Abstract
Proliferating cells must synthesize a wide variety of macromolecules while progressing through the cell cycle, but the coordination between cell cycle progression and cellular metabolism is still poorly understood. To identify metabolic processes that oscillate over the cell cycle, we performed comprehensive, non-targeted liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) based metabolomics of HeLa cells isolated in the G1 and SG2M cell cycle phases, capturing thousands of diverse metabolite ions. When accounting for increased total metabolite abundance due to cell growth throughout the cell cycle, 18% of the observed LC-HRMS peaks were at least twofold different between the stages, consistent with broad metabolic remodeling throughout the cell cycle. While most amino acids, phospholipids, and total ribonucleotides were constant across cell cycle phases, consistent with the view that total macromolecule synthesis does not vary across the cell cycle, certain metabolites were oscillating. For example, ribonucleotides were highly phosphorylated in SG2M, indicating an increase in energy charge, and several phosphatidylinositols were more abundant in G1, possibly indicating altered membrane lipid signaling. Within carbohydrate metabolism, pentose phosphates and methylglyoxal metabolites were associated with the cycle. Interestingly, hundreds of yet uncharacterized metabolites similarly oscillated between cell cycle phases, suggesting previously unknown metabolic activities that may be synchronized with cell cycle progression, providing an important resource for future studies.

Nuclear Phosphoinositides-Versatile Regulators of Genome Functions. Cells 2019; 8:cells8070649.

Abstract
The many functions of phosphoinositides in cytosolic signaling were extensively studied; however, their activities in the cell nucleus are much less clear. In this review, we summarize data about their nuclear localization and metabolism, and review the available literature on their involvements in chromatin remodeling, gene transcription, and RNA processing. We discuss the molecular mechanisms via which nuclear phosphoinositides, in particular phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2), modulate nuclear processes. We focus on PI(4,5)P2’s role in the modulation of RNA polymerase I activity, and functions of the nuclear lipid islets—recently described nucleoplasmic PI(4,5)P2-rich compartment involved in RNA polymerase II transcription. In conclusion, the high impact of the phosphoinositide–protein complexes on nuclear organization and genome functions is only now emerging and deserves further thorough studies.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide signaling has been implicated in the regulation of numerous cellular processes including cytoskeletal dynamics, cellular motility, vesicle trafficking, and gene transcription. Studies have also shown that nuclear phosphoinositide(s) regulates processes such as mRNA export, cell cycle progression, gene transcription, and DNA repair. We have shown previously that the nuclear form of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase 1α (PIP5K), the enzyme responsible for phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate synthesis, is modified by small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO)-1. In this study, we have shown that due to the site-specific Lys to Ala mutations of PIP5K at Lys-244 and Lys-490, it is unable to localize in the nucleus and nucleolus, respectively. Furthermore, by using chromatin immunoprecipitation assays, we have observed that PIP5K associates with the chromatin silencing complex constituted of H3K9me3 and heterochromatin protein 1α at multiple ribosomal DNA (rDNA) loci. These interactions followed a definite cyclical pattern of occupancy (mostly G1) and release from the rDNA loci (G1/S) throughout the cell cycle. Moreover, the immunoprecipitation results clearly demonstrate that PIP5K SUMOylated at Lys-490 interacts with components of the chromatin silencing machinery, H3K9me3 and heterochromatin protein 1α. However, PIP5K does not interact with the gene activation signature protein H3K4me3. This study, for the first time, demonstrates that PIP5K, an enzyme actively associated with lipid modification pathway, has additional roles in rDNA silencing.

Abstract
The progressive and permanent loss of cerebellar Purkinje cells (PC) is a hallmark of many inherited ataxias. Mutations in several genes involved in the regulation of Ca(2+) release from intracellular stores by the second messenger IP3 have been associated with PC dysfunction or death. While much is known about the defects in production and response to IP3, less is known about the defects in breakdown of the IP3 second messenger. A mutation in Inpp4a of the pathway is associated with a severe, early-onset PC degeneration in the mouse model weeble. The step preceding the removal of the 4-phosphate is the removal of the 5-phosphate by Inpp5a. Gene expression analysis was performed on an Inpp5a (Gt(OST50073)Lex) mouse generated by gene trap insertion using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), immunohistochemistry, and Western blot. Phenotypic analyses were performed using rotarod, β-galactosidase staining, and phosphatase activity assay. Statistical significance was calculated. The deletion of Inpp5a causes an early-onset yet slowly progressive PC degeneration and ataxia. Homozygous mutants (90%) exhibit perinatal lethality; surviving homozygotes show locomotor instability at P16. A consistent pattern of PC loss in the cerebellum is initially detectable by weaning and widespread by P60. Phosphatase activity toward phosphoinositol substrates is reduced in the mutant relative to littermates. The ataxic phenotype and characteristics neurodegeneration of the Inpp5a (Gt(OST50073)Lex) mouse indicate a crucial role for Inpp5a in PC survival. The identification of the molecular basis of the selective PC survival will be important in defining a neuroprotective gene applicable to establishing a disease mechanism.

Abstract
One of the most developed theories of phospholipid homeostasis is the intrinsic curvature hypothesis, which, in broad terms, postulates that cells regulate their lipid composition so as to keep constant the membrane stored curvature elastic energy. The implication of this hypothesis is that lipid composition is determined by a ratio control function consisting of the weighted sum of concentrations of type II lipids in the numerator and the weighted sum of concentrations of Type 0 lipids in the denominator. In previous work we used a data-driven approach, based on lipidomic data from asynchronous cell cultures, to determine a criterion that allows the different lipid species to be assigned to the set of type 0 or of type II lipids, and hence construct a ratio control function that serves as a proxy for the lipid contribution to total membrane stored curvature elastic energy in vivo. Here we apply the curvature elastic energy proxy to the analysis of lipid composition data from synchronous HeLa cells as they traverse the cell cycle. Our analysis suggests HeLa cells modify their membrane stored elastic energy through the cell cycle. In S-phase type 0 lipids are the most abundant, whilst in G2 type II lipids are most abundant. Changes in our proxy for membrane stored elastic energy correlate with membrane curvature dependent processes in the HeLa cell around division, providing some insights into the interplay between the individual lipid and protein contributions to membrane free energy.

Abstract
Tumorigenesis is the process by which normal cells evolve the capacity to evade and overcome the constraints usually placed upon their growth and survival. To ensure the integrity of organs and tissues, the balance of cell proliferation and cell death is tightly maintained. The proteins controlling this balance are either considered oncogenes, which promote tumorigenesis, or tumor suppressors, which prevent tumorigenesis. Phosphoinositide 3-kinase enhancer (PIKE) is a family of GTP-binding proteins that possess anti-apoptotic functions and play an important role in the central nervous system. Notably, accumulating evidence suggests that PIKE is a proto-oncogene involved in tumor progression. The PIKE gene (CENTG1) is amplified in a variety of human cancers, leading to the resistance against apoptosis and the enhancement of invasion. In this review, we will summarize the functions of PIKE proteins in tumorigenesis and discuss their potential implications in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PIs) make up only a small fraction of cellular phospholipids, yet they control almost all aspects of a cell's life and death. These lipids gained tremendous research interest as plasma membrane signaling molecules when discovered in the 1970s and 1980s. Research in the last 15 years has added a wide range of biological processes regulated by PIs, turning these lipids into one of the most universal signaling entities in eukaryotic cells. PIs control organelle biology by regulating vesicular trafficking, but they also modulate lipid distribution and metabolism via their close relationship with lipid transfer proteins. PIs regulate ion channels, pumps, and transporters and control both endocytic and exocytic processes. The nuclear phosphoinositides have grown from being an epiphenomenon to a research area of its own. As expected from such pleiotropic regulators, derangements of phosphoinositide metabolism are responsible for a number of human diseases ranging from rare genetic disorders to the most common ones such as cancer, obesity, and diabetes. Moreover, it is increasingly evident that a number of infectious agents hijack the PI regulatory systems of host cells for their intracellular movements, replication, and assembly. As a result, PI converting enzymes began to be noticed by pharmaceutical companies as potential therapeutic targets. This review is an attempt to give an overview of this enormous research field focusing on major developments in diverse areas of basic science linked to cellular physiology and disease.

Abstract
Lipid signalling in human disease is an important field of investigation and stems from the fact that phosphoinositide signalling has been implicated in the control of nearly all the important cellular pathways including metabolism, cell cycle control, membrane trafficking, apoptosis and neuronal conduction. A distinct nuclear inositide signalling metabolism has been identified, thus defining a new role for inositides in the nucleus, which are now considered essential co-factors for several nuclear processes, including DNA repair, transcription regulation, and RNA dynamics. Deregulation of phoshoinositide metabolism within the nuclear compartment may contribute to disease progression in several disorders, such as chronic inflammation, cancer, metabolic, and degenerative syndromes. In order to utilize these very druggable pathways for human benefit there is a need to identify how nuclear inositides are regulated specifically within this compartment and what downstream nuclear effectors process and integrate inositide signalling cascades in order to specifically control nuclear function. Here we describe some of the facets of nuclear inositide metabolism with a focus on their relationship to cell cycle control and differentiation.

Abstract
The existence and function of inositide signaling in the nucleus is well documented and we know that the existence of the inositide cycle inside the nucleus has a biological role. An autonomous lipid-dependent signaling system, independently regulated from its plasma membrane counterpart, acts in the nucleus and modulates cell cycle progression and differentiation.We and others focused on PLCβ1, which is the most extensively investigated PLC isoform in the nuclear compartment. PLCβ1 is a key player in the regulation of nuclear inositol lipid signaling, and, as discussed above, its function could also be involved in nuclear structure because it hydrolyses PtdIns(4,5)P2, a well accepted regulator of chromatin remodelling. The evidence, in a number of patients with myelodysplastic syndromes, that the mono-allelic deletion of PLCβ1 is associated with an increased risk of developing acute myeloid leukemia paves the way for an entirely new field of investigation. Indeed the genetic defect evidenced, in addition to being a useful prognostic tool, also suggests that altered expression of this enzyme could have a role in the pathogenesis of this disease, by causing an imbalance between proliferation and apoptosis. The epigenetics of PLCβ1 expression in MDS has been reviewed as well.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol phosphates (PtdInsPs) are present within the nucleus, as well as in the membrane. In this mass spectrometry study, different acyl-containing species of endonuclear PtdInsPs were analyzed in order to clearly understand the role of individual molecular species. A (34:1) acyl-containing phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate [PtdInsP(2)(34:1)] and PtdInsP(2)(36:1) were preferentially detected in envelope-less nuclei prepared from various cultured human cells, while PtdInsP(2)(38:4) was not a major component within these nuclei. A significant amount of PtdInsP(2)(34:0) was detected in the HeLa cell nucleus, but not in the A431 and THP-1 cell nuclei. During the cell cycle in HeLa cells, PtdInsP(2)(34:0) levels increased in the early G1 phase, and then gradually decreased through S phase, while PtdInsP(2)(34:1) levels tended to decrease only in late G1 phase and PtdInsP(2)(38:4) did not change significantly. Thus, individual PtdInsP(2) species apparently play different roles in nuclear events based on individual regulation of endonuclear levels. The non-arachidonate-containing species were also detected in normal human blood and fluids, suggesting that these minor species may have unique functions in the human body. The techniques used in this study will be applied to clinical studies on a PtdInsPs metabolism.

Abstract
While the presence of phosphoinositides in the nuclei of eukaryotes and the identity of the enzymes responsible for their metabolism have been known for some time, their functions in the nucleus are only now emerging. This is illustrated by the recent identification of effectors for nuclear phosphoinositides. Like the cytosolic phosphoinositide signaling pathway, nuclear phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI4,5P(2)) is at the center of the pathway and acts both as a messenger and as a precursor for many additional messengers. Here, recent advances in the understanding of nuclear phosphoinositide signaling and its functions are reviewed with an emphasis on PI4,5P(2) and its role in gene expression. The compartmentalization of nuclear phosphoinositide phosphates (PIP(n)) remains a mystery, but emerging evidence suggests that phosphoinositides occupy several functionally distinct compartments.

Abstract
Messenger RNA export from the nucleus to the cytoplasm plays an essential role in linking transcription to translation and consequently regulation of protein expression. mRNA export requires a series of events: pre-mRNA processing, ribonucleoprotein targeting to the NPC (nuclear pore complexes), and translocation through nuclear pores to the cytoplasm. Interestingly, the conventional nuclear export machinery, exportins and the Ran GTPase, is not required for mRNA export. Instead, a protein complex consisting of a number of RNA binding proteins is essential for this event including the Aly/REF protein. Phosphoinositide signaling regulates a variety of cellular functions including pre-mRNA splicing and mRNA export. In fact, a phospholipase C-dependent inositol polyphosphate kinase pathway is required for efficient mRNA export. Recently, we showed that Aly is a physiological target of nuclear phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) signaling, which regulates Aly localization as well as Aly function in cell proliferation and mRNA export through nuclear Akt-mediated phosphorylation and phosphoinositide association. Hence, water-soluble inositol polyphosphates and phosphatidylinositol lipids play pivotal roles in modulating mRNA export.

Abstract
Nuclear PI3K and its downstream effectors play essential roles in a variety of cellular activities including cell proliferation, survival, differentiation, and pre-mRNA splicing. Aly is a nuclear speckle protein implicated in mRNA export. Here we show that Aly is a physiological target of nuclear PI3K signaling, which regulates its subnuclear residency, cell proliferation, and mRNA export activities through nuclear Akt phosphorylation and phosphoinositide association. Nuclear Akt phosphorylates Aly on threonine-219, which is required for its interaction with Akt. Aly binds phosphoinositides, and this action is regulated by Akt-mediated phosphorylation. Phosphoinositide binding but not Akt phosphorylation dictates Aly's nuclear speckle residency. Depletion of Aly results in cell growth suppression and mRNA export reduction. Inhibition of Aly phosphorylation substantially decreases cell proliferation and mRNA export. Furthermore, disruption of phosphoinositide association with Aly also significantly reduces these activities. Thus, nuclear PI3K signaling mediates both cell proliferation and mRNA export functions of Aly.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PIPs) are ubiquitous regulators of signal transduction events in eukaryotic cells. PIPs are degraded by various enzymes, including PIP phosphatases. The integral membrane Sac1 phosphatases represent a major class of such enzymes. The central role of lipid phosphatases in regulating PIP homeostasis notwithstanding, the biological functions of Sac1-phosphatases remain poorly characterized. Herein, we demonstrate that functional ablation of the single murine Sac1 results in preimplantation lethality in the mouse and that Sac1 insufficiencies result in disorganization of mammalian Golgi membranes and mitotic defects characterized by multiple mechanically active spindles. Complementation experiments demonstrate mutant mammalian Sac1 proteins individually defective in either phosphoinositide phosphatase activity, or in recycling of the enzyme from the Golgi system back to the endoplasmic reticulum, are nonfunctional proteins in vivo. The data indicate Sac1 executes an essential household function in mammals that involves organization of both Golgi membranes and mitotic spindles and that both enzymatic activity and endoplasmic reticulum localization are important Sac1 functional properties.

Abstract
The phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP) kinases are a unique family of enzymes that generate an assortment of lipid messengers, including the pivotal second messenger phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI4,5P2). While members of the PIP kinase family function by catalyzing a similar phosphorylation reaction, the specificity loop of each PIP kinase subfamily determines substrate preference and partially influences distinct subcellular targeting. Specific protein-protein interactions that are unique to particular isoforms or splice variants play a key role in targeting PIP kinases to appropriate subcellular compartments to facilitate the localized generation of PI4,5P2 proximal to effectors, a mechanism key for the function of PI4,5P2 as a second messenger. This review documents the discovery of the PIP kinases and their signaling products, and summarizes our current understanding of the mechanisms underlying the localized generation of PI4,5P2 by PIP kinases for the regulation of cellular events including actin cytoskeleton dynamics, vesicular trafficking, cell migration, and an assortment of nuclear events.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide-3-kinase enhancers (PIKE) are GTP-binding proteins that posses anti-apoptotic functions. The PIKE family includes three members, PIKE-L, PIKE-S and PIKE-A, which are originated from a single gene (CENTG1) through alternative splicing or differential transcription initiation. Both PIKE-S and PIKE-L bind to phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) and enhance its activity. PIKE-A does not interplay with PI3K. Instead, it interacts with the downstream effector Akt and promotes its activity. These actions are mediated by their GTPase activity. Because both PI3K and Akt are important effectors in the growth factor-mediated signaling which triggers cellular growth and acts against apoptosis, PIKEs therefore serve as the molecular switch that their activation are crucial for growth factors to exert their physiological functions. In this review, the current understanding of different PIKE isoforms in growth factors-induced anti-apoptotic function will be discussed. Moreover, the role of PIKE in the survival and invasion activity of cancer cells will also be introduced.

Abstract
Endothelial cell dysfunction and apoptosis are critical in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). Both endothelial cell apoptosis and atherosclerosis are reduced by high-density lipoprotein (HDL). Low HDL levels increase the risk of CVD and are also a key characteristic of the metabolic syndrome. The apolipoprotein E4 (APOE4) allele also increases the risk of atherosclerosis and CVD. We previously demonstrated that the antiapoptotic activity of HDL is inhibited by APOE4 very-low-density lipoprotein (APOE4-VLDL) in endothelial cells, an effect similar to reducing the levels of HDL. Here we establish the intracellular mechanism by which APOE4-VLDL inhibits the antiapoptotic pathway activated by HDL. We show that APOE4-VLDL diminishes the phosphorylation of Akt by HDL but does not alter phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase, p38, or Src family kinases by HDL. Furthermore APOE4-VLDL inhibits Akt phosphorylation by reducing the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase product phosphatidylinositol-(3,4,5)-triphosphate (PI[3,4,5]P3). We further demonstrate that APOE4-VLDL reduces PI(3,4,5)P3, through the phosphoinositol phosphatase SHIP2, and not through PTEN. SHIP2 is already implicated as an independent risk factor for type II diabetes, hypertension and obesity, which are also all components of the metabolic syndrome and independent risk factors for CVD. Significantly, the association between CVD and type 2 diabetes or hypertension is further increased by the APOE4 allele. Therefore the activation of SHIP2 by APOE4-VLDL, with the subsequent inhibition of the HDL/Akt pathway, is a novel and significant biological mechanism and may be a critical intermediate by which APOE4 increases the risk of atherosclerotic CVD.

Abstract
The plant homeodomain (PHD) zinc finger is one of 14 known zinc-binding domains. PHD domains have been found in more than 400 eukaryotic proteins and are characterized by a Cys(4)-His-Cys(3) zinc-binding motif that spans 50-80 residues. The precise function of PHD domains is currently unknown; however, the PHD domains of the ING1 and ING2 tumor suppressors have been shown recently to bind phosphoinositides (PIs). We have recently identified a novel PHD-containing protein, Pf1, as a binding partner for the abundant and ubiquitous transcriptional corepressor mSin3A. Pf1 contains two PHD zinc fingers, PHD1 and PHD2, and functions to bridge mSin3A to the TLE1 corepressor. Here, we show that PHD1, but not PHD2, binds several monophosporylated PIs but most strongly to PI(3)P. Surprisingly, a polybasic region that follows the PHD1 is necessary for PI(3)P binding. Furthermore, this polybasic region binds specifically to PI(3)P when fused to maltose-binding protein, PHD2, or as an isolated peptide, demonstrating that it is sufficient for specific PI binding. By exchanging the polybasic regions between different PHD fingers we show that this region is a strong determinant of PI binding specificity. These findings establish the Pf1 polybasic region as a phosphoinositide-binding module and suggest that the PHD domains function down-stream of phosphoinositide signaling triggered by the interaction between polybasic regions and phosphoinositides.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (Ptdlns(3,4,5)P(3)) is linked to a variety of cellular functions, such as growth, cell survival, and differentiation. Ptdlns(3,4,5)P(3) is primarily synthesized by class I phosphoinositide 3-kinases and its hydrolysis by two 3-phosphoinositide 3-phosphatases, PTEN and SHIP proteins, leads to the production of two other second messengers, Ptdlns(4,5)P(2) and Ptdlns(3,4)P(2), respectively. Evidence accumulated over the last years strongly suggest that Ptdlns(3,4,5)P(3) is an important component of signaling pathway operating within the nucleus. Moreover, recent advances indicated that nuclear translocation of cell surface receptors could activate nuclear phosphoinositide 3-kinase suggesting a new mode of signal transduction. The aim of this review is intended to summarize the state of our knowledge on nuclear Ptdlns(3,4,5)P(3) and its metabolizing enzymes, and to highlight the emerging roles for intranuclear Ptdlns(3,4,5)P(3).

Abstract
The nuclear GTPase PIKE (PI 3-kinase Enhancer) binds PI 3-kinase and enhances it lipid kinase activity. PIKE predominantly distributes in the brain, and nerve growth factor stimulation triggers PIKE activation by provoking nuclear translocation of PLC-gamma1, which acts as a physiologic guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for PIKE through its SH3 domain. PIKE contains GTPase and ArfGAP domains, which are separated by a PH domain. C-terminal ArfGAP domain activates its internal GTPase activity, and this process is regulated by the interaction between phosphatidylinositols and PH domain. PI 3-kinase occurs in the nuclei of a broad range of cell types, and various stimuli elicit its nuclear translocation. The nuclei from NGF-treated PC12 cells are resistant to DNA fragmentation initiated by activated cell-free apoptosome, for which PIKE/nuclear PI 3-kinase signaling through nuclear PI(3,4,5)P(3) and Akt plays an essential role. As a nuclear receptor for PI(3,4,5)P(3,) B23 binds to PI(3,4,5)P(3) in an NGF-dependent way. The PI(3,4,5)P(3)/B23 complex inhibits DNA fragmentation activity of CAD. Nuclear Akt regulation of apoptosis is dependent on its phosphorylation of key substrates in the nucleus, but the identities of these substrates are unknown. Identification of its nuclear substrates will further our understanding of the physiological roles of nuclear PI 3-kinase/Akt signaling.

Abstract
The delta family phosphoinositide (PI)-specific phospholipase C (PLC) are most fundamental forms of eukaryotic PI-PLCs. Despite the presence of lipid targeting domains such as the PH domain and C2 domain, the isoforms are also found in the cytoplasm and nucleus as well as at the plasma membrane. The isoforms have sequences or regions that can serve as a nuclear localization signal (NLS) and a nuclear export signal (NES). Their intracellular localization differs from one isoform to another, presumably due to the difference in the transport equilibrium balanced by the strength of the two signals of each isoform. Even for a particular isoform, its intracellular localization seems to vary during the cell cycle. As an example, PLCdelta(1), which is generally found at the plasma membrane and in the cytoplasm of quiescent cells, localizes to discrete nuclear structures in the G(1)/S boundary of the cell cycle. This may be at least partly due to an increase in intracellular Ca(2+), since Ca(2+) facilitates the formation of a nuclear transport complex comprised of PLCdelta(1) and importin beta1, a carrier molecule for the nuclear import. PLCdelta(1) as well as PLCdelta(4) may play a pivotal role in controlling the initiation of DNA synthesis in S phase. Spatio-temporal changes in the levels of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) seem to be another major determinant for the localization and regulation of the delta isoforms. High nuclear PtdIns(4,5)P(2) levels are associated with the G(1)/S phases. After entering M phase, PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis at sites of cell division occurs and PLCs seem to localize to the cleavage furrow during cytokinesis. Coordinated translocation of PLCs with the cell cycle or with stress responses may result in changes in intra-nuclear environments and local membrane architectures that modulate proliferation and differentiation. In this review, recent findings regarding the molecular machineries and mechanisms of the nucleocytoplasmic shuttling as well as roles in the cell cycle progression of the delta isoforms of PLC will be discussed.

Abstract
Over the last decades, evidence has accumulated suggesting that there is a distinct nuclear phosphatidylinositol pathway. One of the best examined nuclear lipid pathways is the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI4,5P(2)) by PLC resulting in activation of nuclear PKC and production of inositol polyphosphates. However, there is a growing number of data that phosphoinositides are not only precursor for soluble inositol phosphates and diacylglycerol, instead they can act as second messengers themselves. They have been implicated to play a role in different important nuclear signaling events such as cell cycle progression, apoptosis, chromatin remodeling, transcriptional regulation and mRNA processing. This review focuses on the role of specifically PI4,5P(2) in the nucleus as a second messenger as well as a precursor for PI3,4,5P3, inositol polyphosphates and diacylglycerol.

Abstract
Diacylglycerol kinases (DGKs) convert diacylglycerol (DG) to phosphatidic acid, and both lipids are known to play important roles in lipid signal transduction. Thereby, DGKs are considered to be a one of the key players in lipid signaling, but its physiological function remains to be solved. In an effort to investigate one of nine subtypes, we found that DGKgamma came to be localized in the nucleus with time in all cell lines tested while seen only in the cytoplasm at the early stage of culture, indicating that DGKgamma is transported from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. The nuclear transportation of DGKgamma didn't necessarily need DGK activity, but its C1 domain was indispensable, suggesting that the C1 domain of DGKgamma acts as a nuclear transport signal. Furthermore, to address the function of DGKgamma in the nucleus, we produced stable cell lines of wild-type DGKgamma and mutants, including kinase negative, and investigated their cell size, growth rate, and cell cycle. The cells expressing the kinase-negative mutant of DGKgamma were larger in size and showed slower growth rate, and the S phase of the cells was extended. These findings implicate that nuclear DGKgamma regulates cell cycle.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PIs) and proteins involved in the PI signaling pathway are distributed in the nucleus as well as at the plasma membrane and in the cytoplasm, although their nuclear localization mechanisms have not been clarified in detail. Generally, proteins that shuttle between the cytoplasm and nucleus contain nuclear localization signal (NLS) and nuclear export signal (NES) sequences for nuclear import and export, respectively. They bind to specific carrier proteins of the importin/exportin family and are transported to and from the nucleus. Thus there is a steady state shuttling of the cargo molecules to and from the nucleus, and the shift in equilibrium determines their nuclear or cytoplasmic localization. Our previous studies have shown that phospholipase C (PLC)-delta1, regarded as having cytoplasmic- or plasma membrane-bound localization, accumulates in the nucleus when its NES sequence is disrupted. In addition, a cluster of positively charged residues on the surface of the catalytic barrel is important for nuclear import. In quiescent cells, the shuttling equilibrium seems to be shifted to the nuclear export of PLCdelta1. In this review, recent findings regarding the molecular machineries and mechanisms of the nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of PLCdelta1 will be discussed. It is important to know when and how they are regulated. A shift in the equilibrium in a certain stage of the cell cycle or by external stimuli is possible and resulting changes in the intra-nuclear environments (or architectures) may alter proliferation and differentiation patterns. Evidences support the idea that an increase in the levels of intracellular Ca2+ shifts the equilibrium to the nuclear import of PLCdelta1. A myriad of external stimuli have also been reported to change the nuclear PI metabolism following accelerated accumulation in the nucleus of other phospholipases such as phospholipase A2 and phospholipase D in addition to PLC isoforms such as PLCbeta1 and PLCgamma1. The consequence of the nuclear accumulation of PLC is also discussed.

Abstract
Nuclear phosphoinositides, especially phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, fluctuate throughout the cell cycle and are linked to proliferation and differentiation. Here we report that phospholipase C-delta(1) accumulates in the nucleus at the G(1)/S boundary and in G(0) phases of the cell cycle. Furthermore, as wild-type protein accumulated in the nucleus, nuclear phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate levels were elevated 3-5-fold, whereas total levels were decreased compared with asynchronous cultures. To test whether phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate binding is important during this process, we introduced a R40D point mutation within the pleckstrin homology domain of phospholipase C-delta(1), which disables high affinity phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate binding, and found that nuclear translocation was significantly reduced at G(1)/S and in G(0). These results demonstrate a cell cycle-dependent compartmentalization of phospholipase C-delta(1) and support the idea that relative levels of phosphoinositides modulate the portioning of phosphoinositide-binding proteins between the nucleus and other compartments.

Abstract
In this study, the activity of nuclear phosphatidylinositol-specific phosholipase C (PI-PLC) was investigated in HL-60 cells blocked at G(2)/M phase by the addition of nocodazole, and released into medium as synchronously progressing cells. Two peaks of an increase in the nuclear PI-PLC activities were detected; an early peak reached a maximum at 1 h after release from the nocodazole block, and a second increase was detected at 8.5 h after the release. Immunoprecipitation studies indicated that the increase in the activity was due to the activation of the nuclear PI-PLC-beta(1). Western blot analysis demonstrated no changes in the level of both a and b splicing variants of PI-PLC-beta(1) in the nuclei of cells isolated at either 1 h or 8.5 h after the block. However, an increase in the serine-phosphorylation of PI-PLC-beta(1b) was detected in the nuclei of HL-60 cells isolated at 1 and 8.5 h after the block, and the presence of MEK-inhibitor PD98059 completely inhibited both the serine phosphorylation and the increase in the PI-PLC activities in vitro. The presence of PI-PLC inhibitor prevented the progression of HL-60 cells through the G(1) into S phase of the cell cycle. These results demonstrate that two peaks of nuclear PI-PLC activities, which are due to a PD98059-sensitive phosphorylation of nuclear PLC-beta(1b) on serine, occur at the G(2)/M and late G(1) phase and are necessary for the progression of the cells through the cell cycle.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase enhancer (PIKE) is a brain-specific GTPase that binds to PI 3-kinase and stimulates its lipid kinase activity. It exists in two forms: the first to be identified, PIKE-S, is shorter and exclusively nuclear; by contrast, the longer form, PIKE-L, resides in multiple intracellular compartments. Nerve growth factor treatment leads to PIKE-S activation by triggering the nuclear translocation of phospholipase C (PLC)-γ1, which acts as a physiological guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for PIKE-S through its Src-homlogy 3 (SH3) domain. Cytoplasmic PI 3-kinase and its lipid product phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3] regulate the membrane translocation and activation of many signaling molecules by binding to their pleckstrin homology (PH) domains. However, little is known about the physiological roles of their nuclear counterparts. The nuclear PLC-γ1/PIKE-S/PI 3-kinase signaling pathway seems to be an extension of the crosstalk between cytoplasmic PLC-γ1 and PI 3-kinase. PIKE-L contains a C-terminal extension consisting of an ADP ribosylation-GTPase-activating protein (ArfGAP) domain and two ankyrin repeats in addition to the N-terminal GTPase domain. PIKE-L could have additional, extranuclear functions, including regulation of postsynaptic signaling by metabotropic glutamate receptors.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides are minor components of biological membranes, which have emerged as essential regulators of a variety of cellular processes, both on the plasma membrane and on several intracellular organelles. The versatility of these lipids stems from their ability to function either as substrates for the generation of second messengers, as membrane-anchoring sites for cytosolic proteins or as regulators of the actin cytoskeleton. Despite a vast literature demonstrating the presence of phosphoinositides in the nucleus, only recently has the function(s) of the nuclear pool of these lipids and their soluble analogues, inositol polyphosphates, started to emerge. These compounds have been shown to serve as essential co-factors for several nuclear processes, including DNA repair, transcription regulation and RNA dynamics. In this light, phosphoinositides and inositol polyphosphates might represent high turnover activity switches for nuclear complexes responsible for these processes. The regulation of these large machineries would be linked to the phosphorylation state of the inositol ring and limited temporally and spatially based on the synthesis and degradation of these molecules.

Abstract
During the past twenty years, evidence has accumulated for the presence of phospholipids within the nuclei of eukaryotic cells. These phospholipids are distinct from those that are obviously present in the nuclear envelope. The best characterized of the intranuclear lipids are the inositol lipids that form the components of a phosphoinositide-phospholipase C cycle. However, exactly as has been discovered in the cytoplasm, this is just part of a complex picture that involves many other lipids and functions.

Abstract
The activity of nuclear phosphoinositide 3-kinase C2beta (PI3K-C2beta) was investigated in HL-60 cells blocked by aphidicolin at G(1)/S boundary and allowed to progress synchronously through the cell cycle. The activity of immunoprecipitated PI3K-C2beta in the nuclei and nuclear envelopes showed peak activity at 8 h after release from the G(1)/S block, which correlates with G(2)/M phase of the cell cycle. In the nuclei and nuclear envelopes isolated from HL-60 cells at 8 h after release from G(1)/S block, a significant increase in the level of incorporation of radiolabeled phosphate into phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns(3)P) was observed with no change in the level of radiolabeled PtdIns(4)P, PtdIns(4,5)P(2) and PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3). On Western blots, PI3K-C2beta revealed a single immunoreactive band of 180 kDa, whereas in the nuclei and nuclear envelopes isolated at 8 h after release, the gel shift of 18 kDa was observed. When nuclear envelopes were treated for 20 min with mu-calpain in vitro, the similar gel shift and increase in PI3K-C2beta activity was observed which was completely inhibited by pretreatment with calpain inhibitor calpeptin. The presence of PI3K inhibitor LY 294002 completely abolished the calpain-mediated increase in the activity of PI3K-C2beta but did not prevent the gel shift. When HL-60 cells were released from G(1)/S block in the presence of either calpeptin or LY 294002, the activation of nuclear PI3K-C2beta was completely inhibited. These results demonstrate the calpain-mediated activation of the nuclear PI3K-C2beta during G(2)/M phase of the cell cycle in HL-60 cells.

Abstract
Abundant evidence now supports the existence of phospholipids in the nucleus that resist washing of nuclei with detergents. These lipids are apparently not in the nuclear envelope as part of a bilayer membrane, but are actually within the nucleus in the form of proteolipid complexes with unidentified proteins. This review discusses the experimental evidence that attempts to explain their existence. Among these nuclear lipids are the polyphosphoinositol lipids which, together with the enzymes that synthesize them, form an intranuclear phospholipase C (PI-PLC) signaling system that generates diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3]. The isoforms of PI-PLC that are involved in this signaling system, and how they are regulated, are not yet entirely clear. Generation of DAG within the nucleus is believed to recruit protein kinase C (PKC) to the nucleus to phosphorylate intranuclear proteins. Generation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 may mobilize Ca2+ from the space between the nuclear membranes and thus increase nucleoplasmic Ca2+. Less well understood are the increasing number of variations and complications on the "simple" idea of a PI-PLC system. These include, all apparently within the nucleus, (i) two routes of synthesis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2]; (ii) two sources of DAG, one from the PI-PLC pathway and the other probably from phosphatidylcholine; (iii) several isoforms of PKC translocating to nuclei; (iv) increases in activity of the PI-PLC pathway at two points in the cell cycle; (v) a pathway of phosphorylation of Ins(1,4,5)P3, which may have several functions, including a role in the transfer of mRNA out of the nucleus; and (vi) the possible existence of other lipid signaling pathways that may include sphingolipids, phospholipase A2, and, in particular, 3-phosphorylated inositol lipids, which are now emerging as possible major players in nuclear signaling.

Abstract
Whereas most phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase (PtdIns 4-kinase) activity is localized in the cytoplasm, PtdIns 4-kinase activity has also been detected in membranedepleted nuclei of rat liver and mouse NIH 3T3 cells. Here we have characterized the PtdIns 4-kinase that is present in nuclei from NIH 3T3 cells. Both type II and type III PtdIns 4-kinase activity were observed in the detergent-insoluble fraction of NIH 3T3 cells. Dissection of this fraction into cytoplasmic actin filaments and nuclear lamina-pore complexes revealed that the actin filament fraction contains solely type II PtdIns 4-kinase,whereas lamina-pore complexes contain type III PtdIns 4-kinase activity. Using specific antibodies, the nuclear PtdIns 4-kinase was identified as PtdIns 4-kinase β. Inhibition of nuclear export by leptomycin B resulted in an accumulation of PtdIns 4-kinase β in the nucleus. These data demonstrate that PtdIns 4-kinase β is present in the nuclei of NIH 3T3 fibroblasts,suggesting a specific function for this kinase in nuclear processes.

Abstract
Inositide signaling at the plasma membrane has been implicated in the regulation of numerous cellular processes including cytoskeletal dynamics, vesicle trafficking, and gene transcription. Studies have also shown that a distinct inositide pathway exists in nuclei, where it may regulate nuclear processes such as mRNA export, cell cycle progression, gene transcription, and DNA repair. We previously demonstrated that nuclear PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis is stimulated during progression from G1 through S phase, although mechanistic details of how cell cycle progression impinges on the regulation of nuclear inositides is unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that pRB, which regulates progression of cells from G1 through S phase interacts both in vitro and in vivo with Type I PIPkinases, the enzymes responsible for nuclear PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis. Moreover, this interaction stimulates the activity of Type Ialpha PIPkinase in an in vitro assay. Using murine erythroleukamia (MEL) cells expressing a temperature-sensitive mutant of large T antigen (LTA), we demonstrate changes in vivo in nuclear PtdIns(4,5)P(2) levels that are consistent with the ability of LTA to disrupt pRB/Type I interactions. This study, for the first time, provides a potential mechanism for how cell cycle progression could regulate the levels of nuclear inositides.

Abstract
Previous results have shown that the human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cell line responds to either proliferating or differentiating stimuli. When these cells are induced to proliferate, protein kinase C (PKC)-beta II migrates toward the nucleus, whereas when they are exposed to differentiating agents, there is a nuclear translocation of the alpha isoform of PKC. As a step toward the elucidation of the early intranuclear events that regulate the proliferation or the differentiation process, we show that in the HL-60 cells, a proliferating stimulus (i.e., insulin-like growth factor-I [IGF-I]) increased nuclear diacylglycerol (DAG) production derived from phosphatidylinositol (4,5) bisphosphate, as indicated by the inhibition exerted by 1-O-octadeyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and U-73122 (1-[6((17 beta-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-yl)amino)hexyl]-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione), which are pharmacological inhibitors of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C. In contrast, when HL-60 cells were induced to differentiate along the granulocytic lineage by dimethyl sulfoxide, we observed a rise in the nuclear DAG mass, which was sensitive to either neomycin or propranolol, two compounds with inhibitory effect on phospholipase D (PLD)-mediated DAG generation. In nuclei of dimethyl sulfoxide-treated HL-60 cells, we observed a rise in the amount of a 90-kDa PLD, distinct from PLD1 or PLD2. When a phosphatidylinositol (4,5) bisphosphate-derived DAG pool was generated in the nucleus, a selective translocation of PKC-beta II occurred. On the other hand, nuclear DAG derived through PLD, recruited PKC-alpha to the nucleus. Both of these PKC isoforms were phosphorylated on serine residues. These results provide support for the proposal that in the HL-60 cell nucleus there are two independently regulated sources of DAG, both of which are capable of acting as the driving force that attracts to this organelle distinct, DAG-dependent PKC isozymes. Our results assume a particular significance in light of the proposed use of pharmacological inhibitors of PKC-dependent biochemical pathways for the therapy of cancer disease.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide turnover regulates multiple cellular processes. Compared with their well-known cytosolic roles, limited information is available on the functions of nuclear phosphoinositides. Here, we show that phosphatidylinositol(4,5)-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) stably associates with electron-dense particles within the nucleus that resemble interchromatin granule clusters. These PtdIns(4,5)P2-containing structures have a distribution which is cell-cycle dependent and contain components of both the transcriptional and pre-mRNA processing machinery, including RNA polymerase II and the splicing factor SC-35. Immunodepletion and add-back experiments demonstrate that PtdIns(4,5)P2 and associated factors are necessary but not sufficient for pre-mRNA splicing in vitro, indicating a crucial role for PtdIns(4,5)P2-containing complexes in nuclear pre-mRNA processing.

Abstract
Recent studies highlight the existence of an autonomous nuclear polyphosphoinositide metabolism related to cellular proliferation and differentiation. However, only few data document the nuclear production of the putative second messengers, the 3-phosphorylated phosphoinositides, by the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). In the present paper, we examine whether GTP-binding proteins can directly modulate 3-phosphorylated phosphoinositide metabolism in membrane-free nuclei isolated from pig aorta smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). In vitro PI3K assays performed without the addition of any exogenous substrates revealed that guanosine 5'-(gamma-thio)triphosphate (GTPgammaS) specifically stimulated the nuclear synthesis of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)), whereas guanosine 5'-(beta-thio)diphosphate was ineffective. PI3K inhibitors wortmannin and LY294002 prevented GTPgammaS-induced PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) synthesis. Moreover, pertussis toxin inhibited partially PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) accumulation, suggesting that nuclear G(i)/G(0) proteins are involved in the activation of PI3K. Immunoblot experiments showed the presence of Galpha(0) proteins in VSMC nuclei. In contrast with previous reports, immunoblots and indirect immunofluorescence failed to detect the p85alpha subunit of the heterodimeric PI3K within VSMC nuclei. By contrast, we have detected the presence of a 117-kDa protein immunologically related to the PI3Kgamma. These results indicate the existence of a G protein-activated PI3K inside VSMC nucleus that might be involved in the control of VSMC proliferation and in the pathogenesis of vascular proliferative disorders.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide signaling resides in the nucleus, and among the enzymes of the cycle, phospholipase C (PLC) appears as the key element both in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and in mammalian cells. The yeast PLC pathway produces multiple inositol polyphosphates that modulate distinct nuclear processes. The mammalian PLCbeta(1), which localizes in the nucleus, is activated in insulin-like growth factor 1-mediated mitogenesis and undergoes down-regulation during murine erythroleukemia differentiation. PLCbeta(1) exists as two polypeptides of 150 and 140 kDa generated from a single gene by alternative RNA splicing, both of them containing in the COOH-terminal tail a cluster of lysine residues responsible for nuclear localization. These clues prompted us to try to establish the critical nuclear target(s) of PLCbeta(1) subtypes in the control of cell cycle progression. The results reveal that the two subtypes of PLCbeta(1) that localize in the nucleus induce cell cycle progression in Friend erythroleukemia cells. In fact when they are overexpressed in the nucleus, cyclin D3, along with its kinase (cdk4) but not cyclin E is overexpressed even though cells are serum-starved. As a consequence of this enforced expression, retinoblastoma protein is phosphorylated and E2F-1 transcription factor is activated as well. On the whole the results reveal a direct effect of nuclear PLCbeta(1) signaling in G(1) progression by means of a specific target, i.e. cyclin D3/cdk4.
