Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the most common cause of death around the world. This includes atherosclerosis and the adverse effects of its treatment, such as restenosis and thrombotic complications. The development of these arterial pathologies requires a series of highly-intertwined interactions between immune and arterial cells, leading to specific inflammatory and fibroproliferative cellular responses. In the last few years, the study of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) functions has become an attractive area of investigation in the field of arterial diseases, especially since inhibitors of specific PI3K isoforms have been developed. The PI3K family includes 8 members divided into classes I, II or III depending on their substrate specificity. Although some of the different isoforms are responsible for the production of the same 3-phosphoinositides, they each have specific, non-redundant functions as a result of differences in expression levels in different cell types, activation mechanisms and specific subcellular locations. This review will focus on the functions of the different PI3K isoforms that are suspected as having protective or deleterious effects in both the various immune cells and types of cell found in the arterial wall. It will also discuss our current understanding in the context of which PI3K isoform(s) should be targeted for future therapeutic interventions to prevent or treat arterial diseases.

Abstract
RAGE is a key molecule in the onset and sustainment of the inflammatory response. New studies indicate that RAGE might represent a new link between the innate and adaptive immune system. RAGE belongs to the superfamily of Ig cell-surface receptors and is expressed on all types of leukocytes promoting activation, migration, or maturation of the different cells. RAGE expression is prominent on the activated endothelium, where it mediates leukocyte adhesion and transmigration. Moreover, proinflammatory molecules released from the inflamed or injured vascular system induce migration and proliferation of SMCs. RAGE binds a large number of different ligands and is therefore considered as a PRR, recognizing a structural motif rather than a specific ligand. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge about the signaling pathways activated in the different cell types and discuss a potential activation mechanism of RAGE, as well as putative options for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
An early lesion in many kidney diseases is damage to podocytes, which are critical components of the glomerular filtration barrier. A number of proteins are essential for podocyte filtration function, but the signaling events contributing to development of nephrotic syndrome are not well defined. Here we show that class II phosphoinositide 3-kinase C2α (PI3KC2α) is expressed in podocytes and plays a critical role in maintaining normal renal homeostasis. PI3KC2α-deficient mice developed chronic renal failure and exhibited a range of kidney lesions, including glomerular crescent formation and renal tubule defects in early disease, which progressed to diffuse mesangial sclerosis, with reduced podocytes, widespread effacement of foot processes, and modest proteinuria. These findings were associated with altered expression of nephrin, synaptopodin, WT-1, and desmin, indicating that PI3KC2α deficiency specifically impacts podocyte morphology and function. Deposition of glomerular IgA was observed in knockout mice; importantly, however, the development of severe glomerulonephropathy preceded IgA production, indicating that nephropathy was not directly IgA mediated. PI3KC2α deficiency did not affect immune responses, and bone marrow transplantation studies also indicated that the glomerulonephropathy was not the direct consequence of an immune-mediated disease. Thus, PI3KC2α is critical for maintenance of normal glomerular structure and function by supporting normal podocyte function.

Abstract
At present, a variety of agents targeting tumor angiogenesis are under clinical investigation as new therapies for patients with cancer. Overexpression of the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin on tumor vasculature has been associated with an aggressive phenotype of several solid tumor types. Murine models have shown that antibodies targeting the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin can affect tumor vasculature and block tumor formation and metastasis. These findings suggest that antibodies directed at alpha(v)beta(3) could be investigated in the treatment of human malignancies. The current phase I dose escalation study evaluated the safety of MEDI-522, a monoclonal antibody specific for the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin, in patients with advanced malignancies. Twenty-five patients with a variety of metastatic solid tumors were treated with MEDI-522 on a weekly basis with doses ranging from 2 to 10 mg/kg/wk. Adverse events were assessed weekly; pharmacokinetic studies were done; and radiographic staging was done every 8 weeks. In addition, dynamic computed tomography imaging was done at baseline and at 8 weeks in patients with suitable target lesions amenable to analysis, to potentially identify the effect of MEDI-522 on tumor perfusion. Treatment was well tolerated, and a maximum tolerated dose was not identified by traditional dose-limiting toxicities. The major adverse events observed were grade 1 and 2 infusion-related reactions (fever, rigors, flushing, injection site reactions, and tachycardia), low-grade constitutional and gastrointestinal symptoms (fatigue, myalgias, and nausea), and asymptomatic hypophosphatemia. Dynamic computed tomography imaging suggested a possible effect on tumor perfusion with an increase in contrast mean transit time from baseline to the 8-week evaluation with increasing doses of MEDI-522. No complete or partial responses were observed. Three patients with metastatic renal cell cancer experienced prolonged stable disease (34 weeks, >1 and >2 years) on treatment. With this weekly schedule of administration, and in the doses studied, MEDI-522 seems to be without significant toxicity, may have effects on tumor perfusion, and may have clinical activity in renal cell cancer. These findings suggest the MEDI-522 could be further investigated as an antiangiogenic agent for the treatment of cancer.

Abstract
Stretch of beta1 integrins activates an outwardly rectifying, tamoxifen-sensitive Cl(-) current (Cl(-) SAC) via AT1 receptors, NADPH oxidase, and reactive oxygen species, and Cl(-) SAC resembles the volume-sensitive Cl(-) current (I(Cl,swell)). Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase undergoes transactivation upon stretch, integrin engagement, and AT1 receptor activation and, in turn, stimulates NADPH oxidase. Therefore, we tested whether Cl(-) SAC is regulated by EGFR kinase signaling and is volume sensitive. Paramagnetic beads coated with mAb for beta1 integrin were attached to myocytes and pulled with an electromagnet. Stretch activated a Cl(-) SAC that was 1.13 +/- 0.10 pA/pF at +40 mV. AG1478 (10 muM), an EGFR kinase blocker, inhibited 93 +/- 13% of Cl(-) SAC, and intracellular pretreatment with 1 muM AG1478 markedly suppressed Cl(-) SAC activation. EGF (3.3 nM) directly activated an outwardly rectifying Cl(-) current (0.81 +/- 0.05 pA/pF at +40 mV) that was fully blocked by 10 muM tamoxifen, an I(Cl,swell) blocker. Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI-3K) is downstream of EGFR kinase. Wortmannin (500 nM) and LY294002 (100 microM), blockers of PI-3K, inhibited Cl(-) SAC by 67 +/- 6% and 91 +/- 25% respectively, and the EGF-induced Cl(-) current also was fully blocked by LY294002. Furthermore, gp91ds-tat (500 nM), a cell-permeable, chimeric peptide that specifically blocks NADPH oxidase assembly, profoundly inhibited the EGF-induced Cl(-) current. Inactive permeant and active impermeant control peptides had no effect. Myocyte shrinkage with hyperosmotic bathing media inhibited the Cl(-) SAC and EGF-induced Cl(-) current by 88 +/- 9% and 127 +/- 11%, respectively. These results suggest that beta1 integrin stretch activates Cl(-) SAC via EGFR, PI-3K, and NADPH oxidase, and that both the Cl(-) SAC and the EGF-induced Cl(-) currents are likely to be the volume-sensitive Cl(-) current, I(Cl,swell).

Abstract
Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) regulate an array of cellular processes and are comprised of three classes. Class I PI3Ks include the well-studied agonist-sensitive p110 isoforms; however, the functions of class II and III PI3Ks are less well characterized. Of the three class II PI3Ks, C2alpha and C2beta are widely expressed in many tissues, including the epidermis, while C2gamma is confined to the liver. In contrast to the class I PI3K p110alpha, which is expressed throughout the epidermis, C2beta was found to be localized in suprabasal cells, suggesting a potential role for C2beta in epidermal differentiation. Overexpressing C2beta in epidermal cells in vitro induced differentiation markers. To study a role for C2beta in tissue, we generated transgenic mice overexpressing C2beta in both suprabasal and basal epidermal layers. These mice lacked epidermal abnormalities. Mice deficient in C2beta were then generated by targeted gene deletion. C2beta knockout mice were viable and fertile and displayed normal epidermal growth, differentiation, barrier function, and wound healing. To exclude compensation by C2alpha, RNA interference was then used to knock down both C2alpha and C2beta in epidermal cells simultaneously. Induction of differentiation markers was unaffected in the absence of C2alpha and C2beta. These findings indicate that class II PI3Ks are not essential for epidermal differentiation.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide 3-kinase C2alpha (PI3K-C2alpha) is a member of the class II PI-3 kinases, defined by the presence of a second C2 domain at their C termini. The cellular functions of the class II enzymes are incompletely understood, though they have been implicated in receptor activation pathways initiated by epidermal growth factor, insulin, and chemokines. PI3K-C2alpha was recently found to be localized to clathrin-coated membranes in the trans-Golgi network and at endocytic sites on the plasma membrane. Further, a specific binding site was identified for clathrin on the N terminus of PI3K-C2alpha, whose occupancy resulted in lipid kinase activation. Expression of PI3K-C2alpha in cells dramatically affected clathrin distribution and function in cells, leading to accumulation of intracellular clathrin-coated structures, which are visualized here at the ultrastructural level, and inhibition of clathrin-mediated transport from both the plasma membrane and the trans-Golgi network. In this study we have demonstrated that the isolated clathrin binding domain of PI3K-C2alpha can drive clathrin lattice assembly and that both it and the lipid kinase activity of the protein can independently modulate clathrin distribution and function when expressed in cells. Together, these results suggest that PI3K-C2alpha employs both protein-protein interaction and localized production of 3-phosphoinositides to affect clathrin dynamics at sites of membrane budding and targeting.

Abstract
Contrary to the antimotogenic effect of NO in dedifferentiated vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), we have reported that NO stimulates the motility of differentiated cultured VSMC isolated from adult rats. This process involves upregulation of protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP2, followed by downregulation of RhoA activity. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that insulin alters the motogenic phenotype of cultured rat aortic smooth muscle cells exposed to NO from inhibition to stimulation of cell motility. We demonstrate for the first time that NO stimulates the motility of VSMCs cultured for several days in the presence but not the absence of insulin. Moreover, we show that NO blocks PDGF-induced cell motility in insulin-naive but not in insulin-treated cells. We also demonstrate that the scaffold adapter protein Gab1, considered a physiological activator of protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP2, increases cell motility in the presence but not the absence of insulin. In cells cultured in the presence of insulin, overexpression of Gab1 mimics, whereas a dominant-negative allele of Gab1 (Gab1YF) blocks, the motility-stimulatory effect of NO. Cotransfection experiments with dominant-negative Gab1 and wild-type SHP2 or wild-type Gab1 and dominant-negative SHP2 indicate that the two proteins work together as a functional unit to induce motility. Because chronic insulin can increase the levels of phosphatidylinositol 3 (PI3) kinase in several models of hyperinsulinemia, we also tested the potential involvement of this enzyme in mechanisms leading to increased cell motility. We found that the motogenic effect of NO, Gab1, and SHP2 was blocked by the selective PI3 kinase inhibitor LY294002, suggesting a requirement of PI3 kinase in mediating motogenesis. These observations may be relevant to molecular mechanisms related to the pathogenesis of vascular disease in hyperinsulinemic diabetes.

Abstract
Regulation of smooth muscle contraction involves a number of signaling mechanisms that include both kinase and phosphatase reactions. The goal of the present study was to determine the role of one such kinase, phosphatidylinositol (PI)3-kinase, in vascular smooth muscle excitation-contraction coupling. Using intact medial strips of the swine carotid artery, we found that inhibition of PI3-kinase by LY-294002 resulted in a concentration-dependent decrease in the contractile response to both agonist stimulation and membrane depolarization-dependent contractions and a decrease in Ca(2+)-dependent myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation, the primary step in the initiation of smooth muscle contraction. Inhibition of PI3-kinase also depressed phorbol dibutyrate-induced contractions, which are not dependent on either Ca(2+) or MLC phosphorylation but are dependent on protein kinase C. To determine the Ca(2+)-dependent site of action of PI3-kinase, we determined the effect of several inhibitors of calcium metabolism on LY-294002-dependent inhibition of contraction. These inhibitors included nifedipine, SK&F-96365, and caffeine. Only SK&F-96365 blocked the LY-294002-dependent inhibition of contraction. Interestingly, all compounds blocked the LY-294002-dependent inhibition of MLC phosphorylation. Our results suggest that activation of PI3-kinase is involved in a Ca(2+)- and MLC phosphorylation-independent pathway for contraction likely to involve protein kinase C. In addition, our results also suggest that activation of PI3-kinase is involved in Ca(2+)-dependent signaling at the level of receptor-operated calcium channels.
