Abstract
Anticancer immune surveillance and immunotherapies trigger activation of cytotoxic cytokine signaling, including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) pathways. The pro-inflammatory cytokine TNF-α may be secreted by stromal cells, tumor-associated macrophages, and by cancer cells, indicating a prominent role in the tumor microenvironment (TME). However, tumors manage to adapt, escape immune surveillance, and ultimately develop resistance to the cytotoxic effects of TNF-α. The mechanisms by which cancer cells evade host immunity is a central topic of current cancer research. Resistance to TNF-α is mediated by diverse molecular mechanisms, such as mutation or downregulation of TNF/TRAIL receptors, as well as activation of anti-apoptotic enzymes and transcription factors. TNF-α signaling is also mediated by sphingosine kinases (SphK1 and SphK2), which are responsible for synthesis of the growth-stimulating phospholipid, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P). Multiple studies have demonstrated the crucial role of S1P and its transmembrane receptors (S1PR) in both the regulation of inflammatory responses and progression of cancer. Considering that the SphK/S1P/S1PR axis mediates cancer resistance, this sphingolipid signaling pathway is of mechanistic significance when considering immunotherapy-resistant malignancies. However, the exact mechanism by which sphingolipids contribute to the evasion of immune surveillance and abrogation of TNF-α-induced apoptosis remains largely unclear. This study reviews mechanisms of TNF-α-resistance in cancer cells, with emphasis on the pro-survival and immunomodulatory effects of sphingolipids. Inhibition of SphK/S1P-linked pro-survival branch may facilitate reactivation of the pro-apoptotic TNF superfamily effects, although the role of SphK/S1P inhibitors in the regulation of the TME and lymphocyte trafficking should be thoroughly assessed in future studies.

Abstract
Nowadays we understand cell membranes not as a simple double lipid layer but as a collection of complex and dynamic protein-lipid structures and microdomains that serve as functional platforms for interacting signaling lipids and proteins. Membrane lipids and lipid structures participate directly as messengers or regulators of signal transduction. In addition, protein-lipid interactions participate in the localization of signaling protein partners to specific membrane microdomains. Thus, lipid alterations change cell signaling that are associated with a variety of diseases including cancer, obesity, neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular pathologies, etc. This article reviews the newly emerging field of membrane lipid therapy which involves the pharmacological regulation of membrane lipid composition and structure for the treatment of diseases. Membrane lipid therapy proposes the use of new molecules specifically designed to modify membrane lipid structures and microdomains as pharmaceutical disease-modifying agents by reversing the malfunction or altering the expression of disease-specific protein or lipid signal cascades. Here, we provide an in-depth analysis of this emerging field, especially its molecular bases and its relevance to the development of innovative therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
The classic heat shock (stress) response (HSR) was originally attributed to protein denaturation. However, heat shock protein (Hsp) induction occurs in many circumstances where no protein denaturation is observed. Recently considerable evidence has been accumulated to the favor of the "Membrane Sensor Hypothesis" which predicts that the level of Hsps can be changed as a result of alterations to the plasma membrane. This is especially pertinent to mild heat shock, such as occurs in fever. In this condition the sensitivity of many transient receptor potential (TRP) channels is particularly notable. Small temperature stresses can modulate TRP gating significantly and this is influenced by lipids. In addition, stress hormones often modify plasma membrane structure and function and thus initiate a cascade of events, which may affect HSR. The major transactivator heat shock factor-1 integrates the signals originating from the plasma membrane and orchestrates the expression of individual heat shock genes. We describe how these observations can be tested at the molecular level, for example, with the use of membrane perturbers and through computational calculations. An important fact which now starts to be addressed is that membranes are not homogeneous nor do all cells react identically. Lipidomics and cell profiling are beginning to address the above two points. Finally, we observe that a deregulated HSR is found in a large number of important diseases where more detailed knowledge of the molecular mechanisms involved may offer timely opportunities for clinical interventions and new, innovative drug treatments. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Membrane Structure and Function: Relevance in the Cell's Physiology, Pathology and Therapy.

Abstract
The role for the endothelial sphingosine-1-phosphate 1 receptor (S1P1R) in acute kidney injury (AKI) remains unclear as germline endothelial S1P1R deletion is embryonically lethal. Here, we generated conditional endothelial S1P1R deficiency by crossing mice with floxed S1P1R with mice expressing a tamoxifen-inducible form of Cre recombinase under the transcriptional control of the platelet-derived growth factor-β gene. Mice with tamoxifen-induced deletion of endothelial S1P1R had increased renal tubular necrosis, inflammation, impaired vascular permeability as well as exacerbated renal tubular apoptosis after ischemic AKI compared to tamoxifen-treated wild type mice. Moreover, endothelial S1P1R deletion resulted in increased hepatic injury after ischemic AKI. As a potential mechanism for exacerbated renal injury, conditional endothelial S1P1R null mice had markedly reduced endothelial HSP27 expression compared to wild type mice. Cultured glomerular endothelial cells treated with a specific S1P1R antagonist (W146) for 3 days also showed reduced HSP27 expression compared to vehicle treated cells. Finally, mice treated with W146 for 3 days also showed reduced endothelial HSP27 expression as well as exacerbated renal and hepatic injury after ischemic AKI. Thus, our studies demonstrate a protective role for endothelial S1P1R against ischemic AKI most likely by regulating endothelial barrier integrity and endothelial HSP27 expression.

Abstract
Heat stress is a common and, therefore, an important environmental impact on cells and organisms. While much attention has been paid to severe heat stress, moderate temperature elevations are also important. Here we discuss temperature sensing and how responses to heat stress are not necessarily dependent on denatured proteins. Indeed, it is clear that membrane lipids have a pivotal function. Details of membrane lipid changes and the associated production of signalling metabolites are described and suggestions made as to how the interconnected signalling network could be modified for helpful intervention in disease.

Exp Cell Res 2012; 319:88-95. [PMID: 23043959 DOI: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2012.09.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2012] [Revised: 09/11/2012] [Accepted: 09/30/2012] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
Alarmins, the endogenous molecules that recruit and activate innate immune cells, are considered as subgroups of damage-associated molecular patterns. Heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) is one of putative alarmins together with high mobility group box 1, S100s, interleukin-1α, and annexins. It has cytokine-like functions as well as molecular chaperone functions. However, the cytokine function of Hsp70 has not been clear. Here, we demonstrated that there exists the positive feedback regulation of Hsp70 induction in innate immune cells. Heat stress (HS) increased intracellular Hsp70 (iHsp70) and it was actively released into extracellular space through the Golgi complex. Human recombinant Hsp70 (rhHsp70) up-regulated iHsp70 expression and induced pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion via Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). rhHsp70 rapidly activated Akt, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). Moreover, glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) was inactivated by rhHsp70-induced Akt activation. Knockdown of TLR4 and overexpression of dominant negative TLR4 (DN-TLR4) suppressed the above effects of rhHsp70. The effects of rhHsp70 were not due to endotoxin contamination. Akt-dependent GSK-3β inactivation was responsible for iHsp70 induction by rhHsp70. Overexpression of DN-Akt or constitutively active GSK-3β or pretreatment of LY294002 inhibited rhHsp70-induced iHsp70 up-regulation, which was similar to the mechanism of HS-mediated induction of Hsp70. Thus, these data suggest the positive feedback regulatory mechanism of iHsp70 induction.

Abstract
Carbenoxolone (CBX) is a semisynthetic derivative of the licorice root substance glycyrrhizinic acid and has been previously reported to induce only heat shock protein 70 [Hsp70, HSPA1A (the systematic name of heat shock protein is given in the parenthesis after each HSP, according to the recent nomenclature guidelines, Kampinga et al., Cell Stress Chaperones, 14:105-111, 2008) but not other heat shock proteins (HSPs) (Nagayama et al., Life Sci. 69:2867-2873, 2001). In this study, we reinvestigated the effect of CBX on the induction of HSPs in HeLa and human neuroblastoma (A-172) cells. CBX clearly induced not only Hsp70 but also Hsp90 (HSPC1), Hsp40 (DNAJB1), and Hsp27 (HSPB1) at concentrations of 10 to 800 microM for 16 h incubation. At higher concentrations (more than 400 microM), however, CBX appeared to be toxic. Treatment of cells with CBX resulted in enhanced phosphorylation and acquisition of DNA-binding ability of heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1). Furthermore, characteristic HSF1 granules were formed in the nucleus, suggesting that the induction of HSPs by CBX is mediated by the activation of HSF1. Furthermore, thermotolerance was induced by CBX treatment, as determined by clonogenic survival. Although the precise target of CBX is not known at present, these results indicate that CBX is one of the molecular chaperone inducers and suggest that some pharmacological activities of CBX might be ascribable in part to its molecular chaperone-inducing property.

Abstract
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a naturally occurring glycerophospholipid, can evoke various biological responses, including cell migration, proliferation and survival, via activation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). However, the role of LPA receptors and details of LPA signaling in migration are largely unexplored. In this study we detect the expression of LPA1 and LPA3 receptors in rat aortic smooth muscle cells (RASMCs). LPA stimulated RASMCs migration in a dose-dependent manner and induced the phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK). LPA-induced cell migration was significantly inhibited by specific LPA1/LPA3-receptor antagonist Dioctylglycerol pyrophosphate (8:0) (DGPP8.0) at higher concentration. Migration of cells toward LPA was partially, but significantly, reduced in the presence of SB-203580, a p38 MAPK inhibitor, but not PD98059, an ERK inhibitor. In addition, pertussis toxin (PTX), a Gi protein inhibitor, induced an inhibitory effect on p38 MAPK, ERK phosphorylation and RASMCs migration. These data suggest that LPA-induced migration is mediated through the Gi-protein-coupled LPA1 receptor involving activation of a PTX-sensitive Gi / p38MAPK pathway.

Abstract
Olibanum (Boswellia serrata) has been shown to have anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic and anti-cancer effects. This study determined the role of a water extract of olibanum in platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-stimulated proliferation and migration of rat aortic smooth muscle cells (RASMCs). PDGF-BB induced the migration and proliferation of RASMCs that were inhibited by olibanum extract in a dose-dependent manner. The PDGF-BB-increased phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK); the heat shock protein (Hsp) 27 was significantly inhibited by the olibanum extract. The effects of PDGF-BB-induced extracellular signal-regulated kinase1/2 was not altered by the olibanum extract. Treatment with olibanum extract inhibited PDGF-BB-stimulated sprout out growth of aortic rings. These results suggest that the water extract of olibanum inhibits PDGF-BB-stimulated migration and proliferation in RASMCs as well as sprout out growth, which may be mediated by the inhibition of the p38 MAPK and Hsp27 pathways.

Abstract
The small heat shock proteins (HSPs) HSP20, HSP27 and alphaB-crystallin are chaperone proteins that are abundantly expressed in smooth muscles are important modulators of muscle contraction, cell migration and cell survival. This review focuses on factors regulating expression of small HSPs in smooth muscle, signaling pathways that regulate macromolecular structure and the biochemical and cellular functions of small HSPs. Cellular processes regulated by small HSPs include chaperoning denatured proteins, maintaining cellular redox state and modifying filamentous actin polymerization. These processes influence smooth muscle proliferation, cell migration, cell survival, muscle contraction and synthesis of signaling proteins. Understanding functions of small heat shock proteins is relevant to mechanisms of disease in which dysfunctional smooth muscle causes symptoms, or is a target of drug therapy. One example is that secreted HSP27 may be a useful marker of inflammation during atherogenesis. Another is that phosphorylated HSP20 which relaxes smooth muscle may prove to be highly relevant to treatment of hypertension, vasospasm, asthma, premature labor and overactive bladder. Because small HSPs also modulate smooth muscle proliferation and cell migration they may prove to be targets for developing effective, novel treatments of clinical problems arising from remodeling of smooth muscle in vascular, respiratory and urogenital systems.

RASMC migration was measured with the Boyden chamber assay, and the result was confirmed with an aortic sprout assay. The activities of kinases were investigated by western blot analysis. Ang II enhanced RASMC migration, which was chemotaxis directed, and induced the phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), and heat shock protein 27 (Hsp27). Ang II-enhanced cell migration was inhibited by SB203580 (a p38 MAPK inhibitor) and piceatannol (a spleen tyrosine kinase inhibitor), but only partially by PD98059 (an ERK inhibitor) and PP2 (a Src inhibitor). The Ang II-stimulated phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and Hsp27 in RASMCs was inhibited by piceatannol and SB203580. The phosphorylation of ERK1/2 stimulated by Ang II was suppressed by PD98059, piceatannol, and PP2. Ang II increased the sprout outgrowth from aortic rings and this response was attenuated by pretreatment with SB203580, PD98059, PP2, or piceatannol. These results suggest that p38 MAPK contributes to the regulation of the Ang II-induced chemotactic migration of vascular smooth muscle cells, which is mediated by Hsp27 phosphorylation.

Abstract
Heat shock (HS), like many other stresses, induces specific and highly regulated signaling cascades that promote cellular homeostasis. The three major mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) and protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) are the most notable of these HS-stimulated pathways. Their activation occurs rapidly and sooner than the transcriptional upregulation of heat shock proteins (Hsp), which generate a transient state of extreme resistance against subsequent thermal stress. The direct connection of these signaling pathways to cellular death or survival mechanisms suggests that they contribute importantly to the HS response. Some of them may counteract early noxious effects of heat, while others may bolster key apoptosis events. The triggering events responsible for activating these pathways are unclear. Protein denaturation, specific and nonspecific receptor activation, membrane alteration and chromatin structure perturbation are potential initiating factors.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinases, Src and spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk), play crucial roles in cell responses to platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and may have their functional interactions. In this study, we focused on investigating the roles of Syk in the regulation of Src signaling in PDGF-mediated vascular cell responses. Migration, proliferation, and activity of kinases were determined in rat aortic smooth muscle cells (RASMCs). PDGF-BB (10 ng/mL) induced the migration and proliferation of RASMCs, which were significantly inhibited by PP2 (10 microM) and piceatannol (30 microM), inhibitors of Src and Syk, respectively. The phosphorylation of Syk induced by PDGF-BB was abolished by PP2. PDGF-BB increased the co-association of the PDGFbeta-receptor and the kinases, Src or Syk, and its maximal binding to Src was achieved in a shorter time than that to Syk. PDGF-BB stimulated the phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2, which was inhibited by PP2 and piceatannol. PDGF-BB-induced proliferation and migration were inhibited by SB203580 (30 microM) and PD98059 (30 microM), inhibitors of p38 MAPK and ERK1/2, respectively. These results imply that Syk is regulated by Src kinase, which participates in migration and proliferation in response to PDGF-BB in RASMCs.

Abstract
Although spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) has crucial roles in various cells, its function on vascular smooth muscle contraction has not been determined. In the present study, we performed experiments to determine if Syk contributes to the endothelin-1 (ET-1)-mediated contraction in rat aortic smooth muscle. ET-1-induced contraction of aortic strips was inhibited by piceatannol, PD98059, and SB203580, inhibitors of Syk, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), respectively. Piceatannol also attenuated high K(+)-induced contraction. ET-1 dose-dependently enhanced the activity of Syk and this was inhibited by piceatannol in both rat aortic strip and rat aortic smooth muscle cells. The phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and heat shock protein 27 (HSP27), but not that of ERK1/2, in response to ET-1 was inhibited by both piceatannol and SB203580. These results suggest that Syk may play an important role in the regulation of aortic smooth muscle contraction induced by ET-1, which may be mediated by the p38 MAPK/HSP27 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins are molecular chaperones that have an ability to protect proteins from damage induced by environmental factors such as free radicals, heat, ischaemia and toxins, allowing denatured proteins to adopt their native configuration. Heat shock protein-27 (Hsp27) is a member of the small Hsp (sHsp) family of proteins, and has a molecular weight of approximately 27 KDa. In addition to its role as a chaperone, it has also been reported to have many additional functions. These include effects on the apoptotic pathway, cell movement and embryogenesis. In this review, we have focused on its possible role in vascular disease.

Abstract
Chaperones (stress proteins) are essential proteins to help the formation and maintenance of the proper conformation of other proteins and to promote cell survival after a large variety of environmental stresses. Therefore, normal chaperone function is a key factor for endogenous stress adaptation of several tissues. However, altered chaperone function has been associated with the development of several diseases; therefore, modulators of chaperone activities became a new and emerging field of drug development. Inhibition of the 90 kDa heat shock protein (Hsp)90 recently emerged as a very promising tool to combat various forms of cancer. On the other hand, the induction of the 70 kDa Hsp70 has been proved to be an efficient help in the recovery from a large number of diseases, such as, for example, ischemic heart disease, diabetes and neurodegeneration. Development of membrane-interacting drugs to modify specific membrane domains, thereby modulating heat shock response, may be of considerable therapeutic benefit as well. In this review, we give an overview of the therapeutic approaches and list some of the key questions of drug development in this novel and promising therapeutic approach.

Abstract
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) mediates diverse biological responses, including cell migration, through the activation of G-protein-coupled receptors. Recently, we have shown that LPA stimulates p21-activated kinase (PAK) that is critical for focal adhesion kinase (FAK) phosphorylation and cell motility. Here, we provide the direct evidence that p85 beta-PIX is required for cell motility of NIH-3T3 cells by LPA through FAK and p38 MAP kinase phosphorylations. LPA induced p85 beta-PIX binding to FAK in NIH-3T3 cells that was inhibited by pretreatment of the cells with phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitor, LY294002. Furthermore, the similar inhibition of the complex formation was also observed, when the cells were transfected with either p85 beta-PIX mutant that cannot bind GIT or dominant negative mutants of Rac1 (N17Rac1) and PAK (PAK-PID). Transfection of the cells with specific p85 beta-PIX siRNA led to drastic inhibition of LPA-induced FAK phosphorylation, peripheral redistribution of p85 beta-PIX with FAK and GIT1, and cell motility. p85 beta-PIX was also required for p38 MAP kinase phosphorylation induced by LPA. Finally, dominant negative mutant of Rho (N19Rho)-transfected cells did not affect PAK activation, while the cells stably transfected with p85 beta-PIX siRNA or N17Rac1 showed the reduction of LPA-induced PAK activation. Taken together, the present data suggest that p85 beta-PIX, located downstream of Rac1, is a key regulator for the activations of FAK or p38 MAP kinase and plays a pivotal role in focal complex formation and cell motility induced by LPA.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is a focal inflammatory disease and preferentially occurs in areas of low fluid shear stress and oscillatory flow, whereas the risk of atherosclerosis is decreased in regions of high fluid shear stress and steady laminar flow. Sphingosine kinase-1 (SphK1) catalyzes the conversion of sphingosine to sphingosine-1 phosphate (S1P), a sphingolipid metabolite that plays important roles in angiogenesis, inflammation, and cell growth. In the present study, we demonstrated that exposure of human aortic endothelial cells to oscillatory flow (shear stress, ±5 dyn/cm2for 48 h) resulted in a marked increase in SphK1 mRNA levels compared with endothelial cells kept in static culture. In contrast, laminar flow (shear stress, 20 dyn/cm2for 48 h) decreased SphK1 mRNA levels. We further investigated the role of SphK1 in TNF-α-induced expression of inflammatory genes, such as monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and VCAM-1 by using small interfering RNA (siRNA) specifically for SphK1. Treatment of endothelial cells with SphK1 siRNA suppressed TNF-α-induced increase in MCP-1 mRNA levels, MCP-1 protein secretion, and activation of p38 MAPK. SphK1 siRNA also inhibited TNF-α-induced cell surface expression of VCAM-1, but not ICAM-1, protein. Exposure of endothelial cells to S1P led to an increase in MCP-1 protein secretion and MCP-1 mRNA levels and activation of NF-κB-mediated transcriptional activity. Treatment of endothelial cells with the p38 MAPK inhibitor SB-203580 suppressed S1P-induced MCP-1 protein secretion. These data suggest that SphK1 mediates TNF-α-induced MCP-1 gene expression through a p38 MAPK-dependent pathway and may participate in oscillatory flow-mediated proinflammatory signaling pathway in the vasculature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S-1-P) is an extracellular mediator released in response to vessel injury. S-1-P binds to G-protein-coupled receptors, which can be Galpha(i)-, Galpha(q)-, or G(12/13)-linked. This study examines the role of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38(MAPK)) in vascular smooth muscle cell migration after stimulation with S-1-P, and pathways leading to p38(MAPK) activation. S-1-P has previously been shown to stimulate migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in vitro through ERK1/2 and G(i). We hypothesized that S-1-P-induced VSMC migration is also dependent on p38(MAPK) activation through a G(i)-coupled extracellular receptor and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-K). METHODS VSMCs were cultured in vitro. A linear wound assay was performed in the presence of S-1-P and inhibitors of p38(MAPK) (SB203580) or epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor kinase (AG1478). Chemotaxis stimulated by S-1-P was also assayed in a modified Boyden chamber with and without SB203580 pretreatment. Western blotting was performed to examine p38(MAPK) activation in response to S-1-P with and without SB203580, AG1478, or inhibitors of G(i) (pertussis toxin), PI3-K (Wortmannin and LY294002), or MEK1 (PD98059). Western blotting and immunoprecipitation for targets of p38(MAPK) (MAPKAP kinase-2) and PI3-K (Akt) were also performed.S-1-P stimulated migration of VSMCs in both wound and Boyden transwell assays. This migration was inhibited by SB203580 to the level of control, whereas AG478 had no effect. RESULTS S-1-P stimulated activation of p38(MAPK) that peaked at 10 min, as well as activation of MAPKAP kinase-2. Activation of p38(MAPK) was significantly inhibited by SB203580, pertussis toxin, Wortmannin, and LY294002, but not by PD98059 or AG1478; MAPKAP kinase-2 activation was inhibited by SB203580. Akt was activated by S-1-P at 3 to 5 min; this response was inhibited by Wortmannin and LY294002, but not by SB203580 or pertussis toxin. CONCLUSIONS S-1-P induced VSMC migration through a G(i)-linked and a PI3-K coupled, p38(MAPK)- dependent process. PI3-K appears to function upstream of p38(MAPK), but was not G(i)-dependent. S-1-P-stimulated activation of p38(MAPK) does not signal via transactivation of the EGF receptor. Understanding signal transduction will allow targeted molecular interventions to treat the response of a vessel to injury.

Abstract
Intracellular phosphorylation of cis-4-methylsphingosine was previously shown to result in a metabolically stable compound that accumulates in Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts and mimics the mitogenic effect induced by the short-lived sphingosine metabolite, sphingosine-1-phosphate. In the present study incubation of neuroblastoma B104 cells with cis-4-methylsphingosine (10 microM) also resulted in an intracellular accumulation of its phosphorylated derivative that was, however, associated with the concentration-dependent induction of apoptosis, not observed after treatment with 10 microM of sphingosine-1-phosphate or sphingosine, respectively. In B104 cells, cis-4-methylsphingosine stimulated p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) and simultaneously inhibited extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), whereas sphingosine and sphingosine-1-phosphate only stimulated p38 MAPK without suppression of ERK. Inhibition of cis-4-methylsphingosine phosphorylation reduced both, apoptosis and concurrent regulation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), suggesting that the unusual accumulation of the phosphorylated sphingoid base was responsible for the biological effects. Furthermore, inhibition of p38 MAPK prevented cis-4-methylsphingosine-induced apoptosis, while suppression of the ERK pathway in the presence of sphingosine or sphingosine-1-phosphate resulted in apoptosis, indicating that the simultaneous opposite regulation of the two MAPKs was required for the induction of apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sphingolipids such as sphingosine-1-phosphate (S-1-P) are potent extracellular mediators released in response to vessel injury. S-1-P binds to G-protein-coupled receptors, which can be either G(alphai) or G(alphaq) linked. This study examines the signaling pathways involved in vascular smooth muscle cell migration after stimulation by S-1-P. We hypothesized that S-1-P stimulates migration of smooth muscle cells that is dependent upon a G(alphai)-coupled receptor, ras, phosphoinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K), and ERK 1/2. METHODS Vascular smooth muscle cells were cultured in vitro. A linear wound assay and Boyden chamber assay of migration were employed in the presence of S-1-P and inhibitors of G(alphai) [pertussis toxin (PTx), 100 ng/ml], G(alphaq) (GP-2A, 10 microM), ras [manumycin A (MA), 10 microM], PI3-K [Wortmannin (Wn), 10 microM], and MEK1 [PD98059 (PD), 25 microM]. Western blotting was performed separately to examine p42/p44 MAP kinase (ERK 1/2) activation in response to S-1-P with these inhibitors. RESULTS S-1-P induced vascular smooth muscle cell migration. This response was decreased by preincubation with PTx, suggesting a receptor linked, G(alphai)-mediated response. Application of a G(alphaq) inhibitor did not affect this response. S-1-P induced ERK 1/2 phosphorylation in a time-dependent manner. This S-1-P-induced cell migration was PD-sensitive in the Boyden chamber assay, confirming that it is MEK1- and ERK1/2-dependent. Inhibition of ras with MA and PI3-K with Wn also reduced ERK phosphorylation and smooth muscle cell migration in response to S-1-P. CONCLUSIONS S-1-P induces smooth muscle cell migration through a G(alphai)-linked, ras- and PI3-K-coupled, ERK 1/2-dependent process. Understanding signal transduction will allow targeted molecular interventions to treat the response of a vessel to injury.

Abstract
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S-1-P) has been identified as an extracellular mediator and an intracellular second messenger that may modulate cell motility, adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation and cancer cell invasion. Widely distributed, S-1-P is most abundant in the intestine. Although S-1-P is likely to modulate various intracellular pathways, activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) such as extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 (ERK1), ERK2, and p38 is among the best-characterized S-1-P effects. Because the MAPKs regulate proliferation, we hypothesized that S-1-P might stimulate intestinal epithelial cell proliferation by MAPK activation. Human Caco-2 intestinal epithelial cells were cultured on a fibronectin matrix because fibronectin is an important constituent of the gut mucosal basement membrane. We assessed ERK1, ERK2, and p38 activation by Western blotting with antibodies specific for their active forms and proliferation by Coulter counting at 24 h. Specific MAP kinase kinase (MEK) and p38 inhibitors PD98059 (20 microM) and SB202190 and SB203580 (10 and 20 microM) were used to probe the role of ERK and p38 in S-1-P-mediated proliferation. Three or more similar studies were pooled for the analysis. S-1-P stimulated Caco-2 proliferation and dose-responsively activated ERK1, ERK2, and p38. Proliferation peaked at 5 microM, yielding a cell number 166.3 +/- 2.7% of the vehicle control (n = 6, P < 0.05). S-1-P also maximally stimulated ERK1, ERK2, and p38 at 5 microM, to 164.4 +/- 19.9%, 232.2 +/- 38.5%, and 169.2 +/- 20.5% of the control, respectively. Although MEK inhibition prevented S-1-P activation of ERK1 and ERK2 and slightly but significantly inhibited basal Caco-2 proliferation, MEK inhibition did not block the S-1-P mitogenic effect. However, pretreatment with 10 microM SB202190 or SB203580 (putative p38 inhibitors) attenuated the stimulation of proliferation by S-1-P. Twenty micromolars of SB202190 or SB203580 completely blocked the mitogenic effect of S-1-P. Ten to twenty micromolars of SB202190 and SB203580 also dose-dependently ablated the effects of 5 microM S-1-P on heat shock protein 27 accumulation, a downstream consequence of p38 MAPK activation. Consistent with the reports in some other cell types, S-1-P appears to activate ERK1, ERK2, and p38 and to stimulate proliferation. However, in contrast to the mediation of the S-1-P effects in some other cell types, S-1-P appears to stimulate human intestinal epithelial proliferation by activating p38. ERK activation by S-1-P is not required for its mitogenic effect.

Abstract
Vitamin D3 plays an important role in the regulation of mineral homeostasis, cell differentiation, and proliferation. However, the exact role of vitamin D3 in vascular smooth muscle cells remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated whether vitamin D3 induces vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) release in aortic smooth muscle A10 cells. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2VD3), an active form of vitamin D3, stimulated the VEGF release while 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (24,25(OH)2VD3), an inactive form of vitamin D3, had little effect on the release. The stimulatory effect of 1,25(OH)2VD3 was dose dependent in the range between 10 pM and 10 nM. 1,25(OH)2VD3 induced the phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase but 24,25(OH)2VD3 did not. PD169316 and SB203580, specific inhibitors of p38 MAP kinase, significantly reduced the 1,25(OH)2VD3-stimulated release of VEGF. On the contrary, SB202474, a negative control for p38 MAP kinase inhibitor, had little effect on the VEGF release. PD169316 attenuated the 1,25(OH)2VD3-induced phosphorylation of p38 MAP kinase. These results strongly suggest that 1,25(OH)2VD3 stimulates the release of VEGF in aortic smooth muscle cells via p38 MAP kinase activation.

Abstract
Sphingolipids have emerged as a new class of lipid mediators. In response to various extracellular stimuli, sphingolipid turnover can be stimulated in vascular cells and cardiac myocytes. Subsequent generation of sphingolipid molecules such as ceramide, sphingosine, and sphingosine-1-phosphate, is followed by regulation of ion fluxes and activation of various signaling pathways leading to smooth muscle cell proliferation, endothelial cell differentiation or apoptotic cell death, cell contraction, retraction, or migration. The importance of sphingolipids in cardiovascular signaling is illustrated by recent observations implicating them in physiological processes such as vasculogenesis as well as in frequent pathological conditions, including atherosclerosis and its complications.

Abstract
Although it is known that transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta induces vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) synthesis in vascular smooth muscle cells, the underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood. In the present study, we examined whether the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase superfamily is involved in TGF-beta-stimulated VEGF synthesis in aortic smooth muscle A10 cells. TGF-beta stimulated the phosphorylation of p42/p44 MAP kinase and p38 MAP kinase, but not that of SAPK (stress-activated protein kinase)/JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase). The VEGF synthesis induced by TGF-beta was not affected by PD98059 or U0126, specific inhibitors of the upstream kinase that activates p42/p44 MAP kinase. We confirmed that PD98059 or U0126 did actually suppress the phosphorylation of p42/p44 MAP kinase by TGF-beta in our preparations. PD169316 and SB203580, specific inhibitors of p38 MAP kinase, significantly reduced the TGF-beta-stimulated synthesis of VEGF (each in a dose-dependent manner). PD169316 or SB203580 attenuated the TGF-beta-induced phosphorylation of p38 MAP kinase. These results strongly suggest that p38 MAP kinase plays a part in the pathway by which TGF-beta stimulates the synthesis of VEGF in aortic smooth muscle cells.

Abstract
Substances released by platelets during blood clotting are essential participants in events that link hemostasis and angiogenesis and ensure adequate wound healing and tissue injury repair. We assessed the participation of sphingosine 1-phosphate (Sph-1-P), a biologically active phosphorylated lipid growth factor released from activated platelets, in the regulation of endothelial monolayer barrier integrity, which is key to both angiogenesis and vascular homeostasis. Sph-1-P produced rapid, sustained, and dose-dependent increases in transmonolayer electrical resistance (TER) across both human and bovine pulmonary artery and lung microvascular endothelial cells. This substance also reversed barrier dysfunction elicited by the edemagenic agent thrombin. Sph-1-P-mediated barrier enhancement was dependent upon G(ialpha)-receptor coupling to specific members of the endothelial differentiation gene (Edg) family of receptors (Edg-1 and Edg-3), Rho kinase and tyrosine kinase-dependent activation, and actin filament rearrangement. Sph-1-P-enhanced TER occurred in conjunction with Rac GTPase- and p21-associated kinase-dependent endothelial cortical actin assembly with recruitment of the actin filament regulatory protein, cofilin. Platelet-released Sph-1-P, linked to Rac- and Rho-dependent cytoskeletal rearrangement, may act late in angiogenesis to stabilize newly formed vessels, which often display abnormally increased vascular permeability.

Abstract
The role of lipid mediators derived from membrane glycerophospholipids and sphingolipids as intracellular messenger has been studied intensively during the last two decades, but with the recent discovery of high affinity G-protein coupled receptors for the lysophospholipids lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC), increasing attention has been paid to the role of these lipid mediators as extracellular mediators. This review will summarize the biosynthesis and metabolism of lysophospholipids and describe the family of endothelial differentiation gene (EDG) receptors as high affinity receptors for lysophospholipids. Furthermore, an overview of the numerous biological effects of lysophospholipids which might be mediated by EDG receptors will be given together with an outlook on the potential role of such mechanisms in pulmonary physiology and pathophysiology.

Abstract
We previously showed that sphingosine inhibits prostaglandin F(2alpha) (PGF(2alpha))-stimulated interleukin-6 synthesis in osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells. In the present study, we investigated the effect of sphingosine on phospholipase C-catalyzing phosphoinositide hydrolysis induced by PGF(2alpha) in these cells. Sphingosine inhibited the inositol phosphates formation by PGF(2alpha) or NaF, a GTP-binding protein activator. Sphingosine induced the phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase but did not affect the phosphorylation of p42/p44 MAP kinase. SB203580 and PD169316, inhibitors of p38 MAP kinase, rescued the inhibitory effect of sphingosine on the formation of inositol phosphates by PGF(2alpha) or NaF. These results indicate that sphingosine inhibits PGF(2alpha)-induced phosphoinositide hydrolysis by phospholipase C via p38 MAP kinase in osteoblasts.

In the present study, we investigated the effect of sphingosine 1-phosphate on phospholipase C-catalyzing phosphoinositide hydrolysis induced by prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2 alpha) in these cells. Sphingosine 1-phosphate significantly amplified the inositol phosphates formation by PGF2 alpha. Sphingosine 1-phosphate did not enhance the formation induced by NaF, a direct activator of heterotrimeric GTP-binding proteins. PD98059, an inhibitor of the kinase that activates p42/p44 MAP kinase, had little effect on the amplification by sphingosine 1-phosphate. SB203580, an inhibitor of p38 MAP kinase, reduced the effect of sphingosine 1-phosphate on the formation of inositol phosphates by PGF2 alpha. The phosphorylation of p42/p44 MAP kinase by PGF alpha was attenuated by PD98059. SB203580 suppressed the phosphorylation of p38 MAP kinase by PGF2 alpha. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha enhanced the PGF2 alpha-stimulated formation of inositol phosphates. These results strongly suggest that sphingosine 1-phosphate amplifies PGF2 alpha-induced phosphoinositide hydrolysis by phospholipase C through p38 MAP kinase in osteoblasts.
