Abstract
Integrin activation resulting in enhanced adhesion to the extracellular matrix plays a key role in fundamental cellular processes. Although G-protein coupled receptor-mediated integrin activation has been extensively studied in non-adherent migratory cells such as leukocytes and platelets, much less is known about the regulation and functional impact of integrin activation in adherent stationary cells such as airway smooth muscle. Here we show that two different asthmagenic cytokines, IL-13 and IL-17A, activate type I and IL-17 cytokine receptor families respectively, to enhance adhesion of muscle to the matrix. These cytokines also induce activation of β1 integrins as detected by the conformation-specific antibody HUTS-4. Moreover, HUTS-4 binding is significantly increased in the smooth muscle of patients with asthma compared to healthy controls, suggesting a disease-relevant role for aberrant integrin activation. Indeed, we find integrin activation induced by a β1 activating antibody, the divalent cation manganese, or the synthetic peptide β1-CHAMP, dramatically enhances force transmission in collagen gels, mouse tracheal rings, and human bronchial rings even in the absence of cytokines. We further demonstrate that cytokine-induced activation of β1 integrins is regulated by a common pathway of NF-κB-mediated induction of RhoA and its effector Rho kinase, which in turn stimulates PIP5K1γ-mediated synthesis of PIP2 resulting in β1 integrin activation. Taken together, these data identify a previously unknown pathway by which type I and IL-17 cytokine receptor family stimulation induces functionally relevant β1 integrin activation in adherent smooth muscle and help explain the exaggerated force transmission that characterizes chronic airways diseases such as asthma.

J Biol Chem 2024; 300:105583.

Abstract
Membrane polyphosphoinositides (PPIs) are lipid-signaling molecules that undergo metabolic turnover and influence a diverse range of cellular functions. PPIs regulate the activity and/or spatial localization of a number of actin-binding proteins (ABPs) through direct interactions; however, it is much less clear whether ABPs could also be an integral part in regulating PPI signaling. In this study, we show that ABP profilin1 (Pfn1) is an important molecular determinant of the cellular content of PI(4,5)P2 (the most abundant PPI in cells). In growth factor (EGF) stimulation setting, Pfn1 depletion does not impact PI(4,5)P2 hydrolysis but enhances plasma membrane (PM) enrichment of PPIs that are produced downstream of activated PI3-kinase, including PI(3,4,5)P3 and PI(3,4)P2, the latter consistent with increased PM recruitment of SH2-containing inositol 5' phosphatase (SHIP2) (a key enzyme for PI(3,4)P2 biosynthesis). Although Pfn1 binds to PPIs in vitro, our data suggest that Pfn1's affinity to PPIs and PM presence in actual cells, if at all, is negligible, suggesting that Pfn1 is unlikely to directly compete with SHIP2 for binding to PM PPIs. Additionally, we provide evidence for Pfn1's interaction with SHIP2 in cells and modulation of this interaction upon EGF stimulation, raising an alternative possibility of Pfn1 binding as a potential restrictive mechanism for PM recruitment of SHIP2. In conclusion, our findings challenge the dogma of Pfn1's binding to PM by PPI interaction, uncover a previously unrecognized role of Pfn1 in PI(4,5)P2 homeostasis and provide a new mechanistic avenue of how an ABP could potentially impact PI3K signaling byproducts in cells through lipid phosphatase control.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides, a small group of lipids found in all cellular membranes, have recently garnered heightened attention due to their crucial roles in diverse biological processes and different diseases. Among these, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2), the most abundant bis-phosphorylated phosphoinositide within the signaling system, stands notably connected to breast cancer. Not only does it serve as a key activator of the frequently altered phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway in breast cancer, but also its conversion to phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3) is an important direction for breast cancer research. The generation and degradation of phosphoinositides intricately involve phosphoinositide kinases. PI(4,5)P2 generation emanates from the phosphorylation of PI4P or PI5P by two lipid kinase families: Type I phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinases (PIP5Ks) and Type II phosphatidylinositol-5-phosphate 4-kinases (PIP4Ks). In this comprehensive review, we focus on these two lipid kinases and delineate their compositions and respective cellular localization. Moreover, we shed light on the expression patterns and functions of distinct isoforms of these kinases in breast cancer. For a deeper understanding of their functional dynamics, we expound upon various mechanisms governing the regulation of PIP5Ks and PIP4Ks activities. A summary of effective and specific small molecule inhibitors designed for PIP5Ks or PIP4Ks are also provided. These growing evidences support PIP5Ks and PIP4Ks as promising drug targets for breast cancer.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PIs) are membrane phospholipids produced through the local activity of PI kinases and phosphatases that selectively add or remove phosphate groups from the inositol head group. PIs control membrane composition and play key roles in many cellular processes including actin dynamics, endosomal trafficking, autophagy, and nuclear functions. Mutations in phosphatidylinositol 4,5 bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] phosphatases cause a broad spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders such as Lowe and Joubert syndromes and congenital muscular dystrophy with cataracts and intellectual disability, which are thus associated with increased levels of PI(4,5)P2. Here, we describe a neurodevelopmental disorder associated with an increase in the production of PI(4,5)P2 and with PI-signaling dysfunction. We identified three de novo heterozygous missense variants in PIP5K1C, which encodes an isoform of the phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5KIγ), in nine unrelated children exhibiting intellectual disability, developmental delay, acquired microcephaly, seizures, visual abnormalities, and dysmorphic features. We provide evidence that the PIP5K1C variants result in an increase of the endosomal PI(4,5)P2 pool, giving rise to ectopic recruitment of filamentous actin at early endosomes (EEs) that in turn causes dysfunction in EE trafficking. In addition, we generated an in vivo zebrafish model that recapitulates the disorder we describe with developmental defects affecting the forebrain, including the eyes, as well as craniofacial abnormalities, further demonstrating the pathogenic effect of the PIP5K1C variants.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides are membrane-localized phospholipids that regulate a plethora of essential cellular processes. These lipid signaling molecules are critical for cell homeostasis and therefore their levels are strictly regulated by the coordinated action of several families of lipid kinases and phosphatases. In this review, we provide a focused perspective on the phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinase (PIPK) family and the three subfamilies that compose it: Type I PIPKs or phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinases (PI4P5Ks), Type II PIPKs or phosphatidylinositol-5-phosphate 4-kinases (PI5P4Ks), and Type III PIPKs or phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate 5-kinases (PIKfyve). Each subfamily is responsible for catalyzing a hydroxyl phosphorylation on specific phosphoinositide species to generate a double phosphorylated lipid, therefore regulating the levels of both substrate and product. Here, we summarize our current knowledge about the functions and regulation of each PIPK subfamily. Further, we highlight the roles of these kinases in various in vivo genetic models and give an overview of their involvement in multiple pathological conditions. The phosphoinositide field has been long focused on targeting PI3K signaling, but growing evidence suggests that it is time to draw attention to the other phosphoinositide kinases. The discovery of the involvement of PIPKs in the pathogenesis of multiple diseases has prompted substantial efforts to turn these enzymes into pharmacological targets. An increasingly refined knowledge of the biology of PIPKs in a variety of in vitro and in vivo models will facilitate the development of effective approaches for therapeutic intervention with the potential to translate into meaningful clinical benefits for patients suffering from cancer, immunological and infectious diseases, and neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K) is a catalytic kinase that performs multiple functions in organisms. Recent studies have shown that PIP5Kα in mammals can directly participate in the TLR-mediated innate immune regulation by controlling the production of PIP2. However, the PIP5K homologous gene has not been identified in Cephalochordata to date. In this study, we firstly identify and characterize a new PIP5K family member (designed as AmphiPIP5K) from Cephalochordata amphioxus (Branchiostoma belcheri tsingtaunese), particularly AmphiPIP5K is orthologous with vertebrate PIP5Kα and paralogous with PIP5Kβ and PIP5Kγ. Secondly, we find that the AmphiPIP5K is involved in amphioxus innate immune response to LPS stimulation. Thirdly, our results demonstrate that miR-2013 can inhibit AmphiPIP5K expression by binding to the CDS and 3' UTR regions of AmphiPIP5K. Collectively, our work not only demonstrates the evolutionary pattern of amphioxus PIP5K, but also reveals that miR-2013 negatively regulate PIP5K expression to involve in amphioxus innate immune response.

Abstract
The role of the actin cytoskeleton during receptor-mediated endocytosis (RME) has been well characterized in yeast for many years. Only more recently has the interplay between the actin cytoskeleton and RME been extensively explored in mammalian cells. These studies have revealed the central roles of BAR proteins in RME, and have demonstrated significant roles of BAR proteins in linking the actin cytoskeleton to this cellular process. The actin cytoskeleton generates and transmits mechanical force to promote the extension of receptor-bound endocytic vesicles into the cell. Many adaptor proteins link and regulate the actin cytoskeleton at the sites of endocytosis. This review will cover key effectors, adaptors and signalling molecules that help to facilitate the invagination of the cell membrane during receptor-mediated endocytosis, including recent insights gained on the roles of BAR proteins. The final part of this review will explore associations of alterations to genes encoding BAR proteins with cancer.

Abstract
IQGAP1 is a multidomain scaffold protein that coordinates the direction and impact of multiple signaling pathways by scaffolding its various binding partners. However, the spatial and temporal resolution of IQGAP1 scaffolding remains unclear. Here, we use fluorescence imaging and correlation methods that allow for real-time live-cell changes in IQGAP1 localization and complex formation during signaling. We find that IQGAP1 and PIPKIγ interact on both the plasma membrane and in cytosol. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulation, which can initiate cytoskeletal changes, drives the movement of the cytosolic pool toward the plasma membrane to promote cytoskeletal changes. We also observe that a significant population of cytosolic IQGAP1-PIPKIγ complexes localize to early endosomes, and in some instances form aggregated clusters which become highly mobile upon EGF stimulation. Our imaging studies show that PIPKIγ and PI3K bind simultaneously to IQGAP1, which may accelerate conversion of PI4P to PI(3,4,5)P3 that is required for cytoskeletal changes. Additionally, we find that IQGAP1 is responsible for PIPKIγ association with two proteins associated with cytoskeletal changes, talin and Cdc42, during EGF stimulation. These results directly show that IQGAP1 provides a physical link between phosphoinositides (through PIPKIγ), focal adhesion formation (through talin), and cytoskeletal reorganization (through Cdc42) upon EGF stimulation. Taken together, our results support the importance of IQGAP1 in regulating cell migration by linking phosphoinositide lipid signaling with cytoskeletal reorganization.

Abstract
AbstractPrimary cilia are sensory organelles on many postmitotic cells. The ciliary membrane is continuous with the plasma membrane but differs in its phospholipid composition with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisposphate (PIP2) being much reduced toward the ciliary tip. In order to determine the functional significance of this difference, we used chemically induced protein dimerization to rapidly synthesize or degrade PIP2 selectively in the ciliary membrane. We observed ciliary fission when PIP2 was synthesized and a growing ciliary length when PIP2 was degraded. Ciliary fission required local actin polymerisation in the cilium, the Rho kinase Rac, aurora kinase A (AurkA) and histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6). This pathway was previously described for ciliary disassembly before cell cycle re-entry. Activating ciliary receptors in the presence of dominant negative dynamin also increased ciliary PIP2, and the associated vesicle budding required ciliary PIP2. Finally, ciliary shortening resulting from constitutively increased ciliary PIP2 was mediated by the same actin – AurkA – HDAC6 pathway. Taken together, changes in ciliary PIP2 are a unifying point for ciliary membrane stability and turnover. Different stimuli increase ciliary PIP2 to secrete vesicles and reduce ciliary length by a common pathway. The paucity of PIP2 in the distal cilium therefore ensures ciliary stability.

[PMID: 34440613 PMCID: PMC8391638 DOI: 10.3390/cells10081844] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2021] [Revised: 07/09/2021] [Accepted: 07/15/2021] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Sepsis and septic shock are associated with acute and sustained impairment in the function of the cardiovascular system, kidneys, lungs, liver, and brain, among others. Despite the significant advances in prevention and treatment, sepsis and septic shock sepsis remain global health problems with elevated mortality rates. Rho proteins can interact with a considerable number of targets, directly affecting cellular contractility, actin filament assembly and growing, cell motility and migration, cytoskeleton rearrangement, and actin polymerization, physiological functions that are intensively impaired during inflammatory conditions, such as the one that occurs in sepsis. In the last few decades, Rho proteins and their downstream pathways have been investigated in sepsis-associated experimental models. The most frequently used experimental design included the exposure to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), in both in vitro and in vivo approaches, but experiments using the cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) model of sepsis have also been performed. The findings described in this review indicate that Rho proteins, mainly RhoA and Rac1, are associated with the development of crucial sepsis-associated dysfunction in different systems and cells, including the endothelium, vessels, and heart. Notably, the data found in the literature suggest that either the inhibition or activation of Rho proteins and associated pathways might be desirable in sepsis and septic shock, accordingly with the cellular system evaluated. This review included the main findings, relevance, and limitations of the current knowledge connecting Rho proteins and sepsis-associated experimental models.

Abstract
Oligodendroglial cells (oligodendrocytes) differentiate to form the myelin that wraps neuronal axons in the central nervous system (CNS). This myelin sheath supports the propagation of saltatory conduction and protects axons from physical stresses. When oligodendrocytes do not normally differentiate to myelinate axons, their key functions as oligodendrocytes in the CNS are severely impaired. The molecular mechanics that control differentiation still remain to be clarified. Arf6 belongs to the small GTPase family and is known to be a positive regulator of oligodendrocyte differentiation. Here, we show that the phospholipase D (PLD) and phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase 1 (PIP5K1) molecules, the major effectors of Arf6, are involved in the regulation of oligodendrocyte differentiation. Knockdown of PLD1 or PIP5K type 1γ (PIP5K1C) by their respective specific siRNAs in mouse oligodendroglial FBD-102b cells inhibited morphological differentiation into structures bearing myelin-like processes; this finding is consistent with the concurrent changes in expression of differentiation and myelin marker proteins. Treatment with VU0155069 or UNC3230, specific inhibitors of PLD and PIP5K1, respectively, blunted morphological differentiation and decreased expression of myelin and differentiation marker proteins. Similar results have been obtained in studies using primary oligodendrocytes. These results suggest that the major Arf6 effector molecules PLD and PIP5K1 are among the molecules involved in the regulation of morphological differentiation in oligodendrocytes prior to myelination.

Abstract
Phagocytosis is a complex process by which phagocytes such as lymphocytes or macrophages engulf and destroy foreign bodies called pathogens in a tissue. The process is triggered by the detection of antibodies that trigger signaling mechanisms that control the changes of the cellular cytoskeleton needed for engulfment of the pathogen. A mathematical model of the entire process would be extremely complicated, because the signaling and cytoskeletal changes produce large mechanical deformations of the cell. Recent experiments have used a confinement technique that leads to a process called frustrated phagocytosis, in which the membrane does not deform, but rather, signaling triggers actin waves that propagate along the boundary of the cell. This eliminates the large-scale deformations and facilitates modeling of the wave dynamics. Herein we develop a model of the actin dynamics observed in frustrated phagocytosis and show that it can replicate the experimental observations. We identify the key components that control the actin waves and make a number of experimentally-testable predictions. In particular, we predict that diffusion coefficients of membrane-bound species must be larger behind the wavefront to replicate the internal structure of the waves. Our model is a first step toward a more complete model of phagocytosis, and provides insights into circular dorsal ruffles as well.

Articular Chondrocyte Phenotype Regulation through the Cytoskeleton and the Signaling Processes That Originate from or Converge on the Cytoskeleton: Towards a Novel Understanding of the Intersection between Actin Dynamics and Chondrogenic Function. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22063279.

Abstract
Numerous studies have assembled a complex picture, in which extracellular stimuli and intracellular signaling pathways modulate the chondrocyte phenotype. Because many diseases are mechanobiology-related, this review asked to what extent phenotype regulators control chondrocyte function through the cytoskeleton and cytoskeleton-regulating signaling processes. Such information would generate leverage for advanced articular cartilage repair. Serial passaging, pro-inflammatory cytokine signaling (TNF-α, IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-8), growth factors (TGF-α), and osteoarthritis not only induce dedifferentiation but also converge on RhoA/ROCK/Rac1/mDia1/mDia2/Cdc42 to promote actin polymerization/crosslinking for stress fiber (SF) formation. SF formation takes center stage in phenotype control, as both SF formation and SOX9 phosphorylation for COL2 expression are ROCK activity-dependent. Explaining how it is molecularly possible that dedifferentiation induces low COL2 expression but high SF formation, this review theorized that, in chondrocyte SOX9, phosphorylation by ROCK might effectively be sidelined in favor of other SF-promoting ROCK substrates, based on a differential ROCK affinity. In turn, actin depolymerization for redifferentiation would “free-up” ROCK to increase COL2 expression. Moreover, the actin cytoskeleton regulates COL1 expression, modulates COL2/aggrecan fragment generation, and mediates a fibrogenic/catabolic expression profile, highlighting that actin dynamics-regulating processes decisively control the chondrocyte phenotype. This suggests modulating the balance between actin polymerization/depolymerization for therapeutically controlling the chondrocyte phenotype.

Abstract
The dynamic re-organization of cellular membranes in response to extracellular stimuli is fundamental to the cell physiology of myeloid and lymphoid cells of the immune system. In addition to maintaining cellular homeostatic functions, remodeling of the plasmalemma and endomembranes endow leukocytes with the potential to relay extracellular signals across their biological membranes to promote rolling adhesion and diapedesis, migration into the tissue parenchyma, and to ingest foreign particles and effete cells. Phosphoinositides, signaling lipids that control the interface of biological membranes with the external environment, are pivotal to this wealth of functions. Here, we highlight the complex metabolic transitions that occur to phosphoinositides during several stages of the leukocyte lifecycle, namely diapedesis, migration, and phagocytosis. We describe classical and recently developed tools that have aided our understanding of these complex lipids. Finally, major downstream effectors of inositides are highlighted including the cytoskeleton, emphasizing the importance of these rare lipids in immunity and disease.

Abstract
Wnt signaling plays a critical role in development across species and is dysregulated in a host of human diseases. A key step in signal transduction is the formation of Wnt receptor signalosomes, during which a large number of components translocate to the membrane, cluster together and amplify downstream signaling. However, the molecular processes that coordinate these events remain poorly defined. Here, we show that Daam2 regulates canonical Wnt signaling via the PIP2-PIP5K axis through its association with Rac1. Clustering of Daam2-mediated Wnt receptor complexes requires both Rac1 and PIP5K, and PIP5K promotes membrane localization of these complexes in a Rac1-dependent manner. Importantly, the localization of Daam2 complexes and Daam2-mediated canonical Wnt signaling is dependent upon actin polymerization. These studies - in chick spinal cord and human and monkey cell lines - highlight novel roles for Rac1 and the actin cytoskeleton in the regulation of canonical Wnt signaling and define Daam2 as a key scaffolding hub that coordinates membrane translocation and signalosome clustering.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides, which are membrane-bound phospholipids, are critical signaling molecules located at the interface between the extracellular matrix, cell membrane, and cytoskeleton. Phosphoinositides are essential regulators of many biological and cellular processes, including but not limited to cell migration, proliferation, survival, and differentiation, as well as cytoskeletal rearrangements and actin dynamics. Over the years, a multitude of studies have uniquely implicated phosphoinositide signaling as being crucial in cardiovascular biology and a dominant force in the development of cardiovascular disease and its progression. Independently, the cellular transduction of mechanical forces or mechanotransduction in cardiovascular cells is widely accepted to be critical to their homeostasis and can drive aberrant cellular phenotypes and resultant cardiovascular disease. Given the versatility and diversity of phosphoinositide signaling in the cardiovascular system and the dominant regulation of cardiovascular cell functions by mechanotransduction, the molecular mechanistic overlap and extent to which these two major signaling modalities converge in cardiovascular cells remain unclear. In this review, we discuss and synthesize recent findings that rightfully connect phosphoinositide signaling to cellular mechanotransduction in the context of cardiovascular biology and disease, and we specifically focus on phosphatidylinositol-4,5-phosphate, phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase, phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-phosphate, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. Throughout the review, we discuss how specific phosphoinositide subspecies have been shown to mediate biomechanically sensitive cytoskeletal remodeling in cardiovascular cells. Additionally, we discuss the direct interaction of phosphoinositides with mechanically sensitive membrane-bound ion channels in response to mechanical stimuli. Furthermore, we explore the role of phosphoinositide subspecies in association with critical downstream effectors of mechanical signaling in cardiovascular biology and disease.

Abstract
Serotonin neurotransmission is largely governed by the regulation of the serotonin transporter (SERT). SERT is modulated in part by cholesterol, but the role of cholesterol and lipid signaling intermediates in regulating SERT are unknown. Serotonergic neurons were treated with statins to decrease cholesterol and lipid signaling intermediates. Contrary to reported decreases in 5-HT uptake after cholesterol depletion, biochemical and imaging methods both showed that statins increased 5-HT uptake in a fluoxetine-dependent manner. Simvastatin lowered the Km without changing Vmax for 5-HT or SERT distribution to the plasma membrane. Cholesterol repletion did not block enhanced 5-HT uptake by simvastatin but the enhanced uptake was blocked by lipid isoprenylation intermediates farnesyl pyrophosphate and geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate. Blockade of geranylgeranylation alone without statins also enhanced 5-HT uptake. Overall, this study revealed a specific neuronal effect of statin drugs and identified lipid signaling through geranylgeranylation within the isoprenylation pathway regulates SERT in a cholesterol-independent manner.

Abstract
Diverse extracellular signals induce plasma membrane translocation of sphingosine kinase-1 (SphK1), thereby enabling inside-out signaling of sphingosine-1-phosphate. We have shown before that Gq-coupled receptors and constitutively active Gαq/11 specifically induced a rapid and long-lasting SphK1 translocation, independently of canonical Gq/phospholipase C (PLC) signaling. Here, we further characterized Gq/11 regulation of SphK1. SphK1 translocation by the M3 receptor in HEK-293 cells was delayed by expression of catalytically inactive G-protein-coupled receptor kinase-2, p63Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor (p63RhoGEF), and catalytically inactive PLCβ3, but accelerated by wild-type PLCβ3 and the PLCδ PH domain. Both wild-type SphK1 and catalytically inactive SphK1-G82D reduced M3 receptor-stimulated inositol phosphate production, suggesting competition at Gαq. Embryonic fibroblasts from Gαq/11 double-deficient mice were used to show that amino acids W263 and T257 of Gαq, which interact directly with PLCβ3 and p63RhoGEF, were important for bradykinin B2 receptor-induced SphK1 translocation. Finally, an AIXXPL motif was identified in vertebrate SphK1 (positions 100–105 in human SphK1a), which resembles the Gαq binding motif, ALXXPI, in PLCβ and p63RhoGEF. After M3 receptor stimulation, SphK1-A100E-I101E and SphK1-P104A-L105A translocated in only 25% and 56% of cells, respectively, and translocation efficiency was significantly reduced. The data suggest that both the AIXXPL motif and currently unknown consequences of PLCβ/PLCδ(PH) expression are important for regulation of SphK1 by Gq/11.

PIP4Ks Suppress Insulin Signaling through a Catalytic-Independent Mechanism. Cell Rep 2020; 27:1991-2001.e5.

Abstract
Insulin stimulates the conversion of phosphatidylino-sitol-4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) to phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3), which mediates downstream cellular responses. PI(4,5)P2 is produced by phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinases (PIP5Ks) and by phosphatidylinositol-5-phos-phate 4-kinases (PIP4Ks). Here, we show that the loss of PIP4Ks (PIP4K2A, PIP4K2B, and PIP4K2C) in vitro results in a paradoxical increase in PI(4,5)P2 and a concomitant increase in insulin-stimulated production of PI(3,4,5)P3. The reintroduction of either wild-type or kinase-dead mutants of the PIP4Ks restored cellular PI(4,5)P2 levels and insulin stimulation of the PI3K pathway, suggesting a catalytic-independent role of PIP4Ks in regulating PI(4,5)P2 levels. These effects are explained by an increase in PIP5K activity upon the deletion of PIP4Ks, which normally suppresses PIP5K activity through a direct binding interaction mediated by the N-terminal motif VMLϕFPDD of PIP4K. Our work uncovers an allosteric function of PIP4Ks in suppressing PIP5K-mediated PI(4,5)P2 synthesis and insulin-dependent conversion to PI(3,4,5)P3 and suggests that the pharmacological depletion of PIP4K enzymes could represent a strategy for enhancing insulin signaling. PI(4,5)P2 is produced by both phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinases (PIP5Ks) and by phosphatidylinositol-5-phosphate 4-kinases (PIP4Ks). Wang et al. report an allosteric function of a conserved N-terminal motif of PIP4Ks in suppressing PIP5K-mediated PI(4,5)P2 synthesis and insulin-dependent conversion to PI(3,4,5) P3. This non-catalytic role has implications for the development of PIP4K targeted therapies.

Enforced expression of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase homolog alters PtdIns(4,5)P 2 distribution and the localization of small G-proteins. Sci Rep 2019; 9:14789. [PMID: 31616009 PMCID: PMC6794296 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-51272-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2018] [Accepted: 09/20/2019] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
The generation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) by phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinases (PIP5Ks) is essential for many functions including control of the cytoskeleton, signal transduction, and endocytosis. Due to its presence in the plasma membrane and anionic charge, PtdIns(4,5)P2, together with phosphatidylserine, provide the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane with a negative surface charge. This negative charge helps to define the identity of the plasma membrane, as it serves to recruit or regulate a multitude of peripheral and membrane proteins that contain polybasic domains or patches. Here, we determine that the phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase homolog (PIPKH) alters the subcellular distribution of PtdIns(4,5)P2 by re-localizing the three PIP5Ks to endomembranes. We find a redistribution of the PIP5K family members to endomembrane structures upon PIPKH overexpression that is accompanied by accumulation of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3). PIP5Ks are targeted to membranes in part due to electrostatic interactions; however, the interaction between PIPKH and PIP5K is maintained following hydrolysis of PtdIns(4,5)P2. Expression of PIPKH did not impair bulk endocytosis as monitored by FM4-64 uptake but did result in clustering of FM4-64 positive endosomes. Finally, we demonstrate that accumulation of polyphosphoinositides increases the negative surface charge of endosomes and in turn, leads to relocalization of surface charge probes as well as the polycationic proteins K-Ras and Rac1.

Anillin Promotes Cell Contractility by Cyclic Resetting of RhoA Residence Kinetics. Dev Cell 2019; 49:894-906.e12.

Abstract
RhoA stimulates cell contractility by recruiting downstream effectors to the cortical plasma membrane. We now show that direct binding by anillin is required for effective signaling: this antagonizes the otherwise labile membrane association of GTP-RhoA to promote effector recruitment. However, since its binding to RhoA blocks access by other effectors, we demonstrate that anillin must also concentrate membrane phosphoinositide-4,5-P2 (PIP2) to promote signaling. We propose and test a sequential pathway where GTP-RhoA first binds to anillin and then is retained at the membrane by PIP2 after it disengages from anillin. Importantly, re-binding of membrane GTP-RhoA to anillin, regulated by the cortical density of anillin, creates cycles through this pathway. These cycles repeatedly reset the dissociation kinetics of GTP-RhoA, substantially increasing its dwell time to recruit effectors. Thus, anillin regulates RhoA signaling by a paradigm of kinetic scaffolding that may apply to other signals whose efficacy depends on their cortical dwell times.

Dopamine Triggers the Maturation of Striatal Spiny Projection Neuron Excitability during a Critical Period. Neuron 2018; 99:540-554.e4.

Abstract
Neural circuits are formed and refined during childhood, including via critical changes in neuronal excitability. Here, we investigated the ontogeny of striatal intrinsic excitability. We found that dopamine neurotransmission increases from the first to the third postnatal week in mice and precedes the reduction in spiny projection neuron (SPN) intrinsic excitability during the fourth postnatal week. In mice developmentally deficient for striatal dopamine, direct pathway D1-SPNs failed to undergo maturation of excitability past P18 and maintained hyperexcitability into adulthood. We found that the absence of D1-SPN maturation was due to altered phosphatidylinositol 4,5-biphosphate dynamics and a consequent lack of normal ontogenetic increases in Kir2 currents. Dopamine replacement corrected these deficits in SPN excitability when provided from birth or during a specific period of juvenile development (P18-P28), but not during adulthood. These results identify a sensitive period of dopamine-dependent striatal maturation, with implications for the pathophysiology and treatment of neurodevelopmental disorders.

Abstract
The endocytic compartment is not only the functional continuity of the plasma membrane but consists of a diverse collection of intracellular heterogeneous complex structures that transport, amplify, sustain, and/or sort signaling molecules. Over the years, it has become evident that early, late, and recycling endosomes represent an interconnected vesicular-tubular network able to form signaling platforms that dynamically and efficiently translate extracellular signals into biological outcome. Cell activation, differentiation, migration, death, and survival are some of the endpoints of endosomal signaling. Hence, to understand the role of the endosomal system in signal transduction in space and time, it is therefore necessary to dissect and identify the plethora of decoders that are operational in the different steps along the endocytic pathway. In this chapter, we focus on the regulation of spatiotemporal signaling in cells, considering endosomes as central platforms, in which several small GTPases proteins of the Ras superfamily, in particular Ras and Rac1, actively participate to control cellular processes like proliferation and cell mobility.

Abstract
Phagocytosis, the regulated uptake of large particles (>0.5 μm in diameter), is essential for tissue homeostasis and is also an early, critical component of the innate immune response. Phagocytosis can be conceptually divided into three stages: phagosome, formation, maturation, and resolution. Each of these involves multiple reactions that require exquisite spatial and temporal orchestration. The molecular events underlying these stages are being unraveled and the current state of knowledge is briefly summarized in this article.

Abstract
The heterotrimeric G protein Gq positively regulates neuronal activity and synaptic transmission. Previously, the Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor Trio was identified as a direct effector of Gq that acts in parallel to the canonical Gq effector phospholipase C. Here, we examine how Trio and Rho act to stimulate neuronal activity downstream of Gq in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans Through two forward genetic screens, we identify the cation channels NCA-1 and NCA-2, orthologs of mammalian NALCN, as downstream targets of the Gq-Rho pathway. By performing genetic epistasis analysis using dominant activating mutations and recessive loss-of-function mutations in the members of this pathway, we show that NCA-1 and NCA-2 act downstream of Gq in a linear pathway. Through cell-specific rescue experiments, we show that function of these channels in head acetylcholine neurons is sufficient for normal locomotion in C. elegans Our results suggest that NCA-1 and NCA-2 are physiologically relevant targets of neuronal Gq-Rho signaling in C. elegans.

Abstract
Accessory cholera enterotoxin (Ace) of Vibrio cholerae has been shown to contribute to diarrhea. However, the signaling mechanism and specific type of Cl- channel activated by Ace are still unknown. We have shown here that the recombinant Ace protein induced ICl of apical plasma membrane, which was inhibited by classical CaCC blockers. Surprisingly, an Ace-elicited rise of current was neither affected by ANO1 (TMEM16A)-specific inhibitor T16A(inh)-AO1(TAO1) nor by the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) blocker, CFTR inh-172. Ace stimulated whole-cell current in Caco-2 cells. However, the apical ICl was attenuated by knockdown of ANO6 (TMEM16F). This impaired phenotype was restored by re-expression of ANO6 in Caco-2 cells. Whole-cell patch clamp recordings of ANO currents in HEK293 cells transiently expressing mouse ANO1-mCherry or ANO6-GFP confirmed that Ace induced Cl- secretion. Application of Ace produced ANO6 but not the ANO1 currents. Ace was not able to induce a [Ca2+]i rise in Caco-2 cells, but cellular abundance of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) increased. Identification of the PIP2-binding motif at the N-terminal sequence among human and mouse ANO6 variants along with binding of PIP2 directly to ANO6 in HEK293 cells indicate likely PIP2 regulation of ANO6. The biophysical and pharmacological properties of Ace stimulated Cl- current along with intestinal fluid accumulation, and binding of PIP2 to the proximal KR motif of channel proteins, whose mutagenesis correlates with altered binding of PIP2, is comparable with ANO6 stimulation. We conclude that ANO6 is predominantly expressed in intestinal epithelia, where it contributes secretory diarrhea by Ace stimulation in a calcium-independent mechanism of RhoA-ROCK-PIP2 signaling.

Abstract
Rickettsiae are obligate intracellular pathogens that induce their uptake into nonphagocytic cells; however, the events instigating this process are incompletely understood. Importantly, diverse Rickettsia species are predicted to utilize divergent mechanisms to colonize host cells, as nearly all adhesins and effectors involved in host cell entry are differentially encoded in diverse Rickettsia species. One particular effector, RalF, a Sec7 domain-containing protein that functions as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor of ADP-ribosylation factors (Arfs), is critical for Rickettsia typhi (typhus group rickettsiae) entry but pseudogenized or absent from spotted fever group rickettsiae. Secreted early during R. typhi infection, RalF localizes to the host plasma membrane and interacts with host ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (Arf6). Herein, we demonstrate that RalF activates Arf6, a process reliant on a conserved Glu within the RalF Sec7 domain. Furthermore, Arf6 is activated early during infection, with GTP-bound Arf6 localized to the R. typhi entry foci. The regulation of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K), which generates PI(4,5)P2, by activated Arf6 is instrumental for bacterial entry, corresponding to the requirement of PI(4,5)P2 for R. typhi entry. PI(3,4,5)P3 is then synthesized at the entry foci, followed by the accumulation of PI(3)P on the short-lived vacuole. Inhibition of phosphoinositide 3-kinases, responsible for the synthesis of PI(3,4,5)P3 and PI(3)P, negatively affects R. typhi infection. Collectively, these results identify RalF as the first bacterial effector to directly activate Arf6, a process that initiates alterations in phosphoinositol metabolism critical for a lineage-specific Rickettsia entry mechanism.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] is a multi-functional lipid that regulates several essential subcellular processes in eukaryotic cells. In addition to its well-established function as a substrate for receptor-activated signalling at the plasma membrane (PM), it is now recognized that distinct PI(4,5)P2 pools are present at other organelle membranes. However, a long-standing question that remains unresolved is the mechanism by which a single lipid species, with an invariant functional head group, delivers numerous functions without loss of fidelity. In the present review, we summarize studies that have examined the molecular processes that shape the repertoire of PI(4,5)P2 pools in diverse eukaryotes. Collectively, these studies indicate a conserved role for lipid kinase isoforms in generating functionally distinct pools of PI(4,5)P2 in diverse metazoan species. The sophistication underlying the regulation of multiple functions by PI(4,5)P2 is also shaped by mechanisms that regulate its availability to enzymes involved in its metabolism as well as molecular processes that control its diffusion at nanoscales in the PM. Collectively, these mechanisms ensure the specificity of PI(4,5)P2 mediated signalling at eukaryotic membranes.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) represents about 1 % of plasma membrane phospholipids and behaves as a pleiotropic regulator of a striking number of fundamental cellular processes. In recent years, an increasing body of literature has highlighted an essential role of PIP2 in multiple aspects of leukocyte biology. In this emerging picture, PIP2 is envisaged as a signalling intermediate itself and as a membrane-bound regulator and a scaffold of proteins with specific PIP2 binding domains. Indeed PIP2 plays a key role in several functions. These include directional migration in neutrophils, integrin-dependent adhesion in T lymphocytes, phagocytosis in macrophages, lysosomes secretion and trafficking at immune synapse in cytolytic effectors and secretory cells, calcium signals and gene transcription in B lymphocytes, natural killer cells and mast cells. The coordination of these different aspects relies on the spatio-temporal organisation of distinct PIP2 pools, generated by the main PIP2 generating enzyme, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K). Three different isoforms of PIP5K, named α, β and γ, and different splice variants have been described in leukocyte populations. The isoform-specific coupling of specific isoforms of PIP5K to different families of activating receptors, including integrins, Fc receptors, toll-like receptors and chemokine receptors, is starting to be reported. Furthermore, PIP2 is turned over by multiple metabolising enzymes including phospholipase C (PLC) γ and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) which, along with Rho family small G proteins, is widely involved in strategic functions within the immune system. The interplay between PIP2, lipid-modifying enzymes and small G protein-regulated signals is also discussed.

Abstract
Type I phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinase (PIP5K1) phosphorylates the head group of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns4P) to generate PtdIns4,5P2, which plays important roles in a wide range of cellular functions including Wnt signalling. However, the lack of its structural information has hindered the understanding of its regulation. Here we report the crystal structure of the catalytic domain of zebrafish PIP5K1A at 3.3 Å resolution. This molecule forms a side-to-side dimer. Mutagenesis study of PIP5K1A reveals two adjacent interfaces for the dimerization and interaction with the DIX domain of the Wnt signalling molecule dishevelled. Although these interfaces are located distally to the catalytic/substrate-binding site, binding to these interfaces either through dimerization or the interaction with DIX stimulates PIP5K1 catalytic activity. DIX binding additionally enhances PIP5K1 substrate binding. Thus, this study elucidates regulatory mechanisms for this lipid kinase and provides a paradigm for the understanding of PIP5K1 regulation by their interacting molecules. Type I phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinase is an important component of many cellular pathways, including Wnt signalling. Here the authors report the crystal structure of the zebrafish protein along with in vitro assays that help to elucidate the regulation and function of this kinase.

Abstract
The type I phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K) family members and their lipid product, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) are important regulators of actin cytoskeleton. PIP5Kγ 90kDa (PIP5Kγ90), an isoform of PIP5K, localizes to focal adhesions (FAs) and is activated via its interaction with the cytoskeletal protein, talin. Currently, regulatory signaling pathways of talin-PIP5Kγ90 interaction related to FA dynamics and cell motility are not well understood. Considering the presence of Akt consensus motifs in PIP5Kγ90, we examined a potential link of Akt activation to talin-PIP5Kγ90 interaction. We found that Akt phosphorylated PIP5Kγ90 specifically at serine 555 (S555) in vitro and in epidermal growth factor (EGF)-treated cells phosphoinositide 3-kinase-dependently. EGF treatment suppressed talin-PIP5Kγ90 interaction and PIP2 levels. Similarly, a phosphomimetic mutant (S555D), but not non-phosphorylatable mutant (S555A), of PIP5Kγ90 had reduced talin binding affinity, lowered PIP2 levels, and was dislocated from FAs. The S555D mutant also caused decreases in actin stress fibers and vinculin-positive FAs. Moreover, assembly and disassembly of FAs were enhanced by S555D expression and EGF-induced cell migration was relatively low in S555A-expressing cells compared to wild-type-expressing cells. PIP5Kγ87, a PIP5Kγ splice variant lacking the talin binding motif, was phosphorylated by Akt, which, however, hardly affected PIP2 levels. Taken together, our results suggested that Akt-mediated PIP5Kγ90 S555 phosphorylation is a novel regulatory point for talin binding to control PIP2 level at the FAs, thereby modulating FA dynamics and cell motility.

[PMID: 26134656 PMCID: PMC6605143 DOI: 10.1523/jneurosci.4655-14.2015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2014] [Revised: 05/19/2015] [Accepted: 05/29/2015] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Persistent firing of entorhinal cortex (EC) pyramidal neurons is a key component of working and spatial memory. We report here that a pro-brain-derived neurotrophic factor (proBDNF)-dependent p75NTR signaling pathway plays a major role in excitability and persistent activity of pyramidal neurons in layer V of the EC. Using electrophysiological recordings, we show that proBDNF suppresses persistent firing in entorhinal slices from wild-type mice but not from p75NTR-null mice. Conversely, function-blocking proBDNF antibodies enhance excitability of pyramidal neurons and facilitate their persistent firing, and acute exposure to function-blocking p75NTR antibodies results in enhanced firing activity of pyramidal neurons. Genetic deletion of p75NTR specifically in neurons or during adulthood also induces enhanced excitability and persistent activity, indicating that the proBDNF-p75NTR signaling cascade functions within adult neurons to inhibit pyramidal activity. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2)-sensitive transient receptor potential canonical channels play a critical role in mediating persistent firing in the EC and we hypothesized that proBDNF-dependent p75NTR activation regulates PIP2 levels. Accordingly, proBDNF decreases cholinergic calcium responses in cortical neurons and affects carbachol-induced depletion of PIP2. Further, we show that the modulation of persistent firing by proBDNF relies on a p75NTR-Rac1-PI4K pathway. The hypothesis that proBDNF and p75NTR maintain network homeostasis in the adult CNS was tested in vivo and we report that p75NTR-null mice show improvements in working memory but also display an increased propensity for severe seizures. We propose that the proBDNF-p75NTR axis controls pyramidal neuron excitability and persistent activity to balance EC performance with the risk of runaway activity. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Persistent firing of entorhinal cortex (EC) pyramidal neurons is required for working memory. We report here that pro-brain-derived neurotrophic factor (proBDNF) activates p75NTR to induce a Rac1-dependent and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-dependent signaling cascade that suppresses persistent activity. Conversely, using loss-of-function approaches, we find that endogenous proBDNF or p75NTR activation strongly decreases pyramidal neuron excitability and persistent firing, suggesting that a physiological role of this proBDNF-p75NTR cascade may be to regulate working memory in vivo. Consistent with this, mice rendered null for p75NTR during adulthood show improvements in working memory but also display an increased propensity for severe seizures. We propose that by attenuating EC network performance, the proBDNF-p75NTR signaling cascade reduces the probability of epileptogenesis.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI4,5P₂) is an essential lipid messenger with roles in all eukaryotes and most aspects of human physiology. By controlling the targeting and activity of its effectors, PI4,5P₂modulates processes, such as cell migration, vesicular trafficking, cellular morphogenesis, signaling and gene expression. In cells, PI4,5P₂has a much higher concentration than other phosphoinositide species and its total content is largely unchanged in response to extracellular stimuli. The discovery of a vast array of PI4,5P₂ binding proteins is consistent with data showing that the majority of cellular PI4,5P₂is sequestered. This supports a mechanism where PI4,5P₂functions as a localized and highly specific messenger. Further support of this mechanism comes from the de novo synthesis of PI4,5P₂which is often linked with PIP kinase interaction with PI4,5P₂effectors and is a mechanism to define specificity of PI4,5P₂signaling. The association of PI4,5P₂-generating enzymes with PI4,5P₂effectors regulate effector function both temporally and spatially in cells. In this review, the PI4,5P₂effectors whose functions are tightly regulated by associations with PI4,5P₂-generating enzymes will be discussed. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Phosphoinositides.

Abstract
UNLABELLED During HIV-1 assembly, the Gag viral proteins are targeted and assemble at the inner leaflet of the cell plasma membrane. This process could modulate the cortical actin cytoskeleton, located underneath the plasma membrane, since actin dynamics are able to promote localized membrane reorganization. In addition, activated small Rho GTPases are known for regulating actin dynamics and membrane remodeling. Therefore, the modulation of such Rho GTPase activity and of F-actin by the Gag protein during virus particle formation was considered. Here, we studied the implication of the main Rac1, Cdc42, and RhoA small GTPases, and some of their effectors, in this process. The effect of small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated Rho GTPases and silencing of their effectors on Gag localization, Gag membrane attachment, and virus-like particle production was analyzed by immunofluorescence coupled to confocal microscopy, membrane flotation assays, and immunoblot assays, respectively. In parallel, the effect of Gag expression on the Rac1 activation level was monitored by G-LISA, and the intracellular F-actin content in T cells was monitored by flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy. Our results revealed the involvement of activated Rac1 and of the IRSp53-Wave2-Arp2/3 signaling pathway in HIV-1 Gag membrane localization and particle release in T cells as well as a role for actin branching and polymerization, and this was solely dependent on the Gag viral protein. In conclusion, our results highlight a new role for the Rac1-IRSp53-Wave2-Arp2/3 signaling pathway in the late steps of HIV-1 replication in CD4 T lymphocytes. IMPORTANCE During HIV-1 assembly, the Gag proteins are targeted and assembled at the inner leaflet of the host cell plasma membrane. Gag interacts with specific membrane phospholipids that can also modulate the regulation of cortical actin cytoskeleton dynamics. Actin dynamics can promote localized membrane reorganization and thus can be involved in facilitating Gag assembly and particle formation. Activated small Rho GTPases and effectors are regulators of actin dynamics and membrane remodeling. We thus studied the effects of the Rac1, Cdc42, and RhoA GTPases and their specific effectors on HIV-1 Gag membrane localization and viral particle release in T cells. Our results show that activated Rac1 and the IRSp53-Wave2-Arp2/3 signaling pathway are involved in Gag plasma membrane localization and viral particle production. This work uncovers a role for cortical actin through the activation of Rac1 and the IRSp53/Wave2 signaling pathway in HIV-1 particle formation in CD4 T lymphocytes.

Abstract
The human ether-a-go-go-related gene (HERG) potassium current (IHERG) has been shown to decrease in amplitude following stimulation with Gq protein-coupled receptors (GqRs), such as α1-adrenergic and M1-muscarinic receptors (α1R and M1R, respectively), at least partly via the reduction of membrane phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2). The present study was designed to investigate the modulation of HERG channels by PI(4,5)P2 and phosphatidylinositol4-phosphate 5-kinase (PI(4)P5-K), a synthetic enzyme of PI(4,5)P2. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings were used to examine the activity of HERG channels expressed heterologously in Chinese Hamster Ovary cells. The stimulation of α1R with phenylephrine or M1R with acetylcholine decreased the amplitude of IHERG accompanied by a significant acceleration of deactivation kinetics and the effects on IHERG were significantly attenuated in cells expressing PI(4)P5-K. The density of IHERG in cells expressing GqRs alone was significantly increased by the coexpression of PI(4)P5-K without significant differences in the voltage dependence of activation and deactivation kinetics. The kinase-deficient substitution mutant, PI(4)P5-K-K138A did not have these counteracting effects on the change in IHERG by M1R stimulation. These results suggest that the current density of IHERG is closely dependent on the membrane PI(4,5)P2 level, which is regulated by PI(4)P5-K and GqRs and that replenishing PI(4,5)P2 by PI(4)P5-K recovers IHERG.

Attenuated platelet aggregation in patients with septic shock is independent from the activity state of myosin light chain phosphorylation or a reduction in Rho kinase-dependent inhibition of myosin light chain phosphatase.

Abstract
Background Impaired coagulation contributes to the morbidity and mortality associated with septic shock. Whether abnormal platelet contraction adds to the bleeding tendency is unknown. Platelets contract when Ca2+-dependent myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) phosphorylates Ser19 of myosin light chain (MLC20), promoting actin-myosin cross-bridge cycling. Contraction is opposed when myosin light chain phosphatase (MLCP) dephosphorylates MLC20. It is thought that Rho kinase (ROK) inhibits MLCP by phosphorylating Thr855 of the regulatory subunit MYPT, favouring platelet contraction. This study tested the hypotheses that in septic shock, (i) platelet function is inversely correlated with illness severity and (ii) ROK-dependent MLCP inhibition and myosin light chain phosphorylation are reduced. Methods Blood was sampled from non-septic shock patients and patients in the first 24 h of septic shock. Platelet function was assessed using whole blood impedance aggregation induced by 1) ADP (1.6 and 6.5 μM), 2) thrombin receptor-activating protein (TRAP; 32 μM), 3) arachidonic acid (500 μM) and 4) collagen (3.2 μg/ml). Arachidonic acid-induced aggregation was measured in the presence of the ROK inhibitor Y27632. Illness severity was evaluated using sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) II scores. Western blot analysis of [Ser19]MLC20 and [Thr855]MYPT phosphorylation quantified activation and inhibition of platelet MLC20 and MLCP, respectively. Data were analysed using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient, Student's t-test and Mann-Whitney test; p < 0.05 was considered significant. Results Agonist-induced aggregation was attenuated in septic shock patients (n = 22 to 34; p < 0.05). Aggregation correlated inversely with SOFA and APACHE II scores (n = 34; p < 0.05). Thr855 phosphorylation of MYPT from unstimulated platelets was not decreased in patients with septic shock (n = 22 to 24). Both septic shock and ROK inhibition attenuated arachidonic acid-induced platelet aggregation independent of changes in [Ser19]MLC20 and [Thr855]MYPT phosphorylation (n = 14). Conclusions Impairment of whole blood aggregation in patients within the first 24 h of septic shock was correlated with SOFA and APACHE II scores. Attenuated aggregation was independent of molecular evidence of diminished platelet contraction or reduced ROK inhibition of MLCP. Efforts to restore platelet function in septic shock should therefore focus on platelet adhesion and degranulation.

Abstract
Platelet cytoskeletal reorganization is essential for platelet adhesion and thrombus formation in hemostasis and thrombosis. The Rho GTPases RhoA, Rac1 and Cdc42 are the main players in cytoskeletal dynamics of platelets responsible for the formation of filopodia and lamellipodia to strongly increase the platelet surface upon activation. They are involved in platelet activation and aggregate formation including platelet secretion, integrin activation and arterial thrombus formation. The activity of Rho GTPases is tightly controlled by different proteins such as GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs). GAPs stimulate GTP hydrolysis to terminate Rho signaling. The role and impact of GAPs in platelets is not well-defined and many of the RhoGAPs identified are not known to be present in platelets or to have any function in platelets. The recently identified RhoGAPs Oligophrenin1 (OPHN1) and Nadrin regulate the activity of RhoA, Rac1 and Cdc42 and subsequent platelet cytoskeletal reorganization, platelet activation and thrombus formation. In the last years, the analysis of genetically modified mice helped to gain the understanding of Rho GTPases and their regulators in cytoskeletal rearrangements and other Rho mediated cellular processes in platelets.

Abstract
The development of a synthetic transcription factor that responds to intracellular calcium signals enables analyzing cellular events at the single-cell level or "rewiring" the intracellular information networks. In this study, we developed the calcium-dependent transcription factor (CaTF), which was cleaved by calpain and then translocated to the nuclei where it induced reporter expression. Our results demonstrated that CaTF-mediated reporter expression was stable and responded to the intracellular calcium level and calpain activity. In addition, CaTF detected the sustained calcium increase that was induced by physiological stimulation with epidermal growth factor (EGF). These results suggest that CaTF could be a useful tool to analyze intracellular calcium signals and be an interface between an endogenous signal network and synthetic gene network.

Abstract
Professional phagocytes provide immunoprotection and aid in the maintenance of tissue homeostasis. They perform these tasks by recognizing, engulfing and eliminating pathogens and endogenous cell debris. Here, we examine the paramount role played by phosphoinositides in phagocytosis and macropinocytosis, two major endocytic routes that mediate the uptake of particulate and fluid matter, respectively. We analyze accumulating literature describing the molecular mechanisms whereby phosphoinositides translate environmental cues into the complex, sophisticated responses that underlie the phagocytic and macropinocytic responses. In addition, we exemplify virulence strategies involving modulation of host cell phosphoinositide signaling that are employed by bacteria to undermine immunity. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Phosphoinositides.

Abstract
Rho GTPases are a globular, monomeric group of small signaling G-protein molecules. Rho-associated protein kinase/Rho-kinase (ROCK) is a downstream effector protein of the Rho GTPase. Rho-kinases are the potential therapeutic targets in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Here, we have primarily discussed the intriguing roles of ROCK in cardiovascular health in relation to nitric oxide signaling. Further, we highlighted the biphasic effects of Y-27632, a ROCK inhibitor under shear stress, which acts as an agonist of nitric oxide production in endothelial cells. The biphasic effects of this inhibitor raised the question of safety of the drug usage in treating cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Previously we have shown that expression of the deubiquitinating enzyme USP17 is required for cell proliferation and motility. More recently we reported that USP17 deubiquitinates RCE1 isoform 2 and thus regulates the processing of 'CaaX' motif proteins. Here we now show that USP17 expression is induced by epidermal growth factor and that USP17 expression is required for clathrin mediated endocytosis of epidermal growth factor receptor. In addition, we show that USP17 is required for the endocytosis of transferrin, an archetypal substrate for clathrin mediated endocytosis, and that USP17 depletion impedes plasma membrane recruitment of the machinery required for clathrin mediated endocytosis. Thus, our data reveal that USP17 is necessary for epidermal growth factor receptor and transferrin endocytosis via clathrin coated pits, indicate this is mediated via the regulation of the recruitment of the components of the endocytosis machinery and suggest USP17 may play a general role in receptor endocytosis.

Abstract
Once adherens junctions (AJs) are formed between polarized epithelial cells they must be maintained because AJs are constantly remodeled in dynamic epithelia. AJ maintenance involves endocytosis and subsequent recycling of E-cadherin to a precise location along the basolateral membrane. In the Drosophila pupal eye epithelium, Rho1 GTPase regulates AJ remodeling through Drosophila E-cadherin (DE-cadherin) endocytosis by limiting Cdc42/Par6/aPKC complex activity. We demonstrate that Rho1 also influences AJ remodeling by regulating the formation of DE-cadherin-containing, Rab11-positive recycling endosomes in Drosophila postmitotic pupal eye epithelia. This effect of Rho1 is mediated through Rok-dependent, but not MLCK-dependent, stimulation of myosin II activity yet independent of its effects upon actin remodeling. Both Rho1 and pMLC localize on endosomal vesicles, suggesting that Rho1 might regulate the formation of recycling endosomes through localized myosin II activation. This work identifies spatially distinct functions for Rho1 in the regulation of DE-cadherin-containing vesicular trafficking during AJ remodeling in live epithelia.

Abstract
Antigen stimulation of mast cells via FcεRI, the high-affinity receptor for IgE, triggers a signaling cascade that requires Ca2+ mobilization for exocytosis of secretory granules during the allergic response. To characterize the role of Rho GTPases in FcεRI signaling, we utilized a mutant RBL cell line, B6A4C1, that is deficient in antigen-stimulated Cdc42 activation important for these processes. Recently the importance of stimulated intracellular oscillations has emerged, and we find that B6A4C1 cells exhibit severely attenuated Ca2+ oscillations in response to antigen, which are restored to wild-type RBL-2H3 levels by expression of constitutively active Cdc42 G12V or by a GEF for Cdc42, DOCK7, but not when the C-terminal di-arginine motif of active Cdc42 is mutated to di-glutamine. We found that antigen-stimulated FcεRI endocytosis, which occurs independently of Ca2+ mobilization, is also defective in B6A4C1 cells, and Cdc42 G12V reconstitutes this response as well. Thus, activation of Cdc42 occurs prior to and is critical for antigen-stimulated pathways leading separately to both Ca2+ mobilization and receptor endocytosis. Accounting for these downstream functional consequences, we show that Cdc42 G12V reconstitutes antigen-stimulated oscillations of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) at the plasma membrane in mutant B6A4C1 cells, pointing to Cdc42 participation in the regulation of stimulated PIP2 synthesis.

Abstract
Various viruses enter host cells via endocytosis, but the molecular mechanisms underlying the specific internalization pathways remain unclear. Here we show that influenza A viruses (IAVs) enter cells via redundant pathways of clathrin-mediated and clathrin-independent endocytosis, with intracellular Ca(2+) having a central role in regulation of both pathways by activating a signalling axis comprising RhoA, Rho-kinase, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K) and phospholipase C (PLC). IAV infection induces oscillations in the cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration of host cells, the prevention of which markedly attenuates virus internalization and infection. The small GTPase RhoA is found both to function downstream of the virus-induced Ca(2+) response and itself to induce Ca(2+) oscillations in a manner dependent on Rho-kinase and subsequent PIP5K-PLC signalling. This signalling circuit regulates both clathrin-mediated and clathrin-independent endocytosis during virus infection and seems to constitute a key mechanism for regulation of IAV internalization and infection.

Abstract
Rho GTPases are well known regulators of the actin cytoskeleton that act by binding and activating actin nucleators. They are therefore involved in many actin-based processes, including cell migration, cell polarity, and membrane trafficking. With the identification of phosphoinositide kinases and phosphatases as potential binding partners or effectors, Rho GTPases also appear to participate in the regulation of phosphoinositide metabolism. Since both actin dynamics and phosphoinositide turnover affect the efficiency and the fidelity of vesicle transport between cell compartments, Rho GTPases have emerged as critical players in membrane trafficking. Rho GTPase activity, actin remodeling, and phosphoinositide metabolism need to be coordinated in both space and time to ensure the progression of vesicles along membrane trafficking pathways. Although most molecular pathways are still unclear, in this review, we will highlight recent advances made in our understanding of how Rho-dependent signaling pathways organize actin dynamics and phosphoinositides and how phosphoinositides potentially provide negative feedback to Rho GTPases during endocytosis, exocytosis and membrane exchange between intracellular compartments.

Abstract
Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) express the high and low affinity receptors to formylated peptides (mFPR1 and mFPR2 in mice, accordingly). RhoA/ROCK (Rho activated kinase) pathway is crucial for cell motility and oxidase activity regulated via FPRs. There are contradictory data on RhoA-mediated regulation of NADPH oxidase activity in phagocytes. We have shown divergent Rho GTPases signaling via mFPR1 and mFPR2 to NADPH oxidase in PMNs from inflammatory site. The present study was aimed to find out the role of RhoA/ROCK in the respiratory burst activated via mFPR1 and mFPR2 in the bone marrow PMNs. Different kinetics of RhoA activation were detected with 0.1μM fMLF and 1μM WKYMVM operating via mFPR1 and mFPR2, accordingly. RhoA was translocated in fMLF-activated cells towards the cell center and juxtamembrane space versus uniform allocation in the resting cells. Specific inhibition of RhoA by CT04, Rho inhibitor I, weakly depressed the respiratory burst induced via mFPR1, but significantly increased the one induced via mFPR2. Inhibition of ROCK, the main effector of RhoA, by Y27632 led to the same effect on the respiratory burst. Regulation of mFPR2-induced respiratory response by ROCK was impossible under the cytoskeleton disruption by cytochalasin D, whereas it persisted in the case of mFPR1 activation. Thus we suggest RhoA to be one of the regulatory and signal transduction components in the respiratory burst through FPRs in the mouse bone marrow PMNs. Both mFPR1 and mFPR2 binding with a ligand trigger the activation of RhoA. FPR1 signaling through RhoA/ROCK increases NADPH-oxidase activity. But in FPR2 action RhoA/ROCK together with cytoskeleton-linked systems down-regulates NADPH-oxidase. This mechanism could restrain the reactive oxygen species dependent damage of own tissues during the chemotaxis of PMNs and in the resting cells.

Abstract
Previously, we reported that repeated oral administration of etoposide (ETP) activates the ezrin/radixin/moesin (ERM) scaffold proteins for P-glycoprotein (P-gp) via Ras homolog gene family member A (RhoA)/Rho-associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase (ROCK) signaling, leading to increased ileal P-gp expression. Recent studies indicate that phosphatidyl inositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] regulates the plasma-membrane localization of certain proteins, and its synthase, the type I phosphatidyl inositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PI4P5K), is largely controlled by RhoA/ROCK. Here, we examined whether PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PI4P5K are involved in the increased expression of ileal P-gp following the ERM activation by ETP treatment. Male ddY mice (4-week-old) were treated with ETP (10 mg/kg/day, per os, p.o.) for 5 days. Protein-expression levels were measured by either western blot or dot blot analysis and molecular interactions were assessed using immunoprecipitation assays. ETP treatment significantly increased PI4P5K, ERM, and P-gp expression in the ileal membrane. This effect was suppressed following the coadministration of ETP with rosuvastatin (a RhoA inhibitor) or fasudil (a ROCK inhibitor). Notably, the PtdIns(4,5)P2 expression in the ileal membrane, as well as both P-gp and ERM levels coimmunoprecipitated with anti-PtdIns(4,5)P2 antibody, were increased by ETP treatment. PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PI4P5K may contribute to the increase in ileal P-gp expression observed following the ETP treatment, possibly through ERM activation via the RhoA/ROCK pathway.

Abstract
Rho-kinase plays diverse roles in cell motility. During neuronal development, Rho-kinase is involved in neuronal migration, and in neurite outgrowth and retraction. Rho-kinase remains highly expressed in mature neurons, but its physiological roles are poorly understood. Here we report that Rho-kinase plays a key role in the synaptic vesicle recycling system in presynaptic terminals. Vesicles consumed by excessive exocytosis are replenished by accelerating vesicle endocytosis via a retrograde feedback mechanism involving nitric oxide released from postsynaptic cells. This homeostatic control system involves presynaptic cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) and a plasma membrane phospholipid, phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphophate (PIP2). We found that application of a Rho-kinase inhibitor, a PKG inhibitor or both, reduced the PIP2 content in Wistar rat brainstem synaptosomes to a similar extent. Likewise, application of the Rho-kinase inhibitor into the calyx of Held presynaptic terminal slowed vesicle endocytosis to the same degree as did application of the PKG inhibitor. This endocytic slowing effect of the Rho-kinase inhibitor was canceled by coapplication of PIP2 into the terminal. By contrast, a RhoA activator increased the PIP2 content and reversed the effect of the PKG inhibitor in brainstem synaptosomes. The RhoA activator, when loaded into calyceal terminals, also rescued the endocytic slowing effect of the PKG inhibitor. Furthermore, intraterminal loading of anti-PIP2 antibody slowed vesicle endocytosis and blocked the rescuing effect of the RhoA activator. We conclude that Rho-kinase links presynaptic PKG activity to PIP2 synthesis, thereby controlling the homeostatic balance of vesicle exocytosis and endocytosis in nerve terminals.

Abstract
Mechanical stress causes filament remodeling leading to myocyte hypertrophy and heart failure. The actin capping protein Z (CapZ) tightly binds to the barbed end of actin filaments, thus regulating actin assembly. The hypothesis is that the binding between CapZ and the actin filament is modulated through phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and how the COOH-terminus of CapZβ1 regulates this binding. Primary neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs) were strained at 10% amplitude and 1-Hz frequency. Dot blotting measured the PIP2 amount, and affinity precipitation assay assessed the direct interaction between PIP2 and CapZβ1. Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching of green fluorescent protein-CapZβ1 and actin-green fluorescent protein after 1 h of strain shows the dynamics significantly increased above the unstrained group. The increases in CapZ and actin dynamics were blunted by neomycin, suggesting PIP2 signaling is involved. The amount of PIP2 dramatically increased in NRVMs strained for 1 h. With a ROCK or RhoA inhibitor, changes were markedly reduced. Subcellular fractionation and antibody localization showed PIP2 distributed to the sarcomeres. More PIP2-bound CapZβ1 was found in strained NRVMs. Less PIP2 bound to the CapZβ1 with its COOH-terminus intact than in the COOH-terminal mutant of CapZβ1, suggesting some inhibitory role for the COOH-terminus. Myocyte hypertrophy normally induced by 48 h of cyclic strain was blunted by dominant negative RhoA or neomycin. This suggests that after many hours of cyclic strain, a possible mechanism for cell hypertrophy is the accumulation of thin filament assembly triggered partially by the increased PIP2 level and its binding to CapZ.

Abstract
Leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor 5 (LGR5/GPR49) is highly expressed in adult stem cells of various tissues, such as intestine, hair follicles, and stomach. LGR5 is also overexpressed in some colon and ovarian tumors. Recent reports show that R-spondin (RSPO) family ligands bind to and activate LGR5, enhancing canonical Wnt signaling via the interaction with LRP5/6 and Frizzled. The identity of heterotrimeric G-proteins coupled to LGR5, however, remains unclear. Here, we show that Rho GTPase is a downstream target of LGR5. Overexpression of LGR5 induced SRF-RE luciferase activity, a reporter of Rho signaling. RSPOs, ligands for LGR4, LGR5, and LGR6, however, did not induce SRF-RE reporter activity in the presence of LGR5. Consistently, LGR5-induced activity of the SRF-RE reporter was inhibited by Rho inhibitor C3 transferase and RhoA N19 mutant, and knockdown of Gα12/13 genes blocked the reporter activity induced by LGR5. In addition, focal adhesion kinase, NF-κB and c-fos, targets of Rho GTPase, were shown to be regulated by LGR5. Here, we have demonstrated, for the first time, that LGR5 is coupled to the Rho pathway through G12/13 signaling.
