Abstract
Pyruvate kinase (PK), as a key rate-limiting enzyme in glycolysis, has been widely used to assess the stress tolerance and sensitivity of organisms. However, its phosphorylation regulatory mechanisms mainly focused on human cancer research, with no reports in marine organisms. In this study, we firstly reported a conserved PK Ser11 phosphorylation site in mollusks, which enhanced enzyme activity by promoting substrate binding, thereby regulating divergent thermal metabolism of two allopatric congeneric oyster species with differential habitat temperature. It was phosphorylated by ERK kinase, and regulated by the classical MAPK pathway. The MAPK/ERK-PK signaling cascade responded to increased environmental temperature and exhibited stronger activation pattern in the relatively thermotolerant species (Crassostrea angulata), indicating its involvement in shaping temperature adaptation. These findings highlight the presence of complex and unique phosphorylation-mediated signaling transduction mechanisms in marine organisms, and provide new insights into the evolution and function of the crosstalk between classical pathways.

Abstract
Intestinal epithelium is a dynamic cellular layer that lines the small-bowel and makes a relatively impenetrable barrier to macromolecules. Intestinal epithelial cell polarity is crucial in coordinating signalling pathways within cells and mainly regulated by three conserved polarity protein complexes, the Crumbs (Crb) complex, partitioning defective (PAR) complex, and Scribble (Scrib) complex. Polarity proteins regulate the proper establishment of the intercellular junctional complexes including tight junctions (TJs), adherence junctions (AJs), and desmosomes which hold epithelial cells together and play a major role in maintaining intestinal barrier integrity. Impaired intestinal epithelial cell polarity and barrier integrity result in irreversible immune responses, the host- microbial imbalance and intestinal inflammatory disorders. Disassembling the epithelial tight junction and augmented paracellular permeability is a conspicuous hallmark of celiac disease (CD) pathogenesis. There are several dietary components that can improve intestinal integrity and function. The aim of this review article is to summarize current information about the association of polarity proteins and AJC damages with pathogenesis of CD.

Abstract
High-temperature stress caused by global climate change poses a significant threat to marine ectotherms. This study investigated the role of protein phosphorylation modifications in the molecular regulation network under heat stress in oysters, which are representative intertidal organisms that experience considerable temperature changes. Firstly, the study compared the extent of thermal damage between two congeneric oyster species, the relative heat-tolerant Crassostrea angulata (C. angulata) and heat-sensitive Crassostrea gigas (C. gigas), under sublethal temperature (37 °C) for 12 h, using various physiological and biochemical methods. Subsequently, the comparative proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses revealed that high-temperature considerably regulated signal transduction, energy metabolism, protein synthesis, cell survival and apoptosis, and cytoskeleton remodeling through phosphorylation modifications of related receptors and kinases. Furthermore, the protein kinase A, mitogen-activated protein kinase 1, tyrosine-protein kinase Src, and serine/threonine kinase AKT, exhibiting differential phosphorylation modification patterns, were identified as hub regulators that may enhance glycolysis and TCA cycle to increase the energy supply, distribute protein synthesis, inhibit Caspase-dependent apoptosis activated by endogenous mitochondrial cytochrome release and maintain cytoskeletal stability, ultimately shaping the higher thermal resistance of C. angulata. This study represents the first investigation of protein phosphorylation dynamics in marine invertebrates under heat stress, reveals the molecular mechanisms underlying the differential thermal responses between two Crassostrea oysters at the phosphorylation level, and provides new insights into understanding phosphorylation-mediated molecular responses in marine organisms during environmental changes and predicting the adaptive potential in the context of global warming.

Abstract
Body temperature in homeothermic animals does not remain constant but displays a regular circadian fluctuation within a physiological range (e.g., 35°C-38.5°C in mice), constituting a fundamental systemic signal to harmonize circadian clock-regulated physiology. Here, we find the minimal upstream open reading frame (uORF) encoded by the 5' UTR of the mammalian core clock gene Per2 and reveal its role as a regulatory module for temperature-dependent circadian clock entrainment. A temperature shift within the physiological range does not affect transcription but instead increases translation of Per2 through its minimal uORF. Genetic ablation of the Per2 minimal uORF and inhibition of phosphoinositide-3-kinase, lying upstream of temperature-dependent Per2 protein synthesis, perturb the entrainment of cells to simulated body temperature cycles. At the organismal level, Per2 minimal uORF mutant skin shows delayed wound healing, indicating that uORF-mediated Per2 modulation is crucial for optimal tissue homeostasis. Combined with transcriptional regulation, Per2 minimal uORF-mediated translation may enhance the fitness of circadian physiology.

Heat-induced increases in body temperature in lactating dairy cows: impact on the cumulus and granulosa cell transcriptome of the periovulatory follicle. J Anim Sci 2022; 100:6620803.

Abstract
Cows acutely heat stressed after a pharmacologically induced luteinizing hormone (LH) surge had periovulatory changes in the follicular fluid proteome that may potentiate ovulation and impact oocyte developmental competence. Because the cellular origins of differentially abundant proteins were not known, we have examined the cumulus and granulosa cell transcriptomes from the periovulatory follicle in cows exhibiting varying levels of hyperthermia when occurring after the LH surge. After pharmacological induction of a dominant follicle, lactating dairy cows were administered gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) and maintained in thermoneutral conditions (~67 temperature-humidity index [THI]) or heat stress conditions where THI was steadily increased for ~12 h (71 to 86 THI) and was sufficient to steadily elevate rectal temperatures. Cumulus-oocyte complexes and mural granulosa cells were recovered by transvaginal aspiration of dominant follicle content ~16 h after GnRH. Rectal temperature was used as a continuous, independent variable to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) increased or decreased per each 1 °C change in temperature. Cumulus (n = 9 samples) and granulosa (n = 8 samples) cells differentially expressed (false discovery rate [FDR] < 0.05) 25 and 87 genes, respectively. The majority of DEGs were upregulated by hyperthermia. Steady increases in THI are more like the "turning of a dial" than the "flipping of a switch." The moderate but impactful increases in rectal temperature induced modest fold changes in gene expression (<2-fold per 1 °C change in rectal temperature). Identification of cumulus DEGs involved in cell junctions, plasma membrane rafts, and cell-cycle regulation are consistent with marked changes in the interconnectedness and function of cumulus after the LH surge. Depending on the extent to which impacts may be occurring at the junctional level, cumulus changes may have indirect but impactful consequences on the oocyte as it undergoes meiotic maturation. Two granulosa cell DEGs have been reported by others to promote ovulation. Based on what is known, several other DEGs are suggestive of impacts on collagen formation or angiogenesis. Collectively these and other findings provide important insight regarding the extent to which the transcriptomes of the components of the periovulatory follicle (cumulus and mural granulosa cells) are affected by varying degrees of hyperthermia.

Abstract
Fibroblasts produce collagen which is mainly essential for repairing tissue damage and maintaining the structural integrity of tissues. However, studies have given scientific evidence about harmful effect of thermal manipulation in fibroblast. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the mild heat stress temperature which increased broiler fibroblast viability. The experiment was divided into two groups (37 °C and 41 °C), and each group was divided into five subgroups based on different incubation times (6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h) with three replications. In experimental group (41 °C), fibroblast viability increased significantly in 12 h but decreased in 72 h compared with control (37 °C). At 41 °C, live cell increased significantly in 24 h and then declined in 48 h as well as 72 h than control. Moreover, the S phase lengthened in shorter incubation time of experimental group compared with control. Protein and mRNA (HSP70, HSP60, and HSP47) expressions were significantly higher at 41 °C compared with 37 °C, but at the end of the experiment, HSP expression level was higher in both groups. Finally, this study recommended 41 °C as a mild heat stress temperature for increasing broiler fibroblast viability.

Abstract
In response to stress, cells attenuate global protein synthesis but permit efficient translation of mRNAs encoding heat-shock proteins (HSPs). Although decades have passed since the first description of the heat-shock response, how cells achieve translational control of HSP synthesis remains enigmatic. Here we report an unexpected role for mitochondrial ribosomal protein L18 (MRPL18) in the mammalian cytosolic stress response. MRPL18 bears a downstream CUG start codon and generates a cytosolic isoform in a stress-dependent manner. Cytosolic MRPL18 incorporates into the 80S ribosome and facilitates ribosome engagement on mRNAs selected for translation during stress. MRPL18 knockdown has minimal effects on mitochondrial function but substantially dampens cytosolic HSP expression at the level of translation. Our results uncover a hitherto-uncharacterized stress-adaptation mechanism in mammalian cells, which involves formation of a 'hybrid' ribosome responsible for translational regulation during the cytosolic stress response.

Abstract
The classic heat shock (stress) response (HSR) was originally attributed to protein denaturation. However, heat shock protein (Hsp) induction occurs in many circumstances where no protein denaturation is observed. Recently considerable evidence has been accumulated to the favor of the "Membrane Sensor Hypothesis" which predicts that the level of Hsps can be changed as a result of alterations to the plasma membrane. This is especially pertinent to mild heat shock, such as occurs in fever. In this condition the sensitivity of many transient receptor potential (TRP) channels is particularly notable. Small temperature stresses can modulate TRP gating significantly and this is influenced by lipids. In addition, stress hormones often modify plasma membrane structure and function and thus initiate a cascade of events, which may affect HSR. The major transactivator heat shock factor-1 integrates the signals originating from the plasma membrane and orchestrates the expression of individual heat shock genes. We describe how these observations can be tested at the molecular level, for example, with the use of membrane perturbers and through computational calculations. An important fact which now starts to be addressed is that membranes are not homogeneous nor do all cells react identically. Lipidomics and cell profiling are beginning to address the above two points. Finally, we observe that a deregulated HSR is found in a large number of important diseases where more detailed knowledge of the molecular mechanisms involved may offer timely opportunities for clinical interventions and new, innovative drug treatments. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Membrane Structure and Function: Relevance in the Cell's Physiology, Pathology and Therapy.

Abstract
Deregulated expression of protein tyrosine phosphorylation has been implicated in testicular response to different stimuli. Herein, YES1, a nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase, was found to be significantly up-regulated in pachytene spermatocytes (PS) during early recovery from a transient testicular heat stress. Coculture of PS with Sertoli cells (SCs) could enhance the hyperthermia-induced YES1 activation, indicative of a positive regulation of the paracrine signaling. Moreover, SU6656, a selective YES1 inhibitor, was shown to effectively block YES1 activity, thereafter resulting in a dramatic increase of heat stress-induced apoptosis in primary cultured PS. Mechanistically, the antiapoptotic effect of YES1 activation in response to testicular heat insult may mediate via the regulation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)/metastasis-associated 1 (MTA1) cascade. From a clinical standpoint, a notably higher level of YES1 expression was observed in the pathological testis from varicocele patients as compared to a negligible staining in the control group. Taken together, our present results provide the first evidence that the YES1/ERK/MTA1/p53 cascade may serve as a naturally occurring, indispensable self-defensive mechanism maintaining apoptotic balance during meiotic heat stress. Our study may have also partially answered the question of how activation of signal pathways at the cell membrane surface interacts with the key regulatory events occurring in the nucleus during testicular heat shock.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are chaperones that are known to have important roles in facilitating protein synthesis, protein assembly and cellular protection. While HSPs are known to be induced by damaging exercise, little is known about how HSPs actually mediate skeletal muscle adaption to exercise. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of a heat shock pretreatment and the ensuing increase in HSP expression on early remodeling and signaling (2 and 48 h) events of the soleus (Sol) muscle following a bout of downhill running. Male Wistar rats (10 weeks old) were randomly assigned to control, eccentric exercise (EE; downhill running) or heat shock + eccentric exercise (HS; 41°C for 20 min, 48 h prior to exercise) groups. Markers of muscle damage, muscle regeneration and intracellular signaling were assessed. The phosphorylation (p) of HSP25, Akt, p70s6k, ERK1/2 and JNK proteins was also performed. As expected, following exercise the EE group had increased creatine kinase (CK; 2 h) and mononuclear cell infiltration (48 h) compared to controls. The EE group had an increase in p-HSP25, but there was no change in HSP72 expression, total protein concentration, or neonatal MHC content. Additionally, the EE group had increased p-p70s6k, p-ERK1/2, and p-JNK (2 h) compared to controls; however no changes in p-Akt were seen. In contrast, the HS group had reduced CK (2 h) and mononuclear cell infiltration (48 h) compared to EE. Moreover, the HS group had increased HSP72 content (2 and 48 h), total protein concentration (48 h), neonatal MHC content (2 and 48 h), p-HSP25 and p-p70s6k (2 h). Lastly, the HS group had reduced p-Akt (48 h) and p-ERK1/2 (2 h). These data suggest that heat shock pretreatment and/or the ensuing HSP72 response may protect against muscle damage, and enhance increases in total protein and neonatal MHC content following exercise. These changes appear to be independent of Akt and MAPK signaling pathways.

Abstract
Current cancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, radiation and hyperthermic therapy induce acute proteotoxic stress in tumour cells. A major challenge to cancer therapeutic efficacy is the recurrence of therapy-resistant tumours and how to overcome their emergence. The current study examines the concept that tumour cell exposure to acute proteotoxic stress results in the acquisition of a more advanced and aggressive cancer cell phenotype. Specifically, we determined whether heat stress resulted in an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and/or the enhancement of cell migration, components of an advanced and therapeutically resistant cancer phenotype. We identified that heat stress enhanced cell migration in both the lung A549, and breast MDA-MB-468 human adenocarcinoma cell lines, with A549 cells also undergoing a partial EMT. Moreover, in an in vivo model of thermally ablated liver metastases of the mouse colorectal MoCR cell line, immunohistological analysis of classical EMT markers demonstrated a shift to a more mesenchymal phenotype in the surviving tumour fraction, further demonstrating that thermal stress can induce epithelial plasticity. To identify a mechanism by which thermal stress modulates epithelial plasticity, we examined whether the major transcriptional regulator of the heat shock response, heat shock factor 1 (HSF1), was a required component. Knockdown of HSF1 in the A549 model did not prevent the associated morphological changes or enhanced migratory profile of heat stressed cells. Therefore, this study provides evidence that heat stress significantly impacts upon cancer cell epithelial plasticity and the migratory phenotype independent of HSF1. These findings further our understanding of novel biological downstream effects of heat stress and their potential independence from the classical heat shock pathway.

Abstract
Given the inherent therapeutic potential of the morphogenetic plasticity of adult human islets, the identification of factors controlling their cellular differentiation is of interest. The epidermal growth factor (EGF) family has been identified previously in the context of pancreatic organogenesis. We examined the role of EGF in an in vitro model whereby adult human islets are embedded in a collagen gel and dedifferentiated into duct-like epithelial structures (DLS). We demonstrated that DLS formation was EGF dependent, while residual DLS formation in the absence of added EGF was abrogated by EGF receptor inhibitor treatment. With respect to signaling, EGF administration led to an increase in c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) phosphorylation early in DLS formation and in AKT and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation late in the process of DLS formation, concomitant with the increased proliferation of dedifferentiated cells. In the absence of EGF, these phosphorylation changes are not seen and the typical increase in DLS epithelial cell proliferation seen after 10 days in culture is attenuated. Thus, in our model, EGF is necessary for islet cell dedifferentiation, playing an important role in both the onset of DLS formation (through JNK) and in the proliferation of these dedifferentiated cells (through AKT and ERK).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Stress stimuli such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) have been shown to induce insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1 serine phosphorylation and insulin resistance by transactivation of ErbB receptors. We aimed at elucidating the potential role of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) in mediating stress-induced ErbB receptors activation. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS p38MAPK effect on ErbBs transactivation and insulin signaling was assessed in Fao or HepG2 cells, exposed to stress stimuli, and on metabolic parameters in ob/ob and C57/BL6 mice. RESULTS High-fat diet-fed mice and ob/ob mice exhibited elevated hepatic p38MAPK activation associated with glucose intolerance and hyperinsulinemia. Liver expression of dominant-negative (DN)-p38MAPKα in ob/ob mice reduced fasting insulin levels and improved glucose tolerance, whereas C57/BL6 mice overexpressing wild-type p38MAPKα exhibited enhanced IRS-1 serine phosphorylation and reduced insulin-stimulated IRS-1 tyrosine phosphorylation. Fao or HepG2 cells exposed to TNF, anisomycin, or sphingomyelinase demonstrated rapid transactivation of ErbB receptors leading to PI3-kinase/Akt activation and IRS-1 serine phosphorylation. p38MAPK inhibition either by SB203580, by small interfering RNA, or by DN-p38MAPKα decreased ErbB receptors transactivation and IRS-1 serine phosphorylation and partially restored insulin-stimulated IRS-1 tyrosine phosphorylation. When cells were incubated with specific ErbB receptors antagonists or in cells lacking ErbB receptors, anisomycin- and TNF-induced IRS-1 serine phosphorylation was attenuated, despite intact p38MAPK activation. The stress-induced p38MAPK activation leading to ErbB receptors transactivation was associated with intracellular reactive oxygen species generation and was attenuated by treatment with antioxidants. CONCLUSIONS Hepatic p38MAPK is activated following various stress stimuli. This event is upstream to ErbB receptors transactivation and plays an important role in stress-induced IRS-1 serine phosphorylation and insulin resistance.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of heat stress (HS) on mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling involved in translation initiation after resistance exercise in human skeletal muscle. Eight young male subjects performed four sets of six maximal repetitions of knee extension exercises, with or without HS, in a randomized crossover design. HS was applied to the belly of the vastus lateralis by using a microwave therapy unit prior to and during exercise. Muscle biopsies were taken from the vastus lateralis before, immediately after, and 1 h after exercise. HS significantly increased the phosphorylation of Akt/PKB, mTOR, and ribosomal protein S6 at 1 h after exercise (P < 0.05), and the 4E-BP1 phosphorylation level, which had initially decreased with exercise, had recovered by 1 h after exercise with HS. In addition, the phosphorylation of ribosomal S6 kinase 1 was significantly increased immediately after exercise with HS (P < 0.05). These results indicate that HS enhances mTOR signaling after resistance exercise in human skeletal muscle.

Abstract
Balanced protein synthesis and degradation are crucial for proper cellular function. Protein synthesis is tightly coupled to energy status and nutrient levels by the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). Quality of newly synthesized polypeptides is maintained by the molecular chaperone and ubiquitin-proteasome systems. Little is known about how cells integrate information about the quantity and quality of translational products simultaneously. We demonstrate that cells distinguish moderate reductions in protein quality from severe protein misfolding using molecular chaperones to differentially regulate mTORC1 signaling. Moderate reduction of chaperone availability enhances mTORC1 signaling, whereas stress-induced complete depletion of chaperoning capacity suppresses mTORC1 signaling. Molecular chaperones regulate mTORC1 assembly in coordination with nutrient availability. This mechanism enables mTORC1 to rapidly detect and respond to environmental cues while also sensing intracellular protein misfolding. The tight linkage between protein quality and quantity control provides a plausible mechanism coupling protein misfolding with metabolic dyshomeostasis.

Abstract
In this study, we used 3T3-L1 preadipocytes as a model to investigate the effects of heat stimulation on adipogenesis, which is a key process in the development of obesity. Heat stimulation at 43 degrees C for 60 min significantly reduced lipid accumulation, as measured by Oil Red-O assay. In the early phase of adipogenesis, heat stimulation almost completely blocked the increase of CCAAT/enhancer binding protein delta (C/EBPdelta) gene expression and delayed the onset of the increase of C/EBPbeta gene expression. The expression of proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma), which is regulated by these factors, was also reduced. In the later phase of adipogenesis, the induction of adipocyte-specific genes, such as C/EBPalpha, adipocyte protein 2 (aP2), lipoprotein lipase (LPL), adiponectin, and glucose transporter 4 (Glut4), which are regulated by PPARgamma, was reduced. However, adipogenesis was not significantly reduced if heat stimulation was carried out after the early phase of adipogenesis. These results suggest that heat stimulation reduces adipogenesis by decreasing the expression of adipogenesis-related transcriptional factors during early adipogenesis.

Abstract
mTORC2 is a multiprotein kinase composed of mTOR, mLST8, PRR5, mSIN1 and Rictor. The complex is insensitive to rapamycin and has demonstrated functions controlling cell growth, motility, invasion and cytoskeletal assembly. mTORC2 is the major hydrophobic domain kinase which renders Akt fully active via phosphorylation on serine 473. We isolated Hsp70 as a putative Rictor interacting protein in a yeast two-hybrid assay and confirmed this interaction via co-immunoprecipitation and colocalization experiments. In cells expressing an antisense RNA targeting Hsp70, mTORC2 formation and activity were impaired. Moreover, in cells lacking Hsp70 expression, mTORC2 activity was inhibited following heat shock while controls demonstrated increased mTORC2 activity. These differential effects on mTORC2 activity were specific, in that mTORC1 did not demonstrate Hsp70-dependent alterations under these conditions. These data suggest that Hsp70 is a component of mTORC2 and is required for proper assembly and activity of the kinase both constitutively and following heat shock.

Abstract
The phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 (rpS6), which occurs in response to a wide variety of stimuli on five evolutionarily conserved serine residues, has attracted much attention since its discovery more than three decades ago. However, despite a large body of information on the respective kinases and the signal transduction pathways, the role of this phosphorylation remained obscure. It is only recent that targeting the genes encoding rpS6, the phosphorylatable serine residues or the respective kinases that the unique role of rpS6 and its posttranslational modification have started to be elucidated. This review focuses primarily on the critical role of rpS6 for mouse development, the pathways that transduce various signals into rpS6 phosphorylation, and the physiological functions of this modification. The mechanism(s) underlying the diverse effects of rpS6 phosphorylation on cellular and organismal physiology has yet to be determined. However, a model emerging from the currently available data suggests that rpS6 phosphorylation operates, at least partly, by counteracting positive signals simultaneously induced by rpS6 kinase, and thus might be involved in fine-tuning of the cellular response to these signals.

Abstract
Heat shock (HS), like many other stresses, induces specific and highly regulated signaling cascades that promote cellular homeostasis. The three major mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) and protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) are the most notable of these HS-stimulated pathways. Their activation occurs rapidly and sooner than the transcriptional upregulation of heat shock proteins (Hsp), which generate a transient state of extreme resistance against subsequent thermal stress. The direct connection of these signaling pathways to cellular death or survival mechanisms suggests that they contribute importantly to the HS response. Some of them may counteract early noxious effects of heat, while others may bolster key apoptosis events. The triggering events responsible for activating these pathways are unclear. Protein denaturation, specific and nonspecific receptor activation, membrane alteration and chromatin structure perturbation are potential initiating factors.

Abstract
"Membrane regulation" of stress responses in various systems is widely studied. In poikilotherms, membrane rigidification could be the first reaction to cold perception: reducing membrane fluidity of membranes at physiological temperatures is coupled with enhanced cold inducibility of a number of genes, including desaturases (see J.L. Harwood's article in this Proceedings volume). A similar role of changes in membrane physical state in heat (oxidative stress, etc.) sensing- and signaling gained support recently from prokaryotes to mammalian cells. Stress-induced remodeling of membrane lipids could influence generation, transduction, and deactivation of stress signals, either through global effects on the fluidity of the membrane matrix, or by specific interactions of boundary (or raft) lipids with receptor proteins, lipases, ion channels, etc. Our data point to membranes not only as targets of stress, but also as sensors in activating a stress response.

Abstract
Hyperthermia can cause brain damage and also exacerbate the brain damage produced by stroke and amphetamines. The developing brain is especially sensitive to hyperthermia. The severity of, and mechanisms underlying, hyperthermia-induced neuronal death depend on both temperature and duration of exposure. Severe hyperthermia can produce necrotic neuronal death. For a window of less severe heat stresses, cultured neurons exhibit a delayed death with apoptotic characteristics including cytochrome c release and caspase activation. Little is known about mechanisms of hyperthermia-induced damage upstream of these late apoptotic effects. This chapter considers several possible upstream mechanisms, drawing on both in vivo and in vitro studies of the nervous system and other tissues. Hyperthermia-induced damage in some non-neuronal cells includes endoplasmic reticular stress due to denaturing of nascent polypeptide chains, as well as nuclear and cytoskeletal damage. Evidence is presented that hyperthermia produces mitochondrial damage, including depolarization, in cultured mammalian neurons.

Abstract
The initial steps of heat stress in A431 cells were previously characterized by ligand-independent EGFR transactivation via an unknown mechanism and concomitant secretion of Hsp70. In this work we demonstrate that the depletion of Hsp70 from the conditioned medium of heated cells abolishes EGFR transactivation indicating that secreted Hsp70 is essential for EGFR transactivation during heat shock. This notion is supported by the findings that purified Hsp70 can induce EGFR transactivation and the activation of EGFR-dependent signaling pathways. Both heat stress and pure Hsp70 stimulate activation of TLR2/4 and their association with EGFR. These results suggest that the secreted Hsp70 mediates the cross-communication of TLR and EGFR signaling systems in A431 cells.

Abstract
The TOR (target of rapamycin) pathway is an evolutionarily conserved signaling module regulating cell growth (accumulation of mass) in response to a variety of environmental cues such as nutrient availability, hypoxia, DNA damage and osmotic stress. Its pivotal role in cellular and organismal homeostasis is reflected in the fact that unrestrained signaling activity in mammals is associated with the occurrence of disease states including inflammation, cancer and diabetes. The existence of TOR homologs in unicellular organisms whose growth is affected by environmental factors, such as temperature, nutrients and osmolarity, suggests an ancient role for the TOR signaling network in the surveillance of stress conditions. Here, we will summarize recent advances in the TOR signaling field with special emphasis on how stress conditions impinge on insulin/insulin-like growth factor signaling/TOR signaling.

Abstract
In our earlier work we have demonstrated that the treatment of squamous carcinoma cell line A431 with a pharmacological inhibitor of phospholipase C activity, U73122, resulted in fast release of stress-inducible heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) into the extracellular medium (Evdonin et al., Cancer Cell Int., 4, 2, 2004). The purpose of the present study was to identify cellular organelles involved in the release of Hsp70 from A431 cells. We determined that Hsp70 is present in granules located at the periphery of cells, which had been treated with U73122 or subjected to heat shock. An inhibitor of the classical protein export pathway, brefeldin A was found to prevent the U73122-induced appearance of Hsp70 in the extracellular medium and in the peripheral granules. These findings suggest that vesicular transport is involved in Hsp70 release. The Hsp70-containing granules did not carry markers specific for lipid bodies, endosomes, or lysosomes. However, they were positive for a marker of secretory granules, i.e. chromogranin A. The levels of extracellular Hsp70 and chromogranin A were found to increase simultaneously. The secretory-like granule-dependent transport of Hsp70 was also studied in minimally transformed human HaCaT keratinocytes. We found that after U73122 and heat stress treatment, HaCaT cells secreted Hsp70 in a manner similar to A431 cells. Collectively our results suggest that human keratinocyte-derived cells release Hsp70 in the extracellular medium through a pathway involving secretory-like granules.

Abstract
Epithelial metaplasia occurs when one predominant cell type in a tissue is replaced by another, and is frequently associated with an increased risk of subsequent neoplasia. In both mouse and human pancreas, acinar-to-ductal metaplasia has been implicated in the generation of cancer precursors. We show that pancreatic epithelial explants undergo spontaneous acinar-to-ductal metaplasia in response to EGFR signaling, and that this change in epithelial character is associated with the appearance of nestin-positive transitional cells. Lineage tracing involving Cre/lox-mediated genetic cell labeling reveals that acinar-to-ductal metaplasia represents a true transdifferentiation event, mediated by initial dedifferentiation of mature exocrine cells to generate a population of nestin-positive precursors, similar to those observed during early pancreatic development. These results demonstrate that a latent precursor potential resides within mature exocrine cells, and that this potential is regulated by EGF receptor signaling. In addition, these observations provide a novel example of rigorously documented transdifferentiation within mature mammalian epithelium, and suggest that plasticity of mature cell types may play a role in the generation of neoplastic precursors.

Abstract
We have developed an Entamoeba histolytica genomic DNA microarray and used it to develop a transcriptional profile of 1,971 E. histolytica (HM-1:IMSS) genes. The arrays accurately detected message abundance and 31-47% of amebic genes were expressed under standard tissue culture conditions (levels detectable by Northern blot analysis or RT-PCR respectively). Genes expressed at high levels ( approximately 2% of total) included actin (8.m00351), and ribosomal genes (20.m00312). Moderately expressed genes ( approximately 14% of total) included cysteine proteinase (191.m00117), profilin (156.m00098), and an Argonaute family member (11.m00378). Genes with low-level expression ( approximately 15% of total) included Ariel1 (160.m00087). Genes with very low expression ( approximately 16% of total) and those not expressed ( approximately 52% of total) included encystation-specific genes such as Jacob cyst wall glycoprotein (33.m00261), chitin synthase (3.m00544), and chitinase (22.m00311). Transcriptional modulation could be detected using the arrays with 17% of genes upregulated at least two-fold in response to heat shock. These included heat shock proteins (119.m00119 and 279.m00091), cyst wall glycoprotein Jacob (33.m00261), and ubiquitin-associated proteins (16.m00343; 195.m00092). Using Caco-2 cells to model the host-parasite interaction, we verified that host cell killing was dependent on live ameba. However, surprisingly these events did not appear to induce major transcriptional changes in the parasites.

Abstract
Annexin 2 is a profibrinolytic co-receptor for plasminogen and tissue plasminogen activator that stimulates activation of the major fibrinolysin, plasmin, at cell surfaces. In human subjects, overexpression of annexin 2 in acute promyelocytic leukemia leads to a bleeding diathesis reflective of excessive cell surface annexin 2-dependent generation of plasmin (Menell, J. S., Cesarman, G. M., Jacovina, A. T., McLaughlin, M. A., Lev, E. A., and Hajjar, K. A. (1999) N. Engl. J. Med. 340, 994-1004). In addition, mice completely deficient in annexin 2 display fibrin accumulation within blood vessels and impaired clearance of injury-induced thrombi (Ling Q., Jacovina, A.T., Deora, A.B., Febbraio, M., Simantov, R., Silverstein, R. L., Hempstead, B. L., Mark, W., and Hajjar, K. A. (2004) J. Clin. Investig. 113, 38-48). Here, we show that endothelial cell annexin 2, a protein that lacks a typical signal peptide, translocates from the cytoplasm to the extracytoplasmic plasma membrane in response to brief temperature stress both in vitro and in vivo in the absence of cell death or cell lysis. This regulated response is independent of new protein or mRNA synthesis and does not require the classical endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi pathway. Temperature stress-induced annexin 2 translocation is dependent on both expression of protein p11 (S100A10) and tyrosine phosphorylation of annexin 2 because annexin 2 release is completely eliminated on depletion of p11, inactivation of tyrosine kinase, or mutation of tyrosine 23. Translocation of annexin 2 to the cell surface dramatically increases tissue plasminogen activator-dependent plasminogen activation potential and may represent a novel stress-induced protein secretion pathway.

Abstract
We have investigated the role of insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) in heat shock-induced activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and phosphatidylinositol-3 ' kinase (PI3-K) pathways. We utilized mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) devoid of endogenous IGF-IR (R-) and MEFs overexpressing human IGF-IR (WT) and examined the activation kinetics of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and Akt following heat shock treatment. There were no differences in the kinetics or temperature dependence of activation of either ERK or Akt between the cell lines. As expected, heat shock failed to induce autophosphorylation of IGF-IR overexpressed in WT cells. Surprisingly, the autophosphorylation of endogenous epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), which is thought to play an important role in heat shock-induced activation of the MAPK and PI3-K pathways, was not observed in either WT or R-cells. These results suggest that neither IGF-IR nor EGFR contributes to the heat shock -induced activation of ERK and Akt in these cell lines.

Abstract
Cisplatin (CDDP) is an efficient DNA-damaging antitumor agent employed for the treatment of various human cancers. CDDP activates nuclear as well as cytoplasmatic signaling pathways involved in regulation of the cell cycle, damage repair and programmed cell death. Here we report that CDDP also activates a membrane-integrated protein, the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). We show that EGFR is activated in response to CDDP in various types of cells that overexpress the receptor, including transformed human glioma cells and human breast tumor cells. CDDP-induced EGFR activation requires its kinase activity, as it can be blocked by an EGFR kinase inhibitor or by expression of a kinase dead receptor. We also show that CDDP-induced EGFR activation is independent of receptor ligand. CDDP induces the activation of c-Src, and EGFR activation is blocked by Src-family inhibitor PP1, suggesting that Src kinases mediate CDDP-induced EGFR activation. We propose that EGFR activation in response to CDDP is a survival response, since inhibition of EGFR activation enhances CDDP-induced death. These findings show that signals generated by DNA damage can modulate EGFR activity, and argue that interfering with CDDP-induced EGFR activation in tumor cells might be a useful approach to sensitize these cells to genotoxic agents.

Abstract
Transmembrane proteins of the tetraspanin superfamily are assembled in multimeric complexes on the cell surface. Spatial orientation of tetraspanins within these complexes may affect signaling functions of the associated transmembrane receptors (e.g. integrins, receptor-type tyrosine kinases). The structural determinants that control assembly of the tetraspanin complexes are unknown. We have found that various tetraspanins and the alpha(3) integrin subunit are palmitoylated. The stability and molecular composition of the palmitoylated alpha(3)beta(1)-tetraspanin complexes are not affected by adhesion. To assess the significance of palmitoylation in the function of the alpha(3)beta(1)-tetraspanin complexes we mapped the sites of palmitoylation for CD151. Mutation of six cysteines, Cys(11), Cys(15), Cys(79), Cys(80), Cys(242), and Cys(243) was necessary to completely abolish palmitoylation of CD151. The association of the palmitoylation-deficient mutant of CD151 (CD151Cys8) with CD81 and CD63 was markedly decreased, but the interaction of the alpha(3)beta(1)-CD151Cys8 complex with phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase was not affected. Ectopic expression of CD151Cys8 in Rat-1 cells impaired the interactions of the endogenous CD63 and CD81 with the alpha(3)beta(1) integrin. Although the expression of the palmitoylation-deficient CD151 does not change cell spreading on the extracellular matrix, the number of focal adhesions increased. Adhesion-induced phosphorylation of PKB/c-Akt is markedly increased in cells expressing a palmitoylation-deficient mutant, thereby providing direct evidence for the role of the tetraspanin microdomains in regulation of the integrin-dependent phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling pathway. In contrast, activation of FAK and ERK1/2 were not affected by the expression of CD151Cys8. Our results demonstrate that palmitoylation of tetraspanins is critical not only for the organization of the integrin-tetraspanin microdomains but also has a specific role in modulation of adhesion-dependent signaling.

Abstract
Heat shock (HS) induces a wide variety of biological processes, including inhibition of protein synthesis, elevated expression of heat shock proteins, induction of thermotolerance, and apoptotic cell death in a dose-dependent manner. We compared phosphorylated proteins in heat-shocked and thermotolerant cells using proteome analysis. After HS treatment of control RIF-1 and their thermotolerant derivatives, TR-RIF-1 cells, cellular proteins were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and the phosphorylated proteins were detected with the anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies. We found that 93 proteins showed significant changes in phosphorylation between control and thermotolerant cells as a function of recovery time after HS; we identified 81 of these proteins with peptide mass fingerprinting using MALDI-TOF MS after in-gel trypsin digestion. These phosphorylated proteins exhibit various cellular functions, including chaperones, ion channels, signaling molecules, in transcription and translation processes, in amino acid biosynthesis, oxidoreduction, energy metabolism, and cell motility or structure, suggesting that HS turns on the various signaling pathways by activating protein-tyrosine kinases (PTKs). Of these, 20 proteins were previously identified phosphorylated proteins and 64 were newly identified. These proteins can be grouped into three families: 1) proteins highly phosphorylated in TR-RIF-1 cells at basal level and phosphorylated more significantly by HS in RIF-1 than TR-RIF-1; 2) proteins highly phosphorylated in control RIF-1 cells at basal level and phosphorylated more easily by HS in TR-RIF-1 than in RIF-1 cells; and 3) proteins with a similar basal phosphorylation level in both RIF-1 and TR-RIF-1 cells and responding to HS similarly in both cells. Most of the phosphorylated proteins are presumably involved in HS signaling in different ways, with the first and second families of proteins influencing thermotolerance. The possible tyrosine phosphorylation sites, the possible PTKs phosphorylating these proteins, and the proteins binding to these phosphorylated sites were predicted by the Netphos, ScanProsite, and Scansite programs. These results suggest that HS can activate various PTKs and HS responses can be regulated by phosphorylations of proteins having various functions.

Abstract
The effects of lemon pure essential oils on the heat shock-induced apoptosis in human astrocytes cell line CCF-STTG1 were examined. In previous studies, heat shock has been reported to induce the apoptosis or programmed cell death through the activation of caspase-3. Treatment of heat shock on CCF-STTG1 cells markedly induced apoptotic cell death as determined by flow cytometry. Interestingly, pre-treatment with lemon pure essential oils on CCF-STTG1 cells inhibited the heat shock-induced apoptosis. Lemon oil also inhibited the heat shock-induced apoptosis in primary cultured rat astrocytes. To determine whether lemon oil inhibits the heat shock-induced activation of the apoptotic proteases, activation of caspase-3 was assessed by Western blotting. DNA fragmentation, giemsa staining, and heat shock-induced activation of caspase-3 were blocked by lemon pure essential oil, which is consistent with flow cytometry. Poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP), the cysteine protease substrate, was fragmented as a consequence of apoptosis by heat shock. Lemon oil inhibited the PARP fragmentation. These results suggest that lemon pure essential oils may modulate the apoptosis through the activation of the interleukin-1 beta -converting enzyme-like caspases.

Abstract
Glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK-3beta) is a central component in many critical intracellular signaling mechanisms. These include the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt cell survival pathway, which inhibits GSK-3beta activity. GSK-3beta itself inhibits the activation of several transcription factors, which are important cell survival factors, such as heat shock factor 1. These factors likely contribute to the recent revelation that GSK-3beta is a pro-apoptotic enzyme. Recently, lithium has been identified as a selective and direct inhibitor of GSK-3beta. Based on these findings, we have proposed that part of the neuroprotectant properties of lithium is due to its ability to inhibit GSK-3beta, and thus block the facilitation of apoptosis produced by GSK-3beta. Since several anticonvulsants recently have been shown to be effective mood stabilizers, we examined if these agents are capable of protecting cells from GSK-3beta-facilitated apoptosis. In addition to lithium, both valproic acid and lamotrigine, but not carbamazepine, provided protection from GSK-3beta-facilitated apoptosis in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. These results demonstrate that several drugs therapeutic for bipolar disorder can provide neuroprotection by inhibiting the pro-apoptotic effects of GSK-3beta, providing new evidence that dysregulation of GSK-3beta may contribute to the pathophysiology of bipolar disorder.

Abstract
In addition to inducing new transcriptional activities that lead within a few hours to the accumulation of heat shock proteins (Hsps), heat shock activates within minutes the major signaling transduction pathways involving mitogen-activated protein kinases, extracellular signal-regulated kinase, stress-activated protein kinase 1 (SAPK1)-c-Jun N-terminal kinase, and SAPK2-p38. These kinases are involved in both survival and death pathways in response to other stresses and may, therefore, contribute significantly to the heat shock response. In the case of p38, the activation leads to the phosphorylation and activation of one of the Hsps, Hsp27. Phosphorylation occurs very early during stress, is tightly regulated, and results from the triggering of a highly specific heat shock-sensing pathway.

Abstract
Hyperthermia such as that occurring during fever may improve cell survival during infection, although its mechanism of action is largely unknown. Here we show that acute exposure to mild, but not severe, heat shock induces the synthesis of cyclin D1 that plays a critical role(s) in G1 progression of the cell cycle. This induction seemed to be regulated through multiple Ras signal pathways involving extracellular signal-regulated kinase, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and Rac1/NADPH oxidase, all of which have well been documented to be responsible for growth factor-induced cyclin D1 expression. In a physiological sense, mild heat shock may regulate cell proliferation through inducing cyclin D1 along with growth factors.

Abstract
The cellular pathways involved in the impairment of insulin signaling by cellular stress, triggered by the inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) or by translational inhibitors like cycloheximide and anisomycin were studied. Similar to TNF, cycloheximide and anisomycin stimulated serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and IRS-2, reduced their ability to interact with the insulin receptor, inhibited the insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS proteins, and diminished their association with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). These defects were partially reversed by wortmannin and LY294002, indicating that a PI3K-regulated step is critical for the impairment of insulin signaling by cellular stress. Induction of cellular stress resulted in complex formation between PI3K and ErbB2/ErbB3 and enhanced PI3K activity, implicating ErbB proteins as downstream effectors of stress-induced insulin resistance. Indeed, stimulation of ErbB2/ErbB3 by NDFbeta1, the ErbB3 ligand, inhibited IRS protein tyrosine phosphorylation and recruitment of downstream effectors. Specific inhibitors of the ErbB2 tyrosine kinase abrogated the activation of ErbB2/ErbB3 and in parallel prevented the reduction in IRS protein functions. Taken together, our results suggest a novel mechanism by which cellular stress induces cross-talk between two different signaling pathways. Stress-dependent transactivation of ErbB2/ErbB3 receptors triggers a PI3K cascade that induces serine phosphorylation of IRS proteins culminating in insulin resistance.

Abstract
Thermal stress has been considered to be among the most important determinants of organismal distribution in the rocky intertidal zone. Yet our understanding of how body temperatures experienced under field conditions vary in space and time, and of how these temperatures translate into physiological performance, is still rudimentary. We continuously monitored temperatures at a site in central California for a period of two years, using loggers designed to mimic the thermal characteristics of mussels, Mytilus californianus. Model mussel temperatures were recorded on both a horizontal and a vertical, north-facing microsite, and in an adjacent tidepool. We periodically measured levels of heat shock proteins (Hsp70), a measure of thermal stress, from mussels at each microsite. Mussel temperatures were consistently higher on the horizontal surface than on the vertical surface, and differences in body temperature between these sites were reflected in the amount of Hsp70. Seasonal peaks in extreme high temperatures ("acute" high temperatures) did not always coincide with peaks in average daily maxima ("chronic" high temperatures), suggesting that the time history of body temperature may be an important factor in determining levels of thermal stress. Temporal patterns in body temperature during low tide were decoupled from patterns in water temperature, suggesting that water temperature is an ineffective metric of thermal stress for intertidal organisms. This study demonstrates that spatial and temporal variability in thermal stress can be highly complex, and "snapshot" sampling of temperature and biochemical indices may not always be a reliable method for defining thermal stress at a site.

Abstract
Most of the signal pathways involved in ultraviolet (UV)-induced skin carcinogenesis are thought to originate at plasma membrane receptors. However, UVA-induced signal transduction to downstream ribosomal protein S6 kinases, p70(S6K) and p90(RSK), is not well understood. In this report, we show that UVA stimulation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) may lead to activation of p70(S6K)/p90(RSK) through phosphatidyl isositol (PI)-3 kinase and extracellular receptor-activated kinases (ERKs). Evidence is provided that phosphorylation and activation of p70(S6K)/p90(RSK) induced by UVA were prevented in Egfr(-/-) cells and were also markedly inhibited by the EGFR-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors AG1478 and PD153035. Furthermore, EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors and EGFR deficiency significantly suppressed activation of PI-3 kinase and ERKs in regulating activation of p90(RSK)/p70(S6K) but had no effect on activation of c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinases (JNKs) and p38 kinase in response to UVA. Thus, our results suggest that UVA-induced EGFR signaling may be required for activation of p90(RSK)/p70(S6K), PI-3 kinase, and ERKs but not JNKs or p38 kinase.

Abstract
Rac1 has been implicated in a wide variety of biological processes, including actin remodeling and various signaling cascades. Here we have examined whether Rac1 might be involved in heat shock-induced cell signaling. We found that Rat2 stable cells expressing a dominant negative Rac1 mutant, RacN17 (Rat2-RacN17), were significantly more tolerant to heat shock than control Rat2 cells, and simultaneously inhibited the activation of SAPK/JNK by heat shock compared to control Rat2 cells. However, no discernible effect was observed in typical heat shock responses including total protein synthesis and heat shock protein synthesis. To identify the proteins involved in this difference, we separated the proteins of both Rat2 and Rat2-RacN17 cell lines after heat shock using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and identified the differentially expressed proteins by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) after in-gel trypsin digestion. Differentially expressed proteins between two cell lines were identified as vimentin. Rat2-RacN17 cells showed significant changes in vimentin as well as marked changes in vimentin reorganization by heat shock. The vimentin changes were identified as N-terminal head domain cleavage. These results suggest that Rac1 plays a pivotal role in the heat shock-induced signaling cascade by modifying intermediate vimentin filaments.

Abstract
Glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK3beta) is a fascinating enzyme with an astoundingly diverse number of actions in intracellular signaling systems. GSK3beta activity is regulated by serine (inhibitory) and tyrosine (stimulatory) phosphorylation, by protein complex formation, and by its intracellular localization. GSK3beta phosphorylates and thereby regulates the functions of many metabolic, signaling, and structural proteins. Notable among the signaling proteins regulated by GSK3beta are the many transcription factors, including activator protein-1, cyclic AMP response element binding protein, heat shock factor-1, nuclear factor of activated T cells, Myc, beta-catenin, CCAAT/enhancer binding protein, and NFkappaB. Lithium, the primary therapeutic agent for bipolar mood disorder, is a selective inhibitor of GSK3beta. This raises the possibility that dysregulation of GSK3beta and its inhibition by lithium may contribute to the disorder and its treatment, respectively. GSK3beta has been linked to all of the primary abnormalities associated with Alzheimer's disease. These include interactions between GSK3beta and components of the plaque-producing amyloid system, the participation of GSK3beta in phosphorylating the microtubule-binding protein tau that may contribute to the formation of neurofibrillary tangles, and interactions of GSK3beta with presenilin and other Alzheimer's disease-associated proteins. GSK3beta also regulates cell survival, as it facilitates a variety of apoptotic mechanisms, and lithium provides protection from many insults. Thus, GSK3beta has a central role regulating neuronal plasticity, gene expression, and cell survival, and may be a key component of certain psychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The novel serine-threonine kinase Akt is a critical enzyme in cell survival. We investigated the roles of the Akt pathway and apoptotic signals in (1) Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells in a hyperosmotic condition in vitro and (2) in the inner medulla of dehydrated rat in vivo. METHODS The in vivo experiments were performed in 24- and 48-hour water-restricted rats. Hyperosmolality-stimulated Akt phosphorylation was examined in MDCK cells. Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K) inhibitors, the dominant-negative mutant of PI3-K, the dominant-negative mutant of Akt, and the dominant-active form of Akt were used to examine the roles of the PI3-K/Akt pathways in renal tubular cell apoptosis. RESULTS The amount of phosphorylated Akt protein was increased in the inner medulla of dehydrated rats. Hyperosmolality induced by the addition of NaCl, urea, and raffinose phosphorylated Akt in MDCK cells in an osmolality-dependent manner. PI3-K inhibitors and the dominant-negative mutant of PI3-K inhibited the hyperosmolality-induced phosphorylation of Akt. Raising the media osmolality from a normal level to 500 or 600 mOsm/kg H2O final osmolality elicited apoptotic changes such as nucleosomal laddering of DNA and an increment of caspase-3 activity and increased activity in the cell death enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Dominant-active Akt prevented the mild hyperosmolality-induced apoptosis, while inhibition of the PI3-K/Akt pathways promoted apoptosis. CONCLUSION The Akt pathway is activated by hyperosmolality in vitro and in vivo, and activation of Akt prevents the mild hyperosmolality-induced apoptotic changes in MDCK cells. PI3-K/Akt pathways are involved in a hypertonic condition that confers the balance between cell survival and apoptosis.

Abstract
Heat shock induces c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation as well as heat shock protein (HSP) expression through activation of the heat shock factor (HSF), but its signal pathway is not clearly understood. Since a small GTPase Rac1 has been suggested to participate in the cellular response to stresses, we examined whether Rac1 is involved in the heat shock response. Here we show that moderate heat shock (39-41 degrees C) induces membrane translocation of Rac1 and membrane ruffling in a Rac1-dependent manner. In addition, Rac1N17, a dominant negative mutant of Rac1, significantly inhibited JNK activation by heat shock. Since Rac1V12 was able to activate JNK, it is suggested that heat shock may activate JNK via Rac1. Similar inhibition by Rac1N17 of HSF activation in response to heat shock was observed. However, inhibitory effects of Rac1N17 on heat shock-induced JNK and HSF activation were reduced as the heat shock temperature increased. Rac1N17 also inhibited HSF activation by l-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid, a proline analog, and heavy metals (CdCl)), suggesting that Rac1 may be linked to HSF activation by denaturation of polypeptides in response to various proteotoxic stresses. However, Rac1N17 did not prevent phosphorylation of HSF1 in response to these proteotoxic stresses. Interestingly, a constitutively active mutant Rac1V12 did not activate the HSF. Therefore, Rac1 activation may be necessary, but not sufficient, for heat shock-inducible HSF activation and HSP expression, or otherwise a signal pathway(s) involving Rac1 may be indirectly involved in the HSF activation. In sum, we suggest that Rac1 may play a critical role(s) in several aspects of the heat shock response.

Abstract
We have investigated heat shock stimulation of MAPK cascades in an interleukin 3-dependent cell line, BaF3. Following exposure to 42 degrees C, the stress-activated JNK MAPKs were phosphorylated and activated, but p38 MAPKs remained unaffected. Surprisingly, heat shock also activated ERK MAPKs in a potent (>60-fold), delayed (>30 min), and sustained (>/=120 min) manner. These characteristics suggested a novel mechanism of ERK MAPK activation and became the focus of this study. A MEK-specific inhibitor, PD98059, inhibited heat shock ERK MAPK activation by >75%. Surprisingly, a role for Ras in the heat shock response was eliminated by the failure of a dominant-negative Ras(Asn-17) mutant to inhibit ERK MAPK activation and the failure to observe increases in Ras.GTP. Heat shock also failed to stimulate activation of A-, B-, and c-Raf. Instead, a serine/threonine phosphatase inhibitor, okadaic acid, activated ERK MAPK in a similar manner to heat shock. Furthermore, pretreatment with suramin, generally recognized as a broad range inhibitor of growth factor receptors, inhibited both okadaic acid-stimulated and heat shock-stimulated ERK MAPK activity by >40%. Inhibiting ERK MAPK activation during heat shock with PD98059 enhanced losses in cell viability. These results demonstrate Ras- and Raf-independent ERK MAPK activation maintains cell viability following heat shock.

Abstract
Cell stress is implicated in a number of pathological states of metabolism, such as ischaemia, reperfusion and apoptosis in heart, neurons and other tissues. While it is known that the ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channel plays a role during metabolic abnormality, little information is available about the direct response of this channel to cell stress. Using photoirradiation stimulation, we studied the effects of cell stress on both native and cloned KATP channels. Single KATP channel currents were recorded from cell-attached and inside-out patches of rat ventricular myocytes and COS-1 cells coexpressing SUR2 and Kir6.2. KATP channel activity increased within < 1 min upon irradiation. The activity resulted from increased maximal open probability and decreased ATP inhibition. The effects remained after the irradiation was stopped. Irradiation also affected the channels formed only by Kir6.2DeltaC35. The irradiation-induced activation was comparable to that induced by phosphoinositides. Analysis of phosphatidylinositol composition revealed an elevated phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate level with irradiation. Wortmannin, an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol kinases, decreased both the irradiation-induced channel activity and the production of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphates. Radical scavengers also reduced the irradiation-induced activation, suggesting a role for free radicals, an immediate product of photoirradiation. We conclude that photoirradiation can modify the single-channel properties of KATP, which appears to be mediated by phosphoinositides. Our study suggests that cellular stress may be linked with KATP channels, and we offer a putative mechanism for such a linkage.

Abstract
Elevated temperatures activate the survival promoters Akt and heat shock factor-1 (HSF-1), a transcription factor that induces the expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs), such as HSP-70. Because neuronal mechanisms controlling these responses are not known, these were investigated in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. Heat shock (45 degrees C) rapidly activated Akt, extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2), and p38, but only Akt was activated in a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI-3K)-dependent manner, as the PI-3K inhibitors LY294002 and wortmannin blocked Akt activation, but not ERK1/2 or p38 activation. Akt activation was not blocked by inhibition of p38 or ERK1/2, indicating the independence of these signaling systems. Heat shock treatment also caused a rapid increase in HSF-1 DNA binding activity that was partially dependent on PI-3K activity, as both the PI-3K inhibitors attenuated this response. Because Akt inhibits glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK-3beta), an enzyme that facilitates cell death, we tested if GSK-3beta is a negative regulator of HSF-1 activation. Overexpression of GSK-3beta impaired heat shock-induced activation of HSF-1, and also reduced HSP-70 production, which was partially restored by the GSK-3beta inhibitor lithium. Thus, heat shock-induced activation of PI-3K and the inhibitory effect of GSK-3beta on HSF-1 activation and HSP-70 expression imply that Akt-induced inhibition of GSK-3beta contributes to the activation of HSF-1.

Abstract
The potential role of glycogen synthase kinase-3beta in modulating apoptosis was examined in human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. Staurosporine treatment caused time- and concentration-dependent increases in the activities of caspase-3 and caspase-9 but not caspase-1, increased proteolysis of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, and induced morphological changes consistent with apoptosis. Overexpression of glycogen synthase kinase-3beta to levels 3.5 times that in control cells did not alter basal indices of apoptosis but potentiated staurosporine-induced activation of caspase-3, caspase-9, proteolysis of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, and morphological changes indicative of apoptosis. Inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase-3beta by lithium attenuated the enhanced staurosporine-induced activation of caspase-3 in cells overexpressing glycogen synthase kinase-3beta. In cells subjected to heat shock, caspase-3 activity was more than three times greater in glycogen synthase kinase-3beta-transfected than control cells, and this potentiated response was inhibited by lithium treatment. Thus, glycogen synthase kinase-3beta facilitated apoptosis induced by two experimental paradigms. These findings indicate that glycogen synthase kinase-3beta may contribute to pro-apoptotic-signaling activity, that inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase-3beta can contribute to anti-apoptotic-signaling mechanisms, and that the neuroprotective actions of lithium may be due in part to its inhibitory modulation of glycogen synthase kinase-3beta.
