Kim HJ, Lee DK, Jin X, Che X, Ryu SH, Choi JY. Phospholipase D2 controls bone homeostasis by modulating M-CSF-dependent osteoclastic cell migration and microtubule stability. EXPERIMENTAL & MOLECULAR MEDICINE 2022; 54:1146-1155. [PMID: 35945449 PMCID: PMC9440116 DOI: 10.1038/s12276-022-00820-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2022] [Revised: 05/17/2022] [Accepted: 06/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
Phospholipase D2 (PLD2), a signaling protein, plays a central role in cellular communication and various biological processes. Here, we show that PLD2 contributes to bone homeostasis by regulating bone resorption through osteoclastic cell migration and microtubule-dependent cytoskeletal organization. Pld2-deficient mice exhibited a low bone mass attributed to increased osteoclast function without altered osteoblast activity. While Pld2 deficiency did not affect osteoclast differentiation, its absence promoted the migration of osteoclast lineage cells through a mechanism involving M-CSF-induced activation of the PI3K–Akt–GSK3β signaling pathway. The absence of Pld2 also boosted osteoclast spreading and actin ring formation, resulting in elevated bone resorption. Furthermore, Pld2 deletion increased microtubule acetylation and stability, which were later restored by treatment with a specific inhibitor of Akt, an essential molecule for microtubule stabilization and osteoclast bone resorption activity. Interestingly, PLD2 interacted with the M-CSF receptor (c-Fms) and PI3K, and the association between PLD2 and c-Fms was reduced in response to M-CSF. Altogether, our findings indicate that PLD2 regulates bone homeostasis by modulating osteoclastic cell migration and microtubule stability via the M-CSF-dependent PI3K–Akt–GSK3β axis. A signaling protein that regulates bone resorption may prove a useful target in treating skeletal conditions such as osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Bone is synthesized by cells called osteoblasts, while osteoclasts trigger bone resorption, keeping the skeleton healthy. Imbalances in this recycling process are common in bone disorders. Je-Young Choi and Hyun-Ju Kim at Kyungpook National University in Daegu, South Korea, and co-workers demonstrated that phospholipase D2 (PLD2), a membrane protein, directly regulates bone resorption in mice. Mice without the Pld2 gene had increased osteoclast activity, resulting in low bone mass. The absence of PLD2 promotes the migration of osteoclasts via a particular signaling pathway. This increased the organization of microtubules, polymers that help form the cytoskeleton. The results suggest that regulating PLD2 activity could form the basis of a future treatment method.

Mol Cancer Res 2020; 19:99-111. [PMID: 33082240 DOI: 10.1158/1541-7786.mcr-20-0169] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2020] [Revised: 08/04/2020] [Accepted: 10/12/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Vitamin D3 and its metabolites have antitumorigenic properties in vitro and in vivo; however, clinical trials and retrospective studies on the effectiveness of vitamin D3 oral supplementation against cancer have been inconclusive. One reason for this may be that clinical trials ignore the complex vitamin D metabolome and the many active vitamin D3 metabolites present in the body. Recent work by our lab showed that 24R,25(OH)2D3, a vitamin D3 metabolite that is active in chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation, has antitumorigenic properties in estrogen receptor alpha-66 (ERα66)-positive (ER+) breast cancer, but not in ERα66-negative (ER-) breast cancer. Here we show that 24R,25(OH)2D3 is protumorigenic in an in vivo mouse model (NOD.Cg-PrkdcscidIl2rgtm1Wjl /SzJ (NSG) mice) of ER- breast cancer, causing greater tumor growth than in mice treated with vehicle alone. In vitro results indicate that the effect of 24R,25(OH)2D3 is via a membrane-associated mechanism involving ERs and phospholipase D. 24R,25(OH)2D3 increased proliferation and reduced apoptosis in ERα66-negative HCC38 breast cancer cells, and stimulated expression of metastatic markers. Overexpressing ESRI, which encodes ERα66, ERα46, and ERα36, reduced the proapoptotic response of ERα66- cells to 24R,25(OH)2D3, possibly by upregulating ERα66. Silencing ESR1 in ERα66+ cells increased apoptosis. This suggests 24R,25(OH)2D3 is differentially tumorigenic in cancers with different ERα isoform profiles. Antiapoptotic actions of 24R,25(OH)2D3 require ERα36 and proapoptotic actions require ERα66. IMPLICATIONS: These results suggest that 24R,25(OH)2D3, which is a major circulating metabolite of vitamin D, is functionally active in breast cancer and that the regulatory properties of 24R,25(OH)2D3 are dependent upon the relative expression of ERα66 and ERα36.

Abstract
Vitamin D has long been prescribed as a supplement to breast cancer patients. This is partially motivated by data indicating that low serum vitamin D, measured as 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3], is associated with worsened cancer prognosis and decreased survival rates in cancer patients. However, clinical studies investigating the role of vitamin D supplementation in breast cancer treatment are largely inconclusive. One reason for this may be that many of these studies ignore the complexity of the vitamin D metabolome and the effects of these metabolites at the cellular level. Once ingested, vitamin D is metabolized into 37 different metabolites, including 25(OH)D3, which is the metabolite actually measured clinically, as well as 1,25(OH)2D3 and 24,25(OH)2D3. Recent work by our lab and others has demonstrated a role for 24R,25(OH)2D3, in the modulation of breast cancer tumors via an estrogen receptor α-dependent mechanism. This review highlights the importance of considering estrogen receptor status in vitamin d-associated prognostic studies of breast cancer and proposes a potential mechanism for 24R,25(OH)2D3 signaling in breast cancer cells.

Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2019; 1863:1498-1512.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidemiological studies indicate high serum 25(OH)D3 is associated with increased survival in breast cancer patients. Pre-clinical studies attributed this to anti-tumorigenic properties of its metabolite 1α,25(OH)2D3. However, 1α,25(OH)2D3 is highly calcemic and thus has a narrow therapeutic window. Here we propose another metabolite, 24R,25(OH)2D3, as an alternative non-calcemic vitamin D3 supplement. METHODS NOD-SCID-IL2γR null female mice with MCF7 breast cancer xenografts in the mammary fat pad were treated with 24R,25(OH)2D3 and changes in tumor burden and metastases were assessed. ERα66+ MCF7 and T47D cells, and ERα66- HCC38 cells were treated with 24R,25(OH)2D3in vitro to assess effects on proliferation and apoptosis. Effects on migration and metastatic markers were assessed in MCF7. RESULTS 24R,25(OH)2D3 reduced MCF7 tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. In vitro results indicate that this was not due to an anti-proliferative effect; 24R,25(OH)2D3 stimulated DNA synthesis in MCF7 and T47D. In contrast, markers of invasion and metastasis were decreased. 24R,25(OH)2D3 caused dose-dependent increases in apoptosis in MCF7 and T47D, but not HCC38 cells. Inhibitors to palmitoylation, caveolae integrity, phospholipase-D, and estrogen receptors (ER) demonstrate that 24R,25(OH)2D3 acts on MCF7 cells through caveolae-associated, phospholipase D-dependent mechanisms via cross-talk with ERs. CONCLUSION These results indicate that 24R,25(OH)2D3 shows promise in treatment of breast cancer by stimulating tumor apoptosis and reducing metastasis. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE 24R,25(OH)2D3 regulates breast cancer cell survival through ER-associated mechanisms similar to 24R,25(OH)2D3 effects on chondrocytes. Thus, 24R,25(OH)2D3 may modulate cell survival in other estrogen-responsive cell types, and its therapeutic potential should be investigated in ER-associated pathologies.

Abstract
Vascular calcification (VC) is the pathological accumulation of calcium phosphate crystals in one of the layers of blood vessels, leading to loss of elasticity and causing severe calcification in vessels. Medial calcification is mostly seen in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and diabetes. Identification of key enzymes and their actions during calcification will contribute to understand the onset of pathological calcification. Phospholipase D (PLD1, PLD2) is active at the earlier steps of mineralization in osteoblasts and chondrocytes. In this study, we aimed to determine their effects during high-phosphate treatment in mouse vascular smooth muscle cell line MOVAS, in the ex vivo model of the rat aorta, and in the in vivo model of adenine-induced CKD. We observed an early increase in PLD1 gene and protein expression along with the increase in the PLD activity in vascular muscle cell line, during calcification induced by ascorbic acid and β-glycerophosphate. Inhibition of PLD1 by the selective inhibitor VU0155069, or the pan-PLD inhibitor, halopemide, prevented calcification. The mechanism of PLD activation is likely to be protein kinase C (PKC)-independent since bisindolylmaleimide X hydrochloride, a pan-PKC inhibitor, did not affect the PLD activity. In agreement, we found an increase in Pld1 gene expression and PLD activity in aortic explant cultures treated with high phosphate, whereas PLD inhibition by halopemide decreased calcification. Finally, an increase in both Pld1 and Pld2 expression occurred simultaneously with the appearance of VC in a rat model of CKD. Thus, PLD, especially PLD1, promotes VC in the context of CKD and could be an important target for preventing onset or progression of VC.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) in humans is associated with low circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3]. In vitamin D replete rats, radiolabeled 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24R,25(OH)2D3] accumulates in articular cartilage following injection of [3H]-25(OH)D3. Previously, we showed that 24R,25(OH)2D3 blocks chondrocyte apoptosis via phospholipase D and p53, suggesting a role for 24R,25(OH)2D3 in maintaining cartilage health. We examined the ability of 24R,25(OH)2D3 to prevent degenerative changes in articular cartilage in an OA-like environment and the potential mechanisms involved. In vitro, rat articular chondrocytes were treated with IL-1β with and without 24R,25(OH)2D3 or 1α,25(OH)2D3. 24R,25(OH)2D3 but not 1α,25(OH)2D3 blocked the effects of IL-1β in a dose-dependent manner, and its effect was partially mediated through the TGF-β1 signaling pathway. In vivo, unilateral anterior cruciate ligament transections were performed in immunocompetent rats followed by intra-articular injections of 24R,25(OH)2D3 or vehicle (t = 0, 7, 14, 21 days). Tissues were harvested on day 28. Joints treated with vehicle had changes typical of OA whereas joints treated with 24R,25(OH)2D3 had less articular cartilage damage and levels of inflammatory mediators. These results indicate that 24R,25(OH)2D3 protects against OA, and suggest that it may be a therapeutic approach for preventing trauma-induced osteoarthritis.

Estrogen receptor-alpha 36 mediates the anti-apoptotic effect of estradiol in triple negative breast cancer cells via a membrane-associated mechanism. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2014; 1843:2796-806. [PMID: 25108195 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamcr.2014.07.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2014] [Revised: 07/28/2014] [Accepted: 07/30/2014] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
17β-Estradiol can promote the growth and development of several estrogen receptor (ER)-negative breast cancers. The effects are rapid and non-genomic, suggesting that a membrane-associated ER is involved. ERα36 has been shown to mediate rapid, non-genomic, membrane-associated effects of 17β-estradiol in several cancer cell lines, including triple negative HCC38 breast cancer cells. Moreover, the effect is anti-apoptotic. The aim of this study was to determine if ERα36 mediates this anti-apoptotic effect, and to elucidate the mechanism involved. Taxol was used to induce apoptosis in HCC38 cells, and the effect of 17β-estradiol pre-treatment was determined. Antibodies to ERα36, signal pathway inhibitors, ERα36 deletion mutants, and ERα36-silencing were used prior to these treatments to determine the role of ERα36 in these effects and to determine which signaling molecules were involved. We found that the anti-apoptotic effect of 17β-estradiol in HCC38 breast cancer cells is in fact mediated by membrane-associated ERα36. We also showed that this signaling occurs through a pathway that requires PLD, LPA, and PI3K; Gαs and calcium signaling may also be involved. In addition, dynamic palmitoylation is required for the membrane-associated effect of 17β-estradiol. Exon 9 of ERα36, a unique exon to ERα36 not found in other identified splice variants of ERα with previously unknown function, is necessary for these effects. This study provides a working model for a mechanism by which estradiol promotes anti-apoptosis through membrane-associated ERα36, suggesting that ERα36 may be a potential membrane target for drug design against breast cancer, particularly triple negative breast cancer.

Phospholipases of mineralization competent cells and matrix vesicles: roles in physiological and pathological mineralizations. Int J Mol Sci 2013; 14:5036-129. [PMID: 23455471 PMCID: PMC3634480 DOI: 10.3390/ijms14035036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 46] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2012] [Revised: 01/24/2013] [Accepted: 01/25/2013] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
The present review aims to systematically and critically analyze the current knowledge on phospholipases and their role in physiological and pathological mineralization undertaken by mineralization competent cells. Cellular lipid metabolism plays an important role in biological mineralization. The physiological mechanisms of mineralization are likely to take place in tissues other than in bones and teeth under specific pathological conditions. For instance, vascular calcification in arteries of patients with renal failure, diabetes mellitus or atherosclerosis recapitulates the mechanisms of bone formation. Osteoporosis—a bone resorbing disease—and rheumatoid arthritis originating from the inflammation in the synovium are also affected by cellular lipid metabolism. The focus is on the lipid metabolism due to the effects of dietary lipids on bone health. These and other phenomena indicate that phospholipases may participate in bone remodelling as evidenced by their expression in smooth muscle cells, in bone forming osteoblasts, chondrocytes and in bone resorbing osteoclasts. Among various enzymes involved, phospholipases A1 or A2, phospholipase C, phospholipase D, autotaxin and sphingomyelinase are engaged in membrane lipid remodelling during early stages of mineralization and cell maturation in mineralization-competent cells. Numerous experimental evidences suggested that phospholipases exert their action at various stages of mineralization by affecting intracellular signaling and cell differentiation. The lipid metabolites—such as arachidonic acid, lysophospholipids, and sphingosine-1-phosphate are involved in cell signaling and inflammation reactions. Phospholipases are also important members of the cellular machinery engaged in matrix vesicle (MV) biogenesis and exocytosis. They may favour mineral formation inside MVs, may catalyse MV membrane breakdown necessary for the release of mineral deposits into extracellular matrix (ECM), or participate in hydrolysis of ECM. The biological functions of phospholipases are discussed from the perspective of animal and cellular knockout models, as well as disease implications, development of potent inhibitors and therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
The 1,25-(OH)(2)D metabolite mediates the endocrine actions of vitamin D by regulating in the small intestine the expression of target genes that play a critical role in intestinal calcium absorption. The major role of the vitamin D hormone on bone is indirect and mediated through its endocrine function on mineral homeostasis. However, genetic manipulation of the expression of Cyp27b1 or the VDR in chondrocytes strongly support a direct role for locally synthesized 1,25(OH)(2)D, acting through the VDR, in vascular invasion and osteoclastogenesis during endochondral bone development. Cells from the growth plate respond to the 24,25-(OH)(2)D and 1,25-(OH)(2)D metabolites in a cell maturation-dependent manner and the effects of 1,25-(OH)(2)D are thought to be mediated through binding to the membrane-associated receptor PDIA3 (protein disulfide isomerase associated 3). The physiological relevance of membrane-mediated 1,25-(OH)(2)D signaling is emerging and is discussed. Finally, preliminary results suggest that mice deficient for Cyp24a1 exhibit a delay in bone fracture healing and support a role for 24,25-(OH)(2)D in mammalian fracture repair.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD) catalyzes the conversion of the membrane phospholipid phosphatidylcholine to choline and phosphatidic acid (PA). PLD's mission in the cell is two-fold: phospholipid turnover with maintenance of the structural integrity of cellular/intracellular membranes and cell signaling through PA and its metabolites. Precisely, through its product of the reaction, PA, PLD has been implicated in a variety of physiological cellular functions, such as intracellular protein trafficking, cytoskeletal dynamics, chemotaxis of leukocytes and cell proliferation. The catalytic (HKD) and regulatory (PH and PX) domains were studied in detail in the PLD1 isoform, but PLD2 was traditionally studied in lesser detail and much less was known about its regulation. Our laboratory has been focusing on the study of PLD2 regulation in mammalian cells. Over the past few years, we have reported, in regards to the catalytic action of PLD, that PA is a chemoattractant agent that binds to and signals inside the cell through the ribosomal S6 kinases (S6K). Regarding the regulatory domains of PLD2, we have reported the discovery of the PLD2 interaction with Grb2 via Y169 in the PX domain, and further association to Sos, which results in an increase of de novo DNA synthesis and an interaction (also with Grb2) via the adjacent residue Y179, leading to the regulation of cell ruffling, chemotaxis and phagocytosis of leukocytes. We also present the complex regulation by tyrosine phosphorylation by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R), Janus Kinase 3 (JAK3) and Src and the role of phosphatases. Recently, there is evidence supporting a new level of regulation of PLD2 at the PH domain, by the discovery of CRIB domains and a Rac2-PLD2 interaction that leads to a dual (positive and negative) effect on its enzymatic activity. Lastly, we review the surprising finding of PLD2 acting as a GEF. A phospholipase such as PLD that exists already in the cell membrane that acts directly on Rac allows a quick response of the cell without intermediary signaling molecules. This provides only the latest level of PLD2 regulation in a field that promises newer and exciting advances in the next few years.

Abstract
Chondrocytes in the hypertrophic zone of the growth plate undergo apoptosis during endochondral bone development via mechanisms that involve inorganic phosphate (Pi) and nitric oxide (NO). Recent evidence suggests that Pi-dependent NO production plays a role in apoptosis of cells in the resting zone as well. This study examined the mechanism by which Pi induces NO production and the signaling pathways by which NO mediates its effects on apoptosis in these cells. Pi decreased the number of viable cells based on MTT activity; the number of TUNEL-positive cells and the level of DNA fragmentation were increased, indicating an increase in apoptosis. Blocking NO production using the NO synthase (NOS) inhibitor L: -NAME or cells from eNOS(-/-) mice blocked Pi-induced chondrocyte apoptosis, indicating that NO production is necessary. NO donors NOC-18 and SNOG both induced chondrocyte apoptosis. SNOG also upregulated p53 expression, the Bax/Bcl-2 expression ratio, and cytochrome c release from mitochondria, as well as caspase-3 activity, indicating that NO induces apoptosis via a mitochondrial pathway. Inhibition of JNK, but not of p38 or ERK1/2, MAP kinase was able to block NO-induced apoptosis, indicating that JNK is necessary in this pathway. Pi elevates NO production via eNOS in resting zone chondrocytes, which leads to a mitochondrial apoptosis pathway dependent on JNK.

Abstract
Estrogens cause growth plate closure in both males and females, by decreasing proliferation and inducing apoptosis of postproliferative growth plate chondrocytes. In vitro studies using 17β-estradiol (E(2)) conjugated to bovine serum albumin (E(2)-BSA) show that rat costochondral growth plate resting zone chondrocytes also respond to E(2). Moreover, they are regulated by E(2)-BSA via a protein kinase C and ERK MAPK signaling pathway that is functional only in female cells. To better understand how E(2) regulates apoptosis of growth plate chondrocytes, rat resting zone chondrocytes cells were treated with E(2) or E(2)-BSA. E(2) caused apoptosis in male and female resting zone and growth zone chondrocytes in a dose-dependent manner, based on elevated DNA fragmentation, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling staining and caspase-3 activation. E(2) also up-regulated p53 and Bax protein (Bcl-2-associated X protein) levels and induced release of cytochrome C from the mitochondria, indicating a mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. The apoptotic effect of E(2) did not involve elevated nitric oxide production or MAPKs. It was reduced by ICI 182780, which is an estrogen receptor (ER) antagonist and blocked by antibodies to Erα36, a membrane-associated ER. E(2)-BSA reduced cell viability and increased caspase-3 activity; ICI 182780 had no effect, but anti-ERα36 antibodies blocked the effect. The results indicate that estrogen is able to directly affect the cell population kinetics of growth plate chondrocytes by regulating apoptosis, as well as proliferation and differentiation in both resting zone and growth zone cells. They also have provided further information about the physiological functions of estrogen on longitudinal bone growth.

Abstract
Maintenance of the pool of chondrocytes in the resting zone of the growth plate in the presence of the physiological apoptogen inorganic phosphate (Pi) is crucial for skeletal development. Costochondral resting zone chondrocytes are regulated by the vitamin D metabolite 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24R,25(OH)(2)D(3)], with increased production of sulfated glycosaminoglycan-rich extracellular matrix, and reduced matrix metalloproteinase activity. The effects of 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) are mediated by activation of phospholipase D (PLD), resulting in increased production of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and LPA-mediated proliferation, maturation, inhibition of Pi-induced apoptosis, and reduction of p53. However, the exact mechanism by which 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) and LPA exert their effects is not fully understood. It was found that both 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) and LPA attenuate Pi-induced caspase-3 activity. The actions of 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) and LPA were dependent upon G(αi), LPA receptor(s) 1 and/or 3, PLD, phospholipase C (PLC), and intracellular calcium, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI(3)K) signaling, and nuclear export. 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) decreased both p53 abundance and p53-medaited transcription and inhibited Pi-induced cytochrome c translocation. Moreover, LPA induced increased mdm2 phosphorylation, a negative regulator of p53. Taken together, these data show that 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) inhibits Pi-induced apoptosis through Ca(2+), PLD, and PLC signaling and through LPA-LPA1/3-G(αi)-PI(3)K-mdm2-mediated p53 degradation, resulting in decreased cytochrome c translocation and caspase-3 activity.

Abstract
Biomaterial surface properties such as microtopography and energy can change cellular responses at the cell-implant interface. Phospholipase D (PLD) is required for the differentiation of osteoblast-like MG63 cells on machined and grit-blasted titanium surfaces. Here, we determined if PLD is also required on microstructured/high-energy substrates and the mechanism involved. shRNAs for human PLD1 and PLD2 were used to silence MG63 cells. Wild-type and PLD1 or PLD1/2 silenced cells were cultured on smooth-pretreatment surfaces (PT); grit-blasted, acid-etched surfaces (SLA); and SLA surfaces modified to have higher surface energy (modSLA). PLD was inhibited with ethanol or activated with 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin-D(3) [24R,25(OH)(2)D(3)]. As surface roughness/energy increased, PLD mRNA and activity increased, cell number decreased, osteocalcin and osteoprotegerin increased, and protein kinase C (PKC) and alkaline phosphatase specific activities increased. Ethanol inhibited PLD and reduced surface effects on these parameters. There was no effect on these parameters after knockdown of PLD1, but PLD1/2 double knockdown had effects comparableto PLD inhibition. 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) increased PLD activity and the production of osteocalcin and osteoprotegerin, but decreased cell number on the rough/high-energy surfaces. These results confirm that surface roughness/energy-induced PLD activity is required for osteoblast differentiation and that PLD2 is the main isoform involved in this pathway. PLD is activated by 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) in a surface-dependent manner and inhibition of PLD reduces the effects of surface microstructure/energy on PKC, suggesting that PLD mediates the stimulatory effect of microstructured/high-energy surfaces via PKC-dependent signaling.

Abstract
Previously we showed that costochondral growth plate resting zone (RC) chondrocytes response primarily to 24R,25(OH)2D3 whereas prehypertrophic and hypertrophic (GC) cells respond to 1alpha,25(OH)2D3. 24R,25(OH)2D3 increases RC cell proliferation and inhibits activity of matrix processing enzymes, suggesting it stabilizes cells in the reserve zone, possibly by inhibiting the matrix degradation characteristic of apoptotic hypertrophic GC cells. To test this, apoptosis was induced in rat RC cells by treatment with exogenous inorganic phosphate (Pi). 24R,25(OH)2D3 blocked apoptotic effects in a dose-dependent manner. Similarly, apoptosis was induced in ATDC5 cell cultures and 24R,25(OH)2D3 blocked this effect. Further studies indicated that 24R,25(OH)2D3 acts via at least two independent pathways. 24R,25(OH)2D3 increases LPA receptor-1 (LPA R1) expression and production of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), and subsequent LPA R1/3-dependent signaling, thereby decreasing p53 abundance. LPA also increases the Bcl-2/Bax ratio. In addition, 24R,25(OH)2D3 acts by increasing PKC activity. 24R,25(OH)2D3 stimulates 1-hydroxylase activity, resulting in increased levels of 1,25(OH)2D3, and it increases levels of phospholipase A2 activating protein, which is required for rapid 1alpha,25(OH)2D3-dependent activation of PKC in GC cells. These results suggest that 24R,25(OH)2D3 modulates growth plate development by controlling the rate and extent of RC chondrocyte transition to a GC chondrocyte phenotype.

Abstract
Growth plate cartilage is responsible for long bone growth in children and adolescents and is regulated by vitamin D metabolites in a cell zone-specific manner. Resting zone chondrocytes (RC cells) are regulated by 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 via a phospholipase D-dependent pathway, suggesting downstream phospholipid metabolites are involved. In this study, we showed that 24R,25(OH)2D3 stimulates rat costochondral RC chondrocytes to release lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and, therefore sought to determine the role of LPA signaling in these cells. RC cells expressed the G-protein coupled receptors LPA1-5 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-gamma). LPA and the LPA1/3 selective agonist OMPT increased proliferation and two maturation markers, alkaline phosphatase activity and [35S]-sulfate incorporation. LPA and 24R,25(OH)2D3's effects were inhibited by the LPA1/3 selective antagonist VPC32183(S). Furthermore, apoptosis induced by either inorganic phosphate or chelerythrine was attenuated by LPA, based on DNA fragmentation, TUNEL staining, caspase-3 activity, and Bcl-2:Bax protein ratio. LPA prevented apoptotic signaling by decreasing the abundance, nuclear localization, and transcriptional activity of the tumor-suppressor p53. LPA treatment also regulated the expression of the p53-target genes Bcl-2 and Bax to enhance cell survival. Collectively, these data suggest that LPA promotes differentiation and survival in RC chondrocytes, demonstrating a novel physiological function of LPA-signaling.

Abstract
Growth plate chondrocytes produce proteoglycan-rich type II collagen extracellular matrix (ECM). During cell maturation and hypertrophy, ECM is reorganized via a process regulated by 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) and involving matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), including MMP-3 and MMP-2. 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) regulates MMP incorporation into matrix vesicles (MVs), where they are stored until released. Like plasma membranes (PM), MVs contain the 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)-binding protein ERp60, phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)), and caveolin-1, but appear to lack nuclear Vitamin D receptors (VDRs). Chondrocytes produce 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) (10(-8)M), which binds ERp60, activating PLA(2), and resulting lysophospholipids lead to MV membrane disorganization, releasing active MMPs. MV MMP-3 activates TGF-beta1 stored in the ECM as large latent TGF-beta1 complexes, consisting of latent TGF-beta1 binding protein, latency associated peptide, and latent TGF-beta1. Others have shown that MMP-2 specifically activates TGF-beta2. TGF-beta1 regulates 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)-production, providing a mechanism for local control of growth factor activation. 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) activates PKCalpha in the PM via ERp60-signaling through PLA(2), lysophospholipid production, and PLCbeta. It also regulates distribution of phospholipids and PKC isoforms between MVs and PMs, enriching the MVs in PKCzeta. Direct activation of MMP-3 in MVs requires ERp60. However, when MVs are treated with 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3), PKCzeta activity is decreased and PKCalpha is unaffected, suggesting a more complex feedback mechanism, potentially involving MV lipid signaling.

Abstract
Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) is pivotal in the rapid membrane-mediated actions of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1alpha,25(OH)2D3]. Microarray analysis indicated that PLA2 activating protein (PLAA) mRNA is upregulated 6-fold before rat growth plate cells exhibit 1alpha,25(OH)2D3-dependent protein kinase C (PKC) increases, suggesting that it plays an important role in 1alpha,25(OH)2D3's mechanism of action. PLAA mRNA was confirmed in 1alpha,25(OH)2D3-responsive growth zone (prehypertrophic and upper hypertrophic cell zones) chondrocytes by RT-PCR and Northern blot in vitro and by in situ hybridization in vivo. PLAA protein was shown by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. PLAAs role in 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 signaling was evaluated in growth zone cell cultures using PLAA peptide. Arachidonic acid release was increased as was PLA2-specific activity in plasma membranes and matrix vesicles. PKCalpha, but not PKCbeta, PKCepsilon, or PKCzeta, was increased. PLAAs effect was comparable to that of 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 and was additive with 1alpha,25(OH)2D3. PLA2 inhibitors quinacrine and AACOCF3, and cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin blocked the effect of PLAA peptide on PKC, indicating arachidonic acid and its metabolites were involved. This was confirmed using exogenous arachidonic acid. Prostaglandin acted via EP1 based on inhibition by SC19220 and not via EP2 since AH6809 had no effect. Like 1alpha,25(OH)2D3, PLAA peptide also increased activity of phospholipase C-specific activity via beta-1 and beta-3 isoforms, but not delta-1 or gamma-1; the effect of PLAA was via lysophospholipid but not via arachidonic acid. PLAA peptide decreased [3H]-thymidine incorporation to 50% of the decrease caused by 1alpha,25(OH)2D3. In contrast, PLAA peptide increased alkaline phosphatase-specific activity and proteoglycan production in a manner similar to 1alpha,25(OH)2D3. This indicates that PLAA is a specific activator of PLA2 in growth plate chondrocytes, and suggests that it mediates the membrane effect of 1alpha,25(OH)2D3, thereby modulating physiological response.

Abstract
Vitamin D metabolites 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) and 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) regulate endochondral ossification in a cell maturation-dependent manner via membrane-mediated mechanisms. 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) stimulates PKC activity in chondrocytes from the growth plate resting zone, whereas 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) stimulates PKC in growth zone chondrocytes. We used the rat costochondral growth plate cartilage cell model to study how these responses are differentially regulated. 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) acts on PKC, MAP kinase, and downstream physiological responses via phosphatidylinositol-specific PLC-beta; 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) acts via PLD. In both cases, diacylglycerol (DAG) is increased, activating PKC. Both cell types possess membrane and nuclear receptors for 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3), but the mechanisms that render the 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) pathway silent in resting zone cells or the 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) pathway silent in growth zone cells are unclear. PLA(2) is pivotal in this process. 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) stimulates PLA(2) activity in growth zone cells and 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) inhibits PLA(2) activity in resting zone cells. Both processes result in PKC activation. To understand how negative regulation of PLA(2) results in increased PKC activity in resting zone cells, we used PLA(2) activating peptide to stimulate PLA(2) activity and examined cell response. PLAP is not expressed in resting zone cells in vivo, supporting the hypothesis that PLA(2) activation is inhibitory to 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) action in these cells.

Abstract
1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) regulates rat growth plate chondrocytes via nuclear vitamin D receptor (1,25-nVDR) and membrane VDR (1,25-mVDR) mechanisms. To assess the relationship between the receptors, we examined the membrane response to 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) in costochondral cartilage cells from wild type VDR(+/+) and VDR(-/-) mice, the latter lacking the 1,25-nVDR and exhibiting type II rickets and alopecia. Methods were developed for isolation and culture of cells from the resting zone (RC) and growth zone (GC, prehypertrophic and upper hypertrophic zones) of the costochondral cartilages from wild type and homozygous knockout mice. 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) had no effect on [(3)H]-thymidine incorporation in VDR(-/-) GC cells, but it increased [(3)H]-thymidine incorporation in VDR(+/+) cells. Proteoglycan production was increased in cultures of both VDR(-/-) and VDR(+/+) cells, based on [(35)S]-sulfate incorporation. These effects were partially blocked by chelerythrine, which is a specific inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC), indicating that PKC-signaling was involved. 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) caused a 10-fold increase in PKC specific activity in VDR(-/-), and VDR(+/+) GC cells as early as 1 min, supporting this hypothesis. In contrast, 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) had no effect on PKC activity in RC cells isolated from VDR(-/-) or VDR(+/+) mice and neither 1beta,25(OH)(2)D(3) nor 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) affected PKC in GC cells from these mice. Phospholipase C (PLC) activity was also increased within 1 min in GC chondrocyte cultures treated with 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3). As noted previously for rat growth plate chondrocytes, 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) mediated its increases in PKC and PLC activities in the VDR(-/-) GC cells through activation of phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)). These responses to 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) were blocked by antibodies to 1,25-MARRS, which is a [(3)H]-1,25(OH)(2)D(3) binding protein identified in chick enterocytes. 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) regulated PKC in VDR(-/-) and VDR(+/+) RC cells. Wild type RC cells responded to 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) with an increase in PKC, whereas treatment of RC cells from mice lacking a functional 1,25-nVDR caused a time-dependent decrease in PKC between 6 and 9 min. 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) dependent PKC was mediated by phospholipase D, but not by PLC, as noted previously for rat RC cells treated with 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3). These results provide definitive evidence that there are two distinct receptors to 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3). 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)-dependent regulation of DNA synthesis in GC cells requires the 1,25-nVDR, although other physiological responses to the vitamin D metabolite, such as proteoglycan sulfation, involve regulation via the 1,25-mVDR.

Abstract
This review discusses the regulation of growth plate chondrocytes by vitamin D(3). Over the past ten years, our understanding of how two vitamin D metabolites, 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3) and 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3), exert their effects on endochondral ossification has undergone considerable advances through the use of cell biology and signal transduction methodologies. These studies have shown that each metabolite affects a primary target cell within the endochondral developmental lineage. 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3) affects primarily growth zone cells, and 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3) affects primarily resting zone cells. In addition, 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3) initiates a differentiation cascade that results in down-regulation of responsiveness to 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3) and up-regulation of responsiveness to 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3). 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3) regulates growth zone chondrocytes both through the nuclear vitamin D receptor, and through a membrane-associated receptor that mediates its effects via a protein kinase C (PKC) signal transduction pathway. PKCalpha is increased via a phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PLC)-dependent mechanism, as well as through the stimulation of phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) activity. Arachidonic acid and its downstream metabolite prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) also modulate cell response to 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3). In contrast, 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3) exerts its effects on resting zone cells through a separate, membrane-associated receptor that also involves PKC pathways. PKCalpha is increased via a phospholipase D (PLD)-mediated mechanism, as well as through inhibition of the PLA(2) pathway. The target-cell-specific effects of each metabolite are also seen in the regulation of matrix vesicles by vitamin D(3). However, the PKC isoform involved is PKCzeta, and its activity is inhibited, providing a mechanism for differential autocrine regulation of the cell and events in the matrix by these two vitamin D(3) metabolites.

Abstract
Steroids may exert their action in living cells by several ways: 1). the well-known genomic pathway, involving hormone binding to cytosolic (classic) receptors and subsequent modulation of gene expression followed by protein synthesis. 2). Alternatively, pathways are operating that do not act on the genome, therefore indicating nongenomic action. Although it is comparatively easy to confirm the nongenomic nature of a particular phenomenon observed, e.g., by using inhibitors of transcription or translation, considerable controversy exists about the identity of receptors that mediate these responses. Many different approaches have been employed to answer this question, including pharmacology, knock-out animals, and numerous biochemical studies. Evidence is presented for and against both the participation of classic receptors, or proteins closely related to them, as well as for the involvement of yet poorly understood, novel membrane steroid receptors. In addition, clinical implications for a wide array of nongenomic steroid actions are outlined.

Abstract
The signalling pathways by which muscarine and epidermal growth factor (EGF) regulate the secretion of the alpha-secretase cleavage product (sAPPalpha) of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) were examined in the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y. Using specific inhibitors it was found that over 80% of sAPPalpha secretion, enhanced by muscarine, occurred via the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2) member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family and was dependent on protein kinase Calpha (PKCalpha) and a member of the Src family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases (Src-TK). In contrast the stimulation of sAPPalpha secretion by EGF was not affected by inhibitors of PKC nor Src-TK but was dependent on ERK1/2. In addition muscarine-enhanced sAPPalpha secretion and ERK1/2 activation were inhibited 60 and 80%, respectively, by micromolar concentrations of the phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI-3K) inhibitor wortmannin. In comparison wortmannin decreased EGF stimulation of sAPPalpha secretion and ERK 1/2 activation by approximately 40%. Unexpectedly, U73122, an inhibitor of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C, did not inhibit muscarine enhancement of sAPPalpha secretion. These data are discussed in relation to a pathway for the enhancement of sAPPalpha secretion by muscarine which involves the activation of a Src-TK by G-protein beta/gamma-subunits leading to activation of PKCalpha, and ERK1/2 by a mechanism not involving phospholipase C.

Abstract
Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta1) affects growth plate chondrocytes through Smad-mediated mechanisms and has been shown to increase protein kinase C (PKC). This study determined if PKC mediates the physiological response of rat costochondral growth zone (GC) chondrocytes to TGF-beta1; if the physiological response occurs via type II or type III TGF-beta receptors, and, if so, which receptor mediates the increase in PKC; and the signal transduction pathways involved. Treatment of confluent GC cells with TGF-beta1 stimulated [(3)H]thymidine and [(35)S]sulfate incorporation as well as alkaline phosphatase (ALPase) and PKC specific activities. Inhibition of PKC with chelerythrine, staurosporine, or H-7 caused a dose-dependent decrease in these parameters, indicating that PKC signaling was involved. TGF-beta1-dependent PKC and the physiological response of GC cells to TGF-beta1 was reversed by anti-type II TGF-beta receptor antibody and soluble type II TGF-beta receptor, showing that TGF-beta1 mediates these effects through the type II receptor. The increase in [3H]thymidine incorporation and ALPase specific activity were also regulated by protein kinase A (PKA) signaling, since the effects of TGF-beta1 were partially blocked by the PKA inhibitor H-8. The mechanism of TGF-beta1 activation of PKC is through phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) and not through phospholipase C (PLC). Arachidonic acid increased PKC in control cultures and was additive with TGF-beta1. Prostanoids are required, as indomethacin blocked the effect of TGF-beta1, and Cox-1, but not Cox-2, is involved. TGF-beta1 stimulates prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) production and exogenous PGE(2) stimulates PKC, but not as much as TGF-beta1, suggesting that PGE(2) is not sufficient for all of the prostaglandin effect. In contrast, TGF-beta1 was not regulated by diacylglycerol; neither dioctanoylglycerol (DOG) nor inhibition of diacylglycerol kinase with R59022 had an effect. G-proteins mediate TGF-beta1 signaling at different levels in the cascade. TGF-beta1-dependent increases in PGE(2) levels and PKC were augmented by the G protein activator GTP gamma S, whereas inhibition of G-protein activity via GDP beta S, pertussis toxin, or cholera toxin blocked stimulation of PKC by TGF-beta1, indicating that both G(i) and G(s) are involved. Inhibition of PKA with H-8 partially blocked TGF-beta1-dependent PKC, suggesting that PKA inhibition on the physiological response was via PKA regulation of PKC signaling. This indicates that multiple interacting signaling pathways are involved: TGF-beta1 stimulates PLA(2) and prostaglandin release via the action of Cox-1 on arachidonic acid. PGE(2) activates the EP2 receptor, leading to G-protein-dependent activation of PKA. PKA signaling results in increased PKC activity and PKC signaling regulates proliferation, differentiation, and matrix synthesis.

Abstract
1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) and 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) mediate their effects on chondrocytes and osteoblasts in part through increased activity of protein kinase C (PKC). For both cell types, 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) exerts its effects primarily on more mature cells within the lineage, whereas 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) exerts its effects primarily on relatively immature cells. Studies using the rat costochondral cartilage growth plate as a model indicate that the two metabolites increase PKC activity by different mechanisms. In growth zone cells (prehypertrophic/upper hypertrophic cell zones), 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) causes a rapid increase in PKC that does not involve new gene expression. 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) binds its membrane receptor (1,25-mVDR), resulting in activation of phospholipase A(2) and the rapid release of arachidonic acid, as well as activation of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, resulting in formation of diacylglycerol and inositol-1,4,5-tris phosphate (IP(3)). IP(3) leads to release of intracellular Ca(2+) from the rough endoplasmic reticulum, and together with diacylglycerol, the increased Ca(2+) activates PKC. PKC is then translocated to the plasma membrane, where it initiates a phosphorylation cascade, ultimately phosphorylating the extracellular signal-regulated kinase-1 and -2 (ERK1/2) family of MAP kinases (MAPK). PKC increases are maximal at 9 min, and MAPK increases are maximal at 90 min in these cells. By contrast, 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) increases PKC through activation of phospholipase D in resting zone cells. Peak production of diacylglycerol via phospholipase D2 is at 90 min, as are peak increases in PKC. Some of the effect is direct on existing plasma membrane PKC, but most is due to new PKC expression; translocation is not involved. Arachidonic acid and its metabolites also play differential roles in the mechanisms, stimulating PKC in growth zone cells and inhibiting PKC in resting zone cells. 24R,25(OH)(2)D(3) decreases phospholipase A(2) activity and prostaglandin production, thereby overcoming this potential inhibitory component, which may account for the delay in the PKC response. Ultimately, ERK1/2 is phosphorylated. PKC-dependent MAPK activity transduces some, but not all, of the physiological responses of each cell type to its respective vitamin D metabolite, suggesting that the membrane receptor(s) and nuclear receptor(s) may function interdependently to regulate proliferation and differentiation of musculoskeletal cells, but different pathways are involved at different stages of phenotypic maturation.

Abstract
Matrix vesicles are lipid bilayer-enclosed structures that initiate extracellular mineral formation. Little attention has been given to how newly formed mineral interacts with the lipid constituents and then emerges from the lumen. To explore whether specific lipids bind to the incipient mineral and if breakdown of the membrane is involved, we analyzed changes in lipid composition and extractability during vesicle-induced calcification. Isolated matrix vesicles were incubated in synthetic cartilage lymph to induce mineral formation. At various times, samples of the lipids were taken for analysis, extracted both before and after demineralization to remove deposited mineral. Phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol both rapidly disappeared from extracts made before decalcification, indicating rapid degradation. However, extracts made after demineralization revealed that phosphatidylserine had become complexed with newly forming mineral. Concomitantly, its levels actually increased, apparently by base-exchange with phosphatidylethanolamine. Though partially complexed with the mineral, phosphatidylinositol was nevertheless rapidly broken down. Sphingomyelin and phosphatidylethanolamine also underwent rapid breakdown, but phosphatidylcholine was degraded more slowly, all accompanied by a buildup of free fatty acids. The data indicate that phosphatidylserine forms complexes that accompany mineral formation, while degradation of other membrane phospholipids apparently enables egress of crystalline mineral from the vesicle lumen.
