the kinin-induced activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade which might represent an important signalling pathway involved in regulation of spermatogenesis and sperm function.

Abstract
Most frequently, the physiologic functions of the angiotensin II (Ang II) type 1 receptor (AT1R) and bradykinin B2 receptor (BKB2R) are antagonistic, particularly with respect to the regulation of vascular tone. Despite major differences in their physiologic actions, the receptors share sequence similarities. Both link to Galpha(i) and Galpha(q) and transduce very similar signal paths, not only those relating to the traditional G-protein associated second messengers, but also those involved in transactivation mechanisms involving receptor tyrosine kinases. With respect to these paths, some differences in signaling may be accounted for by cell type specificity. However, alternative signal cascades for these two receptors are becoming increasingly evident. One such is the recruitment of signaling molecules upon receptor translocation and internalization. The AT1R translocates into clathrin-coated pits and internalizes upon recruitment of beta-arrestin 2 which then recruits ASK1 and JNK3. The BKB2R translocates and internalizes mainly via caveolae. Another signaling divergence may be due to the direct activation of small G-proteins by both receptors. AT1R activates the RhoA, Rac1, Cdc42 while BKB2R couples only with Rac1 and Cdc42. Both receptors may serve as docking stations for intracellular proteins. One such example is the YIPP motif within the C-terminus of the ATIR which associates with the JAK/STAT pathway. Another potential alternative is the activation of tyrosine/serine kinase phosphatases by BK. This mechanism may directly oppose some of the protein tyrosine/ serine kinase paths activated by AT1R. These alternative mechanisms in sum are potentially responsible for the diversion in signal transduction between these two receptors. Regardless of the route of action, our results suggest that in Rat-1 fibroblasts stably transfected with BKB2R, BK slightly decreases connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) mRNA level while in ATIR transfected cells Ang II increases CTGF mRNA markedly. To determine whether mutant hybrids can be formed between these two receptors which encompass some of the function of the donor receptor but bind the ligand of the recipient receptor, a series of hybrids were formed with BKB2R the recipient and AT1R the donor receptor. Some of these hybrids show resistance to exchanges with the AT1R and form receptors which either do not bind (IC1 exchanges) or demonstrate poor function but normal internalization (proximal C-terminus exchanges). However, other hybrids have proven very functional. For example, the IC2, IC3 and distal C-terminus of the BKB2R IC face can be replaced simultaneously with the AT1R resulting in an hybrid which binds BK, continues to signal, is internalized and resensitized. Formation of this and other less extensive hybrids is discussed. Some of these hybrids possess the capacity to function as the AT1R as exemplified by their ability to upregulate CTGF expression as wild-type (WT) AT1R.

Abstract
We report here that PLC-gamma isoforms are required for agonist-induced Ca2+ entry (ACE). Overexpressed wild-type PLC-gamma1 or a lipase-inactive mutant PLC-gamma1 each augmented ACE in PC12 cells, while a deletion mutant lacking the region containing the SH3 domain of PLC-gamma1 was ineffective. RNA interference to deplete either PLC-gamma1 or PLC-gamma2 in PC12 and A7r5 cells inhibited ACE. In DT40 B lymphocytes expressing only PLC-gamma2, overexpressed muscarinic M5 receptors (M5R) activated ACE. Using DT40 PLC-gamma2 knockout cells, M5R stimulation of ER Ca2+ store release was unaffected, but ACE was abolished. Normal ACE was restored by transient expression of PLC-gamma2 or a lipase-inactive PLC-gamma2 mutant. The results indicate a lipase-independent role of PLC-gamma in the physiological agonist-induced activation of Ca2+ entry.

Abstract
Mitogenic G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling has been extensively studied. In contrast, little is known about anti-mitogenic GPCR signaling. We show here that anti-mitogenic signaling of a GPCR, the bradykinin B2 receptor, involves a novel direct protein-protein interaction. The antiproliferative effect of bradykinin was accompanied by a transient increase in protein-tyrosine phosphatase activity. Using surface plasmon resonance analysis, we observed that an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) located in the C-terminal part of the B2 receptor interacted specifically with the protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2. The interaction was confirmed in primary culture renal mesangial cells by co-immunoprecipitation of a B2 receptor.SHP-2 complex. The extent of the interaction was transiently increased by stimulation with bradykinin, which was accompanied by an increase in specific SHP-2 phosphatase activity. Mutational analysis of the key ITIM residue confirmed that the B2 receptor ITIM sequence is required for interaction with SHP-2, SHP-2 activation, and the anti-mitogenic effect of bradykinin. Finally, in mesangial cells transfected with a dominant-negative form of SHP-2, bradykinin lost the ability to inhibit cell proliferation. These observations demonstrate that bradykinin inhibits cell proliferation by a novel mechanism involving a direct protein-protein interaction between a GPCR (the B2 receptor) and SHP-2.

Abstract
Mitogen-activated protein kinases (such as Erk1/2) regulate phosphorylation of the microtubule-associated protein tau and processing of the amyloid protein beta, both events critical to the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here we report that enhanced and prolonged Erk1/2 phosphorylation in response to bradykinin (BK) was detected in fibroblasts of both familial and sporadic AD, but not age-matched controls (AC). The AD-associated abnormality in Erk1/2 phosphorylation was not seen in fibroblasts from Huntington's disease patients with dementia. The elevation of Erk1/2 phosphorylation occurred immediately after BK stimulation and required an IP3-sensitive Ca(2+) release as well as activation of PKC and c-src as upstream events. Treatment of cells with the PI-3 kinase blocker LY924002 partially inhibited the BK-stimulated Erk1/2 phosphorylation in AC, but had no effect in AD cells, suggesting that the BK-induced Erk1/2 phosphorylation in AD cells is independent of PI-3 kinase. Activation of the cAMP-responsive element binding protein (CREB) monitored as an increase in phosphorylation at Ser-133 was also observed after BK stimulation. Unlike the AD-specific differences for Erk1/2, however, the BK-stimulated CREB phosphorylation was not different between AC and AD cells. Abnormal Erk1/2 activities may alter downstream cellular processes such as gene transcription, amyloid precursor protein processing, and tau protein phosphorylation, which contribute to the pathogenesis of AD. Moreover, detection of AD-specific differences in MAP kinase in peripheral tissues may provide an efficient means for early diagnosis of AD as well as help us to identify therapeutic targets for drug discovery.

Abstract
There is increasing evidence that intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a role in cell signaling and that the NADPH oxidase is a major source of ROS in endothelial cells. At low concentrations, agonist stimulation of membrane receptors generates intracellular ROS and repetitive oscillations of intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in human endothelial cells. The present study was performed to examine whether ROS are important in the generation or maintenance of [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations in human aortic endothelial cells (HAEC) stimulated by histamine. Histamine (1 microm) increased the fluorescence of 2',7'-dihydrodichlorofluorescin diacetate in HAEC, an indicator of ROS production. This was partially inhibited by the NADPH oxidase inhibitor diphenyleneiodonium (DPI, 10 microm), by the farnesyltransferase inhibitor H-Ampamb-Phe-Met-OH (2 microm), and in HAEC transiently expressing Rac1(N17), a dominant negative allele of the protein Rac1, which is essential for NADPH oxidase activity. In indo 1-loaded HAEC, 1 microm histamine triggered [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations that were blocked by DPI or H-Ampamb-Phe-Met-OH. Histamine-stimulated [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations were not observed in HAEC lacking functional Rac1 protein but were observed when transfected cells were simultaneously exposed to a low concentration of hydrogen peroxide (10 microm), which by itself did not alter either [Ca(2+)](i) or levels of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins-1,4,5-P(3)). Thus, histamine generates ROS in HAEC at least partially via NADPH oxidase activation. NADPH oxidase-derived ROS are critical to the generation of [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations in HAEC during histamine stimulation, perhaps by increasing the sensitivity of the endoplasmic reticulum to Ins-1,4,5-P(3).

Abstract
The activation of soluble guanylate cyclase by bradykinin and sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a direct activator of soluble guanylate cyclase, was evaluated in androgen-sensitive LNCaP and androgen-independent PC3 and DU145 prostate cancer cells. Bradykinin and SNP activated soluble guanylate cyclase in LNCaP cells, but not in PC3 and DU145 cells. Western blot analysis revealed that the bradykinin B2 receptor, Gqalpha, phospholipase Cgamma and endothelial nitric oxide synthase were expressed in LNCaP, PC3 and DU145 cells. However, both Western blotting and reverse transcriptase--polymerase chain reaction indicated that soluble guanylate cyclase was only expressed in LNCaP cells. These results demonstrate that the impaired bradykinin-soluble guanylate cyclase pathway in PC3 and DU145 cells is likely due to lack of expression of soluble guanylate cyclase.

Abstract
Bradykinin (BK) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-165 stimulate vasodilatation, microvascular permeability, and angiogenesis via the activation of the B2-type and KDR/Flk-1 receptors. To delineate the signal transduction pathways distal to the receptor activation in microvascular permeability, we compared their effects on two downstream targets, i.e. endothelial nitric-oxide (NO) synthase (eNOS) and F-actin, in primary cultures of cardiac capillary endothelial cells. The two mediators induced a similar cytoskeletal reorganization and both the translocation and activation of eNOS, leading to NO release within the first minutes of cell exposure. At the same time, BK produced the tyrosine phosphorylation and internalization of KDR/Flk-1 as did VEGF itself. This transactivation was blocked by the selective inhibitor of VEGF receptor tyrosine kinase activity but not by inhibitors of epidermal growth factor receptor or protein kinase C activity. The selective inhibitor of VEGF receptor tyrosine kinase activity totally prevented the effects of VEGF but only partially inhibited NO release induced by BK without affecting the concomitant cytoskeletal reorganization. Thus, BK transactivated KDR/Flk-1 through an intrinsic kinase activity of KDR/Flk-1, resulting in a further eNOS activation in endothelial cells. This represents a novel mechanism whereby a G protein-coupled receptor activates a receptor tyrosine kinase to generate biological response.

Abstract
Phospholipase C-γ1 (PLC-γ1) is involved in a variety of intracellular signaling via many growth factor receptors and T-cell receptor. To explore the role of PLC-γ1 in vivo, we generated the PLC-γ1-deficient (plc-γ1–/–) mice, which died of growth retardation at embryonic day 8.5-9.5 in utero. Therefore, we examined plc-γ1–/– chimeric mice generated with plc-γ1–/– embryonic stem (ES) cells for further study. Pathologically, plc-γ1–/– chimeras showed multicystic kidney due to severe renal dysplasia and renal tube dilation. Flow cytometric analysis and glucose phosphate isomerase assay revealed very few hematopoietic cells derived from the plc-γ1–/– ES cells in the mutant chimeras. However, differentiation of plc-γ1–/– ES cells into erythrocytes and monocytes/macrophages in vitro was observed to a lesser extent compared with control wild-type ES cells. These data suggest that PLC-γ1 plays an essential role in the renal development and hematopoiesis in vivo.

Abstract
Bradykinin is a multifunctional mediator of inflammation believed to have a role in asthma, a disorder associated with remodeling of extracellular connective tissue. Using contraction of collagen gels as an in vitro model of wound contraction, we assessed the effects of bradykinin tissue on remodeling. Human fetal lung fibroblasts were embedded in type I collagen gels and cultured for 5 days. After release, the floating gels were cultured in the presence of bradykinin. Bradykinin significantly stimulated contraction in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Coincubation with phosphoramidon augmented the effect of 10(-9) and 10(-8) M bradykinin. A B2 receptor antagonist attenuated the effect of bradykinin, whereas a B1 receptor antagonist had no effect, suggesting that the effect is mediated by the B2 receptor. An inhibitor of intracellular Ca2+ mobilization abolished the response; addition of EGTA to the culture medium attenuated the contraction of control gels but did not modulate the response to bradykinin. In contrast, the phospholipase C inhibitor U-73122 and the protein kinase C inhibitors staurosporine and GF-109203X attenuated the responses. These data suggest that by augmenting the contractility of fibroblasts, bradykinin may have an important role in remodeling of extracellular matrix that may result in tissue dysfunction in chronic inflammatory diseases, such as asthma.

Abstract
Bradykinin (BK) is an important physiological regulator of endothelial cell function. In the present study, we have examined the role of the Janus-activated kinase (JAK)/signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) pathway in endothelial signal transduction through the BK B2 receptor (B2R). In cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs), BK activates Tyk2 of the JAK family of tyrosine kinases. Activation results in the tyrosine phosphorylation and subsequent nuclear translocation of STAT3. BK also activates the mitogen-activated p44 and p42 protein kinases, resulting in STAT3 serine phosphorylation. Furthermore, Tyk2 and STAT3 form a complex with the B2R in response to BK stimulation. Under basal conditions, Tyk2, STAT3 and the B2R are localized either partially or entirely in endothelial plasmalemmal caveolae. Following BK stimulation of BAECs, however, the B2R and STAT3 are translocated out of caveolae. Taken together, these data suggest that BK activates the JAK/STAT pathway in endothelial cells and that JAK/STAT signalling proteins are localized in endothelial caveolae. Moreover, caveolar localization of the B2R and STAT3 appears to be regulated in an agonist-dependent manner.

Abstract
Two classes of receptors transduce neurotransmitter signals: ionotropic receptors and heptahelical metabotropic receptors. Whereas the ionotropic receptors are structurally associated with a membrane channel, a mediating mechanism is necessary to functionally link metabotropic receptors with their respective effectors. According to the accepted paradigm, the first step in the metabotropic transduction process requires the activation of heterotrimeric G-proteins. An increasing number of observations, however, point to a novel mechanism through which neurotransmitters can initiate biochemical signals and modulate neuronal excitability. According to this mechanism metabotropic receptors induce responses by activating transduction systems that do not involve G-proteins.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine whether inhibitors of tyrosine kinase attenuate vasodilation elicited by endogenously elaborated and exogenously applied nitric oxide in the in situ peripheral microcirculation. Using intravital microscopy, we found that pretreatment with genistein (1.0 microM) and tyrphostin 25 (10.0 microM), two structurally unrelated tyrosine kinase inhibitors, significantly attenuated acetylcholine-, bradykinin- and nitroglycerin-induced dilation of second-order arterioles (51 +/- 1 microm) in the in situ hamster cheek pouch (P < 0.05). Both inhibitors nearly abrogated acetylcholine-induced responses but only partially blocked bradykinin- and nitroglycerin-induced vasodilation. Genistein and tyrphostin 25 alone had no significant effects on resting arteriolar diameter and on adenosine-induced vasodilation in the cheek pouch. On balance, these data indicate that tyrosine kinase inhibitors attenuate endogenously elaborated and exogenously applied nitric oxide-induced vasodilation in the in situ hamster cheek pouch. However, the extent of tyrosine kinase inhibitor-sensitive pathway involvement in this response appears to be agonist dependent.

Abstract
The mechanism of endothelium-dependent regulation of vascular tone of bradykinin was investigated by simultaneously monitoring the changes in the cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration and the force of smooth muscle in fura-2-loaded strips of the porcine renal artery with endothelium. During phenylephrine-induced sustained contraction, bradykinin (>3x10(-9) M) caused endothelium-dependent triphasic changes in the force of the strips, composed of an initial relaxation, a subsequent transient contraction and a late sustained relaxation. At low concentrations (10(-10) - 10(-9) M), bradykinin caused an endothelium-dependent biphasic relaxation with no contraction. A thromboxane A(2) (TXA(2))/prostaglandin H(2) (PGH(2)) receptor antagonist (10(-5) M ONO-3708) completely inhibited, while a TXA(2) synthase inhibitor (10(-5) M OKY-046) only partially inhibited, the transient contraction induced by bradykinin. Under conditions where the bradykinin-induced contraction was inhibited by ONO-3708 during the phenylephrine-induced contraction, bradykinin induced only a transient relaxation in the presence of N(Omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME). This transient relaxation was inhibited when the precontraction was initiated by phenylephrine plus 40 mM extracellular K(+). The removal of L-NAME from this condition caused a partial reappearance of the initial relaxation and a complete reappearance of the sustained relaxation. In conclusion, bradykinin caused the endothelium-dependent triphasic regulation of vascular tone in the porcine renal artery. The concentrations of bradykinin required to induce a contraction was higher than that required to induce relaxation. Both TXA(2) and PGH(2) were involved in the bradykinin-induced contraction. The initial relaxation was mediated by nitric oxide and hyperpolarizing factors while the sustained relaxation depended on nitric oxide.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine whether bradykinin, the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor ramiprilat, and the calcium-channel antagonist amlodipine reduce myocardial oxygen consumption (MV(O2)) via a B(2)-kinin receptor/nitric oxide-dependent mechanism. Left ventricular free wall and septum were isolated from normal and B(2)-kinin receptor knockout (B(2) -/-) mice. Myocardial tissue oxygen consumption was measured in an airtight chamber with a Clark-type oxygen electrode. Baseline MV(O2) was not significantly different between normal (239+/-13 nmol of O(2). min(-1). g(-1)) and B(2) -/- (263+/-24 nmol of O(2). min(-1). g(-1)) mice. S-nitroso-N-acetyl-penicillamine (10(-7) to 10(-4) mol/L) reduced oxygen consumption in a concentration-dependent manner in both normal (maximum, 36+/-3%) and B(2) -/- mice (28+/-3%). This was also true for the endothelium-dependent vasodilator substance P (10(-10) to 10(-7) mol/L; 22+/-7% in normal mice and 20+/-4% in B(2) -/- mice). Bradykinin (10(-7) to 10(-4) mol/L), ramiprilat (10(-7) to 10(-4) mol/L), and amlodipine (10(-7) to 10(-5) mol/L) all caused concentration-dependent decreases in MV(O2)in normal mice. At the highest concentration, tissue O(2) consumption was decreased by 18+/-3%, 20+/-5%, and 28+/-3%, respectively. The reduction in MV(O2) to all 3 drugs was attenuated in the presence of N(G)-nitro-L-arginine-methyl ester. However, in the B(2) -/- mice, bradykinin, ramiprilat, and amlodipine had virtually no effect on MV(O2). Therefore, nitric oxide, through a bradykinin-receptor-dependent mechanism, regulates cardiac oxygen consumption. This physiological mechanism is absent in B(2) -/- mice and may be evidence of an important therapeutic mechanism of action of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and amlodipine.

Abstract
The effect of secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) on intracellular Ca2+ signaling in human astrocytoma cells was studied. sPLA2 increased cytosolic [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]c) in both Ca2+-containing and Ca2+-free medium, thus suggesting Ca2+ release from intracellular stores. The activation by sPLA2 of arachidonate release via cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2) was also independent of extracellular Ca2+. As sPLA2 requires Ca2+ for activity, these results indicate that both Ca2+ mobilization and cPLA2 activation induced by sPLA2 are unrelated to phospholipase activity but dependent on signaling mechanisms. The sPLA2-induced [Ca2+]c peak was sensitive to Bordetella pertussis toxin and inhibited by caffeine, suggesting its mediation by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3). sPLA2 induced tyrosine phosphorylation and membrane targeting of phospholipase Cgamma-1 (PLCgamma-1). Moreover, the Ca2+ peak was sensitive to protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors. sPLA2 activates two signaling pathways: one leading to the activation of the MAP kinase/cPLA2 cascade and another leading to PLCgamma activation and Ca2+ release.

Abstract
The widely expressed phospholipase C gamma1 (PLCgamma1) isoform has been implicated in the signalling of cell growth through its ability to hydrolyse phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate to give inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and 1,2-diacylglycerol. Stimulation of PLCgamma1 activity occurs upon phosphorylation of specific tyrosine residues, although it is unclear how this phosphorylation actually stimulates catalytic activity. Indeed recent reports suggest that accessory factors such as GTP-binding proteins may also be required for complete activation of PLCgamma1 in some cells. This may be of importance in vascular smooth muscle where traditionally G-protein linked PLCbeta isoforms are often absent. Here, we show that bovine aortic PLCgamma1 activity is substantially enhanced by both GTPgammaS and sodium fluoride. Similarly, immunoprecipitated PLCgamma1 is associated with an approximately 40kDa GTPgammaS-binding protein and both Galphai and Galphaq were detected in this immunoprecipitate. This data suggests that bovine aortic PLCgamma1 is both associated with, and may be activated by, heterotrimeric G-proteins.

Abstract
It has been shown previously that the endothelial nitric-oxide synthase (eNOS) interacts reversibly with the plasmalemmal caveolae structural protein, caveolin-1. The eNOS-caveolin-1 interaction inhibits eNOS catalytic activity. In the present study, we show that eNOS also participates in reversible inhibitory interactions with the G protein-coupled bradykinin B2 receptor. eNOS and the B2 receptor are coimmunoprecipitated from endothelial cell lysates by antibodies directed against either of the two proteins. A glutathione S-transferase fusion protein containing intracellular domain 4 of the receptor is bound by purified recombinant eNOS in in vitro binding assays. The fusion protein selectively inhibits the activity of purified eNOS. A synthetic peptide corresponding to membrane-proximal residues 310-334 in intracellular domain 4 also potently inhibits eNOS activity (IC50 < 1 microM). Treatment of cultured endothelial cells with bradykinin or Ca2+ ionophore promotes a rapid dissociation of the eNOS.B2 receptor complex. These data demonstrate that the bradykinin B2 receptor physically associates with eNOS in a ligand- and Ca2+-dependent manner. Reversible and inhibitory membrane-docking interactions of eNOS, therefore, are not restricted to those with caveolin-1 but also occur with the bradykinin B2 receptor.
