Abstract
Various types of non-neuronal cells, including tumors, are able to produce acetylcholine (ACh), which acts as an autocrine/paracrine growth factor. T lymphocytes represent a key component of the non-neuronal cholinergic system. T cells-derived ACh is involved in a stimulation of their activation and proliferation, and acts as a regulator of immune response. The aim of the present work was to summarize the data about components of cholinergic machinery in T lymphocytes, with an emphasis on the comparison of healthy and leukemic T cells. Cell lines derived from acute lymphoblastic leukemias of T lineage (T-ALL) were found to produce a considerably higher amount of ACh than healthy T lymphocytes. Additionally, ACh produced by T-ALL is not efficiently hydrolyzed, because acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity is drastically decreased in these cells. Up-regulation of muscarinic ACh receptors was also demonstrated at expression and functional level, whereas nicotinic ACh receptors seem to play a less important role and not form functional channels in cells derived from T-ALL. We hypothesized that ACh over-produced in T-ALL may act as an autocrine growth factor and play an important role in leukemic clonal expansion through shaping of intracellular Ca2+ signals. We suggest that cholinergic machinery may be attractive targets for new drugs against T-ALL. Specifically, testing of high affinity antagonists of muscarinic ACh receptors as well as antagomiRs, which interfere with miRNAs involved in the suppression of AChE expression, may be the first choice options.

Abstract
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors expression and signaling in the human Jurkat T cell line were investigated. Semiquantitative real-time PCR and radioligand binding studies, using a wide set of antagonist compounds, showed the co-existence of M(3), M(4), and M(5) subtypes. Stimulation of these subpopulations caused a concentration and time- dependent activation of second messengers and ERK signaling pathways, with a major contribution of the M(3) subtype in a G(q/11)-mediated response. In addition, we found that T-cell stimulation leads to increased expression of M(3) and M(5) both at transcriptional and protein levels in a PLC/PKCθ dependent manner. Our data clarifies the functional role of AChR subtypes in Jurkat cells and pave the way to future studies on the potential cross-talk among these subpopulations and their regulation of T lymphocytes immune function.

Abstract
Clostridium difficile toxins cause acute colitis by disrupting the enterocyte barrier and promoting inflammation. ToxB from C. difficile inactivates Rho family GTPases and causes release of cytokines and eicosanoids by macrophages. We studied the effects of ToxB on GPCR signaling in murine RAW264.7 macrophages and found that ToxB elevated Ca(2+) responses to Galphai-linked receptors, including the C5aR, but reduced responses to Galphaq-linked receptors, including the UDP receptors. Other Rho inhibitors also reduced UDP Ca(2+) responses, but they did not affect C5a responses, suggesting that ToxB inhibited UDP responses by inhibiting Rho but enhanced C5a responses by other mechanisms. By using PLCbeta isoform-deficient BMDM, we found that ToxB inhibited Ca(2+) signaling through PLCbeta4 but enhanced signaling through PLCbeta3. Effects of ToxB on GPCR Ca(2+) responses correlated with GPCR use of PLCbeta3 versus PLCbeta4. ToxB inhibited UDP Ca(2+) signaling without reducing InsP3 production or the sensitivity of cellular Ca(2+) stores to exogenous InsP3, suggesting that ToxB impairs UDP signaling at the level of InsP3/Ca(2+)coupling. In contrast, ToxB elevated InsP3 production by C5a, and the enhancement of Ca(2+) signaling by C5a was prevented by inhibition of PLA(2) or 5-LOX but not COX, implicating LTs but not prostanoids in the mechanism. In sum, ToxB has opposing, independently regulated effects on Ca(2+) signaling by different GPCR-linked PLCbeta isoforms in macrophages.

Abstract
The avian eggshell gland (ESG) is a tissue specialized in transporting the Ca(2+) required for eggshell formation and represents a unique biological system in which the calcification process takes place in a circadian fashion. With the use of RNA fingerprinting, a set of genes differentially induced at the time of calcification was detected, one of which was identified as the alpha(1)-subunit of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase. The gene was expressed in a circadian manner in both cell types populating the ESG, but in different temporal patterns, suggesting distinct mechanisms of regulation. Ca(2+) flux and mechanical strain were found to regulate gene expression in the inner glandular epithelium and the pseudostratified epithelium facing the lumen, respectively. Mechanical strain also affected gene expression in cell layers facing the lumen in other parts of the oviduct. Only the alpha(1)-isoform, not the alpha(2)- or alpha(3)-isoform, of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase was expressed in the ESG. In summary, we demonstrate that the alpha(1)-subunit Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase gene is expressed in different epithelial cell types in the ESG and is regulated by various mechanisms, which may reflect the disparity in the physiological roles of the cells in the process of eggshell formation.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides are localized in various intracellular compartments and can regulate a number of intracellular functions, such as cytoskeletal dynamics and membrane trafficking. Phospholipase Ds (PLDs) are regulated enzymes that hydrolyse phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) to generate the putative second messenger phosphatidic acid (PtdOH). In vitro, PLDs have an absolute requirement for higher phosphorylated inositides, such as phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P(2)]. Whether this lipid is able to regulate the activity of PLD in vivo is contentious. To examine this hypothesis we studied the relationship between PLD and an enzyme critical for the intracellular synthesis of PtdIns(4,5)P(2): phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase alpha (Type Ialpha PIPkinase). We find that both PLD1 and PLD2 interact with the Type Ialpha PIPkinase and that PLD2 activity in vivo can be regulated solely by the expression of this lipid kinase. Moreover, PLD2 is able to recruit the Type Ialpha PIPkinase to its intracellular location. We show that the physiological requirement of PLD enzymes for PtdIns(4,5)P(2) is critical and that PLD2 activity can be regulated solely by the levels of this key intracellular lipid.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) subtypes beta, gamma, and delta comprise a related group of multidomain phosphodiesterases that cleave the polar head groups from inositol lipids. Activated by all classes of cell surface receptor, these enzymes generate the ubiquitous second messengers inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol. The last 5 years have seen remarkable advances in our understanding of the molecular and biological facets of PLCs. New insights into their multidomain arrangement and catalytic mechanism have been gained from crystallographic studies of PLC-delta(1), while new modes of controlling PLC activity have been uncovered in cellular studies. Most notable is the realization that PLC-beta, -gamma, and -delta isoforms act in concert, each contributing to a specific aspect of the cellular response. Clues to their true biological roles were also obtained. Long assumed to function broadly in calcium-regulated processes, genetic studies in yeast, slime molds, plants, flies, and mammals point to specific and conditional roles for each PLC isoform in cell signaling and development. In this review we consider each subtype of PLC in organisms ranging from yeast to mammals and discuss their molecular regulation and biological function.

Abstract
1. Effects of agents, which affect microtubule polymerization-depolymerization cycle, on Ba2+ current (IBa) flowing through voltage-gated Ca2+ channels and carbachol (CCh)-induced sustained suppression of IBa were examined in whole-cell voltage-clamped smooth muscle cells of guinea-pig ileum. 2. offchicine (100 microM) and vinblastine (100 microM), microtubule depolymerizers, increased the ampitude of IBa. Lumicolchicine (100 microM), an inactive analogue of colchicine, had no effect on IBa. 3. Taxol (1 - 100 microM), a microtubule polymerizer, decreased IBa in a concentration-dependent manner and accelerated the rate of inactivation of IBa. Baccatin III (100 microM), an inactive analogue of taxol, had no effect on IBa. 4. Colchicine (100 microM) and vinblastine (100 microM), but not lumicolchicine (100 microM), decreased or abolished the sustained component of CCh (10 microM)-induced IBa suppression. 5. Pretreatment with taxol (10 - 100 microM) resulted in a concentration-dependent decrease in IBa and the action of CCh on IBa. The inhibitory effects of taxol and CCh on IBa were not additive. 6. Colchicine (100 microM) or taxol (100 microM) had no effect on voltage-gated K+ channel current or CCh-induced non-selective cationic channel current. 7. These results suggest that polymerization of microtubules leads to suppression of Ca2+ channel activity, and that muscarinic sustained suppression of Ca2+ channel current is mediated by a signal transduction element which involves microtubule cytoskeleton.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD) is a phosphodiesterase that catalyses hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine to produce phosphatidic acid and choline. In the presence of ethanol, PLD also catalyses the formation of phosphatidylethanol, which is a unique characteristic of this enzyme. Muscarinic receptor-induced changes in the activity of PLD were investigated in porcine tracheal smooth muscle by measuring the formation of [3H]phosphatidic acid ([3H]PA) and [3H]phosphatidylethanol ([3H]PEth) after labeling the muscle strips with [3H]palmitic acid. The cholinergic receptor agonist acetylcholine (Ach) significantly but transiently increased formation of both [3H]PA and [3H]PEth in a concentration-dependent manner (>105-400% vs. controls in the presence of 10(-6) to 10(-4) M Ach) when pretreated with 100 mM ethanol. The Ach receptor-mediated increase in PLD activity was inhibited by atropine (10(-6) M), indicating that activation of PLD occurred via muscarinic receptors. Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) increased PLD activity that was effectively blocked by the PKC inhibitors calphostin C (10(-8) to 10(-6) M) and GFX (10(-8) to 10(-6) M). Ach-induced increases in PLD activity were also significantly, but incompletely, inhibited by both GFX and calphostin C. From the present data, we conclude that in tracheal smooth muscle, muscarinic acetylcholine receptor-induced PLD activation is transient in nature and coupled to these receptors via PKC. However, PKC activation is not solely responsible for Ach-induced activation of PLD in porcine tracheal smooth muscle.

Abstract
The involvement of protein kinase C (PKC) and protein kinase A (PKA) in cholinergic signalling in CHO cells expressing the M3 subtype of the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor was examined. Muscarinic signalling was assessed by measuring carbachol-induced activation of phospholipase C (PLC), arachidonic acid release, and calcium mobilisation. Carbachol activation of PLC was not altered by inhibition of PKC with chelerythrine chloride, bisindolylmaleimide or chronic treatment with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). Activation of PKC by acute treatment with PMA was similarly without effect. In contrast, inhibition of PKC blocked carbachol stimulation of arachidonic acid release. Likewise, PKC inhibition resulted in a decreased ability of carbachol to mobilise calcium, whereas PKC activation potentiated calcium mobilisation. Inhibition of PKA with H89 or Rp-cAMP did not alter the ability of carbachol to activate PLC. Similarly, PKA activation with Sp-cAMP or forskolin had no effect on PLC stimulation by carbachol. Carbachol-mediated release of arachidonic acid was decreased by H89 but only slightly increased by forskolin. Forskolin also increased calcium mobilisation by carbachol. These results suggest a function for PKC and PKA in M3 stimulation of arachidonic acid release and calcium mobilisation but not in PLC activation.

Abstract
The role of the mammalian phospholipase D (PLD) in the control of key cellular responses has been recognised for a long time, but only recently have there been the reagents to properly study this very important enzyme in the signalling pathways, linking cell agonists with intracellular targets. With the recent cloning of PLD isoenzymes, their association with low-molecular-weight G proteins, protein kinase C and tyrosine kinases, the availability of antibodies and an understanding of the role of PLD product, phosphatidic acid (PA), in cell physiology, the field is gaining momentum. In this review, we will explore the molecular properties of mammalian PLD and its gene(s), the complexity of this enzyme regulation and the myriad physiological roles for PLD and PA and related metabolic products, with particular emphasis on a role in the activation of NADPH oxidase, or respiratory burst, leading to the generation of oxygen radicals.
