Abstract
Maintaining lipid composition diversity in membranes from different organelles is critical for numerous cellular processes. However, many lipids are synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and require delivery to other organelles. In this scenario, formation of membrane contact sites (MCS) between neighbouring organelles has emerged as a novel non-vesicular lipid transport mechanism. Dissecting the molecular composition of MCS identified phosphoinositides (PIs), cholesterol, scaffolding/tethering proteins as well as Ca2+ and Ca2+-binding proteins contributing to MCS functioning. Compelling evidence now exists for the shuttling of PIs and cholesterol across MCS, affecting their concentrations in distinct membrane domains and diverse roles in membrane trafficking. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) at the plasma membrane (PM) not only controls endo-/exocytic membrane dynamics but is also critical in autophagy. Cholesterol is highly concentrated at the PM and enriched in recycling endosomes and Golgi membranes. MCS-mediated cholesterol transfer is intensely researched, identifying MCS dysfunction or altered MCS partnerships to correlate with de-regulated cellular cholesterol homeostasis and pathologies. Annexins, a conserved family of Ca2+-dependent phospholipid binding proteins, contribute to tethering and untethering events at MCS. In this chapter, we will discuss how Ca2+ homeostasis and annexins in the endocytic compartment affect the sensing and transfer of cholesterol and PIs across MCS.

Abstract
The biochemical machinery involved in matrix vesicles-mediated bone mineralization involves a specific set of lipids, enzymes, and proteins. Annexins, among their many functions, have been described as responsible for the formation and stabilization of the matrix vesicles′ nucleational core. However, the specific role of each member of the annexin family, especially in the presence of type-I collagen, remains to be clarified. To address this issue, in vitro mineralization was carried out using AnxA6 (in solution or associated to the proteoliposomes) in the presence or in the absence of type-I collagen, incubated with either amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) or a phosphatidylserine-calcium phosphate complex (PS–CPLX) as nucleators. Proteoliposomes were composed of 1,2-dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), 1,2-dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine: 1,2-dipalmitoylphosphatidylserine (DPPC:DPPS), and DPPC:Cholesterol:DPPS to mimic the outer and the inner leaflet of the matrix vesicles membrane as well as to investigate the effect of the membrane fluidity. Kinetic parameters of mineralization were calculated from time-dependent turbidity curves of free Annexin A6 (AnxA6) and AnxA6-containing proteoliposomes dispersed in synthetic cartilage lymph. The chemical composition of the minerals formed was investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Free AnxA6 and AnxA6-proteoliposomes in the presence of ACP were not able to propagate mineralization; however, poorly crystalline calcium phosphates were formed in the presence of PS–CPLX, supporting the role of annexin-calcium-phosphatidylserine complex in the formation and stabilization of the matrix vesicles’ nucleational core. We found that AnxA6 lacks nucleation propagation capacity when incorporated into liposomes in the presence of PS–CPLX and type-I collagen. This suggests that AnxA6 may interact either with phospholipids, forming a nucleational core, or with type-I collagen, albeit less efficiently, to induce the nucleation process.

Abstract
Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) disease is a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by cholesterol accumulation caused by loss-of-function mutations in the Npc1 gene. NPC disease primarily affects the brain, causing neuronal damage and affecting motor coordination. In addition, considerable liver malfunction in NPC disease is common. Recently, we found that the depletion of annexin A6 (ANXA6), which is most abundant in the liver and involved in cholesterol transport, ameliorated cholesterol accumulation in Npc1 mutant cells. To evaluate the potential contribution of ANXA6 in the progression of NPC disease, double-knockout mice (Npc1-/-/Anxa6-/-) were generated and examined for lifespan, neurologic and hepatic functions, as well as liver histology and ultrastructure. Interestingly, lack of ANXA6 in NPC1-deficient animals did not prevent the cerebellar degeneration phenotype, but further deteriorated their compromised hepatic functions and reduced their lifespan. Moreover, livers of Npc1-/-/Anxa6-/- mice contained a significantly elevated number of foam cells congesting the sinusoidal space, a feature commonly associated with inflammation. We hypothesize that ANXA6 deficiency in Npc1-/- mice not only does not reverse neurologic and motor dysfunction, but further worsens overall liver function, exacerbating hepatic failure in NPC disease.

Abstract
Background Autophagy is an intracellular degradation pathway conserved in eukaryotes. ANXA6 (annexin A6) belongs to a family of calcium‐dependent membrane and phospholipid‐binding proteins. Here, we identify ANXA6 as a newly synthesized protein in starvation‐induced autophagy and validate it as a novel autophagy modulator that regulates autophagosome formation. Results ANXA6 knockdown attenuates starvation‐induced autophagy, while restoration of its expression enhances autophagy. GO (gene ontology) analysis of ANXA6 targets showed that ANXA6 interacts with many RAB GTPases and targets endocytosis and phagocytosis pathways, indicating that ANXA6 exerts its function through protein trafficking. ATG9A (autophagy‐related 9A) is the sole multispanning transmembrane protein and its trafficking through recycling endosomes is an essential step for autophagosome formation. Our results showed that ANXA6 enables appropriate ATG9A+ vesicle trafficking from endosomes to autophagosomes through RAB proteins or F‐actin. In addition, restoration of ANXA6 expression suppresses mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) activity through the inhibition of the PI3K (phosphoinositide 3‐kinase)‐AKT and ERK (extracellular signal‐regulated kinase) signaling pathways, which is a negative regulator of autophagy. Functionally, ANXA6 expression is correlated with LC3 (microtubule‐associated protein 1 light chain 3) expression in cervical cancer, and ANXA6 inhibits tumorigenesis through autophagy induction. Conclusions Our results reveal an important mechanism for ANXA6 in tumor suppression and autophagy regulation.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), and exosomes in particular, were initially considered as "garbage bags" for secretion of undesired cellular components. This view has changed considerably over the last two decades, and exosomes have now emerged as important organelles controlling cell-to-cell signaling. They are present in biological fluids and have important roles in the communication between cells in physiological and pathological processes. They are envisioned for clinical use as carriers of biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and vehicles for drug delivery. Important efforts are being made to characterize the contents of these vesicles and to understand the mechanisms that govern their biogenesis and modes of action. This chapter aims to recapitulate the place given to lipids in our understanding of exosome biology. Besides their structural role and their function as carriers, certain lipids and lipid-modifying enzymes seem to exert privileged functions in this mode of cellular communication. By extension, the use of selective "lipid inhibitors" might turn out to be interesting modulators of exosomal-based cell signaling.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles released by viable cells (exosomes and microvesicles) have emerged as important organelles supporting cell-cell communication. Because of their potential therapeutic significance, important efforts are being made toward characterizing the contents of these vesicles and the mechanisms that govern their biogenesis. It has been recently demonstrated that the lipid modifying enzyme, phospholipase D (PLD)2, is involved in exosome production and acts downstream of the small GTPase, ARF6. This review aims to recapitulate our current knowledge of the role of PLD2 and its product, phosphatidic acid, in the biogenesis of exosomes and to propose hypotheses for further investigation of a possible central role of these molecules in the biology of these organelles.

Abstract
Despite the discovery of annexins 40 years ago, we are just beginning to understand some of the functions of these still enigmatic proteins. Defined and characterized by their ability to bind anionic membrane lipids in a Ca2+-dependent manner, each annexin has to be considered a multifunctional protein, with a multitude of cellular locations and diverse activities. Underlying causes for this considerable functional diversity include their capability to associate with multiple cytosolic and membrane proteins. In recent years, the increasingly recognized establishment of membrane contact sites between subcellular compartments opens a new scenario for annexins as instrumental players to link Ca2+ signalling with the integration of membrane trafficking in many facets of cell physiology. In this chapter, we review and discuss current knowledge on the contribution of annexins in the biogenesis and functioning of the late endocytic compartment, affecting endo- and exocytic pathways in a variety of physiological consequences ranging from membrane repair, lysosomal exocytosis, to cell migration.

Abstract
Annexin A6 (AnxA6) belongs to the conserved annexin family - a group of Ca2+-dependent membrane binding proteins. AnxA6 is the largest of all annexins and highly expressed in smooth muscle, hepatocytes, endothelial cells and cardiomyocytes. Upon activation, AnxA6 binds to negatively charged phospholipids in a wide range of intracellular localizations, in particular the plasma membrane, late endosomes/pre-lysosomes, but also synaptic vesicles and sarcolemma. In these cellular sites, AnxA6 is believed to contribute to the organization of membrane microdomains, such as cholesterol-rich lipid rafts and confer multiple regulatory functions, ranging from vesicle fusion, endocytosis and exocytosis to programmed cell death and muscle contraction. Growing evidence supports that Ca2+ and Ca2+-binding proteins control endocytosis and autophagy. Their regulatory role seems to operate at the level of the signalling pathways that initiate autophagy or at later stages, when autophagosomes fuse with endolysosomal compartments. The convergence of the autophagic and endocytic vesicles to lysosomes shares several features that depend on Ca2+ originating from lysosomes/late endosomes and seems to depend on proteins that are subsequently activated by this cation. However, the involvement of Ca2+ and its effector proteins in these autophagic and endocytic stages still remains poorly understood. Although AnxA6 makes up almost 0.25% of total protein in the liver, little is known about its function in hepatocytes. Within the endocytic route, we identified AnxA6 in endosomes and autophagosomes of hepatocytes. Hence, AnxA6 and possibly other annexins might represent new Ca2+ effectors that regulate converging steps of autophagy and endocytic trafficking in hepatocytes.

Abstract
Annexins are a family of proteins that bind to phospholipids in a calcium-dependent manner. Earlier studies implicated annexin A6 (AnxA6) to inhibit secretion and participate in the organization of the extracellular matrix. We recently showed that elevated AnxA6 levels significantly reduced secretion of the extracellular matrix protein fibronectin (FN). Because FN is directly linked to the ability of cells to migrate, this prompted us to investigate the role of AnxA6 in cell migration. Up-regulation of AnxA6 in several cell models was associated with reduced cell migration in wound healing, individual cell tracking and three-dimensional migration/invasion assays. The reduced ability of AnxA6-expressing cells to migrate was associated with decreased cell surface expression of αVβ3 and α5β1 integrins, both FN receptors. Mechanistically, we found that elevated AnxA6 levels interfered with syntaxin-6 (Stx6)-dependent recycling of integrins to the cell surface. AnxA6 overexpression caused mislocalization and accumulation of Stx6 and integrins in recycling endosomes, whereas siRNA-mediated AnxA6 knockdown did not modify the trafficking of integrins. Given our recent findings that inhibition of cholesterol export from late endosomes (LEs) inhibits Stx6-dependent integrin recycling and that elevated AnxA6 levels cause LE cholesterol accumulation, we propose that AnxA6 and blockage of LE cholesterol transport are critical for endosomal function required for Stx6-mediated recycling of integrins in cell migration.

Abstract
Biological membrane organization mediates numerous cellular functions and has also been connected with an immense number of human diseases. However, until recently, experimental methodologies have been unable to directly visualize the nanoscale details of biological membranes, particularly in intact living cells. Numerous models explaining membrane organization have been proposed, but testing those models has required indirect methods; the desire to directly image proteins and lipids in living cell membranes is a strong motivation for the advancement of technology. The development of super-resolution microscopy has provided powerful tools for quantification of membrane organization at the level of individual proteins and lipids, and many of these tools are compatible with living cells. Previously inaccessible questions are now being addressed, and the field of membrane biology is developing rapidly. This chapter discusses how the development of super-resolution microscopy has led to fundamental advances in the field of biological membrane organization. We summarize the history and some models explaining how proteins are organized in cell membranes, and give an overview of various super-resolution techniques and methods of quantifying super-resolution data. We discuss the application of super-resolution techniques to membrane biology in general, and also with specific reference to the fields of actin and actin-binding proteins, virus infection, mitochondria, immune cell biology, and phosphoinositide signaling. Finally, we present our hopes and expectations for the future of super-resolution microscopy in the field of membrane biology.

Abstract
Malfunctions in regulatory pathways that control cell size are prominent in pathological cardiac hypertrophy. Here, we show annexin A6 (Anxa6) to be a crucial regulator of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)-mediated counterhypertrophic responses in cardiomyocytes. Adrenergic stimulation of H9c2 cardiomyocytes by phenylephrine (PE) increased the cell size with enhanced expression of biochemical markers of hypertrophy, concomitant with elevated expression and subcellular redistribution of Anxa6. Stable cell lines with controlled increase in Anxa6 levels were protected against PE-induced adverse changes, whereas Anxa6 knockdown augmented the hypertrophic responses. Strikingly, Anxa6 knockdown also abrogated PE-induced juxtanuclear accumulation of secretory granules (SG) containing ANP propeptides (pro-ANP), a signature of maladaptive hypertrophy having counteractive functions. Mechanistically, PE treatment prompted a dynamic association of Anxa6 with pro-ANP-SG, parallel to their participation in anterograde traffic, in an isoform-specific fashion. Moreover, Anxa6 mutants that failed to associate with pro-ANP hindered ANP-mediated protection against hypertrophy, which was rescued, at least partially, by WT Anxa6. Additionally, elevated intracellular calcium (Ca(2+)) stimulated Anxa6-pro-ANP colocalization and membrane association. It also rescued pro-ANP translocation in cells expressing an Anxa6 mutant (Anxa6(ΔC)). Furthermore, stable overexpression of Anxa6(T356D), a mutant with superior flexibility, provided enhanced protection against PE, compared with WT, presumably due to enhanced membrane-binding capacity. Together, the present study delivers a cooperative mechanism where Anxa6 potentiates ANP-dependent counterhypertrophic responses in cardiomyocytes by facilitating regulated traffic of pro-ANP.

Abstract
Growing evidence suggests that membrane microdomains enriched in cholesterol and sphingomyelin are sites for numerous cellular processes, including signaling, vesicular transport, interaction with pathogens, and viral infection, etc. Recently some members of the annexin family of conserved calcium and membrane-binding proteins have been recognized as cholesterol-interacting molecules and suggested to play a role in the formation, stabilization, and dynamics of membrane microdomains to affect membrane lateral organization and to attract other proteins and signaling molecules onto their territory. Furthermore, annexins were implicated in the interactions between cytosolic and membrane molecules, in the turnover and storage of cholesterol and in various signaling pathways. In this review, we focus on the mechanisms of interaction of annexins with lipid microdomains and the role of annexins in membrane microdomains dynamics including possible participation of the domain-associated forms of annexins in the etiology of human lysosomal storage disease called Niemann-Pick type C disease, related to the abnormal storage of cholesterol in the lysosome-like intracellular compartment. The involvement of annexins and cholesterol/sphingomyelin-enriched membrane microdomains in other pathologies including cardiac dysfunctions, neurodegenerative diseases, obesity, diabetes mellitus, and cancer is likely, but is not supported by substantial experimental observations, and therefore awaits further clarification.

Abstract
Cholesterol regulates plasma membrane (PM) association and functioning of syntaxin-4 and soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein 23 (SNAP23) in the secretory pathway. However, the molecular mechanism and cellular cholesterol pools that determine the localization and assembly of these target membrane SNAP receptors (t-SNAREs) are largely unknown. We recently demonstrated that high levels of annexin A6 (AnxA6) induce accumulation of cholesterol in late endosomes, thereby reducing cholesterol in the Golgi and PM. This leads to an impaired supply of cholesterol needed for cytosolic phospholipase A2(cPLA2) to drive Golgi vesiculation and caveolin transport to the cell surface. Using AnxA6-overexpressing cells as a model for cellular cholesterol imbalance, we identify impaired cholesterol egress from late endosomes and diminution of Golgi cholesterol as correlating with the sequestration of SNAP23/syntaxin-4 in Golgi membranes. Pharmacological accumulation of late endosomal cholesterol and cPLA2inhibition induces a similar phenotype in control cells with low AnxA6 levels. Ectopic expression of Niemann-Pick C1 (NPC1) or exogenous cholesterol restores the location of SNAP23 and syntaxin-4 within the PM. Importantly, AnxA6-mediated mislocalization of these t-SNAREs correlates with reduced secretion of cargo via the SNAP23/syntaxin-4–dependent constitutive exocytic pathway. We thus conclude that inhibition of late endosomal export and Golgi cholesterol depletion modulate t-SNARE localization and functioning along the exocytic pathway.

Abstract
Annexin A6 (AnxA6) belongs to the conserved annexin protein family--a group of Ca(2+) -dependent membrane binding proteins. It is the largest of all annexin proteins and upon activation, binds to negatively charged phospholipids in the plasma membrane and endosomes. In addition, AnxA6 associates with cholesterol-rich membrane microdomains termed lipid rafts. Membrane cholesterol triggers Ca(2+) -independent translocation of AnxA6 to membranes and AnxA6 levels determine the number of caveolae, a form of specialized rafts at the cell surface. AnxA6 also has an F-actin binding domain and interacts with cytoskeleton components. Taken together, this suggests that AnxA6 has a scaffold function to link membrane microdomains with the organization of the cytoskeleton. Such a link facilitates AnxA6 to participate in plasma membrane repair and it would also impact on receptor signalling at the cell surface, growth factor, and lipoprotein receptor trafficking, Ca(2+) -channel activity and T cell activation. Hence, the regulation of cell surface receptors by AnxA6 may be facilitated by its unique structure that allows recruitment of interaction partners and simultaneously bridging specialized membrane domains with cortical actin surrounding activated receptors.

Abstract
Annexin A6 (AnxA6) belongs to a conserved family of Ca(2+)-dependent membrane-binding proteins. Like other annexins, the function of AnxA6 is linked to its ability to bind phospholipids in cellular membranes in a dynamic and reversible fashion, in particular during the regulation of endocytic and exocytic pathways. High amounts of AnxA6 sequester cholesterol in late endosomes, thereby lowering the levels of cholesterol in the Golgi and the plasma membrane. These AnxA6-dependent redistributions of cellular cholesterol pools give rise to reduced cytoplasmic phospholipase A2 (cPLA(2)) activity, retention of caveolin in the Golgi apparatus and a reduced number of caveolae at the cell surface. In addition to regulating cholesterol and caveolin distribution, AnxA6 acts as a scaffold/targeting protein for several signaling proteins, the best characterized being the Ca(2+)-dependent membrane targeting of p120GAP to downregulate Ras activity. AnxA6 also stimulates the Ca(2+)-inducible involvement of PKC in the regulation of HRas and possibly EGFR signal transduction pathways. The ability of AnxA6 to recruit regulators of the EGFR/Ras pathway is likely potentiated by AnxA6-induced actin remodeling. Accordingly, AnxA6 may function as an organizer of membrane domains (i) to modulate intracellular cholesterol homeostasis, (ii) to create a scaffold for the formation of multifactorial signaling complexes, and (iii) to regulate transient membrane-actin interactions during endocytic and exocytic transport. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: 11th European Symposium on Calcium.

Abstract
Annexin A6 (AnxA6) belongs to a family of Ca(2+)-dependent membrane-binding proteins and is involved in the regulation of endocytic and exocytic pathways. We previously demonstrated that AnxA6 regulates receptor-mediated endocytosis and lysosomal targeting of low-density lipoproteins and translocates to cholesterol-enriched late endosomes (LE). As cholesterol modulates the membrane binding and the cellular location of AnxA6, but also affects the intracellular distribution of caveolin, we investigated the localization and trafficking of caveolin in AnxA6-expressing cells. Here, we show that cells expressing high levels of AnxA6 are characterized by an accumulation of caveolin-1 (cav-1) in the Golgi complex. This is associated with a sequestration of cholesterol in the LE and lower levels of cholesterol in the Golgi and the plasma membrane, both likely contributing to retention of caveolin in the Golgi apparatus and a reduced number of caveolae at the cell surface. Further strengthening these findings, knock down of AnxA6 and the ectopic expression of the Niemann-Pick C1 protein in AnxA6-overexpressing cells restore the cellular distribution of cav-1 and cholesterol, respectively. In summary, this study demonstrates that elevated expression levels of AnxA6 perturb the intracellular distribution of cholesterol, which indirectly inhibits the exit of caveolin from the Golgi complex.

Abstract
Annexins are calcium- and phospholipid-binding proteins that have been proposed to have multiple roles in membrane traffic. Historically, this has been based on the in vitro properties of annexins and their localization to specific membrane compartments. However, recent functional evidence supports a role for annexins in specific membrane traffic steps, although the requirement for annexins may be highly dependent on the cellular context. Here we review the roles of annexins in traffic within the endocytic pathway, focusing on clathrin-dependent internalization from the plasma membrane, multivesicular endosome/body (MVB) biogenesis and MVB-lysosome fusion.

Abstract
We postulate the existence of a pH-sensitive domain in annexin A6 (AnxA6), on the basis of our observation of pH-dependent conformational and orientation changes of this protein and its N- (AnxA6a) and C-terminal (AnxA6b) halves in the presence of lipids. Brewster angle microscopy shows that AnxA6, AnxA6a, and AnxA6b in the absence of lipids accumulate at the air-water interface and form a stable, homogeneous layer at pH below 6.0. Under these conditions polarization modulation IR absorption spectroscopy reveals significant conformational changes of AnxA6a whereas AnxA6b preserves its alpha-helical structure. The orientation of protein alpha-helices is parallel with respect to the interface. In the presence of lipids, polarization modulation IR reflection absorption spectroscopy experiments suggest that AnxA6a incorporates into the lipid/air interface, whereas AnxA6b is adsorbed under the lipid monolayer. In this case AnxA6a regains its alpha-helical structures. At a higher pressure of the lipid monolayer the average orientation of the alpha-helices of AnxA6a changes from flat to tilted by 45 degrees with respect to normal to the membrane interface. For AnxA6b no such changes are detected, even at a high pressure of the lipid monolayer-suggesting that the putative pH-sensitive domain of AnxA6 is localized in the N-terminal half of the protein.

Abstract
The type V TGF-beta receptor (TbetaR-V) plays an important role in growth inhibition by IGFBP-3 and TGF-beta in responsive cells. Unexpectedly, TbetaR-V was recently found to be identical to the LRP-1/alpha(2)M receptor; this has disclosed previously unreported growth regulatory functions of LRP-1. Here we demonstrate that, in addition to expressing LRP-1, all cells examined exhibit low affinity but high density acidic pH binding sites for LRP-1 growth regulatory ligands (TGF-beta(1), IGFBP-3, and alpha(2)M(*)). These sites, like LRP-1, are sensitive to receptor-associated protein and calcium depletion but, unlike LRP-1, are also sensitive to chondroitin sulfate and heparin and capable of directly binding ligands, which do not bind to LRP-1. Annexin VI has been identified as a major membrane-associated protein capable of directly binding alpha(2)M(*) at acidic pH. This is evidenced by: 1) structural and Western blot analyses of the protein purified from bovine liver plasma membranes by alpha(2)M(*) affinity column chromatography at acidic pH, and 2) dot blot analysis of the interaction of annexin VI and (125)I-alpha(2)M(*). Cell surface annexin VI is involved in (125)I-TGF-beta(1) and (125)I-alpha(2)M(*) binding to the acidic pH binding sites and (125)I-alpha(2)M(*) binding to LRP-1 at neutral pH as demonstrated by the sensitivity of cells to pretreatment with anti-annexin VI IgG. Cell surface annexin VI is also capable of mediating internalization and degradation of cell surface-bound (125)I-TGF-beta(1) and (125)I-alpha(2)M(*) at pH 6 and of forming ternary complexes with (125)I-alpha(2)M(*) and LRP-1 at neutral pH as demonstrated by co-immunoprecipitation. Trifluoperazine and fluphenazine, which inhibit ligand binding to the acidic pH binding sites, block degradation after internalization of cell surface-bound (125)I-TGF-beta(1) or (125)I-alpha(2)M(*). These results suggest that cell surface annexin VI may function as an acidic pH binding site or receptor and may also function as a co-receptor with LRP-1 at neutral pH.

Abstract
Transcytosis, the vesicular transport of macromolecules from one side of a cell to the other, is a strategy used by multicellular organisms to selectively move material between two environments without altering the unique compositions of those environments. In this review, we summarize our knowledge of the different cell types using transcytosis in vivo, the variety of cargo moved, and the diverse pathways for delivering that cargo. We evaluate in vitro models that are currently being used to study transcytosis. Caveolae-mediated transcytosis by endothelial cells that line the microvasculature and carry circulating plasma proteins to the interstitium is explained in more detail, as is clathrin-mediated transcytosis of IgA by epithelial cells of the digestive tract. The molecular basis of vesicle traffic is discussed, with emphasis on the gaps and uncertainties in our understanding of the molecules and mechanisms that regulate transcytosis. In our view there is still much to be learned about this fundamental process.

Abstract
CRHSP-28 is a member of the tumor protein D52 protein family that was recently shown to regulate Ca(2+)-stimulated secretory activity in streptolysin-O-permeabilized acinar cells (Thomas, D. H., Taft, W. B., Kaspar, K. M., and Groblewski, G. E. (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 28866-28872). In the present study, the Ca(2+)-sensitive phospholipid-binding protein annexin VI was purified from rat pancreas as a CRHSP-28-binding protein. The interaction between CRHSP-28 and annexin VI was demonstrated by coimmunoprecipitation and gel-overlay assays and was shown to require low micromolar levels of free Ca(2+), indicating these molecules likely interact under physiological conditions. Immunofluorescence microscopy confirmed a dual localization of CRHSP-28 and annexin VI, which appeared in a punctate pattern in the supranuclear and apical cytoplasm of acini. Stimulation of cells for 5 min with the secretagogue cholecystokinin enhanced the colocalization of CRHSP-28 and annexin VI within regions of acini immediately below the apical plasma membrane. Tissue fractionation revealed that CRHSP-28 is a peripheral membrane protein that is highly enriched in smooth microsomal fractions of pancreas. Further, the content of CRHSP-28 in microsomes was significantly reduced in pancreatic tissue obtained from rats that had been infused with a secretory dose of cholecystokinin for 40 min, demonstrating that secretagogue stimulation transiently alters the association of CRHSP-28 with membranes in cells. Collectively, the Ca(2+)-dependent binding of CRHSP-28 and annexin VI, together with their colocalization in the apical cytoplasm, is consistent with a role for these molecules in acinar cell membrane trafficking events that are essential for digestive enzyme secretion.

Abstract
Annexins are Ca(2+)- and phospholipid-binding proteins that are widely expressed in mammalian tissues and that bind to different cellular membranes. In recent years its role in membrane traffic has emerged as one of its predominant functions, but the regulation of its intracellular distribution still remains unclear. We demonstrated that annexin 6 translocates to the late endocytic compartment in low density lipoprotein-loaded CHO cells. This prompted us to investigate whether cholesterol, one of the major constituents of low density lipoprotein, could influence the membrane binding affinity and intracellular distribution of annexin 6. Treatment of crude membranes or early and late endosomal fractions with digitonin, a cholesterol-sequestering agent, displayed a strong reduction in the binding affinity of a novel EDTA-resistant and cholesterol-sensitive pool of annexin 6 proteins. In addition, U18666A-induced accumulation of cholesterol in the late endosomal compartment resulted in a significant increase of annexin 6 in these vesicles in vivo. This translocation/recruitment correlates with an increased membrane binding affinity of GST-annexin 6 to late endosomes of U18666A-treated cells in vitro. In conclusion, the present study shows that changes in the intracellular distribution and concentration of cholesterol in different subcellular compartments participate in the reorganization of intracellular pools of Ca(2+)-dependent and -independent annexin 6.

Abstract
Annexins are a family of calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins, which have been implicated in a variety of biological processes including membrane trafficking. The annexin 6/lgp120 prelysosomal compartment of NRK cells was loaded with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and then its transport from this endocytic compartment and its degradation in lysosomes were studied. NRK cells were microinjected with the mutated annexin 6 (anx6(1-175)), to assess the possible involvement of annexin 6 in the transport of LDL from the prelysosomal compartment. The results indicated that microinjection of mutated annexin 6, in NRK cells, showed the accumulation of LDL in larger endocytic structures, denoting retention of LDL in the prelysosomal compartment. To confirm the involvement of annexin 6 in the trafficking and the degradation of LDL we used CHO cells transfected with mutated annexin 6(1-175). Thus, in agreement with NRK cells the results obtained in CHO cells demonstrated a significant inhibition of LDL degradation in CHO cells expressing the mutated form of annexin 6 compared to controls overexpressing wild-type annexin 6. Therefore, we conclude that annexin 6 is involved in the trafficking events leading to LDL degradation.

Abstract
Annexin 6 is a Ca2+-dependent phospholipid-binding protein involved in membrane trafficking. In this study we demonstrate the association of Raf-1 with recombinant rat annexin 6. Raf-annexin 6 interaction was shown to be independent of cell activation by epidermal growth factor (EGF) or phorbol esters (12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA)). A stable Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-anx6 cell line overexpressing annexin 6 was established to examine the function of annexin 6. In these cells, no increase of Ras-GTP levels, induced by EGF or TPA, was detected. In addition, the activity of Raf was completely inhibited, whereas the mitogen-activated protein kinase-P was unaffected.

Abstract
Annexins are a family of proteins that bind phospholipids in a calcium-dependent manner. Analysis of the sequences of the different members of the annexin family revealed the presence of a pentapeptide biochemically related to KFERQ in some annexins but not in others. Such sequences have been proposed to be a targeting sequence for chaperone-mediated autophagy, a lysosomal pathway of protein degradation that is activated in confluent cells in response to removal of serum growth factors. We demonstrate that annexins II and VI, which contain KFERQ-like sequences, are degraded more rapidly in response to serum withdrawal, while annexins V and XI, without such sequences, are degraded at the same rate in the presence and absence of serum. Using isolated lysosomes, only the annexins containing KFERQ-like sequences are degraded by chaperone mediated-autophagy. Annexins V and XI could associate with lysosomes but did not enter the lysosomes and were not proteolytic substrates. Furthermore, four annexins containing KFERQ-like sequences, annexins I, II, IV, and VI, are enriched in lysosomes with high chaperone-mediated autophagy activity as expected for substrate proteins. These results provide striking evidence for the importance of KFERQ motifs in substrates of chaperone-mediated autophagy.

Abstract
Annexins are calcium-binding proteins with a wide distribution in most polarized and nonpolarized cells that participate in a variety of membrane-membrane interactions. At the cell surface, annexin VI is thought to remodel the spectrin cytoskeleton to facilitate budding of coated pits. However, annexin VI is also found in late endocytic compartments in a number of cell types, indicating an additional important role at later stages of the endocytic pathway. Therefore overexpression of annexin VI in Chinese hamster ovary cells was used to investigate its possible role in endocytosis and intracellular trafficking of low density lipoprotein (LDL) and transferrin. While overexpression of annexin VI alone did not alter endocytosis and degradation of LDL, coexpression of annexin VI and LDL receptor resulted in an increase in LDL uptake with a concomitant increase of its degradation. Whereas annexin VI showed a wide intracellular distribution in resting Chinese hamster ovary cells, it was mainly found in the endocytic compartment and remained associated with LDL-containing vesicles even at later stages of the endocytic pathway. Thus, data presented in this study suggest that after stimulating endocytosis at the cell surface, annexin VI remains bound to endocytic vesicles to regulate entry of ligands into the prelysosomal compartment.

Abstract
Annexin VI is an abundant calcium- and phospholipid-binding protein whose intracellular distribution and function are still controversial. Using a highly specific antibody, we have studied the distribution of annexin VI in NRK fibroblasts and the polarized hepatic cell line WIF-B by confocal microscopy. In NRK cells, annexin VI was almost exclusively found associated with endocytic compartments, which were defined by their ability to receive fluid-phase marker internalized from the cell surface. However, extensive colocalization of annexin VI and the endocytic marker was only observed after about 45 min, indicating that annexin VI was primarily in late endocytic compartments or (pre)lysosomes. Consistent with this, annexin VI was predominantly seen on structures that contained the lysosomal protein lgp120, although not on dense core lysosomes by electron microscopy. Two major populations of annexin VI-containing structures were present in polarized WIF-B hepatocytes. One correlated to lgp120-positive (pre)lysosomes and was still observed after treatment with brefeldin A (BFA), while the other appeared to be partially associated with Golgi membranes and was BFA-sensitive. The striking association with prelysosomal compartments in NRK and WIF-B cells suggests that annexin VI could play a role in fusion events in the late endocytic pathway, possibly by acting as a tether between membranes.

Abstract
The endocytic compartment of polarized cells is organized in basolateral and apical endosomes plus those endocytic structures specialized in recycling and transcytosis, which are still poorly characterized. The complexity of the various populations of endosomes has been demonstrated by the exquisite repertoire of endogenous proteins. In this study we examined the distribution of cellubrevin in the endocytic compartment of hepatocytes, since its intracellular location and function in polarized cells are largely unknown. Highly purified rat liver endosomes were isolated from estradiol-treated rats, and the early/sorting endosomal fraction was further subfractionated in a multistep sucrose density gradient, and studied. Analysis of dissected endosomal fractions showed that cellubrevin was located in early/sorting endosomes, with Rab4, annexins II and VI, and transferrin receptor, but in a specific subpopulation of these early endosomes with the same density range as pIgA and Raf-1. Interestingly, only in those isolated endosomal fractions, endosomes enriched in transcytotic structures (of livers loaded with IgA), the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor specifically co-immunoprecipitated with cellubrevin. In addition, confocal and immuno-electron microscopy identification of cellubrevin in tubular structures underneath the sinusoidal plasma membrane together with the re-organization of cellubrevin, in the endocytic compartment, after the IgA loading, strongly suggest the involvement of cellubrevin in the transcytosis of pIgA.

Abstract
Mammary epithelial cells (MEC) of lactating animals ferry large amounts of milk constituents in vesicular structures which have mostly been characterized by morphological approaches (Ollivier-Bousquet, 1998). Recently, we have shown that under conditions of lipid deprivation, perturbed prolactin traffic paralleled changes in the membrane phospholipid composition and in the cytosol versus membrane distribution of annexin VI (Ollivier-Bousquet et al., 1997). To obtain additional information on the membrane events involved in the vesicular transport of the hormone to the apical pole of the cell, we conducted a biochemical study on prolactin-containing vesicles in MEC at two different stages of differentiation. We first showed that MEC of pregnant and lactating rabbits exhibited membrane characteristics of non-polarized and polarized cells respectively, using annexin IV and the alpha-6 subunit of integrin as membrane markers. Incubation of both cell types with biotinylated prolactin for 1 h at 15 degrees C, followed by a 10-min chase at 37 degrees C revealed that prolactin transport was activated upon MEC membrane polarization. This was confirmed by subcellular fractionation of prolactin-containing vesicles on discontinuous density gradients. In non-polarized MEC, (125)I-prolactin was mainly recovered in gradient fractions enriched with endocytotic vesicles either after incubation at 15 degrees C or after a 10-min chase at 37 degrees C. In contrast, in polarized MEC, the hormone switched from endocytotic compartments to a fraction enriched in exocytotic clathrin-coated vesicles during the 10-min chase at 37 degrees C. Association of annexin VI to prolactin carriers was next studied in both non-polarized and polarized cells. Membrane compartments collected at each gradient interface were solubilized under mild conditions by Triton X-100 (TX100) and the distribution of annexin VI in TX100-insoluble and TX100-soluble fractions was analyzed by Western blotting. Upon MEC polarization, the amount of annexin VI recovered in TX100-insoluble fractions changed. Quite interestingly, it increased in a membrane fraction enriched with endocytotic clathrin-coated vesicles, suggesting that annexin VI may act as a sorting signal in prolactin transport.

Abstract
Annexins are calcium-binding proteins of unknown function but which are implicated in important cellular processes, including anticoagulation, ion flux regulation, calcium homeostasis, and endocytosis. To gain insight into the function of annexin VI, we performed targeted disruption of its gene in mice. Matings between heterozygous mice produced offspring with a normal Mendelian pattern of inheritance, indicating that the loss of annexin VI did not interfere with viability in utero. Mice lacking annexin VI reached sexual maturity at the same age as their normal littermates, and both males and females were fertile. Because of interest in the role of annexin VI in cardiovascular function, we examined heart rate and blood pressure in knockout and wild-type mice and found these to be identical in the two groups. Similarly, the cardiovascular responses of both sets of mice to septic shock were indistinguishable. We also examined components of the immune system and found no differences in thymic, splenic, or bone marrow lymphocyte levels between knockout and wild-type mice. This is the first study of annexin knockout mice, and the lack of a clear phenotype has broad implications for current views of annexin function.

Abstract
Annexin VI is a widely expressed calcium- and phospholipid-binding protein that lacks a clear physiological role. We now report that A431 cells expressing annexin VI are defective in their ability to sustain elevated levels of cytosolic Ca(2+) following stimulation with EGF. Other aspects of EGF receptor signaling, such as protein tyrosine phosphorylation and induction of c-fos are normal in these cells. However, EGF-mediated membrane hyperpolarization is attenuated and Ca(2+) entry abolished in cells expressing annexin VI. This effect of annexin VI was only observed for the larger of the two annexin VI splice forms, the smaller splice variant had no discernable effect on either cellular phenotype or growth rate. Inhibition of Ca(2+) influx was specific for the EGF-induced pathway; capacitative Ca(2+) influx initiated by emptying of intracellular stores was unaffected. These results provide the first evidence that the two splice forms of annexin VI have different functions.

Abstract
The cellular and subcellular localizations of annexins I, II, VI and XIII in the rabbit intestine, liver and pancreas were studied by performing immunofluorescence labeling on thin frozen tissue sections using specific monoclonal antibodies. The expression of annexins was found to be finely regulated. Annexins XIII and I were expressed exclusively in the small intestine and the colon, respectively, whereas annexin II was present in all the tissues tested and annexin VI specifically in the liver and pancreas. These different annexins were concentrated in the basolateral domain of polarized cells, and some of them had an extra-apical localization: annexin XIII was concentrated in the lower 3/4 of enterocyte brush border microvilli; annexin II was present in the upper part of the terminal web in intestinal absorbent cells as well as in the bile canalicular area in hepatocytes, whereas annexin VI was detected on some apical vesicles concentrated around the bile canaliculi. In pancreatic acinar cells, the presence of annexin II on some zymogen granules provides further evidence that annexin II may be involved in exocytic events. In conclusion, this study shows that the basolateral domain of polarized cells appears to be the main site where annexins are located, and they may therefore be involved in the important cellular events occurring at this level.

Abstract
Annexins are Ca2+-regulated membrane binding proteins implicated in a wide range of membrane-related and signal transduction events, including the endocytosis of membrane receptors and Ca2+-regulated as well as constitutive secretion. To date, 10 unique members of this multigene family have been identified in a variety of cell types and tissues of higher vertebrates, with different members showing distinct tissue distributions in the adult organisms. To establish whether annexins also function in embryonic development, we analyzed the expression pattern during vertebrate morphogenesis using the medaka fish Oryzias latipes as a model system. From a larval medaka cDNA library, we isolated four types of clones, which were shown by sequence analysis to encode four different annexins (herein referred to as max 1-4). A comparison with known annexin sequences in the databases revealed that two medaka annexins (max 1 and 2) are highly similar in sequence to mammalian annexins V and IV, respectively, whereas the other two medaka annexins (max 3 and 4) are probably novel members of the family most closely related to mammalian annexins I and XI. Using whole-mount RNA in situ hybridization, we showed that the expression of the different medaka annexins during embryogenesis was strictly regulated at both the spatial and the temporal level. High levels of max 1, 2, and 3 transcripts were present in the developing stomach, gut, liver, air-bladder, and rectum during somitogenesis, thus identifying the digestive tract as the prime region of annexin expression. Interestingly, two structures playing crucial roles in neuronal patterning showed a distinct expression of annexins. The mesendoderm of the anterior prechordal plate of neurula-stage embryos was a site of max 4 transcription, and the floor plate of somitogenesis-stage embryos showed expression of max 2 and 3 to differing rostrocaudal extends along the brain and spinal cord. These results suggest specific functions of different annexins during vertebrate morphogenesis.

Abstract
Annexin (Anx) VI has been implicated in mediating the endosome aggregation and vesicle fusion in secreting epithelia during exocytosis. In addition, AnxVI of porcine liver is an ATP-binding protein, and ATP in vitro modulates its interaction with membranes and cytoskeletal elements (Bandorowicz-Pikuła and Awasthi, FEBS Lett. 409 (1997) 300-306). In this study, we examined the effect of ATP on phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) aggregation in the presence of annexin and on calcium-dependent binding of protein to liposomes, and found that ATP stimulates the former process, although it increases the calcium concentration necessary for half-maximal binding of AnxVI to membranes. These results were corroborated by the experiments with fluorescent analog of ATP, in which binding of ATP to AnxVI was affected by binding of Ca2+ and/or phospholipids to the protein. Taken together they favour an idea of ATP being a functional ligand for AnxVI, which even in the relative absence of Ca2+ may modulate interaction of AnxVI with PtdSer-enriched membranes.

Abstract
Regulation of the free intracellular calcium concentration, [Ca2+]i, plays a major role in physiological signal transduction. Many of the essential enzymes in signaling cascades are Ca(2+)-dependent, as are numerous proteins that participate in the regulated function. Oxidative stress, which for many years was considered synonymous with cell and tissue injury, has more recently been demonstrated to alter signal transduction in both positive and negative directions. The realization that hydrogen peroxide and lipid hydroperoxides are produced as part of normal metabolism has led to the proposal that these oxidants function as second messengers. Exposure to environmental and other agents that produce hydroperoxides or the addition of exogenous hydroperoxides also causes elevation of [Ca2+]i in some cells. At sublethal exposure to hydroperoxides, the elevation in [Ca2+]i can either alter or mimic physiological stimulation. In addition to endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, and the extracellular space, the phospholipid- and Ca(2+)-binding proteins known as annexins constitute a Ca2+ pool from which this ion may be released under situations of oxidative stress. In this article, the source and consequences of Ca2+ elevation are reviewed with an emphasis on studies done with alveolar macrophages. These phagocytes, which modulate much of the physiological and immunological function of the lung, are susceptible targets for environmental oxidants.

Abstract
We have previously characterized three populations of clathrin coated vesicles (CCVs) isolated from bovine adrenocortical tissue and designated them as large, medium and small coated vesicles, i.e., LCV, MCV and SCV, respectively. Here, we show that annexins II and VI, two of the annexins involved in membrane traffic, are present in the three populations of CCVs but with different distributions between coat proteins (CP) and lipidic vesicle membrane. Annexin VI is only associated with the membrane, whatever the CCV population. In contrast, annexin II is differently distributed between coat and membrane, depending on the CCV population. Both annexins are bound to membranes in a calcium-independent manner and solubilization studies in Triton X114 (TX114) suggest that they interact poorly with lipids by hydrophobic interactions. Ligand blotting experiments show that both annexins bind to CCV proteins: annexin II to a 200-kDa component in all CCVs and annexin VI to a 100-kDa component in LCV and SCV identified as dynamin, a GTPase essential for endocytic CCV pinching off. Dynamin is tightly associated to annexin VI only in LCVs, the endocytic [transferrin (Tf) positive] vesicles. Our data suggest that annexins II and VI could define specific protein-lipid interaction microdomains that could play a role in the different functions of the CCVs.

Abstract
Annexin VI has been demonstrated previously to be a marker for hepatic endosomes. By western blotting with an affinity purified anti-annexin VI antibody it was shown that annexin VI was present in the three morphologically and functionally different endosomal fractions from rat liver. We have quantified the gold-labeled endosomes by immunoelectron microscopy in ultrathin Lowicryl sections of rat liver and now demonstrate that 80% of the total labeling with anti-annexin VI was associated with endocytic structures surrounding the bile canaliculus, the apical domain of hepatocytes, whereas only 20% was found in the subsinusoidal endosomes. In double immuno-gold labeling experiments 80% of the Rab5 positive apical endosomes were also labeled with anti-annexin VI antibodies. However, there was no significant colocalization with antibodies to the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor. Finally, we demonstrate that 50% of endosomes containing internalized gold-labeled transferrin were double labeled with anti-annexin VI antibodies. Thus, annexin VI becomes the first known structural protein at the apical ‘early’ endocytic compartment of the hepatocyte that may be involved in the receptor recycling and transport to late endocytic/lysosomal compartment pathways.

Abstract
Progesterone is an important regulator of normal and malignant breast epithelial cells. In addition to stimulating development of normal mammary epithelium, it can be used to treat hormone-dependent breast tumors. However, the mechanism of growth inhibition by progestins is poorly understood, and only a limited number of progesterone target genes are known so far. We therefore decided to clone such target genes by means of differential display polymerase chain reaction. In this paper, we describe an improved differential display strategy that eliminates false positives, along with the identification of nine positive (TSC-22, CD-9, Na+/K+-ATPase alpha1, desmoplakin, CD-59, FKBP51, and three unknown genes) and one negative progesterone target genes (annexin-VI) from the mammary carcinoma cell line T47D, which is growth-inhibited by progestins. None of these genes have been reported before to be progesterone targets. Regulation of desmoplakin, CD-9, CD-59, Na+/K+-ATPase alpha1, and annexin-VI by the progestin suggests that progesterone induces T47D cells to differentiate. Three of these genes were repressed by estradiol and up-regulated by the progestin. Estradiol treatment of T47D cells also leads to formation of lamellipodia and delocalization of two cell adhesion proteins, E-cadherin and alpha-catenin. All these effects were reversed by the progestin. These data suggest that estradiol dedifferentiates T47D cells, while progestins have the opposite effect. This may be linked to the capacity of progestins to inhibit tumor growth.

Abstract
Annexins are a family of structurally related proteins which bind phospholipids in a calcium-dependent manner. Although the precise functions of annexins are unknown, there is an accumulating set of data arguing for a role for some of them in vesicular transport and, specifically, in membrane-membrane or membrane-cytoskeletal interactions during these processes. Here we describe our qualitative and quantitative analysis of the localization of annexins I-V in J774 macrophages that had internalized latex beads, both with and without IgG opsonization. Our results show that whereas all these annexins are present on both the plasma membrane and on phagosomes, the localization on other organelles differs. Annexins I, II, III and V were detected on early endosomes, while only annexin V was seen on late endocytic organelles and mitochondria. Annexins I and II distributed along the plasma membrane non-uniformly and co-localized with F-actin at the sites of membrane protrusions. We also investigated by western blot analysis the association of annexins with purified phagosomes isolated at different time-points after latex bead internalization. While the amounts of annexins I, II, III and V associated with phagosomes were similar at all times after their formation, the level of annexin IV was significantly higher on older phagosomes. Whereas annexins I, II, IV and V could be removed from phagosome membranes with a Ca2+ chelator they remained membrane bound under low calcium conditions. In contrast, annexin III was removed under these conditions and needed a relatively high Ca2+ concentration to remain phagosome bound. Because of their purity and ease of preparation we suggest that phagosomes are a powerful system to study the potential role of annexins in membrane traffic.

Abstract
Rat liver endosomes contain one major high-affinity calmodulin-binding protein (CaMBP) that now has been identified as the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR). In isolated endosomes pIgR was enriched in the receptor-recycling compartment (RRC); lesser enrichment was found in 'early' endosome (CURL) and much less in 'late' endosome fractions (multivesicular bodies, MVB). The distribution of the major CaMBP, shown by Western blotting or by overlay with I125-calmodulin in the isolated fractions, was consistent with rapid accumulation of I125-immunoglobulin A (IgA) in RRC and CURL after intravenous injection into rats. The receptor was also found in sinusoidal plasma membranes but not in cell fractions containing apical (bile canalicular) or lateral plasma membrane domains of the hepatocyte. The interaction of pIgR with calmodulin was shown by direct binding assays and by affinity chromatography. Thus, calmodulin is the first cytoplasmic protein shown to interact with the pIgR. We postulate that calmodulin regulates pIgA trafficking in rat liver. In addition, the receptor recycling fraction emerges as an endosomal subcompartment involved in pIgA transport via pIgR.

Abstract
This study is concerned with the determination of the function of the 68kDa calcium-binding protein, annexin VI. Studies on the structure and regulation of the gene include a detailed analysis of annexin VI expressed heterologously in human A431 carcinoma cells. We have recently discovered that annexin VI is subject to a novel growth dependent post-translational modification. Interestingly, the protein exerts a negative effect on A431 cells. This effect was manifested as a partial reversal of the transformed phenotype. We are currently exploring the hypothesis that the post-translational modification of annexin VI is required for sub-cellular targeting, and that correct localisation within the cell is essential for function.
