Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health concern affecting millions worldwide. One of the critical challenges in CKD is the accumulation of uremic toxins such as p-cresol sulfate (pCS) and indoxyl sulfate (IS), which contribute to systemic damage and CKD progression. Understanding the transport mechanisms of these prominent toxins is essential for developing effective treatments. Here, we investigated whether pCS and IS are routed to the plasma membrane or to the cytosol by two key transporters, SLC22A11 and OAT1. To distinguish between cytosolic transport and plasma membrane insertion, we used a hyperosmolarity assay in which the accumulation of substrates into HEK-293 cells in isotonic and hypertonic buffers was measured in parallel using LC-MS/MS. Judging from the efficiency of transport (TE), pCS is a relevant substrate of SLC22A11 at 7.8 ± 1.4 µL min-1 mg protein-1 but not as good as estrone-3-sulfate; OAT1 translocates pCS less efficiently. The TE of SLC22A11 for IS was similar to pCS. For OAT1, however, IS is an excellent substrate. With OAT1 and p-aminohippuric acid, our study revealed an influence of transporter abundance on the outcomes of the hyperosmolarity assay; very high transport activity confounded results. SLC22A11 was found to insert both pCS and IS into the plasma membrane, whereas OAT1 conveys these toxins to the cytosol. These disparate transport mechanisms bear profound ramifications for toxicity. Membrane insertion might promote membrane damage and microvesicle release. Our results underscore the imperative for detailed structural inquiries into the translocation of small molecules.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) induces cellular senescence by reducing extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 phosphorylation and activating p53 via inhibition of mouse double minute 2 homolog (MDM2) and sirtuin 1 (Sirt1), promoting cell cycle arrest and decreasing fibroblast proliferation and collagen synthesis. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment increases collagen synthesis, rejuvenating skin. Using H2O2-induced senescent fibroblasts and the skin of 12-month-old mice, we tested the hypothesis that HIFU increases collagen production through Cav-1 modulation. HIFU was administered at 0.3, 0.5, or 0.7 J in the LINEAR and DOT modes. In both models, HIFU administration decreased Cav-1 levels, increased ERK1/2 phosphorylation, and decreased the binding of Cav-1 with both MDM2 and Sirt1. HIFU administration decreased p53 activation (acetylated p53) and p21 levels and increased cyclin D1, cyclin-dependent kinase 2, and proliferating cell nuclear antigen levels in both models. HIFU treatment increased collagen and elastin expression, collagen fiber accumulation, and elastin fiber density in aging skin, with 0.5 J in LINEAR mode resulting in the most prominent effects. HIFU treatment increased collagen synthesis to levels similar to those in Cav-1-silenced senescent fibroblasts. Our results suggest that HIFU administration increases dermal collagen and elastin fibers in aging skin via Cav-1 modulation and reduced p53 activity.

Abstract
We recently reported that an intact caveolar structure is necessary for adequate cell migration and tubulogenesis of the human extravillous trophoblast (EVT) cells. Emerging evidence supports that hyperosmolarity induces the internalization of caveolae into the cytoplasm and accelerates their turnover. Furthermore, signaling pathways associated with the regulation of trophoblast differentiation are localized in caveolae. We hypothesized that hyperosmolarity impairs EVT differentiation and caveolae/caveolin−1 (Cav-1) participates in this process. EVT cells (Swan 71 cell line) were cultured in complete Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium/Nutrient Mixture F-12 and exposed to hyperosmolar condition (generated by the addition of 100 mM sucrose). Hyperosmolarity altered the EVT cell migration and the formation of tube-like structures. In addition, cell invasion was decreased along with a reduction in the latent and active forms of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP−2) secreted by these cells. With respect to Cav-1 protein abundance, we found that hyperosmolarity enhanced its degradation by the lysosomal pathway. Accordingly, in the hyperosmolar condition, we also observed a significant increase in the number of vacuoles and the internalization of the caveolae into the cytoplasm. Taken together, our findings suggest that hyperosmolarity may induce caveolae internalization and increase their turnover, compromising the normal differentiation of EVT cells.

Abstract
The ability of cells to regulate their shape and volume is critical for many cell functions. How endocytosis and exocytosis, as important ways of membrane trafficking, affect cellular volume regulation is still unclear. Here, we develop a theoretical framework to study the dynamics of cell volume, endocytosis, and exocytosis in response to osmotic shocks and mechanical loadings. This model can not only explain observed dynamics of endocytosis and exocytosis during osmotic shocks but also predict the dynamics of endocytosis and exocytosis during cell compressions. We find that a hypotonic shock stimulates exocytosis, while a hypertonic shock stimulates endocytosis; and exocytosis in turn allows cells to have a dramatic change in cell volume but a small change in membrane tension during hyposmotic swelling, protecting cells from rupture under high tension. In addition, we find that cell compressions with various loading speeds induce three distinct dynamic modes of endocytosis and exocytosis. Finally, we show that increasing endocytosis and exocytosis rates reduce the changes in cell volume and membrane tension under fast cell compression, whereas they enhance the changes in cell volume and membrane tension under slow cell compression. Together, our findings reveal critical roles of endocytosis and exocytosis in regulating cell volume and membrane tension.

Abstract
The five frequency intervals of skin blood oscillation were described: cardiac, respiratory, myogenic, neurogenic, and endothelial. The endothelial interval is derived into NO-independent and NO-dependent. The exact molecular, cell, or systemic mechanisms of endothelial oscillations generation are unclear. We proposed that oscillations of Ca2+ and NO in endotheliocytes may be possible sources of skin blood perfusion (SBP) oscillations in endothelial interval. To examine our hypothesis we compared the oscillations of cytoplasmic Ca2+ and NO ([Ca2+ ]i and [NO]i ) concentration in cultured murine microvascular endotheliocytes and SBP oscillations in mice. Local heating test and model hypoxia were used as tools to evaluate an interconnection of studied parameters. [Ca2+ ]i and [NO]i were measured simultaneously by Fura-2 AM and DAF-FM. The SBP was measured by laser Doppler flowmetry. The [Ca2+ ]i and [NO]i oscillations at 0.005-0.01 Hz were observed in endotheliocytes, that coincides the ranges of NO-independent endothelial interval. Heating decreased amplitude of [Ca2+ ]i and [NO]i oscillations in cells in NO-independent endothelial interval, while amplitudes of SBP oscillations increased in NO-independent and NO-dependent intervals. Hypoxia reduced the [NO]i oscillations amplitude. Heating test during hypoxia increased NO-independent endothelial SBP oscillations and decreased myogenic ones, did not effect on [NO]i oscillations, and shifted [Ca2+ ]i oscillations peak from 0.005-0.01 Hz to 0.01-0.018 Hz. We observed the [Ca2+ ]i and [NO]i oscillations synchronization within a cell and between cells for the first time. Heating abolished these synchronizations. Therefore low-frequency [Ca2+ ]i and [NO]i oscillations in endotheliocytes may be considered as modulators of low-frequency endothelial SBP oscillations.

Abstract
Many drugs are largely hydrophobic molecules; a transporter might conceivably insert these into the plasma membrane. At least 18 transporters from diverse families have been reported to transport the model compound estrone sulfate alias estrone-3-sulfate (E3S). Out of these, we recently examined SLC22A11 (OAT4). We concluded from a comparison of E3S and uric acid transport that SLC22A11 does not translocate E3S into the cytosol, but into the plasma membrane. Here we present a hyperosmolarity alias hypertonicity assay to differentiate transport mechanisms. Human transporters were expressed heterologously in 293 cells. Solute uptake into intact cells was measured by LC-MS. Addition of mannitol or sucrose led to rapid cell shrinkage, but cell viability after 60 min in hyperosmolar buffer was not impaired. A decrease in substrate accumulation with increasing osmolarity as observed here for several substrates and the transporters SLC22A11, ETT (SLC22A4), OCT2 (SLC22A2), OAT3 (SLC22A8), and MATE1 (SLC47A1) suggests regular substrate translocation into the cytosol. An increase as observed for E3S transport by SLC22A11, OAT3, MATE1, SLC22A9, and SLC10A6 implies insertion into the membrane. In marked contrast to the other E3S transporters, the bile acid transporter SLC10A1 (NTCP, Na+ taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide) showed a decrease in the accumulation of E3S in hyperosmolar buffer; the same was observed with taurocholic acid. Indeed, our data from several functional assays strongly suggest that the transport mechanism is identical for both substrates. Apparently, a unique transport mechanism has been established for SLC10A1 by evolution that ensures the transport of amphipathic, detergent-like molecules into the cytosol.

Abstract
Caveolae are an abundant and characteristic surface feature of many vertebrate cells. The uniform shape of caveolae is characterized by a bulb with consistent curvature connected to the plasma membrane (PM) by a neck region with opposing curvature. Caveolae act in mechanoprotection by flattening in response to increased membrane tension, and their disassembly influences the lipid organization of the PM. Here, we review evidence for caveolae as a specialized lipid domain and speculate on mechanisms that link changes in caveolar shape and/or protein composition to alterations in specific lipid species. We propose that high membrane curvature in specific regions of caveolae can enrich specific lipid species, with consequent changes in their localization upon caveolar flattening. In addition, we suggest how changes in the association of lipid-binding caveolar proteins upon flattening of caveolae could allow release of specific lipids into the bulk PM. We speculate that the caveolae-lipid system has evolved to function as a general stress-sensing and stress-protective membrane domain.

Abstract
The heat shock response (HSR) regulates induction of stress/heat shock proteins (HSPs) to preserve proteostasis during cellular stress. Earlier, our group established that the plasma membrane (PM) acts as a sensor and regulator of HSR through changes in its microdomain organization. PM microdomains such as lipid rafts, dynamic nanoscale assemblies enriched in cholesterol and sphingomyelin, and caveolae, cholesterol-rich PM invaginations, constitute clustering platforms for proteins functional in signaling cascades. Here, we aimed to compare the effect of cyclodextrin (MβCD)- and nystatin-induced cholesterol modulations on stress-activated expression of the representative HSPs, HSP70, and HSP25 in mouse B16-F10 melanoma cells. Depletion of cholesterol levels with MβCD impaired the heat-inducibility of both HSP70 and HSP25. Sequestration of cholesterol with nystatin impaired the heat-inducibility of HSP25 but not of HSP70. Imaging fluorescent correlation spectroscopy marked a modulated lateral diffusion constant of fluorescently labelled cholesterol in PM during cholesterol deprived conditions. Lipidomics analysis upon MβCD treatment revealed, next to cholesterol reductions, decreased lysophosphatidylcholine and phosphatidic acid levels. These data not only highlight the involvement of PM integrity in HSR but also suggest that altered dynamics of specific cholesterol pools could represent a mechanism to fine tune HSP expression.

Abstract
In solid tumours, elevated interstitial fluid pressure (osmotic and hydrostatic pressure) is a barrier to drug delivery and correlates with poor prognosis. Glioblastoma (GBM) further experience compressive force when growing within a space limited by the skull. Caveolae are proposed to play mechanosensing roles, and caveola‐forming proteins are overexpressed in GBM. We asked whether caveolae mediate the GBM response to osmotic pressure. We evaluated in vitro the influence of spontaneous or experimental down‐regulation of caveola‐forming proteins (caveolin‐1, CAVIN1) on the proteolytic profile and invasiveness of GBM cells in response to osmotic pressure. In response to osmotic pressure, GBM cell lines expressing caveola‐forming proteins up‐regulated plasminogen activator (uPA) and/or matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), some EMT markers and increased their in vitro invasion potential. Down‐regulation of caveola‐forming proteins impaired this response and prevented hyperosmolarity‐induced mRNA expression of the water channel aquaporin 1. CRISPR ablation of caveola‐forming proteins further lowered expression of matrix proteases and EMT markers in response to hydrostatic pressure, as a model of mechanical force. GBM respond to pressure by increasing matrix‐degrading enzyme production, mesenchymal phenotype and invasion. Caveola‐forming proteins mediate, at least in part, the pro‐invasive response of GBM to pressure. This may represent a novel target in GBM treatment.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 is strongly expressed in different dermal and subdermal cells and physically interacts with signaling molecules and receptors, among them with transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), matrix metalloproteinases, heat shock proteins, toll-like and glucocorticoid receptors. It should therefore be heavily involved in the regulation of cellular signaling in various hyperproliferative and inflammatory skin conditions. We provide an overview of the role of the caveolin-1 expression in different hyperproliferative and inflammatory skin diseases and discuss its possible active involvement in the therapeutic effects of different well-known drugs widely applied in dermatology. We also discuss the possible role of caveolin expression in development of the drug resistance in dermatology. Caveolin-1 is not only an important pathophysiological factor in different hyperproliferative and inflammatory dermatological conditions, but can also serve as a target for their treatment. Targeted regulation of caveolin is likely to serve as a new treatment strategy in dermatology.

Abstract
Reduced expression of caveolin-1 (Cav-1) is an important pathogenic factor in hypertrophic scarring (HTS). Such a reduction can be found in connection with the main known risk factors for HTS, including dark skin, female gender, young age, burn site and severity of the injury. The degree of overexpression of Cav-1 associated with different therapeutic options for HTS correlates with clinical improvements in HTS. This makes endo- or exogenous induction of Cav-1 not only an important therapeutic target for HTS, but also highlights its use as a preventive target to reduce or avoid HTS formation.

Abstract
Caveolae are 60-80 nm invaginated plasma membrane (PM) nanodomains, with a specific lipid and protein composition, which assist and regulate multiple processes in the plasma membrane-ranging from the organization of signalling complexes to the mechanical adaptation to changes in PM tension. However, since their initial descriptions, these structures have additionally been found tightly linked to internalization processes, mechanoadaptation, to the regulation of signalling events and of endosomal trafficking. Here, we review caveolae biology from this perspective, and its implications for cell physiology and disease.

Caveolin-1 as a pathophysiological factor and target in psoriasis. NPJ Aging Mech Dis 2019; 5:4. [PMID: 30729030 PMCID: PMC6363785 DOI: 10.1038/s41514-019-0034-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2018] [Accepted: 01/03/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Low expression of caveolin-1 (Cav-1) is typical in psoriatic lesions and overexpression of Cav-1 leads to a reduction of inflammation and suppression of epidermal hyperproliferation, thus ameliorating these two well-known hallmarks of psoriasis. At the same time, the interfacial layers of the white adipose tissue (WAT) adjacent to psoriatic lesions demonstrate much higher stiffness, which also points to a modification of Cav-1 expression in this tissue. These processes are connected with each other and regulated via exosomal exchange. Here we discuss the role of Cav-1 expression in inflammatory and hyperproliferative processes and analyze the ways to provide spatially different modulation of Cav-1 expression in the skin and WAT. Such modulation can be induced by different pharmacological and physical factors. These include application of mechanical stress and supra-physiological temperatures. Cav-1 should therefore be considered as an important target in treatment of psoriasis.

Abstract
Membranes are of outmost importance to allow for specific signal transduction due to their ability to localize, amplify, and direct signals. However, due to the double-edged nature of reactive oxygen species (ROS)—toxic at high concentrations but essential signal molecules—subcellular localization of ROS-producing systems to the plasma membrane has been traditionally regarded as a protective strategy to defend cells from unwanted side-effects. Nevertheless, specialized regions, such as lipid rafts and caveolae, house and regulate the activated/inhibited states of important ROS-producing systems and concentrate redox targets, demonstrating that plasma membrane functions may go beyond acting as a securing lipid barrier. This is nicely evinced by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-oxidases (NOX), enzymes whose primary function is to generate ROS and which have been shown to reside in specific lipid compartments. In addition, membrane-inserted bidirectional H2O2-transporters modulate their conductance precisely during the passage of the molecules through the lipid bilayer, ensuring time-scaled delivery of the signal. This review aims to summarize current evidence supporting the role of the plasma membrane as an organizing center that serves as a platform for redox signal transmission, particularly NOX-driven, providing specificity at the same time that limits undesirable oxidative damage in case of malfunction. As an example of malfunction, we explore several pathological situations in which an inflammatory component is present, such as inflammatory bowel disease and neurodegenerative disorders, to illustrate how dysregulation of plasma-membrane-localized redox signaling impacts normal cell physiology.

Abstract
Aberrant oxidative metabolism is one of the hallmarks of cancer. Reactive species overproduction could promote carcinogenesis via inducing genetic mutations and activating oncogenic pathways, and thus, antioxidant therapy was considered as an important strategy for cancer prevention and treatment. Caveolin-1 (Cav-1), a constituent protein of caveolae, has been shown to mediate tumorigenesis and progression through oxidative stress modulation recently. Reactive species could modulate the expression, degradation, posttranslational modifications, and membrane trafficking of Cav-1, while Cav-1-targeted treatments could scavenge the reactive species. More importantly, emerging evidences have indicated that multiple antioxidants could exert antitumor activities in cancer cells and protective activities in normal cells by modulating the Cav-1 pathway. Altogether, these findings indicate that Cav-1 may be a promising oxidative stress-related target for cancer antioxidant prevention. Elucidating the underlying interaction mechanisms between oxidative stress and Cav-1 is helpful for enhancing the preventive effects of antioxidants on cancer, for improving clinical outcomes of antioxidant-related therapeutics in cancer patients, and for developing Cav-1 targeted drugs. Herein, we summarize the available evidence of the roles of Cav-1 and oxidative stress in tumorigenesis and development and shed novel light on designing strategies for cancer prevention or treatment by utilizing the interaction mode between Cav-1 and oxidative stress.

Abstract
Controlling the cellular uptake mechanism and consequent intracellular route of polyplexes is important to improve the transfection efficiency of the non-viral gene delivery. Here, we report a new non-viral vector, polymannitol-based gene transporter (PMT), generated by crosslinking low molecular weight polyethylenimine with mannitol diacrylate, which has low cytotoxicity and good transfection efficiency. Interestingly, the uptake pathway of PMT/DNA complexes was shifted into caveolae-mediated endocytosis, avoiding lysosomal degradation. The mechanism of increased caveolae-mediated endocytosis of PMT/DNA complexes was found to be correlated with mechanosensing signal transduction by the hyperosmotic polymannitol part. Our results suggested that PMT, polymannitol-based gene transporter, is a safe and efficient gene delivery system with a well-modulated uptake pathway and intracellular route for gene therapy.

Abstract
The biology of caveolin-1 (Cav1)/caveolae is intimately linked to actin dynamics and adhesion receptors. Caveolar domains are organized in hierarchical levels of complexity from curved or flattened caveolae to large, higher-order caveolar rosettes. We report that stress fibers controlled by Abl kinases and mDia1 determine the level of caveolar domain organization, which conditions the subsequent inward trafficking of caveolar domains induced upon loss of cell adhesion from the extracellular matrix. Abl-deficient cells have fewer stress fibers, a smaller pool of stress-fiber co-aligned Cav1 and increased clustering of Cav1/caveolae at the cell surface. Defective caveolar linkage to stress fibers prevents the formation of big caveolar rosettes upon loss of cell adhesion, correlating with a lack of inward trafficking. Live imaging of stress fibers and Cav1 showed that the actin-linked Cav1 pool loses its spatial organization in the absence of actin polymerization and is dragged and clustered by depolymerizing filaments. We identified mDia1 as the actin polymerization regulator downstream of Abl kinases that controls the stress-fiber-linked Cav1 pool. mDia1 knockdown results in Cav1/caveolae clustering and defective inward trafficking upon loss of cell adhesion. By contrast, cell elongation imposed by the excess of stress fibers induced by active mDia1 flattens caveolae. Furthermore, active mDia1 rescues the actin co-aligned Cav1 pool and Cav1 inward trafficking upon loss of adhesion in Abl-deficient cells. Thus, caveolar domain organization and trafficking are tightly coupled to adhesive and stress fiber regulatory pathways.

Abstract
Caveolae have been implicated in sensing of cell volume perturbations, yet evidence is still limited and findings contradictory. Here, we investigated the possible role of caveolae in cell volume regulation and volume sensitive signaling in an adipocyte system with high (3T3-L1 adipocytes); intermediate (3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes); and low (cholesterol-depleted 3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes) caveolae levels. Using large-angle light scattering, we show that compared to pre-adipocytes, differentiated adipocytes exhibit several-fold increased rates of volume restoration following osmotic cell swelling (RVD) and osmotic cell shrinkage (RVI), accompanied by increased swelling-activated taurine efflux. However, caveolin-1 distribution was not detectably altered after osmotic swelling or shrinkage, and caveolae integrity, as studied by cholesterol depletion or expression of dominant negative Cav-1, was not required for either RVD or RVI in pre-adipocytes. The insulin receptor (InsR) localizes to caveolae and its expression dramatically increases upon adipocyte differentiation. In pre-adipocytes, InsR and its effectors focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK1/2) localized to focal adhesions and were activated by a 5 min exposure to insulin (100 nM). Osmotic shrinkage transiently inhibited InsR Y(146)-phosphorylation, followed by an increase at t=15 min; a similar pattern was seen for ERK1/2 and FAK, in a manner unaffected by cholesterol depletion. In contrast, cell swelling had no detectable effect on InsR, yet increased ERK1/2 phosphorylation. In conclusion, differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes exhibit greatly accelerated RVD and RVI responses and increased swelling-activated taurine efflux compared to pre-adipocytes. Furthermore, in pre-adipocytes, Cav-1/caveolae integrity is not required for volume regulation. Given the relationship between hyperosmotic stress and insulin signaling, the finding that cell volume regulation is dramatically altered upon adipocyte differentiation may be relevant for the understanding of insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
Caveolae are relatively stable membrane invaginations that compartmentalize signaling, regulate lipid metabolism and mediate viral entry. Caveolae are closely associated with actin fibers and internalize in response to diverse stimuli. Loss of cell adhesion is known to induce rapid and robust caveolae internalization and trafficking toward a Rab11-positive recycling endosome; however, pathways governing this process are poorly understood. Here, we report that filamin A is required to maintain the F-actin-dependent linear distribution of caveolin-1. High spatiotemporal resolution particle tracking of caveolin-1-GFP vesicles by total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy revealed that FLNa is required for the F-actin-dependent arrest of caveolin-1 vesicles in a confined area and their stable anchorage to the plasma membrane. The linear distribution and anchorage of caveolin-1 vesicles are both required for proper caveolin-1 inwards trafficking. De-adhesion-triggered caveolae inward trafficking towards a recycling endosome is impaired in FLNa-depleted HeLa and FLNa-deficient M2-melanoma cells. Inwards trafficking of caveolin-1 requires both the ability of FLNa to bind actin and cycling PKCα-dependent phosphorylation of FLNa on Ser2152 after cell detachment.

Abstract
Caveolae are invaginations of the plasma membrane that are formed by caveolins. Caveolar membranes are also enriched in cholesterol, glycosphingolipids and signaling enzymes such as Src kinase. Here we investigate the effect of cell stretch upon caveolar dynamics and signaling. Transfection of C2 myoblasts with caveolin-3-YFP led to the formation of caveolae-like membrane pits 50-100 nm in diameter. Glycosphingolipids became immobilized and tightly packed together within caveolin-rich regions of the plasma membrane. Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) was used to assess the degree of glycosphingolipid packing. Myoblasts were subjected to a brief (1 minute) stretch on an elastic substratum. Stretch caused a reduction in glycosphingolipid FRET, consistent with a reversible unfolding of caveolar pits in response to membrane tension. Cells expressing caveolin-3-YFP also displayed an enhanced stretch-induced activation of Src kinase, as assessed by immunofluorescence. Repeated stretches resulted in the trafficking and remodeling of caveolin-3-rich membrane domains and accelerated turnover of membrane glycosphingolipids. The stretch-induced unfolding of caveolae, activation of Src and redistribution of caveolin and glycosphingolipids might reflect mechanisms of the cellular adaptation to mechanical stresses.

Abstract
Membrane rafts (MRs) are clusters of lipids, organized in a "quasicrystalline" liquid-order phase, organized on the cell surface and whose pattern of molecules and physicochemical properties are distinct from those of the surrounding plasma membrane. MRs may be considered an efficient and fairly rapid cell-activated mechanism to express or mask surface receptors aimed at triggering specific response pathways. This paper reports observations concerning the role of MRs in the control of lung extravascular water that ought to be kept at minimum to assure gas diffusion, supporting the hypothesis that MRs expression is a potential mechanism of sensing minor changes in the volume of extravascular water. We present the evidence that MRs expression specifically relates to signal-transduction processes evoked by mechanical stimuli arising in the interstitial lung compartment when a small increase in extravascular volume occurs. We further hypothesize that a differential expression of MRs might also reflect the damage to precise components of the extracellular matrix caused by the perturbation in water balance and thus can trigger a molecule-oriented specific matrix remodelling.

Abstract
We present plasma membrane (PM) internalization responses of type I alveolar epithelial cells to a 50 mosmol/l increase in tonicity. Our research is motivated by interest in ATI repair, for which endocytic retrieval of PM appears to be critical. We validated pharmacological and molecular tools to dissect the endocytic machinery of these cells and used these tools to test the hypothesis that osmotic stress triggers a pathway-specific internalization of PM domains. Validation experiments confirmed the fluorescent analogs of lactosyl-ceramide, transferrin, and dextran as pathway-specific cargo of caveolar, clathrin, and fluid-phase uptake, respectively. Pulse-chase experiments indicate that hypertonic exposure causes a downregulation of clathrin and fluid-phase endocytosis while stimulating caveolar endocytosis. The tonicity-mediated increase in caveolar endocytosis was associated with the translocation of caveolin-1 from the PM and was absent in cells that had been transfected with dominant-negative dynamin constructs. In separate experiments we show that hypertonic exposure increases the probability of PM wound repair following micropuncture from 82 ± 4 to 94 ± 2% (P < 0.01) and that this effect depends on Src pathway activation-mediated caveolar endocytosis. The therapeutic and biological implications of our findings are discussed.

Abstract
Mechanical forces are critical for fetal lung development. Using surfactant protein C (SP-C) as a marker, we previously showed that stretch-induced fetal type II cell differentiation is mediated via the ERK pathway. Caveolin-1, a major component of the plasma membrane microdomains, is important as a signaling protein in blood vessels exposed to shear stress. Its potential role in mechanotransduction during fetal lung development is unknown. Caveolin-1 is a marker of type I epithelial cell phenotype. In this study, using immunocytochemistry, Western blotting, and immunogold electron microscopy, we first demonstrated the presence of caveolin-1 in embryonic day 19 (E19) rat fetal type II epithelial cells. By detergent-free purification of lipid raft-rich membrane fractions and fluorescence immunocytochemistry, we found that mechanical stretch translocates caveolin-1 from the plasma membrane to the cytoplasm. Disruption of the lipid rafts with cholesterol-chelating agents further increased stretch-induced ERK activation and SP-C gene expression compared with stretch samples without disruptors. Similar results were obtained when caveolin-1 gene was knocked down by small interference RNA. In contrast, adenovirus overexpression of the wild-type caveolin-1 or delivery of caveolin-1 scaffolding domain peptide inside the cells decreased stretch-induced ERK phosphorylation and SP-C mRNA expression. In conclusion, our data suggest that caveolin-1 is present in E19 fetal type II epithelial cells. Caveolin-1 is translocated from the plasma membrane to the cytoplasm by mechanical stretch and functions as an inhibitory protein in stretch-induced type II cell differentiation via the ERK pathway.

Abstract
Endocytosis is the process by which cells take up macromolecules from the surrounding medium. The best-characterized process is the so-called clathrin-dependent endocytosis, although much is also currently known about clathrin-independent endocytic processes such as those involving caveolae and lipid rafts. An understanding of endocytosis and the cellular trafficking that occurs thereafter has a great deal of relevance to current molecular medicine. Gene therapy, which is presently being investigated for its therapeutic potential in treating immunodeficiency and metabolic diseases, cancer and heart disease, employs a variety of viral and nonviral vectors, which can be delivered to the target cells of the body and are subsequently endocytosed and dissembled. A variety of vectors can be used to deliver genes to organs in vivo or cells ex vivo. Various routes of vector delivery have been investigated. The mechanisms by which vectors such as adenoviruses, adeno-associated viruses, retroviruses and liposomes enter the cell are increasingly being investigated as the effort to increase the efficiency of gene therapy continues. This review focuses on mechanisms of endocytosis and how they relate to the internal trafficking of viral and nonviral vectors in gene therapy.

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

Abstract
We evaluated the response to mild hypoxia exposure of A549 alveolar human cells and of a continuous alveolar cell line from human excised lungs (A30) exposed to 5% O(2) for 5 and 24 h. No signs of increased peroxidation and of early apoptosis were detected. After 24 h of hypoxia total cell proteins/DNA ratio decreased significantly by about 20%. Similarly, we found a decrease in membrane phospholipid and cholesterol content. The membrane fluidity assessed by fluorescence anisotropy measurements was unchanged. We also prepared the detergent resistant membrane fraction (DRM) to analyze the distribution of the two types of lipid microdomains, caveolae and lipid rafts. The DRM content of Cav-1, marker of caveolae, was decreased, while CD55, marker of lipid rafts, increased in both cell lines. Total content of these markers in the membranes was unchanged indicating remodelling of their distribution between detergent-resistant and detergent-soluble fraction of the cellular membrane. The changes in protein markers distribution did not imply changes in the corresponding mRNA, except in the case of Cav-1 for A30 line. In the latter case we found a parallel decrease in Cav-1 and in the corresponding mRNA. We conclude that an exposure to a mild degree of hypoxia triggers a significant remodelling of the lipid microdomains expression, confirming that they are highly dynamic structures providing a prompt signalling platform to changes of the pericellular microenvironment.

Abstract
Cells have a complex system for delivering and compartmentalizing proteins and lipids in order to achieve spatio-temporal coordination of signaling. Rafts/caveolae are plasma membrane microdomains that regulate signaling pathways and processes such as cell migration, polarization and proliferation. Regulation of raft/caveolae trafficking involves multiple steps regulated by different proteins to ensure coordination of signaling cascades. The best studied raft-mediated endocytic route is controlled by caveolins. Recent data suggest integrin-mediated cell adhesion is a key regulator of caveolar endocytosis. In this review we examine the regulation of caveolar trafficking and the interplay between integrins, cell adhesion and caveolae internalization.

Abstract
Recent studies of the distribution and relative concentration of caveolin-1 in fractions of bovine lens epithelial and fiber cells have led to the novel concept that caveolin-1 may largely exist as a peripheral membrane protein in some cells. Caveolin-1 is typically viewed as a scaffolding protein for caveolae in plasma membrane. In this study, membrane from cultured bovine lens epithelial cells and bovine lens fiber cells were divided into urea soluble and insoluble fractions. Cytosolic lipid vesicles were also recovered from the lens epithelial cells. Lipid-raft domains were recovered from fiber cells following treatment with detergents and examined for caveolin and lipid content. Aliquots of all fractions were Western blotted for caveolin-1. Fluorescence microscopy and double immunofluorescence labeling were used to examine the distribution of caveolin-1 in cultured epithelial cells. Electron micrographs revealed an abundance of caveolae in plasma membrane of cultured lens epithelial cells. About 60% of the caveolin-1 in the epithelial-crude membrane was soluble in urea, a characteristic of peripheral membrane proteins. About 30% of the total was urea-insoluble membrane protein that likely supports the structure of caveolae. The remaining caveolin was part of cytosolic lipid vesicles. By contrast, most caveolin in the bovine lens fiber cell membrane was identified as intrinsic protein, being present at relatively low concentrations in caveolae-free lipid raft domains enriched in cholesterol and sphingomyelin. We estimate that these domains occupied 25-30% of the fiber cell membrane surface. Thus, the status of caveolin-1 in lens epithelial cells appears markedly different from that in fiber cells.

Placenta 2007; 28:139-51.

Abstract
Lipid rafts are detergent-insoluble, low-density membrane domains that are rich in cholesterol and sphingolipids; caveolae are a subdomain of the biochemically defined glycolipid raft whose expression is associated with the protein caveolin-1. This protein associates with numerous signalling molecules, regulating their activity by holding them inactive. Human villous cytotrophoblasts contain caveolin-1, but levels reduce greatly during their differentiation into syncytiotrophoblast. Since caveolin-1 is a known regulator of apoptosis and trophoblast syncytialisation involves the apoptotic cascade, we hypothesised that cytotrophoblast caveolin-1 may also play a role in regulating fusion events involved in syncytium formation. The BeWo choriocarcinoma cell line has previously proved valuable for studying trophoblast syncytialisation, hence the present work was carried out to determine whether BeWo cells could be used as a model for the exploration of caveolin-1's role in regulating the syncytialisation process. Undifferentiated BeWo cells were found to express caveolin-1 in similar amounts to villous cytotrophoblasts isolated from term placenta. Lipid raft fractions prepared from these BeWo cells at confluence contained the raft-associated proteins caveolin-1 and -2, flotillin-1 and -2, stomatin and the heterotrimeric G protein, Galphaq. Confocal immunofluorescence studies revealed that caveolin-1 is internalized to the mitochondria, but not to the Golgi or endoplasmic reticulum, in subconfluent BeWo and that the protein relocates to the plasma membrane upon confluence, an observation confirmed by caveolin-1 and cytochrome c Western blotting of lipid raft fractions and mitochondria purified from confluent and subconfluent cells. Western blotting and immunofluorescence experiments comparing undifferentiated cells and those induced to differentiate using the cAMP analogue, dibutyryl cAMP, showed that BeWo syncytialisation was accompanied by a reduction in caveolin-1 levels, similar to the situation in primary villous cytotrophoblasts. Confluent, undifferentiated BeWo cultures were then used to investigate the cellular localisation of Rock-1, a protein which promotes cytoskeletal re-organisation important for syncytialisation and apoptosis. Its association with caveolin-1 was evidenced by the demonstration that the 160kDa proenzyme form of Rock-1 co-immunoprecipitates with caveolin-1 and vice versa, as well as by the co-localisation of the two proteins at the plasma membrane, as shown in immunofluorescence studies. A proportion of the total cell Rock-1 content was found in BeWo lipid raft fractions, confirming its membrane presence in confluent cells. This close association of plasmalemmal caveolin-1 with Rock-1 protein raises the possibility that caveolin-1 may regulate Rock-1 in these trophoblasts. We conclude that cell-cell contact is required for BeWo trophoblast to exhibit plasmalemmal caveolin-1; BeWo cells at confluence offer a useful model for the study of trophoblast raft behaviour during syncytialisation and for the exploration of the potential Rock-1-regulating role of caveolin-1 in this process.

Abstract
Using the new alveolar epithelial type I-like cell line R3/1 derived from fetal rat lung, we studied the distribution of connexin43 and caveolin-1 under conditions of bleomycin-induced injury in vitro. We show that under normal as well as under conditions of injury, endogenous connexin43 does not directly interact with endogenous caveolin-1 as revealed by immunofluorescence, glutathione S-transferase/caveolin-1 "pull down" assay, and co-immunoprecipitation experiments. The assessment of Triton X-100 solubility revealed that caveolin-1 was abundant in detergent-resistant membrane fractions. This is consistent with the localization of caveolin-1 in the lipid rafts/caveolae. Similarly, phosphorylated connexin43 was preferably detected in the Triton-insoluble fraction. Using a sucrose gradient we demonstrated that the majority of phosphorylated connexin43 colocalizes with caveolin-1 in lipid rafts, whereas all other forms of connexin43 remain in the bulk of cellular membranes and cytosolic proteins. Triton solubility assessment of bleomycin-treated cells revealed no differences in the caveolin-1 and connexin43 distribution. A further interesting outcome of our study is the shift of caveolin-1 from the lipid raft/caveolae fractions to the non-caveolar fractions after bleomycin treatment indicating an intracellular retention of caveolin-1. This result suggests the possibility that the translocation of caveolin-1 could be an important event regulating the metabolism of alveolar epithelial lung cells after injury.

Abstract
Flask-shaped vesicles have been described as caveolae in mesothelial cells in a number of animal species based on morphological criteria only. Using an antibody against caveolin-1, said to be a biochemical marker of caveolae, immunoelectron microscopy suggests that many but not all such vesicles in mesothelial cells are caveolae. Mesothelial cells from different anatomical sites showed obvious variations in both the population density and distribution of these flask-shaped vesicles and in their density of immunostaining. Lung and pericardial sac had the highest staining density. In some sites (e.g., lung, bladder, colon) caveolae were equally distributed between apical and basolateral surfaces, whereas in others (e.g., spleen, liver), they were predominantly apical. Additional immunopositive sites in the peritoneal membrane were identified, including the epineurium of peripheral nerves and the endothelium of lymphatic vessels. We further suggest that variations in the number of mesothelial cell caveolae and the density of their immunolabeling may have implications for our understanding of certain diseases such as malignant mesothelioma, especially in view of the recent hypothesis that it may be caused by SV40, a virus that appears to enter cells via caveolae.

Abstract
Mechanical stress contributes to vascular disease related to hypertension. Activation of ERK is key to mediating cellular proliferation and vascular remodeling in response to stretch stress. However, the mechanism by which stretch mediates ERK activation in the vascular tissue is still unclear. Caveolin, a major component of a flasklike invaginated caveolae, acts as an adaptor protein for an integrin-mediated signaling pathway. We found that cyclic stretch transiently induced translocation of caveolin from caveolae to noncaveolar membrane sites in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). This translocation of caveolin was determined by detergent solubility, sucrose gradient fractionation, and immunocytochemistry. Cyclic stretch induced ERK activation; the activity peaked at 5 min (the early phase), decreased gradually, but persisted up to 120 min (the late phase). Disruption of caveolae by methyl-beta-cyclodextrin, decreasing the caveolar caveolin and accumulating the noncaveolar caveolin, enhanced ERK activation in both the early and late phases. When endogenous caveolins were downregulated, however, the late-phase ERK activation was subsided completely. Caveolin, which was translocated to noncaveolar sites in response to stretch, is associated with beta1-integrins as well as with Fyn and Shc, components required for ERK activation. Taken together, caveolin in caveolae may keep ERK inactive, but when caveolin is translocated to noncaveolar sites in response to stretch stress, caveolin mediates stretch-induced ERK activation through an association with beta1-integrins/Fyn/Shc. We suggest that stretch-induced translocation of caveolin to noncaveolar sites plays an important role in mediating stretch-induced ERK activation in VSMCs.

Abstract
Oxidative stress underlies a range of pathophysiological conditions. Reactive oxygen species are also generated intracellularly to serve as second messengers and some are linked to caveolae/raft signalling systems. The effect of oxidative stress on caveolin-1 expression, post-translational modifications, membrane trafficking and function are described.

Abstract
Caveolae are flask-shaped invaginations present in the plasma membrane of many cell types. They have long been implicated in endocytosis, transcytosis, and cell signaling. Recent work has confirmed that caveolae are directly involved in the internalization of membrane components (glycosphingolipids and glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins), extracellular ligands (folic acid, albumin, autocrine motility factor), bacterial toxins (cholera toxin, tetanus toxin), and several nonenveloped viruses (Simian virus 40, Polyoma virus). Unlike clathrin-mediated endocytosis, internalization through caveolae is a triggered event that involves complex signaling. The mechanism of internalization and the subsequent intracellular pathways that the internalized substances take are starting to emerge.

Abstract
Simian virus 40 (SV40) utilizes endocytosis through caveolae for infectious entry into host cells. We found that after binding to caveolae, virus particles induced transient breakdown of actin stress fibers. Actin was then recruited to virus-loaded caveolae as actin patches that served as sites for actin "tail" formation. Dynamin II was also transiently recruited. These events depended on the presence of cholesterol and on the activation of tyrosine kinases that phosphorylated proteins in caveolae. They were necessary for formation of caveolae-derived endocytic vesicles and for infection of the cell. Thus, caveolar endocytosis is ligand-triggered and involves extensive rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton.

Abstract
During normal and pathological conditions, endothelial cells (ECs) are subjected to locally generated reactive oxygen species, produced by themselves or by other vessel wall cells. In excess these molecules cause oxidative injury to the cell but at moderate levels they might modulate intracellular signalling pathways. We have investigated the effect of oxidative stress on the palmitoylation and trafficking of caveolin-1 in bovine aortic ECs. Exogenous H2O2 did not alter the intracellular localization of caveolin-1 in ECs. However, metabolic labelling experiments showed that H2O2 inhibited the trafficking of newly synthesized caveolin-1 to membrane raft domains. Several mechanisms potentially responsible for this inhibition were examined. Impairment of caveolin-1 synthesis by H2O2 was not responsible for diminished trafficking. Similarly, the inhibition was independent of H2O2-induced caveolin-1 phosphorylation as shown by the markedly different concentration dependences. We tested the effect of H2O2 on palmitoylation of caveolin-1 by the incorporation of [3H]palmitic acid. Exposure of ECs to H2O2 markedly inhibited the palmitoylation of caveolin-1. Comparable inhibition was observed after treatment of cells with H2O2 delivered either as a bolus or by continuous delivery with glucose and glucose oxidase. Kinetic studies showed that H2O2 did not alter the rate of caveolin-1 depalmitoylation but instead decreased the 'on-rate' of palmitoylation. Together these results show for the first time the modulation of protein palmitoylation by oxidative stress, and suggest a cellular mechanism by which stress might influence caveolin-1-dependent cell activities such as the concentration of signalling proteins and cholesterol trafficking.

Abstract
Caveolae, the flask-shaped membrane invaginations abundant in endothelial cells, have acquired a prominent role in signal transduction. Evidence, that events occurring in caveolae participate in cell survival and angiogenesis, has been recently substantiated by the identification of two novel caveolar constituents: prostacyclin synthase (PGIS) and the cellular form of prion protein (PrP(c)). We have shown that PGIS, previously described as an endoplasmic reticulum component, is bound to caveolin-1 (cav-1) and localized in caveolae in human endothelial cells. By generating prostacyclin, PGIS is involved in angiogenesis. Previous observations regarding the localization of PrP(c) in caveolae-like membrane domains (CLDs) have been recently confirmed and extended. It has been demonstrated that PrP(c) is bound to cav-1 and, by recruiting Fyn kinase, can participate in signal transduction events connected to cell survival and differentiation. The new entries of PGIS and PrP(c) in caveolar components place caveolae and CLDs at the centre of a network, where cells decide whether to proliferate or differentiate and whether to survive or to suicide by apoptosis.

Abstract
In vascular cells, prostacyclin (PGI2) synthase (PGI2s) has been localized in the endoplasmic reticulum of endothelial cells and in the nuclear and plasma membrane of smooth muscle cells. In human umbilical vein endothelial (HUVE) cells, we detected the enzyme in abundant cytoplasmic vesicles apparently originating from the plasma membrane and similar to those stained by gold-albumin, which interacts with a caveolar receptor. This prompted us to try a direct confocal microscopy approach aimed at colocalizing gold-albumin, caveolin-1, and PGI2 synthase. Moreover, the staining of HUVE cells with an anti-BiP7Grp78 antibody (a marker of endoplasmic reticulum) shows a perinuclear localization, sharply separated from PGI2 synthase localization. The results indicate that more than 80% of the enzyme resides in cellular sites costaining with caveolin-1 antibody and gold-albumin. This evidence was confirmed by the demonstration that PGI2 synthase and caveolin-1 coimmunoprecipitate in HUVE cell lysates and that they are associated to detergent-insoluble membrane domains in the same low-density fractions of a sucrose gradient. In addition, depletion of cellular cholesterol by mevalonate and methyl-beta-cyclodextrin leads to the shift of PGI2 synthase and caveolin-1 to higher density fractions of the gradient. Biochemical evidence about colocalization was supported by the use of a fusion protein glutathione S-transferase (GST)/caveolin-1, which retained either PGI2s purified from ram seminal vesicles or PGI2s present in HUVE cell lysates. Binding of PGI2s to caveolin "scaffolding domain" and to C-terminal region was deduced by using full-length GST--Cav-1, GST--Cav 61--101, and GST C- and N-terminal fusion proteins. A double approach based on the usage of filipin as a specific caveolae-disrupting agent and antisense oligonucleotides targeting PGI2 synthase mRNA suggests that the production of PGI2 in caveolae is likely to be connected to the regulation of angiogenesis, at least in vitro.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 is a palmitoylated protein involved in assembly of signaling molecules in plasma membrane subdomains termed caveolae and in intracellular cholesterol transport. Three cysteine residues in the C terminus of caveolin-1 are subject to palmitoylation, which is not necessary for caveolar targeting of caveolin-1. Protein palmitoylation is a post-translational and reversible modification that may be regulated and that in turn may regulate conformation, membrane association, protein-protein interactions, and intracellular localization of the target protein. We have undertaken a detailed analysis of [(3)H]palmitate incorporation into caveolin-1 in aortic endothelial cells. The linkage of palmitate to caveolin-1 was hydroxylamine-sensitive and thus presumably a thioester bond. However, contrary to expectations, palmitate incorporation was blocked completely by the protein synthesis inhibitors cycloheximide and puromycin. In parallel experiments to show specificity, palmitoylation of aortic endothelial cell-specific nitric-oxide synthase was unaffected by these reagents. Inhibitors of protein trafficking, brefeldin A and monensin, blocked caveolin-1 palmitoylation, indicating that the modification was not cotranslational but rather required caveolin-1 transport from the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi to the plasma membrane. In addition, immunophilin chaperones that form complexes with caveolin-1, i.e. FK506-binding protein 52, cyclophilin A, and cyclophilin 40, were not necessary for caveolin-1 palmitoylation because agents that bind immunophilins did not inhibit palmitoylation. Pulse-chase experiments showed that caveolin-1 palmitoylation is essentially irreversible because the release of [(3)H]palmitate was not significant even after 24 h. These results show that [(3)H]palmitate incorporation is limited to newly synthesized caveolin-1, not because incorporation only occurs during synthesis but because the continuous presence of palmitate on caveolin-1 prevents subsequent repalmitoylation.
