Upregulation of the secretory pathway Ca 2+/Mn 2+-ATPase isoform 1 in LPS-stimulated microglia and its involvement in Mn 2+-induced Golgi fragmentation. Glia 2024; 72:1201-1214.

Abstract
Microglia play an important protective role in the healthy nervous tissue, being able to react to a variety of stimuli that induce different intracellular cascades for specific tasks. Ca2+ signaling can modulate these pathways, and we recently reported that microglial functions depend on the endoplasmic reticulum as a Ca2+ store, which involves the Ca2+ transporter SERCA2b. Here, we investigated whether microglial functions may also rely on the Golgi, another intracellular Ca2+ store that depends on the secretory pathway Ca2+/Mn2+-transport ATPase isoform 1 (SPCA1). We found upregulation of SPCA1 upon lipopolysaccharide stimulation of microglia BV2 cells and primary microglia, where alterations of the Golgi ribbon were also observed. Silencing and overexpression experiments revealed that SPCA1 affects cell morphology, Golgi apparatus integrity, and phagocytic functions. Since SPCA1 is also an efficient Mn2+ transporter and considering that Mn2+ excess causes manganism in the brain, we addressed the role of microglial SPCA1 in Mn2+ toxicity. Our results revealed a clear effect of Mn2+ excess on the viability and morphology of microglia. Subcellular analysis showed Golgi fragmentation and subsequent alteration of SPCA1 distribution from early stages of toxicity. Removal of Mn2+ by washing improved the culture viability, although it did not effectively reverse Golgi fragmentation. Interestingly, pretreatment with curcumin maintained microglia cultures viable, prevented Mn2+-induced Golgi fragmentation, and preserved SPCA Ca2+-dependent activity, suggesting curcumin as a potential protective agent against Mn2+-induced Golgi alterations in microglia.

Abstract
Metal ion-membrane interactions have gained appreciable attention over the years resulting in increasing investigations into the mode of action of toxic and essential metals. More work has focused on essential ions like Ca or Mg and toxic metals like Cd and Pb, whereas this study investigates the effects of the abundant essential trace metal manganese with model lipid systems by screening zwitterionic and anionic glycerophospholipids. Despite its essentiality, deleterious impact towards cell survival is known under Mn stress. The fluorescent dyes Laurdan and diphenylhexatriene were used to assess changes in membrane fluidity both in the head group and hydrophobic core region of the membrane, respectively. Mn-rigidified membranes composed of the anionic phospholipids, phosphatidic acid, phosphatidylglycerol, cardiolipin, and phosphatidylserine. Strong binding resulted in large shifts of the phase transition temperature. The increase was in the order phosphatidylserine > phosphatidylglycerol > cardiolipin, and in all cases, saturated analogues > mono-unsaturated forms. Dynamic light scattering measurements revealed that Mn caused extensive aggregation of liposomes composed of saturated analogues of phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylserine, whilst the mono-unsaturated analogue had significant membrane swelling. Increased membrane rigidity may interfere with permeability of ions and small molecules, possibly disrupting cellular homeostasis. Moreover, liposome size changes could indicate fusion, which could also be detrimental to cellular transport. Overall, this study provided further understanding into the effects of Mn with biomembranes, whereby the altered membrane properties are consequential to the proper structural and signalling functions of membrane lipids.

Abstract
Despite being an essential trace element with great importance for vital metabolic activities, the manganese (Mn) can also cause damage to organ systems. However, data on the effect of this metal on the male reproductive system are limited, especially using relevant doses to human exposure. The present study aimed to evaluate and compare the effects of Mn exposure on the testicular structure of mice. Three experiments were conducted: (I) direct exposure to realistic doses (0.013, 0.13, and 1.3 mg/kg/day of MnCl2); (II) parental and direct exposure to realistic doses (as in experiment I), where the animals were exposed during intrauterine development and from lactation until reproductive maturity; (III) direct exposure to high doses (15, 30, and 60 mg/kg/day of MnCl2). Biometric, histopathological, histomorphometric and stereological parameters of the testis were evaluated, in addition to sperm morphology. Bioinformatic analyses were performed to identify potential Mn binding sites in 3β-HSD and P450ssc, as well as their protein-protein interaction network. The results obtained were compared using the integrated biomarker response index (IBR). There was an increase of seminiferous tubules pathologies in all experimental conditions tested, with effects on tubular volume, as well as a reduction in tubular diameter. The IBR analyses showed that parental and direct exposure had a significant negative effect on the testicular structure due to the exposure of this metal to sensitive periods of animal development. This study suggests that Mn has the potential to alter the morphological parameters of the testes, affecting the spermatogenesis in mice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Familial benign chronic pemphigus, also known as Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD), is a clinically rare bullous Dermatosis. However the mechanism has not been clarified. The study aim to detect novel mutations in exons of ATP2C1 gene in HHD patients; to explore the possible mechnism of HHD pathogenesis by examining the expression profile of hSPCA1, miR-203, p63, Notch1 and HKII proteins in the skin lesions of HHD patients. METHODS Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood of HHD patients. All exons of ATP2C1 gene in HHD patients were amplified by PCR and the products were purified and sequenced. All related signaling proteins of interest were stained by using skin lesion tissues from HHD patients and miR-203 levels were also determined. RESULTS One synonymous mutation c.G2598A (in exon 26), one nonsense mutation c.C635A and two missense mutations c.C1286A (p.A429D) and c. A1931G (p. D644G) were identified. The nonsense mutation changed codon UCG to stop codon UAG, causing a premature polypeptide chain of the functional region A. The two missense mutations were located in the region P (phosphorylation region) and the Mn binding site of hSPCA1. The level of hSPCA1 was significantly decreased in HHD patients compared to the normal human controls, accompanied by an increase of miR-203 level and a decrease of p63 and HKII levels. CONCLUSION In our study, we found four mutations in HHD. Meanwhile we found increase of miR-203 level and a decrease of p63 and HKII levels. In addition, Notch1, which was negatively regulated p63, is downregulated. These factors may be involved in the signaling pathways of HHD pathogenesis. Our data showed that both p63 and miR-203 may have significant regulatory effects on Notch1 in the skin.

Abstract
Manganese (Mn) is an essential element necessary for proper development and brain function. Circulating Mn levels are regulated by hepatobiliary clearance to limit toxic levels and prevent tissue deposition. To characterize mechanisms involved in hepatocyte Mn uptake, polarized human HepaRG cells were used for this study. Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence microscopy showed the Mn transporter ZIP14 was expressed and localized to the basolateral surface of polarized HepaRG cells. HepaRG cells took up 54Mn in a time- and temperature-dependent manner but uptake was reduced after exposure to Mn. This loss in transport activity was associated with decreased ZIP14 protein levels in response to Mn exposure. Mn-induced degradation of ZIP14 was blocked by bafilomycin A1, which increased localization of the transporter in Lamp1-positive vesicles. Mn exposure also down-regulated the Golgi proteins TMEM165 and GPP130 while the ER stress marker BiP was induced. These results indicate that Mn exposure decreases ZIP14 protein levels to limit subsequent uptake of Mn as a cytoprotective response. Thus, high levels of Mn may compromise first-pass-hepatic clearance mechanisms.

Abstract
Heavy metals are widely recognized as toxic components in urban air particulate matter (PM). However, the major toxic metals and their interactions are poorly understood. In this study, we attempted to explore the toxicity contribution and combined effects of PM-bounded metals in human lung epithelial cells (A549). Real-time cell analysis indicated that the critical toxic concentration (EC50) of PM detected in this study was 107.90 mg/L (r2 = 1.00, p < 0.01). The cell viability of A549 increased significantly (12.3%) after metal removal in PM, demonstrating an important contribution of metal components to PM toxicity. Among eleven elements examined (Zn, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, As, Se, Sr, Cd, and Pb), six heavy metals (Zn, Cr, Mn, Fe, Cu, and Pb) might account for PM toxicity in A549 cells, and their co-exposure led to a high mortality of A549 cells (36.5 ± 7.3%). For combination treatments, cell mortality caused by single or multiple metal mixtures was usually alleviated by Fe addition, while it was often aggravated in the presence of Mn. The varying effects of other metals (Zn, Cu, Pb and Cr) on different metal mixtures might be explained by their interactions (e.g., similar or dissimilar membrane transporters and intracellular targets). Furthermore, the concentration addition model (CA), independent action model (IA), integrated addition model (IAM) and integrated addition and interaction model (IAI) were used to predict mixture toxicity, and the IAI model exhibited the least variation between observed and predicted toxic effects (r2 = 0.87, p < 0.01). Our results highlight the potential contribution from heavy metals and their interactions to PM toxicity, and promote the application of toxicity prediction models on metal components in PM.

Abstract
Plasma membrane vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) activity of tumor cells is a major factor in control of cytoplasmic and extracellular pH and metastatic potential, but the isoforms involved and the factors governing plasma membrane recruitment remain uncertain. Here, we examined expression, distribution, and activity of V-ATPase isoforms in invasive prostate adenocarcinoma (PC-3) cells. Isoforms 1 and 3 were the most highly expressed forms of membrane subunit a, with a1 and a3 the dominant plasma membrane isoforms. Correlation between plasma membrane V-ATPase activity and invasiveness was limited, but RNAi knockdown of either a isoform did slow cell proliferation and inhibit invasion in vitro. Isoform a1 was recruited to the cell surface from the early endosome-recycling complex pathway, its knockdown arresting transferrin receptor recycling. Isoform a3 was associated with the late endosomal/lysosomal compartment. Both a isoforms associated with accessory protein Ac45, knockdown of which stalled transit of a1 and transferrin-transferrin receptor, decreased proton efflux, and reduced cell growth and invasiveness; this latter effect was at least partly due to decreased delivery of the membrane-bound matrix metalloproteinase MMP-14 to the plasma membrane. These data indicate that in prostatic carcinoma cells, a1 and a3 isoform populations predominate in different compartments where they maintain different luminal pH. Ac45 plays a central role in navigating the V-ATPase to the plasma membrane, and hence it is an important factor in expression of the invasive phenotype.

Abstract
The E3 transcription unit of human species C adenoviruses (Ads) encodes immunomodulatory proteins that mediate direct protection of infected cells. Recently, we described a novel immunomodulatory function for E3/49K, an E3 protein uniquely expressed by species D Ads. E3/49K of Ad19a/Ad64, a serotype that causes epidemic keratokonjunctivitis, is synthesized as a highly glycosylated type I transmembrane protein that is subsequently cleaved, resulting in secretion of its large ectodomain (sec49K). sec49K binds to CD45 on leukocytes, impairing activation and functions of natural killer cells and T cells. E3/49K is localized in the Golgi/trans-Golgi network (TGN), in the early endosomes, and on the plasma membrane, yet the cellular compartment where E3/49K is cleaved and the protease involved remained elusive. Here we show that TGN-localized E3/49K comprises both newly synthesized and recycled molecules. Full-length E3/49K was not detected in late endosomes/lysosomes, but the C-terminal fragment accumulated in this compartment at late times of infection. Inhibitor studies showed that cleavage occurs in a post-TGN compartment and that lysosomotropic agents enhance secretion. Interestingly, the cytoplasmic tail of E3/49K contains two potential sorting motifs, YXXΦ (where Φ represents a bulky hydrophobic amino acid) and LL, that are important for binding the clathrin adaptor proteins AP-1 and AP-2in vitro Surprisingly, mutating the LL motif, either alone or together with YXXΦ, did not prevent proteolytic processing but increased cell surface expression and secretion. Upon brefeldin A treatment, cell surface expression was rapidly lost, even for mutants lacking all known endocytosis motifs. Together with immunofluorescence data, we propose a model for intracellular E3/49K transport whereby cleavage takes place on the cell surface by matrix metalloproteases.

Abstract
Manganese (Mn) is an essential metal commonly found in the environment and is used for industrial purposes. Exposure to excessively high Mn levels may induce neurotoxicity referred to as manganism. This work was conducted to study the effect of manganese on the olfactory bulb of adult male albino rat and the possible protective role of meloxicam. Forty adult male albino rats were equally divided into four groups: control group, meloxicam-treated group (5 mg/kg/day orally for 4 weeks), MnCl2-treated group (10 mg/kg/day orally for 4 weeks), and the fourth group received both meloxicam and MnCl2 at the same doses and duration. Specimens of the olfactory bulbs were prepared for light and electron microscopy. An immunohistochemical study with a quantitative morphometry was performed using antibodies against glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). The control group and meloxicam-treated group showed the same normal structure. MnCl2-treated group showed shrinkage of mitral nerve cells with dark peripheral nuclei as well as disorganization of mitral and granule nerve cells. The surrounding neuropil showed vacuolar spaces. Ultrastructurally, the mitral cells showed accumulation of lysosomes, swelling of mitochondria and irregularity of the nuclei. The nerve fibers contained swollen mitochondria with splitting and irregularity of the surrounding myelin sheaths. GFAP immunoreaction showed a highly significant increase compared to control group. On the other hand, the group that received both meloxicam and MnCl2 showed less marked histological changes. It was concluded that manganese induced structural changes in the olfactory bulb of albino rat that were ameliorated by concomitant use of meloxicam.

Abstract
Excess Mn(2+) in humans causes a neurological disorder known as manganism, which shares symptoms with Parkinson's disease. However, the cellular mechanisms underlying Mn(2+) -neurotoxicity and the involvement of Mn(2+) -transporters in cellular homeostasis and repair are poorly understood and require further investigation. In this work, we have analyzed the effect of Mn(2+) on neurons and glia from mice in primary cultures. Mn(2+) overload compromised survival of both cell types, specifically affecting cellular integrity and Golgi organization, where the secretory pathway Ca(2+) /Mn(2+) -ATPase is localized. This ATP-driven Mn(2+) transporter might take part in Mn(2+) accumulation/detoxification at low loads of Mn(2+) , but its ATPase activity is inhibited at high concentration of Mn(2+) . Glial cells appear to be significantly more resistant to this toxicity than neurons and their presence in cocultures provided some protection to neurons against degeneration induced by Mn(2+) . Interestingly, the Mn(2+) toxicity was partially reversed upon Mn(2+) removal by wash out or by the addition of EDTA as a chelating agent, in particular in glial cells. These studies provide data on Mn(2+) neurotoxicity and may contribute to explore new therapeutic approaches for reducing Mn(2+) poisoning.

Abstract
The role of hypoxia on endothelial cell function and response to growth factors is unknown. Here, we tested the hypothesis that hypoxia re-programs endothelial function by modulating vascular endothelial growth factor receptor levels which in turn alter intracellular signaling and cell function. Hypoxia stimulated VEGF-A and VEGFR1 expression but decreased VEGFR2 levels in endothelial cells. During hypoxia, plasma membrane VEGFR1 levels were elevated whereas VEGFR2 levels were depleted. One functional consequence of hypoxia is a reduction in VEGF-A-stimulated and VEGFR2-regulated intracellular signaling including lowered endothelial nitric oxide synthase activation. Venous, arterial and capillary endothelial cells subjected to hypoxia all exhibited reduced cell migration in response to VEGF-A. A mechanistic explanation is that VEGFR1:VEGFR2 ratio is substantially increased during hypoxia to block VEGF-A-stimulated and VEGFR2-regulated endothelial responses to maximize cell viability and recovery.

Abstract
Chronic exposure to manganese results in neurological symptoms referred to as manganism and is identified as a risk factor for Parkinson's disease. In vitro, manganese induces cell death in the dopaminergic cells, but the mechanisms of manganese cytotoxicity are still unexplained. In particular, the subcellular distribution of manganese and its interaction with other trace elements needed to be assessed. Applying synchrotron X-ray fluorescence nanoimaging, we found that manganese was located within the Golgi apparatus of PC12 dopaminergic cells at physiologic concentrations. At increasing concentrations, manganese accumulates within the Golgi apparatus until cytotoxic concentrations are reached resulting in a higher cytoplasmic content probably after the Golgi apparatus storage capacity is exceeded. Cell exposure to manganese and brefeldin A, a molecule known to specifically cause the collapse of the Golgi apparatus, results in the striking intracellular redistribution of manganese, which accumulates in the cytoplasm and the nucleus. These results indicate that the Golgi apparatus plays an important role in the cellular detoxification of manganese. In addition manganese exposure induces a decrease in total iron content, which could contribute to the overall neurotoxicity.

Abstract
Manganese is an essential element that is also neurotoxic at elevated exposure. However, mechanisms regulating Mn homeostasis in mammalian cells are largely unknown. Because increases in cytosolic Mn induce rapid changes in the localization of proteins involved in regulating intracellular Mn concentrations in yeast, we were intrigued to discover that low concentrations of extracellular Mn induced rapid redistribution of the mammalian cis-Golgi glycoprotein Golgi phosphoprotein of 130 kDa (GPP130) to multivesicular bodies. GPP130 was subsequently degraded in lysosomes. The Mn-induced trafficking of GPP130 occurred from the Golgi via a Rab-7-dependent pathway and did not require its transit through the plasma membrane or early endosomes. Although the cytoplasmic domain of GPP130 was dispensable for its ability to respond to Mn, its lumenal stem domain was required and it had to be targeted to the cis-Golgi for the Mn response to occur. Remarkably, the stem domain was sufficient to confer Mn sensitivity to another cis-Golgi protein. Our results identify the stem domain of GPP130 as a novel Mn sensor in the Golgi lumen of mammalian cells.

Abstract
The Menkes disease ATPase (MNK) is a copper transporter that localizes to the mammalian trans-Golgi network (TGN) and shows substantial co-localization wih a ubiquitous TGN resident protein and marker, TGN46. We tested our hypothesis that these two TGN residents and integral membrane proteins are localized to biochemically distinct TGN sub-compartments using constitutively active mutant proteins and drugs that disrupt membrane traffic, lumenal pH and the cellular cytoskeleton. The pH-disrupting agent, monensin, causes MNK to be more diffusely distributed with partial separation of staining patterns for these two TGN residents. Expression of a constitutively active Rho-kinase (ROCK-KIN), which causes formation of juxta-nuclear astral actin arrays, also effects separation of MNK and TGN46 staining patterns. Treatment of ROCK-KIN expressing cells with latrunculin B, an actin-depolymerizing agent, causes complete overlap of MNK and TGN46 staining patterns with concomitant disappearance of polymerized actin. When microtubules are depolymerized in ROCK-KIN expressing cells by nocodazole, both MNK and TGN46 are found in puncate structures throughout the cell. However, a substantial proportion of MNK is still found in a juxta-nuclear location in contrast to TGN46. Actin distribution in these cells reveals that juxta-nuclear MNK is distinct to the astral actin clusters in ROCK-KIN expressing cells where the microtubules were depolymerized. The TGN to cell-surface transport of MNK requires both actin and microtubules networks, whilst the constitutive trafficking of proteins is independent of actin. Taken together, our findings indicate that at least two TGN sub-domains are regulated by separate cytoskeletal dynamics involving actin and tubulin.

Abstract
Secretory granules called Weibel-Palade bodies (WPBs) containing Von Willebrand factor (VWF) are characteristic of the mammalian endothelium. We hypothesized that vascular-specific antigens such as VWF are linked to endothelial identity and proliferation in vitro. To test this idea, the cellular accumulation of VWF in WPBs was monitored as a function of cell proliferation, confluence and passage number in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). We found that as passage number increased the percentage of cells containing VWF in WPBs was reduced significantly, whilst the protein was still detected within the secretory pathway at all times. However, the endothelial-specific marker protein, PECAM-1, is present on all cells even when WPBs are absent, indicating partial maintenance of endothelial identity. Biochemical studies show that a significant pool of immature pro-VWF can be detected in sub-confluent HUVECs; however, a larger pool of mature, processed VWF is detected in confluent cells. Newly synthesized VWF must thus be differentially sorted and packaged along the secretory pathway in semi-confluent versus confluent endothelial cells. Our studies thus show that WPB formation is linked to the formation of a confluent endothelial monolayer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that regulates vascular physiology. However, mechanism(s) by which VEGFR2 signaling and trafficking is coordinated are not clear. Here, we have tested endocytic Rab GTPases for regulation of VEGFR2 trafficking and signaling linked to endothelial cell migration. METHODS AND RESULTS Quiescent VEGFR2 displays endosomal localization and colocalization with the Rab5a GTPase, an early endosome fusion regulator. Expression of GTP or GDP-bound Rab5a mutants block activated VEGFR2 trafficking and degradation. Manipulation of Rab7a GTPase activity associated with late endosomes using overexpression of wild-type or mutant proteins blocks activated VEGFR2 trafficking and degradation. Depletion of Rab7a decreased VEGFR2 Y1175 phosphorylation but increased p42/44 (pERK1/2) MAPK phosphorylation. Endothelial cell migration was increased by Rab5a depletion but decreased by Rab7a depletion. CONCLUSIONS Rab5a and Rab7a regulate VEGFR2 trafficking toward early and late endosomes. Our data suggest that VEGFR2-mediated regulation of endothelial function is dependent on different but specific Rab-mediated GTP hydrolysis activity required for endosomal trafficking.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A three-generation Chinese family with Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD) was identified and characterized. The proband developed HHD with severe recurrent blisters and crusted erosions involving the body folds. Skin biopsy studies showed epidermal hyperkeratosis and defects in cell-to-cell adhesion. Three other members in the family were also affected with HHD and had the same clinical manifestations. The purpose of this study was to identify the pathogenic gene or mutation in the family. METHODS All exons and exon-intron boundaries of ATP2C1 were polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified and sequenced with DNA samples from the proband. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis for the intron 23-exon 24 boundary of ATP2C1 was performed in all family members and in 100 normal control subjects. RESULTS A novel 2-bp deletion (c.2251delGT) was detected in exon 24 of the ATP2C1 gene. The mutation was present in the three other affected family members and in two asymptomatic young carriers, but not in the other normal family members or the 100 normal controls. The mutation resulted in a frameshift change and led to the formation of a premature termination codon (PTC) four amino acid residues downstream from the sixth transmembrane domain. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that the novel c.2251delGT (p.V751fs) mutation in the ATP2C1 gene is responsible for HHD in this Chinese family. This study expands the spectrum of ATP2C1 mutations associated with HHD.

Abstract
Depletion of EHD3 affects sorting in endosomes by altering the kinetics and route of receptor recycling to the plasma membrane. Here we demonstrate that siRNA knockdown of EHD3, or its interaction partner rabenosyn-5, causes redistribution of sorting nexin 1 (SNX1) to enlarged early endosomes and disrupts transport of internalized Shiga toxin B subunit (STxB) to the Golgi. Moreover, under these conditions, Golgi morphology appears as a series of highly dispersed and fragmented stacks that maintain characteristics of cis-, medial- and trans-Golgi membranes. Although Arf1 still assembled onto these dispersed Golgi membranes, the level of AP-1 gamma-adaptin recruited to the Golgi was diminished. Whereas VSV-G-secretion from the dispersed Golgi remained largely unaffected, the distribution of mannose 6-phosphate receptor (M6PR) was altered: it remained in peripheral endosomes and did not return to the Golgi. Cathepsin D, a hydrolase that is normally transported to lysosomes via an M6PR-dependent pathway, remained trapped at the Golgi. Our findings support a role for EHD3 in regulating endosome-to-Golgi transport, and as a consequence, lysosomal biosynthetic, but not secretory, transport pathways are also affected. These data also suggest that impaired endosome-to-Golgi transport and the resulting lack of recruitment of AP-1 gamma-adaptin to Golgi membranes affect Golgi morphology.

Abstract
The hTRPC [human TRPC (canonical transient receptor potential)] family of non-selective cation channels is proposed to mediate calcium influx across the plasma membrane via PLC (phospholipase C)-coupled receptors. Heterologously expressed hTRPC3 and hTRPC7 have been localized at the cell surface; however, a large intracellular component has also been noted but not characterized. In the present study, we have investigated the intracellular pool in COS-7 cells and have shown co-localization with markers for both the TGN (trans-Golgi network) and the cis-Golgi cisternae by immunofluorescence microscopy. Addition of BFA (Brefeldin A) to cells expressing hTRPC3 or hTRPC7 resulted in the redistribution of the Golgi component to the endoplasmic reticulum, indicating that this pool is present in both the Golgi stack and the TGN. Expression of either TRPC3 or TRPC7, but not TRPC1 or the cell surface marker CD8, resulted in a 2–4-fold increase in secreted alkaline phosphatase in the extracellular medium. Based on these results, we propose that an additional function of these members of the hTRPC family may be to enhance secretion either by affecting transport through the Golgi stack or by increasing fusion at the plasma membrane.

Abstract
The LOX-1 scavenger receptor recognises pro-atherogenic oxidised low-density lipoprotein (OxLDL) particles and is implicated in atherosclerotic plaque formation, but this mechanism is not well understood. Here we show evidence for a novel clathrin-independent and cytosolic-signal-dependent pathway that regulates LOX-1-mediated OxLDL internalisation. Cell surface labelling in the absence or presence of OxLDL ligand showed that LOX-1 is constitutively internalised from the plasma membrane and its half-life is not altered upon ligand binding and trafficking. We show that LOX-1-mediated OxLDL uptake is disrupted by overexpression of dominant-negative dynamin-2 but unaffected by CHC17 or mu2 (AP2) depletion. Site-directed mutagenesis revealed a conserved and novel cytoplasmic tripeptide motif (DDL) that regulates LOX-1-mediated endocytosis of OxLDL. Taken together, these findings indicate that LOX-1 is internalised by a clathrin-independent and dynamin-2-dependent pathway and is thus likely to mediate OxLDL trafficking in vascular tissues.

Abstract
Membrane fractions of pig cerebellum show Ca2+-ATPase activity and Ca2+ transport due to the presence of the secretory pathway Ca2+-ATPase (SPCA). The SPCA1 isoform shows a wide distribution in the neurons of pig cerebellum, where it is found in the Golgi complex of the soma of Purkinje, stellate, basket and granule cells, and also in more distal components of the secretory pathway associated with a synaptic localization such as in cerebellar glomeruli. The SPCA1 may be involved in loading the Golgi complex and the secretory vesicles of these specific neuronal cell types with Ca2+ and also Mn2+. This study of the cellular and subcellular localization of SPCA1 pumps relative to the sarco(endo) plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase and plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPase pumps hints to a possible specific role of SPCA1 in controlling the luminal secretory pathway Ca2+ (or Mn2+) levels as well as the local cytosolic Ca2+ levels. In addition, it helps to specify the zones that are most vulnerable to Ca2+ and/or Mn2+ dyshomeostasis, a condition that is held responsible of an increasing number of neurological disorders.

The human endothelial vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2/kinase domain region, KDR/fetal liver kinase-1, Flk-1) tyrosine kinase receptor is essential for VEGF-mediated physiological responses including endothelial cell proliferation, migration and survival. How VEGFR2 kinase activation and trafficking are co-coordinated in response to VEGF-A is not known. Here, we elucidate a mechanism for endothelial VEGFR2 response to VEGF-A dependent on constitutive endocytosis co-ordinated with ligand-activated ubiquitination and proteolysis. The selective VEGFR kinase inhibitor, SU5416, blocked the endosomal sorting required for VEGFR2 trafficking and degradation. Inhibition of VEGFR2 tyrosine kinase activity did not block plasma membrane internalization but led to endosomal accumulation. Lysosomal protease activity was required for ligand-stimulated VEGFR2 degradation. Activated VEGFR2 codistributed with the endosomal hepatocyte growth factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate (Hrs)/signal-transducing adaptor molecule (STAM) complex in a ligand and time-dependent manner, implying a role for this factor in sorting of ubiquitinated VEGFR2. Increased tyrosine phosphorylation of the Hrs subunit in response to VEGF-A links VEGFR2 activation and Hrs/STAM function. In contrast, VEGFR2 in quiescent cells was present on both the endothelial plasma membrane and early endosomes, suggesting constitutive recycling between these two compartments. This pathway was clathrin-linked and dependent on the AP2 adaptor complex as the A23 tyrphostin inhibited VEGFR2 trafficking. We propose a mechanism whereby the transition of endothelial VEGFR2 from a constitutive recycling itinerary to a degradative pathway explains ligand-activated receptor degradation in endothelial cells. This study outlines a mechanism to control the VEGF-A-mediated response within the vascular system.

Abstract
The LOX-1 (lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1) scavenger receptor regulates vascular responses to oxidized-low-density-lipoprotein particles implicated in atherosclerotic plaque formation. LOX-1 is closely related to C-type lectins, but the mechanism of ligand recognition is not known. Here we show that human LOX-1 recognizes a key cellular phospholipid, PS (phosphatidylserine), in a Ca2+-dependent manner, both in vitro and in cultured cells. A recombinant, folded and glycosylated LOX-1 molecule binds PS, but not other phospholipids. LOX-1 recognition of PS was maximal in the presence of millimolar Ca2+ levels. Mg2+ was unable to substitute for Ca2+ in LOX-1 binding to PS, indicating a Ca2+-specific requirement for bivalent cations. LOX-1-mediated recognition of PS-containing apoptotic bodies was dependent on Ca2+ and was decreased to background levels by bivalent-cation chelation, LOX-1-blocking antibodies or PS-containing liposomes. The LOX-1 membrane protein is thus a Ca2+-dependent phospholipid receptor, revealing novel recognition of phospholipids by mammalian lectins.

Abstract
The first mammalian examples of the equilibrative nucleoside transporter family to be characterized, hENT1 and hENT2, were passive transporters located predominantly in the plasma membranes of human cells. We now report the functional characterization of members of a third subgroup of the family, from human and mouse, which differ profoundly in their properties from previously characterized mammalian nucleoside transporters. The 475-residue human and mouse proteins, designated hENT3 and mENT3, respectively, are 73% identical in amino acid sequence and possess long N-terminal hydrophilic domains that bear typical (DE)XXXL(LI) endosomal/lysosomal targeting motifs. ENT3 transcripts and proteins are widely distributed in human and rodent tissues, with a particular abundance in placenta. However, in contrast to ENT1 and ENT2, the endogenous and green fluorescent protein-tagged forms of the full-length hENT3 protein were found to be predominantly intracellular proteins that co-localized, in part, with lysosomal markers in cultured human cells. Truncation of the hydrophilic N-terminal region or mutation of its dileucine motif to alanine caused the protein to be relocated to the cell surface both in human cells and in Xenopus oocytes, allowing characterization of its transport activity in the latter. The protein proved to be a broad selectivity, low affinity nucleoside transporter that could also transport adenine. Transport activity was relatively insensitive to the classical nucleoside transport inhibitors nitrobenzylthioinosine, dipyridamole, and dilazep and was sodium ion-independent. However, it was strongly dependent upon pH, and the optimum pH value of 5.5 probably reflected the location of the transporter in acidic, intracellular compartments.

Abstract
The understanding of the controlling factors of calcium homeostasis in Aspergillus fumigatus is very poor, although this ion is involved in several important events of these particular cells. We have cloned, identified and expressed for functional complementation a PMR1-like Ca(2+)-ATPase gene from A. fumigatus. The Afpmr1 gene encodes a protein of 1061 deduced amino acids, containing all the conserved subdomains found in other P-type ATPases: the phosphatase region, phosphorylation site, FITC labelling site, ATP binding domain; E(386), N871, D875 amino acid residues for calcium ion interaction and Q880, a residue that alters ion selectivity in PMR1. The expressed AfPMR1 in S. cerevisiae K616 strain functionally complemented the deficient growth in EGTA (5-20 mM)- and MnCl2 (4 mM)-containing medium. These results demonstrate the first evidence of a Ca(2+)-ATPase in A. fumigatus and strongly suggest a role for this enzyme in calcium and manganese homeostasis.

Abstract
Recent evidence highlights the functional importance of the Golgi apparatus as an agonist-sensitive intracellular Ca(2+) store. Besides Ca(2+)-release channels and Ca(2+)-binding proteins, the Golgi complex contains Ca(2+)-uptake mechanisms consisting of the well-known sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-transport ATPases (SERCA) and the much less characterized secretory-pathway Ca(2+)-transport ATPases (SPCA). SPCA supplies the Golgi compartments and, possibly, the more distal compartments of the secretory pathway with both Ca(2+) and Mn(2+) and, therefore, plays an important role in the cytosolic and intra-Golgi Ca(2+) and Mn(2+) homeostasis. Mutations in the human gene encoding the SPCA1 pump (ATP2C1) resulting in Hailey-Hailey disease, an autosomal dominant skin disorder, are discussed.

Abstract
Both the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus are agonist-sensitive intracellular Ca2+ stores. The Golgi apparatus has Ca2+-release channels and a Ca2+-uptake mechanism consisting of sarco(endo)plasmic-reticulum Ca2+-ATPases (SERCA) and secretory-pathway Ca2+-ATPases (SPCA). SPCA1 has been shown to transport both Ca2+ and Mn2+ in the Golgi lumen and therefore plays an important role in the cytosolic and intra-Golgi Ca2+ and Mn2+ homeostasis. Human genetic studies have provided new information on the physiological role of SPCA1. Loss of one functional copy of the SPCA1 (ATP2C1) gene causes Hailey-Hailey disease, a skin disorder arising in the adult age with recurrent vesicles and erosions in the flexural areas. Here, we review recent experimental evidence showing that the Golgi apparatus plays a much more important role in intracellular ion homeostasis than previously anticipated.

Abstract
Intensive exposures to natural and artificial sources of infrasonic acoustic shock (tectonic disturbances, supersonic aeroplanes, etc.) have been observed in ecosystems supporting mammalian populations that are blighted by clusters of traditional and new variant strains of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE). But TSEs will only emerge in those 'infrasound-rich' environments which are simultaneously influenced by eco-factors that induce a high manganese (Mn)/low copper (Cu)-zinc (Zn) ratio in brains of local mammalian populations. Since cellular prion protein (PrPc) is a cupro-protein expressed throughout the circadian mediated pathways of the body, it is proposed that PrP's Cu component performs a role in the conduction and distribution of endogenous electromagnetic energy; energy that has been transduced from incoming ultraviolet, acoustic, geomagnetic radiations. TSE pathogenesis is initiated once Mn substitutes at the vacant Cu domain on PrPc and forms a nonpathogenic, protease resistant, 'sleeping' prion. A second stage of pathogenesis comes into play once a low frequency wave of infrasonic shock metamorphoses the piezoelectric atomic structure of the Mn 3+ component of the prion, thereby 'priming' the sleeping prion into its fully fledged, pathogenic TSE isoform - where the paramagnetic status of the Mn 3+ atom is transformed into a stable ferrimagnetic lattice work, due to the strong electron-phonon coupling resulting from the dynamic 'Jahn-Teller' type distortions of the oxygen octahedra specific to the trivalent Mn species. The so called 'infectivity' of the prion is a misnomer and should be correctly defined as the contagious field inducing capacity of the ferrimagnetic Mn 3+ component of the prion; which remains pathogenic at all temperatures below the 'curie point'. A progressive domino-like 'metal to ligand to metal' ferrimagnetic corruption of the conduits of electromagnetic superexchange is initiated. The TSE diseased brain can be likened to a solar charged battery on continuous charge; where the Mn contaminated/Cu depleted circadian-auditory pathways absorb and pile up, rather than conduct the vital life force energies of incoming ultra violet, acoustic and geomagnetic radiation. Instead of harnessing these energies for the body's own bio-rhythmic requirements, an infrasonic shock induced metamorphosis of the Mn atom intervenes; initiating an explosive pathogenesis that perverts the healthy pathways of darkness and light; Cu prions are replaced by hyperpolarized Mn 3+ prions that seed self perpetuating 'cluster bombs' of free radical mediated neurodegeneration. TSE ensues.

Abstract
Cytosolic phospholipase A2-alpha (cPLA2-alpha) is an 85 kDa, Ca2+-sensitive enzyme involved in receptor-mediated prostaglandin synthesis. In airway epithelial cells, the release of prostaglandins is crucial in regulating the inflammatory response. Although prostaglandin release has been studied in various epithelial cell models, the subcellular location of cPLA2-alpha in these cells is unknown. Using high-resolution confocal microscopy of the human A549 lung epithelial cell line, we show that cPLA2-alpha relocates from the cytosol and nuclei to a juxtanuclear region following stimulation with the Ca2+ ionophore A23187. Double staining with rhodamine-conjugated wheat germ agglutinin confirmed this region to be the Golgi apparatus. Markers specific for Golgi subcompartments revealed that cPLA2-alpha is predominantly located at the trans-Golgi stack and the trans-Golgi network following elevation of cytosolic Ca2+. Furthermore, treatment of cells with the Golgi-disrupting agent brefeldin A caused a redistribution of cPLA2-alpha, confirming that cPLA2-alpha associates with Golgi-derived membranes. Finally, a specific co-localization of cPLA2-alpha with cyclooxygenase-1 but not cyclooxygenase-2 was evident at the Golgi apparatus. These results, combined with recent data on the role of PLA2 activity in maintaining Golgi structure and function, suggest that Golgi localization of cPLA2-alpha may be involved in membrane trafficking in epithelial cells.

Abstract
Besides the well-known sarco/endoplasmic-reticulum Ca(2+)-transport ATPases (SERCA), animal cells contain a much less characterized P-type Ca(2+)-transport ATPase: the PMR1/SPCA Ca(2+)/Mn(2+)-transport ATPase. SPCA is mainly targeted to the Golgi apparatus. Phylogenetic analysis indicates that it might be more closely related to a putative ancestral Ca(2+) pump than SERCA. SPCA supplies the Golgi apparatus, and possibly other more distal compartments of the secretory pathway, with the Ca(2+) and Mn(2+) necessary for the production and processing of secretory proteins. In the lactating mammary gland, SPCA appears to be the primary pump responsible for supplementing the milk with high (60-100 mM) Ca(2+). It could also play a role in detoxification of cells overloaded with Mn(2+). Mutations in the human gene encoding the SPCA pump ( ATP2C1) result in Hailey-Hailey disease, a keratinocyte disorder characterized by incomplete cell adhesion. Recent observations show that the Golgi apparatus can function as a Ca(2+) store, which can be involved in setting up cytosolic Ca(2+) oscillations.

Abstract
Golgi morphology and function are dependent on an intact microtubule and actin cytoskeleton. Myosin VI, an unusual actin-based motor protein moving towards the minus ends of actin filaments, has been localized to the Golgi complex at the light and electron microscopic level. Myosin VI is present in purified Golgi membranes as a peripheral membrane protein, targeted by its globular tail domain. To investigate the function of myosin VI at the Golgi complex, immortal fibroblastic cell lines of Snell's waltzer mice lacking myosin VI were established. In these cell lines, where myosin VI is absent, the Golgi complex is reduced in size by approximately 40% compared with wild-type cells. Furthermore, protein secretion of a reporter protein from Snell's waltzer cells is also reduced by 40% compared with wild-type cells. Rescue experiments showed that fully functional myosin VI was able to restore Golgi complex morphology and protein secretion in Snell's waltzer cells to the same level as that observed in wild-type cells.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of manganese on the morphology of cultured rat cortical astrocytes. Astrocytes exhibited flattened, polygonal morphology in the absence of stimulation, and differentiated into process-bearing stellate cells following exposure to MnCl(2). MnCl(2)-induced stellation was a reversible process, which depended on the presence of extracellular free manganese. MnCl(2)-induced stellation did not stop with the introduction of pertussis toxin, PD98059, SB203580, phorbol 12-myristat 13-acetate, SQ22536, or LY83583. Alternatively, MnCl(2)-induced stellation did stop when exposed to colchicine and sodium orthovanadate, suggesting the involvement of the cytoskeletal elements and orthovanadate-sensitive protein tyrosine phosphatase. MnCl(2) might function as a factor regulating astrocyte morphology.

Abstract
Persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy (PHHI) is a genetic disorder characterized by excess secretion of insulin and hypoglycemia. In most patients, the disease is caused by mutations in sulfonylurea receptor-1 (SUR1), which, in association with Kir6.2, constitutes the functional ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channel of the pancreatic beta-cell. Previous studies reported that coexpression of the PHHI mutant R1394H-SUR1 with Kir6.2 in COS cells produces no functional channels. To investigate if the loss of function could be due to impaired trafficking of mutant channels to the cell membrane, we have cotransfected wild-type and mutant SUR1 subunits with Kir6.2 into HEK293 cells and examined their cellular localization by immunofluorescent staining. Our results show that unlike the wild-type subunits, which showed fluorescence at the cell surface, the mutant subunits displayed fluorescence in punctate structures. Co-immunostaining with antibodies against organelle-specific marker proteins identified these structures as the trans-Golgi network. Limited localization in clathrin-positive, but transferrin receptor-negative vesicles was also observed. The post-endoplasmic reticulum localization suggests that the mutation does not impair the folding and assembly of the channels so as to cause its retention by the endoplasmic reticulum. Diazoxide, a K(ATP) channel opener drug that is used in the treatment of PHHI, restored the surface expression in a manner that could be prevented by the channel blocker glibenclamide. When expressed in Xenopus oocytes, R1394H-SUR1 formed functional channels with Kir6.2, indicating that the primary consequence of the mutation is impairment of trafficking rather than function. Thus, our data uncover a novel mechanism underlying the therapeutic action of diazoxide in the treatment of PHHI, i.e. its ability to recruit channels to the membrane. Furthermore, this is the first report to describe a trafficking disorder effecting retention of mutant proteins in the trans-Golgi network.
